SCABBED BY THE BULLETS. Fired From the Hirer Shore by the locked-Out Mill Workers. A PINKERTON MAFS OPINIONS. Captain Wishart Outlines His Ixperiences D urine the Cruise. ll'CDKRT I1AD BEEN UNDER FIRE BEFORE The Little Bill lay alongside the wharf yesterday afternoon. The number of curi ous -visitors who parsed through it and ex amined its bullet scars would have returned a. handsome revenue to Captain Itogers, the owner, if an admission fee had been charged. There is little beautiful about the Xittle Bill at ordinary times and her pres ent appearance is somewhat more desolate than usual. J. H. Eobinson, a Pinkerton man of Chi- Off.ct INSlCJ 10 FENCE ?IPG,E X YAro AKC StfHTRY cago, big and burly, with a slouch hat, a r powerful frame, and a stern expression on a i lace that mav at one time have been frank and good-humored, sat on the lower deck. He treated his recent trip to Homestead and back as a mere routine matter in his work, and spoke of other and hotter occa sions when he had been under fire. He ex hibited one hand minus a finger as part evi dence of his long service under the Pinker tons. Proud of His Employers. He is proud of his employers and speaks of them as possessed of millions of money, In control of thousands of men,and not easily rebuffed. He was strong in his opinion that thestrikfirs would be made to regret their actions before long and that with a tree hand the Pinkertons would be able, ready and willing to avenge their losses. Bullet holes and imbedded bullets are in conspicuous evidence all over the boat. The panes of glass in the pilot house and cabin windows are broken in many places and three or four partitions have in some instances been penetrated by the same bullet. The steam whistle was punctured by one missile and the main steam pipe was struck but uninjured by another. The men on board who had made the trip were comparing notes with one another and thanking their stars that all but one of their number had come on nmniured. Captain "Wishart, who was in command of the Little Bill throughout its adventurous voy age, was too tired to give a detailed account ol the occurrences. Had Been Under FJre Before. This was not his first experience under fire, as he said it was his misfortune to be in charce of the tow which brought the militia to this city in 1877. He asserts that on the ionrney to Homestead "So shot was fired by the Pinkerton men until two of their number had been wounded. There were ST' -j.1F W-5," not more than twenty rifles among the two barge loads of men. The fire seemed to be directed almost exclusively at the barges until the Little Bill lett them. But on the journey to Port Perrv and back the Little Bill "had to run the gauntlet of a regular fusillade from both sides of the river for a mile below Home stead. The reports were more frequent than you ever heard on a Fourth of July. I was "in the pilot house, and that seemed io be the principal target for the shooters. There was only one man wounded on board uid that was John T. McCurry. I was imply obeying my orders and performing he work for which I was hired. I asked o questions and considered It none of my usiness to inquire into the character of my irgo or the disposition to be made of it ter it left my hands at its destination. " A Trlrran of the lute War. John T. McCurry was wounded in the Toin on the Little Bill's return from Port Perry toward Homestead, and brought to Pittsburg on board the steamer, and taken from the wharf by an ambulance of the Alleghenv General Hospital In an inter view yesterday morning he said: "My name is John McCurryandl am 64 years old. For 17 years I was on the Allegheny police force. I have been nnder fire before, as I served daring the war in Company B, Sixty - Second, Pennsylvania Volunteers, and was wounded at Fredericksburg in 18C2. I was employed temporarily by Cap tain Itogers last night. The "workmen opened fire on the detectives; I have my God tomeet, and if I am to die now, I am willing to take oath that the workmen fired first, and that the Pinkerton men did not shoot until some of their number had been wounded." WANTED THEIR GUNS. Captnin Corbett and His Men Hare a Lively Experience. ' Captain Corbett, of Company K, Four teenth Regiment, got a taste of the fight yesterday. He had a detail practicing at the rifle range at the salt works. There were not over ten men in the party, and all . T T y 1, , S,' ,' ,. " Q -- - - S - i. m I I I l l . V - - - v C; L--J J - were in uniform except Captain Cor bett, who is over six leet tall and built like an athlete. AVheu his detail fired at the targets a squad of strik ers suddenly appeared and had the soldiers surrounded in a moment. "It looked for a short time as though we were in, for a fight," said the Captain, "and the men loaded their guns, and stood on the defensive. When I explained that we were only target shooting our visitors cooled down. They thought, I gness, judging troni their actions, that we came out to assist the Pinkertons. A little later I heard some remarks among them abiut taking our guns, and finally they be came so bold that I saw we would have to make a stand or they might attempt to dis arm us. I cautioned the men to be on the lookout for trouble, and then notified the strikers tha we would kill the first one among them who tried to take a gun. This seemed to check them for a mo ment, and before thev could do anything a train came along and we got aboard without wasting any time. For a few minutes I was almost sure we wot Id not escape with out bloodshed, for I was determined to keep the guns at all hazards. WHAT A MODEL BAKGE IS. The Two Boats Which Took the Pinkerton Men to nompstend. The two barges which carried the Pink erton men to Homestead lormerly belonged to the Tennessee Navigation Company. They were sold as the property of that com pany by United States Marshal Harrah Jat week. They were well supplied with cots and bed clothing. Tables were arranged alone the centre of each and in the aft end were ronghly constructed kitchens. All the necessarv utensils were supplied, in cluding ice chests. A model b irge is built somewhat differ ent from the ordinary coal barce, and, lu- WriTW toopHoirs, Hfur Totvft, steadof being open, is covered on the top and side. They are about 125 feet in depth "nu -u lu wiain. A Bloody Pillow From Homestead. Officer Moore yesterday afternoon found a pillow in the Monongah'ela river near the Point bridge. It was covered with blood, and it is supposed came from Homestead. He took it to No. 8 Police Station. Ax opportune friend will be found in Dr. D. Jayne's Expectorant, when racked by a severe cold, and the many lung or throat affections which sometimes follow. This old remedy has met the approval of two generations, and is to-day as popular, safe and effective as ever. Mr. "W. M. Terry, who has been in the drng business at Elkton, Ky., for the oast 12 years, says: "Chamberlain's Cojgh Kemedy gives better satisfaction than any other cough medicine I have ever sold." There is good reason for this. No other will cure a cold so quickly; no other is so certain a preventive and cure for croup; no other affords so much relief in cjses of whooping cough. wrhsu b.
