J., July 19.—Chancellor MoGill has denied the application for « new trial in the case of Robert Alden Fales, the sixteen-year-old boy who was convicted of the murder of Thos. Haydon in this city. The application for a new trial was made on the that the indictment on which Fales was convicted of murder in the firet degree was defective. Fales’ counsel, ana last resort, will apply to Gov. Abbett and the court of pardons to com- mute the prisoner's sentence to imprisonment for twenty years, that being the penalty in New Jersey for murder in the second degree. Should the court of pardons decide not to interfere Fales will be hanged in tho Essex county jail on August 11. —_——>—_. NO ONE TO BLAME, Verdict of the Coroner's Jury in the Peoria Lake Disaster.

Po Yeaman are contending. dates for lieutenant governor and asimilar num- ber for the other state officers. ‘The conven- tion in addition to nominating complete state also put in the fleld a complete set of Presidential electors. But one contest will come before the convention and that involves but three delegates. The session may, how- ever, be made a long one by the number of can- didates in the field, whose supporters are all do- termined in their stand.

Bomestead Homxsteap, Pa., July 19—The advisory board for a second time last night took up the question of the arrests threatened today. A telegram from Pittsburg was read announcing that Burgess MoLuckie of Homostead had gone to thesheriff’s office and surrendered. The legal advisor of the committge, Mr.W. J. Bren- nan, could not be reached, But the chairman was instructed to see and discover whether Mr. Andrew Carnegio, H. C. Frick, the Pinkerton brothers and Messrs, Lovejoy, Potter, Carey and Dovey could not be indicted for murder and treason in bringing an armed body of men into the state who wrought the death of several people in Homestead. Mr. Hugh Ross, one of the men who is under indictment for the affray with the Pinkertons, said that he was advised that Carnegie could be extradited on the charge. ‘The mecting then adjourned. Arumor that wholesale arrests of strikers were contemplated today on similar charges to this on which Meluckie and the other six for whom warrants were issued yesterday received little credence. A scout who nad been sent through the mill reported to the meoting that the only men at work in any part of the prop- erty outside of the office were Messrs. Hender- son, Ratidan, Potter. Dovey, Cuppes, Bob and John Dixon ‘and Dinkey. ‘All of | these belong to the administration of the mill. Sixty cots are arranged in one of the mills and stores and tables enongh to feed about a hundred were seen, but the story that there were any non-union mechanics inside the white fence was absolutely false. This search was made very complete on account of the rumors in circulation that non-union men had been in- troduced and the advisory committee is now satisfied that there ix nothing in these stories. It was reported that the Carnegiesbad secured three men from the Black Diamond steel mills at Pittsburg for the armor plate mill. Their names were given as Robert Baumgartner, a The Leading Topic Among the Strikers at Today. roller; Robert Solomon, a acrew-down hand, | and Jack Hood, a heater. These are all non- union men, highly skilled, who are well_ known in the business. “A committee waa appointed to verify the report and, if possible, interview the men named. ‘The story about imported labor coming in on different ships was taken up, but little attention was paid to it. Mr. Crawford stated that the Amalgamated Association could rely implicitly on Mr. Samuel Gompers and the federation, which would, if nedessary, picket all the ports in the country. A. body of non-union workingmen, about twenty strong, was reported to be gathered at Little Washington. A committeee of two was sent to argue with the men and urge them not tocome into the works. Nobody in Home- | stead attached much importance to this story, and Col. Case, who is doing the tour of pro- vont duty, has absolutely no information from his pickets which would confirm it. ‘The story is doubted by the troops and the strikers, though a thorough investigation is being mado by the pickets, who will report to the advisory committee today. TRE FIRST BRIGADE ORDERED HOME. Lenanox, Pa., July 19.—The first brigade this morning was ordered home. The whole brigade broke camp and is on the way to Phila- delphia. Se GOV. PATTISON AT |OMESTEAD. Booming of Cannon Announced His Arrival to the Scared Residents. Howesteap, Pa., July 19.—The wretched- ness in Homestead was at its’ height today when Gov. Pattison, whose coming has been anxiously awaited on all sides in the little borough, arrived here, A drenching rain was falling, mud was every- where and the strikers had each individually before them the disheartening prospect of being served at any moment with a warrant that might eventually land them in the penitentiary or on the gallows, Up the steep yellow road from the railway station near the Carnegie works to the top of the hill where Gen. Snowden, commanding the militia, has his headquarters the governor was slowly ‘conveyed by an escort of several bun- dred cavalrymen. From the heights every few seconds a bright red flash could be seen against the leaden sky, then a huge puff of white smoke and immediately a thunderous explosion that rattled and e-echoed down the valleye, start- ng tl le nt Homestead into the streets bareheaded In the rain, Gov. Pattison took the shortest cut from the train to the camp, owing chiefly, perhaps, to the storm, and thus did not ‘appear at the main depot in the business center of Homestead. In this way the first intimation the strikers and | 9s their families had of his prosence was the firing of artillery. wpe by many to mean that another riot broken out and that another day of bloodshed had already begun. ¢ arrival of the governor was watched from al- | TO ILLUMINATE THE AVENUE.

