The United States Industrial Army Of

ceved here by the Southern Pacific rail-

Is still camped at Finlay. The
people Of Fl Paso, fearing that the army
would turn back and visit their city,
are endeavoring TO raise sufficient
money TO pay FOR a train with which 10
bring the army to San Antonio. The
Southern Pacific officials state that they
are perfectly willing to haul the
men if their fares are paid. The
injunction, prohibiting the men from
interfering with the movement OF trains
is still in effect in El PasO county. The
company of rangers under command Of
Captain Hughes, who are guarding the
railroad company's property at Finlay,
were withdrawn to-day upon the fol-
lowing order from Governor Hogg:
