May Si*n,| IIIn Troop* Into Indiana. Yesterday afternoon Governor Matthews sent a dispatch to Governor Altgeld authorizing him to send Illinois state troops into the state of Indiana at Hammond when necessary. Governor Altgeld said that as Hammond is practically a part of Chicago he may use the Illinois state troops in accordance with Governor Matthews' permission, whenever necessary for the purpose of supI pressing lawlessness. A special train left here late last night for Chicago hearing a detail of United | States infantry under command of Major Hartz, having in custody four of the ringleaders in yesterday afternoon's disorders there. Major Hartz was seen on ids arrival in Chicago by an Associated Press representative and si»oke very tersely of the trouble, observing very significantly in conclusion: "Things have quieted down somewhat at Hammond since the trouble in the afternoon." Troops Ordered to Fire. At a late hour last night all was quiet, although several groups of rioters made threatening demonstrations at different points about the city during the evening. The officer commanding the United States forces made public last night the following telegram received by him from General Miles: "General Schofield wires that Governor Matthews of I Indiana has asked the president that three companies of United States troops he sent to Hammond to disperse the mob of rioters. This makes your duty and that of the troops plain. You are directed to fire on any mob or any men obstructing line of road, and hold the place until further orders." Engineer McLean and Fireman Cooper of the Michigan Central, who were dragged from their engine and brutally beaten by the mob. are in a serious condition and not expected to recover. H. B. Miles, superintendent of the interlocking system, who was badly injured in the morning's row, will recover. TI-KItlFIC KXFLOSION.

Foreign < oimiirnt on tlie Vrlkc. London, July 9. — The Times this this morning, commenting editorially upon the great railroad strike in America, says: The federal injunction ordering the strike leaders to tease seems an almost needless formality. We can only hope that it is intended as a prelude to the suppression of the rioting by military force. In the present state of affairs it is idle to talk of a milder remedy. The Standard says: The disorder has attained alarming dimensions becanse it was not nipped in the bud. The constitutional pedantries of the government ut Illinois are disgusting and surprising.

Troop* hii<1 Rioter* Come Together Kt Chicago With ratal lleHUlt*. Chifago, July 9.—The strikers and

the state of Illinois came together Saturday and a pitched battle was the result. The number of killed amj, wounded will never be known, as the mob carried off a number of men who were seen to fall. At least 10 were killed. The fight occurred at the intersection of Forty-ninth street and the Grand Trunk tracks, a locality which has always had an evil name and which can produce any day two toughs for every square yard of territory within a ra<\ius of a half mile. Comparative quiet prevailed here yester-

day.

Early this morning the stock yards police bad another encounter with rioters. Several shots were tired but no one was injured. The trouble occurred at Fortieth street and Emerald avenue. A packinghouse firm attempted to move some dressed lieef. The strikers discovered the attempt and tried to intimidate the teamster. The police were called and the crowd -esisted all efforts to disperse them. The police then fired a volley over the heads of the strikers which caused them to disperse. Six of them were arrested charged with riot.

utn anc. t res:,me rrom employes to railway officials is that the plan failed. South of the river the strike is nearing an end. Locally the roads are doing better every day. The tamide and mass

meeting of strikers at Mi

is awaited with some apprehension.

General >1 cnbundi*#* Stop#* Sucked by Ignorant Alien*. Princeton, Ills., July 9.—The general merchandise store of the White Breast Fuel company at Ladd was looted last night by a mob of 1,200 alien miners from Spring Valley. The stock was valued at S;to,0(>0 and will be a complete loss. The mob was composed of Italians, Poles and Lithuanians, being of the same class that has caused the depredations at Spring Valley. The strikers have become so emboldened by their success of the last three days that they made known for the first time their plans for the future. It is the sacking of the buildings of coal companies, the destruction of the machinery and the burning of the mines. The work, the miners assert, will lie accomplished before tom< irruw. TWO KILLED.

BASlBALL.

<;i nkral miles. oral Haggles and Secretary Latnont. During the morning Senators Dubois and Slump of Idaho called at the white house to urge federal protection for Wallace, Ida., where rioting is reported. The governor of Idaho made a strong appeal for troops to quell the rioting. The senators were admitted to the cabinetroom and the whole matter was discussed. The situation in Idaho presents a different phase from the troubles elsewhere inasmuch as the trouble is not connected with the railroad strike, and the governor lias called for federal

troops.

Must KxIih'i*! ISIh Kcsimi're*. It was pointed out to the senators that the governor must certify that he has exhausted all of the resources in his power before file president can respond. Tlie senators telegraphed the fact to the governor with suggestions how to proceed, and if lie follows them by a formal statement in due tonn, United States troops from Fort Sherman will be speedily dispatched to Wallace to quell

the rioters.

The only official report that came to the white house was a telegram from General Miles, saying that Saturday night bail passed quietly in Chicago and that lie expected no serious trouble. Of course this was encouraging to the administration and it confirmed General Miles’ forecast, when he was in communication with Secretary Latnont by long distance telephone. Much gratification is felt here at the issue by Archbishop Feebait of his circular to all Catholics, enjoining them to impress on their congregations tiie patriotic duty of yielding respect and obedience to Un-

lawful authorities.

Strong Force of IlcNcrve*.

It is explained by the war department officials that the reinforcements from northern New York and Omaha were sent at the suggestion of General Miles, not because he doubted the sufficiency of his present force to deal with his share of the responsibility at Chicago, but as a measure of precaution to cover emergencies at other points in the department of tlie Missouri. The general believes it is good military practice to maintain a strong force of reserves at some central

Taylor, the new recorder of deeds, has caused a great sensation in colored society in Washington. The extensive patronage of the recorder's office has In-on looked upon as the property of the more aristocratic colored jieople.

In nis selections he says he prefers to open the chances ef the office to clerks, copyists and others who have abundant c»paeity to till the jiositioiis, and who havHeed of the places to -aril a livelihood.

Now, therefore, 1, Grover Cleveland, president ot tlie United States, do hereby admonish all good citizens and all persons who may he or may come within the city and state aforesaid against aiding, iountenancitig, encouraging or taking any pari in such unlawful obstructions, combinations and assemblages. I hereby warn all persons engaged in or in any way connected with such unlawful obstructions, combinations and assemblages to disperse and retire peaceably to their respective abodes on or m-fore 12 o'clock, noon, on tho 9th of July inst. Those who disregard this warning ami persist in taking part witli a riotous mob in forcibly resisting and obstructing the execution of the laws of the United States or interfering with the functions of the government or destroying or attempting to destroy the property la-longing to the United States or under its protection cannot be regarded otherwise than its public

enemies

While there will be no hesitation or vacillation in ihe decisive treatment of the guilty, this warning is especially intended to protect and save the innocent. In testimony whereof I hereunto set my hand and cause the seal of the United States to he hereto affixed.
