She put on her

young mistress. She was gay indeed

displaying a pair of large fat feet,
encased in a pair of red and white
striped stockings and pair OF IN
mated brogan shoes. A red bandana
bound about her snowy wool and
large white apron Numbered with ex-
quisite skill completed her outfit.
She came in at the side gate and
seated herself with affectionate
familiarity upon the topmost step of
the piazza, waiting for the young
lady to appear. Miss Eta saw her
through the open door and came out,
smiling kindly.
Well, Aunty Tempe, how are You

The next day was big one for

and these will be used TO quarter what
proportion of troops in the city may be
directed TO bivouac at the Southern Pacific
sheds.
Tonight it is extremely quiet here. The
militiamen are resting on their arms at
the armory and yards, but without much
if any fear of disturbance. About town
Sacramento residents are celebrating with
fireworks and general jollfication, with
seemingly no thought of the events which
transDired during the day. In the camp
of the guardsmen, however, the talk and
tendency of thought lie in a moro serious
direction.
Every uniformed young man in the city
realizes the very unfortunate ending OF
the affair at the yards to-day. In every
quarter the opinion is general that had a
shot been fred very few militiamen would
have escaped alive. Under the peculiar
circumstances of their position relative to
that of the mob and the big h pitch of ieel-
ing it is almost certain that the entire
body of soldery would have been de-
prived Of their arms and completely dis
persed and perhaps annihilated. Iu the
mob were not only strikers but casual
spectators and women and children, whose
presence would undoubtedly have reused
the strikers to the highest pitch of fury.
Happily the catastrophe was averted by
the aid of cooler heads and the militia
failed without damage to its members.
Barry Baldwin has turned over every
thing to the troops, and they VIII control
the situation until ordered home. 1t is
thought that Baldwin has called for
United States troops, but nothing more OF
information is obtainable.
Reliable information has been received
at the railroad Office here that six cabo0ses
with strikers on board have left T1uckee
for this place, and also that 100 strikers
armed with WinchesteTs have left Duns-
muir for Sacramento. Division Superin-
tendeut Wright received a telegram from
General Towne directing that the road be
left clear for the strikers. The explana-
ton is that Towns does not propose to
destroy the railroad property to prevent
their arrival, and is quite satisfied that
they should come quietly. They will very
probably arrive tonight.
a dispatch received at the railroad Office
at o'clock tonight states that the strik-
ers' train which left Dunsmulr this after
noon was made up of coach and mailcar.
The strikers forced the mail clerk to ac-
company them. AT $50 o'clock the train
had passed Willows and is expected to
reach here at II o'clock.
At 10 P. NJ. the troops were withdrawn
from the depot As they marched up
Second street they were heartily cheered
by the strikers. The strikers are now in
possession and have fastened the big doors

KNOWN TO THE STRIKERS.
Were Prepared to See the Militia
Fail to Fight,

SACRAMENTO, July 4-The sentiment
of the soldiers seemed TO favor the strikers.
After they had reached the depot it was
said by the leaders of the strikers that the
militia was ''all right" evidently meaning :
that they would not attempt to oppose
them. That the strikers were cognzant
of the attitude of the militia was proven
by the events of the day.
General Sheehan. when seen late to-
night, said that the Sacramento compa-
MES. realizing the utter impossibility of dis
persing the mob, faltered when the COM
mand to charge was given. The general
then went to Marshal Baldwin and in
formed him that unless his men were Or
dered 10 shoot down the strikers if they
offered any resistance they were powerless
to di perse the mob. The Marshal told
him that it would not be necessary to re-
sort TO bloodshed in auelling the rioters.
When the companies were apprised of
Baldwin's determination they marched
back to the armory.
General Sheehan has implicit faith in
his men, and is firmly convinced that If
they had attempted to disperse the. mob
they would have been seriously Injured.

1t is claimed that in many instances the
troops supplied the strikers with cartridges
and Informed them that they would not
attempt to dislodge them. Several of the
San Francisco soldiers were seen to throw
their ammunition into the river. After
the troops had left the depot many of them
re paired to saloons where they drank to
the health of the strikers.
An investigation is to be made. and it is
more than likely that a number of the
militia will be called upon 10 explain their
apparent friendIiness to the strikers.
Late tonight Harry Knox, the leader of
the strikers. was served with an injunc-
ton to prevent him from interfering with
the trains. The writ was issued by the
United States Supreme Court, and was
signed by United States Supreme Justice
Fuller.

Los ANGELES, July 4.-This morning
Governor Markham received a dispatch
from Sacramento signed by the leader f

calling out of the militia and against being

rights through peaceful means and in no
