IIomhstkad, July 28. The Advisory
Committee on tho Homestead lock-out has
prepared n statement in which It says that
the most evident cliarnct eristic of our time
and country is tho phenomenon of our In
dustrial centralization, which is putting
the control of each of our great national
industries into tho hands of ono or a few
men, and giving these men an enormous
and despotic power over the lives nnd for
tunes of .their employes nnd subordlU'
ntes.
This is said to directly antagonize tho
BDlrit of universal history in its world-wide
struggle after lawful liberty, nnd is com
ing to mean in effect nothing less than
the rikht of employers to 1 manage the
country to suit themselves. The statement
proceeds to point out that the employes in
the mill of Carnegie, Phipps & Co. at
Homestead have built there a town, and
have Invested thousands of dollars of their
savings in the mill in the expectation of
spending their lives In Homestead and of
working in the mill during the period of
their efficiency;
The committee, therefore, desires to ex
press to the public ns its firm belief that
both the public and the employes Afore
said have equitable rights and interests in
the said mill which cannot be modified or
diverted without due process of law, und
mat it is against puuuc policy and sul)
versive of tho fundamental principles of
American liberty that, a whole community
01 workers Bhoulu be denied employment
or BiilTor any other social detriment on nc
count of membership in a church, a politi
cal party or a trades union. It is also
claimed by the committee it that is their
duty as American citizens to resist by
every legal nnd ordinary menus the un
constitutional, anarchic and revolution
ary policy of tho Carncgio Com
pany. Aotices of eviction have been served on
the families who occupy the Carnegie
houses on Shanty Hill. The tenants aro
given ten days in which to move out.
There are between 80.nnd -IS families in
these houses. The Tiien have been on
strike since the mill closed and they failed
to return in response to the notice sent out
by the company.
They have paid their rents right along,
but the company wants the houses for
non-union men and the leases give thu
company the right to eject tenants upon
ten days' notice at nny time. The men
will now bo given the option of returning
to work or being turned out of the com
pany's houses.
Many of the men say this morning that
they will return to work in tho mills
.m uo !mt o4t or. their nomes. una
the leaders of the strikeannounces thnt
rather than be put otrt of their homes. One
quarters will be provided for all the fam
ilies now in the (Jarnegie houses.
THE PINKERTON INVESTIGATION.
No More Testimony lliirdlntha Aeenoy
Will be TuUen.
WAsniNOTON, July 28. Before tho Pint
ertons, Robert A. and William, were ex
cused from testifying before the Congres
sional Committee, Chairman Oates thank
ed them for the evidence" they had given.
Robert Pinkerton in turn thanked the
committeo for its kindness to them and
stated that he wished the committee could
visit Chicago and examine tho books and
papers of tho agency.
Representative Oates will probably make
his report on the Homestead matter early
next week, and it is not likely that any
more testimony will bo taken regarding
the Pinkerton agency unless some new
matter regarding it is brought to the at
tention of the committee.
Robert Pinkerton, in replying to ques
tions put by (,'halrinan Oates, said that
the number of peroous ' employed by the
Pinkerton agency does not exceed 000 In
all parts of the country, including clerks
and stenographers, und the number of
men employed never exceed 800 nt one
time.
Tho only authority exercised over their
tnen'was that of an employer. Their
men were not reuuired to hour arms and
were at liberty to refuse to go to a place
to which they were ordered, if they
chose. 1
JUr. Pinkerton, at the advice of his
counsel, refused to give the contracts with
his men. He said that the request was
made by the Carnegie Company to seud
them about S00 watchmen. His men had
been engaged by Mr. Frick during the
coke strlku in Pennsylvania, when they
sent about ,150 watchmen. They were
sworn in us deputy marshals.
Mr. I'inkurton nald that tho Carnegie
Company wanted 300 men by July 6. The
men were furnished, and came from New
York, Chicago and Philadelphia. They
knew for what they were wanted. He did
not know personally anything about the
barges, but thought they were ordinary
barges used in transportation, He did
not bellevo they were lined with iron and
proof against feinoll flreuniis. Ho would
not have allowed his men to go on them
If he thought they would have been at
tacked. Tho barges were employed so as to land
the men upon the company's property
without causing uny breach of thu peace.
The sole desire was to avoid a riot. There
were about U10 men ou the barges, about
250 Titles, iiOO pistols, ammunition and
nightclubs. About two-thirds of the men
had previously been in tho Pinkerton em
ploy. All were under the charge of F. H.
iliueB. About 1-0 men were sent from
'Chicago, 70 lroui Philadelphia and 120
from New York. All met at Ashtabula,
O., and, went from there to a point near
Youugstown, 0., where they were put on
barges.
Positive instructions were given that
tho arms should not ba given to thu men
until they had been sworn iu by the
sheriff. The men were not instructed to
tiro upon the striker and would not
huve lired upon them had they not been
attacked. It was understood that the
men were going to Homestead with the
consent ot tho sheriff. The Piukertons
had never attempted to Bend an armed
body anywhere.
In twenty years throe men had Un
killed by their watchmen up to who
of the Homsatead affair.
