iinville, IH.-One Woman Killed aud
Twenty Men Hurt.

Union City, a settlement built by the
miners union on land adjoining the
Brush mines, near Gainesville, ILL.,, was
set on fire by the non-union negroes in
retaliation for the murder of Mrs. Carr,
killed at Fredonia by strikers. The
town will be a total loss.
A railway coach filled with negroes
from Pana, H., and bound for the
Brush mines, near Carterville, reached
Fredonia, little station eleven lniles
west of Marion, H., the morning of
June 80. Here a number of strikers
stopped the train and ordered Conduc-
tor William Brown to put the negroes
off. He refused, and the mob then
fired into the coach where the negroes
were, killing one woman and injuring
about twenty men. The conductor told
the negroes to lie down in the ear after
the first volley had been fired, and no
further damage was done.
About 100 yards east of Fredonia a
second squad of strikers surrounded
the car as the train passed, but did no
damage. The negroes were finally
landed at the mines.

WILL ENLIST VOLUNTEERS.
Policy Is Definitely Decided On at
Washington.
OTIS MUST HAVE MORE MEN.
The Regular Army Is Up to Its Full
Authorized Strength, and the New
Regiments VIII BE Gathered Together
Under IA Special Act of Congress.

1t has been definitely decided to be-
gin the enlistments for the volunteer
service under the act of the last con-
gress. AS the regular army is up to
its full authorized strength, the ad-
ditional soldiers needed must be OBJ
tanned under that section of congress
authorizing the enlistment of yolun-
teers.
Recruiting officers have been In
structed to prepare to enlist volun-
teers. The present indications are that
about 10000 men will be wanted.
Gen. Corbin said the enlistments
would be for three years, although the
law for the creation of the provisional
army of $4,000 in excess OF the regular
army of $1,000 provides only for such
a force until 1901. Arrangements are
to be made at once for increasing the
transportation necessary to get these
additional troops to the Philippines.

In an interview at Albany, N. Y,
Gov. Roosevelt declared that he was
