THE MILITIA CALLED OUT
Franklin is Once More the
Scene of Riot and
Bloodshed
Striking Miners Attack a Train
Containing Negro
Employees
Two Companies of the National
Guard Sent to the
Front

| SEATTLE, June ga contest took
place at Franklin between the striking
miners and Negroes, during which over
| 1000 shots were exchanged and one man
was killed and two wounded. From in
| formation received from the scene OF the
trouble it is learned that this morning at
about 2:20 O'Clock Mr.. Corey started with
| "a train of colored men from Franklin TO
Newcastle. Immediately after the train
had left and passed the bunkers nine
striking miners came up the hill from the
direction of the miners saloon in the flats.
They started on run as II they were de-
sirous OF catching the train and attempted
! to pass a coored guard named Ben Castor,
who halted them. They were all armed
with Winchesters and paid no attention
to the guard until the rear man had passed
him. He then turned about and saying
TO the guard, "Now you --- I've
got you," fired aud then ran. The ball
took effect in Gaston's right side, but Is
not dangerous wound. About "a dozen
shots were fired but no one was hurt by
them. The eXciiementswas great in the
camp for several hours and but for the in
tervention of the guards and Others the
colored men would have matters in their
own hands.
This evening at 7:4O o'clock, as the train
was arriving from Newcastle containing
several Of the guards who had accom-
panied the colorcd men to Newcastle, and
when nearing the bunkers, the miners
| fired into the train. The guards and Others
returned the fire, which created great eX-
citement and almost a stampede. The
! firing at once began all along the line on
| both sides until at least a thousand shots
| had been fired. As soon as the train ar
rived at the depot all the shooting ceased
on both sides, and then 1t was learned that
one man named Thomas Morris, a striker,
was killed and another striker named
Williams was dangerously wounded, also
two white women living in the bottom
were wounded seriously, but not dagger
ously. No one in the camp was hurt. 1t
| is evident that the strikers were lying in
ambush on the side of the hill above town
aud were fri g from that direction.
Morris and Williams were found on the
side of the hill in the rear of Manager
Williams home, where they had evidently
placed themselves with Il view TO shooting
| some OF the white men employed by the
| Oregon improvement company.
Great excitement prevailed among the
| cOlOred men, and IL was heard to rrstrain
them from further demonstrations on
| their part. Deputy Sheriff Ben Stretch
felt 1t Incumbent upon his part as a peace
officer to request the presence OF the me-
| litia and telegraphed for the same. 1t
was learned that the miners at Black Dia-
mond were greatly excited over the affair
and it was feared that further bloodshed
might occur. The whole affair is to be
deplored.
In answer to call two companies oil
militia were sent to Franklin and the
presence of the military has had the
effect of restoring quiet.

Italian parliament today was attended by
great excitement. Premier Rudini de-
clared In the chamber of deputies that the
government would firmly adhere to the
triple alliance. He added that Italy and
Europe might rest assured that If these
alliances were maintained the peace of
Europe would long be preserved. The
premier's remarks were greeted with loud
cheers from all except the extreme left.
Later In the discussion the Radicals
construed as offensive some illusions by
Signor Martini, and angry Radicals
sprang from their seats with violent
gestures, drowning the voice Of the
speaker with shouts.
Signor Cavallotte rushed at Martini
and would have struck him but for the
Interference of friends. The utmost con-
fusion prevailed, members acting in the
widest manner.
The president OF the chambers, after
vainly attempting to restore order, was
obliged to suspend the sitting In order TO
let tho members come to their senses.

SPANISH POLITENEss.
1t Seems to Consist Principally OF
Extravagant and Meaningless
Phrases

Extravagant and Meaningless
Phrases.
The Spanish lover has very pretty
way of saying. 81 throw myself at your
feet. senorita." Of course, he does
nothing of the kind, explains the De-
troit Free Press. Tie Spanish hostess
says to her friends, Possess yourself
of my house. 1t is all yours" but she
does not expect them to take actual
possession. The words are the flower
of chivalry. But an occasional visitor
takes these polite people at their word,
and they are too polite to explain the
mistake. When Gen. and Mrs. Grant
were in Cuba they were invited to dine
at the palace of the governor general in
Havana. In the evening ball was
gwen which was attended by the beauty
OF the city. Among the senoritas was
one lady who stood conversing with the
American generals wife. She was
superbly dressed and carried a mar
velouS fan which had descended to her
from her great-grandmother. 1t was a
costly affair of carving. lace and dia-
monds. Mr.. Grant admired it, upon
which the Spanish lady at once handed
it to her with the usual remark; ut is
yours. madame, with greatest felicity.
DO me the favor to possess yourself of
It," MIR. Grant was delighted; she
warmly thanked the lady and kept the
fan; nor would the dismayed senorita,
who had lost an heirloom, permit the
mistake to be announced.
