A gen eral attack upon therbel quarter Pres- nenskl, which began) early this morning with a bombardment whll I was within the barricades, was resumed at midday by artillery, dragoons, the crack Seml nosvisky regiment and batteries of ma chine guns. By I p. m. such little prog ress had been made that Admiral Du bassoff ordered reinforcements from the Kkaterlnoslav regiment sent to the front. The object of the troops was to reduce th workmen's barracks with, the Prok bonoff factory and Schmidts Matntoff thread mills arid take Main Premenakl and th side' street. Seventeen thousand troop surrounded the revolutionary district, closing all the approaches and firing without warning upon everybody. The .battle progressed allnday. Over 1,500 shells were fired into th doomed district, which tonight Is an Inferno. Th flags, of th troops ar slowly., closing in sr eirci.

Their description has been sent out broad cast in the hope of apprehending them on suspicion of being the guilty parties. It la known that at the time of the trial of the rioters the dynamiter por tion of the gang of the Coeur oTAlene was very bitter and openly threatened to "get" the governor and some others who were pitted against them.

It would seam a long tlm for revenge to hang fir. If there be truth In th suspicion that ' ex-aovrnor . rrank Steunenberg was killed- becaus of his aotivlty I at the " time he ' Infamous bullpen was established at Wardner, In the Coeur d'Alenes. . If he' had been klUed In 1180, at th tlm th bullpen was established, the suspicion would hav been natural that some Sympa thiser with the miners Incarcerated In that structure had -been, his, cowardly assassin. But It would seem incredi ble that a feeling of revenge would smolder for six or seven years before being given so dramatic an expression. In th Coeur d'Alenes ar th great silver-lead mines of the" world. These th miners union had thoroughly or ganised, and In th towns of Wallace, Wardner and th other villages of th knife-blade oanyona of th country th unions were predominant. There were numerous claahes between th employ ers and employes, and many outrages. In 1. during the lockout at the Bunker Hill and Sullivan mines, near Wardner, the miners blew up the great mill "of the company, using dynamite. and during the rioting some men were killed. - , At that time Frank 8teunenbrg, Democrat, was. governor of Idaho, and acting upon the request of ths mine owners he called upon th United States authorities to assume control over th troubled districts. The federal troops were brought tn and under their bayo nets the bullpen wag established at Wardner. Thl , waa a . temporary prison structure,- which succeeded th us of freight cars a prisons. Into th bullpen war hurried. Innocent and guilty alike th men who bad been concerned In . the blowing up of the Bunker HU1 and Sullivan property and men who, under no circumstances or th roofs In the center of th city, sweeping th streets with musketry. Viewed from my. roof, on the edge of th inferno, th revolutionary strong hold presents a terrifying ' spectacle. Th rivers of flames have terrified the populace In the peaceful parts of the city. No Information was obtainable when t filed this message as to the loss fit troops or revolutionaries.- Th troops r probably comparatively . unscathed, because they have been firing and ad vanclng systematically from a distance. When the .troops assault with bayonets there will probably b a rebel butchery, as the soldier hav become Infuriated by th rebels' long resistance. ; Many expect two or thr-dw" battl be fore the Insurrection Is sr pressed, and the rebels may escap over th Moscow river, which la difficult to guard.

But in th early stages of the imprisonment there were many hardships, and the- late Patrick Keddy, : who aa an attorney for th mlnera, waa authority for th charge that In one Instance a dying Catholic had been refused the attendance of a priest when he begged to be given the consolation of his i religion before his eyes were closed In death. The mine owners, with the federal bayonets behind them. Imported a Judge who threw out of office the supervis ors, tbe sheriff and other county offi cials of .Canyon county, who had been inclined to- side with th miners as against th owners, And then summoned Jurors who were brought to court to bring In convictions. They began. with th trial of Secre tary Corcoran of th Miners' union, and went down th line, bringing In convic tions to order without regard to the- in- nooenoe or th guilt of th accused par sons. Most of ths men accused very probably were guilty. ; Some of them vary probably wer not But It mad no difference; a Judg had been imported to do a certain work, and Jurors bad been summoned to help him to do It And unquestionably some Innocent men were convloted and.. sentenced. Just as Kris beyond all, question many Innocent men were Incarcerated with the guilty ones in tn ouiipen at waraneje. One Infamous force had reigned for a time In th troubled district only to be succeeded by an equally Infamous fores, whose deeds were Just aa unlawful aa waa the blowing up of the Bunker Hill and Sullivan mill and the killing of de fenseless men by the miners' mob. It la altogether conceivable that out of such a lawlesa condition might at that tlm hav grown th cowardly mur der of th. then governor. Of course there ts a possibility that some men feel ing themselves guiltless who were at that time hustled to Jail may recently have come out of their confinement still nursing a Reeling of rancor and resent ment aggravated by -years of Imprison ment and that Alley have blindly sought to even up the score with the man who had so much ta do with their Incarcera tion. It was a bad business all through. but- It seems Incredible that resentment should Ungar so long and then find so fiendish a revenge. INTER-COUNTY MESS OVER ONE REVOLVER One worn and battered revolver, al leged to have been stolen, which was confiscated by ths police last night may lead to Inter-county complications In volving Multnomsh and Clackamas. A man named Chase, accompanied by a friend, went to police headquarters last night and Informsd Inspector Bruin that Thomas Blood had stolen a number of - articles from him at ' Oswego, In Clackamas" county. These articles, com prising si revolver, ammunition, shoes, clothing and pewter tableware. Chase averred, were in the possession of Blood, who occupied a room at Third and Burn- side streets. . He asksd that th latter be arrested. ' - , Inspector Bruin and Acting Detective Murphyrooompanled by Chase and his friend, went to the room and found Blood. ' All he possessed belonging to Chase was the revolver, which, he as sorted. Chase had given him..- r- Chase would not agree to prosecute Blood and Inspector -Bruin- refused to make an arrest unless it was satisfied that Chase was acting in good faith. As the result of -the discussion the Inspector look possession of th revolver. - "W ar going to keep that revolver until the question of who owne It is definitely settled or this man .
