on the streets. In the event of slow
movement they ride right into the
crowds with their batons appraised
and generally the loiterers fall down
and step on each other in their haste
TO get away. The mounted cops think
nothing OF riding into store and
picking out some man they have
spotted and turning him over to a
local police oficer
TREAT EN- ROUGH" 10 THE Po-
LICE MOTTO.
Treat 'em rough. might be the
motto of the mounted policemen on
duty In the mill districts. The sole
aspiration OF these men il TO obey
orders.
They have been ordered 10 dis
perse all gatherings Of three persons
or more in a public place. And they
do il.
Naturally, the tactics OF the 60
called "CossaclSs' Is resented by the
people who run, consciously or un-
consciously, counter to the law. Thore
Is tenslty OF feeling in every COM
munity one passes through that can
be felt. The stranger looks for some
thing TO happen every minute and
frequently he Is not disappointed.
The Borough Police and Coal and
Iron Police are almost as unpopular
AZ the Mounted Police. Their duties
and activities will be dealth with In
another article.
Closely guarded by the police au-
thorities, the Homestead plant, the
Edgar Thomson plant, the Duquesne
plant and the Clarion plant OF the
United States Steel Corporation were
functioning yesterday and last night.
Foster admits that as long as these
plants produce his strike Is not trav-
elling anywhere in particular. He
must win in the Pittsburgh district
TO win elsewhere. II he loses here tho
A. =. OF L. effort 20 organize the steel
industry must be written down a. a
gigantic failure.
STRIKERS MAY STAMPEDE BACK
TO WORK.
The question Is, how is he going TO
win--or try to extend his operationsH
Undoubtedly he will continue to gain
recruits from the ranks OF unskilled
labor, but he stands in daily danger
Of a stampede Of strikers back to
work.
Thus far the tactics Of the strikers
have been confined TO persuasion
and friendly visits to the wives Of
loyal workmsn, with information that
II Johnny keeps on working there will
probably be a Job for Joe Bzywyszki,
the undertaken. In thiekly settled
sections these neishborly visits and
intimations have proved quite suo-
eessful.
However unless Foster can aBitate,
his personally conducted strike can
not go forward. and a strike which
does not completely tie up an indus
try must so forward or else 1t will
20 backward. There is no such thing
us standing still II success Is to be
achieved. That IS why the Steel off,
cials and the police authorities are
sleeping with one eye open at night
and zealously and completely dlsor-
ganizing every gathering OF three
people OF more on the streets or pub
lie places In the Pittsburgh district.
Foster, in conversation with report
ors on Tuesday, referred several times

downtroddon children in the stee
towns, was in Homestead when tho
