Special to the RECoRD-UNIoN.
TOPEKA (Kas.), July 25.-The strike
situation in the Cherokee District is re-
garded so serious by Governor Lewelling
and his advisors that eleven companies of
militia have been ordered to hold them
selves in readiness to. move on three
hours notice.
LIeutenant-GOvernor Daniels, who has
been at the scene of the trouble said this
evening that he regarded the situation
critical, and that it might break out into
violence and bloodshed at any time. He
submitted report in writing to the
Governor this afternoon. He rehearses
the difference between the men and own
ers, and says the dispute now hinges on
difference without distinction. The min
ers say they are willing to go to work
at price regulated by the pay they were
getting before the change in the screen
law. The operators say they are willing
to pay the same price they We're paying
before the change in price. Daniels
recommends that the Governor take steps
to bring about arbitration. The report
discourses upon labor troubles in general,
and says they are due to vicious legisIa-
ton inspired by capital and against labor.
FOUR HUNDRED ARMED NEGROES.
WEIR CITY (Kas.), July 25.-Nearly
four hundred negroes from Alabama and
Colorado were unloaded inside the stock
AIDE at shaft S to-day. The men from Col
orado claim that they were told they were
not to work in striking pits, and talk Of
leaving. All of the negroes were armed.
Their arrival was great surprise to the
strikers, but they have little to say.

killed. sandy roadbed, rotten ties, a
heavily loaded train and fast running
over sharp curve are the causes of the
wreck. There were nearly four hundred
passengers on the train, and the three
rear coaches left the track, being precipi-
tated down ten-foot embankment. Two
Of the coaches turned over and over, and
that the inmates escaped with their lives
is considered wonderful. Many were
pinned under the wreck for some time,
and all suffered painful cuts and bruises.

PORTLAND orr, July 25.-Vice-Presi-
dent Stevenson and party arrived here at
1880 o'clock this morning.
At Salem the Vice-President was well
coined to Oregon by Governor Pennoyer.
Notwithstanding that the hour was early,
there was great crowd of people at the
depot.
In welcoming the Vice-President the
Governor said:
''No fairer land upon earth is visited by
the sunlight of heaven than our own
Oregon, and yet with all our resources
many of our industries are at a standstill
and hundreds of our laboring men are
without employment and their families
are without bread. This condition of af-
fairs is legitimate result of departure
from the financial policy of our fathers,
which was made two years ago and which
still exists. Believing this, we appeal to
you to use your utmost influence to pro-
cure return to the policy of the Govern
ment which was so successfully followed
for eighty years.
The simple repeal of the Sherman law,
thus leaving our financial system on a
gold basis, by the great political party
which elected you to the next highest
office in the gift of the people, and which
has gained control of the legislative and
executive branches of the Government,
and which pledged itself to the people in
It's last national platform to secure, with
out discriminating against either metal,
the coinage and use of both gold and sill
yer as the standard money of the country,
would be most fragrant breach of good
faith which all honorable men would
scorn and which would Justly subject the
party perpetrating it TO the unmeasured
contempt of the nation and the world.
The people of Oregon therefore beg you
TO aid in carrying out the written pledge
of your party by the restoration of the
former financial policy of the Govern
ment, which would result in the return
of pros perity, the revival of industries
and the employment of the vast army of
the unemployed"
The Nice-President, after expressing
gratefulness for the welcome, said: I'm
response to the words of the distinguished
Executive of this State, l can only saw
that to the best of my abilities I will en-
CARELESS of party, have in view the best
interests of the common people of the
land"
The Vice-Presidential party was met at
Salem by Mayor Mason of Portland and
city officials who had gone up TO escort
the party to Portland.
AS the train bearing the distinguished
party rolled into the Central depot it was
greeted by a salute of nineteen guns.
Owing to the earliness of the hour only
small crowd of people had gathered at
the station. Carriages were in waiting for
the party, which was driven to a hotel.
and after breakfast the morning hours
were spent in driving about the city.
At noon the Vice-President reviewed
the procession, composed of the police
and fire departments, Grand Army posts,
First Regiment of the National Guard
and Troop E of the Fourth United States
Cavalry.
Mayor Mason then delivered an adj
dress of welcome, to which the Vice
President fittingly responded.

BAKER CITY Orr. July 25.-D. H.
Crouter and family, who occupy the
residence ofJudge d. B. Schofield, to-day
found tin can in the cellar containing
$1,000 in $40 gold pieces. About one year
ago Judge Schofeld left here and claimed
that he was 81, 900 short in his cash. This
discovery accounts for $1,000, but where
the remainder went is mystery. The
Judge is quite feeble and his memory is
poor. He now lives at Grants Pass, Or.
He has been appraised of the find.

returned from San Francisco since she

visors for offering reward for me be-
cause l killed Pascoe."
He then put cloth in the girls mouth
so she could not speak, threw barley
sack over her head and tied it around her
waist. He took the child in his arms,
went back to the house, and up the hill
some five hundred yards and threw the
child into pile of brush, which gave way
under her weight, and seated himself
upon a rock to take rest.
BY this time the rest of the folks had
got home and made a search for Cornelia,
lint nowhere could she be found. The
air was rent with screams and walls
which frightened the fellow. He grabbed
for the child. catching hold of the sack
which he had placed over her head and
il came off, when the girl ran, her black
dress making her almost invisible.
She had gained considerable Roadway
before the scoundrel got over his sur
prise, He gave chase for about thirty
yards. but suddenly turned around and
darted off in another direction.
The description of the rascal does not in
any way resemble Pascoe's murderer
and the officers believe him lunatic.

Two Trains Collide.

The northbound express from Wash
ington for New York on the Penn
sylvania railroad crashed into the Nor
ton accommodation near Philadelphia.
President Harrison was on special
train following the express. His train
was delayed about half an hour and
then proceeded TO New York. The
tracks of the central division and the
main line cross at the place where the
accident occurred. The accommoda-
ton had the right of way, but owing
to the slippery condition of the tracks
the engineer of the express was unable
to control his train, and the locomotive
crashed into the third car of the COM
mediation, cutting it in two in the mid
die. No one on the express was in
jured, and the engine was damaged so
slightly that it proceeded TO New York
with the train half an hour afterward.
The express was made up entirely of
heavy Pullmans and the light passen-
ger car of the accommodation was
hurled fifty feet from the track, broken
and smashed by the terrible force of
the blow.
Four passengers on the accommoda-
ton were instantly killed and 10 Sc
verely injured. A number of promi-
nent persons were passengers on the
express train, among them Congress-
men Dingley and BellSnap, ex-Post-
master-General Frank Hatton, Senator
Washburn. All rendered what aid
they could to the injured passengers,
but no one was more energetic than
Congressman Charles Il. Bellknap, of
Michigan.
