Turbulent Times Of the Past
Week at Coal Greek Changed
to Absolute Quiet.
Hundreds of SightseerS Visit
the Scene of the Recent
Bloody Fights.
A Notorious Miner, Threatened
with Lynching, Saves His
Neck by SQuealing.

KNOXVILLE, Aug. 22.-Absolute peace
reigns throughout the Coal Creek valley
and but for the movement of soldiers
the village that for nearly week has
been one of the most prominent places
In the country was as quiet as any farm
town. There was great many strangers
in the place visiting the scenes Of the
riot The trains from here carried large
numbers of Knoxville people who were
anxious to view the ground where two
of their fellow citizens fell in battle.
On arriving at Coal Creek and properly
identifying themselves they were given
passes and allowed to go inside of the
lines. Fort Anderson, the scene Of Fri
day mornings fight, was visited by hun
dreds. Soldiers in uniform escorted
them from place to place. General An
derson, who was for two days in the
hands Of the miners as prisoner, was
the hero of the day and received con-
gratulations in his tent at Fort Ander-
son. Four hundred miners and citizens
of Coal Creek have been arrested and
200 OF them held for further examina-
ton. They have been removed from
box cars and are guarded in church.
Some of them are still very defiant,
abusing the officers in charge
and threatening dire vengeance on
their captOrS.

MANY DEAD MINERS.

Fifteen Bodies Found in the Vicinity of
Coal Creek.
Coal CREEK, Tenn, Aug. 22.-The
troops have returned from Briceville.
They met with very little resistance. A
negro desperate and miner sympathizer
who had sworn to kill the first soldier
whom he met, offered resistance and
was shot dead, a dozen or more bullets
piercing him through. AS the train
came to standstill there was shot
fired from the window of store. No
one was seen inside, but Colonel Sewer
Immediately returned the fire with his
revolver, the bullet passing through a
pane Of the winuow. About 125 miners
were taken prisoners and brought back
to this place, and they are now under
"a srrone guard. Troops who
went to Briceville were in COM
msnd of General Carnes, instead
of Sewer. A miner has just been cap
.tured i'll the vicinity wearing heuten-
ants full Uniform and sword. Where
he obtained them is a mystery. A full
uniform was also fo;.Ed in the noun
tains late in the afternoon.

State Commissioner of Labor Ford Ar
rested at Knoxville.

State Conn issioner of Labor Ford Ar
rested at Knoxville.
KNOXVILLE, Aug. 22.-The arrest of
Commissioner of Labor Ford by Gen
eral Carnes has produced genuine SEN
sation. He is also inspector of mines
one of the most important offices in the
state. He is a shoemaker by trade and
knows positively nothing about mine
engineering, and got his appointment
from the governor as a recognition of
organized labor. Ford came here four
YEARS ago from New York and was for
two years foreman in Knoxville fac
tory. He has good tongue and soon
became leader among the workmen,
and as an agitator was a success. The
governor appointed him over the pro-
test of all the coal companies who were
required by law to keep their mines in
saia conditions under heavy penalties.
w lien the trouble with the miners came
came up last summer he took a promi-
nent position on the side of the dissatis-
fed miners. He is under arrest as spy.
On his person was found number of
kilograms and letters proving that he
had played the part of spy on the pres
ent militia movement. He would under
raise pretense get valuable information
regarding the mention of the govern
or and military movements and then
telegraph the miners.

Four Kansas Farmers Turn
Bandits and Held Up q Pas
senger Train.
About So, 5000 Secured from the
Safe in the Wells-Fargo Elk
press Car.
A Fifth Member Gives the Snap
Away and the Outlaws
Are jailed.

