yesterday morning. three hundred armed
free laborers drove the convicts and guards
from the Tennessee Coal-mining Company's

these dispatches last night. During last
evening Adiutant-general Norman tele-
graphed the Lookout Mountain Guards and
Moerlin Zouazes. of Chattanooga. and the
Knoxville Rifles to be in readiness. Captain
Woolford replied for the Lookout Mountain
Guards, saying he would have forty five
men under arms. Captain Semmes. of the
Moerlein Zouayee. answered, putting the
number of available men at forty. Capt.
Patton of the Knoxville Rifles, said he had
forty men under arms. Two extra coaches
will be attached TO the morning train out
of Chattanooga. The Stone-rjver Guards
and the Washington Artillery have been
ordered to stand in readiness. Two thou
sand rounds of ammunition went down on
the train with the Governor last night.
The following message was received at
the State Capitol. to-day. from Coal Greek
tween discharged miners and convicts who
had been sent there to take their places.
To Governor Buchanan, Nashville:
We the miners. farmers, merchants and prop
erty-holders of Briceville and Coal creek and
vicinity, assembled to the number of nve hun
dred TO defend our families from starvation, and
property from depreciation. and our people from
contamination from the hordes OF convict labor
ers being introduced in our works. do hereby beg
you to prevent their introduction, and thus
avoid bloodshed, which is sure to follow If their
taking our livelihood FROM us is persisted in An
sWer BY A COMMITTEE.
The Governor and about 100 State SOL
diers in his command arrived at the mines
at noon. In speech to an angry mob this
afternoon. Governor Buchanan said that
he was not there to discuss the convict
lease law. but to see that the law was not
overridden. The discharged miners are
well armed, and the outcome is doubtful.

the press was exerted for good and that

lar paper should be he thought 1t was adj

not be read by every member of the editors

one of the most popular addresses of the
convention. The greatest difficulty. he
said, was that the country papers did not
reply to inquiries sent for advertising. He
thought foreign advertisements should get

THORNTON HAlNES VN TRIAL.
The Slayer of Ned flanagan Asks for Con-
tinuance Because Of lii Health.
Special to the indianapolis Journal.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal
HAMPTON, Va, July 16.-The trial of
Thornton Haines for the murder of Ned
flanagan was begun here this morning.
There was some little doubt expressed as
to whether Halnes would stand for trial
this morning. Judge Perks court is the
county court. but by the law of Virginia
any person who is charged with O crime,
the penalty for which is death, may elect
in which court he will be tried, the County
Criminal Court, or the Circuit Court Be-
fore the prisoner Is arraiRned aud called
upon to plead, he is asked by the clerk in
which court be desires to be tried. II
Haines elected to be tried in the Circuit
court the trail would stop right there and
the case would 60 over until the second
Monday III September. when the Circuit
Court meets.
After some tiresome prelimInaries Judge
GoOde. of the defense. arose and said that.
If it pleased the court, the defendant was
not ready TO stand trial because of his en-
to read an affidavit from the prisoner as to
his condition. Thornton Haines was not
in the court at the time, and the common
weaith's attorney, Montague. suggested
the prisoner was present. A slight delay
ensued while he was being brought in from
the Jail building in the rear of the court
house.
In few minutes Haines came in with his
brother, Lieut.. John HaInes and took
seat near his father, after shaking hands
with several members of his counsel. He
was immediately dressed in n light gray
summer suit. with white tie. He was
pale and looked as if his confinement had.
to some extent, disturbed his usual good
state of health. Judge G0ode then con-
tinued the reading of Hainess affidavit.
which was to the effect that the state o his
health was such as to imperil his life If he
were compelled to undergo the ordeal of
trial. Much testimony was adduoed to
prove the prisoners weakness. but the mo-
ton for a continuance was finally over
ruled. Judge GOode then asked for post
ponement of q week. but after much argu-
ment Judge Peek also Overruled the mo-
ton.
When the trial was resumed the defense
made another desperate effort for post
ponement by presenting an affidavit from
the prisoner. in which he claimed that
three vital witnesses could not be found.
The defense failed utterly to prove that
the witnesses were essential. and the trial
was ordered to proceed tomorrow morning

SPIES AND MISS VAN ZANDT.
The latest Story About the Erratic Girl and
tie Notorious Chicago Anarchist.

CHICAGO, July 16.-Nina Van Zandt, who
gained notoriety by marrying the Anar-
chist. August Spies. by proxy, will be mar
ried tonight to Stephano Malata. The
young couple will go to Italy on their we'd
ding tour. Yesterday ualata called On
Vice. president Bryan, of the worlds fair
board, with Nina. and asked for commits
sion. After Mr.. Bryan had said that no
commissions were gwen out now Miss Van
Zandt introduced herself. And then she
told Mr.. Bryan how Spies had won her-a
story until then untold. She had been two
years at Vassar College. she said. and was
at home on a vacation at the time of her
marriage to Spies Spies's father was a
forester. Spies himself. was born ont of
wedlock, the child of n barons daughter.
Nina's family had known his mother in
Germany. and was easily enlisted in a
shrewd plan to save the Anarchists neck.
His lawyers came to my mother" Miss
Van Zandt continued. land told her that if
an element of romance could be thrown
about August Spies IL might save his life
if should become bethrothed to him,
they said. For long. long time ! would
not consent. and then consented. For sew
enteen months torture-torture every day
and every hour-torture and shame. And
now what shall / dot Go away to some
other cOuntry-anywherer

Bryan.

in the case. No. no. was not even mar

the case.
What did you think of Spiesi" aske Mr..
BRYAN.
IL saw him so little He was not insane.
He was man of chaotic education-earn-
est. i believe. and full of brilliancy-who
had gone the wrong way.
The story moved Mr.. Bryan to write an
open letter commencing Mr.. Malata to
Italy in the name of the exposition. Capt.
Brack and Mr.. Solomon. attorneys for the
Anarchists, Indignantly and alphabetically
denied to q reporter the story told by Miss
Van Zandt. Mrs. Van Zandt, Nina's mother,
refused to talk more than to say that the
story is true.
Miss Nina Van Zandt and 8. Stephno Ma
lato were married tonight at the residence
of the brides parents. Justice Lyon per-
formed the ceremony. After the wedding
refreshments were served. The bride was
attired in white satin decollete, after the
Italian style of the thirteenth century,
with diamond and pearl ornaments, white
kid gloves. golden slippers and veil of tulle.
The twain left on a late train for New York
to take steamer for Liverpool Saturday,
going thence TO Palermo. the former home
of the groom. The Italian consul was pres
emit at the ceremony and few other friends
of the contracting parties. The couple ex
pect ultimately to make their home in Chi
cago.
