CHICAGO, ~July 7.—The day opened

threateningly, and cminous signs were

visible everywhere in Chicago. At an
early hour the mobs began to assemble
about the junction points of the railways,
and before 9 o’clock it was evident that a
, great‘battle for supremacy was on. Mayor
Hopkins telegraphed hastily to the gov»
ernor, asking for five regiments of militia
to aid him in preserving the peace. Thou-
sands of people gathered 'at Kensington,
near Pullman, and the junction point of
the Michigan Central and Illinois Central
lines. There were no troops there, but
the track was guarded by a small company
of United. States marshals. Very soon a
milk train arrived on its way to Chicago,
and this was the signal for hostilities to
begin. The mob began an assault and
were met with great vigor by the mar-
shals, who instantly began firing. \Two of
the rioters were killed outright and a num-
ber wounded. A mad frenzy seized the
people, and they rushed in, seized the
milk train and began tipping the cars
over. They then detached the engine, ran
ltpdown the track half a mile, stopped it,
opened the throttle wide and drove it back
into the mass, overturning freight cars,
scattering the debris far and wide and
rendering the track impassable in any di-
rection. A frantic appeal was sent at once
to Chicago for assistance, and the troops
were dispatched to the scene. "

At Burnside, a station three miles near
or Chicago, 50 empty freight cars wore
standing upon the track. The mob set
fire to these, and they were all practically
destroyed.

Very few of the south bound roads at-_'
tempted to dispatch trains and Were wait-
ing anxiously for developments, while the
majority of the United States troops were
calmly rest-ing in camp on the lakefront,
waiting for the arrival of additional troops
from Fort Brady and Fort Lafayette.
These came in about 11 o’clock and
marched to the lake front and went into
camp.

Evidences today of the work of the mob
at the stoekyards yesterday and'last night
were visible everywhere. In the railroad
yards, cars lay on their sides and tops.
0n nearly every spur and siding on the
I main lines of the Rock , Island, Fort

Wayne and Lake Shore roads smoking
embers showed that the mob had not been
content with detailing cars. From State
to Halstead and Thirty-fifth to Forty-
third streets 3 network of railway tracks
was strewn with dismantled cars, wrecked
switchmen’s shanties, railroad ties and
other obstructions. The tall signal tower
at Fortieth street and the Rock Island
tracks was about the only thing left.
The police managed to defend that against
the mob. Tho mob made threats this
morningthat they would burn every rail-
roadshop in'the city, the cars and all the
property of; the companies if the officials
should-tryto move the trains without their
help. As early as 7 o’clock men began to
gather about the railroad tracks. The
crowds were thickest about the derailed
cars, and every token of railroad loss was
gloated over with genuine enjoyment.
Many who partici ated in the destruction
of the property to d how it was done and
were applauded by the crowd who lis-
tened. ,'
StoningBalt-lmore and Ohio Trains.

A large body Of strikers is at the cross-
ing of the B. and O. with the Rock Island
road. They are‘stdning all trains. Ono
bound into Chicago was seriously stoned,
and the engineer and fireman on the sec-
ond section of another were so intimidated
that they refused to move the train into
Chicago.

Between midnight and morning the
ricters at the stockyards continued their
attempt at destruction of railway proper-
ty. Several freight cars were fired. but no
serious damage was done. About mid-
night the rioters cut the electric light
wires near Forty-seventh street, plugged

-the fire alarm box and did everything pos-

sible to impede the work of the. depart-'

ment. While working over one fire at
Forty-ninthstreet the fi remen were stoned,
but not injured. ‘ Patrolman Burke went
to the police box tocall 'the officers and
was shot at; .

with general freight on the Wabash tracks

.

General Miles said today that the. mo-
bilization of federal troops on the lake front
was prompted by a belief that their pres-

. was necessary. The idea was to forestall
a concerted movement on the part of strik-
ers against prominent down town build:
ings. .
The Rock Island officials today closed
all their offices and locked them up. All

as United States deputies.

Fort Wayne were sent through the dis-
trict between Forty—fifth and. Fifty-fifth
streets, wherethe blockade existed yester-
day. During the night the freight :cars
that had been dumped on the tracks were
removed, and the' trains. were sent out
’Without trouble. _ j

Part of the mob charged a gang of work-
men engaged in icingmeat cars at Forty-
fifth street under; supervision of Alderman
Carey. He showed the men a permit

and the rioters left.

and sent out where most needed.

One of the most serious aspects of the

strike from city ofilcials’ standpoint is
that horses are dying at the rate of from
75 to 100 a day, and there is no way of re-
moving them from the city. For days .a
tralnload of these carcasses has stood at
Thirty-eighth street on the Michigan
Southern tracks consigned to the Panhan-
dle road, which is to carry them to the es:
tablishment of the Union Rendering com-
pany. The carcasses are festering in the
sun, and the health of the ccmmunity is
seriOusly threatened. , - The same is true in
other places where’these carcasses areleft,
because the city cannot remove'them‘. .

Captain McGunnigle, Company I". Fif-

into the city with his command from
Grand Crossing today, said: “This afiair
has ceased to be a more lot of skirmishes,
and from today on it is in my opinion a
campaign. I apprehend that the time for

ness-of war now. ”
Governor Altgeld has ordered out the

tie, cemmande'd by Brigadier Generals
Wheeler and fiWelch, to disperse a mob
which Was overturning Alton cars at the
Union depot this afternoon and to be sent
to sage points as may be necessary.

The conference of labor leaders called by
President Debs today was attended by
representatives from every union in the
city. The tone of the talk was strongly
in favor of supporting the present strike.

It is learned that a committee of three
was appointed with full power to act in
the matter of calling out labor organiza-
tions. Meetings of all the labor unions in
the city will be held on Sunday night next
to ratify the action of the conference.

