The HOMESTEAD STRIKE

Pittsburg, Pa, July 81 The
strike inaugurated at the Home
stead 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 running as
usual today with a full compile
ment of men. Absolute quiet
prevailed in Homestead all day.
The strikers are keeping off the
street and are making no attempt
to interfere with the men on their
way to work. Chief of Police
Williams had q line of men sta
toned about the works when the
men changed turns today, but
there was no disturbance.
Az is the custom, the works
will close down this evening until
after the Fourth of July.
Work will be resumed at z
o'clock Wednesday morning. 1t
is announced 10 certain circles
that final efforts will be made
Wednesday and Thursday and if
the results are not favorable the
contest can said to be at an end go
far as open work is concerned.
The developments of the next
three days will be watched with
interest.
The company has never for a
moment admitted that even a
small strike existed at HON estead.
1t claims that whatever trouble
has resulted in the mills has come
about from about forty-five men,
and that when the report was cir
culated that there was likely to be
strike, mere applications were
received from new men than were
necessary to ill all vacancies and
that many men we're turned away
as they could not be employed. A
representative of the Carnegie
Company says that the time keep
ers reported that the entire force
in the Homestead plant was at
work last night, the places of the
thirteen discharged amalgamated
men having been filed from the
waiting list.

WHEELER COMING SOON.

Washington, July 2.-General
Wheeler will receive orders this
week to 60 to the Philippines.
His particular assignment will be
determined when the War De-
partment has heard from Gener al
OTIS. Secretary Alger said today
All that l can say about Gen
Wheeler at this time is that he has
asked to be sent to the Philip
pines. What service he may per-
form there will depend on Major
General Otis, from whom the de
partment expects to hear early this
week on this and other matters.
Secretary Alger said that re-
ports received from General Otis
today showed that there were DOW
only 5000 vo unteers in the Philip
pines, which expect to come home
as soon as transports could be had
to bring them.
