incendarism had occurred in the city, and a large fire was attributed to such an origin. Sentinels on duty were frequently stoned The miners strike was still un- settled, and renewed collisions were prob- able from efforts to put new men at work. It Twas, therefore necessary to retain a strong body of trops in the county until normal conditions were restored, which was hastened by the action of the citizens of Birmingham in organizing and arming companies to support the civil authorities when the troops were removed The strength of the command was diminished as fast as improvement in the situation permitted, until the mining strike was settled. On August 14 the troops were re- moved after a service in which large numbers of them had been on duty for period of 73 days. The railroad com panies made no charge for the transpor- tation of troops during the railroad strike The expense for transportation, subsis- tence and pay of the troops during the period for which they were ordered into active service, amounted to S5,S 30, which. in view of the number of troops, the distances over which they were trans ported and the length of service, was light and reflects great credit upon the staff departments, the burden of whose labor fell mainly on Col.

 "Thus ended the most formidable and threatening commotion in the history Of our state in times of peace. Its lessons will not be unheeded. The time Is dis tant when lawless combinations, no mat ter what their strength, will again chal- lence the supremacy of the laws by force or forget the deep attachment of the masses for the blessings of liberty regu- lated by law, which caused thousands of our citizens, at the first sign of danger, to volunteer for the defense of the state.
 "Our people have been taught as never before in this generation the force of the truth declared by the fathers that well regulated militia is necessary to the se- curity of free state The comparative ease with which the disorder was con- fined to narrow limits and finally subdued, when entrusted with the struggle under like conditions elsewhere. which brought forth so much of anarchy and terror, gives to the world assurance that the blessings of peace and enlightened gov ernment are nowhere more highly prlzeo, or peter secured against the domination of mobs than in our midst.

:th the sheriff. Anxious to avoid the use of troops, and desiring to bring to the aid of the civil auth horities the act i've cooperation of the strikers, as well as to place responsibility upon th om, as far as possible. for the main tenance of order, I had conference next day with the executive board of tke United Miners of Alabama, which, as the representative head of the min CTS, was charged with the conduct of the strike. After reviewing the laws Tearing upon the situation and explain ing to the committee that the authori- ties were not charged with any func- tions concerning the strike, as such, and, so long as the peace was pre- served, could do nothing that could possibly affect 1t, except to use their good offices, if practicable, to bring about a satisfactory adjustment, I inn pressed upon the members the conse- quences which would result from vio- lence and the obligation which rested upon them to give active aid and moral support to the authorities. The com mittee promised to do all in its power; but admitted there were a number of miners wl:on 1t could not control and for whom 1t ould not answer. What ever the committeets good intentions, [ soon learned that its influence was a very slight barrier to acts of violence upon the part of the strikers.
 Situation Grew Steadily Worse.
 During the next 30 days the situa
 ton grew steadily worse. Early in May large mob mainly of striking miners from Jefferson county, invaded Horse Creek, in Walker county, in the 1.1 T, -lrc mine with dynamite and set fire to an
 other, and then dispersed so quickly
 that pursuit was not pract cticable. Short ly afterwal ds, at Pratt mines, in the vicinity of which the state convicts are confined strikers murdered a miner named Clover, who refused to quit work, and ati iempted to assassinate an- : other, named Holman, for the same req son. The presence of the sheriff with a strong posse to protect Holman from mob violence while on a preliminary trial for a misdemaenor at Pratt City, | excited so much hostility on the part ! of tl.c strikers that a bloody riot was | barely aVerted by the prudence and l firmpess of the sheriff. In the vicinity l of Pratt mines armed strikers secretly
 met for the purpose of releasing the
 convicts by force, and abandoned their l contemplated attack solely because i their leader, failing in courage, surren- 1 dered to the sheriff and information had reached them that the local troops had l been ordered to their armories.
 Armed bodies of miners began to move over the country in the night l and exchange of shots with the guards 1 and the explosion of dynamite and l other demonstrations to terrorize op-
 orators and miners were not infre- 1 cuent

Renewed vio;ence of Miners.

"On the 16th of July all apprehension of danger from this strike having passed, and the situation being reported as peace full in the mining district, all the troops were relieved from duty and ordered home. About o'clock in the evening. ana within two hours after the last of the troops had left information was received at Birmingham, where I still remained, that mob of several hundred armed strikers were murdering negroes and guards at slope No. 3, near Pratt City, about eight miles distant from Birming- ham. Tn the midst of the turmoil In which the city was thrown by this news, several attempts were made to set ire 10 cars and destroy other property there. This violent outbreak in so short time after the departure of the troops. and evi- dently planned with reference to IT, anu followed by simultaneous efforts at in- cendiarism in the city. indicated not only the frenzy and madness which the pres ence of troops had kept in check, bur general combination the part of the vicious elements to engage in simuitan. cons acts of violence in different parts or tbe county.
