MILITIA ON GUARD.

OF BAYoNETs--ALL
QUIET NOW,

\, BUFFALO, Aug. 1.-THE day passed
without serious conflict between the
strikers and their sympathixers, and
the militia is now guarding the big Lee
high Valley yards. The leaders ofthe
strike rushed out orders early this
morning for the men to keep quiet and
not excite action,
SO sudden had been the call for the
militia and so quickly had they ar
rived in the darkness Of the night, that
but few knew of their presence in the
city save the pickets of the strikers,
who quickly sent word to the city and
outlying points where the main body
of the men had sent detachments to do
guard duty. The only sounds made
by the regiments as they entered and
occupied the yards in the morning at 3
o'clock were the bugle calls, and these
were so faint and so gently blown they
couldn't have been heard much far
Their than a couple of blocks.
The strikers and their sympathizers
are sullen in their attitude. The neigh
boring restaurants and the storekeepers
refuse to sell anything to the soldiers.
The latter cannot even buy sand
wich. At hotel near the camp the
guardsmen applied for water, but were
refused, The soldiers could have taken
it by force of arms, but General Doyle
would not allow it. He told the men
to take little more trouble and get
water elsewhere, as he desired peace,
and was unwilling TO unduly excite the
people in the neighborhood
The majority Of the strikers held a
secret meeting at midnight last night
and the result Of their elaboration il
anxiously awaited by vice president
Webb and party and an army of news.

Everything is quiet in and abou,
the yards and the military are in com

The contest with the Pinkertons and

erroneous and false statements have
been published as to the cause for
which the men are so pobly contend

and their prospects Of victory, that we
