Outbreak) ol BIIIitiicks Trotips To Htay Till The nifficultlcH at louieHlcnd Arc Mcttled-Slrlker Admitted to Hall. JEHomrstkai), July 2(1. A statement made by Ocn. Snowdrn Hint the troops will lie kept here till (lie trouble is net tled one way or the oilier has cmstil o profound sensation in IIomcsle;.d. lvx- ccpt for the women cursing the militia, Homestead is in a deathlike quiet. "May God remember you for coming here to help take bread from my chil dren," shrieked one woman at Col. Green, the olliccr in command nearest the Carnegie property nnd close to the strikers' headquarters. Iiiqierienees of this sort, while not numerous, were not relished by the sol diers. They attribute the outbreaks of bitterness to the growing despondency in the strikers' ranks. Some even based the broad prediction on such disagreeable incidents that the break up of the strike is already begun. The strikers on the other hand had a different explanation of any increased bad feeling for the troops. It was sug gested that the announcement by Snow den thnt, contrary to a widespread ex pression, the troops would not be with drawn till the existing difficulties in Homestead were settled, had more to do with the growth of the dislike lor the millitnry than had any alleged despon dency. The time selected for the an nouncement thr.t the troops were to be a fixture came in for some rather harsh comment. The fact was pointed out that the information was made public by Gen. Snowdcn exactly at a critical juncture when it circulated in print the lust day lielorc the one set by Superin tendent Totter as the final limit in which applxations for work would be received from the strikers.

The ComtuUHloiier Will Notlicuy Nor Coullrm This Rumor. Washington, July 18. A sensational rumor was current this morning that Commissioner of Tensions Kaum had tendered his rcsignition to the Tresident to take effect Aug 1. The commissioner himself would nei ther deny nor confirm the story, and no information concerning it could lie ob tained at the white house. Members of the house who heard the story believed it to be based upon the statement the Tresident made last week to a personal friend, that Kauui's admin istration of the ollice had caused him more anxiety and annoyance than all the other departments of the government combined. He added that he had about arrived at the conclusion that to retain Kaum lonccr would probably result more disastrously than to let him go at onec. The republican members of the Kaum committee filed their minority report today. It finds nothing lor which the commissioner can be criticised, unless it be that he appointed his son appoint ment clerk of the bureau and asserts that the majority of the commit tee seemed de termined to fasten crime and corruption upon him, but, having utterly failed ol evidence, tried to do so by inference.

In the house Mr. llurrows, Irom the committee on rules, reported a resolution providing that (rom now till the end of the session, the speaker may, after the call of com mittees for the reports, call the commit tee for one hour when the incasurs on any calendar may be called up for action Agreed to. Mr. O'Ncil of Missouri, asked consent that a session be ordered for tomorrow night lor consideration of bills reported from the committee- on commerce. Mr. Cuuimings of New York objected. Oncill that kills the life-saving bill. Under the terms of the resolution, just passed, the speaker proccded to call the committee. Mr, Culberson, from the committc: on udiciary, called up, and the house passed the senate bill providing for the terms of the district court for the east district ol South Carolina. HOPE I'OR MRS, MAYHKICK. It May be She Will Yd lie Lib erated. Loniion, July IS. Mrs. Helen Dens- more writes that Sir. Charles Russell, Mr. Poland, Mr. Moulton, and several other prominent lawyers have declared that the new evidence obtained in the Mnybrick case has convinced them that the evidence given on the trial did not justify the verdict of guilty, by virtue of which Mrs. Mnybrick is now serving a life sentence of imprisonment. If Mrs. Densmorc s statement is correct, It is a very important one in its bearing on Mrs. Mnybrick s chances for pardon. Sir Charles Kusscll will certainly be n member of Mr. Gladstone's government, and very likely home secretary. If he entertains the convictions attributed to him by Mrs, Ucnsmore, he can hardly avoid recommending to the Ouccn the pardon ol the prisoner. New York Sun, IIARRITV IS WILLING.

It would be premature for me to accept a post now which has not yet been awarded." -N. Y. Sun. Till-: tdlM HV CI.l'H. The People of AHhcvllle Want .:wm IMenly of SiuorlH. "The skies lire bright for the lovers of sport in Asheville. Gala Week was a revelation even to those who have be lieved all along that there was good ma terial l.crc for athletics, but the most sanguine scarcely believed that there was such a desire on the part of the co- ple generally to witness the contests and contribute to their success. Their contributions to the firemen were superb, their presence at the shooting, racing and on Monfford avenue counted in the thousands. There was such a large fine time that cverydody has been saying to everybody else, "Let's have 'cm often!" 1-n m the exuberance of good things has come the Asheville Country club in the hands of men with ideas beyond the walls of their counting rooms they are shaping an organization to be run on ousiucss principles mat win luster out door sports and add to the desirability ol lite in this favored resort. The scheme is that a number of suc cessful business men control a club that will place at the disposal of interested patrons a race course with suitable buildings within c.isv access where gen' le- men may speed, stable or train their horses at their desire, and where contemplating purchasers may have an opportunity of testing offered stock. In their season will be held baseball, football, loot racing, tennis, riding and shooting tournaments, poultry and bench shows and every legitimate sport to bring together the gentry of the country. A meeting will be called in n lew- days for organization. The program ol tomorrow s sports is a good one and will doubtless attract asgrcat ncrowd as that of the best day of last week.
