THE woRKmEN,s ANSWER.

They Issue Reply to H. @. Frick's
Recent stateIpent.
HOMESTEAD, July 9.-The Homestead
iron and steel workers tonight issued an
answer to the Carnegie company. The
statement says in part: "Frick's inter-
view makes reply necessary in order
that wrong impression of the conditions
may not be received by the public. The
workingmen at Homestead have no de-
sire to dictate the wages they shall re-
ceive, bat see no good reason why they
should not exercise the privilege of dis
cussing with their employers the rate of
compensation. The workmen are now,
as they always have been, prepared to
meet representatives of the company
and discuss the SCALE. If the confer
ences already held failed to bring about
settlement, it cannot be said that
this was the fault of the work ngmen.
Complaint is made that no minimum
should have been insisted upon in the
sliding scale. 1t ia the experience of
iron and steel workers that some pre-
vention is necessary to protect them
selves from being reduced to an ex-
tremely low rate of pay, by the accept
w
the current rates. The introduction of
improved machinery, to which refer
ence is made by the company, displaced
men necessary before the introduction
OF such machinery, and in this manner
repays the ecost of Investment. The out
put of the mill has always been consid-
opportunity offered by the workmen to
NJ -
able rate, but when the employers re-
fuee to engage in discussion with the
employees on the matter, all hope OF a
just settlement is lost. M
''An attempt has been made to lead
the public into the belief that the NUNS.
b5r Of men affected by Che reduction are
few. II is necessary to impress on the
public mind that three distinct pro posi-
tions are in dispute. While all the
propositions, do not OBJECT all OF the
Homestead workmen, few of the $500
employees escape without being af-
fected
"It is stated by the company that it
is not their desire to reduce their work
men below others. The cost of produc-
tion to the Carnegie company at Home
stead is decidedly in favor of the
company as compared with other mills
of that character. There can be no
legitimate reason why the Carnegie
company should deny to the Homestead
workmen the conference where things
of which they complain could be ana
lyzed, and if found unjust, made right.
If argument and honest reasoning were
substituted for reserve and coldness, as
seen in the company's present attitude,
can there be reason to expect an end to
the deplorable state OF affairs?
"There are none who regret the
lamentable occurrences OF the past few
days than those whom the Carnegie
company charge with having been in
strumental in bringing them about.
We are willing to allow the public to
judge, after the evidence is all in,
whether the charge is true. Until then
we prefer to forget our recent sad expe-
rience."

The Men Prepared for Long Siege-The
sheriff Poweriess.
PrrTsBURG, Pa, July 9.-Everything
was blissfuily quiet at Homestead this
morning. The was not ripple toidis
turb the quiet of the night. The danger
now lies in the fact that some untoward
circumstance may start fame that
will spread into conhagration without
warning. The leaders recognize this
and are bending their efforts toward re-
storing authority to it's regular chan
mel. The greatest danger lines in
the fact the fact the men seem less
inclined to listen to their leaders and
tend to follow their own ideas. The
mass meeting yesterday refused to agree
to let the authorities take possession OF
the mill, and some e&athe men consti
tuted themselves committee to bounce
the reporters. The sheriff did nothing
today. He says: ut is impossible for
me to get a posse. Even if l get 500
men, they will be resisted. The strik-
ers say this themselves. They will
only give up possession of the mill con-
ditionally and l, as sheriff, could not
take it that way. Just what l will do,
| cannot say. [ positively will not take
men up there to be killed."
Much excitement was created in Nc
Keesport this morning when a detach-
ment of the Homestead guards passed
through, armed with Winchesters, in
the direction of Reynoldstown. 1t is
supposed that they were bound for
Home point, up the river, to watch for
the rumored arrival of Pinkertons and
non union men.
The committee from Homestead,
which had conference with Governor
Pattison at Harrisburg last night, re-
turned this morning. The members,
while saying they are not at liberty to
report the results of the conference in
detail, express themselves as thorough
ly satisfied with the result OF their mis-
sion. They are convinced that the gov
ernor will not call out the militia, and
intimate the probability that he will
try and bring aoout an unders landing
between the men and the Carnegie
company.
In addition, when their cash gives out
they have unlimited credit at the stores.

THOSE CITY BLANKETS
How They Were Taken From the Jail.
and Subsequently Recovered.

