THE GREAT STRIKE.

Serious Aspect of Affairs in Chicago and the Country Generally. Federal Authorities Arrayed Against the Kloters—Scenes of Violence and ArsonFatal Conflicts with the Regulars —Mob Rule at Hammond, lud. THE MOB VICTORIOUS. Chicago, July 7. —Chief Deputy Marshal Donnelly, backed by a force of regular soldiers, attempted to get a train of cattle out of the stock yards. The strikers came out victorious, and four hours after the start the cattle were returned to the yards and unloaded. _ , Battle for a Train. UjpoN Stock Yards, 111., July 7.—At 10 o'clock a. m. the Michigan Central attempted to run out a live stock train of seventeen cars. This move was opposed by a mob of nearly 8.000 men and boys. The police, unabled to command the situation, sent to Dexter park for the United States troops. Two companies were sent, but were insufficient. At 11 o’clock troops B and K of the Seventh and light battery E of the First artillery with three guns, responded. The Gatling guns were placedin a position so that they commanded a clear space on the tracks for three block. At 11:45 the train started under a military escort. The strikers again obstructed it by overturning three box cars on the tracks. This obstruction was removed. The cavalry led the way while the infantry strung out Indian file alongside the entire length of the train. The train was again stalled, and the troops charged the crowd with bayonets. Attacked a Train. The mob of strikers and sympathizers which had been derailing cars in the stock yards district, after successfully stalling the Michigan Central freight train on Fortieth street, proceeded to the Pittsburgh & Fort Wayne tracks at Fortieth street where they held up mi incoming train, compelled all passengers to leave the cars and then dragged the engineer and fireman from the cab. They then broke all the glass in the cab and derailed the engine. The mob then ran up to Fortieth and Clark streets and set fire to the Lake Shore signal house. Ail this time the United States troops •Were up at llalsted street guarding "the Michigan Central train. Fought Its Way Through. Fighting every inch of way, the Chicago, Rock Island & Pacific railroad brought three passenger trains through from Blue Island Thursday. Bayonets, revolvers and police clubs were used against the mobs which at times filled the right of way, and the mob fought back by overturning freight cars in front of the line of trains. Between Fifty-first street and Twen-ty-fifth street over twenty-five box Cars were thrown across the tracks, fbr the mob ran ahead and upset the cars faster than the railroad officials could clear the tracks. The train left Sine Island at 9:30 o'clock in the inornMg and arrived at,the Rock Island deb>''t at 7:15 o'clock in the evening, using ©.vet ten hours inNuaveling less than IC'miles. Drjving Out Tower Men.

A mob numbering- 1.000 started on its way north towards the center of tl-.i city and drove all the tower and signal men out of the towers on ell the roads leading to the Polk Street depot and the Kort Wayne road Which parallel them. The men went Out. without exception. Another large gang started for the Rock Island and Dake Shore tracks to order out the signal and tower men of those roads. ♦Troops are located at the point where these mobs started from but did nothin g to prevent their leaving as they claimed they had to give their attention to getting out the Michigan Central train. Hie Situation. Chicago, July 9.—Gov. Altgeld on '.Friday ordered out the First and ♦Third brigades of the militia to report Co Mayor Hopkins to aid in suppressing riots. The militia were wanted for police duty, therefore the mayor turned it over to the police officials. Available Force in the City. Three hundred extra policemen have keen sworn in, increasing the police

.force to 3,300. There are in the nei<>hIhorhood of 1,000 deputy United States xnai'B>hals in active service, and half That.number of deputy sheriffs. The Leavenworth regulars, 300 strong, and those, from Fort Brady, 150 strong, arrived Friday morning. The force available in the city Friday night was therefore roughly as follows: Willtia 3,000 i?oliee 3,300 Regulars.... 1,000 Xeputy sheriffs 500 Deputy marshals 1.000 Total. §,OOO Detachments of the regulars did service in several parts of the South side, hut maintained their camp on the lake fiont as a reserve.

