OUT ABOUT CAMBRIDGE.

Miners Laughed at Court Mandate.
but Dispersed When the Troops AR
rived.
The news from Cambridge and vicin-
ity, yesterday, was of an alarming ma
ture, but many Of the stories sent in
were found, upon investigation, to be
wholly without foundation.
The station of Mineral Siding, four
miles east Of Cambridge, was the point
where the miners congregated early In
the morning, and where the railroad
was blockaded with coal cars.
At ten o'clock in the morning there
were between five and six hundred
striking miners about the siding. They
held up two LONG coal trains, aud this
blockaded all traffic at that point. At
twelve o'clock noon, when Adjutant
General Howe marched out to the scene
at the head of fifteen hundred Ohio
militiamen, the scene suddenly changed
and there was not miner to be seen.
They had taken to the wooded hills
back Of the track, and from these Sc
cluded retreats they watched the move
ments of the soldiers without giving
any indication of their presence.
An Injunction from the Courts was
served on them this morning to restrain
them from further interfering with
property of the B. & o. They laughed
at the officer who served the papers,
and said they proposed to stay there
until the strike was settled. The pres
ence of soldiery, however, had an in
Simultaneous effect Not miner was
seen all day. A part OF the Eighth reg
iment and battery c, OF the First Artil-
lery, will remain until to-day. The
Seventeenth regiment and battery A.
went on TO St. Clairsville junction last
evening to release the trains held up
there. Traffic was resumed at Mineral
Siding at five o'clock last evening and
10 further trouble is feared while the
troops are on the ground.
About nine o'clock last night reports
were wired to this city from two or three
points that there had been collision
between the troops aud miners at Min
eral Siding, and that a number OF men
had been killed. A little later tele-
gram from Canton said that news had
reached there that several members Of
the Canton military company had been
killed, and that the telegraph Office
was surrounded by an excited and anx-
ious crowd, waiting for details. At 1890
a. M, this rumor Of a fight had not
been confirmed.

STRIKE NOTES.
Events Occurring Yesterday on This side
of the River

Events Occurring Yesterday on This side
of the River.
Some time Wednesday night I'M
known persons demolished the air shaft
OF Dougherty's coal mine, lear the low
er end OF the city.
Late last night the 3. e. o. sent six
engines to the Boggs' Run yards, 10
move the coal there. A big crowd con-
gregated and the engines were prevent
ed from moving. They were still there
at an early hour this morning.
II was currently reported on the
South Side yesterday, that seven mi
ners had stopped train near the Riv-
erside iron works, and that II had not
been allowed to proceed. There seems
TO have been nothing in the rumor.
A large number OF miners and others
were at Benwood Junction yesterday
watching the West Virginia coal come
into the yards. IL will not be a surprise
to-day il the miners make an attempt 10
keep the fuel from being taken from
the yards.
Everything was quiet Yesterday on
the w. IL Il, IL. Inc miners were IN
greater numbers along the tracks at
and above Warrenton, but they did not
modest the traffic in any way. The
road did not attempt TO run any coal,
and will not for a couple Of days at
least.
There are over 200 car loads OF coal
on the switches of the Boggs Run Min
ing Company in South Wheeling. The
B. & o. kept filing all its switches
there yesterday, until there is
more coal there than ever was known
in that part OF the city. When
the Company attempts to
move the fuel there is bound TO be some
trouble, as the miners are not 10 for
letting it leave the yards. Last night
there was an exciting scene there, when
the trainmeu went there with an engine.
About fifty miners rushed to the spot
with the evident intention Of hlndering
the fuel from being carried from the
yards. When IL was found that none OF
the coal was to be taken the miners left
the grounds.

the vestIbuled passenger train for the
West, which had been at Benwood
Junction for sixteen hours, went
through Bellaire.
A reporter for the REGISTER visited
the camp of the miners. west OF Bel
laire, during the afternoon, and founu
everything quiet The men were loung-
ing about on the grass, smoking their
pipes and discussing the situation:
They appeared to be quiet, orderly and
well.behaved citizens, and were con-
suicuous by the absence OF the Foreign
element, as there were not more than
dozen foreigners among the whole body
of about two hundred men. In CONVEX
sation with some OF the miners
the reporter was informed that
they deprecated violence OF any
sort. and would not permit
the destruction of property or interfere
with the moving OF any trains, other
than those hauling coal. In regard to
the story circulated as 70 the miners
throwing coal out of the cars while
they were standing on the main track,
thew desire to have it distinctly under
stood that they are entirely innocent,
as not a miner threw a single lump OF
coal from the cars, but that IL was done
by boys.
When asked as to what they would do
If the troops came and attempted to dis
perse them, they replied that sit Is
hard TO tell, but we have our instruc-
tions, and are not permitted to give out
any information.
The miners were expecting the ar
rival of the troops, and were waiting
for them, but stated that they
Anticipated no serious trouble, as the
road was open and they had committed
no depredationS. They regard the &C.
ton OF the B. 81 o. Company in attempt
ing to ron out the coal train and after
ward leaving IL standing on the main
track, when it could have been SIDE
tracked, as a scheme to get them into
trouble, and are not in very good
humor about it. That is the reason
they took the coal train into their own
hands and brought it back 10 Be!aire
before the arrival of the troops, The
engineer Of the coal train said he tele-
graphed from st. ClairsvIlle Junction to
ders as TO the coal train, but as the Su-
perintendent was on one Of the three
sections OF train No. Il, coming east
with troops, ne could not be reached,
and no one else at Newark had author
lty to give him orders. He therefore
allowed the train TO stand where IL was.
The miners have plenty Of provisions,
claiming that they have enough 10 last
a siege of two weeks and can get more
ifitis required. Three wagon loads
were sent out from Bellaire yesterday.
They have the sympathy OF the farmers
and others in the vicinity, who are not
only keeping them in supplies, but are
delivering them at their camp,
Last night about half-past seven
o'clock the 3. & O. again attempted to
run train OF coal out of Bellaire, but
the crew were compelled to stop at Nc
GAINESVILLE by the miners there, word TO
that effect reaching BellaIre at eight
o'clock.

