held that no offence was stated In the
warrant. there being no allegation there
In OF force or intimidation. oct only per-
suasion. The court furthr neld that
there could be no conspiracy Tor an UNI
lawful purpose unless unlawful means
were used. and. none Of these things ap-
pearing IN the warrant. the same was
quashed, and the defendant discharged.
INJUNCTION PROCEEDINGS.
This morning a bill asking an injunction
was presented by the Southwest Virginia
Improvement Company 20 Hon. X. 9.
Jackson. the Circuit Judge In substance
II alleged that a coal company in Missouri
and one I'm the Indian Territory. through
their agents manning them. were enter
ing and trespassing upon the premises OF
complainant. and cnticing and persuading
the employees of the said company who
We're under contract with the said com
pany to quit their employment: that the
said corporations and agents We're nom
residents OF this state. and had no prop
erty within the jurisdiction Of the court
which, could be reached by an action ut
law; that the parties so interfering and
asked TO be enjoned are insolvent; that
the injury sought TO be inflicted was ir-
remejiable. and that suit at law would
be unavailing. The complainants asked
that an Injunction be ISSUED, feSIdlnlHb
the defendants therein mentioned from
interfering with the laborers OF the said
company.
II was also alleged that transportation
would be furnished. and many of the en-
ployees taken from the state by the SAID
agents on Saturday of This week.
THE MATTER POSTPONED.
The defendants appeared by counsel.
and asked that notice be given. and a
time fixed for the hearing Of the cause.
which was resisted by complainant
through its counsel
After arguments the court minated
that it would grant a temporary injunc-
ton against the said agents from inter-
fering with the laborers now in tho en-
ployment OF the complainant. but could
not undertake TO restrain transportation
being furnished to employees Of the said
complainant who had already severed
their connection with the said company.
1t was understood that on next Tuesday
the case will be fully heard and dcci-
sion reached as to whether the injunction
shall be dissolved or made permanent.
The question IS exciting much interest
here as one Of first impression in our
court.
Similar injunctions have been granted
by Judge Sanders, of the Circuit Court I'm
West Virginia. but no final action has
been had thereon.

Frank 4. Slnvin. Former Pugilist, Brings
Out SEC, 900 OF the Total.

SEATTLE Wash, June 17.-Thirteen days from
Dawson to Seattle was the time made by 10
miners who brought out moro than 5000 900
in gold dust and as much more represented by
drafts. They arrived to-day Most Of this gold
was taken from bench diggings. where It has
been possible to secure water earlier than in
the gulches. and where thawing the ground is
easier. These men represent every part of the
United States. and are the advance guard
of thousands who will come later with evil
dcnces OF hard-earned fortunes.
Frank 7. Slavin. the pugilist. who calls New
York his home, has nice sack OF 500 600
The largest amount brought out by single
person was S35 900. B. Johnson OF Seattle be-
Ing the lucky man. None had less than So 600
The largest estimated out put OF any miners in
the klOndke this season comes from tho
l.ipry ella N. owned by Seattle mon. That will
clean up S5UO.OOO
The miners say that the trip can be made
from Dawson TO Seattle in eight DAYS when all
steamer lines get 70 running in perfect order
They Also say the little sacks brought out hy
them are nothing In mparison to what is to
follow In a steady stream. They report the
health OF the country as good and the people
as prosperous. Mounted police warn the re-
turning miners that tn" country is full OF high
whymen, and tell them not to come out with
much treasure unless well guarded and armed
Some OF the returning miners have had dear
experiences with bunco men on board the
steamer between Skagway and Seattle.
