Knoxvtlle, Aug. 19. Another story of yesterday's fight at Coal CreeK is to the effect tbat 12 miners were killed hud 20 wounded. An attack by tbe miners was made, with 800 men against 150 troops. A return fire was ordered by General Anderson, and a blaze from everv side of the tort belched out. Some were killed bucright and many wounded At tbe stockade tbev stopped and tbe men clambered over tbe walls. to release the convicts. The fort is some distance from tbe stockade and higher op. The doors and entrances were thrown open and the miners were at last in possesmm Tbev began to order the convicts lo leave, and had tbem al! captured when General Anderson assembled all bis sol diers at the side tbe miners were on, and, moving a howitzer to tbat side,. began to bombard them. The miners stopped m their work ol releasing tbe convicts, and turned to get out of the way of the heavy fusilade of bullets. Again and again their leaders begged them to fight, but they rushed down tbe bill to escape tbe furious onslaught of tbe soldiers. With a never bait and never rally gait, they reached tbe bottom of tbe hiil, bearing 13 dead ana more than 20 wounded miners with tbem'. Thev hurried far out of sight and reach of the guns . Tbev then collected their shattered and wound ed forces. It is feared more than 50 are wounded, and more are dead than re ported. A train bearing the Springfield rifles and troops from Nashville arrived at 11 o'clock and were joined by 200 citizens from here and started for Coal Creek. jient-raJ Anderson a Prisoner. Knoxvili.b. Aug 19 The latest intel ligence was received from Coal Creek at 1.30 tbis moroiog, from a correspondent who escaped' and made bis way to Offett's, where tbe wires are working. His repo't confitmed tbe rumors received earlier in the night tbat General Ander son was captured by five men coming under a flag of truce. They enticed him into the village by promises of safety. On turning a ccrner they were met by a mob, who took him to a hotel and de manded that he sign an order to his lieu tenant for the surrender ot the stockade and tort. Though threatened with bang ing, be refused to sign, and asked ooly that be be -bot and hi grave marked so bis family could find it He may bave been lynched ere this. ' A desultory fir ing lasted all night. Tbe miners cluim to bave killed bve soldiers, and silenced the howitzer. It is silent but probably to save ammunition. ' A Offrtt's General Carnes learned ibat 500 miners awaited bim at Knapp's Summit, near Coal Creek, and tbrfe cattle pars were filled with dy namite, so be left tbe train and went up a narrow valiey, and when last heard from was within two miles of Coal Creek. awtuing for dayligot. when a bloody figbt is expected. , .

The flames were discovered by workmen on tbe city ball, who gave tbe alarm and rushed to tbe scene, finding' the building enveloped. in flames- -Thinking they heard : the groans of some one inside, they went in at tbe risk of their Jives and bore out what proved to be tbe charred remains ol Mrs. Bngga. At first it 'was tboogbt life was - no: entirely extinct, so physicians were snmmoLed, but it was too late. Sbe bad evidently inhaled tbe flames and, being partially overcome, bad started from the room in the hope oi making ber escape, but sank exhausted in tbe hall where she was found. No one seems to know how the fire ongiuated, as tbe rest of the family were away, bat the suppo sition is tbat she was starting a fire in a gasoline stove, wbicb - explnaed Mr. Bnggs was well and favorably known throughout' tbe state, being tbe sister of President John W. Johnson, ot the State University at Eugene, and tbe mother of Mrs. J. R. Bryeon of this city. ' : . . A Question of Fees).';' ' i . Labamib, Wyo Aug. 19.

Tbe Canadian government bad asked for delay, pleading tne absence of the mm isters from Ottawa, sod other reasons text of the proclamation. The president's proclamation, after re citing tbe text ot the act ot congress under which it is issued, concludes as fol lows: Whereas the government of tbe Dominion of Canada imposes a .toll amounting to about 20 cents per ton on all freight passing tbroogb tbe Wetland canal in transit to ports of tbe United States, and also a further toll on all ves sels ot the United States, and on all pas sengers in transit to a port of tbe United States, all ot wbicb tolls are without rebate, and whereas tbe government of tbe Dominion ot Canada, in accordance with an order in council of April 4, 1892, refunds 18 cents per ton of toe 20 cents toll at tbe Wellaod canal on wheat. Indian corn, peas, barley, rye, oats, flax seed and buck wneat, upon condition that tbey are originally shipped fot and car ried to Montreal, or some port east of Montreal, for export, and tbat if tranship ped at an intermediate point, such tran shipment is to be made within tbe Dominion of Canada, but allows nosncb. nor any other rebate, on tbe said products when shipped to a poit of tbe Lotted States, or when carried to Mootreal for export if transhipped within the United States; and whereas, tbe government of Canada by tbe said svstem ot rebate and otherwise, dlecri tunnies against the clu zens of the Uuited Mates la the use of tbe said Wellaod canal, in violation of tbe provisions of article 27, ot tbe treaty ot Washington, concluded May 8 1871, and whereas, the said Wellaod canal is connected with tbe navigation of tbe Great Lakes, and I am satisfied tbat tbe passage through it of cargoes In transit to ports of tbe Uoited States, is made difficult and burdenrome bv tbe said dis cfimijsting system of rebate and other wise,' and is reciprocally unjust and un reasonable; now, tberefore, I, Baojamin Harrison, president ot tbe United States of America, by virtue of the power to that end conferred Upon me by tbe said act of congress, approved July 26, 1892, do hereby direct tbat, from. and after September 1, 1892, until lurtber notice, a toll of 20 cents per ton be levied, collec ted and paid oo all freight, of whatever kind or description, passing through tbe St. Alary s f ails canal, lo transit toaov port of the Dominion of Canada, whether carried in vessels of the United States or of other nations; and to tbat extent I do hereby suspend, from and after tbe said date, tbe right ot free passage through the said 8.

