The lams Caae in a Nutshell.
War is savagery, and military foroe is
merely brute foroe tempered by discipline.
The summons of the military to Home
atead via a summons to war. It was not
the draes parade picnic that many of the
aoldiers and all the lawless at first sup
posed.
It was war; aotual war against the law
less usurpation of property rights; against
riot and Woodshed; against anarchy;
Igainst assassination, and the stern laws of
war were invoked to preserve peace, prop
erty and life by intimidating the lawless.
The lawless element whose bloody vio
lenoe oalled the troops to the field has a
large iuftision of anarchy; the anarchy
thftt robs, i—aminiton ind (uen tho bomb
as its means of rerenge. In the ranks of
the was an elment of anarchy; and
the only safety to all was in the promptest
and sternest suppression of every sem
blance of anarchy in the military.
When private lams ostentatiously
cheered the assassin who had attempted
the murder of Mr. Frick it waa an open in
vation to mutiny and revolt in the regi
ment, and no greater inspiration could
bare hem given the hordes of alien Anar
chists that surrounded the military ready
to get the taste of blood from any leas oow
ardly ***** themselvee.
Colonel STKBATOS exhibited all the wise
discretion and geusrons charity of a true
soldier when he called his regiment into
line, summoned the mutinous and murder
inspiring private in front of the ranks, ad
monished him of the gravity of his orime
and invited him to declare his fault a sud
den boyiah impulse and retract it. This
was met with the defiant repitition of the
crime, and ths commanding officer doubt
leee believed that the swiftest and severest
punishment was a military necessity to
maintain disoiplineand the pnblic peace.
It is from the stand-point of the laws aud
exigents!ee of war that Colonel STKIATOK
is to ba judged; and unless he wantonly
and maliciously abused his authority, he
is entitled to commendation from every
lover of law and order. He was summoned
to war; ha was oonfrontod by hidden,
treacherous, murderous elements within
his oommand and confronting it; and he
can be justly judged only.by the laws of war
administered in an extreme emergenoy.
The appeal to the civil oourts would
bring np only the question Whether Colo
nel HTUATOB honestly exercised his dis
cretion in the performance of his duty as a
soldier. If he did he cannot be made an
swerable to the civil authority. A military
eourt of Inquiry oould oondemn and dismiss
him; cenldfeprlmand him for abuse of au
thority or oould approve his action; and it
would be well for the military servioe and
wall for the sesnewhat eonfosed public o
pinion, to have a military inquiry into the
ease.
Abort all, let it not be forgotten that
the troops at Homestead an in actual war
service and that, with anarchy and assas
sination threatening peace, property and
life, the stern laws or war most be para
mount to all ordinary theories of sentiment
or humanity.—Philadelphia Timet.

A Clarion Co. correspondent of a Pitts
burg paper g«U off the following in regard
t* the pnblio comments on the Homestead
aflhir
If any olaee has exceeded another in
crank utteranoee except the Anarchists
themselvee—l believe tne preachers bear
off the palm.. The Time* of Jnly 18 oon
tains a sermon in whioh appears this sent
ence:
"What wonder that these men strike for
their rights. What wonder that the name
of Carnegie nas beoome disgusting to the
peat mass of right-thinking people, a stench
in the nostrils of all free born American
oitisens." The 21MM of yesterday oon
ains extracts from two sermons preached
ast Sundsy, in whioh reference is made to
the lams oaee. In one it is stated:
"The minister pointed to the oase of
Private lams as an example of barbarism,
saying that Sitting BuH, in the days of his
erjr, was not guilty of inflicting a pun
ment so cruel."
Th* other "expressed the belief that the
punishment ot ex-Private lams was not
too severe, and that it was justifiable ia
the ftoe of existing circumstances," and
"we believe that the best judgment of our
educated oitisens will aoquiesoe in this de
cision."
The poor sinner, desirous of knowing the
truth shout this matter, would, after read
» these two sermons, be in the condition
he darkey when he heard a negro
preaoher oloee his sermon with these im
pressive weeds:
"Brethern," said he, "there are two
paths; the bread and narrow path that
leads to destruction; the straight and orook
ed path whioh leads to damnation. Whioh
will you takef
"In that oase," answered the darkey,
"dis nigger will take to the woods."
