The Coal Company Willing: to Uive up
The T.cafto of Conricta For the
Oood of Peace.
i. Louis, Aug. 20. The latest, from
the mountains of Tennessee ia up to 1 :30
yesterday morning. It is very difficult
to get into the mines, aa the miners
have lined the railway tracks with d3'na
mitc ; and it is is eqvially difficult to ob
tain any definite Eews from there as the
wires have been destroyed and special re
porters in many instances taken captive.
In a fight on the ISth, 12 miners were
killed 20 wounded. An attack by the
miners was made, with 300 men against
150 troops. --.A return- fire "was ordered
"by Gen. Anderson, and a blaze fon
every side of. the fort belchedout. ; Some
were killed outright and many wounded,
the miners took possession of the stock
ade and begaff to order the "convicts to
leave, and bad them all captured when
'Gen. Anderson assembled all his soldiers
at the aide the miner j ; were 'on, and,
moving a howitzer to that eide began to
bombard them. '. The miners stopped in
theirjwork of releasing the convicts, and
turned to get out of the way of the heavy
fusilade of bullets. " The miners re
treated on double quick carrying 12 dead
and about 20 wounded with them. -v
Gen. Carnes' scouts were compelled to
leave the railroad because of dynamite
on the track, and marched through the
woods from Clinton; where they were
fired on by miners. When the main
force came up there was a lively skirm
ish, and in ten minutes the miners were
in full retreat, leaving four Qead and
carrying several wounded with them.
General Games loss is four dead and
six" wounded. The wounded were
placed in an ambulance and taken on
the forward march to Coal creek. The
troops left the regular road, attempting
to reach Coal creek by a mountain pass.
Nothing has been heard from the Knox
ville company since it passed through
Clinton Thursday afternoon.
: Gen. Anderson was captured on Thurs
day by five men coming under a flag of
truce. They enticed him into the vil
large by promises of safety. On turning
a corner they were met by a mob, who
took him to a hotel and demanded that
he sign an order to his lieutenant for the
surrender of the stockade and fort.
Though threatened with hanging, he re
fused to sign, and asked only that he be
shot and his grave marked so his family
could find it. General Carnes advanced
on the depot-' and captured it without
firing a gun. He then moved toward
Fort Andersou, and the miners" fired on
the troops. . One soldier and one miner
was killed,' and three wounded. The
miners surrendered unconditionally and
promised to deliver General Anderson
yesterday afternoon. At Offets, Gen;
Carnes learned that 500 miners awaited
him at Knappa summit, near Coal creek;
and three cattle-cars were lined with
dynamite, so he left the train and went
up a narrow valley, and when last heard
from was within two miles ; of Coal
creek,' awaiting for daylight," when a
bloody fight is expected. .
The officials of the coal .company, in
New York have telegraphed to the Tenn
essee state officials their willingness to
surrender the lease of the- convicts if
they can do so, in the interests of peace.
The companxoffered to surrender it at
the last session of the legislature. Pres
ident T. Ci Piatt pointed out the pecu
liar law of Tennessee by which the pow
er to call out the militia is vested in the
legislature, and not the governor. All
that officer could do was to call a special
season and lay the matter before it. Ten
nessee's militia organization was weak,
anyway. Mr. Piatt said he had no
doubt that the governor would do the
atmpat in hieTpower to preserve law and
order. . : " ,

