DR.. John w. Vaughn, who was called

Labor troubles at Washington, Ind.

CINCINNATI, Oct. 4.-Advices from
Washington, Ind, are to the effect that
no renewal of last nights riotous pro
ceedings has occurred. 1t understood
that the men who drove the negr"
miners from their homes last night
We're mostly miners who had been dis
charged from these mines sometime
ago and had since been employed at
Pana, Ills, and elsewhere. There is
no confirmation today of loss of life in
last nights proceedings. The houses
in which the negroes resided are badly
wrecked. Several of the imported labor
ers are to be seen upon the streets today
and it is thought the whites will make
another raid upon them tonight, as they
are determined to rid the county Of non
union miners. Public sympathy is with
the strikers.

Indians at Bear Island Determined
to Resist the Troops.
Soldiers Who Fought at Santiago Arc
the Men Who VIII BE In the Fight.
Settlers Are Terror Stricken-Up-
ri ing of Chippewas Feared.

WALKER, Mimi, Oct 5.-Th.a Indians
are apparently determined to resist the
troops. Captain Edward Lucian has
just come in with the tug Vera. She
had to put in to Bear island last night
on account of heavy weather and was
seized by the Pillagers. Her fires were
put out and the boat tied up by the In
dians. They threatened Lucian with
death unless he revealed the strength OF
the military forces and the time start
would be made for Walker. Lucian
could not give the information they
wanted and was held until daylight this
morning and then released. He says
the bucks were in war paint and feath-
ers. General Bacon has landed his de-
tachment of Santiago veterans from the
Third infantry on the mainland opposite
Bear island, through heavy surf.
There was no hostile demonstration and
no Indians in sight. The bush is being
secured in an attemgt to find them. but
they appear to have retreated in the dl-
rection of Cass Lake.
The authorities think the Indians
| will make their stand at Little Boy
| lake, 80 miles east of Leech lake,
where conditions favor them. Several
armed bands of Indians have been seen,
apparently making for rendezvous.
| The settlers are terror stricken, but
General Bacon says every precaution
has been taken for their safety.
A heavy gale is blowing and the air
is full of snow, making operations on
the lake difficult. If it develops that
the Indians have returned to Little Boy
lake it is likely the forces will be
brought back here and taken by train
to Lathrop and thence marched cross
country.
1t is possible that the soldiers from
the Fourteenth Minnesota volunteers at
Duluth will be sent to protect the gov
ernment dam at Winnebogoshish
There are some apprehensions here of ;
general Chippewa uprising. The vari
vicinity have about 900 fighting mel
and could make much trouble if the,
joined the Pillagers.
ST. PAUL, Mimi, Oct. 5.-The Pionee
Press extra has the following specia
from Walker, Mimi, today: The pres
ent intention is to move the troops tt
Bear island this morning. Genera
Bacon, Marshal O'Connor and his de
puties and so soldiers expect to leav'
Walker at o'clock so as to arrive a
Bear island before daylight. This plal
will be carried out unless the wind AM
weather prevent. At 3o'clock the vim
is high and the lake very rough, but
is hoped that the wind will go down s.
as to allow the departure.

LIVES LOST BY FIRE.

RICE LAKE, Wis, Oct. 1.-Relief
parties are now out through the burned
districts south and west of this city.
The loss of life from the disastrous for
est fires cannot now be estimated, but
it will be great. The work of getting
to the burned districts is slow, as all
the bridges are down Over 100 per-
sons are missing.
Many dead bodies have been found,
and they are burned beyond rccogni-
tion The remains of man named
Nelson were found this forenoon at the
bottom of well, where he hadigone to
escape the fire. At another place a
woman and two children were found in
we'll. The woman was so badly
burned that she will die.
At another place where man had
been blowing in a field his charred re
mains and the carcasses of his horses Were
found today. All the cattle, horses and
other stock in a large district have been
burned to death.

Fire Threatens Colorado Towns.

DENVER, Oct. 1.-The forest fires on
the west slope of the Rockies continue
to spread and only heavy rain can
stop them. In the vicinity of Steam
boat Springs there has been rainfall
which checked the fires there, but they
are still smouldering and will start into
life again unless there shall soon be
more rain or snow. Governor Adams
said today: 81 think the only thing
that will put stop to the fires is a good
heavy rain There is but little use in
trying to put out the fires by the usual
means as the fire is not continuous.
From what 1 can learn it must be in
probably so places. In my opinion the
fires are due wholly to accident. Camp
ers build fire, spark blows into the
underbrush which is very dry, and fire
is the result. 1t is so easy to start a for
est fire Just now that it is almost impos-
sible to ascertain the origin of it. Sparks
from railroad engines may have caused
some fires !"
