Tho Strike at the Carnegie PlRnt-The
Company Claims Full Force Is
Working.
PITTSBURGH. Pa. July a.-The
strike inaugurnted at the Homestead
steel works, of the Carnegie company
on Saturday, has not as yet made any
visible effect upon the operation Of the
great plant. All departments we're run
ming as usual to-day, With full COM
plement of men.
Absolute quiet pervaded Homestead
all day. The strikers are keeping on
the streets and are making no attempt
to interfere with the men on their way
TO the mills, Chief of Police Williams
had Il line OF men stationed about the
works when the men changed turns to-
day, but there was no disturbance. AS
is the custom the works will close down
this evening until after the Fourth Of
July, Work will be resumed at q
O'Clock Wednesday morning. 1t is an
nounced in certain circles that the final
efforts will be made Wednesday and
Thursday, and II the results ore not
favorable the contest can be said to be
at an end as fer as open work ID Gun
cerned. The developments OF the next
three days will be watched with inter-
est.
The company has never for q mo-
ment admitted that even small strike
existed ut Homestead. 1t claims that
whatever troubles resulted in the mills
has come about from about forty-hve
men, and that when the report was cir
cuIn tod that there was likely to be q
strike. more applications were resolved
for new men than was necessary to fill
the vacancies, and that many were
turned away as they could not be em-
ployed.
A representative of the Carnegie
company stated that the time keepers
reported that the entire force In the
Homestead plant was at work last
night. the places OF the discharged
ATnalgamnted men having been filled
from the waiting list.

DIXON GETS DECISION
In Three Lively Rounds With Sam

In Three Lively Rounds With Sam
BoIau, of New York.
LOUISVILLE, KY. July s.-George
Dixon, champion featherweight, got
the decision after three lively rounds
with sam Bolen, of New York. before
the NonpareIl Athletic Association. Boz
Ian was practically out when the round
was concluded. The bout was to have
gone twenty-five rounds. Dixon went
right after his man in the first round.
but Bolnn held his own. The second
saw some warm fighting and the begin
ming of the end OF the New Yorker:
Dixon opened up in lively fashion and
soon had Bolan going. A left swing
sent sam to the floor and he stayed
down nine seconds. The rest did him
little good however, for he came up
RrogRy in the third, and George set
about to finish him. After a few mo-
ment's delay, the colored boy sent IN q
hot right and left on the Jaw and Bolan
collapsed. He again took his full time
TO rise and then came up with pro-
nounced stagger Dixon was waiting
and a neat swing on the jaw with his
left was all that was necessary to put
an end to the bout. Bolnn went down
IN a heap. but the gong sounded before
the limit was counted. The New YORK;
er was out of 1t, however, and the ref
cree gave the bout to Dixon.

To Put Down the Insurrection.
General Otis VIII be sentall
the Troops he Needs.

WASHINGTON, D. c.. July S.-Presl-
dent Mckinley and General Harrison
Gray Otis. who arrived here yesterday
from the west, had an extended con-
ference to-day on AFFAIRS relating par
ticularly to the campaign in the Phil
ippines. They are longtime personal
friends and the opportunity Of discuss
ing questions of Importance In which
they are mutually and deeply interest
ed, was enjoyed by both.
During the afternoon General Otis
took luncheon with the President, sub
sequently went driving with him and
this evening in company with Adjutant
General corbln, dIned with him at the
white house.
Late tonight when asked by repre-
sentative of the Associated Press
about his conference with the Presi-
dent, General Otis replied:
"Really there was nothing significant
Or specially important about 1t. We
discussed pretty thoroughly the situa-
tion in the Philippines and in a remi-
niscent way talked Of Incidents In the
WA- OF thirty years ago, in which we
had part. Beyond that there is little
to be said.
ST may say that the President Is quite
satisfied with affairs In the Philippines
as they are being conducted by Major
General Otis. He has implicit conii-
dence in General Otis and that conf
dence Is not misplaced. General Otis.
who. by the way, is not relative OF
mine, is, in all respects, an admirable
and efficient officer. He combines all
the excellent qualities of the lawyer.
the diplomat and the soldier and l
have not doubt that he VIII prosecute
the Philippine war to a successful con-
clus!on. :,
"The President Is fully determined"
continued General Otis. ito put down
the insurrectIon in those Islands. His
mind is made ut on that particular
ARRANGEMENTS hL )e been perfected to
furnish Major General Otis with all the
men he may need to bring the rebellion
TO q successful issue. The volunteers
who have distinguished themselves as
soldiers have seldom done, are being
brought home as rapidly as possible
They fought brilliantly long after the
contract for their service had expired,
but they fought willingly and without
'-HTsmEiG- somJlHiTrt'- as'-noble pNar ai-
ways hght."
General Otis was asked whether his
conference with the President to-day
had any reference TO the rImors that
he might take place in the cabinet:
"I may say MS to that. replied the
general. declslvely, that not the faint
est suggestion has ever been made to,
or by me, upon the subject by the
President There is absolutely no
foundation fpr the story"
General Otis will remain here several
days and will then go east before re-
turning to his Los Angeles home.

