settlement of the railroad difficulties is as
far off as ever.

material for the bituminous pavement is
taken out, is closed, and over 100 men and
teams are thrown out of employment. Be-
sides, the farmers for distance of twenty
| miles have to go ont of their way over ten
| miles to reach this city. Much Indignation
exists at Battle Mountain in consequence.
Last evening seven armed men, wearing
| masks and carrying rifles went to the house
OF Robert Majors, Superintendent of the
petroleum NINE, and proposed that he
should go with them and blow up the house
where Henry Cowell, one of the owners of
the land and very wealthy man, was sun
posed to be staying, and also to burn up all
the fences on the land. Majors dissuaded
them from carrying out their designs and
they left, uttering threats against the OBJ

fenced in has been in use for over thirty
years.
