news can be had as the rioters have cut the
wires. This afternoon hundred mine rs
armed with Winchestera took possession Of
train on the Knoxville & Ohio road at
Coal Creek. enroute for Clinton. where
they hoped to be able to intercept the re-
Inducements, but they were too late. The
issue is a grave one. for the miners are
dynamiting In a dozen places on the Knox
Vile d. Ohio and the Walden Ridge rail-
road to wreck any train carrying militia.

Eighty-two miners, all heavily armed,
boarded passenger train at Coal Creek,

ductor and firemen and made them carry
them to Oliver Springs. They refused to
paw fare and simply had their own way by
outlawry. 1t is now known that the battle

offered the Erie and Lehigh Valley have
been enabled to move freight trains to- day
fox the first time since the blockade Sunday
morning. From $50 to 200 i'm ported non

try lines were formed all along the bound
aries Of the territory covered by the militia
and the strictest discipline observed.

arbitration and switchmen lasted until
midnight. At that hour mysterious
meeting of brakeman and switchmen was
hold, and rulnors were rife that the strike
would extend. At one o'clock the Central
switchmen abandoned all work in the
freight yards. This adds reinforcements to
the Lehigh and Erie strikers. A police
escort was sen& out to bring in the Lake