The Cosur D'Alene Trouble.
The feroe conflict at the Homestead
Steel-works was quickly followed by an
outbreak among the miners of the Coeur
d'Alene district in Idaho. The Coeur
d'Alene mines are noted for their large out
put of both lead and silver. They are sit
uated in Bhoehone County, Idaho, about
eighty miles from the city of Spokane, and
are penetrated by branohes of both the On
ion Pacific and Northern Paoitio railroads.
The group is made of about a dozen mines,
whioh produee from 100 to 400 tons of ore
per da/ each. The ore is reduced to
oonoentrates in mills situated at conven
ient paints, and these oonoentrates
me shipped oat of the country to |
smelting establishments at Denver, Salt '
Lake City, Omaha, and other places. About
3000 men are employed when the mines
are in fttll operation, and the annual pro
duct is worth folly 18,000.000. It is said
that theee mines yield one-eighth of
tftthe entire amount of lead consumed in
Pitted states. •
Up to a few weeks ago the miners em- 1
ployed belonged to the Miner's Union. In
J many the mined Rhnt down because of a
dispute in regard to rates with the rail
roads. "When the trouble with
the railroads was adjusted, and the mine
owners were ready to resume operations in
April last, a schedule of wages wasjpropos
ed which reduced the pay of certain class
es of men. The schedule continued the
wages of regular miners at $3.50 per day,
but proposed to cut the wsges of shovellers
carmea, and ordinary laborers down to $3
per day.
This was the schedule in force up to Jan
uary, 1891 when the Miners' Union de
manded that all men employed be paid
(3 50 per day. The demand was acceded
to by the mine-owners; but when they pro
posed to reopen the mines in last April,
they claimed that the low price of lead
ana silver would not permit them to con
tinue to pay the new schedule. The result
was that the members of the Miners' Un
ion refused to work, and threatened to net
permit non-union men to enter the mines
to take their places. The mine-owners set
about to secure non-union men, and suc
ceeded in obtaining a considerable nam
ber. Early in June several of the mines
were enabled to resume operations with
non-union men labor. There was constant
irritation between the union men and the
new men brought into the mines. Many
threats were made, and the situation be
came critical. Two non-union men were
driven out of the town of Burke, where
are situated the Tiger and Poorman mines.
They suffered great privations in crossing
the mountains, and oarely escaped with
their lives. This was followed soon alter
by an application belore the United States
court* at Boise City, the capital of Idaho,
for an injunction order restraining mem
bers of the Miners' Union from committing
acts of violenoe. Accession to the non-un
ion forces oontinued to arrive and the sit
uation grew more critical. The Governor
of Idaho came upon the scene, and made
an investigation for himself. Soon alter
his return to the capital, he made a request
or i nmm Ktrrlnn ootid trOOOS to the
mines to prevent an expected outbreak.
President Harrison did not think the situa
tion warranted interference on the part of
the army. In this he was supported by
the Representatives in Congress of the
State of Idaho.
Early Monday morning, July 11th a
large force of union miners made an attack
on the men employed by the Gem Mine in
Canon Creek. The men employed by the
Gem "Works were partially armed, and
made some resistance, but were soon over
powered and compelled to surrender, four
or five of them being killed in the conflict.
A short time afterwards a box-car loaded
with dynamite was sent down in front of
the concentrating works of the Frisco Mine
and exploded, almost destroying the mill.
These acts of violence precipitated a con
flict throughout the entire district. The
onion miners everywhere took np arms,
and marched from one camp to another,
oompelling the non-union men to surren
der, and enacting an agreement from the
owners of mines to discharge non-union
men and send them ont of the country. An
absolute reign of terror then ensued. Ur
gent appeals were made to the Governor of
Idaho for assistance. But the State mili
tia was whelly inadequate. The President
was to send United States troops to
the scene of action, and leaned immediate
orders to that end. Troops were hurried
from Ports Sherman, Walla, Vancouver,
Spokane. Missoula, and Keogh, the whole
aggregating over 2000. These were con
oentrated near Warden on .Thursday, the
14th instant, under command of General
W. P. Carlin, of Fort Sherman.
Martial law was declared by the Govern
or of Idaho throughout the entire Casur'
d'Alene district General Carlin first en
tered Warden, and took possession with
out resistance, and then established bis
foroes in other mining.towns in the district.
