What did Carnegie do with wages at the Homestead Steel Plant?

Three hundred locked-out men applied for work and were rehired. "Life worth living again!" Carnegie cabled Frick. "First happy morning since July." With the union crushed, Carnegie slashed wages, imposed 12-hour workdays, and eliminated 500 jobs. "Oh that Homestead blunder," Carnegie wrote a friend.
