THE REGULAR TROOPS.

They &c Into Camp at the Arcade Depot
Yard.
The special train from San Francisco,
bearing the First infantry of the regular
army, arrived at the Arcade depot at
o'clock yesterday morning. There were
500 men in passenger coaches and a
dozen officers in the Pullman car Casa
Grande. A baggage car containing 80
days' travel rations and two mail cars
filled with mail made up the train, and
it was not long until the men tum-
bled out OF the cars to etrstch their legs
on the platform, sentries being posted
at the entrances. The frsS move made
by Colonel Shafter was to detail several
officers to look around the depot for a
camp site, and after canvassing the stu
alton it wss deemed expedient to locate
in the railroad yard, at the south end OF
the Arcade depot. A large detail
was at once Get to work to break
out the quartermRster's stores, and in
side of an hour two rows of wall tents
had been erected between the tracks,
and the Pullman car containing the
officers was pushed around by hand to
the track in the rear of the regimental
street.
First Lieutenant Michael Strother
was detailed as officer OF the day, and
Second Lieutenant Joseph Binns as
commander of the guard, and in few
minutes Gordon Of sentres had been
posted around the first camp OF the
First infantry in Los Angeles.
As rule the men of the regiment are

we're few derisive shouts in the depot
but generally the crowd was quiet, ord.
erly and curious as TO the destination of
the aoldiers. The latter point was
quickly settled when the company
turned off Alameda street and marched
over to the Santa Fe depot. Swinging
around on the platform in column OF
fours they executed right front into line
facing toward the railroad tracks with a
surging throng OF hundredst of men and
women pressing around them.
Fix bayonets," came the sharp, clear
command from Lieutenant Starr, and
with the CLINT of steel in the air q, 90 bay
onets flashed from their scabbarde the
crowd fell back and gave the soldier
boys plenty of roor,, and there they
stood stolid and rs impressive as statues
until the train from Barstow arrived.
After the passengers had debarked tho
company formed tours and marched
back to the camp at the Arcade depot.
The crowds continued to visit the camp
until late hour in the evening, but
could go no further than the guard
lines. The boys turned in early, glad to
get good nights rest before the buai-

unknown to the grand jury to obstruct
the passnge OF the mails upon all regu-

venting any goods or passengers from

men were fixed at $1,000 each.

at 10 O'Clock, and arrived at Bakersfield

p. m. Here a HERALD representative
had been sent to accompany them to
this city which he was enabled to do
through the courtesy OF Colonel Shafter.
About half an hour before the military
train arrived ut Bakersfield it was found
that some unknown parties had
"soaped" the inside of the boilers OF the
two hog" engines, with which it was
intended to pull the train over the loop.
This necessitated putting out the fires
and giving the inside of the boilers
thorough securing. In consequence OF
this the train was delayed about three
hours and it was 4 AS before the en-
gines could be gotten ready. In the
meantime crowd of several hundred
people, men, women and children had
collected about the train, and some loud
talking was INDUCED in by aome OF the
strikers who finally persuaded the en-
gineer who had brought the train this
far to get down from his engine. As the
engineer pulled off his cap and threw it
down he said to the strikers who had

A SANTA FEE TRAIN ARRIVES.
A Number of Delayed Passenger From

Number of Delayed Passengers From
Rarstov.
The only exciting incident at La
Grande depot yesterday was the arrival
OF mixed Santa Fe train bearing pas-
sengers, mail and express. which had
been stalled on the desert for five days
past.
During the early part of the day the
depot wac deserted and the depot master
shut and locked the iron doors leading
through the buildin g, remarking as he
did so, that the boys wanted holiday,
and he would close up in the meantime.
Along about o'clock, however, the ap-
psarance OF Company F, U. s. A., from
the camp at the Arcade depot, put sud
den lie in the inanimate aspect and led
to the information being given
out that train would coon
arrive. The crowd kept on grow
ing in Hize until there were several
thousand people on the ground when
the train finally started in at 5 10. Just
before it srrived the soldiers were drawn
up facing the track. A couple OF po-
licemen cleared the crowd between tho
men and the train. It seemed hardly
necessary, however, for no one but
spectators were on hand and only good
uatured curiosity was aroused in the
appearance of the train. 1t consisted of
an engine, box car, day coach and
tourist sleeper. The box car contained
mail, express and baggage. In the day
coaches were number of local passen.

at Barstow and whose destinations were

Barnett was quite ill, but there appeared
to be nothing OF a serious nature, and
she was able to be removed from tho car
to an uptown hotel. They were met by
General Passenger Agents Thompson
and Gregory and their immediate wants
provided for. with the assurance that
they would be forwarded to their desti-
nations as soon az possible, if not by
rail then by water. Aside from the
heat on tho desert and the disagreeable
feature Of existing in such an out OF the
world place. no suffering was expert
enced, and the passengers expressed
gratitude for the attentions shown them.

Locally the strike showed little or no
change yesterday from the day before.
The soldiers, with their much talked
of gatling guns, their cartridges and
Springfield rifles, arrived early yesterday
morning and went into camp at the
Arcade depot. Some OF them proceeded
to get drunk and were promptly placed
in an improvised guard house. Beyond
going into camp they did little and there
was little for them to do.
One company marched from the
Arcade depot to La Grande station and
after clearing the spectators off of a
epace watched a train come in from
Barstow.
The eatling guns were not fred.
All was peace, and the only excite
ment had was the news OF the rioting in
Sacramento and Oakland, and the fail
ure Of the National guard to quell the
disturbance.
Indictments were found by the federal
grand jury against the chairman, secre-
tary and board OF mediation of the local
A. R. U. One deputy United States
marshal arrested the men, who were
taken before District Attorney Denis and
allowed to 60 on their promise to appear
this morning in court.
Conductor HEARTS, case was con.
sinued until today, as yesterday being
legal holiday, it was apprehended that
technically might upset the legal
proceedings.
1t was announced early in the day that
the Southern Pacific would start it's
train for San Francisco ct 2 O'Clock in
the afternoon. but the plan was changed
and no attempt was made to operate
trains on either of the tied-up roads.
A train arrived from Barstow over the
Santa Fe at about 4 O'Clock, bringing a
few unfortunate passengers who had
been detained at Barsrow since last
Thursday.
A number of engineers and conductors
held conference with Superintendent
Muir at the Arcade depot last night
with view OF returning to work, but as
for as could be learned no conclusion
was reached.
A HERALD correspondent came down
with the military train and gives
grsphic account of the trip.
Yesterday was characterized by quiet.