It is believed that no further serious
trouble will occur. JOHH R. RSAVIS. —

The Critchlow Brothers.
The names of the Critchlow brothers,
Sylvester, Stephen and Albert, have been
associated with rioting and violence ever
sinoe the first labor troabl'es at Homestead
in 1882. During that year and after the
settlement of the strike Albert Critehlow
and a crowd of strikers met John Foley, a
workman employed in the steel-works, on
the road almost in front of Foley's home.
The latter was located in the company's
grounds near wheTe the Canegie hotel now
stands.
It was Sunday evening and Foley was
just returning from milking his cow.
Critchlow and his companions began abus
ing Foley, calling him vile names, and
were preparing to make a united attack
upon the lone individual when Foley drew
a revolver and ordered them to stand aside
and let him pass. Albert Critohlow, who
held a heavy stone in his hand, raised it for
the purpose of orushingFoley's skull, when
when the latter fired, the ball taking effect
in his tassailant's abdomen. Foley then
went and surrendered himself to Special
Hanion, of the mill police,
and the latter had great difficulty in get
ting his prisoner ont of Homestead alive, as
a'mob surrounded the house to which Han
lon had taken his prisoner temporarily, ,
and demanded that Foley be surrendered
to their venegance. Finally the prisoner
was sneaked through a rear door and thence
to a skiff lying at the ferry landing and
taken to Brown station on the Baltimore
A Ohio Railroad. Critohlow recovered
from his wonnd and in the trial that fol
lowed Foley was aquitted of the charge, as
it was proven that he had acted in self de
fence. Albert Critchlow was subequently
killed by a train on the Pittsburg A, West
ern railroad near Butler.
Daring the Homestead strike of 1882 the
deputy sheriffs and others were more in
dread of Sylvester and Stephen Critohlow
than any of the other leaders of the strike.
They were both known far and wide as ex
cellent marksmen with either shotgun or
rifle.
In 1885 Stephen Critchlow was convicted
of pointing firearms at and threatening to
take the life of Constable William Brown
•f Homestead, now the chief of police of
the Carnegie Steel Works. In 188 C Syl
vester Critchlow shifted his warlike opera- j
tions to the Duqaesne Steel Work 9. On
April 20th of that year the Allegheny Bes
semmer Steel Company, owner of that
plant, filed a bill in equity against Sylv es
ter Critchlow, William Dnnn, John Mc-
Crory and others in common pleas court
No. 2 asking that they be enjoined from
interfering with, menacing the lives and
otherwise intimidating the workman of the
company. It was further alleged that the
defendants had stationed themselves on
tho roads leading to the steel-works and
endeavored by force and otherwise to pre
vent the free entrance and egress of the
company's employos. Judge Ewing grant
ed an injuction, which was served on all
defendants and heeded by the majority.
Critchlow, Dunn and McCrory still kept up
their work of intimidation and an attach
ment for contempt of court was issued.
They were all fined heavily, and Dunn and
McCrory, Hawkins, Rothrauff and others,
who had suffered this penalty, desisted
trom the outrages; but Sylvester Critchlow
still kept it up and another attachment was
issued for him, but he managed to run a
way and escape arrest, and according to
the court records was never punished for
this second offence. He was at that time
one of the striking workmen at the Dn
queane mills, but after tho trouble was set
tled be was never permitted to again go to
work. Since then ho has been employed
in the converting-mill of the Homestead
works, and after tho arrival of tho troops
at Homestead was oue c f the most officious
of the late self-constituted officers in
Homestead. He had a special job prevent
ing any soldiers who visited Homestead
trom "distnrbing the peace."—Pittsburg

HOMESTEAD.
On Thursday more regiment* left,
and that evening but three, the sth. 15th ]
and 16th. with Batter}' B. and the Sheri
dan troops were left at Homestead. Gen.
Snowden turned the command over to Gen.
