nnA7.ii., Ind., May 30.—The miners' strike is assuming a very serious attitude and trouble Is imminent. At Rosedale the strikers still have In their possession several cars of coal and declare tlicy will rot surrender them. A United States marshal is in this locality and will attempt to persuade the miners to cease their hostilities and permit trains on all roads to do business unmolested, but it is hardly probable that tho order will be obeyed. Thursday evening the passenger train on the Chicago & Eastern Illinois was stopped by a mob of miners, numbering several hundred men, who demanded to ride free. The conductor refused and the train was held by the mob for'over an hour, when the trainmen induced them to allow theni to move, assuring the strikers they were tampering with the United States mail. Two freights were stopped on the Yandalia nt Kniglitsville and tho trainmen refused to move off the main track, thus blocking the passtnger trains. The miners Cnaily allowed the trains to go on.
The miners say they will not allow coal to lie mined to supply the waterworks or electric light plant with fuel. Should these plants be forced to stop this city will be wholly without flic protection or street lights. Serious trouble is looked fur soon, as the strikers are becoming desperate and are determined to stop the company from hauling coal.
Really to Call Out Militia.
I.MilA.VAI'OMS, Ind., May
SO.—The
governor's office has been expecting a call for militia to go to the raining districts of the state Gov. Matthews said that he would not take any stops until he was called upon to act. lie says that the call for assistance, if it comes, must come through the sheriff of the counties in which the miners are displaying bad temper. lie says that up to this time he has not been consulted by any sheriff and he is Inclined lo believe that the local authorities will be able to deal with the strikers. The governor indicates that should a call come, from the local officers lie would deem it his duty, if circumstances seemed to warrant, to call out the militia. The adjutant general has been expecting a call for armed men at, any time, and the military companies of this city have been ready for several days to move on short notice.
Miners netting Desperate.
Tiiitm: HA
I I
Ind., May
SO.—The
miners in ttiis part of the state are becoming desperate. They aro getting impatient over the delay in settling the strike in Illinois. The peculiar situation in Indiana is that the miners and operators are on the best of terms. There is not a guard at an Indiana mine. The supply of coal in this city is very short, and the street "car company and electric light works are preparing to use oil for fuel.
Think tile Worst
IH
Over.
LA SAI.I.E, 111.. May 30.—There is a feeling here that the. worst of the strike is over and a resumption of mining will soon follow. The citizens held another meeting Tuesday, and a large port ion of those present were miners. A proposition of the miners that one of their number watch at each siiaft to see that nothing irregular was done was favorably considered. The meeting adjourned until to-day. when it is expected that arrangements will bo completed so that the militia may be safely withdrawn. ^ulet nt Mhionk.
MI.NOXK, 111., May 80.—Quiet reigns at Minonk. The miners are disappointed that they were unable to prevent the shipment of coal, but they have decided not to try to interfere further with the movement of coal. The last company from Peoria has returned home. Sheriff Tool has discharged his deputies).
Strikers in Control.
DANV1LI.K, Ml., MNYTTO.—Tne
sinners
have complete control of the situation here and will not permit a pound of coal to be mined. Mr. Dukes, proprietor of the Hotel Tilton. being nearly out of coal, borrowed a half a wagon load from a neighbor. The strikers will not permit him to take it to his hotel.
Will Uo Preparod In Future.-': CKNTKAI.IA. 111., May HO.—A mass
meeting was held at the opera house Tuesday eveninjr and a resolution was passed demanding that 100 citizens be sworn in as special police to go on duty at the call of tho mayor when an emergency shall arise. No more visiting mobs of strikers will be allowed to invade this city. Tho Big Four mine will begin operations on Friday next. The property will be guarded, and the miners who go to work will bo protected from tnob violence, not only on their way to and from work, but while In their homes.

