A Reward offered for the Capture of Six of
Them.
KNOXVILLE, Tenn.-[Speciall = The
receivers Of the Walden Ridge railroad
to day, acting upon orders from United
States Circuit Judge Jackson, offered a
reward of 5000 each for the apprehen-
sion OF six OF the leaders OF the riotinp
miners who took possession of the
trains on that road. They will be pros.
ecuted on several charges.
The Knoxville militia reached home
at tonight. AS soon as their guns
were taken from them by the minors
they were ordered away from divers.
They left Oltvers about q. m. and
reached the X. tS o. road in the after
noon, having tramped 81 miles. The
liberated convicts, % in number, were
shipped to Nashville. They had been
without food for SO hours when thew
reached Knoxville. Many OF them still
had their mining lamps in their hats.
There is strong suspicion in tho minds
OF many men. and the opinion is grow.
ing, that there is political deal behind
the whole miserable matter.

into the stockade and told the warden
In charge thatit was folly to resist tho
, miners, who numbered 1880, and were
prepared to attack and capture the
stockade. This brought abouta confer
ence between the miner leaders and the
warden, resulting in twenty.eight SOL
dlers and eighteen guards surrendering
to the miners without firing shot.
The miners at once took possession,
run the convicts out to the railroad,
loaded them on the train with their
guards and started them to Knoxville.
The guards are very sore over it as they
say they were tricked into surrender
to a few men whom they could have held
at bay until other achievements came
to their help.
AT the last advices the sixtyflve men
who went from this city were still at
Hartman awaiting orders. Without
other support it would be folly for them
to attempt to move across the hostile
territory. They can only be taken to
Coal Creek, to the probable scene OF the
next outbreak, by rail, and as the road
Is practically in control Of the mob of
miners and the wires along it are cut,
1T is not likely they will move very rap
idly, If at all, by this route.
The miners have gone in the direct ton
OF Coal Creek, where they will be joined
by several hundred more and an attack
on the military there may occur at any
moment. and if 1t does there will be a
bloody reception for them. The State
is thoroughly aroused and mon Of all
classes are ready to join the law and
order party to aid the military in restor-
Ing quiet even at the cost of few lives
Sheriff Holloway, of Knox county,
has called for five hundred citizens Of
Knoxville to go to the relief of the
soldiers at Coal Creek. This is under
the authority OF an order to that effect
from Governor Buchanan. Petitions
have been wired to the Governor asking
him to call on the G eneral Government
for aid. An additional detachment of
troops, from thirty. five to fifty, will
leave here tonight to reinforce the com.
panies OF the Third regiment now in
the field.
All accounts agree that the mob Of
miners is marching to Coal Creek and
will attack the stockade there. Major
Chandler made his escape from Oliver
Springs and reported to Colonel Wool.

Il suppose you had some intervi VS. with
President Giant about itl''
Yes, but he was loathe to DO anything.
though we urged 1t upon him. remember
one day L was talking with him about il
and he made this remark: 1T is easy to
stand by yeur friends when they are right.
but 1t takes nerve to stick to them when
you fear they are wrongs
Did you know Conklin when you were
in Congressl''
Yes, he was in the Senate while I was
IN the House but did not have much to do
with him. He was q great man in some
respects, buts ne was a very foolish one in
others and he had an overbearing, sneerinp
way about him that was very offensive. /
remember one time during my second term
in the House l had a talk with him about
some matters and during this said to him:
I Senator Conk ing, there is only one thing
that you do not seem to have fully settled
in your mind, and that is you do not know
whether you made the Lord Almighty or
the Lord Almighty made YOU Z"
And what did Conkling say to thatln I
asked
He didn't say anything" said Governor
Foster with laugh. He merely sneered
and turned upon his heel and after that our
relations were not very friendly"
How about President Harrison, will he

81 think there is no doubt of it." was his
| reply. OAd1AC Is GQLlTely OUT Oh the Held
and he will not, L think, ever be a presiden-
tial candidate again. Harrison will be
nominated by reclamation. He has grown
q great deal since he became President and
he is stronger now with the people than he
was in 1855"
How about McKinley?"
Mckinley is too near the Mckinley bill
to be presidential candidate this year"
replied Governor Foster. "He may be a
very good candidate for 1896. when the
working OF the bill has been made manifest
/ to all, but it would not be wise to nominate
/ him now"
How about the Democratic candidates?u
II think Cleveland will be the nominee
and don't see anyone else who has any
real chance before the convention"
How about Governor Hill?"
! II think Mr.. Hill has, as the bows say,
'oyer-crapped HIMSELF He has bitten of
more than he can chew and, keeping up the
same style OF expression, he is not in itIn
How about the issues3''
''Both the tariff and the silver question
will enter into the campaign. We will ac-
cept the position of the President on silver
and the Democrats will make some kind of
plank that will read both ways and 1e for
or against silver according as the locality is
in favor or against IL. The tariff question
will be the same as it has been in the past