Wiley, and left for Philadelphia. There
were rumors of the strikers taking possess
ion of the heights across the river and pre
venting workmen coming in via the "Little
Bill."
Sylvester Critchlow's hearing was com
pleted before Judge Magee that day, and
he was held for murder without bail and
sent back to jail. Two clerks in the works
saw him shooting the Pinkertons.
Supterintendent O'Mara arrived in Pitts
burg that night having in charge Fred
Mollick, whom he had arrosted at Long
Branch.
On Friday Berkman was given a hear
ing inside the jail. He acknowledged try
ing to kill Frick, and he was held on sev
eral charges.
Gen. Snowden was interviewed upon his
arrival home and was reported as follows:
"It is reported that yon may be made a
defendant in any prosecution that may be
brought in the lams affair ?"
•So I haye read in the newspapers, but
I know nothing else about it. I think I
have explained myself perfectly in that
matter. When the offense of Private lams
was reported to me I ordered that he be
disgraced and drummed ont of the regi
ment. It was not my province, nor was it
necessary for me, to write an essay in
structing Col. Streator bow a soldier guilty
of such a orime should be disgraced. That
matter ceuld safely be left in Col. Streat
or's bands.
"As to the nature of th 9 punishment I was
ignorant of that until after it had been
inflietod but I have my own opinion as to
the character of the punishment that
should be meted out to a soldier guilty of
treason in time of actual revolution;
"My position in the matter can bo readi
ly explained. Until the punishment httl
been inflicted and Col. Streator'n report
tamed in to mo I knew nothing of it
When I read the facts I returned it and or
dered the man's discharge.
"The matter has been greatly exagger
ated. lams was not strung up by the
thumbs. His bands were tied up over his
head, but he could reach.the ground with
his feet. He did not become unconscious.
The action of Cols. Hawkins and Streator
were such as men take in the time of war.
In active service a Col. can shoot a private
if he fails to do his duty. The solonels are
ordered to preserve discipline and they are
allowed great latitude.
We were at that time doing martialduty.
The community was in a state of revolu
tion. Anarohy was rampant. An inde
pendent government had been set up and
an armed censorship of the press establish
ed. Murder had been dono, and men as
sumed authority whose hands were red
with blood. The condition in a word was
one of war. lams was given every oppor
tunity to clear himself, but instead of ac
cepting them be repeated and emphstiied
his remarks in the presence of the regi
ment. That was giving counsel to the ene
my, In a word, it was mutiny."
Col. Cullinan of tbo major general's
staff, who came home with him from
Homestead, had no hesitation about ex
pressing himself regarding the situation
out at the troubled district.
"Tho disorderly element Is pu the run,"
said the colonel, "O'Donnell hag disap
peared, find I believe that the strikers gen
erally are demoralised- They have been
particularly insulting of the sol
diers havo had to bear many indjgnjtiosat
their hands.
I "There are tbrco regiments of infantry,a
trco JJ of cavalry and a batterv of "artillery,
and they a.e spepgh to got away with the
strikers in case of a struggle. The gat
ling and other guns of the battery are on a
bluff overlooking the town, and the very
first shot would drop a shell into the head
quarters of the association. Evsry soldier
on the ground has stood untold abuso from
the strikers of late, and should a collision
arise I am afraid they win; 14 get to work
without awaiting for offers frouj superior
officers."
"What is the opinion entertained by you
and your brother officers regarding the
lama case T"
"If lams had got bis deserts." was the
reply, "he would have been tajjen out and
shot. His punishment was not a bit to se
vere. His suffering was very brief. lam
astonished that his punishment should
have met with <-■*> much disapproval, but
it is evident that everyone doe«i not know
the serious nature of tho circumstance*.
Why,in the western part of the state there
is moro sympathy e xprcssed for lams than
tor Frick, the victim of a deprived would
be assassin.
"lams may congratulate himself upon
getting off so easily,
On Sunday, Chaplain Adams of the 16th
Regiment, preached to tho nine hundred
men in the mill in the morning, and that
afternoon an orchostra furnished a sacred
concert.
