warlike until o'clock this afternoon.

lines between this city and Midland the
miners were quickly informed by their
scouts of the advance of the sherff's
force and prepared for battle. They
were willing to surrender to
the militia but declared they
would never submit to arrest until after
the troops arrived. Mavor Lindsay and
President Parker of the First National
bank called up Sheriff Bowers by tele.
phone and begged him to atop the depu-
ties until the troops could reach the
camp. The sheriff adhered to this, and
there is every reason to believe that
there will be no further hostilities. Al

miners, announced that they would lay
down their arms Immediately ON the ar.
rival Of the state troops. The deputies
will follow the troops to the minsrs'
camp and serve warrants which they
