Threats of Tennessee Miners.

MEMPHIS, Tenn. Jan. 7.-Brigadier-
general Carnes, commanding the Tennessee
militia now stationed at Briceville. re-
turned to the city to-day for the purpose of
transacting some important private busi-
ness. In speaking of the situation at the
mines, the General said to a reporter: 1.-THE
outlook for q fight Is pretty good. that is,
If the miners threats amount to anything.
They are very much excited. and may be
led to the fighting point. The presence of
the troops, they say, is an insult TO them,
and they openly declare an intention TO re-
sent 1t. Every day while / WAS there par
ties of them would post themselves on the
creek opposite our camp and jeer at Us, and
threaten to come and see us one of these
nights. Last Friday some farmers came
into camp and told me that there were z, 500
gathered at Briceville. q few miles distant,
and swearing they are going to wipe us off
the face of the earth. The camp and stock
ade are situated in q basin surrounded by
mountains, and their plan was to take po-
sition on the high ground and pick us off
like rabbits. They might do some damage
in that way just now. but by the end OF
the week tho block house will be COM
pleted, and in them the troops will be So
cure. The men are all well and in good
spirits."

Special to the Indianapolis Journal
TERRE HAUTE, Jan. Last week the
trouble in the bituminous coal regions had
apparently been settled satisfactorily to the
miners In every district outside of Clinton.
but official information received this week
indicates that the trouble has broken out
anew. and, If anything. in more serious
form than the previous outbreak. 1t ap-
pears that the operators are making de-
termiDed effort to destroy the miners or
ganization. and that they are being aided
by the worthless element among the miners.
National Vice-president p. II. Pcnna, who
is located in Linton district. whore the
trouble was thought to have been
settled, has written to the State
officers in this city that the operators are
doing their utmost to destroy the organlza-
tion, and suggested that one of the officers
60 to Linton. In response to this appeal
for assistance President Cummesky will
Thoroughly investigate the trouble. He will
having reoei ved q dispatch that the opera
tors were reducing their employees. The
operators at Dugger. In the Linton district.
have refused to allow the check-off system
to be continued % il was prior to the
strike. and the miners, being in o helpless
condition. have Presumed work in spite of
the refusal. This is striking tho men at q
vital spot and it is plain attempt to
disrupt their organization. A fact that
is worrying the State officers greatly 10
that the miners at Digger are divided
in their opinions concerning organiza-
ton. Some favor national organization.
others q state organization and still others
incline to the idea that they are better off
without an organization of any kind. The
operators are utilizing this dissension
among the miners. and it is easy to see how
greatly it assists them in their efforts to
destroy the organization. There is canse
for the mems antagOnism against the ma
tional organization of United Miners.
When the strike was declared on at the
convention in this city, National President
Res and Secretary Mcbride telegraphed to
the convention opposing the strike. Then.
again, failure to supply the idle men with
sufficient relief funds has caused great
deal of hard feelings agsInst the national
order There are no signs of q settlement
in the Clinton district. and as soon as
President Cummssky returns to the city.
and the extent of the trouble at Linton is
learned, the national officers will be ap-
pealed to for aid to support the Clinton
men.

sports, and was an attendant at oil the
notable events In which skill or strength or
prowess were the points Of interest. He
took in, among other things, all the SPAR
ring matches, and occasionally a fight of
the experts tickled his fancy. His parents
came from the county Kerry, ireland,
and settled at the Highlands, near Boston
Mass
At the age Of 16 young Sullivan had de-
veloped the pluck and strength that made
him respected among the young men of his
neighborhood, and that has brought him 30
rapidly since to the very front and head of
pugilism.
He had several ofr-hand fights, as boys
will have but carried them off with COM
pleteness that was rather manly than juve-
nile and made himself a reputation as
promising youth in this line. He spared at
several boxing exhibitions In Boston and
showed great skill, and finally had Johnny
Murphy as sparring partner. Every time
he appeared an improvement was noted in
him. and 1t was predicted that he would
some day be the worlds champion"
In December, 1880, Sullivan met Prof.
John Donaldson in Cincinnati. They spared
four rounds, when Donaldson quit. But
Donaldson was not satisfied and challenged
Sullivan to fight again with hard gloves
Sullivan accepted, and the men met on Dec.
2S, 1880, on the site Of the Palace hotel.
lu0 DEbLl6 was a OQ8PSlQeQ 6ualT, SULLIVAN
having all the best of it during the entire
fight. The battle lasted ten rounds, when
Donaldson was knocked out of time. This
may be called Sullivan's first regular battle,
and it gave him great reputation. His
attempts in the prize ring are as follows:
Defeated Prof. John Donaldson, ten rounds;
defeated John Flood. eight rounds; defeated
Paddy Ryan, nine rounds; defeated John
MeDermott, three rounds; defeated Joe