Talking to it newspaper man at Washing
ton D. C. Monday, Judge Oaten, of the
Homestead committee said: i have gone
carefully over the testimony taken at
Pittsburg, Homestead and Washington,
and have tried to he as impartial as a judge
upon the bench. As I told you a few days
ago, in the Homestead matter it is im
possible, as far as I oan see, to recom
mend any legislation that will remedy
such troubles. I have taks;j the facts that
have been given to the committee and
have drawn my inferences as to the cause
of the trouble. I find, and Ido not hesi
tate to say so, in my report, that both sides
were to blame. I try to point out how
helpless the Federal Government is to
provide legislation by which such differ
ences can be settled.
"The Supreme Court has decided again
and again that Congress has no power that
does not hanf upon the Constitution, and
there is nothing in the Constitution that
permits Congress to interefere with indi
vidual rights that are as old as the Magna
Chartu. I refer particularly to the right of
the individual to make contracts of bis own
will aud according to his own tastes.
That is undoubtedly the question involved
in the Homestead trouble. There was no
violation of coutract there. It was merely
the inability to niak« a contract. How
can the Federal Government interfere in
such a case and say, 'Here you must ma»e
such and suih a contract.' That would be
a direct blow to individual liberty that has
existed since the barons tore the Magna
Charta from the hands .of Jting John. I
try to make this matter clear in my repot t.
"I have dealt with the arbitration feat
ture, and am compollod to say it is a failure.
I can suggest nothing better than the pres
ent voluntary arbitration, which docs not
seem to work very successfully. As soon
as you attempt by law to compel arbitra- i
tion, then you practically set up a court 1
and the thing is no longer arbitration.
"Compulsion destroys all features of ar
bitration and in an encroacbm nt on the
individual liberty of men guaranteed by j
the Constitution.
"As I said before, tho report on the
Homestead trouble is more eomment than
anything else Among other things I at
tempt to show how difficult it is for the
Stato to interfere between labor and capital
and come to the conclusion that it is whol
ly a matter for the individuals to settle be
tween themselves. I have not shown the
report to my colleagues on the committee
yet, and cannot say whether it will meet
their views or not. If It does not, I shall
have it published as my own opinion.
"As to the Pinkerton matter, I am my
self undecided as to whother we have any
constitutional right to make legislation
that will prohibit the employment of their
armed watchmen or gaurds. If the balance
of the committee seems to think that we
have the right to do so, we will not be
long in recommending a bill. I think the
committee is unanimous in tho opiuion
that the maintaining of a private force by
the Pinkertons and others is a very bad
thing, and should be stopped.
"Whether the Federal Government can
prevent thom from being carried from one
State to another is a different thing, and I
leave that question to tho coininitteo.
This is a matter jn which tho States have
a perfect right to act. 'fhey can pass laws
j that will prevent the importation em
ployment of armed Pinkerton men within
their borders, as Indiana. New York and
some of the Sew Kngland stateshave done.
If wo reccommend no bill we will undoubt
edly call the attention of the various Leg
islatures to the remedy that is within their
power."
On Monday the working force* in the
mill was increased 150 including 27 of the
old men, and during the day about 300
men called at company'sjoflice to withdraw
what savings they had deposited there,
pursuant to notice recently given out by
the company. Payments were made from
the paymaster's window, and as fast as the
men received their amounts they walked
out of the gate. There was on deposit
with the companv when the present trouble
first started about $150,000 belonging to
the workmen. The company paid interest
on those deposits at the rate of 6 per cent.
Loans were also made to the men upon the
same rates.
The rumored break in the mochanics
and laborers lormerly employed in the
Carnegie works at Homestead, which was
billed to occur yesterday, did not material
ize as extensively as many had predicted.
A prominent worker said last evening that
it had been about decided to remove the
pressure that has been brought to bear on
those classes, and let them do as they
pleased. With this was an intimation
that in such a contingency the Amalga
mated Association would consider itsell
released from the duty of caring for them.
Chairman Thomas Crawford indignantly
denied that there was any intention of let
ting the mechanics go or not caring for
them. .., . . .
