City and Inman TO Be Returned.

Special 10 the Indianapolis Journal.
NASHVILLE, Tenn. Aug. 2i.-The six
hundred convicts recently sent back here
from Oliver Springs. Tracy City and Imam
by rioters were to-day formally ordered re-
turned to these branch prisons. They will
be protected by numerous guards. The
officers of the Tennessee Coal, Iron and
Railroad Company and the board of prison
inspectors met again to-day to con-
sider the answer of the lessee
to the orders recently made by
the inspectors. After the consultation
the board of inspectors issued q statement
in substance as follows: That the board
had no power to entertain voluntary
proposition for the cancellation of the
lease contracts; that, reserving TALL illegal
questions for adjudication by the courts
and for the purpose of carrying out the
lease contract under the existing law, the
board accepts the proposition of the lessee,
and hereby orders that the oonvlcts be re-
turned to the branch prisons from which
they were removed at the earliest practi-
cable moment. This means that the State
will guard and protect the lessee against
violence from mobs and that the mines
will soon be re-oponed and the conyicts
put at work.
Captain Morton, commander of Morton's
Battery. has returned from Coal Creek to
confer with Governor Buchanan concern
ing affairs there. Captain Morton thinks
the situation is yet quite serious. and that

General Carnes had information that be-
tween 1900 and 5000 miners were congre-
eating at Jellico. on the Kentucky side,
and there was danger of them making q
raid on Coal Creek at any time. Captain
Morton believes that seventy five or ono
hundred miners have been killed. He said
that several members of sheriffs' posses
were still missing. but it 10 not known
whether they were killed or not.

sioner of Mines and Labor. went to Coal
Creek to-day, where he surrendered to
General Carnes. He gave bond for his ap-
pearance from day to day; The finding of
Ford to Govefnor Buchanan last Thursday,
was the text of tC-day's sensation. In
this message Ford informed the Gov
ernor that the warden of the branch
prison at Coal Creek was willing
to surrender the convicts. and would
Ford's attorneys claim that the message
was in reply to one from the Governor ask
ing him to request the warden to surrender
and if he has done anything of a criminal
nature it has been at the instance of his
superior. Ford says that when the warden
agreed to surrender the convicts, Lieut..

CONVENTION OF TELEGEAPHERs
Railroad Order May Admit Commercial
Observation-Disclosures Probable.

Railroad Order May Admit Commercial
Observation-Disclosures Probable.
The national convention of the Order of
Railroad Telegraphers will begin at Chat
tonoogo on Monday, May Is, and will he
attended by delegates from all parts OF the
United States and Canada. c. E. Benz O.
min left here Saturday as delegate for the
division having headquarters at Tacoma.
The Order of Railway Telegraphers ex-
tends all over the United States, Canada
and Mexico, has 20i divisions, and includes
in its membership about 5000 men out OF
about 80 coo in the three countries named.
Ii is particularly strong in the West, North
west and South, and is gaining ground
in the East. 1t has grown very rapidly III
the last year and half. The division at
Tacoma has i25 members. employed on all
the railroads IN Western Washington.
Care is taken to exclude the vicious eie-
ment of the craft.
The principal question to be considered
at the meeting of the grand division is
that of universal organization, SO as to
admit commercial as we'll as railroad
operators. About SIX months ago the
brotherhood Of photographers was ANAL
gan!ated with the order and most of the
commercial operators who are members
came in IN that way. Under the present con-
stltution no other commercial operators
are eligible unless they have served three
years on railroad. 1t is now proposed to
open the order to all te!egraphers, whether
railroad or commercial, and to cut the
three-year clause out of the constitution.
1t is probable, also, that a proposal will
be made to join the other organizations of
railroad employees in forming a federation.
All the other organizations are believed to
favor such action with the exception OF
the Brotherhood OF Locomotive Engineers.
which has steadily opposed it. The Order
of Railway Conductors was until late years
opposed to such organization, and was, in
fact, more of beneficial society than a
labor union, but the constitution was re-
vised a few years ago so as to allow it to
take up labor disputes, and to strike if
necessary. Should the locomotive en-
gineers persist in their opposition, the fed
GRAFTON may be formed without them.

AMONG THE WORKMEN
Knotty Problem Discussed by
the Shipwrights.
EVERETT BARGE BUILDERS QUIT.
They Claim They Are Brought There
When Not Wanted and Refused Union
Wages-Lathers on Strike.

The ShipwriglIts' Union held meeting
Saturday night and long discussion took
place on the question of allowing members
OF the Seattle union to so TO Victoria TO
work for Whitelaw, the man who had the
contract for building the pontoons to foat
the wreck of the San Pedro.
1t appears that at the time that White
Law began work on the pontoons he could
not get enough union men and the union
allowed him TO hire non-union men. Later
on number OF caulkers belonging TO the
Victoria union struck for some reason,
but the Seattle union men employed on
the JOB refused to 20 out with them, as the
latter had no grievances and it was not
union Job. Now Whitelaw wants men for
another job and does not want TO hire
members of the Victoria union If he can
avoid it. He therefore applied TO the Sc
attic union for men, but the union decided
not to allow any men TO work tor hum
until he makes peace with the Victoria
union. The subject caused long discus
sion, as nearly all the members OF the
trade are idle here now and are very
anxious to secure work if they can only do
so without violating their union principles.

Masquerade At Armory Hall.

As the time approaches for the celebra-
ton of the first masque carnival and ball
in Armory hall, under the management OF
the Star Dramatic Association of Seattle,
the interest OF intending participants in
creases. From present indications, the
event will prove one of the most success
full of its kind, and the variety of charac-
ters assumed will surpass all previous dis
plays in the city. The attraction COM
mends itself because of the entertainment
offered, and from the important fact that
it will be conducted on vigorously exclus-
i've lines. The prices are popular, the
cost of procuring costumes is very reason
able, and the conyenienccs provided are IN
excellent keeping with ali requirements
Costumes are on display in the Seattle
block, corner OF Third and Cherry streets.

THE BOILERMAKE RS KICK.
Say Everett Barge Company Advertises
for Men 1t Does Not Want.

Theodore Rinehart, c. r. Lawson and J.
Hurley, boilermakers by trade, called at
the PosT-lNTELLIGENCER office Saturday
to make complaint Of the treatment of
men doing the same class of work tor the
Everett Steel Barge Company. They
claim that its officers are sending to differ
ent cities through the country for all the
workmen they can muster, when they
have not work for them. and are not will
ing to pay reasonable wages to those who
work.
The men said shat the superintendent of
the works wrote TO an agent in Victoria
telling him 10 send over as many boiler
makers as he could find. and they with,
several others went to Everett. The few
men for whom there was work were told
that everything would be satisfactory in
the matter Of wages. They were asked to
work ten hours day instead Of nine, the
union working day, and were paid $50
day instead Of the regular rate of S. All
OF them quit when they learned OF this and
there are now none ut work.
