the growing belief in the Street in the accuracy
OF the report that understanding had been
arrived at between Mr.. Morgan and the Harr-

of the Northern Pacific and that the controversy
over that road would be adjusted in way
satisfactory both to Mr.. Morgan and to the
Union Pacific and the Northwestern roads in
the Burngtons territory; and also to the news
of the improved state of affairs on the London

of his trip TO the State institutions. and at $50
o'clock tonight was at the Executive Mansion
Two thousand armed soldiers are now within
the city limits, more coming. and 2.5Oo are
in readiness to move TO Troy when Governor
Odel so orders The streets are thronged with
excited men, women and children. and the other
wise quiet day terminated in bloodshed. A
dramatic element added TO the days feat
ures by the sudden death of Adjutant-General
Hoffman
AS long the traction company does not at
tempt TO move cars or bring in non-union men
the crowds in the streets remain good natured
except for taunting the soldiers and police, but
the instant an attempt is made TO work the
lines or bring non-union men in the crowd be-
comes frenzied and bloodshed results.
Citizens sabre sashed, non-union men with
broken limbs and bloody faces women and chill
dren trampled under foot. soldiers manned with
flying missiles. and leaders in the crowds beaten
with muskets were some of the results OF the
day.
Mob and militia closed in combat late this
afternoon, but by the accident OF fortune there
were no serious casualties. II was the intro
duction Of more non-union men. 10 take the
places of striking traction employees, that pro-
duced the violence, and IL was only by the skill
and forbearance Of the guardsmen that the
clash was not desperately serious.
Seventy-fve non union men reached the Union
Depot shortly before o'clock. and their de-
livery at the Quail-st. barn, a mile and a half
away was a dash under cavalry escort, with
mob resistance in almost every block. Fren-
zied men in countless numbers swarmed through
the police lines surged around the fast moving
cavalrymen. and fought get at the cowed
non-union men inside the circle OF galloping
horses.
The rays OF the setting sun gave CLINT 10 busy
sabres but the long blades. welded by forbear-
ing hands seldom descended in serious blows.
Several men were cut down by cornered cavalry
men, but the record does not yet show the score
OF q single fatality. In the mad ride through
the streets few OF the -non-unionists escaped the
fying bricks and stones that the angered mobs
hurled at them, but less than a dozen We're
badly hurt The courage of nearly a dozen OF
the non-union men failed them in the opening
squirt through the turbulent crowds. and they
sprang from the wagons that carried them, TO
rningle and be lost in the crowd that demanded
their blood.
MAD RIDE OF THE CAVALRYMEN.
The ride OF the non-union men through the
city was the dramatic spectacle Of the day.
