MINERS STRIKE.
BIoodshed Possible Before
Trouble is Settled.
Railroads Guarded and Business
Partially ParaIyzed.

ELuEFIEso w. Va, May 2.-Ths strike
is on in the West Virginia field along the
Norfolk and Western railroad. Not a
mine is in operation. Thousands OF
miners met mt keystone yesterday TO or
ganize and perfect measures 10 induce or
force the Pocahontas men 20 join the
strike. A delegation was appointed for
that purpose.
No dissatisfaction exists among these
Virginia miners, as they have not been
cut. In the event of refusal TO join the
strike, force doubtless will be attempted,
and both sides are determined. The ci IL
gems of Pocahontas will ard the home
miners, and they have ample arms and
ammunition.
The West Virginia miners are swarm
ing in ON every train, and the situation Is
alarming. No shipments Of coal are be-
ing made at Blueheld. The cut OF 20 per
cent in wages was never contemplated by
the Virginia companies, and there are
emily
Few Union Men Among Them.
In the event of trouble at Pocahontas,
the Virginia miners only number 300,
against 1000 In West Virginia. and re-
sistance could not last long. Bloodshcd
will only be averted by caution and con-
ciliation.
The railroad at important points Is be-
Ing guarded, and Superintendent Mayer
of the Pocahontss division Of the Norfolk
and WesterB and Captain McCleliand
and Superintendent Hippeick OF Roanoke
spent yesterday among the coal fields.
Business ts partially paralyzed, and
many miners are leaving for thcr homes.
An outbreak may occur at any time The
strike is understood to be practically TO

BALLS HEIRS,
Lucky Residents of Ohio Who
viii Inherit a Snug
Fortune.
The Millionaire of California Died
Without Disposing of His
Property.

CLEVELAND, OHIO, Oct. 4.-Calvin
Ball of Canton, Ohio, sixty miles south of
this city, was the recipient a day or two
ago of a letter written from Northern
California by man who advised him that
he was his cousin, several times removed,
and one of the descendants of Ephraim
Ball in Ohio, who were the heirs to a half
interest in the property of a California
millionaire named Ball, who died in Cali
fornia bachelor and without will.
Mrs. Homer McDaniels of Cleveland,
who is one of the family, was in Canton
VIII en- the letter was received, but was just
starting for her home in this city She
brought the news here, but was not well
posted on California names and addresses,
However, there were three brothers named
Ball, who lived in Maryland in the la tier
part of the last century, having arrived
there from England. One of these brothers
later went to California, another was
wholly lost sight of, and the third,
Ephraim, moved to Stark County, Ohio.
He died in 1865, aged 81; His son, also
named Ephraim, was of the firm of Bell,
AuItman & Co., manufacturers of agricul-
tural implements, and distinguished in
ventor.
He is dead and his daughters are Mrs. j.
G. Geiger and Mrs. w. L. Latter, of this
city, and Mrs. G. D. Cobaugh of Canton.
The last named is Mrs. McDaniels' mother.
These daughters and their children are the
heirs. The writer OF the letter said he
was the descendant of the third brother,
who had been altogether lost sight of and
that he had located the Californian and
found he had died a bachelor, rich, and
without will. The letter asked for a
family tree of the Ohio people, which will
be furnished.

WAR UPON GUTIERREZ.
Rowing Bands United and
Defeated the Forces Sent
Against Them.
NO QUARTER WAS ACCORDED.
Wounded Soldiers Bayoneted to
Death by the Merciless Men
of the Insurrection.

SAN SALVADOR, Oct. 4.-For the
last two weeks small bands, which the
Government claimed were bandits, have
been prowling near Chaltenango, threat
ening to attack that town, which is gar
risoned by only sixty soldiers. Two hun
dred addition al soldiers were ordered
there.
The bandits, hearing of the arrival, pre-
pared an ambush seven miles off. When
the soldiers arrived they were attacked by
the bandits.
At the first volley thirty soldiers were
killed. The rest commenced to retreat,
pursued by the bandits, who killed many.
Soldiers wounded on the ground were
bayoneted.
Over fifty soldiers Joined the enemy.
The garrison at Chaltenango, hearing
the firing, went to the rescue of their COM
rades. but the rioters prepared an ambush
for them, into which they were easily led
and from which it is believed only ten es-
capped. The rioters claim that their loss
was insignificant.
The Government claims that the assail-
ants were only bandits and small in num-
bers, while others claim that this force
combined five small revolutionary bands,
who united. They recognize no leader,
and are only opposed to the Gutierrez
regime.

are being placed in working order to the
end that the ties and rails may be loaded
directly on the cars and not have to be
handled several times.
There are many little details in railroad
construction work the importance of which
can only be appreciated by railroad men,
and Superintendent of Construction Will
bur says they take almost as much time as
the work on the line.
Z 1t is thought now that the first trainlead
of material will start for the country about
Thursday next. The Claus Spreckels has

been selected as the engine to move the
cars and Henry Vogelsang will be the en-
gineer.
Mr.. Vogelsang can be seen any day pol
ishing and decorating the big engine at its
place on a switch in the rear of Buells
lumber-yards. The engineer seems to
have taken great fancy to the locomo-
tive, and guards it as carefully as though
1t were some animate being.
More cars from the Hammond Works
are expected daily, and if it is found that
one construction train cannot do the work
aasecond one will be put on.
Grant Brothers and the sub-contractors
are pushing on toward the Stanislaus
River at such a rate that it is hard to keep
track of them. The seventeen miles of
grade winding its way from the city limits
speaks more plainly than any pen descrip-
ton of the progress of the Valley road A
local paper says in regard to the first con-
struction train
The making up of this construction
train gives the enterprise much more of a
business appearance than anything else
could do. We will soon see it going out
in the morning with its load of men and
material and coming back at night with
the tired men, until presently work has
progressed so far from Stockton
that a division headquarters must
be started down the road, and
then viii commence the running of local
passenger train to accommodate the num-
erous inhabitants of the several new towns
that have been started along the line who
are now anxious to have railway COM
munication with Stockton. At the rate
