COAL NINE RIOTS.
Serious Trouble Anticipated Between
Union and NOn-Unian Miner.

Serious Trouble Anticipated Between
union and NOn-Union Miners.
evansville, Ind, July 26--Rioting pre-
vailed at two OF the local coal mines tn.
day. AS the coored non union miners
employed at the First avenue mlne came
from work they were met by a crowd of
small boys who carried tin horns and tin
cans. They followed the miners for about
block and kept up a continual Yell
finally the negroes turned on the boys
and pulled their pistols. They fired sew
erai shots, but no one was hurt. The
boys jumped behind trees and telephone
poles for protection. Soon there were
several hundred people on the scene and
many OF them carried Winchesters The
poilce dispersed the crowds with diff
Guilty.
Nearly 1000 people gathered at the John
1ngie mine and when the negro miners
stopped work they were surrounded by
strikers and sympathizers. Both union
and non union men carried arms and il
was impossible for the officers to dsarm
them. The wife of one of the strikers
made an attack on John Ingle, the owner
or the mine, and struck him over the head
with an empty powder can. The nom
union miners rushed through the line and
were brought to the city on a tug boat
The men paraded the streets with their
arms. and the police made no effort to
stop them. Mayor Aiken issued proc
lamatlon tonight, forbidding the miners to
parade the streets. The situation is beyond
the control of the local officers. The negro
miners at the First avenue mine say they
will take Winchesters with them as they
go to work In the morning.

TEXANS RETURN FROM MANILA
INTIMATE THAT SOLDIERS MAIL Is
TAMPERED WITH.
Volunteers Have Been Given the
Worst End of 1t by Those
I'm Charge.

San Antonio, Texas, July 26.--San An
tonic welcomed home with public ova-
ton three discharged soldiers of the
Eighteenth regular United States infantry
The three men were Emil Riley, w. F.
Siegler and w, r, Burrier, sons OF
wealthy citizens Of Fredericksburg, Texas,
who Joined the regulars for active service
in the Philippines in preference to gar
rison duty with the volunteers in Cuba
The three men are of excellent character
and have a good education. They have
made careful observations of affairs while
in the campaign and are bitter against the
military commander of the islands.
THE half has not been told.' said w.
r. Burrler. II know it as fact that there
were at one time as many as 5000 men in
the hospitals at Manila and Io!lo.
While feel that / did not get all of
my mail, would not charge that our mail
was Withheld from US or that mail home
has been tempered with. II was common
talk in camp. however, that our mail was
being tempered with will know that.
however, as soon as reach home.
"Otis Is the most thoroughly disliked
man in Manila. The volunteers and reg
uars alike have no love FOR him. Lawton.
Wheaton and Macarthur are the officers
who are looked up to by the men on the
island.
1.-THE worst feature of the whole thing,
as 1t appeared to us, was the brutal treat
ment of the volunteer regiments. We reg
ulars were well treated and in no instance
overworked, while the Nebraska and Kan
sas troops were made TO bear the brunt OF
almost every action. The hospital figures
will bear out this charge. Our regiment
for instance has had only two men killed
and twenty incapitated for future service
In all the time that we have been on the
islands, while In the Nebraska regiment
there are about twenty able bodied and ut
men TO a company.
"a remark that has filled the rank and
file with disgust was the statement ac-
credited to one OF the surgeons mat IT
was whole lot cheaper TO plant hfty SOL
ders in the Philippines than TO SEND one
invalid home on transport"
