MORE FIGHTING.

Tonnossee Miners Renqw Thslr Attaok at Oliver Springs.

THIS TIME THEY ARE SUCCESSFUL.

Ordered Out.

riGHTINO AT COAL CI1KKK. Know i.i.e, Tenn., Aug. 18.—The telegraph wires to Coal Creek hnve been cut. It reported that a battle is raging between troops and minera. Cannonading oiin be heard in the distance. The streets here are crowded with a howling mob and tho greatest excitement prevails. Five newspaper correspondents who went to Coal Creek have been captured by miners and are held prisoners.

Troops All Out.

Gov. ltuchannn has ^ust ordered out all tho troops in the state, nearly 1,000 men nnd two artillery batteries. He has also ordered the sheriffs of Davidson, Shelby, Knox and Hamilton counties to summon 1,000 men from oach tounty. Tho oounties of Marion, Anderson and Uoane are to furnish 500 eauh. The troops are to be taken to east Tennessee. The posses are 'to go on special trains.

SoldlcrH Drtvou Itnck.

A late telegram says that Maj Chandler with the Knoxville soldiers started to Coal Creek, but was driven back by the miners. The soldiers were run for miles, a cross fire being kept up nil the time, and one miner was wounded.

Cupturt'ri a Truln.

A dispatch from Coal Creek says that 600 miners oaptured a tiain just before midnight at .lellico. The engineer re fused to pull it out, but the close proximity to his head of a dangerous looking Winchester made him obey. They ran at the rate of 50 miles an hour through tunnels and over ridges to Coal Creek, having just arrived at the time this dispatch was sent.

The Governor Very Sick.

A dispatch from Chattanooga says Gov. Ituchnnan's physician declares that he is dangerously ill and may die. lie is utterly prostrated and a physical wreck. In the event of death com in and of the situation devolves upon the speaker of the liouso, \\. C. DUlnukes, a man of nerve and pluck. (Milo Sprln^K Kails.

Knox villi:, Tenn., Aug. is. One more branch prison is now a thing of the past, and only heaps of ashes mark the place which at 7 o'clock was a scene of greatest activity. The expected happened and Oliver Springs stockade hus fallen more through tho cowardice of its garrison and Chattanooga soldiers than anything else. It was ii:".0 o'clock Wednesday morning when three heavily laden trains rolled into Oliver Springs. Their passengers were miners, the majority of whom hail come from Kentucky to aid the Tennesseeatis in their tight for liberty, as they term it. The trains had been taken possession of at the points of Winchesters at Jellico and had been run to suit the miners. They crossed the mountains at the rate of 40 miles an hour. Pell-mell Into Oliver they came, 700 strong, swelling the number of miners there to fully l,r00. Stragglers from Oakdale and other neighboring points had arrived at 6 o'clock to form an army of fully 2,000 men.

At 11 o'clock they formed in line and began their march to the stocluide, 4 miles distant. Sergt. Lee Huddles ton had started from the stockade for Oliver's to wire for reinforcements and hearing the miners approaching, keeping perfect, step, at once supposed them to be the "Valiant Chattanooga troops, who were so bravely coming to their rescue." Hut not so. The (Hiuttanoogn troops had remained at Harriman, 1" miles away, while a train stood ready to move them at a moment's notice.

Surrender Demanded.

The miners took lluddleston with tlicin, and when within a mile of the stockade all halted. A committee, of which the miners' leader, Hatmakcr, a Kentuekian, was the spokesman, advanced upon the stockade. lie stated the number of hit, forces and asked the garrison to surrender. Dr. Shelton. who resides at Oliver's and is the regular physician of the lessee at tills point, also urged surrender, and after being promised protect ion ("apt. Karris, of the guards, agreed to surrender. Three of his guards refused, and likewise did Maj. Chandler, of the militia, refii.se to turu over his men. but after deliberation decided to do so. Out marched the soldiers, followed by the convicts aud their guards. Down Hig mountain they tramped for fully a mile without seeing a .miner, but after that the}- came upon them as thick as Itecs. First the soldiers wore grabbed and robbed of guns, money aud everything aud they were told to leave in a hurry. The guards were not molested, except in two or three instance*, when their guns were taken from vhein. Four of the 100 convicts oseapeil aud one guard, who was ubont to shoot one, found an ugly pistol poked into his face. Tho escaped convicts were Frank Scott. George Kvnns, John Mc Kirov and Charles Nlcholls. f.onded Into Cam.

