Hendricks Telographs Mr, Joy to Order His Mon to Desist. The Latter Will Be on the Ground This Morning. A Company of Militia Ordered from Indianapolls, Though the Circmt Court of Porter County, Ind., as woll as tho Unitod Btates Cirouit Court, bave decided that the Michigan Central Ratlroad should allow tho Daltimora & Ohio Railrond to cross its track noar Lako Station, atill that Com- pany rofuses {o abide by the decisionas of tho Courts, and bids defiance to its mandates and oflicors. To provent tho Baltimoro & Ohio from croseing its track, it bas taken the law fu its own hands, and placed all kinds of obstructious in tho way, and Btationed thore an army of men to watch day and night that no conp d'efat is attompted by tho Balti- more & Obio, Tho Inttor rond hns thus far ncted entircly on the dofensive, bolieving that after tho deolsions of tho courts wero given the opposition to their crossing would coase. AFTED THE LAST DECISION by Judge Dramamond tho Solicitor of tho Balti- more & Ohio requestod Dr. Gardnor, tho Cbief Eugiucer of tho Michigan Central, to namo time and day whon it would bo moet convenient to his rond for tha crorsings to bo made. Tho an- wwer wag that they should prevent the crossings by forco, aud in no eveut permit it. Thereforo tho ofticers of tha Baltimore & Obio, having ar- rived at that poiut whote patience ceases to bea vieue, OALLED UTON TUE BIERITF of Porter County, Indiana, to aid them in mak- ing the crossing. Yesterday morving about 6 o'clocl tho attorueys for tho Baltimore & Ohtlo, Judgo Cowan, of Ballimore, Judge Anthony and ex-Gov. Buaker, of Valparaiso, aud Mr. Joues, of Valparaigo, Jamer ITumshiio, Jamos L. Ran- dolph, Chief Engineer, James Walah, General Agent, and u construction corps of about fifty men, togoiher with Robert B. Jones, Sherift of Porter County, Harvey Patrick, Doputy, auda posse of bwentv citizens, went to the place where tho crossing is to be made. On arriving thero thoy found upon tho ground o forco of about 800 mon placed there by the Michigan Central, to opposo tho crossing by tho Baltimore & Ohto, There were also standing upou the main track of the Michigan Contral, just across tho right of way, TUNEE CONGTRUCTION TRAINS, To altow tho reqular trnins to pass, a eide-tracl on the north side of tho miain track had bLoon coustructed. Barricades of tios, rails, und wood bad boen placed on each side of tha crosslug be- tweon tho main track and the fenco, and each barricado was menned by & nunibor of mon ready to annibilate any nue who should touch the pile, Ay an additional precaution DEEP DITCHES on eithor side had also been dug, and inside the ditches camp-fires wera Lrightly burning, with numbers of men aronnd them. Judge Cowan, tho Solicitor of the Baltimore & Ohlo, askod the men under whose ordors thoy woro acting, and thoy answered undor the orders of Chief-Engincor Gardner. Not finding Mr. Gnidner on tho ground, the oflicers of tho Bal- tinore & Olio, in the presonce of tho Sheriff nnd his posse of citizons of tho county, climbed the fence, and endeavored to storm the barri- cades, But iv a momout the army of the Michi- gan Central was upon thomw, aud the attacking party wos COMPELLED TO FALL BACK considorably demorshized without having ob- tnined possession of the track, This attempt to tako possession of the croering was not mnde until tho Solicitor af tho Baltimore & Ohio had publicly nunounced that thoy came in tho name of tho Company, and after the Court had de- tided they ehould cross, It was also announced that tho Sheriff was presont to put the Company in poescssion undor o wrlt issued by the Circuit Comt of Foster County, Tho writ was read to tho crowd, and attentively listened to, and then oxplained by the Solivitor, who etated that to re- sist tho writ was a criminal offenee, and punish- ablo,by a fino of §5,000 and six months in the ponitentiary. TIE SAERITE AND 18 FOSSE then endoavored to take possession of the orogs- ing, but they were aléo routed, and forced to a precipitato retreat. Tho Solieitor again begged the men to disperse and allow the law to {ake its cowse, or elko thoy would be prosccuted for riot, rout, forcible "detniner, obstructing legal procoss, and other offenes, Iorribloand long s this list of crimes is, tho mon did nol care a gnap for the penalties, not budging an inch from their position, cluiming thac they had been phiced there by their suporiore, and all thoy had to do was to abey. The Sheriff then ATTENPIED TO ARREST THF LEADERS of tho army of occupation, snd tako thom bo- foro tho nearest Justice, to be dealt with accord- iug tolaw, but ho was not allowed to lay hands upon any of thom, The next step was tho procurement of wai- runts for o numbor of the men, and aftorward an uttompt was made to serve them, but this was/ agnin provented by forco, aud legal process ob- struotod, — While the warrunts were being read, the crowd hooted and yelled, tho onginos whistlod, and putfed, and shrioked, oreating el uw upronr as to drown the words of the svcrnnn ronding the writs, Tho Assistant tondinaster.
