HOMESTEAD, Pa, Aug. 3O.-It is
learned that the Pinkerton agency

mill as non-union workmen. These
men deserted in small squads and were
taken into the strikers ranks. They

gathered considerable evidence against
participants in the riot of July 9,

tons. 1t is also said that they have
discovered the hiding place Of the cap

The Authorities Determined to Stop tho
Reign of tho Mob at Rhluelapder.


RHINELANDER, Wis, Sept. 3.-The
mill owners have decided upon vigorous
measures to regain control of their
property and put an end to the reign
of terror inaugurated by the mob Fiji
teen warrants have been sworn out for
the rioters and delegation of mill
owners will go to the State capital to
night asking for militia.
The leaders of the rioters who have
melted them to the intimidation of men
who were willing to work will be the
first against whom the warrants are
directed. These leaders seem to be
professional agitators, as they have
not been working in the mills and are
strangers here. 1t is said that more
than half of the mill men have been
compelled to join the strike although
they wanted to continue at work. Two
of these leaders have already been ar
rested, and it is hoped that the prompt
action of the authorities will prevent
any further serious trouble.

DEADwOoD. S. d., Sept. 3.-Will-
lam S. Dany came into this city yes
terday, bringing with him several
thousand dollars worth OF gold mug
gets and number OF specimens of ore
fairly bristling with particles OF gold.
Danny Is prOspectOr and claims to
have found the celebrated Lost
Cabin" mine. Of which so much that
Is romantic has been written and
printed in every modern language.
His story is that two weeks ago, while
hunting in the western part of the
Black Hills. he stumbled into what he
at first supposed was a small cave. but
which. upon subsequent investi gation,
proved to be q room 20x30 feet and of
an average height OF seven feet rudely
hewn out of solid rock by human
hands.
This room he first discovered to con-
tain the skeleton OF a human being
which, exciting his curiosity induced
search that was rewarded by finding
GOLD nuggets OF an aggregate value OF
$50. 600. The place was many miles
from settlement and he remained until
week ago. searching for the mine
from which the nuggets came. He
claims to have found it and states that
the ore he has was taken from it. The
fact that Danny had SO much gold with
him lends plausibility to the story.
which is creating a great deal OF ex-
element and will cause numerous
prospecting parties to start out to-
night. 1t is not probable they will
FIND the mine, however as Daney re-
fuses to locate it any more definitely
than by saying it is about fifty miles
from Deadwood in the western part
OF the Black Hills.
