ST. LOUIS MERCHANTS
Demand That the Trouble on the
Missouri Pacific Shall Cease.
Military Power of the United States In-
voked If Necessary-A Riot of COnsid-
cradle Dimensions.

ST. LOUIS, March 24.-The Board of Di-
rectors and Transportation Committee of
the Merchants Exchange of this city, in
joint meeting to-day, adopted resolutions
demanding that the strike upon the Mis-
souri, Pacific railroad and the Gould South
west System of railroads, shall cease,
and as h means to this end,
that the strikers upon these roads shall
either return to their former positions or
discontinue hindering those who are will
ing to work. The resolutions also invoke
the civil and military powers of the cities,
counties and States, and, if necessary, Of
the United States, to enforce the laws to
put an end to the present deplorable con-
dition of affairs.
ST. LOUIS, Mo-, March PA freight
train of fifteen cars was made up this
morning at the Union Depot and started
over the Missouri Pacific tracks in the di-
rection of Seventeenth street, arriving at
that point the crowd called upon the en-
gineer and fireman to leave their posts,
which they did. The mob here soon be.
came SO dense that it was deemed advisa-
BILE, to clear the yards, and the
police were summoned. Soon force
of about 15O commanded by the Chief
of police and all the captains, arrived at
the scene. The crowd was then ordered to
disperse and upon their refusing to do so
the police made charge upon them, hoping
to drive them away without Using their
clubs. The latter alternative, however,
became necessary to resort to, the mob still
resisting During the struggle which ensued
several of the strikers were badly beaten
by the police, some of whom were in turn
badly bruised from rocks thrown by the
mob. After brief fight the crowd was dis
persed and driven from the yards. Another
engine was then procured, which, after
being coupled to the abandoned freight
train, drew it from the scene of the riot
under guard OF about fifty police, who
accompanied it as far as the city limits no
interference having been met with. How
far beyond this point the train will be able
to proceed can not be conjectured, for the
strikers may al any time render
its progress impossible. Just after the
freight train had gotten away, carry
ing large portion of the police force, the
mob, numbering about one thousand men,
made a rush for the machine shops of the
Missouri Pacific railroad to take possession
of them The courage, however, of ma.
jority of them failed, and only about forty
proceeded beyond half way, and they soon
abandoned the idea and dispersed A dis
patch from Kirkwood, twelve miles west
of here, says the freight train passed that
point at III 80 a. IN.

A Volcanic Phenomena.

SAN FRANcIsCo, CAL. March 2-Ad-
vices from the Sandwich Islands, received
by steamer Mararoa yesterday states that
the volcanic phenomena which extended
over March ), 6, {, and which were accom-
panied by large number of shocks as of
earthquake, resulted in the total disappear
ance of New Lake and Halemaumau, two
pits in the crater of the volcano Kilauea,
and the extinction of the fire in them.
These phenomena are believed by many
to be the precursor of a grand outburst in
the near future, either in Kilauea or Mauna
Loa Others passing their views on the
observations of Prof. Agassiz believe the
disappearance of fire is prelude to the ex-
tiuction of Kilauea

A WASHINGTON special of the 24th instant says; The President had before him to-day the case of the three Mormon Bishops who were convicted some Is months ago in Arizona Of unlawful cohabitation and are now under sentence of three years at hard labor ID the Detroit penitentiary and a fine S5O0 each. It seems that these bishops could not be convicted of polygamy under the Edmunds law, and hence were tried under . ter ritorial statute against unlawful cohabitation. The attorney gene raj has examined into the facts and law and recommended their pardon, and the President under these circumstances, will doubtless exercise executive clemency.

 Candidates for legislative, judicial and executive offices will be nom mated and doubtless elected as thero seems to be no organized op- position to the democracy in our county. It behooves the party to proceed in their deliberations with extreme care and caution since their responsibility is greater than it would otherwise be. Only good men. worthy and well qualified, should be placed upon the ticket which the voters of our county will be invited to support by their suffrages on the second of Novem- Der. Since the democracy is in the majority and success seems to be so surely foreshadowed the par ty can well afford to be magnan;- nous and extend courtesy and consideration to those of opposite -paiiticaI faith. By whatever name we are called, every true and hon. est voter should seek to clothe with official responsibility only the best and most competent men Tn the county. and if the convention should conclude that some one not in political sympathy should be placed on their ticket by all means let it be done.
