CONFLICT OF AUTHORITY.
The Governor of Missouri objects to
Federal Interference


KANSAS CITY, July 4-Ths situation in
Kansas City is little changed from yester-
day. This is The first day for week that
matters have not grown worse. The Alton
trains from St Louis and Chicago were
abandoned to-day on orders from Superin-
tendent Gray. The Wabash has laid of
clerks and freight-handlers indefinitely.
The Santa Fe successfully moved three
cars of fruit and one car of eggs to the
East this morning.
General Manager j, j. Frey of the Santa
Fe this evening advised Superintendent
ROraback that President Debs of the A.
R. U. had gwen to the press statement
that the General Managers Association in
Chicago had arranged with MIR. Debs and
officers of the A. r. Z. for a conference.
with view to ending the present strike,
next Saturday. MIR. Frey said in his
telegram that he desired the public to
know that no sucA conference had been
arranged; that the General Managers
Association does not know Mr. Debs, and
that the A. r. U. is not treating with the
men; that the Santa Fe particularly will
arbitrate with no one. but is willing tC
fight the strike out on the lines already
laid down.

nor Stone resented this as an interference
with State rights and as snch wrote tt
General Shelby asking him by what right
a United States officer interfered in
troubles of this kind in the State as he be.
Iieved the State was perfectly capable OF
taking care of its own domestic affairs
and where not able to do so. and finding
it nece, sary TO call for aid from the
Federal Government, would do sc
in approved constitutional form. General
Shelby replied very iartly, adding that he
was acting under orders from the AttOr-
ney-General to clear the passage of the
United States mail, and in pursuance al
the orders was TO prevent such unlawful
interference by arresting on proper war
rants all such offenders. and taking tsem
before the proper Federal tribunal for ex-
animation. He referred Governor Stone
to the Attorney-G neral for light upon the
subject of his authority in the aforemen-
toned procedures.

NATIONALS IN OAKLAND.
Six Companies Massed There-Narrow
Gauge To-Day.

Matters in Oakland proper were very
quiet last night. Early in the evening all
the companies of the Fifth Regiment, ex-
cepting the San Jose company, were massed
at AEmOry Hall on Twelfth street. There
were between 400 aud 500 men there. They
were representatives of Companies a and
F of Oakland, G of Alameda, D Of San
Rafael, G of Petaluma and E of Santa
Rosa. These three latter com panies ca me
down country to Tiburon and then took
boat to the foot Of Broadway. arriving at
SPIN.
When the Sheriff was asked for orders
regarding the disposition Of these troops
he replied that be had nothing to do with
bringing them here and did not know what
was wanted to be done with them. He dis
claimed all responsibility for their pres
ence. It appears that they were sent to
Oakland on the order of General DimOnd
and their orders are TO protect railroad
property. As the railroads property was
in no wise being harmed the militia boys
hardly knew what they were going to do.
They were under command of Colonel
Fairbanks and at II P. NJ were still at the
barracks and expected to remain during
the night
The railroad situation on the narrow
gauge remains unchanged. a dead engine
lay at the Fourteenth-stree station, and
the train with which it started from the
narrow-gauge pier at O'Clock yesterday
still lay across the broad-gauge track at
First and Webster, with every brake set as
firm as a rock. The semaphore at Seventh
and Webster was decorated with an Amer
p lean flag, on which was emblazoned 10 big
letters the wonderful letters "A. r. O."
No trains went south on the narrow
gauge yesterday and but one came. and the
master mechanic said last night that no
arrangements had been made to move
trains to-day, 1t is pretty certain that the
narrow gauge will be tied up to-day from
one end 10 the other.

REACHED THE LIMIT.
Colorado Officers Determined to
Break the Strike.

DENVER July 4.-The strike situation
here is unchanged. The railroads sent
out regular trains, but were unable to haul
two excursions. Efforts to induce the Rio
Grande employees at Denver to strike have
been unayailing.
The American Railway Union was in
session all day. but will give nothing out
for publication. A committee was sent to

the troops, who cbanced to see the letters

most rigid steps warranted by law will be
taken and an effort will be made TO im-

their normal condition. AS means or
accomplishing this, wholesale arrests will
be made. The instructions issued to-day
direct Deputy United States Marshals to
arrest all violators of the law without
warrants, as in this instance violation OF

KNEEBONE'S MURDERERS.
Found by Detectives, But Managed
TO ESCaDe.


