FIGHT WITH OUTLAWS.
Kentucky State Troops Have n Battle With
Band of Desperadoes.

Kentucky State Troops Have q Battle With
Band of Desperadoes.
LOUISVILLE, KY, April ia special
from Harlan Court House, says:
A deadly fight occurred yesterday
morning at leo o'clock, seventeen miles
east of here, pin the Black mountains,
between a detail of the State troops,
consisting of sixteen privates, Lieu
tenant Milton and Sergeant Pullian, and
about thirty outlaws, who were fortified
in an old barn. Five of the soldiers
were wounded. 1t is not known how
many of the outlaws we're killed, as
they still have possession of the barn
Corporal Blanton was sent in after re-
Inducements and knows but little, as
he left Immediately after the firing be-
gan. The troops have the barn sur
rounded, and it will be impossible for
those on the inside to make their es-
cape, and the only two roads which
lead from the place of action are cut
off by pickets who are instructed to
allow no one to pass toward town, as it
was thought best to keep the news of
the conflict from the people about here
until after the reinforcements had
reached the place.
1t is believed that severe fight will
take place as soon as the additional
troops reach the place, for the outlaws
are fortified, we'll armed with Winches-
ter rifles and swear that they will not
surrender, and the soldiers are deter
mined and want revenge for those who
have been shot down

general trade, and even at Chicago ad-
verse weather influences have had the eff
feet on several lines notably millinery
and clothing There have been slight
gains at Memphis, st. Paul and Omaha,
but at Cincinnati and Kansas City the
situation remains practically un-
changed. The industrial outlook is less
favorable. For the seventeen days of
April there we're 10 Strikes 21,542 strik-
ers and 10000 employees idle in conse-
quence reported, as compared with
6i strikes and 12, 1893 strikers for
the whole of April, 1889. The
snow blockades on the Pacific roads in
February decreased net earnings. The
gain in net on 106 roads during that
month was only 5 per cent, as against
Is per cent in January over last year.
For the first time in some months the
coal roads group showed gain in net
over the preceding year. For two
months the net earnings show gain of
9.3 per cent over 1889 for a like period.
There is no change in the generally
unfavorabie position of the iron

of view of the makers. Steel rails are

The Trouble in the MOneg Market.

New York, Aug. 27.-Sec. Window
thinks the financial situation serious
enough to warrant his remaining in town
to gain full views of prominent brokers
and bank presidents as to what steps the
government should take to relieve the
money market from the chance OF re-
currence of the stringency that has Sc
riously affected it recently.
A proposition of J. A. Berwick, OF the
Standard Oil company, is that in case the
situation is not sufficiently improved by
the purchase of the $20,000,000 worth Of
A. per cents, the secretary of the treas
ury should anticipate years interest
met with approval.
Shortly before noon yesterday a num-
ber of financiers who have been men
toned as having discussed the situation
with the secretary went to the Fifth
Avenue hotel, where they will again re
view the situation and discuss with the
secretary means of affording relief. The
gentlemen generally admit that the
secretary is fully conscious of the gravity
of the situation, and is prepared to &C
literally. They seem to have con
fdence in his intention, and say he is a:
fully informed on the situation as the.
are.
