MEMPHIS, Tenn, Sept. 29.-Excite-
ment in Lee county, Ark, is running
high over the alleged murder of Thomas
Miller by negro strikers. Sheriff Wer-

Memphis yesterday. He was called
upon for assistance by the sheriff of Lee

with Winchesters, with instructions to
shoot if necessary.
A large squad of negroes now is sur
rounded near Peters Landing, Ark, by
100 armed men, and indications are that
a battle will follow. The negroes are
said to be we'll armed.
News has been received that a number
of the riotous negroes were deeoyed late

surrounded by the whites, and two of

There is some doubt as to the killing

PHGNIxvILLE, Pa, Sept. 29.-Early
In the morning number Of hands en-
ploped by the Phonixville Iron COM
pany commenced to lay tracks across
Main street to connect the works with
the Pennsylvania railroad.
By the time the sun came up the work
was well advanced, and the early risers
were surprised to see a hundred men at
work. Burgess s. R. March heard of
1t, and proceeding to the place ordered
cessation OF the work. But the men
didn't stop. Then the towns attorney,
II. FL. Gilkyson, had an interview with
Assistant Superintendent Houpt, of the
Iron company, and as a result of this
the work was stopped for the time, but
soon resumed.
The town council and several hundred
citizens gathered at the place, and all
sorts of threats were made by parties on
the two sides. Finally the Iron COM
pany's men saw that fight was immi-
nent, and the whistle of the steam mill
was blown. At this signal the whole
force of the workmen in the mill
stopped work and rushed to the assist
aIce OF the men at work ON the railroad.
A pitched battle then took place,
clubs, stones and other weapons being
used freely, the result of which was that
the, citizens finally proved the victors,
and the iron company's men were
driven off. Bruised heads and black
ened eyes are plentiful in the town.
The place is now guarded by special
officers of the borough, and Judge Wad-
dell has issued an injunction forbidding
the company to go on with the work.

Russia's Encroachments Must Ger

pared for Conflict in Asia.
LONDON, Sept. 19.-The st. James
Gazette considers the Asiatic outlook
the darkest on the political horizon, and
that it may result in serious outbreak.
China, England and Russia, the three
great territorial powers in Asa, it says,
can no longer avoid meeting in the
struggle for additional territory on the
part of Russia, and it remains to be
seen whether the meeting will be
friendly or the beginning of a prolonged
conflict. Notwithstanding these utter
ances of The Gazette, it Is not believed
in high official circles here that Russia
is anxious to do any serious fighting in
Asia. She is not prepared for it and
will not be until the Siberian railroad is
completed. Russia" said returned
oiliclal OF the East Indian civil service,
"has simply been caught by the Chinese

gresslon. She is always at 1t, and tbs
czar is always prepared to disavow it, if
it promises to end badly, or to take in
any new town or district that FROM

without exciting serious row." Ad-
vices from India, however, show that
the government there is on the qui vive
for any Russian trespass on British ter
