Up for targets en- such trains. This was
bout as far as they would promise to go. In
The course of the afternoon and evening
numbers of men, some of them strangers,
could be seen in the neighborhood of the
round house 18th street and Virginia avenue
southwest) generally standing in groups,
and from this point TO the navy yard tunnel
there were several groups of men
standing. 1t was reported that
train made up in the depot was for the pur-
pose of carrying over TO Baltimore in case OF
necessity a body of troops, marines and
the depot that IL such a train was sent out il
would be attacked. Whether there was ac-
tual ground for the fears of attack is not
positively known, but ii is certain that
threats were made that no troops should
leave, and one man publicly offered to bet
SIS that no trains would be running to-day.
Major Richards was informed of the cOndi-
ton OF things, and dispatches were sent to
the several precincts to hold all the men in
reserve. All the men that could be spared
from the second, fourth, and sixth precincts
were detailed to the fifth precinct station, on
10 h street, and kept there until after mid
night. Lieutenants johnson, Hurley. Green,
Austin, Co. sford, and Kelly we've with the
reserve force, which included ten mounted
men. detail of twenty-one men was sent
from the eighth or Navy Yard precinct TO
the first precinct station in South Washing
the line of the road was carefully watched.
In tie depot a conductor and crew were held
in readiness for extra duty supposed to carry
troops, and for several hours the officials
seemed to be waiting for orders with much
solicitude, but about 1870 O'Clock this m 1rn-
ing messenger hastily entered the depot,
and in a few minutes the parties, who were
To run the train and engine, left for their
homes, and word being sent TO police heal
quarters the police reserves were relieved.

SIrkA IN DANGER
A Massacre Of the whites by Indt ans

PORT TOWNSEND, w. T., July 23.-The
steamer California, from Sitka, arrived last
night aud reports great danger ofthe destruc-
ton OF the entire town OF Sltka, with all Its
Inhabitants, by the Indians. The troops had
hardly got out OF sight OF the town when the
Indians came pouring inside the stockade
and entered and pillaged all the government
buildings vacated by the troops. Sitka Jack
head chief OF the Koloeh tribe, himself told
Captain ThoIne that the country was his
and on the return Of his men from fishing he
would Ia Ike possession OF the town. AT eve
ming entertainments among the whites In the
town the Indians came boldly and refused To
on the return OF Jacks men from fishing. a I'D
as the whites only number forty the proba-
biiites are our next intelligence will be OF
their utter destruction. The blame seems 10
be between the War department and the
Treasury. A vessel should be sent AT once
10 their rescue. Collector Berry has made
every effort, but In vain, TO obtain an armed
vessel. He himself came down on the CALI
forria 10 Victoria. Berry Ia very sick.

The government has made complete ar
engagements for having Immediate telegraph
ic communication with every point where
the strikers are carrying on their operations
Every signal observer has been ordered TO
inform the War depsrtment OF the situation
of affairs in the vicinity of his station. The

almost constantly busy receiving and send
ing dispatches. Aajutant General Townsend
with a force OF clerks from his Office, is on
duty every night all night, and Assistant
Adjutant General Vincent, with a similar
force, is at his desk during the day. The dis
patches received at the War department p

affairs.

tation, which led 10 mis- request TO be relieved.
THE GOVERNMENT PREPARED FOR ANY

ialfs al Readlng the adyices received by the
government represent that the mob element
which allied with the strikers, Il under con-
troll, and that danger OF further violence is

net together at noon in regular session. The
members are still inclined to be reticent, but
say the government is now amply prepared
for any emergency.

ST. LOUIS, July p, 10 a. m.-Ali the pas

stopped this morning by the strikers. One
train on the Nandalia road was allowed to
go cut, but all others were detained, and 20
more will be permitted to leave on the Van
daIia line. There was no interference with
the postal cars, ana they were allowed To go
out on all the roads. All the cars at Union

moved out Of the yari Immediately in front
of the depot and taken up the road some
distance, leaving the ira ks at the depot
clear. The str kers say there is no midd lie

tory or defeat with them, and they pro-
pose 10 make the issue square and clearly
de fined from now on, and 10 effect this they
will put a total emba rgo on freight and pas

take. Two hundred and fifty men of Gen

switched Off on side track at Seialia, but
whether by the Missouri Pacific or by the
Missouri, Kansas and Texas railroad men
or by outside parties, is not reported. Ad-

special of last night says that meeting was
held there that night, composed of several
hundred labOriDg men, railroad employees
and others. A committee of railroad men
ard packing house employees submitted res

COLUMBUS, July 2-Ihe PlttsDurg, Gin

the action OF the mob yesterday in Closing up

purpose OF maintaining strike and prevent
Ing The running of freight trains, they ute
ly repudiafe all riOtouS, incendiary and law
less proceedings, and will do all in their
power TO bring the rioters TO justice and pre-
vent repetition OF their excesses. The
strikers are thoroughly organized and deter
mined not to yield They claim that they
cannot live upon their present compensa-
ton. and the men are discharged II they
get into debt. The strikers have resolved
not TO cOuntenance any drunkenness or vio-
lence by any of their number. The prompt
action by the police authorities and cit zens
last night has apparently had the effect of
cemorallZ'ng the rioters, very few of whom
have been seen this morning. There is much
less excitement on the streets than yesUer-
day, and greater feeling of security pre-
walls. Most of the factories aud machine
shops resumed work this morning, the men
being put To work as fast they come in.
