by and sent committees over to the
mines 10 gather together the miners
The mines of the company closed down
today TO await the decision of the min
ers employed here. There are few in
clined to strike but there is no pros
pect of general strike.
After holding meeting here the
strikers moved up the valley to the
mines of Cook & Sons, where they were
met by several deputies heavily armed,
and were ordered to keep off the COM
pany's property. The mines there also
closed down to let the men meet the
strikers and decide whether or not to
strike.
The mine operators are paying So
cents and say their men have no reason
for striking, except out of fear of vio-
lence. They viii resume as soon as the
men are ready to go in. The striking
miners are camped about the Cook
mines. No fear of violence is felt here.
WITHOUT TROUBLE.

Of inducing the men at work TO come
out, dispersed this afternoon. having
attained their object without trouble
Immediately upon receipt of the news
of the proposed raid the mine owners
at these pits ordered a suspension I'M

afternoon the strikers held a meeting,
at which speeches were made to the
effect that if the men did not remain
cut the strikers would return 1000
strong and bring guns. A committee
was appointed to guard the mines in
case the men returned to work.
The mines viii probably resume to-
morrow. Some of the men are afraid
to go in again, as they say the strikers
threatened violence.

COL. LAMBS FACTION.
THE GATHERING OF THE DELE
GATES IN LYNCHBURG.
A Full Convention EXpected-The
Colonel Intcrviewed-He Says
state Ticket VIII he Nominnted-Is
I'm High Feather.

LYNCHBURG, VA, october i.-(Spe-
cial.)-The convention OF the Lamb Re-
publicans OF Virginia will be held in the
opera-house in this city, beginning to-
morrow at noon. As everybody knows,
the convention is called under rather I'M
usual circumstances. The State Com
mttee Of the Republican party, at meet
ing here at Hotel Carroll. some weeks
ago. deposed Colonel William Lamb, Of
Norfolk. as State chairman, and elected
Mr.. Park Agnew in his place. Colonel
Lamb however. refused to recognize the
authority OF the State Committee. and
proceeded to call convention. Dele
gates to the convention have already
commenced arriving in the city. A large
number reached here on east and west
bound trains this afternoon. and many
more are expected tonight. From all
indications, the convention will be well
attended. That a full State ticket will
be nominated is a foregone conclusion.
but what effect 1t will have or what
weight ii Will carry with ii is altogether
a matter OF conjecture.
Colonel Lamb reached the city this
morning. He was seen in his room at
Hotel Carroll shortly after his arrival
by your correspondent and asked if he
thought the convention would be well
attended. 81 have reason to bel1ev -"
said the Colonel. that a large number
of delegates from all parts of the State
will be present and that the convention
will be thoroughly representative. a
full State ticket-Governor, Lieutenant
Governor, and Attorney-General-will be
nominated. but as TO who will be candi-
dates, have no idea, as YOU are aware
the convention was called under UNI
usual circumstances and rather out of
the ordinary line. What the body will
do / cannot tell, / have decided" con-
tinued Colonel Lamb, that l will. under
no circumstances, be a candidate for re-
election to the position of chairman Of
the State Committee"
Have you any idea as to who will be
chosen for the placer
II have not" replied the Colonel.
lowing to the circumstances that have
the calling of the convention |
necessary, 1t is impossible to say what |
will be done. No slate of any sort has |
been made. The convention represents |
he unpurchasable material of the Re |
publican party in Virginia"
Colonel Lamb seemed to be very much |
elated at the prospects for a good at
tendance, and expressed perfect conf
lence as to the outcome.
