DONE BY DASTARDS. A Train Thrown by Strikers
 From a TreStle. Three Regulars Killed Whose Com rades Swear to Have Revenge
 Upon the Strikers.
By the A ssnniatad Press

By the Associated Press.
 SACRAMENTO, July l1.-Shortly after noon a train was made up for San Francisco under a military guard of twenty-five men. It consisted of a locomotive, five mail and two express cars, one baggage, three day coaches, three Pullmans and one diner; this was the overland which lay here thirteen days.
 There were six soldiers on the engine and others on the platform of the cars. The train got 8 headway of twelve miles an hour. When two and a half miles out the train entered on a long trestle. The locomotive went over, bottom up, and landed in six feet of water. The next two cars were piled on top. The engineer and three sol. diers all went under. Their bodies are still under the wreck in six feet oi writer. The wreck WAS caused by rail having been taken up, the spikes pulled, the fsh-plates removed and then the rail put back again in place.

Chief Justice Baker Denies Habeas
 Corpus to imprisoned Strikers. Special to THE REPUBLIcAN.
 PRESCOTT, Ariz., July 11.-Chief Jus tice Baker today denied writ of habeas corpus in the case of Thos. Jackson, D. M. Lynch and Chas. Salinas, the imprisoned strikers. They were com- mitted last Monday by Judge Hawkins for contempt of court in intimidating engineers on a road in the hands of receivers. They were the leaders in the disturbance at Flagstaff, on the A. and F.. in the early days of the strike.

IT LOOKS WEAK. The Backbone of the
 Strike is Broken. Everything Hangs on the
 Knights of Labor.
The Next Three Days will Be
 Days of Apprehension.
Debs and Sovereign Declare that
 the Success of the Movement.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
 CHICAGO, July 1.-The general strike ordered by Master Workman Sovereign was not precipitated today. Assurance is not felt that the strike will not take place. In fact the result of the order is yet matter of the most serious conjecture. But unless the Knights of Labor respond to the call of their leader the great railroad tie-up and the Pullman boycott is nearing the end.
 Trains on all railroads are moving with greater regularity than they did yesterday and there is little in the ap- pearance of things to recall the serious ness of the situation three days ago. Order prevails throughout the city, but the police and military have not relaxed their guard, for recurrence of riot is possible at all times until the matter is entirely settled.
 Except in a few isolated cases the railroads throughout the country have materially gained ground today. There have been new strikes on @ few unim- portant divisions of some roads, but these in all cases have been due to a too ready acceptance of Sovereign's or der and have not been directly in sym pathy with the A R T. movement. Shoald the Knights of Labor strike not become general these will fall to pieces of themselves.
 The report that the striking Pullman employers were willing to return to work on the company's terms has not been verified. The situation on the coast is variously regarded here. Its seriousness is admitted, but it is gener- ally believed that the outrages by the strikers or their sympathizers will result in alternating great deal of popular sympathy.
 President Egan of the General Man ager's association, sad tonight that though he was hopeful of an early and favorable termination of the trouble, apprehension could not be allayed be- fore next Saturday. If the general strike does not go into effect then, or before, he believes that the present troubles will be rapidly dissipated. The result of the meeting of the execu- tive committee of the Federated labor organizations tomorrow afternoon may furnish basis for successful prophecy

 This is a correct list of the men who were killed in the derailment of the train two miles and half below this city this afternoon. The wounded are:

