Show GONE TO LABOR WITH BELGIANS. Leaders of the Strikers Mysteriously Leave for the East. Pittsburg, July 18. David Lester, of the military, while drunk this morning ran a bayonet into Frank C. Calhoun, inflicting a wound which will prove fatal. A dozen of the best educated, and most conservative of the locked out men at Homestead Home-stead left for the east this morning with great secrecy. It is believed they have gone to labor with the lot of Belgians said to be on the way to take the places of the old men. The Amalgamated Lodge of Workmen at Carnegie's Union mills met this morning and resolved to stand firm in the strike and tendered the Homestead men both financial and physical assistance. |