APPLIED THE TORCH. Strikers Burn Hundreds of Cars at the Chicago Stock Yards. From Brighton Park to Sixty-first street the yards of the Pan-Handle Xoad were Friday night put to the foreh by the rioters. Between 600 and ££‘o freight cars have been destroyed, many of them loaded. Miles and miles erf costly track are a snarled tangle of teat-twisted rails. Not less than #750,000 —possibly a whole $1,000,000 of property—has been sacrificed to the caprice of the rioters. , A Night of Terror. The frenzied mob applied the torch indiscriminately. From Halsted street fciE isdxin, and then to Blue Island on tiie. Grand Trunk toad, they spiked switches and upset shanties and freight trains, to which they applied torch. Before doing so it was •ten that they had taken precautions t' prevent property from being saved. E -.’trie light wires were severed •r the town plunged into darkness. E . jty cartridge shells were forced fi-to the keyholes of the fire alarm

boxes When the fire department reached the scene after an alarm it was to find everything in cinders. The Ashland avenue depot was fired and when an effort was made to save it the mob opposed the firemen, uncoupled the hose and hurled bricks and stones.

THE SCENE CHANGED. Riotous Demonstrations of the Mobs at Kensington, 111. Chicago. July 9. —The rioting broke out early Friday morning. The scene of the principal tumult changed from Lake to Kensington. In the town which lies over against Pullman and is inhabited principally by laboring men and their families the mob began to gather in force, growing in such numbers as almost to overshadow the large force of deputies. The officers stood in a frightful hail of stones and coupling pins. Rioters charged repeatedly on the marshal’s and the sheriff's men. Freight trains were derailed and thrown across the track. Thousands of strikers came over from Pullman and engaged in the work of destruction.

STONED BY THE MOB. Rioters Wantonly Attack a Number of Passenger Trains. Chicago, July 9. —The most dastardly act of violence committed by the strikers near the yards Friday occurred on the Fort Wayne tracks between Thirty-seventh and Thirtyeighth streets at 10:50, when a mob stoned a suburban train filled with men, women and children. The police in command of Capt. O’Neill and Lieut. Fitzpatrick charged the crowd and fired all the shots in their revolvers over the heads of the mob. This was the first shot fired by the police in the strike. One unknown striker was shot in the back. Two men were arrested by the police. It was a most astounding piece of work on the part of the mob. The train did not stop, but kept on its way toward the city. Every window in the cars was shattered and a number of people must have been hurt by the fusillade of rocks that filled the air. Shot by the Troops. Chicago, July 10. —The first real battle of the strikers occurred Saturday afternoon. A detail of thirty-eight members of the Illinois national guard was sent to clear the debris from the tracks of the Grand Trunk road. At Forty-ninth and Loomis streets the mob became abusive and demonstrative. A bayonet charge was ordered. This was followed by two volleys. In the last volley the soldiers shot to kill; as a result three strikers are dead, many more are wounded, and five soldiers suffered from contusions received by stones thrown by the rioters. Another Fatal Conflict. During the early part of the evening a conflict ensued between members of company D., Fifteenth United States infantry, and a body of strikers who were engaged in overturning and burning cars in the Pan-Handle yards. The soldiers fired on the mob and one man was killed.

Attempted Arson. Early Saturday evening a malicious attempt was made to burn the great packing houses in the stock yaids.but the fire was extinguished after a hard tight before a serious property loss had been entailed. The rest of the fires kindled by rioters during the day were confined to guerrilla attacks on freight cars in the outlying yards of the railroads. Fatal Fight at Hammond, Ind. Mob rule at Hammond was broken Sunday only after a bloody battle. Thousands of rioters were on the scene. The track from yard to yard and crossing to crossing was strewn with overturned freight cars, battered and burned coaches, twisted rails and I broken switches. Non-union trainmen were assaulted and beaten. Telegraph instruments were destroyed. Electric light wires were cut. Police, deputies and marshals were powerless. Rioters numbered a hundred to their one. Company D. Fifteenth regiment of the United States infantry, arrived at >1 a. m. An armed peace was then sus-

