Capital anil la bor will luck liurns in a life or death struggle tomorrow. The battle will In fought at Homestead, I'a., lilit miles from this city. The contestants will be the great com bination of interests of which Andrew CaiiK'Klc is the head and the Amalga mated association of iron and steel workers of the United States, an organi zation which boasts of tir-rc than 30, 000 members and n ersh capiiul ot over $250,000. The questions involved in this conflict are many in number and complex m character. Iiroadly tix-ukim;. the main issue will involve the right of the com pany to dictate terms to its meu. AicaiiiHl a Reduction. From a specific point ol viewthestrug- gle will be one of the skilled laborers of the works against n proposed reduction in wages ol thirty per cent, and un at tempt on the part of the Carnegie steel company (limited) to make such work ing terms it deems applicable to the pres ent condition of the steel business ami the mechanical improvements effected in the process of manufacture. The condition of affairs which exists at present arises out of the expiration of a three years' sliding scale ol wages in operation at the homestead works of the company, and the action of the latter in substituting another with a marked re duction in rates. For months the leaders of both sides have been endeavoring, bv consultation and argument, to arrive at some amica ble and harmonious agreement on the issue. Sad to relate, they ha.vc failed, and hence the approaching strike. Mr. Carnegie's lieutenants have made elaborate preparations in anticipation o tne present revolt. In 1889, in a dis agreement somewhat similar in char acter, the strongest and most powerful enemies with which the company had to deal were the old or skilled hands. The result of the conflict was not altogether satisfactory to either side, but the Car negie people have resolved they will not again be taken by surprise. With this end in view they have encircled the entire plant, one of the largest in the world, with a palisading of hardwood planking nine feet high and crowned with three strands of barbed wire. These will be charged with electricity to prevent the possibility of any raid made by the strikers. Within the confines of this deadly fence are being erected great towets in which are placed strong elec tric lamps, by which those on the inside will be m a position to watch tuc mawvuvres of on- attacking force. Stout UarrlclcleH. Where the workmen and laborers en tered heretofore from the railroad tracks and other points, stout barricades bar the way and bridges provide access from one portion of the works to the other. Half way between City Farm and Munhall station a new station has been built for the accommodation ol the com pany. This will enable a train of l'inkei ton men, watchmen and wm kers to be unloaded into the middle of the works without interference. A big barrack like structure was re cently erected ior the purpose of guaran teeing the guardians of the place and new men lodging and a refuge, The river front is unprotected by any fence, but I am crediably informed that a steam launch has been purchased and equipped with guns and ammunition to serve as a river patrol at this point. The four thousand workers arc well aware of these preparations. It is cer tain they have determined to resist the reduction proposed by Carnegie and will make a bitter light. Many ol them own more or less property in the borough and so large a number could not find employment elsewhere and they have resolved to light. It is a deadly fight between two well matched antagonists and no man can with salety predict the result, but the odds arc slightly in favor of the manu facturing or Carnegie clement, N. Y. Herald.

Ni;v York, June 29. Drexel, Morgan & Co.'s in declining to undertake the reorganization of the Richmond Ter minal, say in a letter to W. li. Strong, chairman of the Richmond Terminal stockholders committee : "Referring to our previous correspond ence regarding the affairs of the Rich mond Terminal system, we beg to say that we have made a careful investiga tion of the affairs of that system. We have reached the conclusion that a re organization is possible on a basis of equity to all concerned, one that we should be prepared to undertake and one which, in our opinion, would place your property on a sound financial basis. The complica tions and difficulties which must be met in this direction make it necessary that we should be protected against any sin gle interest, which might for p rsonnl or other reasons desire to thwart a -uc- cessful carying out of such reorgan ization. With this in mind we deem it essential, before any action on our part, that a majority ol each class of the stock and bonds of ti e Richmond and West Point terminal railroad and Warehouse company be deposited with us for the purpose ot reorganization, and mat all litigation should be put under our con trol and persons of our selection substi stituted for the receivers now in posses sion of the proK-rties. "Therefore, upon learning of the ap pointment of receivers of the Richmond and Danville property by the United States c-iiirt, wc applied to Mr. W. P. Clvdc to know whether, in case we un dertook the reorganization, the suit under his control would he transferred to us and the present receivers resign in favor of Mr. Spencer, slating to him that in our opinion, such course was essen tial. He declines to give us any such as surance and our conversation with mm leads us to doubt his loyalty to any re organization plan whatever, although he, as one of your committee, signed a request to us to undertake the same. "As, in our opinion, it is essential to the success of any plan that during the reorganization the properties involved should be under our control, and as the position taken by Mr. Clvde makes this impossible, wc are obliged reluctantly to decline the invitation to undertake the reorganization." A Pl.KASANT EVICKilNG. Reception at HoutliHlde Presbv terlan Chanel A large and interested audience gath ered last evening at the Southside Pres byterian church to attend the reception given by the ladies of the church. After the inspection of the building there were expressions of surprise and pleasure on every hand that a building could be so admirably arranged for all the depart ments of work for which it wns design ed. Another source of remark was that a church work only a year in existence could oecome so stable and advanced. The people of the Southside are very grateful to the friends who have for some time rendered them such spiritual and material assistance. They took this opportunity to express their leclings in the following resolution, which was unanimously adopted; "Wc, the members of the church and congregation worshiping in the South side Presbyterian church, desiring to i-ive an expression of our lecliiigsol grat itude to the First Presbyterian church of Asheville for the interest ever manilested in our spiritual advancement, and for the substantial contribution of land and money made for the building of our de lightful house of worship; be it therefore "Resolved, Hint wc tender our heart felt thanks to the membersofthatchurch and congregation lor their many acts ol liberality to us and our children, praying that the blessing of the great Head ol the church may ever rc-it upon those who have done so much lor us in the name ol lesus our Lord."
