Blacklisted Jiy the Company and No nations For the Future From tUm Society Lawrencevllle Men lilt. Homestead, Nov. 21. The great strike at Carnegie's Homestead steel works has been declared oil. After a five months' struggle, which for bitterness has probably never been equaled in this country, the army of strikers finally decided to give up the fight.

This action was taken at a meeting of the lodges of the Amalgamated association at Homestead yesterday afternoon, the vote standing 101 in favor of declaring off the strike and 91 against it. Among those preseut at the meeting were Vice President Carney, Secretary Kilgallon, Treasurer Madden and David Lynch, of the advisory board. The officials addressed the members and iu plain words told them the strike was lost and advised them to take steps to better their condition. The remarks met with considerale opposition, but when the vote was taken it showed a majority of ten in favor of declaring the strike off. Those who were in favor of calling the strike off were jubilant while thoso who were against it were badly put out.

Most of the latter were men who were obstinate and many of them either had applied for positions in the mill and had been turned down or felt sure that their names were on the company's black list and they could not get positions. A member of the advisory board said yesterday that he had been trying to get the strike declared o1f for some weeks, as he knew it was lost, and it would have been better for the men as a great many more of them could have gotten their places back. Those who cannot get back aro in a bad fix as the relief funds will bo stopped and man' hundreds of them have nothing to live on. The people in Homestead, especially the business men, are highly elated over the declaration to call the strike off, for if it had continued much longer it would have ruined the town. Many business houses have fallen into tho hands of the sheriff since the strike has been on.

Ilusiness is expected to resume its normal condition soon. The Homestead strike has proved one of the most disastrous in tho history of the country. It originated from a reduction in wages in the departments where members of the Amalgamated association of iron and steel workers were employed The hitch was on what is known as the sliding scale. It is a scale which regulates the men's wages by the market price of steel billets. Nearly every mill in this vicinity signed the scale, including other mills of the Carnegie company.

At the refusal of the firm to sign the scale for the Homestead mill, a lockout occurred by the Amalgamated association and they were joined by the mechanics' laborers, who struck out of sympathy only, their wages not being reduced. The strikers drove non-union men out of the mill and adopted military discipline. The story of the bloody fight with the Pinkertons on July 0, the subsequent riotous proceedings and tho calling out of the National guard and its departure after three months' duty is too well known to repeat. For six weeks the mill has been running almost as well as before the strike, but until within tho last week the strikers have steadfastly refused to admit defeat- The news of the action was received with dismay by the strikers in the two Lawrcnceville mills of Carnegie's. These men were sympathy strikers and went out when tho men at JJeaver Falls and Duquesno struck.

The Duquesne men gave up the strike in three weeks and the Heaver Falls strikers decided to go back The Lawrcnceville men, however, were steadfast and had no intention of giving in. They are now in the position of striking for no cause. They are very angry at tho Homestead men and will probably declare the strike off to-morrow. The strike at one time involved nearly 10,000 men and the loss in wages will reach it is said, in the neighborhood of $2,000,000. Then there is the immense loss to the firm, which cannot be estimated, but which conservative people put at least double the amount lost by the men in wages.

To this can bo added nearly 500,000 paid to the state troops and to the cost to the county of Allegheny for the riot, treason and other cases, growing out of the strike. The attempted assassination of Chairman Frick of the Carnegie company in also indirectly credited to the strike. FISHERMEN DROWNED. Six Poor Fellow Perish While Taking lit Trwls. Portland, Nov.

21. The schooner Edith M. Pryor arrived here to-day and reports the loss of six men whilo taking in trawls off Matinicus. Tho lost men were: William Demmilo, Martin, Butler, Joseph Hanlon, William Goodwin, Davis Merrow, all of Gloucester, Mass. Two other men were with those lost, but they were afterwards found on the island of Matinicus.

Nebraska 1'rairle Fire. Omaha, Nov. 21. A special from Newport, says: One of tho worst prairie fires Rock county ever witnessed started to-day while the wind was blowing a hurricance. The fire is supposed to have started from a spark from p.

farm house one mile east of lias-sett, spreading three or four miles wide, sweeping everything before it. Tho damage will be probably from $10,000 to 15,000. Edward Gimber aged 63, of Jefferson-ville, was killed by his horse running away, dragging him with hU foot in the stirrup. between the time she saw the vile crawl- I ing things and the screams that she let go, string and all, she thought she saw the doors of Keeley's open to receive her, and conscious of her own abstemiousness and antibibulousness she believed the curse had come to her from the third or fourth generation gone. The door had closed behind her, and she was well into the center of the room, near the bed, when a snake glided across the floor and disappeared under it.