tained until 4 o'clock. Then the mob grew desperate again. The regulars opened fire and one man was killed and four wounded. The rioters wavered but soon rallied and would probably have annihilated the little band had not reinforcements arrived from Chicago. The appearance of fresh troops caused the mob to retire to a safe spot. Sixteen companies of Indiana militia, numbering 800 men, were started from points in northern Indiana for Hammond. The two governors of Indiana and Illinois decided to use the militia of tlie two states in conjunction for putting down the insurrection at Hammond. Protest to the President. President Debs, on behalf of the A. R. U., and Grand Master Workman Sovereign, of the Knights of Labor, have joined in a telegram to President Cleveland in which, after making an explicit and concise statement of the causes of the strike and the situation as it is. ask to have the federal troops withdrawn from Chicago. They say their presence is an insult to honest labor and has merely augmented the feeling of unrest. They proclaim their fidelity to the American flag, and pledge the support of the organizations which they represent in preserving the peace.

IT SPREADS. The Great Strike Rapidly Sweeping Toward the East. Cleveland, 0.. July 9. —Local railway men decided almost unanimously to go out. At 6a. m. every man obeyed the order to quit, aud not a freight wheel is turning in the Cleveland yards. Detroit Lines Are Idle. Detroit, Mich., July 9. —Every railroad in Detroit was tied up after 10:30 Friday night in accordance with the action of the joint meeting of representatives of all the local brotherhoods. All the railway firemen. switchmen, yardmen, brakemen and freight handlers in the city went ouu The engineers and conductors did not strike, but it will be

impossible to operate trains, as the engineers will not work with non-union firemen. The Michigan Central, which had heretofore been free from the strike locally, is tied up. New York Is Alarmed. New York, July 9. —All vacations in the police department have been stopped by order of Superintendent Byrnes, and all members of the force, from captain down, who had left the city on their vacations, have been summoned by telegraph to return forthwith. Refuse to Strike. Peoria, 111., July 9.—The switchmen in the Peoria &, Pekin union yards have voted to remain at work and handle all freight. They say they have no grievance and will not go out. ,

A REIGN OF TERROR. Established by Foreigners at Spring Valley, 111. Princeton. 111., July 10. —The general merchandise store of the White Breast Fuel company at Ladd was thoroughly looted Saturday night by a mob of 1,200 alien miners from Spring Valley. The mob was composed of Lithuanians, Poles, Belgians and Italians, being of the same class that has caused the depredations at Spring Valley, and most of them the same men. Deputies Save Seatonville. Following the destruction of company stores at Spring Valley and Ladd the miners had in mind the looting of the company store at Seatonville. For this purpose a division left Spring Valley and Ladd in small groups, and by 7 o’clock Sunday evening had amassed a force of several hundred on the bluffs near Sceatonville. In the meantime Sheriff Cox returned to Princeton and eighty men were selected and deputized They were also furnished with rifles and ammunition that the governor had furnished and started in wagons for Seatonville. The miners learning the strength of the deputies retreated to Spring Valley. The deputies then pressed on and reached Spring Valley after midnight. In PoKseHsion of Spring Valley. At Spring Valley the striking miners has had possession of the city. Sunday morning a meeting was held on the Rock Island tracks east of town at which the non-English-speaking men predominated. It was resolsed to effectually stop traffic on the railroads passing through Spring Valley, and the meeting broke up for the purpose of carrying out the resolution. Seeking Places of Safety. Over the east half of the county a reign of terror has set in and woman and children have been leaving the towns in that section in large numbers. Valuable property of all kinds is being secreted. At Seatonville Sunday night, a village, of 1,200 people, there were scarcely enough women in the town to prepare supper for the deputies. In Possession of Spring Valley. Springfield, 111., July 9.—Sneriff Cook, of Bureau county, telegraphed Gov. Altgeld giving a statement of the situation at Spring’ Valley, and asking that troops be sent to aid him in restoring’ quiet. A similar dispatch was received from Sheriff Taylor, of La Salle county, who said be needed troops to help him defend the cities of Peru and La Salle, threatened with invasion by the mob. The governor issued orders for companies A and C of the Sixth infantry to proceed at once to Spring Valley and cooperate with the sheriffs of Bureau and La Salle counties in suppressing violence and restoring order.

