Gen. Csrnes Getting Statements From the
Captured Miners
Coal CREEK, Tenn, Aug. 23.-Gen. Carnes
WAS found at supper last night by Associ-
ated Press representative and made the follow
ing statement: Eve have made better pro-
gress today in our investigation than at any
previous time. These men. meaning the pris-
oners, are just beginning to open their mouths
and some startling Developments will be made
In a short while. They all belong to a secret
oath-bOund order and the penalty of violating
their obligation IL death, consequently they have
been as close as CLANS heretofore We have been
ut work on them. however. and are just now be-
ginning to convince them that they will be
protected against violence for making state
mepts. We have obtsined several confessions
from them today, which at this step Of the
proceedings it would be unvise to give out but
i state this much, that when they are made
known they will create much surprise"
The general also stated that at the rate OF
progress that had been made yesterday he
would be able in five or six days to separate the
chat from the wheat and that the work OF the
military would be completed. George E Irish,
the notorious miner leader. was brought from
Knoxville TO Coal Greek at IL 80 last night. At
II so I'm. O detachment Of soldiers forciblv en-
tered the telegraph Office and examined the
telegraph files to get addresses and names OF
miners. RumOr had il last night that Gov.

THE LEASE SYSTEM.
Attorney General Picket, who arrived yester-
day afternoon TO cooperate with Gen. Carnes
in suppressing the trouble here, accepted the
hospitality Of the press headquarters last night
In conversation with press representative the
general expressed the opinion that the lease
system could be abrogated at the discretion of
the governor and board of prison inspectors.
as the conditions Of the lease had been violated
months ago by the lessees in the failure by them
to paw the yearly fee Of 500 COO, for which suit
has been brought.
The general also expressed the opinion that
martial law could be proclaimed in Tennessee
either by the governor Of the state or By spe-
cial session of the legislature. The only way to
handle the matter was the method being pur-
sued now by the state guard, with the cc-opera-
ton of the civil authorities.
The general said that heroic measures should
be instituted. That il a dozen or two of the
prime movers in the lavlessness were sent to
the penitentiary il would have the good effect
Of intimidating the other agitators. and they
would not dare return to this vicinity for fear
of like penalty. Atty. Gen. Picket seems to
be fully aroused to the situation, and advocates
the maintenance of peace even II the troops
have 70 be kept here until the September term
OF the circuit court, when prosecutions can be
instituted
