-GIVEN A NERVOUS SHOCK.
Tlie Striker* Turned Out Itcatly for An
other Fight. ^
Homestead, July 7.—Homestead was
given a nervous shock about midnight.
It being reported that a special train was
on the way from Pittsburg, filled with
men coining to take tho place of the
strikers. The guards bail been taken off
lmlf an hour before and only half tho
usual force of watchmen were on duty.
The railway moil said that they knew
of no special train coming. The re
port grew and soon it wan said that
two trains were coming, ouo cast und one
west Tho electric light whistle blew
sharply. That was a signal for the peo
ple
An inquiry was made at the works ss
to who ordered the whistle blown. En
gineer said that a roan rushed in all out
of breath and shouted: "The blnckshcep
are coming, blow the whistle!" The su
perintendent blew and then got his gun
and stepped out.
The effect of the blowing of the whis
tle was soon seen in the crowd of men
who rushed from every house and ev
ery street corner. Shots were fired at
the ground to attract attention. Many
of the men were armed with revolver*
and billies and about one In ten carried
a gun. Nobody seemed to know any-*
thing definite about the affair, and more
persons were seeking information than
securing it. The men were tolled off
by their leaders to watch various points
oud ail strangers wire closely watched.
The people were nervous und excited.
It was some time before the crowd
calmed down and many remained on
deck.

adopted without, objection.
Mr. McC reary of Kentucky called up
the conference report on the diplomatic
und consular unproprialiou bill.
The report wo* opposed by Messrs.
Blount, Butler, McMilliu, Holman und
ttiithwaite, tin* opposition being aguiimt
the appropriation of $03,000 for the pay
ment of th© share of the United States
for the expense of a preliminary survey
for an intercontinental railway. The
opposition prevailed and the conference
report was rejected—yeas 104, uays 140.
Mr. Oates, from the committee on ju
diciary, reported back a resolution for
an investigation iu to the character of
the employment of Pinkerton forces at
Homestead, Pa., with an amendment
providing that, ifl tlie investigation to
gether with the investigation ordered
by the resolution adopted be not condud-1
ed before the adjournment of congress,
live sub-committee of the judiciary com-
inittec-^'ving the inquiry in charge may
■it during recess. Though there was no
objection to the investigation there was
some jealousy among the members of
he committee on juoiciary and tho
ominlttee under the lend of Mr. Tnrs-
should conduct the Inquiry, and some
!*nd blood wan manifested. The labor
committee under the lend of tyr. Tarn-
ney of MisHoitri won the first victory by
securing the reference of the resolution
to that committee, but the victory was
short lived and hr a gallant fight the ju
diciary men regained their lost ground
and finally routed the enemy and the
originnl resolution was adopted, putting
the examination into the hand* of the
judiciary committee.
The confeifcnc© report on the Indian
appropriation bill was presented anil

STILL ANOTHER MAN.
The President Notv Favors Bena'or
Proctor for Chairmen.
Washington, July 7.—It in stated here
tonight upon good authority that the presi
dent and his advisers nre favorable to
the election of Senator Proctor of Ver
mont as chairman of tbe Kepuhlican na
tional committee, aud that it is altogether
probable that la- will be selected. The
president boa received frequent press bul
letins during the day over the White
House wire from Pittsburg about the riot.
He feels considerable interest in tbe state
of affairs, and it is said seriously Con
cerned at the grave turn which the sit
uation has taken. Up to the time of Ids
leu ring this afternoon he had not been
officially advised of-the riot by uuy of
the state authorities.
Hen. Schoticld said this afternoon that
no appeal bad been made to the military
authorities to aid in auppressiiig tlu
nula at Homestead, and he did not think
it would be necessary. He said that tbe
state military bf Pennsylvania was a must
efficient organization, aud that It would be
an easy matter to eoncentrat. at least
8,000 thoroughly n-Uslite and well discip

