~. Louis Transit Go. Makes Distinct
Progress in OncraIing Its Lines.

power house of the Transit Co. at
Broadway and Gasconade street,
Wade Sargent, non-union man. was
shot in the right leg. His condition
is serious and amputation will have
to be reSorted to- Sarpent's home is
in Medina, Q. He came here two
weeks ago from Cleveland.
st. Louis, June 6.-The strike situ-
alton has assumed such serious
phase that yesterday 80 prominent
citizens united in telegram TO Gov.
Stephens, asking him to call out the
militia for the protection of life and
property. Negotiations between the
strikers and the Transit Co.. looking
to a settlement of the strike. are off
for the present. From rioting
standpoint the day was comparatively
meventful. Assaults on passengers
continued.
St. Louis. June S.-Cars were run
on one line of the st. Louis Transit
system last night for the first time
since the strike was begun. The line
selected to make the test is known as
the Lindell division and is about four
miles long. Every car carried a po-
lice guard and in addition the thor
oughfares along the route were pa
troIled by police officers and compa-
nics of the shcrif's posse, the latter
armed with shotguns.
The number of deputy sheriifs has
grown to 1000. The work of swear
ing in Deputies continues. Twenty
five sticks of dynamite were unearth-
ed by the police yesterday. Five
sticks were found buried under the
Easton avenue car tracks al EastOn
and Nandcventcr avenues and 20 addi-
tional sticks were found in an aban-
doned shed at Broadway and GascOn-
ade street, in the neighborhood of a
power house. The dynamite found
on the Easton avenue tracks had been
made into a bomb and placed under
the rail. Had a car passed over it at
the time it probably would have been
destroyed.
Gov. Stephens at jefferson City has
received many letters from st. Louis
threatening him if he does not call
out the militia to suppress the riots.
and others threatening him if he
does call out the militia. Yesterday
he received a note reading: IF You
do not call out the state militia in a
few days YOU will be shot.
Gov. Stephens says he has not had
the support of the press and citizens
of St. Louis in his efforts to preserve
order and that these letters are the
natural result.