Then a lizard and a big beetle barred her passage to the door. Next a big turtle on its back, opened its jaws, as she thought, viciously, and pawed the air in a vain effort to get upon its feet. What was she doing all this time? Why, she was standing in the middle of the floor, every muscle paralyzed save the vocal ones. A locomotive tooting for a cow to get off the track was behind the distance pole when Susan let loose a yell. Then there was a fall, a squirm, a gurgle and all was still, while the bugs entangled themselves in Susan's hair and the snakes kissed her cheeks with their forked tongues.

Now was the appointed time for the rescuer to come, and he came, fie picked up the reptiles 'and the bugs an 1 the rats, and unwinding them threw them like dead thinss upon the bed. The cause of all this trouble was Mr. Dick Trumbull, a traveler for a New York toy house. He had had a customer in his room, and for his benefit had set the machinery inside the varmints going, and it had not run down when he escorted his visitor down stairs. The:) Susan came in.

Chicago Inter Ocean. A Man of Many Melee. The story that an eminent bordor leader and hero, Captain Hatfield, of the West Virginia line, who escaped nil the bullets of the McCoys during tlio Tug Fork tug of war, which delugetl some of our Kentucky soil with a very bad article of blood several years ago, had passed in his checks during a poker game in the wilds of West Virginia is indignantly denied by the friends of that gentleman. They assert that Captain Hatfield is a reformed man and no longer exposed to the casualties of feuds and poker games. The W'lliamson (W.

Va.) New Era, which makes a small circle of light in the dense darkness of the Hatfield section, refers to the reported death of the gallant hero and says: We can most emphatically deny the above, and will state that Captain Hatfield has been an invalid for the past six months from the effects of a wound received when a boy. We understand that he has professed religion, and that no poker games have been played in his house for some time. It is unfair to even such men as he to circulate reports as the above without any foundation. Louisville Courier-Journal. George Meredith's Son.

The marriage of George Meredith's only son to the granddaughter of Sir George Elliot is an event that touches at once the literary world and the world of society. Mr. William Meredith inherits much of the intellectual brightness and force of his father, but none apparently of his father's literary gifts at least 1 do not know that he has been guilty of so much as a magazine article or a poem in a penny newspaper. He has entered the less flowery but more fertile field of science, and is an electrical engineer of good promise and performance. His best man was a gentleman, Professor Vernon Boys, F.

A New Geographical Fault At the annual meeting of the British Association for the Advancement of Science, Dr. G.

C. Knott gave a report on earthquake phenomena in Japan. Among effects of the recent severe earthquake were mentioned the depression of a valley by about nineteen feet for a distance of thirty miles thus forming a great geographical fault together with the destruction of mills, bridges and towns, and the curving of a railway line running along an embankment and bridge in the path of the earthquake. It is stated incidentally that in many earthquakes though not in this one -oil is overturned, and by catching tire causes more damage than the earthquake itself. Forgot Ills Military Doty.

Lieutenant Colonel Villiers, deputy adjutant general at Winnipeg, has been suspended by Major General Herbert for absence from his post without leave. There is something approaching a grim joke in connection with this suspension. The colonel, who i3 of rather mature years, recently married a charming young lady much his junior, and the event appears to have excited him so much that he went off on his honeymoon without going through the necessary form of obtaining leave of absence. Ottawa Cor. Montreal Gazette.

Rental of tbe Highland Deer Forests. Some of the Scotch papers have been calling attention to the continued absenteeism of Mr. Winans, the American lessee of the highland deer forests. His shooting territory in the north extends practically from sea to sea, and for this ne pays an annual rental of over $25,000. But for five years past neither Mr.

Winans himself nor any one on his behalf has over this great extent of country fired a single shot. Tbe Camera as a Wedding Present. The kodak has reached the dignity of a wedding present.

He is fireman on the D. R. Q. Railway. Mrs.

Salome Whitcomb died at her home 1029 Delaware street, last Wednesday evening of old age. She was the mother of S. S. and A. H.

Whitcomb and of Miss Julia Whitcomb. She was born in Maine in 1S14 and had long been a resident of Lawrence. A wide circle of friends mourn the death of a truly good woman. Fred Basset's trial was concluded Tuesday afternoon and the jury was out until midnight. Its verdict was guilty of deadly assault under circumstances which would have constituted manslaughter in the fourth degree had death resulted.

The case was ably conducted on both sides, Alex Mitchell and J. W-Green representing the State and Judge Norton and W. W. Nevison the defense. Frightfully Stabbed.

A serious stabbing affray occurred Sunday night. As Prof. Geo. Sommers, the musician, was coming home to his room on south Massachusetts street with his room mate, J. S.

Tipton, they heard a big row going on up stairs in the Deichmann building adjoining. Naturally they stopped. In a few moments Ben Johnson came rushing down sttarsand going up to Sommers asked him if he wauted "to take up the matter' of which Sommers knew nothing. Johnson was drunk and at once stabbed Sommers in the left siae, inflicting a dangerous wound. It that Johnson with Fred Hale and Jack Delahuuty had been iu the rooms of the Dalene sisters, two notorious youug women, and then had a drunken row.

