HOMESTEAD ONCE AGAIN
{ Excitement Over Recent Ac-
tion of Carnegie Workmen.
DID NOT STRIKE BUT QUIT WORK"


The Incident Was the Outgrowth OF the
Adoption of Improved DIachInery-Re-
cent improvements In This Department
Practically Doubles the Output. with
Fewer Men.
PITTsBuRG, May 3.-The recent reduc.
tion Of the wages Of some twenty-five
men who struck, OF as both they and the
firm prefer to call IL, quit work at the
Carnegie Homestead steel works. hs>
caused considerable excitement among
the employees, and it is said, much incon.
venience to the employers.
The men who were employed in the
place of the strikers are unskilled and
the results are unsatisfactory. Il is also
stated that the example set by the
strikers will shortly be initiated by a
number of others.
The Incident was the outgrowth of
the adoption Of improved machinery.
The strike occurred among the heaters,
crane men, tongsmen and others en-
ployed in the 33-inch mill, where the re-
cent Improvement practically doubles the
output, with fewer men.
The adjustment Of wages and
number Of men proved unsatisfactory TO
the latter who did not share in the
benefit Of the Increased output.
EIhe extensive improvements I'm the
Carnegie plants is causing much un-
easiness among the mill workers in
general. They fear that II may become
impossible for their employers 20 com
pete with the Carnegie without cutting
wages very close.
This feature will very likely prove the
stumbling block when the time arrives
for the arranging Of Amalgamated as