Absolute peace reigned throughout Coal Creek valley to day, and,- but for the move ments ot the soldiers, tbe village tbat for uearly a week bas been tbe scene of fierce combat was as quiet as a New England (arm town. There were a great many strangers in, tbis place visiting tbe scene ot the riors. f our buudred miners and ciMzeqs of Coal Creek bave been arrested. and 200 of tbem bave been held for further examination. They bave been removed from the cars and are now guarded in acburch. Some of them are still very defiant, abusing the officers in charge and threatening dire vengeance on t heir captors.

The sheriff de clined to serve warrants; and tbe deputy sheriff was ordered to s-rve tbem. The indicted men say tbey will resist arrest, and it is thought a large force will be necessary to capture tbem. ll.wa In Tennessee. Nashville, Tenn Aug. 20. General Carnes is in full control of tbe situation at Coal Creek, and tbis afternoon tele graphed Gevernor Buchanan tbat only tbe First and Second regiments would be needed to maintain peace. The volun teers will therefore be returned to their homes st once. General Carne bas ar rested 400 miners and they are closely guarded in box cars. Tbey will be ptos- ecuted. Matters are becoming settled and more quiet. , One of tbe guards at Fort Anderson, who returned here to day. says tbe bodies of four miners, not re ported yes'erday, and several wounded men weie found on the battlefield tbis morning. Squads of soldiers and miners are scouring the woods for tbe dead and wounded. Fiiteen dead, miners were fonnd in tbe viciuity of the late troubles, and there are orobably more in tbe woods. - What Powder ly Says. Wtlkesbakrb, Pa , Aug. 21. Mr. Powderly says in an interview: "While I don't advocate strikes, I hope the switchmen will win. Tbey deserve to. Tbeir boors are long, tbeir work danger ous and tbeir pay poor. The average pay is $1 88 for 12 and 14 hours' work. I would like to ask bow an American citizen is going to keep a family on sucb an income. Hungarian and otber for eigners wbo live like cattle in shanties might be able to do it, but tbe American cannot. I tbink every fair minded man in tbis country will agree witb me oo this point: so will the wives of our American workingmen.". . Una Aet Together. " . -, Buffalo. Aug. 23. It is believed here that tbe fireman of the local organization have passed tbe point where tbe enthusi asm of tbeir sympathy might take tbem ont on a strike..: It is thought now tbat tbey will go.out independent of tbe order at large.. Dnnng every hour since Friday night's meeting, firemen, wbo are in a position to know exactly what tbe com panies are doing In freight traffic, bave observed a steady in create In the move- ment ol freight. It is said Sargent will today inform- Sweeney tbat, while. he assumes tbe switcbmvn's cause to be just, and while they have bis sympathy, he will not call an insolated strike of fireman in tbis locality, but it tbe time comes when labor most assert itself and the other alhed orders will come out, be is willing to place bis men in tbe same column. Briefly, tben, the strike, if it comes,mU8t be one involving tbe Brother hood of Locomotive Engineers. Brother hood of Railway Traimen, Brotherhood of Railway Conductors, and Brotherhood of Railway Telegraphers. Vice President Webb, of tbe Central, said tbis morning be bad not yet made aoswer to tbe proposition ot sheriff Berk to swear in as deputy sheriffs all the oon union switchmen employed on the Cen tral. To tbe Associated Press, Frank P. Strgent, grand master of the Locomotive f iremen, this morning said, in emphatic language: "if X order a strike ot tire men, it will be in conjunction with tbe orotberboods of Locomotive Engineers, Railway Trainmen, Railway Conductor and Railway Telegraphers'- Tbere will be np strike of tbe firemen alone." j Governor Flower Speaks. Watebtown, N. Y., Aug.E2. loan interview witb a representative of tbe United -Press, previous to his fleparture from Albany, Governor Flowek said in reference to tbe criticism tbat bave been made on bis action in sending so many troops to tbe scene of tbe strike: "Have you a brother amoog tbe unlitm at Buffalo) If yon bave, vou will know bow to answer it. Tbe militia of tbe state of New York is composed of active, intelligent voong men, coming from prosperous homes and shops and business place. I bey devote toeir energy, and relinquish a part of tbeir liberty in tbe service ot the state tor protection in just such emergencies as tbe present one. When tbe state calls on tbem tor service that bas an element of danger, the state is bonnd to use every means at its com mand to minimize that danger as far as possible. Certainly it would be an out rage to place these young men in a peril ous position to long as it is possible to avoid it. When the proper authorities at uurtaio informed me that 2UUU militia men of tbat locality were trying to pro tect property so vast that it was neces sary to place every man in constant daoger, and when asked tor more troops to lessen tbis danger to lives as well as protect tbe property, tbe state coold do no less than to send enough troops to prevent Dioodsbed. it was due to the strikers, as well as lo tbe militia and tbe owners of property in question, tbat we gave ample protection to all; for tbe strikers are not the ones from whom serious trouble is feared; tbat comes from tbe lawless element, the 'bangers oo' who ib variably gather at sucb places, and find pleasure in stirring up a ntrike and caus ing wreck and ruin; In' a city like Buffalo tbis element numbers many tboutaods. I am sure the good people of tbe state find no lault because the exec utive bas granted tbe request for suffi.- cient troops to prevent tbis law-breaking crowd from - committing any act that might lead lo further trouble." , 31 ee tins: With a Cheek.

