Fears That Much Bloodshed Will Re-
suit Before Peace~is Restored.
PADUcAH. KY, July 14.-Last night
extra police to the number of 100 men were
put on duty to patrol the city and every
precautionary measure possible was taken
to preserve the peace. At s o'clock a squad
of men in the northeastern part OF the city
saw 100 negroes beyond Oak Grove cemetery
and several shots we're exchanged. As soon
as this word was communicated to the city
authorities 100 stands OF arms we're placed
in the hands of determined citizens, who
marched out to where the negroes were
located. The military company was again
ordered under arms. The city was In ex-
oitement and it was almost impossible for
the usual routine Of business to be trans
acted.
MUCH BLooDsHED FEARED.
A deplorable state of affairs exists, and ID
Is feared that much bloodshed will occur
before the end is reached. When the citi-
zsns reached the place where the armed ne
groes were reported the latter had retreated
into the woods near by. After remaining
in that locality couple of hours the citi-
zens were divided into squads and set 20
work patrollipg the city. Rumors are atloat
to the effect that armed pegross are on the
outskirts of the city on all sides and that
they are thick in the surrounding woods.
To-day large body OF men win scour the
woods and arrest the negroes. The work Of
arresting the leaders in Monday nights mob
steadily proceeds and quite number have
been arrested. Up to 5 o'clock this morn
ing everything was quiet. except that the
streets were patrolled by policemen carry
ing Wlnchesters on their shoulders.
QUIET PREVAILS.
LOUISVILLE. KY, July 14.-Quiet pre-
walls at Paducah to-day. An Investigation
was held this morning to determine If posi-
BILE where the arms that the mob had are
kept and who are the leaders of the mob
Ali negroes who cannot show that they have
places of living will be compelled to leave
town. A judicial inquiry is also in progress
to-day to determine who killed Elmer Ed

two mills. The Beaver Falls plant, which
has been closed for repairs, was to have re-
sumed operations on Monday next, but the
men say they Will NOT return to work unless
the firm grants another conference to the
Homestead workers. as
THE MOVE AN INDEPENpEHT ONE.
This move on the part OF those men is an
Independent one, not under orders from the
amnlgamated association, though sanctioned
by it, and 10 the result of concerted action ot
a body Of mill workers fully 10 sympathy
with the Homestead men. They receive no
allowance from the amalgamation treasury
although q vote taken at . recent mass
meeting upon this action was
declared unanimous In favor
of il. Many OF the m0rknen are dissatis-
fed. Some Of the pr JmInent workers think
the men are over reaching themselves. A
roller who makes very large wages said this
afternoon. IT decidedlys object to this
move and think the men are making a
mistake in taking the steps indepepdent
of their organization. They are all
members Of fthpamalgnnatet association aud
should not tnke sucn action without the
sanction of ths leaders OF ofthsiorganization.
Continuing he said: NsWe are under agree
ment to keep at our work aad cannot con-
sistently break that contract until ordered
to do so, "The officials at the mill feel power
less 10 lnHuence. .ene men and. deem 1t wise TO
allow them to take their own course and
bear the responsibility OF their action.
Lumber for the construction Of high
fence is In readiness and can be
put into shape In few hours.
That fence Is 10 be constructed
with a view to further trouble Is denied by
Some, while others say the work is being
pushed rapidly. The closing down of
the Pittsburg mills is having q de-
pressing effect on all kinds OF business In
that city. The Keystone bridge works,
Soheffier works and several other construc-
ton mills will undoubtedly be forced to
close, increasing the number OF Idle men to
twice that leaving the union mills.

Ten Demanded $500 Each to Pass an
Ordinance.
TOLEDO, July 14-The special grand
jury convened two days ago reported at
O'Clock this afternoon indictments for
soliciting bribes against seven members of
the city council, as follows: B. o. Man
chester, George Donor, John Daily, Frank
G. Tanner, r. p. Swain, Charles
Nurendorf aud William Gill. or these
four are democrats and three
republicans. Manchester was formerly
chairman of the republican city committee.
The crime of soliciting bribes is put by the
Ohio statutes in the same category as
bribery, and the penalty is not to exceed a
$500 fine or not to exceed five years at hard
labor in the penitentiary, or both. Five OF
the accused have been arrested and have
given bonds for $1,000 each for their
appearance. The other two are known TO
be in the city tonight, but they have not
yet been placed under arrest.
The evidence which procured these in
dictments was obtained from the Pluto Oil
Company, which desired permission to pipe
certain streets to furnish crude oil for fuel
TO manufacturers. A combine, which EN-
braced ten councilmen, demanded $500
each, they agrseing to put the necessary
ordinance through or refund the money.
The Pluto managers determined to trap the
boodlers, and did 30 effeotualIy.
