MINERS MEET.
They Are as Determined as Ever That
the Convicts Shall Not Work.

They Are as Determined as Ever That
the Convicts Shall Not Work.
KNOXVILLE, Tenn, July PA meet
ing Of miners was held at Coal Creek
during the afternoon. When the men
assembled there were few hot-heads,
who began to talk about fire, but they
were outsiders and not miners. The
miners leaders took possession of the
meeting and would not allow such talk.
There were speeches by number of
leaders of conservative tone, and of
advising against any act or violation Of
law. The men said they wanted the
convicts sent away and nothing more
or less. Finally resolution was unani-
mously passed to appoint committee
of five to go to Knoxville, and Nash
vile, if necessary, to confer with Gov
ernor Buchanan and arbitrate the pres
ent difficulties. A resolution was unani-
mously passed, each man pledging him
self, on his honor, that not one dollars
worth OF property should be destroyed,
and the companys property should be
guarded. 1t was further determined
that no one should offer violence to any
one
Except in Self-Defense.
There is sense of relief and quiet since
the meeting. The miners seem to feel
that they are taking the proper course.
There was some talk of attacking the
troops coming to assist the leaders. The
meeting has resulted in good and the
men are now quiet. They are as deter
mined as ever that no convicts shall
work here and say they will release all
that come just as soon as the troops
leave. A telegram was received from
the Kentucky side at Jellico Offering q
large number of men in. case help was
needed. The reply was for the men to
hold themselves in readiness in case
they were called for. Nearly every
man present had double -barrelled
shotgun in his hand, few Winchesters
and no small number of revolvers. The
meeting was held in the grove near the
Knoxville Iron company's mine.

Yesterday said that the purchase OF the Druid cotton
duck mills mt Woodbury., Baltimore County, Nd. by
Theodore and James r. Cooper the directors VINO con-
troll the WOodberry Manufacturing Company, had rev'ved
the rumors Of cotton duck trust to control the manu-
facture Of the goods.