The convicts were marched down to the railroad track within a mile of Oliver's, where the captured trains were awaiting them. Into four oars were loaded tho convicts und the guards, while the other two trains were filled with miners. The trains proceeded to Clinton. The one containing the couviotH was sido-traeked, the other returning to Coal Creek and Jel llco and carrying miners gloating over their victory.

Out in the hot, broiling sun were the conviota kept until afternoon. They arrived In this city about a o'clock gnH wofo immediately taken to the

county jail, whore they were fed and again started on their way to Nashville at 7 o'clock. They ate ravenously, not having had anything to eat since Tuesday at dinner time. Their breakfast had been prepared but tho stockade was evacuated beforo they had a chunce to get even so much as a bite. A few miners had remained in the vicinity of the stockade and the torches were soon applied to it and the three block houses which had been built for protection. The flames soon did their work.

At tho Merry of UtoterH.

The Chattanooga contingent did not reach the scene of action at all, although three trains gave ample, opportunity. They numbered sixty-five men and lay all day inactivo at Ilarriman. 18 miles from Oliver Springs. It is impossible now to reinforce Capt. Anderson at Coal Creek, and tho whole bruut of the battle will fall on Capt. Anderson and his command of 180 men. They have commanding position on the top of the mountain overlooking the stockade, are heavily armed, and should give a good account of themselves. At last advices the sixty-five men who went from this city were still nt Ilarriman nwaiting orders. Without other support it would bo folly for them to attempt to move across the hostile territory. They can only be taken to Coal Creek, the probable scene of the next outbreak, by rail and a* the road is practienlly in control of the mob of miners and the wires along It cut it Is not likely tliey cau move very rapidly, if at all, by this route.

May He a ll!([ Rebellion.

All 9orts of rumors are current as to tho number of miners who are ready attack, or prepared for some new form ot lawlessness. Various estimates are made of the number of these lawbreakers, some of the estimates running up into the thousands, runl general opinion prevails that "flic woods aro full of 'ein." The number may be greatly exaggerated but they doubtless have a reserve force which will number fully 20,000 resolute men, inured to hardship and fatigue, many of them veterans of the late war, and should they break out into open rebellion and defy the troops toquellthedisturbane.es it will provi it very difficult body of men to handle, familiar ua they are with all tho mountain retreats, passes and by-paths.

The full force of the state militia asnow enlisted doesn5t exceed more thai 2,000—possibly less than 1,500, and they cannot all be brought together inside of week. Iu the meantime if the miners are as strong aud determined as reported they will have accomplished their ends before they can l»e met by any sufficient force.

I-'vdeml Aid Not Needed.

Washington, Aug. 18.—Gen. Grant, who is acting as secretary of war. said that the war department had no infor •nation whatever regarding the labor troubles in New York ana Tennessee beyoud what is furnished by the press dispatches, and that he had no reason to apprehend a call for federal inter fcrenee in either case.

FIVE CHILDREN CREMATED.

While X.ucked in ri House They Are Itnriied to Death. Giuffin,-Ga., Aug. 18.—Five children were burned to death here Tuesday night. It is the same old story of lock lug them in the house and going off and leaving them, a mysterious kindling of tho fire' and death. The house burned wafiwthat of Nathnn"' Ellis, and five children the youngest 4 years old. the oldest 12, lost their lives In the flamtes before' help could reach them. ElHs and hla vrlfe,1 with hl^ sLster. Mrs. llitlrer had'gone to church, leaving twe children "of a dead sister anil Ellis' and tliTeo of the: Baker woman's' children lockcd fn the' building until their return. The house wiis discovered on Are about 6 o'clock, but the flames had gained suoh headway beforo anyone arrived that It wan impossible,to render the unfortunate occupants any assistance, Two of the children wenseen to roll in their agony through the burning floor to the hotbed of embers below, where their little bodies writhed in agony for only a few minutes. when death relieved them of their suffering. How the fire originated is mystery, asno fire had been in the house since the noon meal was cooked. It is thought that tho house was purposely sot on fire.