In rrply to a question by Mr. Bofttner;
Mr. Pinkerton said that tho arms used nt
Homestead were shipped from Chicago to
tho Union Supply Company., He supposed
that they were delivered to tho barges uy
order of Mr. Frick. He said that if the
Homestead workers had como into tho
works and tried to put his men out they
would not then havo ued their arms,
Tho men would probably light, using
what is called "night clubs."
Mr. Pinkerton denied the statement
that women had been killed by his men,
and also snid that ho employed women as
detectives.
In reply to further questions, Mr. Pink
erton Bald that he never knew of a strjko
where the labor organizations did not at
tuck and injure non-union meu.
He did not know of a Binglo case where
his men had begun tho trouble, and ho
challenged the labor people to Bbow such a
case.
CARNEGIE TO BLAME.
Work on tho Government Vessels Delnyed
by the Slrllio.
Philadelphia, July 23. A government
inspector nt Cramp's ship ynrd says that
work on tho nnnored cruiser New York
is delayed on account of the armor not
being received from the contractors, tho
Carnegie Steel Company, Limited.
The Homestead plant is tho only one nt
which armor can be mado. Half ot tho
sido armor for the New York lias beon
received but none has been put in place,
beauso it is. so uncertain when the remain
der will come. The vessel is ready for
tho barbette and sido armor, and work
cannot be pushed ahead without it.
The Inspector also said:
"Tho Pirate, which will be launched
next week, will have no sidojor barbette
armor. . The sponsons can be put on any
time after she is launched. The Carnegio
Steel Company has the contract to furnish
this armor also.
"The Bethlehem Iron Company has tho
contract to furnish the armor ior the bat
tleship Indiana. All of her 14-inch diag
onal armor has been recoivod, ana the
diagonal armor is all that can be put on
bofore the vessel is launched.
"The Carnegios have the contract for
all of the armor for the bat'
tleshlp Massachusetts. None of it has
been received, She is nearly ready for tho
diagonal armor, which is put on beforo
launching. If it was expected the ship
could be made ready for it in about six
weeks.
"The armor for tho vessels is contracted
for and furnished by the Government, nnd
the builders havo nothing to do with it
but put it in place,"

THE DEFENSE IS WEAK
-1
Alice Mitchell's Insanity Not
"Kpt Proven.
SHE HAD NUMEROUS FLIRTATIONS.
Important TrMlmony of Freda Ward's
Ilrotlier-ln-TiKW Alice tVa Unntreeted
When Iter Sistor llrnlte Down Utterly on
the Witness Stand,
MEurnis. Tenn.. Julv 23. The defense
is not making as oreditnble n showing in j that they cannot understand that a black
proving Alice Mitchell, insane ns it hoped Ingcanbo cheap at 20c. AVewanttomcct
as to Miss Mitchell not enring for tho so
ciety of young men is discredited by more
than ono nuthority.
Miss Addle Mitchell, a charming look
ing young lady, Alico's sister, nearest her
in ago, when put on tho stand, seemed to
feel her Bister's, disgrace very keenly and
was visibly affected while giving her tes
timony. Her evidence was largely cumu
lative, sho telling other younger Ulster's
boyish traits and masculine likes nnd' dis-,
likes. The cigar box in which Alice had
kept her love letters was identified by the I
witness. The witness was asked to detail I
what took place immediately after the
tragedy. Here sho broke down and wept
bitterly, but Alice was unmoved by her
sister's show of misery. Sho said further
that Alice had made great preparation iu
the way of dress for tho trial.
James Johnsou, a brother of LIHie John
son, swore that Alice and he and Lillie
Johnson went to a picnic and that sho
would havo nothing to do with tho boys
and refused introduction to young men.
William tl. volkmer Is the principal
witness for the State, yet the defense intro
duced him. He is the brother-in-law ot
Freda Ward. It was at his house near
Gold Dust that Alice visited Freda. Ha
saw nothing unusual on the occasion of
the first visit, but ho intercepted let
ters between the two young ladies and
gave them to his wife. He thought Alid
and Miss Johnson were both very fast, as
they lllrtod with anything in the shape ot
a man. tie objected to Alice remaining
longer in Gold Dust, thinking she was not
a lit companion (or r redu.
speaking of Freda's proposed elopement
ho thought there was a man in It, and ho
Btood around that night ready to fill any
person full of buckshot that attempted to
assist the young lady to leave. He finally
discovered tho vaiole plot and promised
Freda he would -viy nothing about it if
she did not attempt to repeat her perform
ance.
Coming back to the flirtation he said
that Alice and Lillie Johnson liirted with
married, as well as with single young
men,
Miss Jo Ward, the dead girl's sister.
also tho victim of n slash from tho festive
Alice's razor, was the next to testify. She
told tho btory of the tragedy us she saw it.
and descanted on Alice s love lor young
men.
The witness explained who Freda Myra
Ward was. She was a fiction of Alice
Mitchell's own mind, and Alice wrote to
Freda under that girl's name. Once sho
wrote to i reda telling her Freda Myra
Ward was dead, and Freda grieved ter
ribly. The myth was supposed to have
ttiedlnjNew orK; but after a time Alice
wrote again to Freda from Chicago, tell
ing her that Freda Myra Ward had not
died, that it was all a mistake.
