By telegraph to The DlsDatch.l


W,sHINGroy. July I4.--Ieiegrams re-
ce,ved by Maior-General Schofeld this af-
ternoon show that the labor troubles III
tbe Coeur d'Alene Mining District, Idaho,
are ot an end for the present. The rioters
have dispersed. and the state authorities.
aided by Federal troops, are IN tnll posses
sion Of the field.
One of the teiegrams was rom Bi.gadieT-
General Merritt, at st. Paul, Mimi: ana
told how certain cOlOred troops hhd cir
cumyented designs of the minors TO attack
them in n ravlne near Wardner. The tele-
gram is a. follows: Captain Sanborne,
Iwenty-ffth Infantry, reported at ~
o'clock last evening. while a. route, that In
order to concentrate the troops Colonel
Carlin had ordered hls command back 70
Mlssoula and thence to Occur d Alene CITY,
and by steamer and rail thence 10 the scene
of tho disturbances near M0rdper june
ton, Idaho. and information was received
from Mlssoula that the command bad
left that place again at $3.50 last night H
ro1ife a. directed. Captain Sanborne adds
that had his command continued west OF
Niullan the strikers intended blowing up
the mills. A battalion of the Twenty
second Infantry, twelve officers and two
hundred and five enlisted men, under the
command of Lieutenant-Colonei Page,
lett for Keogh nj 1l:45 last night Tor the
scene Of the disturbances.
RESTORATION or ORDER.
The other telegram is from Colonel Car
lin. commanding the troops AZ the scene
of the disturbance. II Is dated Wardner,
and tells of the restoration Of order IN the
following words
" WARDNEg, IDAHO, July H.-Arrived here
at $3.50 this morning with the Fourth IN
fantry battalion from Fort sherman. and
one hundred and eighty-seven Idaho State
troops. Found that the rioters had dis
persed to their respective mining camps,
taking their arms with them, after sending
al nOu-uniOn miners captured out OF the
country. All is now quiet here. bat
talon Of the Fourteenth infantry from
Vancouver barra ks has just arriveds
General Scnoheld SAID tonight that The
people who were complaining because
the soldiers bad not arrested the rioters
had very improper conception OF the po-
sition Of the troops in the matter. lie eX-
blamed that they were ordered there
merely 10 support the civil authorities m
the restoration of order and were acting al.
together under the orders of the Governor
of the State. They bad no independent
functions whatever, and had absolutely
nothing whatever TO do with any disor-
der that may have occurred before then
arrival. 1t was the duty of the civil au-
thorIties 10 enforce the law, and all that
the troops could do was to protect them
IN so doing.

THE DISPATCHES CONTRADICTORY.
All Non-Union Miners Have Been Driven
Out-No More violence Likely

WASHINGTON. July 1.-THE dispatches
from Idaho are as contradictory as their
sources are various. IL does not appear
certain how many men were killed by
union miners while escorting non-union
men from the Bunker Hill and Sullivan
mines. One report says twelve; another
saws two. Ii is clearly established, how
ever. THAI all non-union miners have been
driven out of that section. The country
is full of rumors and threats. but reports
to General Schofeld Indicate that there Is
no ikelihood of any further violence.
Another body was found to-day IN the
ruins of the Frisco mill. blown up by the
strikers. making eight killed there.
A dispatch from Wallace says the mines
are generally starting up to-day, and that
the members of the miners union are
talking OF invitinga congressional lnyesti-
gatlOu.

HE CoLoReD POPULATION.
Rate Of Increase of Persons Of African De-
scent Only 1881 Per Cent.


WASHINGTON, July 1.-THE Census Office
to-day Issued bulletin on the subject OF
the colored population of the United
States in 1890. I he bulletin shows that
the colOred population as returned under
the census Of 1890 Is 7,63S,3GO. Of THIS
number 7,f70,0 ,0l0 are persons OF African de-
scent, IO7, ,475 are Chinese, 2.039 Japanese,
and 5s, SOC civilized Indians.
Considering persons Of African descent
It is seen that there has been an increase
during the decade from 1880 TO 1880 OF
SS9.247. or 1881 per cent, as against an IN
crease during the decade from 1870 70 lSsO
of LOO, 7S4, or 1876 per cent. Ihe bui-
letin saws: " The abnormal increase OF
the colored population of the South du-
ring the decade ending IN 1880 led 10 the
popular belief that the negro was lncTea-
sing al "A much creator rate than the white
population The present census has
shown, however, that the nigh rate OF IN
crease IN the cOlored population, as shown
by the census of 1880, was apparent only
and was due 10 the imperfect enumeIatlOh
Of 1870 in the southern States
There has been an increase IN the num-
Der OF Chinese III the United States during
the decade from 1880 to 1890 OF only Z,OlO'
1.9l per cent.--the number returned III
1850 being IO5, ,iG5, and the number re-
turned III 1890 being l07,475. The Chinese
increased 66.SS per cent. IRON lotO 10 io'O'
and S0.9l per cent. from 1860 to 1870.
In 1889 the japanese in the United States
mum mbered only 1is while IN 1890 they mum
bcred 2.039. In 1870 there were only %
japanese returned under that censns.
The civilized Indians have decreased
during the past ten years 1901, or ll.io per
cent, the number returned IN 1880 Oelng
