men resumed work in the Pennsy lyania Railroad
shops tins morning.
The city Of Pittsburg last night and this morn
ing has been quiet and orderly as could be de-
sired, with the single exception of the cowardly
firing by a mob on the members of the Fire Depart
ment who responded to an alarm from the East End
district Nothing has since occurred that would
give even an intmation of the existence of trouble
some times. 1t is known at Pttsburg that Gen.
Hancock has been ordered thither, and that Gov.
Iartmnlt, as COmmander-ln-Chief Of the State
troops, left Philadelphia for that city yesterday af-
ternoOn. Aside from this, nothing Is known there
concerning the movements of the militia, but the
general impression is that by aquick movement they
will take possession of the Pennsylvania Railroad be-
fore the strikers have time to gather sufficient force
and then proceed to send out freight trans east and
west.
