They ATTACK A TRAIN.
Strikers in Alabama in Battle With
Deputy Sheriffs.

Birmingham, Ala. July 1S.-Robert
Gardner, a deputy marshal. was
fatally wounded and at least a dozen
miners were more or less seriously
train bearing strikebreakers to take
the places of striking union miners at
Jefferson, near here. The train was
in charge of thirteen deputies and was
en- route to Adamsville. 1t is said the
union miners attempted to induce the
strikebreakers to leave the train and
threatened to kill them if they went
to work Governor Conner has or
dered a company of cavalry from
Montgomery to the scene and troops
already on the ground are under arms
and will patrol the district.
Deputy Gardner. mortally wounded.
was brought to Birmingham. Deputy
George Smith, accompanying him,
estimated that no less than one thou
sand shots were fired by both sides
in the attack at Jefferson.
According to Smith. the engage
ment was opened when train bear
ing fifty strikebreakers attempted to
leave jefferson for Adamsville. Prior
to this a number of union miners had
made overtures to the striaebreakers
to join their ranks. threatening at the
same time to kill them in case they
attempted to work in the mines OF
the operators. In this emergency
train run out of Jefferson under fire
If necessary. An open switch, how
ever brought the engine to stop
and in this predicament the deputies
and strikebreakers were fired upon.
Bullets riddled the train and that
is due to the fact that they fell to
the floor and remained there. The
deputies returned the fire and they
declare at least a dozen miners were
either killed or seriously wounded. At
this juncture Gardner fell MORALLY
wounded.
The engagement was brought to a
close when the switch having been
closed the train was enabled to make
Roadway.
There was a sharp brush at Adams
vile, three strike sympathizers being
wounded and thirteen arrested.
The union miners are taking the
position that they are being mis-
treated by the deputy sheriffs. There
are about 500 of these officers scat
teed through the mining territory. and
union leaders have implored Sheriff
cruelties, as they claim, of the
deputies.
William FARLEY, member of the ma
tional committee of the union, ex-
pressed delight when he learned that
Governor Conner had called out
troops.
A report was received at the
sheriff's office that a battle had taken
place at Blossburg and that numer-
Gus men had been killed or wounded.
State troops will soon be en- route to
this place and if the guards, as is re-
ported, are In distress, they will soon
be relieved.
The news of the strike has been
greatly exaggerated. A number of
minor offenses have been reported in
the district. The home of William
Stafford, a negro. was dynamited at
Pratt City and partially wrecked.
At Mary Lee, report just received
by the sheriff. says that two negro
houses were blown up and one of the
inmates seriously injured.
From Republic comes a report to
the effect that three negroes were
taken from their beds stripped of
their clothing and cruelty beaten by a
body Of men.

Evans vile Team.

Word has been received in Topeka
of the release of Spencer Arthur Abb
bolt by the Evansville team of the
Central league. Abbott hasn't been
getting away very good with the stick,
hence his release. In a letter to To-
peka friends a few days ago he stated
that he would finish the season with
the Topeka team, as the season in the
Central league closed three weeks be-
fore the local season. He may join
the locals here next week, although
nothing definite is known in that re-
gard.
The following is the story of his re-
lease as printed in the Evansville
Courier under a Wheeling date line:
Manager Knoll tonight released
Spencer Abbott, first baseman, and
signed Alva Spangler, late first sacker
Off the Stogies, whose release was re-
Gently purchased from Wheeling.
Abbott, who was drafted from the

record looked like the real thing, will
likely return to the west His fielding