NINE NEW REGIMENTS.
Important Military Commissions at
DIsnosnI of President.

Disposal of President.
WASHINGTON, D. c.. July S.-The
proposed organization of nine volun-
teer regiments will place number Of
important military commissions at the
disposal Of the President. Although
there will be three new brIgades, Ad-
jutnnt General Corbln says It is not
likely that more than one additional
brigadier general will be needed, the
other two being provided for by ohcerS
or that grade now in the army whose
terms OF enlistment are about to ex-
pire. General Grant, who is now IN
the Philippines, Is in this category and
he probably Will be one OF the three
new brIgadler generals. Another gener-
al officer now In the Philippines Is also
available for reappointment to the pro-
VislonRl army. Probably the most I'M
portunt point in connection with the
proposed volunteer organization Is the
Presidents declared intention to ap-
point none but officers OF the regular
army to the command OF the nine new
regiments. Nearly fifty regular army
officers held regimental commnnds dur
ing the recent war in the volunteer es-
tnblIshment and the nine colonels to be
assigned to the new regiments viii be
selected from among that number. The
selection will be based entirely upon
the records OF the officers during the
late war and the nine officers whose
practical work in the field wns most eff
aclent Will receive the appointments.
II Is not unlikely. however, that some
of the most efficient volunteer officers
may be selected for subordinate com
mands in the regiments lnnsmuch as
the decision to appoint only regular
army officers does not apply to posi-
tIonR below the grade Of colonel.

HUNTINGTON. W. Va, July S.-Fhis
forenoon Elias Hatfield killed Dock"
Ellis, at Gray. on the Norfolk & West
ern railroad. The cause which led to
the killing was an old grudge which
has been engendered by Ellis having
captured johnson Hatfield. in Ken
tuclSy, and turned him over to the west
virginia authorities two yeaEs ago:
Hatfield is a son Of Devil Anse, and
a brother to cap" Hatfield. who killea
the Rutherford brothers on election DAY
in 1885. Ellis was one Of the wealthiest
men In the community, and had never
had much to do with the Hatheld-Mc-
Coy feud, but this killing Will pronaply
open afresh the trouble between the
two factions.
WILLIAMSON, W. Va. July S.-The
old Hatfield Mccoy feud, which has
been slumbering for few years, broke
out nfresh to-day when Deputy sherin
II. q. Ellis was killed by Elias HATFIELD
and the two factions are nrming Tor
renewal OF the old time struggle.
A few years ago John S. Hatfield. one
NJ fhe conspIcuous leaders against the
Mccoys was captured gby' Ellis. and AZ
fer friai sentenced TO life imprison-
ment. At that time Elias Hatfield,
brother Of John, declared openly that he
would some day kill Ellis.
The opportunity offered to-day when
Hatfield saw Ellis standing on the rear
platform OF passenger train as It pull
ed into Grey Station, few miles south
OF here. Hatfield secured his Winches,
ter and began abusing the deputy, ana i,
said. 'Now Is US good q time as VIII

questioned, thrust his hand Into his hip
