ST. LOUIS, Dec. 7.-Adjutant Gener
al Jameson left st. Louis this morn
ing for the scene Of the labor distur-
bance at the mining town of Beyier,
Missouri, in response TO telegraphic
orders from Governor Moorehouse.
General Jameson stated to an AssO-
ciated Press reporter that the militia
would not be called out unless 1t was
found absolutely necessary to take
such a step. He is familiar with
affairs at BeVier. having been called
there once before during the present
strike.
News from the scene of the riot at
Bevier is very meagre, but it is known
that order has been at least temporarily
restored. w. B. Porterfield, night OPP
orator at Bevier, left his instrument in
the depot when the shooting COM
menced and took the first train east.
There are many conflicting statements
as to how the shooting started, but the
preponderance of evidence goes to show
that the Swede element were the ag-
gressorS, particularly those in the
Loomis and Snively mines. Charles
Thombold, the only man known to have
been shot, was still alive this morning.
but is not expected to live. Sheriff
LYDIA is at Bevier with posse, but he
admits that he is powerless and so no
titled the governor. The sheriff is of
the opinion, however, that the militia
would accomplish only temporary good.
The latest adviceS from BeVier are
to the effect that an armed neutrality
still exists and no fresh violence has
occurred, but an outbreak is liable &c
occur at any minute. A gentleman
who passed through Bevier after the
riot states that the report that some
| 800 or 1000 shots were fired was moi
exaggerated, as is evidenced by the
bullet perforated buildings i'll the vicin
| ity of the depot. Dozens of windows
were shattered and the front of thu
postoffice building was riddle,
with lead. The front of til,
building in which the Swedes
sought refuge WAS fearfully torn anC
riddled, and the wonder is that ONLY
one man was shot. In fact that por
tion of BeVier near The depot resem
bled battle ground and hundreds o
cartridges were picked up in the street