WICHITA, Kan, Aug. %. The st.
Louis and San Francisco east bound
passenger train which left here at 10
o'clock p. m. was robbed by four masked
men two miles west of Augusta, in But
Ter county, about midnight. The rob
Der were four farmers-Fred Livings-
ton, Charles Carter, A. A. Bailey and
Rolin Mofatt. The amount they Sc
cured is placed by the officials at 5000.
They robbed the wrong train, for it is
the west bound that carries the large
sums. All four are now in jail at Doug
lass, having been captured soon after
the commission of the crime. The sta
ton agent at Augusta says just as the
train pulled out of there he noticed two
men dressed as farmers jump aboard the
front platform of the fourth car. These
were undoubtedly two of the robbers.
AS the train slowed up at the Santa Fe
crossing, about mile east of Augusta,
two masked men mounted the locomo-
tive from either side and covering the
engineer and fireman with guns ordered
them to stop. When the train came to
a standstill the two other members of
the gang, who were on the train,
started to uncouple the express
car and az soon as this was done the en-
gineer was forced to pull out with the
car for point about a mile distant from
the rest of the train. While two of the
robbers watched the crew and the loco
motive the others went to the express
car door and demanded admittance and
by way of pressing their demands COM
menced shooting through the windows
OF the car, in which was Express Mes
senger Ship and a baggageman. The
imprisoned men soon gave in. Ship
was forced to open his safe and the rob-
bers ransacked everything. After de-
laying the train three quarters Of an
hour the robbers told the engineer to
back up and couple on to his train and
pull out. Sheriff Nipp, of Cowley
county, had been informed that scheme
was on foot to hold up train by fifth
man of the gang early in the week, and
while he could not discover exactly
when the robbery was to take place he
had posse in waiting and as soon as he
got wind of the holdup he bounced on
the outlaws. The robbers are new at
holding up trains, but they did their
work like professionals.

Coal CITY, Ala, Aug. ga bold at
tempt to rob the cashier of the Coal City
Mining company was made here Satur-
day and one of the robbers was killed
For month past the company has been
expecting such an effort and the cashier
was prepared for it. Sam Cling, Bill
Jones and Fred Stone were the men
who made the attempt. 1t was the pay
day of the company. Mr.. Mountcastle,
the cashier, had been told that the at
tempt would be made to rob him and he
had bogus package instead of the
money from the express office. This
package was labeled $40, 900. Soon after
the train left, and when the cashier was
supposed to be fixing his pay roll, the
three men rushed in on him, put pistol
to his head and ordered him to open the
safe. At this officers who were secreted
in the store room closed in on the rob-
bers, but the latter opened fire. Cling
was killed but the others escaped.

the morning. Trains of freight cars ex-
tending from Argentine to Turner, a
distance Of four miles occupied the
main line, and there was no track room
to get out of the way. The large num-
Der of cars is due to the heavy crop of
grain of Kansas which is now moving.
Other roads are equally involved in the

MUST PAY TOLLS.
A Retaliatory Proclamation Against Can

ada Issued.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 22.-The mesi-
dent has issued proclamation directing
that from and after Sept. 1, 1892, until
further notice toll of 20 cents per ton
be levied, collected and paid on all
freight, of whatever kind or descrip-
ton, passing through the ST. Mary's
Falls canal in transit to any port of the
Dominion of Canada, whether carried
in vessels of the United States OF of
other nations; and, to that extent, sus-
pending from and after said date the
right of free passage through st. Mary's
Falls canal of any and all cargoes or
portions of cargoes, to transmit to Ca
madam ports.
Caused Surprise Over the Line.
OTTAWA, Aug. 22.-President Harri-
sons proclamation against Canada is the
sole topic of conversation here. The
move was entirely unexpected and will
likely necessitate the early meeting of
the cabinet. Will Canada back down?
This is the question every one is asking
at the hotels, on the street and at the
clubs. Although no official opinion can
be learned, owing to the absence of the
various ministers from the city, there is
a general impression that the Dominion
government having taken fling by de-
clining to abolish the rebate of canal
tolls until the end of the season will not
humiliate itself by complete back
down.
