DROVE THE C0NViCTS OUT
BAD WORK AT TENNESSEE
COAL MINES.
StOckades Burned and the Con-
victs sent Out of the Country
The Cause Was That COnvicts
Were Getting Most of the Work.

NASHVILLE, Tenn, Aug. 15.-The i'll
feeling which has existed at Tracy City
between the free miners and convicts cul-
minated Saturday when the miners,
well armed, captured the stockadc.
They took the stores OF the company
out. The convicts were then loaded on
a train and started for Nashville. The
stockades were burned and the telc-
graph wires were cut.
Today quiet prevails at Tracy City.
though much anxiety is shown by the
miners as to what steps the mine own
crs and State authorities will take. Cow
ernor Buchanan announces his determi-
nation to use every lawful means in his
power to preserve ORDER when applica-
tion in proper and legal form is made to
him by the civil authorities. The Ten
ncssee Coal iron and railroad co-officials
intimate that they will reopen the
mines in few DAYS, so soon as they can
organize force to work the coal ovens,
and that the convicts may not be used
again at these mines.
Trouble is feared at Inman near South
Pittsburg and reinforcement OF guards
has been hurried there and more will be
sent it needed. The situation at all the
mines and coke ovens where convicts are
worked is not encouraging and a spirit
of resistance seems prevalent in all the
mining districts.
Neither convict lesses nor the authori-
tics have decided upon plan of action
and the miners at Tracy City arc in full
control with plenty Of arms.
CHATTANOOGA, Aug. 15.-Early this
morning about 500 miners met at White
well, Tenn, few miles from lnman,
where $50 convicts were at work in the
iron mines of the Tennessee Iron and
railway company and proceeded in a
body toward lnman on train on which
was party OF unarmed men going to
lnman to increase the guards at the
stockade. The miners would not let the
train proceed any further and held the
guards. About so miners took charge
of the guards while the remainder, about
400, went forward determined to burn
the stockade ard turn the convicts over
to the guards, put them all on a train