Hally Losses of the Roads. At the meeting of the General Managers’ association reports of daily losses to the different roads were submitted. The sum total is appalling, but the managers say if it were ten times greater they still would stay in the fight to the end. Here is a table showing what the railroad companies are losing each day: Chicago & Alton $ 16.000 Baltimore & Ohio 8.000 Chicago <S. Northwestern 14 000 Atchison, Topeka &, santa Fe 20 w Wisconsin t entral 6.000 Chicago & Calumet Terminal 18.000 ( hicago & Northern Pacino 20,000 ( hicago, Burlington & Quincy 20 W 0 Chicago & Eastern Illinois....'. 1-5.000 J llinois Central 30 000 Nickel Plate 4,000 Michigan i entral 2.000 ( hicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul 8.000 Fort Wayne (and Pan Handle) 15,000 Wabash 15,0-)o Grand Trunk . 5,000 Kock Island 11.900 Maple Leaf 8,000 Monon 2,000 Total $250,000

FLATLY REFUSED. The Pullman Company Again Rejects Overtures of Peace. Chicago, July 11.—The final answer of the Pullman company has been given its employes. No pioposition for an adjustment of the differences existing between the company and the strikers by arbitration will be entertained. Vice President Wickes was waited upon by a joint committee of aidermen and workingmen at 4 o’clock Monday afternoon. To the overtures made tending toward arbitration he firmly replied that the Pullman company would not recede from the stand it had taken. The refusal of the company to entertain any proposition for arbitration was in direct defiance of the order of the mass meeting of union delegates Sunday night, and a strike of the allied trades will be instituted to-morrow morning unless some adjustment of the difficulties is made to-aay. This, however, is improbable, as Mr. Wickes left no room to doubt that the company would stand on the ground which it has taken. Naval Militia Called Into Action. The First battalion of the Illinois naval militia was ordered out Monday by Adjt. Gen. Orendorff. The battalion numbers 250 men and at least 230 will be pressed into service. It will be the duty of the battalion to gn;-rd the waterworks, crib and p üblic wharves Negroes Filling Vacancies. Monday morning the Rock Island company distributed a car load of negroes in the towers along the road from Twenty-sixth street south. A crowd of excited strikers gathered around the tower houses at the different street corners and threatened to kill the negroes if they did not leave the tower houses. At noon a mob was vainly trying to burn the buildings when a company of troops arrived and dispersed the crowds. The.recent action of the American Railway union in voting to exclude colored men from their ranks has can .ed considerable hard feeling among the negroes and it is said they will fill the positions vacated by the strikers whenever possible. Michigan Men Return. Detroit. Mich., July 11.—The strike in the Michigan Central yards came to au end MoU-

