Strike New s.
I The antagonism of the citizens
workers and Maj or of McKeesport t<
r the Unit«d States Steel Corporation re
sulted in a positive order last Friday,
to dismantle the big W. Dewees Wood
sheet plant and remove it at once to a
site already selected in the Kiskimim
tas Valley, between Vandergrift and
Apoilo. The directors of the Nation
al Tube Company are also considering
the removal of the National depart
ment, the largest of its kind in th
world, to Conneant, Harbor, where
Andrew Carnegie projected his $12,000-
000 tube plant with which to fight J
Pierpont Morgrn and the railroads last
winter.
The combine officials say that Me
Keesport is so saturated with anarchis
tic ideas that peaceful operation of its
plants there is impossible unless with
union men. They say that their pur
pose is to operate their plants to suit
themselves, and that removal to a mor>
peaceable community would soon repay
the loss and expense of effect;;.- the re
movaL
At New Castle, Saturday. President
Shaffer of the Amalgamated Associa
tion was given a wonderfully enthusi
astic reception; but fewer men quit
work that day than either tha Steel Co
or Amalgamated leaders anticipated
and the belief was spreading that the
six thousand men in the Tube works at
McKaesport and as many more in the
Steel works in South Chicago would
not go out.
By Monday it became known that
the Chicago men would not go out.
All plants of Carnegie system re
sumed work Sunday evening.
Employes of the Federal Steel com
pany at Chicago, Joliet and Milwaukee

Gen. Jas, S. Negley.
One by one the general officers of the
Civil War have faded into eternity
nntil, with the death of General Negley
at Plainfield, N. J. on Aug. 7th, 1901,
but few of the Major Generals--we can
recall but Sickles, Howard and McCook
—remain alive.
The funeral of General Negley oc
curred from the old Banm" homestead
on Roup St E. E. Pittsburg la3t Satur
day and was largely attended by his
old comrades and friends.
His body arrived from tlie East that
morning and was taken to the Bauui
house; and lying there in the parlor of
his old home, that afternoon, he looked
but the shadow of his former self— the
magnificent specimen of humanity and
the pride of his army. But few of his
old comrades wonld have recognized
him.
The services over, his casket wae
placed on a caisson- wrapped with a
flag and covered with flowers and pro
ceeded by a number of his old comrades
and followed by the family and frien<l«
in carriages he made his last march on
Earth.
Quite a number of men yet living in
Butler county served under General
Negley. Co. H. of the Col. Sir
well, was recruited in Butler, joined
the regiment in Pittsburg and with the
77th and 79th and Muehler's Battery
formed Negley's brigade, which started
down the Ohio in boats, Oct. 12, 1861,
and disembarked at Louisville. Thin
brigade took part in the campaigns of
the Army of the Cumberland, the
battles of Stone River and Chicka
maugua and was with Sherman to
Atlanta.
Gen. Negley was decended from pa
triotic Swiss "ancestors, who left their
own country during a religious war,
went to Germany and later came to
America. One member of the family
was with General Braddock in his dis
astrous campaign against the French
and Indians at Fort Duquesne. Three
Negley brothers participated in the
Seven Years War and became heavy
land owners in the East Liberty valley.
General Negley was the grandson of
General Alexander Negley, only son of
Jacob Negley, Jr. bis mother's maiden
name was Scott, and he was born De
cember 22, 182(5, at the home of his
parents. The house still stands on
Collins avenue, and is now occupied by
the Society for the Improvement of the
Poor. When his father died ho gave
the boy, then but a few years old, into
the care of his uncle, John Roup, and
in what was the Roup homestead, since
known as the Baum homestead, the boy
was raised. Part of the honse still
standing was built in 1820.
After attending the public schools
and the Western University, young
Negley developed a martial spirit.
Wheu the war with Mexico broke out
he was not yet of age, but he left his
home to join the army, with William
Winebiddle. They were members of
the "Duquesne Greys," which became
part of the First Pennsylvania, and
young Negley made a fine record as a
soldier under General Scott.
General Negley returned from Mexico
just too late to attend the fnneral of his
only sister, Rebecca Roup Negley. In
December, 1840, he was married to Miss
Kate Losey, a niece of Commodore Van
Vorhees; Clifford, Jaines S.. Jr., and
George, three sons of this union, are
dead. Ilis second wife, who was Grace
Ashton of Philadelphia survives bitn,
with three daughters, Gracey, Edith
and Mabel.
During the interim between wars
General Negley engaged in manufac
turing pursuits and became » skillful
horticulturist. When the civil war be
gan he showed himself to l»e an efficient
popular organizer of troops. Even be
fore the war began he zealously sought
to improve the National Guard of the
State, and in December, 1860, four
months before the first gun was fired,
he offered the services of a division to
the State authorities, stating that he
could respond to a call in 24 hours.
On April 18, 1861. Governor Andrew
G. Curtin authorized him to organize
and equip a brigade of volunteers arid
in 10 days two regiments were ready.
He accompanied the third regiment to
the capital a few days later. His com
mand was assigned to the Armv of the
Ohio, and he served in a number of im
portant engagements as brigade com
mander, his regiments l>eing the
Seventy-seventh, Seventy-eighth and
Seventy-ninth Pennsylvania Volunteers.
He earned the rank of Major General
at Murfreesboro and held Owens Gap
at Chickamauga.
After the Civil War General Negley
made rapid headway in the field of
politics. In 186(1 he was elected to
Congress and two years later he was
re-elected. He also served in the Forty
ninth Congress in IW and IW7. At
Washington he aggressively fought for
needed improvements in his district ami
he secured the purchase of a new post
office site and the new postoffiee. His
cousin. Alderman E. C Negley of the
Nineteenth ward, was made postmaster
His efforts also hastened the procuring
of the deep-water harbor at Pittsburg
and general river improvements.
Directly or indirectly General Neeley
was interested in a number of the Rail
road lines of W'-steru Pennsylvania.
He was instrumental in the building of
the Pittsburg & Western railroad anj
later became closely associated with the
late Calvin S. Brice. million dre politi
cian of Ohio in his railway schemes
He was a party to the project of Brice
to build a railroad in China, which was
abandoned on the death of Senator
Brice and the beginning of the Boxer
troubles in the Chinese Empire.
fve of the most popular relics of the
<••. War which General Negley
brought home with him was the
famous white horse Prince. General
Negley got the horse when he captured
its owner, a Confederate officer, who
said as he climbed out of the saddle and
gave up his sword that it hurt him
more to give np Prince than to suffer
the ignominy of defeat. Prince pranced
about the old Baum and Negley fields
of the East End for years.
