Pattfson's Message Criticised.

COLUMBUS, o., May 30.-Sheriff Riley
of Athens county, to-day called on Gov
ernors Mckinley for troops to release a
train seized by miners at Glouster. The
Governor, who was in Cincinnati, at once
ordered out several companies of the Ma
tional Guard. The trouble was adjusted,
however, before the troops left the city.
Glouster is at the junction OF the Colum-
bus, Shawnee & Hooking and the Toledo
& Ohio Central roads The Toledo &
Ohio Central taps West Virginia. The
Norfolk & Western has been delivering
cars of coal in West Virginia to the Toledo
& Ohio Central. 1t was some of this coal
that had been stopped at Glouster. A
bridge was burned near Glouster to more
effectually stop the coal traffic.
About O'Clock this evening a telegram
was received at the Governors Office from
Sheriff Riley, of Athens county, stating
the Toledo &c Ohio Central Railway Com
pany had agreed to capitulate to the
miners, and no more West Virginia coal
would be hauled during the strike. The
sheriff asked that the call for troops be
revoked. Five companies of the Seven
teenth Regiment were under arms ready
to proceed to Glouster. and Bat
terry III, Of Columbus, was on its way
to the Union Depot when the news of the
settlement of the trouble was received.

WASHINGTON, May Ex-senator PETER
has been making an address to the Fitz-
gerald, or Boston legion Of the common
veal. at it's headquarters in Mount Pisgah
negro) Chapel. Agitator Swift introduced
the Kansas Senator, who said that there
have been a number of things in the way
of consideration of the various bills he has
introduced for the benefit of the iaboring
man of the country. The tariff measure,
he said, is in the way; the churches are in
the way; the newspapers are against it
and the money power with its headquar-
ters in Wall street is in the way. Wall
street is the seat of all the deviltry to-day,
where they gamble and speculate in the
blood and sweat of their fellowmen. The
Senator said the opposition must be con-
verted. "Some men," he said, you must
sit down with and convert their reason;
others must be reached by warming their
hearts, while there are others still that you
must take by the throat and intimidate"
He then spoke of the attitude of the Popu-
lists and prophesied that they would con-
troll legislation by the time of the incoming
of the next century.

The Goyernor criticised.

PITTSBURG, May 30.-Concerning Gov
ernor Pattison's proclamation issued to-day
calling on good citizens in the coke regions
to refrain from in any way aiding and
abetting riotous demonstrations. etc.. Pres
ident John Cairns, of the Pittsburg Dis
trict United Mine Workers, said tonight:
81 do not believe the Governor has any
right to order men to disperse when they
assemble peaceably upon their own prop
erty or when they march unarmed and
with no violent intent along the public
highway. To say that we shall not meet
for counsel. as this proclamation would
seem to contemplate, is, / think, for the
Governor to exceed his powers and Gunc-
tions, and shall probably so advise the
miners"
Organizer John Nugent was more We
hement and indicated that he thought the
Governors action would arouse the indig-
nation of miners everywhere. He said:
What right has the Governor to tell US
we shall not hold meetings upon grounds
which We have for that purpose. His
action is insult to every miner in this
State If / have any voice in the matter
no attention will be paid to the proclama-
tion."
Five thousand miners met to-day at
Carnegie and passed resolutions condemn
ing the Sickle Hollow massacre and call
ing for the legal punishment OF those who
are responsible for the killing Of the
miners. The meeting was a sort of me-
mortal and was very orderly, but earnest.

explosion took place. The main pipe OF
the starboard engine had burst. Far
above the noise of escaping steam were
heard the heart-rending cries of the in
jured and dying. A panic temporarily
spread among the crew, but after mo-
ment's hesitation every effort was put
forth to rescue the unfortunate men in
the engine-room.
1t was found that of the eleven artificers
all but one had been killed. The man
who escaped owed his preservation to the
fact that at the moment Of the explosion
he was standing on ladder near the top
of the room. His companions were all
on the floor Of the room.
1t was discovered that thirty-nine men
had been killed and nine injured. Thirty
seven were killed instantly.

patched from kiel to the scene OF the dis
aster. They carried number of physi-
clans and surgeons and large quantity
of medical supplies. The guardship Pei
lean, with Prince Henry of Prussia on
board, also put off instantly to the Bran
densburg's aid.
Most Of the dead and injured lived here
or in this neighborhood, and many were
OF family.
The wharves were crowded from the
time the steamers left till they returned
with the victims. as the dead and
wounded were borne from the vessels to
the shore the air resounded with cries of
the bereaved. Those who had not lost
friends or relatives uncovered their
heads.
A strict inquiry will be made into the
cause of the disaster.
