FIGHT THE ROCK ISLAND.
The People of Pond Creek and Enid
Want More Troops.

POND CREEK, q. r.. July 17-Mayor
G. b. Frank has wired to acting Governor
Lowe that on Saturday, the 21st, the city
authorities proposed to put into effect the
ordinance requiring the Rock Island
trains to stop at the principal street of the
city and flag the crossing. He wished the
Governor to call for the assistance of
United States soldiers to make the city
ordinance effective, the local force being
inadequate. The Mayor added that the
Government had established the city and
was in simple justice bound to afford it
protection from the tyranny of any railroad
company and to assist it in enforcing its
laws for the benefit aud protection of its
citizens. No answer has been received
from the Governor.
The Mayor of Enid has wired the Gov
ernor and United States authorities that
The local authorities are unable to keep
down insurrection or to apprehend the
men who have been destroying the rail.

this latter request.

the south outskirts of the city as a special
train carrying troops of A Cavalry from
Enid to Pond Greek station passed TODAY.
One shot exploded under the train, but did
no damage. The other blew out the cattle
guard and would have demolished the
train had it exploded al few seconds earlier.

roads here state that their roads will move
trains in and out of this city as soon as a
sufficient force of regular troops arrive.

MTACoMA, Wash, July 17.-Three hun
dred and fifty-one new employees have
been put to work on the Pacific division of
the Northern Pacific since the strike be-
gan. Practically all The engineers have
returned to work. Many of the switch
men, conductors, freight clerks and some
Aremen who quit have asked for their posi-
+ tions, but not all could be taken back. as
new men had been employed. The road
would be in operation as usual from end
to end, officials say, but for the guerrilla
warfare that is being continued. The
force of deputy marshals in this State has
been reduced from 800 to 200. All bridges
are being guarded, chiefly by regulars.

Northern Pacific.

HELENA, Mont, July l7.-ReportS from
all portions Of Montana are to the effect
that trains are running on the Northel q
Pacific main line close to schedule time.
and that the company has enough applica-
tons 10 fill every vacancy. All engineers
and conductors, with a few exceptions.
have applied for work, and in twenty
four hours the company will be able to
handle freight. The only delay now
comes from the destruction Of bridges.
Since the road first began to operate under
military protection more than twenty
bridges have been destroyed by fire. III
the last twenty hours three big bridges
have been burned on the Rocky Mountain
division. The people of the whole State
are becoming aroused over the burning of
bridges and volunteers are coming for
ward with offers to guard bridges and to
shoot any man caught in any act that will
endanger life. The State has offered a
reward OF $1,000 for the capture OF any
criminal of this sorr.
MIssoULA. Mont, July 17.-An east
bound Northern Pacific train, The first in
sixteen days, was wrecked to-day at a
point about two miles east of here by a
dynamite cartridge concealed in the track.
The engine had barely struck the spot
when terrific explosion was heard, the
shock shatteriug the pilot and right cylin-
der and piston rod. 1t also broke the
windows of the cab and mailcar. Had the
engine gone fairly over the cartridge the
result would have been more disastrous. as
some eight coaches constituted the train.
which was loaded with troops and pas
sengers. The strikers denounced the act
in unmeasured terms. There is consider
able feeling over The return to work OF
some engineers and conductors, and it is
believed some one 10 sympathy with the
strikers adopted this method of deterring
future progress. A trestle 100 feet long,
three miles west Of here, and one $50 feet
long on the CGur d'Alene branch were
burned last night.

SUIT IN EQUITY ORDERED.
But Disintegration Was Never
Contemplated.
NO CONFLICT WITH THE LAW.
Department Opinion That Combina-
tions Were Contemplated by the
Interstate Commerce Act.

- WAsH9N GToN, July 17.-Attorney-Gen-
eral Olney to-day expressed his doubts of
.tbe correctness of the published reports as
TO the basis and purpose of the suit
brought against the Southern Pacific Rail-
way Company at Los Angeles. Late last
week, the Attorney General received a
telegram from Attorney Denis stating
that he had reasons for believing that the
Southern Pacific was not making proper
efforts to run its trains and asking for
Authority to file against the company a
bill in equity under the antitrust act of
July. 2, 1890. This authority was given
and its intention was tC compel the
3. .eDmbany at least to try to fulfill its con-
.trgets with the Government for the carry
ing Of the mails and also to make an
effort toward resuming interstate traffic.
The conduct of the Southern Pacific had
been in marked contrast with that of
, s0me-of the other companies in this re-
spect. and it was the Attorney-GeneTaPS
understanding that the suit would be
brought to compel the performance of its
duties under the law. and as far as he
knew, for no other purpose.
: :Mk Oluey questions the correctness of
that part OF the report which stated that
one purpose of the suit was TOO cancel and
a2nul ali agreements by which the South
.eyn. Pacific and certain other companies
were consolidated. It is the opinion OF the
.oficials at the Department of Justice that
such copsolide tions are not only legal but
were. contemplated by the Interstate COM
~mercs act. just what the facts are has not
yet been learned.
=: 1t is understood the selection of the
commissioners to investigate the late strike
was under discussion by the Cabinet to-
day; but so far there are no open indica-
tions of speedy action in the matter. The

greatest circumspectiOn in choosing men of