owns the world's trotting record, and it will doubtless be many years before the Washington Park club will be called upon to give up the horshoe emblen ati1 of the victory achieved upon its aesconrse Wednesday. It was the third day of the trotting meeting, and the announcement that Hmld Doble would drive Nancy Hanks against her record of 2:09 brought fully 7,000 people to the grounds. At ft o'clock the track was cleared and put in shape for the great event. It could searel.v have been in better condition, as the result of the trial proved. A few moments later the famous mare appeared harnessed to a pneumatic-tired sulky and driven by Doble. After a little warming up she was sent for the distance, a running horse belonging to Adam Forepaugh keeping her company and running but a few feet behind her. Doble kept her right down to her work all the way, and she never flinched, swayed, broke, or in the least gave up the task before her.

Every W'utoh Was Oill.

It is probable that every watch on the. grounds was in the hands of its owner, anil the time at the four points was carefully noted. Doble did not onco touch her with the whip, but kept ft moving backward and forward over her bach. The excitement was intense In the grand stand, but scarcely sound was made. One or two persons arose to their feet as the famous trotter was rounding the last turn, and then the order was given for everybody to stand up. This was done in order to keep tho crowd from jumping up when the finish was being made and causing the horse to break. At last the mile was finished aud Unofficial timers coinpnred watches.

A Mile in SS:07 1-4.

Ono of the judges then announced the time as 2:07and lie Just had lime to add that the world's record was broken when the crowd went wild. Cheer after cheer was given, and the masculine portion of the audience crowded around the judges' stand. Hats. canes and umbrellas were thrown into the air, and it looked as if the crowd would tear the fence down nnd carry the horse, sulky nnd driver away on its slioulder6. Those who were fortunate enough to be on the Inside of the fence surrounded Mr. Doble and shook bis hand until his arm must have ached. It was some seconds before he wasablc to dismount, nnd when he did lie started on a walk toward the stables behind the horse which he had just driven. Two gentlemen followed him and succeeded in persuading him to return and go \ip into the judges' stand. it was then announced that Nancy Hanks was named after the mother of the greatest man that ever lived—Abraham Lincoln.

After this threo cheers were proposed and, given for "Nancy Hanks," "the greatest driver that ever lived" and the "Washington park race course."

Dohle Muheti a Speech.

Mr. Doble tried to get away, but the orowd would not let him go without saying something. The famous driver blushed like a maiden. He could drivo horses, but he could not make a speech lust at that time, so he thanked tne audience for its appreciation of hi.efforts and retired.

The official time was: For the first quarter. :ni^ half mile, 1:0"V, threequarters, l::ii» «i': mile, 2:07 The last quarter was trotted In lliMit Them All.

Nancy's time not only beats that of Maud S, but also Sunoi's record for a mile, which IS a fraction of a second faster than that of Maud S. It Is not. however, regarded as strictly the record for the distance, owing to the fact that it was trotted over a kite-shaped track, which is acknowledged to !e faster than the regulation track.

Build Doble Is confident that there is better than 2:07^ In the mare and so expressed himself lifter Wi-due.sday's trial. Doble rode a (12 pound pneu-matic-tired sulky and carried the regulation weight

Nancy Hanks is 0 years old. She is by llaypy Medium, dam by Director, 'out of an Edward Forrest mare. She Was bred by Hart Uoswell at Lexington, Ky., and'was sold to her present owner for S4.\000. She made her record of 2:00 at llichmond. Intl., in 1.S0I.

'I hat a strike atnontf tho locomotive firemen is imminent there is no doubt. The firemen are known to bo in hearty sympathy with the switch men. Should they strike it would have the immediate effect to tie up any line on which the .strike was ordered.