Treasurer Curry said last evening: As
Superintendent Potter puts it, to-days
developments have broken the backbone
of the trouble. Those who have come back
to-day are not all laborers. Among them
is the most important Amalgamated man
here who did not become conspicuous in
the strike. He applied for his position as
foreman and got it. He is on the day turn.
The one who was foreman on the night
turn on that job has communicated with us
and he will probable be here to-morrow.
Sixty-eight men came to us on the Tide to
day, including some old men who wanted
the boat ride up from Pittsburg. Prelimi
nary work was commenced in the beam
mill to-day and Wednesday we expect it
to be ill full operation. The 10-inch and
3°-inch mills will be on double turn in a
few hours and the 33-inch will also be
started. , ... . .
Last evening was the expiration of the
time in which tenants of company houses
must vacate. All are out but two of three
famlies in which there is sickness, and
these the company will not proceed against
while they aro ill. .
At a large meeting of Anarchists m New
York that evening, one speaker said:
"We do not meet here to condole with
the poor workingmen of Homestead, but
to glorify the hero who sold his life for the
Peukert. the leader of theAuton
oiuist, stood up aud ye|Jed a disjointed de
clamation. His voice ran from a whisper
to a shout, and he screamed to please the
crowd. "Berkman's heart,'' he exclaimed,
"was in the right spot. His example will
be followed by hun.lre ds. It was a noble
C *Then e> Emma Goldman, the toothless
queen of the reds, got up, dressed in a
cheap blue and white striped gown, wear
ing eyeglasses and her hair awry. She be
gan: "I hope yon will all bo quiet now.
There are detectives here and spies of the
police ready to kill tfao speakers. &he
did not look frightened, however- "Am
erica is no better than Russia, she went
on. "It js worse; it is worse; it is choked
with sham republicanism. The report of
Berkman's shot will be heard around the
world and echo through the ages. His
bullet did not kill, but others are being
molded and they will fly with surer aim."
Miss Goldman spoke iu German, and did
better than any of the other orators of the
evening. .
Dr. Merlin, an Italian Anarchist, who
edits Solidarity, spoke in broken English.
He said it was necessary to combat capital
with crime.
Frit 2 Oerter, who shares the tiny apart
ment of Miss Goldman in common with
several other rods, stood at the door, hat
in hand, and took all tho pennies the frow
sy hearers had not spent tor beer. After
all had gone hut he and Miss Goldman,
they counted the return.?- Ninety-eight
cents, including all—bogus, mutilated and
foreign coin—was tho rgsult. The col

Thirty of tho old employees at the Du

On Tuesday 300 men arrived at the works

were also applying for work at the Du

At Washington, Tuesday, the report of
Judge Gates in the Homestead affair was
"turned down" by his associate Democratic
members of the Committee, who want to

DUNLAP—In this place, July 29, 1892.
James Dunlap, Esq. aged 85 years.
According to the history of our county by
Waterman and Watkins. Mr. Dunlap was
born in Butler on April 18. 1807. He was
a son, it is stated, ol James Dnnl»j». »
lawyer who practiced law here in early
days for a short time, and then went to
Natchez,sMississippi, where he died after
having been U. S. District Judge for some
years. The early days of Mr. Dunlap were
spent about Bonnie Brook, Summit twp.,
going to school at what is now Stephen
son's Mill, and afterwards at the old Acad
emy in Butler. Ho studied surveying with
the late David Dougal, Esq.. and followed
surveying as a business all his life. He
was skillful and accurate as a surveyor,
and perhaps no man has traced more land
lines, or had more knowledge of the
original tract lines of this county than had
he. Ho was County Surveyor for 0 years.
Mr. Dunlap lived in Butler for the last
thirty years or so, and served as school di
rector for many years. He took a
great interest in school aifairs, and under
his direction mainly what was known as
''The Commons" was laid out into lots and
sold for. school purposes, the large school
honse on Jefferson street being erected in
part from the proceeds of the sales.
In private life Mr. Dunlap was known
as upright and honest, living a pure life as
a man and citizen. His funeral was large
ly attended on Sunday last, particularly by
our older citizens. He leaves a widow and
three children surviving him. Rev. Oiler
of the Presbyterian Church conducted the
funeral exercises.