 Private Wilson, left leg seriously lacerated.
 Private Dugan, left arm cut off.
 Private Ellis, internally injured.
 It is believed that Daumier cannot survive his wounds.
 Shortly after o'clock this morning steamers Alameda and Acme, carrying regular troops, landed at Y street levee. Several companies of militia met them and kept the crowd back. Shortly after 7 o'clock the regulars marched toward the depot headed by Col. Graham and staff. After them came the Hotchkiss and Gatling guns guarded by g foot battery and marines and the cavalry was in the rear. At g o'clock the depot was cleared of everyone and a switch engine was put to work to clear the main track.
 After this an order was issued to take the overland to San Francisco. Sam Clarke, one of the oldest engineers in the employ of the company, took charge of the engine and a man named Denekamp, railroad emeloye. acted as fireman; Sam Reynolds was conducto Acting under instructions from General Graham, nineteen regulars accompanied the train.
 As the trdin pulled out of the depot an ominous silence prevailed. The strikers were evidently not in a happy mood, and frequently hinted that the train would not reach San Francisco Such proved the truth. Not shot was fired, but the strikers had uns piked the ra1ls for a distance of about 100 feet, and covered thesr dastardly work with sand.
 Engineer Clark, otwithstanding that he was on the alert for such cowardly tactics, plunged into the trap. The engine was overturned and several cars were upset. Clark was killed, and pr l. yates Byrne. Lubberding and his name- sake met similar fate.
 The regulars are in an ugly mood on account of the death and injury to their comrades and seem anxious for a skir- mish with the strikers. Many of them claim that General Superintendent Fillmore assured Gen. Graham that the road had been carefully gone over and further declared that he knew that the strikers would not resort to any desperate measures to win the strike. It was not until he had assured Gen. Graham of the supposed good condition of the road that the latter consented to send his men to escort the train to San Francisco

The Strike Said to Have Entirely

 CHICAGO, July 1.-The great railroad strike is practically at an end in Chi. cago. Trains on all the roads are nov. ing. Passenger trains are almost with. out exception on time and freight traffic is rapidly becoming regular.
 "The back bone of the strike is not only broken" said Manager Egan oi the general managers association, "but the back bone has entirely disappeared The blockade is raised and 1t will re- quire but short time to get business back into the usual routine."

out of my hands now," he said, land I have nothing more to say. The lead CTS in labor organizations have ordered a strike, not at my request, and they are handling the affair. That general strike will be successful I have no doubt. It makes no difference if the railroads can run trains, for they will have no freight to carry with general tie-up of business in effect"

strikers late this afternoon ditched two trains at East Oakland and completely blocked the track. They did this in order to prevent San Jose trains from getting in. The feeling among railroad men over the outrage at Sacramento is intense.
 Engineers are more bitterly opposed to A. R. U. men than ever, while the strikers say the train wreck was one of the fortunes of war. No further de- velopments in the strike situation at Oakland is expected tonight.

The Situation in Northern Cal- ifornia Regarded as More Serious Than at any Time During the
 Strike.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
 SAN FRANCISCO, July 1.-The rail- road blockade ill northern California is still unbroken and in fact, the situa- tion tonight is deemed more serious than it has been at any time hereto fore. Human lives have been sacri- feed at Sacramento in horror which the strikers are accused of haviug per petrated. All the victims but one were soldiers.
 It is clear that the strikers t-3alize the folly of openly resisting the United States army as they have re- sisted all the municipal and state au- thority. From the dastardly tactics employed this afternoon at Sacramento against the regulars and the railroad company it is apparent, however, that more barbarous and more deadly tactics of guerilla warfare will be resorted to.
 Twice during the day were troops am- pushed at the wharves where a de- tachment of state militia had been left to guard the water front. The regular troops were no sooner out of sight than this little band of militiamen were fired upon by force of some twenty five men concealed in the bushes on the opposite side of the river. The militia men returned the fire and about 200 shots were exchanged across the river before the attacking party fled. A Japanese hoy who stood on the bank of the river was killed by ball from the militia band. None of the attacking party were apprehended.
 At noon aIpassenger train was dis patched for Oakland, under a strong military guard. Among the crowds of strikers in the streets were men who openly boasted that the train would never reach Oakland. An hour later, when the news came back to Sacra- mento of the horrible railroad wreck in which at least four men perished, these same men were as loudly denying that | the men were strikers who had sawed away the supports of the railroad bridge, and caused the plunge to death. The disaster at the bridge caused the l railroad company to cease it's efforts to move trains out of Sacramento. Until the wreckers now at work have repaired the damage done to the trestle, no trains can be run over that line.
 At Oakland today the outlook is also warlike. An extra force of 150 special policemen and deputy sheriffs has been sworn in. Preparations were made early in the day to start trains simul- taneously with those sent out from | Sacramento, but the strikers killed" the engines and as the news of the Sac ramento tragedy reached the ears of the railroad officials at Oakland no further attempt was made to start out trains. Tonight trains are running in northern California only on the coast division. Neither in San Francisco nor San Jose did the strikers cause any dis turbance during the day.
