 ING MINERS.
More Rioting Threatened, Though, a Soon as the Soldiers Are withdrawn-Miners Determined to Stop Coal Trsins-Battle Expected at Bun Hill.

WAsHINGToN, Ind, June 4.-Eight 4. companies of state troops marched into Clark's Station 800 strong with gatline gun to find that only about 50 miners had staid to face the music. The militia was drawn up in line along the edge of the woods, and Sheriff Leming then read the warrant against the miners for riotous conspiracy and placed three of the leaders Squire Summers, Dick Gate and John Flynn-undCr arrest, bringing them to here in the afternoon and placing them in jail As soon as the troops were in line the railroad men at once repaired the track, and the loaCtd cars were taken on west
 The ,000 mine $ who were reported an route to Clark's Station did not material ize, neither had u ey collected at any point along the Baitimo re and Ohio Southwest erD. The certain ty that the officers in- tended to enforce the law seemed to quell the rebcllious feeling among the men. The miners say that as soon as the troops are OithdFawn they will again stop all coal cars, but anticipating this, two compa- nies will be statiole ed at Clark's Station until all fear of trouble is passed. Every thing in this city is now quiet, and there is general feeling of relief among all classes. Trains loaded with coal have been passing through the city all afternoon.
 At Brazil the miners are greatly stirred up over the report current that the gov ernor has ordered company of militia from Washington, Ind, to that city to force the movement of coal now standing on the Vandalia side track The third coal train to pass through here was stoned by miners.
 Troops at Sullivan.
 At Sullivan three companies of state militia were brought in, numbering about 250 men. They remained there until an engine and caboose came up from Evans vile, and following the regular train for the north the special with the troops went to Shelburn. A short distance south of the station the special stopped, when the soldiers got off and formed phalaax with fixed bayonets and marched up and sur Rounded the coal cars. Tie engines back ed in, and the cars were coupled together and the train moved out without word of protest on the part of about 150 miners.
 Several hundred people gathered to see the battle between tho miners and the militia. After the militia had fnis he'd their work they came back to Sullivan and went into camp at the fair grounds with only one man in the hI spital He as accidentally dropped his revolver and tle hammer st fixing against something it went of, slooting him in the foot. Sher- itf Mills let Shelburn, going en to Alum cave and demanding the coal the miners had siietracked They gave 1t up with out much difficulty. The militia are here awaiting further orders from the sheriff.
 Four dynamite bombs were found near Shelbsrl and io:c,d of the track by the trains without exploding. A coal train was capturcd by the miners and run to Alum cave, whCre the strikers have rongko,d The militia slept on their arms near Farmersburg last night.

McKeesport, Pa, Held by a Mob.

Mckeesport, Pa, Held by a Mob.
 MCKEEsPoRT, Pa., June 6.-When the workmen in the National tube works who have taken the places of the strikers came from work last night, they were met by a mob of several thousand. Many of the men returned within the inclosure, but a number attempted to get to their homes. These were set upon by the strikers and terribly beaten. The entire police force was on duty, but was powerless. As far as known, no one was killed, but several were badly injured. One man started mp Fifth avenue, and a mob of fully 1000 gave chase. He jumped on an electric car but tho mob surrounded the car, and pull ing down the trolley cut the wires. The cars stopped running. About o'clock the mob surrounded the works and took possession of the plant The sheriff was called upon, and 200 deputies left for the scene on the first train. The mob heard that the deputies were coming and threat ened to kill them. The deputies were un- der the command of Sheriff Richards. The widest excitement prevailed through out the city, and thousands of strikers and their friends were on the streets. When ever nonunion man was seen, a rush was made for him. If he was caught, he WAS given a thorough drubbing In the ! crowd were many women and children. So far as the authorities are able to learn nobody has been killed outright but the injuries of some of the victims of the mobs fury will probably die The strik- CTS have retrained from destroying the machinery in the mills. As midnight ap- proacled the crowds decreased, and com para1ive quiet reigned. All the law abid- ing people went indoors, with the excep- ! tion of the curious few who were willing to take the risks of watching the mob's work. For the night the strikers were vir- | tually in possession of the town.
 In obedience to the mayors prcclama- i tion tho strikers have dispersed. They are only under cover, however, and have every avenue of approach to the city under sur veillance, as they are sura that new men i Cor the tube works and add tional officers ] will come in during the night Pickets 1 have been posted east and west, and men ! are being strung slong the river to give i the alarm, as was done at Homestead | The tube works company is not dismayed i at the work of their c d worSmen aId have i posted notices that all employees who de- i sire to return to their places must return | to work before Thursday. At least 35 men were injured in the rot last night, two i of whom the physicians say will die.