After the routine morning business Mr. Gor- man presented the conference report on the | fortification bill and it was agreed to. Mr. Morgan called up the resolution offered by him on the 14th instant directing the com- mittee on finance to report a bill to give to all parer money isened by the United States as a legal tender for debts and to all standard eilver | dollars the full legal tender given by law to| coins of gold, and addressed the Senate in ex- planation and advocacy of it. There vere, he said, Scotch and English agencies in the state of Alabama which foaned money on contracts | | requiring payment in gold coin. He was seck- | ing a remedy for that evil. He wanted to make | uniform the power of legal tender money in the payment of debts. He gave the figures of the paper money which the government is bound to rodeem in | gold, if demand at $702,000,000, and of the gold | in the treasury wherewith to redeem such Paper money at 6125,000.000, and snid that a demanded on the treasury, which would for one moment prove the inability of the government to meet its contracts, would destroy faith in the government and would injure if not ruin its credit. The danger of the situation could not be exaggerated, and it came from the power that was put in the hands of the moneyed class to make contracts payable in | gold ‘as the only legal tender. He bad just re- | ceived anote stating (and correctly,be believed) that the not amount of gold in the treasury was $111,000,000—the lowest point reached in nine ears, and that was all that the people of the United States had got to rely on for the re- demption of all the vast volume of outstanding | paper money. He for the yeas and nays | Ea the adoption of the cenchatlons MR. SHERMAN'S MOTION. Mr. Sherman moved that the resolution be referred to the committee on finance. Ho as- sumed that so experienced a Senator as the | Senator from Alabama would not ask the Sen- ate to vote on & proposition involving the | | gravest questions. ‘There was nota, single prop- | osition in the preamble to tho resolution that was | not dis; uted, and as to the resolution itself it | irected the’ finance committee (without in- quiry and without 4 portunity for investi- gation) to report a jeclaring that the peo- ple of the United States shall have no right to contract with each other as to the mt of debts. tt the resolution were referred to the com- mittee on finance that committee ee the fullest attention to the subject. Mr. Sher- man ‘one by one the several statements in the preamble and pointed out wherein they were not borne out by the facts. XOT A MILLION PAID IX GOLD. In the course of his remarks he said that not a million dollars in United States bonds hed ever been paid in gold. Thoy had been paid as all other government debts were paid, in checks or in paper money, or in gold or silver coin. Mr. Carlisle asked Mr. Sherman whether the different footing from any official of the United States, and whether the one did not receive payment for his bond just as the other received | Pagment for his salary. || Mr. Sherman replicd thit the person who | prescnted his bond to the treasury for pay- | ment was treated as any other person having a claim upon the treasury, differences ‘The bonduelder sould ference: could require pay- ment in coin, whereas the individual debtor had not that right. SS qicee ss toe practi older was ike any other publio creditor. ” WON'T LISTEN TO MR. MORGAX. Mr. Morgan wished to interpose w remark, bat Mr. Sherman declined to yield the floor, vaying that it seemed he could never speak on the subject of finance without stirring up the Senator from Alabama. | The retort on the = of Mr. Morgan was | that if the Senator Ohio would stick to the truth in his statements nobody would be stirred up. That remark, Mr. Sherman said, showed the | Senator's want of courtesy: and yet much of what the Senator had eaid today was not true— was not correct. Mr. Sherman denied Mr. Morgan's assertion that the treasury only held $111,000,000 of gold coin and said that the treasury held dollar for dollar (with some millions to spare) for the gold certificates —8156,000,000. | Every dollar of' these gold certificates wes supported by gold in the treasury. That gold was not counted as part of the $11,000,000 vo that instead of there being only @111,- 000,000 of gold in the the: was €270,000,000 odd. ‘The ‘debtor classce Qtr, Sherman went on to say) were not in the thralls. as tho Senator from Alabama represented, of the creditor classes. ‘The debtor classes dominated in the business of the country. was & man en- gaged in large businces who was not a debtor.
