The Trouble Among the Coal
Miners in the Kanawha.
CHARLESTON, W. Va,

CHAMELEON, W. VA, June D.
Special Dispatch to the 1ntelllScneer.
A strike occurred at Blacksburg q
short time ago, which was satisfactorily
adjusted. and the men engaged in it re.
turned to work as usual. On Friday
last it was found that blacksmith who
had taken part in the strike had been
discharged, whereupon the miners insist.
ed that he should be re.employed. This
was refused on the part Of his employers,
aud as soon as the refusal was made
known all the miners except sixteen
came out and refused to work until the
demand was complied with. On satur-
day a meeting Of miners from other 10.
calities was held, and between FIVE
and eight hundred Of them were in at.
tendance from different portions Of the
Valley. They demanded that the six
teen miners who were at work should
come out, which demand was complied
with. A vote was then taken whether
the sixteen who had jumped at work,
together with the managers, should be
lynched. This project was defeated by a
small majority and the crowd then dis.
persed, but on leaving, several bank
wagons, which were stauding on an in
cline, were wrecked by! irresponsible
parties. The other miners are making
efforts to discover who were the guilty
parties, with view to having them dis.
charged. Although the strike still con-
tinues, no serious trouble is anticipated.

family, Referred.
The Senate then resumed the consider
alton Of the post route bill and the dis
cussion in regard to the Brazilian subsi,
dy was continued.
Mr.. Christiancy opposed the bill, and
said he was opposed to any subsidy TO 4
steamship line, because Il would only bs
injurious to all other lines between the
ports named. Equity in all such matterE
was justice, and competition was the life
Of trade. These subsidies tender to de-
stroy both. There was but one way thai
be could see TO build up commerce, and
that was 10 give q general bounty to all
engaging in commerce. BE was opposed
to all subsidies upon principle.
Mr.. Beck opposed the bill in q lengthy
speech and argued that it was for the ben.
elit OF Jno. Roach. II we were going into
subsidy business where was all this money
to come from? II could not be raised
by increasing the tax on tobacco or on
distilled spirits It could not be raised
by taxing the banks, and the tariff could
not be increased. Where did the sena.
tors propose to get the money from.
These were important questions for the
American Congress TO consider. We
were protected TO death and now II was
soug6 to subsidize us to death.
Mr.. Bayard spoke in opposition to any
subsidy 10 the Brazialian steamship line,
Was II Just to pay man $3.50, 900 per
annum Tor carrying the mails on his own
ships when in could be done for 1900
per annum?
Mr.. Thurman said, II ever there was
unanimity In any community II was
among the people Of Ohio. On this ques.
tion Of subsidy the opinion OF the people
10 that state had been expressed by reso.
lutions through the press and in every
way, aud there never was 4 man more
completely instructed than he was, there.
fore he would vote against the bill. This
was scheme to trkethe money out Of the
National Treasury to make these ships
more profitable. The more he looked in
to this the more he found It gratuily.
The bill having been considered in the
Committee Of the Whole, was reported
to the Senate, and Mr. Thurman called
for separate vote on the amendments in
regard TO the Brazilian subsidy. They
we're concurred in.-yeas 20, nays IL.
The bill was then read third time and
passed--yeas "a, nays 15.
The Senate then, at s P. NJ, adjourned.
