 Now Quiet.

5oldfield, New, Dec. S.-Captain Sage of the Consolidated Mines Company's detective patrol, reported last night that he had seized 100 rifles that had been hidden presumably by union min CTS within a short distance of Goldfeld. arms and ammunition which the min CTS are represented to have collected during the last few days.
 Captain William Cox, the representa- tive of Governor Sparks in GoldfeId. stated this evening that he had infor- nation from the Mine Owners Asso- citation that an attempt will be made during the week to reopen the mines here with non-union men. This infor- nation has been communicated to the Governor and is in the hands of Colo mel Alfred Reynolds. commanding the Federal troops now encamped in this city.
 There are nine companies of troops here, the second detachment from Monterey having gone into permanent camp on Combination Hill within 300 yards of the mill of the Goldfield Con- soIidated Company. The first detach- ment which came from San Francisco, remains in the camp established in the north western part of the-town, mile and a half from the nearest mine.
 Colonel Reynolds, commanding all Of the troops nere, IS QuartereQ III q tant in the first camp and will remain there. He refuses to say whether he will detail soldiers to patrol the mines when the attempt Is made to reopen. but merely states that the troops are here to preserve, order and that they are prepared to handle the situation.
 Sheriff Ingalls,. of Esmeralda County. in which Goldfeld is located. has gone away to some distant mines and the sherifrs office in the hands of under Sheriff Bert Knight. who asserts that hn is amply able to handle any crisis thnt may arise from the attempt to re- open the mines.
 He has sworn in dozen deputies. He characterizes the statements made by the mine owners that the union men are arming themselves and preparing to make trouble. as false, and says that in his belief there will be nc effort made to prevent the mine owners from working the mines with whatever men they may employ.
 A telegram which the sheriff sent to Governor Sparks protesting against the presence of Federal troops In Goldheld. remains unanswered.
