Chairman Oates, OF the Investigating Conn
nittee, Talks Of the Homestead Affair.
WASHINGTON, July 1S - Chairman
Oates, of the committee appointed to in
vestigate the Homestead troubles. re-
turned impressed with the belief that
there is more bloodshed In store for the
inhabitants of that town: II never saw
q more intelligent and desperate set OF
workingmen than the Homestead strik-
ers, he said. The Carnegies will try
to start their works with non-union men
under the protection of the militia.
They may be able to do that but when
the militia are taken away the strikers
will try to drive away the
non-union men. The latter will
be armed, / have no doubt,
and the fight win be more bloody
and desperate than has yet occurred.
The strikers are well organized. They
admit they have no law on their side,
but they claim they have moral right
to preserve their rights, and being in that
mood and with enough money to supply
their present needs, they win cause
trouble. OF course the law must be
eventually vindicated, but not without
bloodshed.' z
1t is expected that the committee will
find that the situation shows no occasion
for federal interference.

Fired from The Militia.

ST. PAUL, July Is. --Adjutant General
Mullen has issued general orders No. 12.
Besides the usual changes in the various
regiments Of the state caused by resigna-
tions, eleven men have been discharged
from the state militia. This action was
occasioned by the riots at Tower. Two
members Of Company G, Third regi-
ment, were dishonorab1y discharged for
refusing to respond for duty when or
dered to Tower and for abusing
their superior officers. The nine
remaining were also discharged
from the Third regiment for the s.good
sof the service Seven were from Com
pany d, and two from Company B.
Unsoldierly conduct is the cause as
signed in the latter case.

Immense Damage Done in Colorado by
Heavy Rains Many Bridges Gone.
DENVER. July 1S- Colorado was Wis
tied during the day by one of the most
destructive storms in the history Of the
state. "A terrible water spout in Grape
Creek canyon sent wall of water ten
feet high down the canyon, carrying
everything before it. AT the junction
Of the Arkansas river several hundred
feet Of track and roadbed of the Rio
Grande and Western road was washed
away. The city was flooded two feet
higher than ever before known, carrying
away the Santa Fe bridge and several
hundred feet of track. The huge wagon
bridge, few hundred feet below, was
lifted bodily from its foundation and
bore down the river, where the
whole mass was lodged. Many
houses are flooded, the people having
He'd before the torrent reached them.
The electric light and water supply AT
Canon City is shut off and the damage to
growing crops and fruit is incalculable.
The wagon bridge at Florence, fifteen
miles down the river, is gone and sew
eral thousand dollars damage done to
property. A bridge forty feet high near
Monument on the Rio Grande railway
went down and the Rock Island passen-
ger, bound for Denver, viii have to re-
main at Monument until morning, hav-
ing arrived there few moments after
the bridge gave way. Considerable
damage was done at other points along
the river, though no loss of life has been
reported as yet.

The IDAHO TROUBLES.

Another Bloody War Expected Ween Nom
Union Men Return.
SPOKANE FALLS, Wash, July 16.--
Wallace is quiet and to all appearances
will remain SO. The arrival Of troops
has not had the effect of subduing the
mine men, but the fears OF citizens
have been allayed. There aEe nearly q
thousand troops in Ce,ir dAlene.
About one hundred soldiers were sent
out into the mountains around Wardner
and Wallace Thursday night to look ont
for meetings Of union men. About fifty
citizens of Wallace and Wardner who
have taken sides with the non-union
men have been ordered TO leave. w. T.
Harris, who keeps slaughter housenear
Wallace, was ordered TO leave under
penalty Of having his property blown into
atoms. Harris told the unions commit
tee that he wouldn't leave and would
fight for his rights. There are many
correspondents in this country at pres
ent. These gentlemen are especially
obnoxious to the union men and have
been blacklisted with the telegraph
operators. The operators are protected
by two armed guards on duty all the
time. The lives of several report
ers have been repeatedly threat
ened. When the report reached
here Thursday night that thirteen dis
embowled and mutilated bodies had
been found in Fourth Of July canon, the
excitement was intense Groups gath
erred on the street corners and talked
wildly until dispersed by the military.
Two loud explosions were heard west of
Mullan Thursday night, but, rs the
wires were cut, definite information
could not be obtained until Friday
night, when u was learned that the
strikers blew up the bridges near Mullan
to keep ont the soldiers. They have the
mountains picketed with union men. II
Ia stated, on good authority, that as soon
as the excitement cools down non-union
men viii be brought back and put to
work. When this is done q bloody war
is expected. At Harrison, Ida, prepar-
ations are being made by q number Of
the ffriends of non-union miners, sup
posed to have been killed in the Mission
massacre, I'd drag the river in the hope
of recovering the bodies of any who may
have been shot while attempting to
swim the river. The first official order
was promulgated by Colonel Cur
tbs Friday, directing the Northern
and Union Pacific railroads not to sell
tickets or to transport passengers
through the county of Shoshone except
where they had passports from military
headquarters.

NOTHING ALARMING.

Everything Very Quiet About Homestead.
Carnegiss Give Notice.
HOMESTEAD, Pa, July 49, There is
nothing In the situation to alarm the
people Of Homestead. Matters have as
sumed very quiet phase and rumors OF
q startling nature are absent So far as
can be ascertained the few non-union
workmen were not reinforced by others
during the night Trains are closely in
spected by the strikers and the river
front Is watched for the appearance Of
new men, but so far the watchers have
failed TO discover any. There appears
to be nothing hostile in the disposition
of the workers who watch the river and
the trains. There has been little talk
concerning prosecution Of the leaders Of
the strike for the disorders that have en-
sued, but these same leaders have taken
time by the forelock and made every
preparation in the event of arrest. Bail
sufficient III amount to cover any charge
that can be brought against them has
been secured by each of the leaders and
counsel has also been retained. An
occasional rumor that Hugh O'Donnell
and others would be placed under
arrest by Sheriff McLeary creates some
excitement in the town, but the men
most Interested seem unconcerned, and
Judging from outward appearances don't
place much credence In the reports. The
charge that would probably be brought
against them is conspiracy. Some Of
those who are losing heart think the
killing of the Pinkerton men may form
the basis Of an indictment for murder,
but generally the people place little re-
hance in this suggestion.
