THE SPRINGFIELD DIFFICULTY.
The Men at Work to Be Protected-Thurs-
day Nights Murders

SPRINGFIELD, H., April 13-There has
been no trouble at the rolling-mill since last
night, reported in these dispatches. The
men remain firm in the determination to re-
main at their posts, and many think the as
sault of last night will have an effect directly
contrary to what was expected. The firing
party has not as yet been identified, and no
arrests have been made. Mulkern the most
seriously injured man of several who were
wounded last night, is alive and will proba-
bly, recover.
There has been no riotous demonstrations
at the rolling-mill since last evening Con-
siderable excitement prevails there, how
ever, and throughout the city, and the COM
pany are arranging to afford the men the
fullest protection hereafter. A strong force
of officers will be kept on the ground, and
every effort made to discover the perpe-
traitors of last nights murder. The eoro-
ners jury is at work, and the States
attorney, and private attorney engaged by
the company is assisting at the examination.
The body of Thomas Walden has been for
warded to his brother, E. J. Walden, at An
derson, Ind. Barney Mulkern was shot in
the lung, and is badly wounded, but his re-
covery is expected. The four men who were
beaten during the afternoon while walking
in the country returned all pretty badly in
jured, but their wounds are not dangerous.
Nc arrests have been made yet but a num-
Der will be early tomorrow morning. The
men express their determination to remain
at their posts; and the company promises
them protection. Six or seven new men ar
rived to-day. President Rigely assured the
press representatives that he had sufficient
force to run all departments of the mill ON
double time. He spoke in the highest terms
of his present force. declaring them as good
men as he ever had. There is a strong feel
ing of Indignation in the community over
the affairs of yesterday and last night

SmaIlDox Cases,

Smallpox in the State has become widespread,
and it can no longer be concealed that in certain
sections it has become epidemic. The secretary
of the State Board of Health states that the
spread of the disease has become very alarming,

known, the afflicted localities are suppressing
all information in regard to the matter, and the

prevailing more less alarmingly at Evans
Vile, Columbus, Mitchell, North Vernon, and
neighhOring towns.

for several years past has been in the ticket
office at the Union Depot, is dangerously and

Mayor Harrison Proposes to Give This Term
a Moral Tone.

CHICAGO, April 10. Immediately after his
last election Mayor Harrison called the City
Hall reporters into his room and told them
he proposed to convince people that the
newspapers had traduced him during the
campaign by asserting that he gave free rein
to vice, and that he proposed to make his
present term moral one. He began work
in that direction to-day by ordering the
police to close every house of evil repute,
and all italian restaurants and disreputable
saloons on State street and Wabash avenue,
and on Clark street as far south as Polk,
which is nearly mile south of the business
center. The section covered by this order
has been the most dangerous and disreputa-
Bile portion of the city ever since the fire,
and almost wholly given over to criminals
and vicious practices.

Coal Miners, Strike Inevitahle.

PITTsBURG, April 13.-The attempt to settle
the differences existing between the coal
miners and operators by arbitration has
failed completely. The board met again to-
day, and after a session of several hours, adj
journed sine die, without having come to an
agreement. The committee appointed to ar
range the scale of wages reported that they
had been unable to prepare scale, and were
discharged The miners then made PROPOSE
ton to work the next six months at three
and quarter cents per bushel, which is one
fourth cent. lower than the present rate. but
the operators objected, and offered three
cents. A vote taken on both propositions
resulted in tie in each case, and finding all
efforts to effect compromise futile the
board adjourned. Operators seen after the
meeting state that a reduction to three cents
will now be ordered, and the miners assert
that under the circumstances strike will be
innvitable