An Exciting Voyage. ' Wenatchee Graphic. Probably no otber river of tbe United States Is more difficult of navigation than tbe Columbia, and no boat makes a more perilous voyage than the City of Ellens burgh, wbicb navigates tbe river betreen Weoatcbee and tbe mouth of tbe Okano gan, a distance of about ' one hundred miles. On tbe up trip tbe Methow and Cbelan rapids are passed only by attach ing a line, and none but a first class pilot, perfectly fsmiliar witb tbe river, could avoid tbe" nnmerous rocks and reefs, and guide tbe staupcb boat over the multitude of small rapid which must be passed on the adventurous jour ney. , From beginning to end tbe trip Is full of interest snd excitement, tbe sturdy steamer bugging first one bank and tben tbe otber, now gliding into tbe smooth waters of an eddy and in another moment figbdng its -way, inch by men, over a minature cataract. Io going op tbe rrver a speed of four or bve miles is all tbat can be attained, but on the return trip the scene changes and tbe slow, plodding steamboat of the up-tnp be comes a racing grey bound that leaps through tbe treacherous rapids at the re markable speed of twenty five miles an hour, thus distancing tbe fastest ocean steamer, or any man of war Uncle Sam bas got. Tbe Maid of th Mist, io tbe Whirlpool rapids under tbe falls of Nisgara, has no more wonders to perform tban does the City of EUensburg on its trip from Wenatchee to tbe bead of navi gation and return, yet, witbal, tbe four-. ny is a ssfe one, no accident ever hap pening to tbis one solitary steamer which plies tbe waters of t-be Colombia through tbis portion of the state of Washington.

From Saturday's Dally. y Daring these' daye, when Item are scarce, it is interesting to listen to the ex perience of pioneers, who cam to Oregon in early days. Such was oar privilege this morning, and Justio Scbntz, who now wears tb judicial ermine, waa at the month of the Columbia in 1853, as fin mat of a bark from New York. The destination waa St, Helena, where was located a aaw mill, and the craft was to load lumber. For twenty-one day the. captain kept outside the bar, afraid to enter the river, and no pilot ahowed himself, although th flag was hoisted daily. Dnnng all this time aa Oregon mist fell, and from tbe captain to the cook all were disgusted with th cli mate. ' The helm wa changed, and the bark tailed for anoiher port to receive her cargo. Mr. Edwin Crate, 8r wa present during t conversation, and whan the year waa mentioned said bs waa her long before that, for ha made tb over land trip io 1837. and landed at The Dalles, then an Indian village, in th fall of that year. At that time there wa no Portland, no Oregon City, and Fort Vancouver waa being built. There are many pages of unwritten history in tbe recollection ot those old state-boulders, who came to this far-away country across the plain, and soffered privations and hardship to plant American civiliza tion in thia distant part ot the United Stales tbs sdfwsa thmle at that tins of the re pa bua.
