the Scene.
Special TO THE MORNING CALL

HOMESTEAD, July 1S-The town is very
peaceful. and has been so since last Friday.
The belligerent feeling that has been so
long dominant has subsided, and no talk of
sanguinary character is INDUCED in. The
fight against the Carnegies Is being con-
Quoted on another and more peaceful line.
The Amalgamated Lodge of W0rkmen
at Carnegie's Union Mills met this,
morning and resolved TO stand firm in the
strike, and rendered the Homestead men
both financial and physical assistance.
There is disposition TO secure the aid and
active sympathy of all lahoring classes.
The railroad men have been worked upon,
and there is a report that they have agreed
not to handle any of the products Of the
Carnegies so long as it is manufactured by
non-union workers. The possibilities of a
strike in that direction are not altogether
visionary.
The railroad men, however, deny the
truth of the rumor that they will refuse to
handle freight for the Homestead mill
There is difficulty in getting at the real
situation. TIE strikers say nOn- union men
cannot be found in sufficient force to start
the mills, while the company thinks there
viii be little difficulty in getting all the
men it wants. The confidence Of both sides

100 Swedish workmen for the mills. and if
this is so the men are now at the mills.
Hugh OD0nnell, the leader OF the strik-
ers, has gone East His mission is not gen.
eraily known, and he would not state his
destination.
Two brothers named Mcconnell, English
men, who worked as foremen in ;he Home
stead mill, have not been seen for three
weeks, and the l0cked-0ut men believe they
have gone to England TO engage non-uGion
men TO take places In the mill. One of the
Carnegie f0remen was spoken to about the
matter, and treated it with ridicule, saying
there were plenty of nOn-union men in this
country, and that part of the works would
be started by this afternoon.
dozen of the best educated, most con-
SeTvatye Of the locked-Out men at Home
stead left for the East this morning with
great secrecy. 1t is believed they have
gone to labor with lot of Belgians said TO
be on the way 10 take the places of the
Amalgamated men.
At midnight an unveriied rumor was cur
rent that the steamer Little Bill, which
tOwed the Pinkertous into Homestead and
precipitated the trouble, had more success
fully accomplished another dangerous mis-
Little Bill brought up 12O non-union men,
who were safely landed behind high fence
at the works.
Late tonight scout, who had been sent
through the mill, reported that there were
no nO1-uniOn mechanics inside the fence
and the story about the boatlOad coming i'm
must nave been rumor. The rumor that
imported labor Is coming from Europe was
taken up, but little attention paid TO it.

New YORK, July 1S,-Edmund Yates

of the papers that the Prince of Wales pro-
poses to attend the autumn maneuvers
which take place In Hungary in Septem-

the second week in September. when he is
going to Scotland on a long visit to the Duke

probable that in the course of the autumn

Edinburgh and the Duke of Augustenberg

One OF the most frequent com panions of
the King If the Belgians In his Ostend
walks is miliiary-loOking man, who bears
such an extraordinary resemblance TO the
late Emperor William Of Germany that
everybody turns to look at him. o. the
Flemish coast he is only known as Count
Won Tecklenburg. but he is really Prince
Alexander OF Prussia, the first cousin of the
creator of United Germany. He lives
in perfect iDcOgntO at Villa Alice, with a
small but cOngenial suite. Although Prince
Alexander is very wealthy. he enjoys the
amu>ements of the coast and takes most of
his meals unreeognlzed at a restaurant in
cosy little hOtel known as Nemrod.

Gladstone is TO be Financial Secretary at
the Treasury, place to which a salary of
92OOO per year Is annexed. and it has i'm
mense advantage, not involving re-
election. Gladstone saved his seat in
Midlothian only by an igHOmipous
surrender TO the miners on the
eight-hOur question. They have been
made to believe that their member is in
favor Of an eIght-hour bill, but as this i'm
preston has been conveyed TO them more
by private assurances than by public
pledge, it will be indeed strange IL Glad
stone does not manage to shuttle out not
very creditably of that position which lie
now occupies.
While Gladstone was guilty of fragrant
tergiversation. Colonel Waughope frankly
refused 10 give in to this fad of The miners
and his straightforward conduct unques-
tlonabiy lost him the election. Every one in
Midlothian knows very well that if Colonel
NaughODe had promised to support the

many hundred votes. Gladstone and his
friends unhesitatingly rpsorted to every
species of electioneering dodge in order 10
gain votes.

HOMESTEAD, July 1s.-The tension be-
tween the workmen and the military is in
creaslng. There are many irres ponsible,
reckless men in town. mostly with some
sort of arms and an untoward event might

priation Of $1,000, 600 having been disagreed
to by the Senate.
The notorious McGarrahan claim, that
has been pending before each Congress for

to Ca'fornians. Washington people gener-
ally regard IT as grand Swlndle. 1t was
rushed through the House to-day under
suspension of the rules, Loud aud Cutti ng

OF Congress does not settle the case but
merely refers it to the Court of Claims for
