OUTRAGE CONTINUED.
The War Againss the Chinese Goes
Bravely On-Our Officers Quiet.

ausurated Oh Monday morning against
the Chinese employed in this city was
again continued. Sheriff Swift was
| mounted early and rode freely among
the irate inhabitants who wanted to in
woke war, counseling them to the qu'ete1
courses OF pesce. But before the advent
of Sheriff Swift, some of the malconsents
had gone out on the line Of tbs railroad

Chinese were employed, and drove them
hence in heller skelter toward
MILL STATION IN wAsHoE COUNTY.
Finding they were monarchs OF all they
surveyed. they turned their direction
homewards and visited the camp OF the
Chinese employed at the Wood Fluming
Company of Yerington 4 Co. The

visitors entered their cabins aud store

to the value o!
POUR HUNDRED DOLLARS.
At least this is what the boss Cbinaman
reports to Mr.. Yerins.on, who believes
what his boss Chinaman says, and the
consequence is that Mr.. Yerington will
present bill to the county of Ormsby
for the full payment Of this amount,
The goods taken or destroyed consist OF
new blankets, new boots, and large guam

known as the Clear Greek Hume. Here
were employed a number of Ch!narneD
and white men. Sheriff Swift .Gde along
with the crowd and forbade them resort
ing to violence. The mob. through their
leader. desired to see the foreman en-
pioyed there, and stated to him that be
would be given two days in which TO
swap of his Cinnamon for white men, at
which time
THEY WOULD VISIT HIN ASAkN
To see that he compiled with their de-
mand They then took their departure.
A large crowd kept watch of them from
town. When they left the tume they
directed their steps eastwardiy, as if they
had concluded to walk back on the rail
road track. A goodiy number OF the
citizens of the town thought they would
make an attack upon Chinatown, aud so
they repaired tnither to watch the on
coming anti Monaghan tide Bat these
exuectants were disappointed. The cru
saders were bent in another direction.
They
TURNED DOWN TEE WAX SPRINGS ROAD
With the avowsd intention of going to
Empire. Thither they went. At that
little burg they notified the chief en-
ployers OF Chinese that they would be
gwen until Friday to discharge their
Cinnamon and employ white men in
their places. They would be kind
enough 10 come around again on that
dsv aud see that the change was made,
or they would then inaugura.e war 10
bring about the result they desired to &C.
complish. They then returned to town
in a struggling sort Of way-such as is
perhaps most betting lawless men
and finally broke up with three cheers
in front Of the Old Erisbie Corner.
THEIR APPEARANCE.
Their countenancss, as a whole. were far
from bearing an intelligent look. Many
were interviewed, and the results were
universally the sams-they sll spoke in
broken Enelish-that is, the rank and
file. They are mostly Canadian French
men. and those who have been among
US for soma time have been employed as
wooachoppers in the mountains. But
among them are many who have not
been in Ornsby County, We are told. for
more than a month. They know no.
thing OF our language, laws or customs.
The
LEADER Or THIS MOB,
We are informed, has been in the en-
nloy Of the Virginia and Truckee
Railroad Company and voluntarily re-
linuuished that employment. We are
told that his name is Hone. lie IS
said to have been born in PennSyiVa-
MIA OF Irish parents. and TO be Cath
Ollie. Another character who ap-
pearet, in the procession Yesterday IS
stated to us by gentleman to be an
excellent carpenter. Approaching
this same gentlenan-our Informant
recently, this carpenter stated that he
could obtain an excellent job If he
only had a carpenters kit of tools.
The gentleman approached said he
should not lack kit OF tools If he
could thereby obtain = good job, and
so he went with him and bought and
paid for
i.IT COSTING FoETE DOLLARS.
These tools the carpenter sold for
twenty five dollars right away, with
ont having used them, and Yesterday
appeared in the procession demand
ing labor for white men.
From what information we can
learn-and we have given the results
above-the men now demanding the
removal OF the Chinese from our
midst are hot-headed and unfair rep
resentatiyes of white men generally
and Of the American character espec-
ially. While we have no intention OF
doing them an injustice, truth and
candOr compel us to state that the
number Of Americans among them
was so few that the procession was
bur!esGue upon the American name.
