THE FEDERAL FORCES.
Gen. Grant Explains the Position
OF Uncle sam Regarding
Disturbances.
Position of Available TrooDs for
Service in Tennessee and
New York

w ASHINGTON. Aug. 17.-Gen. Grant.
who is acting as secretary of war, said
this afternoon that the war department
had DO information whatever regarding
the labor troubles III New York and
tennessee. beyond what is furnished
by the press dispatches. and he had no
reason 10 apprehend call for federal
interference in either case New York,
in particular. had a splendid military
organization. fully competent i'll his
opinion 10 deal with the present situa-
ton, and he would be very much sur
prised if the aid of the government
were invoked. In such an event, how
ever, there would be Immediately OBJ
tainable two companies of infantry at
| Buffalo. three companies of infantry at
Niagara and the entire Ninth regiment
at Sackett'S Harbor. al the foot OF Lake
Ontario.
Gen. Grant said that while the au-
thorities OF Tennessee were not so we'll
prepared as those of New York to QuelI
local disturbances. ne felt confident
that Gov Buchanan, with the forces at
his command, would be able to put a
stop TO the rloting at Oliver Springs
without the aid OF government troops.
L he nearest available troops for service
IN tennessee. in case they are needed,
are seven companies of artillery at At
lanta. SIX companies of infantry at Gin
clnnatl. and one company of infantry at
Ne wpOrt barracks.
Gen.Grant said he did not think there
would be any serious interruption OF the
mail service, and he was confident that
the postal authorities were fully COM
petent TO deal with the trouble at Oliver
Springs, so far as the mails are con-
ceIned, without any assistance from the
war department. He said he could not

speeding their right OF way. Troops
would, OF course. De used for that pur-
pose in case of necessity.
Gen. Grant explained that federal
troops were never ordered out by the
president for the suppression OF domes-
tic violence until he was satisfied that
the state authorities had exhausted all
the resources at their command and
were DoWerieSS unaided to deal with the
situation. This would explain. he said.
why troops were not sent TO the aid of
Gov. Buchanan last spring. when there
were similar labor troubles. The presi-
dent answered the governors appeal
for aid by a statement that it did not
appear that he had exerted his entire
resources in the matter, and that the
government was not inclined TO inter
fere until that wds done. That the pres
ldent was right in his view was fully
demonstrated hy the subsequent sup
preston OF the disorder by the state au-
thOrities.

Show Good Shooting Under

FORT kEoGH. Mont. Aug. 1.-THE
second day of the cavalry competitions
for the departments OF Dakota and the
Columbia was taken up today with
skirinish firing. forty shots being fired
by each competitor in the forenoon and
again forty in the afternoon. \ most
severe wind storm was blowing across
the range all day, ranging from twenty
to thirty miles per hour. and causing
clouds of dust. which at times made it
almost impossible for the men to see
the targets. That they made on the
average good scores was, under the
circumstances, a surprise to every
body, and proves beyond
doubt that the officers and men
now competing for Uncle Sans
medals know how TO shoot under any
and all circumstances. The total score
of the ten highest competitors for to-
days shooting was only thirty-three
points less than on the first days Skin
mish firing last year. The best single
run was 100. by Private Hill. Fourth