NEAR BELLAIRE

The b. & .. Entirely BIockaded for Six
teon Hours-An Attempt to Move Coal
Last Night Failed.
At noon Yesterday all business was
blocked on the B. & o. because Of the
coal train, which was held up by the
miners Wednesday evening at McCIsins-
Vile, three miles west Of Bellaire, being
left on the main track.
The engines were detached by the
train men and sent to st. Clairsville
Junction, leaving the coal train stand
ing where it was stopped. The miners
held a meeting about noon, aud it was
decided to remove the train from the
main track, so as not to 10
terfere with the running Of
the mail and express trains.
About o'clock in the afternoon the
coal train, which consisted Of about
twenty-five cars, was run back to the
B. & o. yards In Bellaire, in three sec
tions, by the miners themselves. 1t
was a very dificult task, as a part OF
the way was up grade, and the men
were compelled to move the cars one at
time with crow bars. Finally they
succeeded in getting the entire train,
with the exception Of three cars, safely
side.traeked in tho yarde. The other
three cars were run on the side-track st
McClsinsville by the COn,pany, ana By
two o'clock the road was open, and at

Colorado's Legislature.

DENVER, Col, Jan. l0.-Govern-
or Waite has issued call conven-
ing the Legislature in eXtraordi-
nary session today. The call is
characteristic of the Governor. He
claims that this session will give
the Legislature the lest Opportu-
nifty it ever had to do something
for Colorado. The call was issued
against the protests of the mercan-
tile community of the state.
The governor justifies his procla-
nation by declaring that the min
ing interests of the state have been
unjustly and unconstitutionally
attacked by Congress and the pres
ent administration that the panic
has so reduced values and increased
burdens of taxation that agricultu-
rists, fruit-growers and .stock-rais-
ers are obliged to sell their pro-
ducts below the costs of producing
them, and that the extraordinary
remedies now granted to creditors
in Colorado should be repealed.
The governor also suggests many
subjects of legislation affecting va
rious loan interests in the state.

The Same Negro Desperate.

SPRINGFIELD, Ills, Jan. TO-
Twelve vacant houses in a certain
neighbOrhOOd on North Second
street, are the result of a negro
superstition, and sequel to sem
sational story published extensive
ly in the newspapers last summer.
Seay S. Miller, a colored man,
with his wife, had to come here
from Cairo, and later in the year
was hanged and burned at
Bardsville, KY, for having as
saulted and murdered two girls.
The affair created much
excitement among the cOlOred
people of the north, a strong pro-
test being made that the wrong
man had been put to death.
A few nights ago Mrs. Morris, a
colored woman, who lived next
door to where Miller lived, heard a
noise, and going to the door, saw
Miller'sibody in burning seethlng,
writhing condition, which almost
frightened her to death. Two
nights later Mrs. Benson, another
neighbor, saw the form Of Miller
flaming and tumbling through the
air and darting into the
later Miller residence. On
each occasion the electric light on
the corner went out. The exodus
has been complete, and every
house in the vicinity is offered at
low rent, with no takers.

AUSTIN, Tex, Jan. 10.-TSpeciall
The gay life of the Capital City
proved too mu CHI for the stockmen
last night, and it was after eleven
this morning before they began
struggling meekly into the Con-
vention hall, though the meeting
was called for nine o'clock. Gov.
Hogg was first on the program in
speech. Incidently he took occa-
sion to announce that he would
not run for governor, or any office
again, that he had reached the
zenith of his glory, and
was now going to his setting, by
retiring to law practice at Tyler.
He told the stockmen that he had
helped them in the past and would
in the future; that his railroad
commission was their savior, and
they must help him out on it, and
bring the railroads to time. He
questioned the reporters as to
whether he had furnished them
with copy of his speech, and re-
ceiving denial, said he was safe
then, and proceeded deep into the
subject of legislation pertaining to
stOckmen and politics, incidental
ly.
Colonel McGaughey was present,
and is speaking at l o'clock, put
ting in some taffy for the cattle
men, and making political capital.
The convention is extremely slow
in getting down to work, but the
boys are having a good time. S.
