AT FORT WORTH.

On Sunday everything was quiet
at Fort Worth. 1t was rumored
that an attempt would made to des-
troy the Gazette Office, W. A. Hoff-
mans establishment, Lakes hard
ware store, Bateman Brothers
grocery house and the Traders
National bank, on account Of their
activity against the strike some
time ago. The blocks on which
these buildings are located were
closely guarded by armed men on
Sunday night. A force of about
500 militia men and artillery ar
rived during Sunday and the rail-
roads were closely guarded. Adj
jutant-general King and attorney
general Templeton were both
there. Templeton said: The
authority of the state has been in
voked, and 1t will be rendered I;
trans must and will be moved.
Governor Ireland left Austin on
Sunday and arrived at the Fort on
Monday. The excitement among
the people was intense, and the de-
termination is that business on the
railroads must be resumed. The
dead body of Frank Pierce, a
striker, was found and brought TIC
town. Saloons and drinking hous-
es of every description were order
ed closed until Wednesday at 6 p.
m. Dick Townsend, the murder
ed deputy sheriff, was buried Sun
day afternoon, hundreds following
his remains to the grave. Officer
Sneed will probably recover, as
will also officer Hulford. Mace
the striker was no better. Several
companies of state rangers have
been ordered to Fort Worth,
among them the two companies
from Harold. 1t appears that the
strikers were endeavoring to mass
at Fort Worth and a considerable
number are already there; they
evince a good deal of determine
ton. A warning was issued to
freight train-men not to risk their
lives.

The Fort Worth Gazette refer
ring to the outbreak on Saturday
says of the strikers: "Now that
the latter have taken the aggres-
sIve, there is but one course to
pursue. At whatever cost, against
whatever opposition, the law must
be enforced and vindicated. There
may have been wrongs there may
have been acts of injustice and OPP
preston at which manhood re-
volts; but there has been nothing
ola nature to palliate murderous
assault upon the guardians Of the
law. No such blow has ever been
delivered at the cause of the strik.
ers, as this, ~ men identified with
that cause. They have put against
the strikers every man who is not
an apoligost for murder and an
archy." This is strong language
part of the Gazette, but 1T is the
truth. We must have the laws
obeyed or anarchy will run riot.
Conservative men everywhere are
in favor Of the law being upheld at
all hazards. The issue has been
made and the law must be enforc-
cd.

IT seems that on Saturday last
Messrs. Turner and BalIy, OF the
chief executive committee of the
Knights of Labor, succeeded in
getting an interview with General
Manager Hoxie, of the Missouri
Pacific railway, on Saturday.
Hoxie said he would not talk to
them as a committee, but he was
ready to stand by the terms of his
telegram to Hopkins last week,
viz: To re-employ such knights
of Labor as the company needed,
1t, the company, to select the men
it wanted, and that he was ready
to arbitrate with the company's
employees. 1t would seem that
Hoxie is right in contending that
men who have left tho company's
employment and gone out are no
longer employees and therefore
have no differences with the COM
panv to arbltrate.

THE SANTA FE SOLD.

The Galveston News of the LIST
inst. has a special from New York
stating that Mr.. Geo. Sealy and
Judge Balllnger had returned from
Boston, whittier they had been per-
fecting the details of the purchase
of the Santa Fe railway by the
syndicate controlling the Atchison,
Topeka and Santa Fe railway. 1t
Is understood that all the details
have been arranged, and the trans
fer of the Galveston road may now
be considered a settled fact. The
News refers to this sale in q
! double-leaded editorial, and re-
CARDS it as the best thing that has
happened for Galveston IN many
years. The purchasing road Is
owned and controlled by Boston
men with unlimited capital. They
already have in the Atchison,
Topeka and Santa Fe system 2799
miles otroad. The Galveston road
will carry into this system 1000
miles OF road, which indicates the
construction by the Gulf, Colorado
and Santa Fe OF $50 miles more of
road. This will make 3799 miles
of road operated through the con-
solIdation, which will doubtless
prove, says the News, one of the
strongest cards ever worked in
her behalf. 1t means also the es-
adjustment of a steamship line be-
tween Galveston and Liverpool,
owned and operated by the Boston
railway syndicate, and the intro
duction of important commercial
and financial interests in Galveston
and an early Improvement of Gal
weston harbor. As matter OF
course the Gulf, Colorado and
Santa Fe railway will speedily be
extended to a connection with the
Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe
road, which will give Texas an
Independent trunk line north
and east via Kansas City and
entirely Independent of the Gould
system, which now controls both
the trunk lines to st. Louis. This
in itself Is very important mat
ter for Texas, as it will have ten
dency to lower freight tariffs and
facilitate shipments, and with deep
water at Galveston the state will
speedily enter upon a newssera of
progress and prosperity and her
development in the future will far
exceed anything in the past. The
progress of the state will not be
confined to any particular locality,
but will be general and the people
of Brennan should be wide awake
and keep up with the procession
as the new road will give us direct
communication with the north,
giving us the same advantage as
Dallas, Fort Worth, Houston or
any competing point in the state.
This will be a great advantage and
should not be lost sight of.

SECRETARY TURNER, of the gen.
eral executive committee of the
Knights of Labor was in st. Louis
Saturday. After having seen
Hoxie, Turner is quoted as saying:
off we cannot make terms, as 1
am now satisfied is the case, they
will have to retire quietly to their
homes and seek other employ
ment." Mr.. Turner thinks it is
the settled policy OF the Missouri
Pacific railway to take none of the
strikers back. If the strikers act
wisely they will take Turner's ad-
vice and return home and seek
other employment.

Had the militia been ordered to
Fort Worth on Thursday or Friday
the bloodshed of Saturday might
have been averted. The trouble
was brewing for three days. Ten
days ago Governor Ireland issued
q proclamation to the strikers to
behave themselves, and thcn like
the valient Knickerbocker COVER
nor of New York two centuries
ago, retired to his mansion. Some
one is to blame, and it now looks
as though Governor Ireland had
been too slow for the emergency.

The strike continues on so fal
as the strikers are concerned, but
the railroads at st. Louis and Kan
sas City have resumed business
At East st. Louis some troubles
existed, but it was thought that on
Saturday business would be re-
sumed. Mr.. Hoxie telegraphs from
st. Louis that the worst is over
and in few days everything will
be running smoothly.
