Many Thought to BE Dead.

~IRoNToN, o., June Z, 1S94.-At midnight
last night an attack was made upon the
guards and track-walkers on the trestle run
ming over Lyck Greek, five miles from
I~ronton, by a large number of miners.
The track-walkers and guards were knocked
down with stones and a volley of powder and
balls. The guards were overpowered and
their lanterns smashed to pieces. A
freight train sidetracked its load and car
ried the Sheriff to the scene of the
trouble. The guards saw a number of
strangers hanging around the edge of the
bridge trying to get on, and they opened fire
upon them. The guards are positive some
dead are lying around, but none
lave yet been found. There were
between so and 100 shots fired last
evening at this point. The guards expect
another bloody attack this evening but will
be supplied with Winchesters and a larger
force of men. The Kenova bridge is all
right and the Mccoy and Hatfield tribe is
guarding it.

was made on the aSsaulting party. The
number of miners could not be learn

been at least fifty shots along the
line. Word was sent to Shelburn and
two companies are now marching TO rein
force the attacked militia under Col. JOIN
w. Ebel of Terre Haute. The troops in the
fight are of Company B from Terre Haute.
Later.-The report of a clash between the

MUST COME FROM THE BISHOP.

Mgr. satolli Will Not Discuss Orders
Concerning Secret Societies.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 20.-Mgr. Satolli,
the apostolic delegate, says any inform
alton concerning the recent letter to
Bishop Mcdonnell, affecting secret soci-
eties must come from the bishop. The
delegate says his only Office in the mat
ter was to transmit the communication
exactly as it came from Rome, and that
it involved no action or ruling on his
part.
He was asked if the ban OF the church
was to be placed on other secret socie-
ties than the Knights of Pythias, Odd
Fellows and Sens of Temperance, but
he declined to give any information as
to how specific societies we're affected,
or what punishment would be visited
upon their individual members in case
they continued their membership.
high ecclesiastical authority outside
of the delegation station stated that it
was his undertaking that the action
of the church aa against secret societies
in general rather than q specific society
being designated. This, however, could
not be verified from the delegate. He
insisted that az he was merely chan
mel of communication in this case he
had no concern in the subject, and the
prophecies required that the bishop
who received the communication should
be the one to judge how far it should be
made public.
