An emigrant train detained at
Pays ferry arrived here to-day under
escort of Capt. Bush's volunteers.
There have been no stages through
from Winnemucca since the raid.
The Kelton and Bois City road has
not been disturbed since the raid on
King Hill station on the 31st of May.
This rout is considered safe, and
stages are running regularly. 1t is
rumored that a large band of horses
were discovered yesterday on the
south side of snake river, between
the mouth Of the Bruneau and
Mundy's ferry. This would indicate
the Indians are endeavoring to get
back with their stolen stock to the
lava beds from which they started.
The prevailing opinion here is that
the Indians will concentrate in the
neighborhood of STEMS mountains,
and then either await the coming up
Of the troops or divide into bands for
raiding exposed settlements.
LATER.
Gen. Towards scouts report the
hostiles concentrating in large force
on Stein mountains, and the general
is moving his troops in that direction.

san FRANCISCO, June ia
| Virginia City dispatch says: The ex-
citement here to-day over the demon
stration of the mechanics union
against a reduction of wages by the
mining companies from SIS to 81 per
day. The union, about $50 strong,
marched to the Savage mine and de-
manded SIS per day for all mechanics
employed in the mine. Supt. Gillet
guaranteed an increase to that amount
in future, and the procession then
went to the consolidated Virginia.
Supt. Fair was sick at home, and
assistant Potter said he could do
nothing until he heard from the
trustees at San Francisco. The "a
mechanics employed in the works
were then ordered to quit which they
did. The same course was pursued
at the G.. g. C. shaft. The men then
returned to the miners Union hall.
A meeting is called for tomorrow
night, to decide upon future course
Many of the mechanics in the Con
solidated Virginia and c. & G. works
are now receiving the wages deman'
ded by the union, and only few
have been ordered to quit work
The demonstration was orderly
and no violence has been used
The Miners Union take III
part in the demonstration, but it i!
said an understanding exists between
the unions to cooperate in case OF
emergency. The mechanics are de
termined to push the fight to the las
if the mine managers refuse to restor
the old rates of wages.
