Va.,says: At the conference of citizens and str kers with Mr Keyser Surday night it was agreed that trains thould be started yesterday, but when an effort was made to siart them ye terday morning the crews would not go out. Sey- eral hours of conference followed, resulting in @ failure of agr-ement between the rali- road and the bk aders of the strikers. {1 is nn- derstood fui] crews are oo the way froin Bal- tmore to take trains west, and fall tram: will be opened vp this morning. All east bound trates have been started ou their way from Keyser. STRIKERS WHO STICK. ispatch * tthe Baltimore Sunare he tr bands of the Balu- and Ohio rail ad e-gaged in the sirike ved word on Sunday to oe lo the company at Riversice for work Monday, or quit to the service. The majority of the hands drew their allowawee for time and left the tervice of toe company, though it was tad that one or two of the leaders of the strike had net come forward and shown what their action would be. A few of the strikers reported for duty, aud other men Were [reely offering to take service with the company, 80 that there was no difficulty in proc: @ greater pntuber than were sult cient io mau all the trains which were to be Started. It appears that many men who bave been for some time past oit of empto; of the company have taken the opportt Of the dissutisfact.on of the strikers to themselves reinstated. The majority men who bave left the company are tire bat from twenty-eight to th ry elected to be paid oi and disetiarged. 7 majority of the conductors reported tor duty. Several firemen al-o reported, and some them were promoted and given engines. When men had been obtained more than sufficient to run the traius the surplus were sent up to Keyser, as stated. Que eugia: who reported for duty was told that th ¥4s,L0 engine forhim, and he wentoat « fireman. It is understood that the actor of the met in taking their time and being discharged was in consequence of resolu- tions parsed ai the meeting of the strikers lu South Baltimore Sunday night. but the ac- tion seems to have been anticrpated and provided s gatust by the eompany. JHE BMBAKGO WEST OF KEYSER CON- TINTES Ten freight trains which left Keyser and three trem Cumberland arrived safeiy at Martinsburg last evening. Four trains east trom Parkersburg and two from Grafton ar- rived at Keyser, and six trains from Grafton west arrived ut Parkersburg. No tratas were run over the Wheeling division, aud the em- bargo on trains west from Keyser still con- tinued last night. Twelve trains from Mar- tinsburg came in to Riverside during the evening. They were loaded with eval ofl, coal, tion and miscellaneous merchandise. One large car contained a number of re The trains which left Baluimore were guard- ed by a detail of 85 U S. marines from Wash ir gton, distributed through the different sec. tons, u: der commauad of Captain Bishopand Lieutenauts Porter and B:ddle. They will exchange with the guards of east bound tra’ns at Martinsburg, and return to Bulti- niore, AFFAIRS AT CUMBERLAND Were still in an unsettled state yesterday af tervoon, and no trains were sent west from that point. The miners at Blaen Avon, At- lantic and Maryland mines went to wors yesiertay morning, but the men from Hoff maw Hollow went over in a body and com pelled them to stop work and leave the When the news was received in limore Gen. Barry detailed companies I 3 M, of the sd U.

No lands, however, could be found to man a train for the west, as they feared trouble along the mouutain division, which begins at Keyser. AERIVAL OF TRAINS AT PIEDMONT. A special to the Baltimore Sun trom Pied- mont, West Virginia, July #1, 1a. m., says: The two freight trains from Grafton have safely arrived here at this hour, and are avout leaving for Keyser, virtually breaking the blockade. Mr. Keyser says ihe moun- tain division lays open for traffic tne entire Ine of the Baltimore and Ohio railroad from the Ohio to the seaboard. These are the firet freight trains which have crossed the mountain region in two weeks. The troop train, two batteries of artillery, Major Rawls, escorted the freights in the rear from Deer Park, leaving there about 11 p.m. A detachment of ‘hirteen soldiers was placed on the first freight twenty soldiers on the second, @ guard being stationed on each end. The tance from Deer Park was made slowly and cautiously on account of running at night. The passage of these trains, it is believed, will convince the strikers that that the road is now practically open, and it would be useless on their part to bold out further. | Camberland (Md) Strikers. A CANAL BOAT BURNT BY MASKED MEN. Ou Saturday three steam canal boats, be longing to Weld & Sheridan, left Camber- Jand ,joaded by Ure Mary!and Coal Company, for Georgetown, cents per ton freight, which is 10 cents less tuan deinaaded by the striking boatmen now biockating the canal at Sir John’s run. Sunday night one boat, Siar No. 3, was tied up fourteen miles from the blockade for the bigot. At 12 o'clock it was boarded by @ party of twenty-five masked men. who ordered the crew off and &«t fire to the boal, part of which burned aud the rest sunk. Deputy Sheriff Oitatt, with a posse of fifteen, left Cumberland yesterday to protect the otber two boats in the limits of the county said to be threatened. Several of the Cumberland miners strack yesterday for an increase of wages from fifty to sixty five cents per fon. Others refused to work watil they could see what the mass meeting at Lonaconing to-day will do, Still other miners were comp*lled to stop work by those whe had struck. Tke whole region is in a feverish coudition, and it looked last night as if @ general strike would take place to-day. Roads ING AS USUAL On the Pennsylvania road stock trains are being moved as rapidly as they can b+ gotten in readiness, and the trains which have been delayed along the line are arriving. The first three trains sent out on this road were under military guard, but no trouble having occurred the trains are pow ranuing without uards. The company is not receiving ights for shipment yet, but this is owing to the fact that the tracks over the barat dis trict in Pittsburg are not yet com pleted, and will thus delay local freightsa day or two. On the Pittsburg, Fort Wayne aud Chicago road the efforts are mainly directed to the clearing of the tracks of rpiling stock, which is strung at the line of the road for fifteen miles below Pittsburg, and having the city freights delivered. Allthe workmen in the on this road resumed work yesterday. On both the Pennsylvania and Fort Wayne roads the officers Lave notified the enginesrs and Gremen tat they can have their old en- gines if the: renort for duty at oace. The opening of the blockade on the Fort Wayne road will open the Cleveland Pittsburg and Pitsburg and Frie to business. Oa the Alleghany Valley road the passenger laine are arriving and de} ing on time, and it is expected that freights will be started today. The Pitisburg. Clocinnati and Si. Louis , Paa Handle route, are running trains as usual. THE FIRING UPON THE MOB AT READING. General Frank Reeder, in reply to Coroaer Geodhart, of Reading, in regard to the firing on the mob by the militia uader his com- mand, says that no person ord him to fire, nor did he fire por direct any other per- son te fre upon the crowd. He was ordered to release a train from the rioters, aud tre proceeded in the direction of the scene by a cut, and the way the firing came about was as follows: “I m: command in the direction of the cut, but re reach’ ‘we were met by a large body of me! be gestures, coarse fi , Unspo! ropriety of a the load: The’ Pieces and moving the musicians to th by the crowd with a volley” on po hring « abot oF a word in rep! to which us, ut of the command, constantly cautioned ihe men not to fire, notwithstanding the fect that every step was being marked by tne blocd of the men, and that many of the oops bad been knocked down by the flying stones. Near the second bridge a single shot flied without orders was the signal for a dropping fire, whieh, while doing [little or no damage to the mod of rigters, served to check the fat-falling shower of stones. Pressing on, the comma:d reached Pen street, and was there confronted by @ large crowd ad rsons, who met us by hurling Stones and firing pistols at the regiment, which were coly stopped by what I bave sirce learned was a very effective voliey, which entirely dispersed them.