80.—The
strike
situation at Muchakinook mines, near Oskaloosa, is growing serious. Sheriff Price. of Mahaska county, wired Gov. Jackson Tuesday morning that the situation at that point was alarming. He would call on all local forces available and endeavor to keep the riot down. Armed miners, he says, are on the grounds, and it is feared great loss to life, and property will oocur. He asks the governor to hold the national guard readv to respond at a moment's notice.
Work has been resumed at all the camps njar Oskaloosa except Beacon, 1US cars being loaded daily. Injunctions have been served on about *~00 of tho strike leaders to restrain them from

POMEROV, O.,
May 80.—The delega
tion of miners that went down the river by steamboat, SOO strong, to induce the miners at Spillman, W. Va., to ceaso work came back Tuesday night with flying banners and a band playing. They accomplished their mission without an unkind word on either side. Eighty-threo men joined the strikers. This clears every mine in the. I'omeroy bend without an act of violence. Every steamboat coaling station between here and Cincinnati is without fuel.
Fleeing from Cripple Creek. CRII'PI.K CRKRK, Col., May 30.—Tho
situation hero Is unchanged. The idea of arbitration has been abandoned by everybody and business is practically suspended throughout the district. As many people as can possibly do so aro moving away. The deputies are still encamped at Divide, 5 miles away. where recruits are constantly arriving. A few miner* have come in to help out the strikers, who are located on Hull hill. 5 miles from this town. It is the genoral opinion that a battle between the contending forces will take place soon. The strikers now expect to be attacked from three different points and have massed their forces at Hull hill. Two principal approaches have been undermined and large quantities of dynamite placed so that by means of electricity the mines can be exploded from the fort.

peels for a settlement of tho miners' si like look moro favorable now than any time for several weeks. President John MoBrido, who is in llliii' is, telegraphed Secretary Patnek MeRryde that the outlook f-r a settlement in that state :is very good. President Mcltride v. ill remain in Illinois until after the invention of the miners and operais Thursday. The probabilities are it a settlement muy be reached on t'.c basis of sixty cents in Ohio and *.? ty-nine oents in Pennsylvania. A committee is here from the valley collecting subscriptions for the strikers and reports great destitution and suf: firing.
Pittsburgh Operators Weaken.
Pi iTS1H-HUH, Pa., May SO. There were tifty representatives present at tile meeting of tho Pittsburgh coal operators Tuesday, which was called to hear the report of the committee of fifteen which had been appointed to formulate a plan for settlement of the strike. This committee failed to agree on any p'an and asked that it be discharged. The request was granted, and immedii'i.'ly afterward Alexander Dumster t::g:rested that a committee of ten be appointed to take the place of the discharged committee, but with unlimited power to act. The suggestion was a -ted upon without much discussion.
Tho instructions given tho committee denote a general desire on the part of the operators to wind up the strike with all possible haste and on the best terms to lie secured. The committee has full power to act for the Pittsburgh operators and can settle for the district at any price they may see lit.
This is a decided change of mind on the part of the operators as expressed at tho Cleveland conference, and, taken together with the favorable aspect of affairs in Illinois, seems to indicate that the end of the great strike is near at hand.

Ut'Rln to urn Wood.
CmcAOo, May
P.O.—-Coal
is becoming
scarce in Chicago. Dealers who have it arc letting it g*o out only in small nniounts. Consumers who have contracted for their supplies are crying for it, and the outside demand is slowly forcing* up the price. Many of tho dealers say that the coal supply will last only from a week to twelve days longer. What will be done after that no one attempts to explaip.
As far as it is possible, wood is being burned to effect a saving of coal. In many of the stations, in ottlces and in watch towers where a month ago bright coal fires burned, to-day wood Is being fed into the big stoves. One dealer said that the only result of the present squeeze will be the moro general adoption of wood and crude oil for motive and heating purposes.
Foraging for Fuel.
Not alone In Chicago is the supp'y running low, but it is saiil that nearly all the railroads aro holding all the coal they can lay hands oil. The supply from the east being all but shut off', some of the roads have begun to bring coal down from the Lake Superior region.
Dealers who have so far received all the coal originally consigned to them without losing half a dozen cars consider themselves lucky. Some of the roads have confiscated whole train loads of coal ".•believer thoy happeu to bo ill need of it. One eastern road particularly is said to have seized a large number of cars. marine Men Begin to Suffer.
Coal for steamboats and tugs is becoming very scarce in the river. It is said that there are less than 1,000 tons on the docks, and that is all owned by the O. S. Richardson company. Steambarges have to pay S4.2f a ton for SJi coal. As yet there has been no delay to the boats.
