Carterville there might have been seri-
Gus trouble, though he complained that

"a hours preceding the arrival Of the

and accompanied to Carterville. Mr..
Ryan asked the acting governor to see
II conference could not be arranged
between Receiver Bosworth, of the st.
Louis and Big Muddy Coal company,
and miners, officials at Carterville,
with view of arbitrating. Acting |
Governor Warder said that he would
be pleased TO have the trouble settled
by arbitration, and said he would see
Judge Allen and have him endeavor to
induce the parties to come together
with view of arbitration, the mines
being under the receivership OF the
federal court. Col. Culver, OF the Fifth
infantry, Illinois national guard, who
went to Carterville as the personal
representative OF Acting Governor

at present, 1t was his belief that II
the troops had not been sent there,
Manager Brush, OF the st. Louis and
Big Muddy company's mine, and the
men under him would have suffered
badly at the hands of the strikers.

called on the acting governor and asked
him to keep the troops at Carterville
and to cooperate with the federal au-
thorites until the deputy marshals sent
there can arrest the ringleaders OF the
strikers, for whom warrants were is
sued yesterday afternoon, and for
which deputy marshals are on their
& way TO Carterville to serve. Acting
Governor Warder said he would lend
the federal authorities all the aid In his
power, but II Is believed that as soon