The girls had sent for their father and when he arrived a free fight followed. Johnson has been in the police court several times and is a tough character. He was arrested and is in jail waiting the outcome of Sommers' injuries. The Dalene girls were fined for disturbing the peace. Tuesday Delahunty and Hale were arrested on complaint of Dalene charged with deadly assault.

They were put under $1,000 to appear for hearing tomorrow. Prof. Sommers is a highly respectable and quiet young man, and the unprovoked assault of the drunken Johnson was a dastard, iy act. PERTINENT PERSONALITIES. Sly Die: Directed at Discomfited Republicans.

Y. World TRIUMPHANT DEMOCRACY. The People Have Turned Down the Party of Monopoly. The next president will be a democrat. Grover Cleveland is elected.

The people have triumphed over the plutocracy. Men are stronger than money. The "hidden and abhorrent forces" of corruption have not prevailed over the intelligence "and virtue of the voters. The election has proved to be a landslide, an avalanche, a cyclone, a tidal-wave everything that typifies irresistible power. The overtaxed, insulted, defied people have risen in their might and overwhelmed the republican party.

The voters have entered final judgment upon the verdict twice rendered by them in condemnation of the republican policy and practices. The issues in a national election have never been more thoroughly debated or more generally understood. The will of the people must now become the law of the land. To defy them further, as the republican senate and administration have done for two years past, would be moral treason. It is a gTeat victory, well and worthily won.

The democratic party displayed the courag'e of its convictions in its nomination for president. It wanted Grover Cleveland as its candidate and it nominated him. It believed in its principles and boldly declared them. Courage and honesty have won. Long live the republic! N.

km PREPARING HIS REPORT. dearly 8200,000,000 Required For Next Tear When a Decrease May Be Ex-' pected -Explanation of the Deficiency? Washesgton. Nov. 22. There appears id be more than usual interest, attached to the forthcoming annual report of the commissioner of pensions for the reason that the pension appropriation figures conspicuously in the annual budget of the government.

It has been pretty rell understood for some time past that the estimates for the next fiscal ear would -show a large increase over any previous year. This -expectation was based on the fact of the large issue of pensions during the year consequent ti recent pension legislation, which admitted to a pensionable status a very large number of soldiers who were not pensionable under the former laws. In a few days the report of Gen. Eaum will be completed and a full statement of the condition of the pension office will be presented. The statements have been made that the amount that will be required for pensions during the next fiscal year will nearly each the enormous sum of 5200,000,000.

The work of compiling the figures, are, however, sufficiently advanced to show that this estimate is in excess of the actual requirements. Since the passage of the disability billj there has been a rapid increase in the amount needed to pay the pensions. For the year 1889-91 the total appropriation on account of pensions was about Last year there was an increase to $144,000,000. But, as Gen. Raum will ttate in his annual report, this amount fell short of the actual demands by about $18,000,003, so that there is a deficiency of that amount.

Congress will be asked to make an appropriation of about $180,000,000 for the coining fiscal year, about $18,000,000 of which is an anticipation of an increase of that amount over the actual expenditures of the last year. It is the judgment of Gen. Raum that while this amount is likely to be increased in the next year or two, yet he feels confident that the maximum limits are nearly reached. It is argued that the great bulk of the pension appropriation at present is txscd iu making first payments carrying arrears, and therefore, as soon as the great rush of applications under the disability act is over, a rapid decline in first payments will occur. It is understood that the first payments last year aggregate over $30,000,000, which covered the back pay in the 311,000 cases allowed.

AN ERRATIC COMET. Slela's Comet LjosIiijj Its Head and Its Light Growing Fainter. New Yoke, Nov. 22. The following letter from Prof.

Swift, of the Warner observatory, is published: "The Biela comet was seen Saturday evening at the Warner observatory for the fourth time. It has, since its discovery, moved but little and it is increasing in size. It is approaching the earth directly, or nearly so. Although very much larger, it is certainly fainter than when first seen here. It is safe to pre diet that it will increase so greatly that in perigee it will become so faint as to be invisible.

It is making a faint effort to throw out a tail, but as Iiiela's comet has always been a tailless comet it will hardly depart from its usual habit. As the comet has not been seen before in forty years, though it has a six and six-tenths year period, its present path may differ considerably from its former path. Statements that it or its tail will strike the earth are premature. It has been a mystery where this formerly well behaved comet had been hiding for forty years, and now its unexpected return may teach us something about cometary astronomy. This comet is some 2 degrees southwest of the great nebulae in Andromeda and is very slowly moving in a southwesterly direction.

It was discovered by Edwin Holmes, of Xiondon, November 6. VFIll Obtain Full. Insurance. Nebraska CiTY, Nov. 22.
