OAKLAND, Cal, July 15.-The per-
sistency with which the strikers main
tanned an aggressive campaign yester-
day was responsible for the increased
precautions on the part of the railroad
to-day. At an early hour this morning
the steamer Piedmont landed addi-
tional troops at Oakland mole. A de-
tachment of the First troop of cavalry
of the National guard, numbering fifty
men, and two companies of the naval
battalion were under marching orders
to assist Col. Geary of the Second ar
tillery regiment in guarding the lines
and yard of the Southern Pacific.
1t was very generally understood
that the railroad would make every
effort to open up it's overland service,
both by way of Ogden and Los An
geles, and that Pullman coaches were
to be carried as a part of the trains.
Extraordinary precautions were there

attempt of the strikers to interfere

street, many from motives of curiosity
and strikers with the intention of cap
turing the train crew. When the train
pulled into the station a body of strik-
ers surrounded the engine and endeav-
ored by force of argument to cause the
fireman to leave his cab and join them.
Excitement ran high, and for moment
it appeared that the scenes of yester-
day would be repeated. The soldiers,
charged the crowd, driving it back
and keeping it out of the limits until
the train again started for Port Costa.