WALLACE, Idaho, July 4.-The three
deputies who rode after Kneebone's mur-
derers yesterday overlook three miles
above Burke. They had set Superintend-
ent Neil and his companions free. after
warning them never to return to the
CHur d'Alenes.
While the party was returning to Burke,
j. NJ. Porter rode several hundred yards
in advance of Deputies Hamilton and
Kennedy. Two men halted him and COM
manded him to turn back if he valued his
life. While he was parleyng with them the
other deputies came up and the men ran into
the brush and disappeared. ONeil and the
rest of the party were found several miles
further on in Montana, all gathered
around campfire. After sleeping a few
hours the deputies escorted Nsal over the
divide to Murray. where he remains for
the present in safety.
Krummer, West and Higgins determined
to 90 on to Thompson Falls and get en-
tirely out OF the country. They declared
they had all they wanted of Canyon
Creek and were glad to escape with their
lives. Officers have no clew to the lden-
tity of tie men who committed the out
rage.
Sheriff Cameron took eight deputies to
Gem to-day to give relief to the miners
who had left already for Wallace.
KneebOne's body was brought to Wal
lace to-day. His face was badly cut by
rolling down the mountain after he was
shot. dozen rifles were leveled at him,
but only two were discharged.

"THE PEOPLE AWAKENING"
What Hon. Pat Reddy Thinks of the
Strike.

The heads of the A. r. U. organization
in Oakland have often recently claimed
that they had the best legal talent In the
State il they wanted it, and that every
legal move made by the Southern Pacific
Railroad Company would be answered by
proceedings on their part. Among other
names that of Hon. Pat Reddy has been
mentioned as having been retained by the
a. r. u. to fight its legal battles.
Mr.. Reddy was seen last night at his
home at 2O7 LarklD sir ct and asked about
the matter. He denied absolutely that he
had been retained by the strikers. and
while he did not care to discuss the strike
from legal point Of view in general
way he did not hesitate 10 give his views
on the all-absorbipg topic of the hour

well known TO need much explanation" !"

STOPPING TRAINS.
A Deputy Sheriff Pulls a Revolver
on the Strikers.

Things were quiet now until the train
from San Ramon with the mail aboard
arrived within quarter of mile of Six
teenth street. The engineer saw a great
crowd Of people at Sixteenth street and
stopped the train. The conductor told his
passengers they had better leave the train,
and they did.
Then the train started ahead and ran
down to Sixteenth street, where she was
tagged and came to standstill.
About 400 strikers Immediately sur
rounded the engine, and a half dozen
climbed into the cab and demanded that
the fireman come down.
The fireman was ". W. L. Garfield,
who was, besides. acting in the capacity of
Deputy Sheriff. He was a principal wit
ness in the Howell counterfeiting case.
On the engine with him and Engineer
Looth Cough were four other deputy
sheriffs.
In the crowd of 400 determined men this
little party had little show, but Deputy
Ferd Cullenden, in the excitement of the
moment, attempted to resist and drew his
revolver against the protest of Garfield
himself.
Intense excitement prevailed for few
moments. Had the revolver been dis
charged with injury to any oae a great
riot would no doubt have been precipi-
tated. The other deputies, more cool, re-
Trained from making any show of resist
ance.
Two strikers from behind grasped Cu-
lenden's arm ani held it straight above
his head 80 that be might fire if be wished
without harming any one, but as be con-
tinued TO struggle a striker took up the tx
that is part of the equipment of the ten
der, and lifting 1t above the deputy's head
commanded him. with an oath, to '1et 90
the pistol"
He obeyed, and no further attention was
paid to any other but the fireman. He
was hauled down with such little show of
tenderness that he afterward complained
of a badly wrenched arm.
There was evidently no intention of
harming him, however, and he was re-
leased when on the ground and, upon his
promise mot to fire any more" was al
lowed to 90 back into the cab and bring
away his clothes. BE was then conducted
to Hanson's HAIL. where he was talked
to" by some of the strike committee. He
did net consent to join the union, however,
but as he left the hall numberlof women,
thinking that he had, decorated him with
two o. three button hole bouquets. He had
said that he would think it over"
Train 81 was also stopped as it came in
from NaDa valley; and 81. from Stockton,
LiVermOre and way points, was held at
East Oakland about the same time.
