the 18th inst. says:
Yerterday afternoon about 200 recently dis
charged railroad laborers boarded west-bound
passenger and mail train at Perdeton anil In
sisted upon being brought to this city without
paying fares. The officials refused this de
inand and ordered the crowd to get of the
train. The mob, however, dsfied the officials
aud took possession Of the train. The state
authorities we're called on, but the sheriff. with
large posse. was unable to assist, as the train
was on the Umatilla Indian reservation, aud
the state authorities were without jurisdiction.
The crowd then took possession OF the train
and defled the officials. General Miles was
telearaphed for aid. He Immediately ordered
two companies from Fort Walla Walla to the
scene, but even then the rioters refused Ia
yield and were ret orced by about 800 rouphs
from Pendleton who came to the assistance OF
the rioters, overpowering the soldiers The
mob had now swelled to about 200 men, and
riot ran high. No blood had been shed, and Of.
acals are doing ali in their power to prevent
further trouble.