How They Were Taken From the Jail,
and subsequently Recovered.
About 8 o'clock on Thursday night, as
Captain Bradley was embarrassing his
horse from his buggy at the police sta
ton, Joe Sullivan, who has been acting
as trusty at the City Jail for a few days,
suddenly appeared and wanted to assist
him.
The Captain told Sullivan that he
needed no help, and shortly afterward
detected him signaling to another man
back of the Jail yard.
The other man started up town with a
bag OF something and was stopped by the
Captain, who asked him what he had
"Oh, I've got some blankets" said the
man, who proved to be James Welch
Let me see those blankets" said Brad
ley, and he took them into the station to
md that they were the property of the
city and belonged at the jail.
Both Sullivan and Welsh were ar
rested and yesterday morning they were
arraigned in the Police Court, Welch on
charge Of petty larceny and Sullivan
for felony.
The charge against Sullivan was made
for felony after the officers looked him up
in the records.
1t was found that he had been con-
h4CLGu LLI6o uluer6nU times fOr petty
larceny since 1850. At one time for steal
ing chickens, again for robbing the fish
market and a third time for burglary,
which was reduced to petty larceny.
In court, City Attorney Hart first called
Alex Dunn, Clerk of the Police Court,
who turned to the minutes of the court
for April "A, 1890. showing that Sullivan
was convicted then and sentenced to I5O
days in the County Jail.
Ben True, the railroad officer, identified
Sullivan, whom he had known for eight
years.
Captain Bradley testified to the facts as
given above OF his arrest of the two men,
and Chief Rodgers identified the blankets
as the property of the city.
Welch testified that he came to town
very recently, and never met Sullivan
until the night Of the theft. Sullivan told
him he had some blankets and wanted
him TO sell them, and treated him to
drink. They then went to the City Jail
where Welch says Sullivan gave him the
blankets in a sack.
Sullivan refused to make a statement,
and was promptly held to answer by
Judge Cravens, who fixed his bail at
81, 900.
1t is supposed that Sullivan has sold
blankets before from the Jail, as they have
been missed at different times.

GOVERNOR BOOTHS WIDOW.
Judge Johnson Allows Her $425 a
Month for Maintenance.
Other Estates in Course of Probate
Administrators Appofnted-One
Distribution Ordered.

Considerable probate business was
transacted in the Superior Court yester-
day.
In Judge Johnson's court the applica-
ton Of Mrs. Octavia Booth, widow of the
late Ex-Governor Newton Booth, for
family allowance Of $500 modth was
taken up. Attorney c. II. Dunn repre-
sented Mrs. Booth, while Frank d. Ryan
appeared for the residuary legatees. The
petition for an allowance was not con
tested, but Mr.. Ryan argued that the
amount asked for was too large; that, as
the money would come from the proceeds
of the estate in general, his clients would
be obliged to contribute their pro rata,
which he did not think would be Just.
Mr.. Dunn argued. on the other hand,
that the law provided that liberal allow
ance should be made, and that it cOntem-
plated that the condition Of life and the
society in which the family moved should
be considered. Mr.. Dunn considered
that in view Of the fact that the estate
was appraised at nearly half a million
dollars, $500 a month was paltry sum
and no objection should have been made
! to it. Judge Johnson said he considered
1t the duty OF the court to make liberal
allowance, taking into consideration the
manner in which the family lived. He
thought, however, that 5000 was exceed
| ing liberality, and fixed the amount at
$40, the allowance TO take effect from the
date of the death of Governor Booth.
In the same court letters Of administra-
ton were issued to a. Logan on the
estate OF the late George Duncan. APP
praisers were also appointed to ascertain
the value OF the estate.
Mrs. p. Potter was granted letters of
administration on the estate OF her de-
ceased son. She was required to give
bond i'll the sum of 81 800.
In the matter of the estate of Mrs.
Jennie NJ. Anderson, deceased, letters of
administration were issued to ). b.
Smith, upon his agreeing to give bond
of 500.
The final account Of the administrator
of the estate of Alice Leonard, deceased,
was settled, and the estate was ordered
distributed to the heirs.
In Judge Catlin's court William F.
Neely was granted letters Of administra-
ton on the estate of Martha Neely, At
torney William Sims appearing for
Neely. His bond was fixed at g, 500.

beckoned to Wieger to follow him from
the room the prisoner hurried toward the

In the corridor he gave way completeIv

THE BEEF MARKET.

Plenty of Cattle All Over the Coast
This Season.
The beef market becomes an important
problem at this season OF the year. The
range cattle have been sorted over and
the best ones shipped to market or put
out to feeders. Between the time of
gathering beef from the outside herds
and taking in grass cattle in early spring,
the wholesalers have to secure a supply
and keep them where they can put their
hands on them at a days notice. The
markets of San Francisco and Oakland
consume about 10000 head of beef cattle a
month, and the other coast towns about
1000.
With the present warm rains to soak
up the hills, the outlook is for grass beef
from the southern counties to be six
weeks earlier than usual, and there
ought to be plenty in by the middle OF
March. A tour of the feeding grounds
shows about 10000 head of prime beet
waiting to be called upon for the coast
markets. Nearly half OF it is in Califor-
