REGULARS CALLED Upon

CALIFORNIA;.

California.
SAN FRANCISCO, July 3.-United States
troops have at last been called into use in
connection with the great railroad strike
in this state. For the first time in the his
tory of California the military authorities
of the federal government have been called
into the field to prevent trouble within the
borders Of the state. BY order of Gen,
Ruger, six companies Of soldiers, fully arm
ed and ready for thirty-flve days service,
are now on the way to Los Angeles.
This military assistance to the railroad
companies has been given at the request of
the United States marshal Of the southern
district of California. Feeling that he was
unable to give protection to the United
states mails, the marshal called upon the
military authorities. The departure of
United states troops from Anglo Island has
double significance. 1t shows that the
United States government has become in
volved in the trouble, and that the South
ern Pacific Railway Company is succeed
Ing admirably in it's efforts to 0pen stimuli

points in the state.
General Superintendent Fillmore and a
score of United States marshals are at
sacramento; United States troops will be

racine system. The departure of the
troops to Los Angeles means that the eraat

II Is not uninteresting to know what tho

claim that II will not affect in the slight ast
