The Mob Said to Have Prepared to Dy-
Mantle the Militia
On Coal rex the miners have. it is re.
ported, drilled holes in the rock of the
bluff under which the troops will have to
pass, and have loaded them with dyna-
mite, which they intend to explode and
wipe the whole militia off the face of the
earth, if they ever get that far. This is
given for what it is worth. a good many
people profess to believe that it is so, and
a captain of one of the militia COM
panies says upon his word of honor that
he saw the h. 'es AID that one of the min
ers, who is his friend, told him that the
miners intended throwing the whole bluff
down on them. The thirteen companies
here, the same number that were in the
Birmingham riot, are pretty badly excited.
They, however, all swear that they go with
the intentiC of fighting, and, if neces-
sary, will re-, ain forever at Coal Creek.
Cha rges Against the Soldiers.
Although denied by majority of the
soldiers who were forced to retreat frcn
Briceville Monday, the charges that the
troops invited the attack of the miners is
doubtless IT,, and serious discussions N
the ranks of ne Moerlin zouaves, of Chat
tanooga, is one of the results. Lienten-
ants Kenner and Mccormick have il
formally rendered their designations and
make charges against Lieutenant Lauter
and three privates of unsoldierly conduct.
Lieute nant Lauter in published card de-
nounces as false the charges against the
privates and against himself as lies made
from whole cloth.
In sympathy with the Rioters.
The charges in brief are as follows: The
first members otthe Zouavesl three called
on one of the miners at Briceville Sunday,
and after partaking freely of liquor stated
that their comrades would refuse to fire if
commanded to do so, and throw down
their arms. They said they were in SYM
patty with the miners and would not
fight them. Lieutenant Lauter did worse
than they, however. He constantly talked
to the men of his company about the mat
ter, arguing that the miners were right
and that he, for one, would not fight"
-Four Thousand Well Armed Men.
II is said that the miners who are under
arms at the mines are not as pacific as
their committee here. A dispatch from
Briceville says 4 200 well armed miners at
Briceville and Coal Creek are waiting for
the militia A bloody battle will certainly
occur if the troops go there Advices
from various points in Tennessee, Vir-
gnia and Kentucky indicate that the
rioters can on short notice raise force of
10000 efficient men. Monday night the
rioters formed on Walden's ridge and pre-
pared to roll down huge bolders on the
soldiers should they approach The tell
graph wires are still intact, but it is hard
to get word from Coal Creek

fartars, who concealed the rifles in 9
cavern In the mountains, about seven
miles from the mines. There was nc
fear of the Tartars betraying them, as
Their own safety depended on Their
secrecy, and terrible punishment
awaited them if detected with gold
IN their possession. On a SATURDAY.
afternoon in the latter end of June,
1900, when the work of the day was
ended, the Circassians quietly left
the mines in small parties, going in
diHerent directions. This was done
without exciting any suspicion, and
they met in the evening of the sane
day at a rendezvous, ravine in the
mountain about six miles from the
mines, Ill southerly direction. A
stud Of spare horses was kept at pas
lures In the forest several miles from
the place of meeting. About dusk
large party of Ciroassians proceeded
towards this place and three were
sent on in advance, carrying their RI
fles, as if returning from the hunt.
The orse-keepers were driving the
animals into a corral to secure them
ior the night. When this was accom-
plished they saw three rifles pointed
at them, and were told they would be
shot If they attempted to escape. A
shrill whistle called up the other ex-
lies, who instantly secured the three
men. The hest horses were at once
selected out of a stud of between
three and four hundred, and as two
of their attendants were great hunt
ers and we'll acquainted with the
mountain regions around, the Circas-
SLAMS carried them all away to act as
guides to the Chinese frontier, and in
order to prevent the discovery of
their means of fight till they had got
good start, they turned the remain
der of the stud out of the corral and
drove them into the forest to make it
appear that they had broken loose,
and that the absent men were search
ing for them. They departed, carry
ing off with them fifty fine horses.
No time was lost in reaching their
friends in the glen, who received
them with shouts of joy. An hour
before midnight, when the moon
arose to light them on their way, they
commenced their fight.

GRANTS CREEK, March %, 1891.

CALDWELL TRIBUNE: The survey
from Caldwell to the Payette canyon
for railroad has been completed. A
most feasible route was found. 1t is
fifteen miles shorter from the mouth
of Succor creek to the canyon than
the North & South survey and the
maximum grade is but A feet to the
mile, while on the former survey it is
66 feet. A company called the De
Lamar, Caldwell and Payette Valley
R. r., is being formed, with a capital
stock of S3,O00,000. 1t is divided iu-
to shares of $40 each, and a large
number of shares have already been
taken. There is no doubt but that
this survey will become valuable, as
it is the best and shortest route to the
forests of the Payette. 1t is far
ahead of the survey of the Idaho
North & South railroad, not only saw
ing fifteen miles, but lowering the
maximum grade twenty-five feet to
the mile. The scheme is to organize
a company, incorporate and file all
necessary papers, and then when the
North & South railroad is built, to
meet them half way. This survey
practically settles the question as to
where the North and South will cross
the Short Line. The original survey
made them cross nine miles below
town, but this new route is far supe-
rior, and there is no doubt but that it
will be accepted when the road is
built. Just so sure as the North &
South railroad is built, it will cross
the Oregon Short Line at Caldwell.
We have the key to the situation.
The new company will perfect organ
ization in day or two.
