One Company's Detective Seized One Hundred Rifles That He Found Cached Near the Nevada Town.
Goldfield, Nev., Dec. 9. It is reported that Col. Reynolds commanding the federal troops here, is of the opinion. that mine owners mislead the, war department in calling for military protection and is about to recommend the recall of soldiers. Goldfield, Nev., Dec. D. Captain William Cox, Governor Sparks' representative in Goldfield, states that ho lias Information from the Mine Owners association that an attempt will be made during the week to reopen the mines nere with nonunion men. The information has been communicated to the governor, and is in the hands of Colonel Alfred Reynolds commanding the Federal troops. Officials of the Mine Owners' association refuse to say positively that such is the case, but every indication points to the fact that Wednesday next has been decided on as the day w hen the I attempt will be made to put men in the mines. If there is to be a clash between the members of the Western Federation of Miners and the Federal oldiers it will come at that time. There are now nine companies of Iroopa here, the second detachment from Monterey having gone into camp on Combination Hill, within 300 yards of the mill of the Goldfteld Consolidated company. The first detachment, which came from San Francisco, remains in the camp established In the northwestern part of the city, a mile and a half from the nearest mine. Colonel Reynolds refuses to say whether he will detail soldiers to patrol the mines when the attempt is made to reopen, but merely states that the troops are here to preserve , order. Sheriff Ingalls is not here and the sheriff's office is in the hands of tinder Sheriff Bert Knight, who asserts that he is amply able to handle any crisis that may arise. He has sworn in a dozen deputies. He characterizes the statements made by the mine owners that the union men are arming themselves and preparing to make trouble, as false, and eays that in his belief there will be no effort made to prevent the mine owners from working the mines with whatever men they may employ. A telegram which the sheriff sent to Governor Sparks, protesting against the presence of federal troops in Goldfield remains unanswered. All of the mines are picketed at present by union men, and, according to the statement of the owners, it is impossible for the owner or manager of a property to visit his property to know what condition it is in, much less to put men in the mines to work the pumns. Roth sides declare that the fight is on and that it Is to a finish. The day has been remarkably quiet. Martial law has not been proclaimed and the officers and troops have remained in their camrs. Saptain Sage, of the Consolidated mines company detective patrol, reported last night that he had seized 100 rifles that had been cached a short distance from Goldfield. This is presumed to be a part of the cache of arms and ammunition which it ig represented the miners have collected during the last few days.

OP THE CZAR. St. Petersburg. Dec. S. The condl-l tlou of the Czarina is so critical to-! day as to cause the gravest appre- ( hension. Physicians were in consul-! tation this afternoon. The Czarina is! unable to take food or medicine and is suffering with a high fever. It is hinted in some quarters that the Czarina J is the victim of a poison plot against j the Czar's life. t The value of silence is demonstrated by the fact that the man who says nothing doesn't have to take it back.

JOSEPH BROWN AND ALBERT BALL, BRAKEMEN, WERE THOWN FROM PILOT OF ENGINE AND BADLY BRUISED. At the Twelfth street crossing Sunday, a man whose name could not be ascertained, was struck by a freight train entering the city from the east. He was driving in a piano box buggy at the crossing, when unexpectedly he was struck by the engine. The vehicle was more or less demolished, but neither the man nor the horse were injured.

FEARS NIGHT RIDERS. Southern Indiana Tobacco Buyers Fear Invasion. Booneville, Ind., Dec. 0. Since the raid of the night riders on Hopkins ville, Ky., reliable information hat been gained from a resident of thii county, who has been working amonf the nightriders , to the effect that Southern Indiana will be visited b them. This man, who was in Hop kinsville at the time of the destruction of the property, and who has beer, among these lawless men for severa months, says that he heard them aa they intended to come into Indiana. It has been suggested by some of the officials of this city that steps be taken and arrangements made to protect the city from the nightriders. South ern Indiana tobacco buyers have been visited by committees from Kentucky and asked to cease buying. They have not obeyed, and for that reason it would not be a surprise, they say, to hear of the Ohio river being crossed. As a protection it has bee nsuggested that arrangements be made with the authorities of Evansville to assist in re sisting any attack that might be made. If the raiders would come to Boonville and burn storage barns as thy did at Hopkinsville, the city would suffer with the limited flre department. The barn used by the American Tobacco company is a large frame structure and if set on flre would burn quickly. Evansville is connected by an inter urban line and help could be gotten within an hour. Every attempt will be made to protect the city from any such attack by the riders. ARE KISSES WORTH SUM OF$7,5B0 EACH Alleged Osculations Problem For Jurymen. WERE TWO KINDS OF KISSES Newburg, N.
