Send Soldiers to Protect Convict Miners.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. July 15.-An attempt
TO operate the coal mines at Briceville.

led to serious trouble. The mines at Brice-
Vile. which is only about four miles from

the price of the labor. as the owners say,
there was no money in them for the owners
of the mines The Briceville mines are
owned by the Knoxville Iron Company.
which now leases the men at the Coal
Creek branch prison.

Dor of the State is opposed to the leasing OF

SAN FRANCISCO. Cal, July 15.-The Ex-
aminer has an important communication
from Its correspondent at SaltOn, who
made the trip by boat over the flooded
district. Six miles from HanlOnds the
party left the Colorado river and turned
northwest into wide slough. After
proceeding twenty-five miles they
ran into laguna of the Colorado
river and this was the first place where
they saw water leaving the river ON the
way to the desert. 1t seemed to be back
ing out in many places, and the corre-
spOndent expresses the opinion that the
river will eventually change it's channel
and throw q great volume of water into
the desert Further down a stream came
in from the lake. and few miles
further on still another. supposed to be
Carresc0 creek. While the water seemed
to he falling there is q great volume which
must apparently come in from various
lakes along the route, and the correspond
ent believes the channel is permanently
cut and that the desert will always con-
tain water, except in the lowest stages of
the Colorado river.