ON A LAW PLANE.
Howling Takes Ihe Place «r Argument
In Carolina.
Edgefield. 8. CUniy 7.-<8peeisl.>-
Tbe political feeling in South Carolina
rending ta el max, and the opposing
factions of the Democracy refused to lis
ten to each other the record of intollcr-
auee was surpassed here today at tbe
home of tbe two gubernatorial candi
dates. Tbe howling down of ex-Govern-
or Sheppard at Orangeburg laaS Tues
day was nothing in comparison, and tbe
meeting t the most dsgracrful Hint has
ever been held in th state. Uutenaut
liovrnor Clary secured a gisx) hearing,
but when C«L lotwn-nee who
is the special bete nuir of the Tiiimsnites,
attempted to spi-sk, h was shut off by
constant nsults slid interruptions that
lasted for all bnt ten minutes of Ids timid
his conduct enraged the 1-ousciv nines.
When Ihe Tllnisntte ebainnan onnoune-
<d that he would introduce one who
would knock the stnita out of Y'ounluns iu

mortal man could have been heard after
that. They sent a representative to the
-hairuiau and told tint that if Youmana
tas not allowed to continue his sp«veb
(ioveruor Tillman should not b» heard.
The two f net ions then howled against
each other anil against time. At linn*
it was a surging mob and several neiigi-r-
nul partisans made things ively. It ■■ou-
tinued for Ci " minute* and the chair

The Fxewv loet-ts tlsvtnc ■ Frolts lw
Avium, July T.-lBpecUl.j—Attorneys fo»
tho proncution are beRinning to nnearth Store
Hjnn’a hidden tre»»ure. Kvan’s cano in dow
being heard bj Henry C. Peeples, appointed
Auditor to inrentigate the accounts aud eitab-
lish or disprove his contempt. Today Ryan’s
brother Du» vu tbe principal witness, nnd bin
evidence, when taken in connection with tho
theory of the prosecution in thin now famous
esse, derolopod a sensation. It is claimed by
the prosecution that the $121,000 missing in
the assets of tho Itysu concern, and ou account
of which Steve Ryan was committed to Jail
nearly a year ago for contempt of court in re
fusing to disclose its whereabouts, was hidden
out by Ryan with hia father and brothers.
Last Novemlier Steve Ryan’s two brothers,
Gua and Charlie, bought in tho stock of tho
bankrupt bouso from H. B. C'lafln k Co.,
whose bid was accepted by the receiver, pay
ing for it $3110,000. Tills $300,000 it is alleged
is part of thn spoils of Hteve Ryan's failure.
On the staud today Gus Ryan nworo that ho
and hia brother had paid $1U),000 cash in
making tho purchase of tho stock. When
asked where ho got tho money ho said hia
father had given it to him, $30,000 iu
curccncy, this money having been kept
at home in a wardrobe. A. striking feature
of $'io case la the amount of money shown to
have been kept in the Ryan residence in
wardrobe drawers. Stove himself ou the
etnnd said he had been in tli© habit of keop-
iig nn $5,000 to $50,000 in his room before
t... .Allure. John F. Ryan, one of thebrothurs,
was shown to have had $30,000 in curreucy in
his wardrobe over aim*© the failure
and Gua had $10,000, which be teetified
had been given him aa a present bv hia
mother just before the failure, she handing it
to him in bills iu the sitting room.
The theory of the prosecution is that the
$100,000 given by Kyan’a lather to hie two
boys to buy the Imnkrupt stock last Novem
ber, the $10,000 given by Mr*. Ryan to her son
Gus and the $30,000 shown to be in John F.’a
hands ia all really tho money
pocketed by Steve Ryan out his failure, aa
there are no notes or receipts from any of
their transactions. When put on the stand
Ryan account'd for $32,000, by saying he had
$10,000 to a broker named George Drake in
New York, this amount being paid in currency
a few days before the failure without a re
ceipt being given for it. Ryan claimed
that thi* money was lost In stock
aieouUtiona. When asked if Drake was
Uviug. he aald that he had been burned up in
a big fire in New York a few mouths ago.
Another time Jnst before the failure, Ryan, in
Anuinni uiur jiint uciuiu tuu umiuv, all, m
his office in Atlanta, paid H. J. Lory, another
broker through whom he had lost, ttLlUl to
currency, which Lory, whore residence ho did
sot remember, pnt in his pockets and carried
out ot town, not placing Ui« money in s Lank,
and not eren Shipping at n hotel, haring ar>
rived in Ibe citv ie tho morning and leaving
with the pile of moooy tho same night.
At no time has the Famous Ryan ease pro.
rented s more interesting view. Tho sttor*
eoyf for tho prosecution are convinced that
they have got the ei-merehant prince cor
nered with tho missing boodlo in his hands.