General Miles' Position.

When asked for a. statement of the situa-

States army, General Nelson A. Miles to-
day said: “If the order of Mayor Hopkins
be no further trouble. It is a plain and
press all rioting, disperse all lmobs and to
stop the destruction of property. If . the
police do this, and I -believe they Can,
.there will be no further trouble anywhere
in the city. ”

“Do you anticipate that this order will
be carried out?”

“Most certainly. I believe that not
only has Mayor Hopkins taken the right
step, but he will be obeyed, and the police
will use all their power toquiet these dis-
turbances. We are certainly not doing
police duty for the city of Chicago, and
until the police fail we cannot be expect-
ed to disperse these mobs except when we
come in contact with them in protecting
moving trains.

Our action now depends. on the rail-
roads, and our troops are here to protect
their trains, and when they are ready to
move them we are ready to protect them. ”

' Available Regulars In California.
. SAN FRANCISCO, July 7.——In case Presi-
dent Cleveland should call on the federal
troops to quell the riot at Sacramento he
will have about 1,000 soldiers in Califor-
nia at his command.

These comprise four troops of cavalry,
nine batteries of artillery and eleven com-
panies of infantry. '

The present location of these troops is
as follows: At San Francisco and imme-
diate vicinity, nine batteries of artillery
and two companies of infantry; .at Los
Angeles, six companies of infhntry; at
.Benecia, two companies of infantry; at
Sequoia National park. one troop of cav-
alry; at Yosemite park, one troop of caval-
ry; at Gilroy, two troops of cavalry; at
Diego, one company of infantry. .

y The strikers at the Oakland yards and
along the mole and on the narrow gauge
lines effectually maintain the blockade on
all lines running down the mole. Wher-
ever the strikers find a «live engine they
promptly take possession of. it, rake the
fires, blow off the steam and leave it on
the tracks. There were no acts of violence

The‘uBig Four" Tied Up.
CLEVELAND, July 7.-—The Big Four men

Went outtoday, andthat road is now tied
up completely so far as can be ascertained.

- The members of the A. R. U. were in sea--
'sionall' night, and it is reported that it
. was decided to tie up all the roads running _
into this city'at once. Committees have ‘
been sent out to notify crews in the Lake,

Shore, Nickel-Plate, .Erie and other“ rail-
way yards of the action of the meeting.

then said they would not even "couple up

their own cabooses to trains that mightbe

made up. In other words,-they would per
form none of the duties of the striking
switchm'en. _ . ~ ..

- A BLOCKADE THREATENED.

By ‘9 o'clock the sWitchmen in the Erie
yards, had been notified of Ithegstrike order
and promptly deserted [their posts. Pas—
senger trains at that hour were still going
and coming, but as in the case of other
roads freight trains which were left stand-
ing on the main track threatened to block-
ade all traffic in a short time. _

The "Valley ,( B. and 0.7) switchmcn also
went'out early Inljthe day, and the yards
of that, road are practically dead. The
Nickel Plate men have not ceased work, and
the yardmnster,‘ said that work ,in the
yards was prog'res'sing as usual. , It. was
evident, hOWever,Zthat owing .to the‘large
territory covered by the TNickel" Plfat'e
yards the notification ‘coinmittee liad‘not
succeeded in, gettingword to a great ma-
jority of the switchmen employed by that
company, and hence they had not quit.

Every road leading into- the city, with
the single orccptionoof the Nickel, Plate,
has felt the e'fi’ect 'of the strike, and-freight
traffic on all lines was more or less con-

gested, and. the suspension of passenger“_

troduoed and Referred. . p . . ,
WASHINGTON, July 7.—Tho attention of
members of the heuse has been attracted
by the railroad strikes .to schemes for ur-
bitration of labor difliculties. 'Two plans
have been forniulat'ed into bills by Repre—
sentatives Kiefer and Tawney oflMinneso-
ta and have been (referred by the'house
committee on, labor toa subcommittee of
five, of which . Representative Erdman of
Pennsylvania is chairman. ‘
Representative Kiefer’s plan contem-
plates a permanent board for the settle-

pl‘oyees and'employers and to prevent hos-
tilities pending the settlement of ques-
tions. There would be a permanent board
of faur member’s,~ three of‘them appointed
by the president, the United States com-
missioner of labor being the fourth, while
the- governor of , the state in which the
trouble occurred would make a fifth mem-
ber. . Whenever both parties agree to arbi-
"tration‘ the governor would be empowered
to call a meeting of p the board upon their
application, but it also would be his duty
to start the machinery of arbitration, on
the application of one party if it seemed to
him that the public interests demanded it,
The findings of the board would have the
effect of decrees of about. If any employ-
er who did not apply for arbitration re-
fuses to accept the decision, he would be
enjoined from employing other employees
_ until he could show satisfactory cause to-
the board. Labor unions are recognized
by the bill as having the right to become a
party to an arbitration proceeding.
Representative Kiefer considers the
most salutary featured the plan that it
would keep men at Work pending the set-
tlement of disputes and prevent such dis-
turbances'as the country is now undergo-
ing. ' . - -' .
Representative .Tawney’s bill is more
limited in its scope, providing for settle-
ment of the controversies between railroad
corporations doing an interstate com-
merce business or carrying mails or prop-
erty of the ,United States or doing business

‘bia. Arbitration would be secured by pe-
tition to a circuit court of the United
States by one or both parties to‘ the trou-
ble on the application of 10 reputable citi-
zens. ~ The court would be empowered to
compel _ the parties to appear and to make
decrees‘ governing wages. However, if
either party objects to intrusting the de-
cision of their difficulties to a court, a
board or five arbitratorS. one to be selected
by, each party and three by the court,
would be constituted, and their findings
would be carriedout by decree of the court.