day when every employe wno had been disaffected returned to work. At the Union depot the situation is unchanged. No Wabash trains arrived or departed during the morning. The Flint & Pere Marqette and Detroit. Lansing & Northern passenger trains are running on time. Censured the Soldiers. Hammond, Ind., July 11.—A coroner’s inquest was held on the body of Charles Fleischman, who was killed Sunday in the volley which the regulars poured into the mob, and a verdict returned that deceased came to his death by a bullet fired by certain United States soldiers, said shooting being careless, unnecessary, unwarranted and criminal. A Militia Company Strikes. Tacoma, Wash., July 11.—Troop A, of the Second regiment of national guards, y? Washington, refused to ride on a Northern Pacific train manned by non-union crews. The entire troop, consisting of sixty men, was placed under arrest, loaded in a box car and taken east with the train carrying the balance of the state militia en route from the state camp. When Troop A arrives at Sprague it will be courtmartialed. All of the troopers will resign, however, on reaching home. Cost of the Strike. Outside the question of the turmoil of the strike itself is another serious factor. Tho strike is costing the country many millions of dollars. The dispatches printed from a majority of tho towns give an estimate of the losses thus far entailed to the business interests of the several communities. Figures compiled from these estimates show that the loss to busini ss and the loss in wages of strikers aggregate $28,000,000. The estimate is believed to be lew. The showing seems to indicate that George M. Pullman's refusal to arbitrate and the efforts of the A. R. U. to force him to are costing the country a day. The number of men thrown out of employment, both by railroads and manufacturing e tablishments which have been forced to shut down through lack of fuel and raw material, runs in the neighborhood of 50,000. Vice President Howard, of the A. R. U., estimated the railroad men on strike to number 51,900 Notes. At the request of Mayor Hopkins Gov. Altgeld has ordered twelve more companies of Illinois militia to Chicago. The strike at Indianapolis was materially extended Monday by the walking out of the firemen. brakemen and switchmen of the at. Louis div sion of the Big Four road. They were persuaded to quit by an agent of President Debs. Terre Haute business interests are suffering in an exceptional manner. None of the roads have re.eived freight at this point for a week, but as the switchmen have not gone out at Indianapolis freight is received there and delivered to customers of Terre Haute houses all around the city.

THREE ARE KILLED. Two Women and a Man Slain by Shots from the Militia. Danville, 111., July 11. —Word was received from Grape Creek, 5 miles south of here, that several cars on side tracks of a branch of the C. & E. 1. had been derailed. An engine and crew were sent out to clear the line. At 10 a. tn. the Shelbyville train arriving at Westville station, 2 miles from Grape Creek, was surrounded by a crowd of miners out on a sympathetic strike. A company of militia stationed at Danville junction proceeded to the scene. About a mile from Westville a large crowd of miners began warlike demonstrations. Several pistol shots from the crowd were returned by a volley from the soldiers on the train. Miss Clara James, the 17-year-old daughter of Jonas James, was seated at the organ in her house. A random bullet struck her just below the right breast and she died almost instantly. .Mrs. Michael Glennan, a widow, was crossing her garden. Two bullets strudk her and she died in five minutes. An unknown man received a mortal body wound and died in a short time. Resistance developing, the militia left the train and charged the crowd, securing three prisoners. The crowd dispersing and no further resistance being offered, the troops returned to their train, which had been coupled in front of the passenger, and the trip to Danville was made without further incident.

PEFFER’S RESOLUTIONS.

Trants Government Control of Railways, Mines. Money and Uniform Wages. Washington, Jrly 10. —In the senate Senator Peffer offered an omnibus resolution providing: 1. That all public functions ought to be exercised through public agents. 2.

Whiting News Uses Wall Paper.

Whiting, Ind., July 9. —Whiting is suffering severely from a meat famine. Since the Pullman boycott began it has been impossible to get meat into this town. All the markets have closed and provisions are running low in the grocery stores. These will be compelled to close if trains, do not eom--1 mence running. The Whiting News ■ failing to receive its supply of patent I insides from Chicago issued Friday ; night on wall paper.

New York Close to Two Million.

New York, July 10. —The 108th volume of the New York city directory will be ready for, distribution to-day. This year’s volume contains 387,411 names, and, at the ratio of five to one, it is estimated that the city contains 1.937.055 inhabitants residing or doing business within 41 square miles. In the Chicago directory the names rep resented spread over 185 square miles and in Philadelphia 129 square miles.

Comments of the German Press.

Berlin, July 9.—The entire German press, without party distinction, regards the railroad war as being disas trous to the future of the United States. The newspapers maintain the action of the city, state and federal authorities shows a bewildering lack of union. Albert Kent and Mrs. Golden were drowned in the St. Joe river while rowing near Fort \V\yue, Ind.
