STRIKERS NEW TACTICS.
They Propose to Keep the Militia
on the Jump.

The strikers In West Oakland have
changed their tactics again. This time
they have so engineered things that
unless something out of the way happens,
the soldiers will not be able to catch a
wink of sleep for the next three or four
days. Then, when they are worn to
shadows. with heavy eyelids and stomachs
weakened and QuaImish from wretched
camp fare. something may happen. The
strikers have not revealed what tina
something is.
From the earliest hour OF yesterday
morning, when the present tactics were
adopted, up till now the young men in
Lieutenant-Colonel Dennis Geary's COM
mand have been kept wide awake. The
long roll has sounded in camp for every
hour in the twenty-four and one new
alarm followed another with remarkable
rapidity.
The first alarm sounded in the camp W as
before o'clock Monday morning, and was
to the effect that a thousand strikers,
armed to the teeth, were preparing tor a
descent upon the encampment, in the hope
of catching the militia mapping. All hands
were aroused, the pcBets were doubled
duu UuUOiltlluS pdttlco WCio oOhO ooe
in all directions. The same rumor was
telephoned the Chief of Police. and at 1
O'Clock a wagon-Ioad of patrolmen was
dispatched to the Perata-street yards.
hour after hour, until the dawn drove
away darkness, the militia was on the
alert for the approach of the armed
strikers. The soldier boys were sleepy
and tired after the hut Sunday In the sun,
and many of them were nearly dropping
at their posts. But they were compelled
to remain and lose their sleep, for the
strikers never came.
And with the dawn came no surcease OF
vigilance. The only change was from
rumOrs that flew In the night to action in
all directions in the broad daylight From
o'clock on up till the night ad descended
again the alarm was sounded and sounded.
and sounded again. in the encampment
around the paintshop. Squads and COM
panies and troops of militia were con-
stantly on the 60. and when 1t was at
tempted to get out the first freight and
break the blockade the entire Second
Regiment of Artillery, the cavalry and
Naval Battalion were called out and kept
almost constantly on the move, charging
ever and again on the crowd.
And so 1t will go on until, the strikers
hope. the militia. disguised with the
fatigues of camp and street DUTY. become
disheartened and will refuse to keep up
the pretense of valor which they do not
feel.
1t is very pretty and may prove very
effective method of warfare. But time
alone will tell. although it is a foregone
conclusion that, pending the end, the
militia will not get much sleep.

FREIGHT TRAINS DEPARTED.
One to Tracy and Another to Men
dnfa Sent Out

The freight train for Tracy which failed
to geS out at noontime departed safely
about o'clock in the afternoon under a
strong guard of troops. Another train for
Mendoza also got out at the same time.
Shortly before the train left a detachment
of the Naval Battalion. consisting of Com
Companies B, &, d, E, f, 6 and II of the
Second Regiment. started on the run for
Cedar street and lined up on each side of
it across to Short street. Then the orders
were given to clear the streets and squads
Of men with bayonets fixed charged up
and down Cedar street and cleared it in
