At Homestead last Thursday night an
attempt was made to destroy the Mansion
House, at which a number of non-union
mill-workers were boarding, by using dyn
amite. A cartridge was thrown into the
house, through a door or window, and its
explosion tore out the front ot the house,
and wrecked the furniture, etc. The men
were asleep upstairs, and nobody was in
jured. The Advisory Committee promptly
disowned the affair and offered a reward
for the perpetrator.
