The Civil war M Belgium.

CHARTEROI. March %. - city to
day is a vast military camp, from which
flying columns are operating in all direc-
tons. 1t is believed now that the worst
is over. The government has authorized
the peaceable inhabitants of the city to
arm themselves and to use every means in
their power to defend their domiciles,
There is a more confident feeling, Civil
ian patrols and troops are overmastering
the rioters. Miners in Fenn and in Bor-
image districts have gone out on a strike
and have destroyed the residence of the
mine manager by dynamite. In these
districts there have already been several
conflicts between strikers and troops, and
many have been killed on both sides,
Reinforcements have been sent to the
scene from Mons.

town from pillage. They drove an army
of rioters away by main force. dispensing

formed by citizens in other places threat
ened by strikers.
The miners at Antoing struck to-day
and wen: to rioting. They formed into a
body and marched towards Journal for
the purpose OF looting the place. Troops
sailed out from that place to meet them
and a conflict followed, in which many
persons were wounded, Strikes are
spreading in the coal mining district of
Borinage and the authorities there fear
trouble. The miners of that district re-
ceive but SO per week. Several Anarch-
list leaders were arrested at Chartered to
day.
The burial Of the rioters who were
shot by the troops is proceeding quitely
at Verviers. The Socialists are greatly
enraged because of the energetic action
of the military in suppressing the dis
turbance. As as act of revenge they
threaten to raid the extensive cloth works
which are a conspicuous feature OF that
town.

strikers made an attack on the Mariemtnt
c%olliery to day and were fired upon by
troops. The number killed and wounded

not due to political causes. OF ninety
persons arrested here in connection with
the disturbances, one half are old c%onvicts

New YoRK, March 26.-As the follow
ing telegram from Gould to Hoxie seems
to have been misunderstood by Powderly,
it is worth repetition :
II. M Horie, General Manager. 81
Louis In resuming the movement OF
trains on the Missouri Pacific and the
employment of labor in the several de.
parlments of the company, you will give
preference to u late employees, whether
they are members of the Knights of La.
Dor or not, except hat you will not en-
ploy any person who has injured the COM
pany's property during the late strike
nor will we discharge n persons who
have taken service with the company
during the late strike. We see no objec-
ton to arbitrating any differences between
the employees and the company, past OIL
future. Hoping that above will be salts
factory, | remain yours very truly,
JAY GOULD, President.
In an interview this morning, Gould
said The above telegram was prepared
before my conference with Powderly yes
terday, and was not the result ~ofanything
Powderly said. In it is expressed the
stand which the Missouri Pacific
has taken from the beginning, that is,
the company is always ready to arbitratC
any differences that it may have with its
own employees. Powderly seems to have
assumed from hat telegram that | have
agreed to the plan submitted by the exec
utive board of Knights of Labor, Satur'
day, providing for the appointment of an
arbitration committee, three members Of
which are to be appointed by myself and
| three by the Knights of Labor, these
| Jointly to choose the seventh member
Now, | most emphatically deny that there
was anything in my telegram to Hoxie, oil
that there was anything said at the con.
ference yesterday To warrant anyone ii
believing that | for a moment assented Il
any such plan. | will appoint no mem
bers Of any arbitration committee; the
whole matter rests in the hands of Hoxie

ton, | will make no objection, but thu

p,scusslon on tha ARMY Rill.

WASHINGTON, March 29.-After the
routine ofthe morning business Logan's
army bill was placed before the senate.
Logan cent TO the desk and had read a
letter from Gen. Sheridan favoring the
proposed increase. Mr.. Logan favored it.
Mr.. Plumb opposed it. He thought it
singular while we vera 30 thoroughly at
peace a measure Of this character should
hear the suggestion that an increased
army was necessary to put down local
troubles among our own people. 1t
would not do to instil into the peoples
mind this lesson of force as a remedy for
such troubles. The present position was
one calculated to develop more frills, fur
bellows, shoulder straps and decorations.
Mr.. Dawes opposed the bill. The
control through an army was not the con-
troll desired. Self control. Dawes said.

see them through all their differences.
Mr.. Teller saw no necessity for an in.

New YORK. March 29.-McDoSell

time and took Messrs. Hays and Bailey
with him to Gould's office, where they are
now discussing the situation. Gould has

ATcHIsoN, Kas, March % The
strike situation here to day was very
serious. The strikers were not satisfied
with simply killing the engines, but
ditched trains, tempered with the
switches and soaped the track. The
sheriff and a posse manned a train this
morning and ran the gauntlet, barely es-
Gaping n misplaced switch and sent it
safely west. In the afternoon two trains
arrived. The switch was thrown ahead Of
the second one and the rails smeared with
soap, so it was impossible to stop the
train, which was ditched. The engine
was then dismautled. The men were
more reckless than at any time auring the
strike. They declare Powderly has sold
them out. Warrants are out for about
100 strikers. The sheriff has a disci-
plined force Of deputies and thinks he can
make the arrests.

NEw YORK, March %. The spirit Of
exultation which filled the hearts of the

iety. When VIM. o. Mcdowell called at
Gould's office at $50 this morning he was
not as favorably impressed with his recep-

him at Gould's house ON Sunday. Gould

Mcdowell at once returned to the Aston
