Finally Adjusted.
KNOXVILLE, Tenn, July 25.-The sit
uation yesterday morning looked to
those on the inside more dangerous
than at any time since the beginning of
the Briceville agitation, and cool headed
men in Knoxville wore grave counte-
nances In the afternoon, however,
the miners committee met in a room in
the Lamar house, and in half an hour
the trouble was ended, although it was
later in the day when the fact became
known.
Hon. Dennis Leahy, at the beginning
of the session, presented the draft of
series of resolutions which were unan-
imously received. These were present
ed to the Knoxville committee of citi-
zens and by them approved and signed.
Audience was then had with Gov. Bu-
chanan and Attorney-Gene Pickel.
To say that the opportunity to obtain
peace without bloodshed was jumped
at puts the thing mildly, for '1ove
meeting followed in which all took
part.
The basis of settlement is that the con-
victs are to be permitted to work with
out interference until the legislature
can be convened in extra session and
takes action in the matter. The miners
in the meantime will not interfere anG
the militia are to be withdrawn.

she was one of the few government ves-

part in the blockade of New Orleans
and was the next ship to Farraguts