American SI eats la Demand. -
' Washington, Aug. 20. A. cable from
Berlin, stating that trichinre-' had been
found in American hams and bacon, is
positively denied by Sec. Rusk. He
says:' "We have- not- been officially
notified that any hams or bacon bearing
our government certificates of inspection,
contained trichinje. There have been
meats which did not liear the govern
ment stamp but were certified hy some
German consuls in the United States
which -passed into'Germany. They are
doubtless those alluded to in Hie-dispatch.
.Wo havo. been unable to meet
the demand in Germany for our in
spected meats. They sell fifty cents per
hundred pounds higher than uninspect
ed. Germany has never refnsed our in
spection. We have noohjeftion to their
inspection.'.'
.-Cheating the Native Sons. '
Sheridan Sun. The gobbling , up of
large tracts of fine timber lands in the
Coast range is cheating many a native
and adopted son of Oregon out of rights
under the law to a homestead. No one
ought to get government land in Oregon
except by actual- residence upon and cul
tivation of the tract selected'according
to the law. The law governing the pur
chase of lands has been grossly abused,
and hundreds of men have perjured
themselves to secure land for corpora
tions whose aim is to cut off the valua
ble timber and hold the large tract ac
quired at speculative figures, thus impe
ding the. settlement -of the country,
which, if it is done at all, must be by
the needy but actual settler. :
: Wesuninciter Refrigerator.
Columbian. The fish refrigereter - at
Port Essington is a profound mystery to
the Indians. They cannot understand
how the building is' kept cool when
sparks, smoke and steam are almost al
ways issuing from the place. This re
frigerator is used principally in putting
up white salmon, which are shipped in
ice filled cases to Italy, where there is a
great demand forthe fish thus preserved.
These fish have hither been cast away
as useless, whereat tbey now realize a
fair price, and thus afford a new channel
through which whites and Indians alike
may profit in the future. "
A roll Together.
Condon Globe. Plenty of water has
been found in the various new wells
which have just been dug in different
portions of town, sufficient to supply a
town five times the size of Condon. If
some of our citizens will now stop their
peevish, childish jangling and pull to
gether more harmoniously, instead of
encouraging the town to divide up into
a half-dozen different factions, we will
soon have the leading city of the Inland
Empire. No town ever prospered much
until its citizens all pulled together for
its improvement. .
Uasollne StoveDlaaster.
Ceico, Cal., Aug. 20. As a man
named Wright ' was filling a gasoline
stove, which had been burned out but
retained a spark of fire, somewhere, it
exploded, enveloping himself, wile and
3-year -old child in the flames. The
house was burned down and the child
perished in the flames. Mrs. Wright
cannot 'live and Mr. Wright is badly
burned, his arms to the elbow being
fairly cooked. . One hand will be crippled
for life.
' Unwelcome Visitors.
Moro Observer. The quietude that
prevades the Phelps ranch at the mouth
of the Deschutes was somewhat disturb
ed last week by the presence of a rattle
snake, a wild cat and a gray fox. . The
trio furnished considerable sport - for
Fred and his brother, it being the first
appearance there of such novel .visitors.

Poktland, Aug. 20. An article on
the railway, situation in -general, and
the Transcontinental association in par
ticular, which appeared, in the San -Francisco
Chronicle yesterday and was
telegraphed here, has caused a generous
smile to play about the features the offi
cials of the companies mentioned. The.
Chronicle says the fight being made by .
Sap Francisco merchants to have freight
rates to and from the east reduced has
placed now the Union Pacific in a posi- '
tion to very soon take a hand in the -competition
for the -business, and that
company is making preparations to :
that end. The Pacific Mail Steamship .
company, controlled by the Southern..
Pacific company, has always been han
dled as a club with which to .threaten
any intending competitor on water. As
it is likely that the Transcontinental as
sociation will refuse to pay the subsidy
any longer the Union Pacific will be' .
ready for the business by placing a dai
ly line of steamers to Astoria from San ' .
Francisco. The new railway line from '
Astoria to. Portland, it is an open secrejb, "
is being built by the Union Pacific. The
distance ...between the two towns is 100 ? "
miles, and one-quarter of the road is now
completed. - When this line is finished
the Union Pacific steamers, will land
their freight at Astoria and will then .
send it direct east. There is no question
but the effort to stop the subsidy to the
Pacific Mail Steamship company will be
made at the meeting to be held in New
York next week, but that the '
Union . Pacific - contemplates the
establishment of a daily steamer line
between San Francisco and Astoria is -ridiculous..
The company is now oper-'
ating three steamers, which are adequate- ''
to the demands of trade, though another -steamer
might be added. So far as the -building
of the road from here to Astoria
is concerned, Union Pacific people are - .
not trying to disguise their hand,' and -:
frankly admit that they are interested ,
in the measure. - Every Union Pacifie.iTV
official who has come west during the
past year, says the Telegram, has gone
down to Astoria, not for their health,
but to look after their interests. ? . Apro--i . :

known railroad man said fThe meet
ing may end in a collapse."'. The associa- .
tion boards are dissatisfied because they
are compelled to pay an annual' subsidy
