KANSAS TROOPS UNDER ARMS Eleven Oompanies of Kansas Militia Ready | to Marchon Weir Oity, ALL DISORDER WILL BE SUPPRESSED Governor Leweslling Servas Notlos on All Partios to the Strike that the Law Mast Be Respected—Imported Neffro Miners Arrive. Torexa, July 25.—The strike situation in the Cherokoo district is rogarded as so seri- ous by Governor Lewelling and his ad vis0rs that eloven companies of militia have been ordered to hold themselves in readiness to move on threo hours' notice. The orders wero telegraphed by Adjutant General Artz, by direction of Lioutenant Governor Daniels, who is tho major gencral of the Kansas militia, after a conference of threo hours with Governor Lewelling. The lioutenant governor arrived from the scenc of the strike carly last evening and was im mediately closeted with Governor Lewell ing, to whom he made a full report of the situation as he viewed it. The governor de- cided that troops would probably be needed and turned the command over to Major Gon- eral Daniels, with instructions to act as his judgment might direct. Accordingly Gen- eral Daniels issued tho orders placing the oleven companies under arms. By noon word had been received from the captains of all the companies included in the order that their men were vnder arms and ready for the march. Lewelling Keeping Posted. Governor Lewelling, in order to be more fully advised and to 'be posted events progressed, last night sont F. J. Close, his private secretary, t6 Weir City with orders to report from time to time by tele- graph. Lioutenant Governor Daniels stated this morning that he regarded the situation as very eritical and that it might break out atany time into violence and bloodshed. He hopes taat Sheriff Arnold will b ablo to preserve order with his force of armed dep- uties, but they are so few, compared with tho strikers, that it would be an unequal con- testshould the two forces come togethe: Licutenant Governor Daniels submitted his report in writing to the gov- ernor tomght. He rohearses the difforences betwoen the miners and operators which caused the strike and says that the dispute now hinges on a_difference without a distinction. ‘The miners say they are willing to zo back to work at the price per ton regulated by the pay they were get- ting before the chango in the screen law. The operators say they are willing to pay tho same price per ton thiat they were paying be- fore the change in the law. Lieutenant Gov- ernor Daniels says this difference ought to be arbitrated without difficulty and recom- mends that the governor take steps to bring about arbitration. Warns All Parties to the Strike. Continuing, the report says: “At samo time, a3 the situation there is so criti- calas to render a_conflict involving serious consequences liable at any moment, T would suggest that a proclamation be made to no- tify all parties that the state administration will not_condone the violation by law by either side; that the sheriffs are expected to protect all interests as required by law and their oaths; and whenever the forces at their immediate command are not ample for the purpose the state authoritios are ready to respond immediately to their call for aid.” Tho roport discourses upon labor troubles 1n general and says they are due to vicious legislation, inspired by capital and against labor, and concludes as follows: *But the methods by which these wrongs must be righted, by which labor must be restored to its constitutional rights and to its God- given position, must be by constitutional ones, or our institutions are not only ready to erumble, but republican governments in the world, for the present, at least, are doomed.’ Negroes from Alabama Put to Work. Wein CiTy, July 25.—Just before daybreak this morning a train of six cars was backed into thé enclosure around shaft No. 8, of the rry mine near Scammon, and 347 negroes from Al ma and Colorado were unloaded inside the stockude. Of theso sixty-seven were women. All but sixty of the men were from Alabama, having been gathered at Birmingham Saturday night. Those from Colorado claim to bo furnaco men who know little or nothing about mining. Many of them claim to have como on the representations of the operators that they were to work at Columbus and not in the strike pitsand they talk of leaving. Thero wero over 500 men and women on the train from Bivmingham, but half of them went to Litehfield, whero 'they wero tuken 1nto the stockades of the Kansas and Texas coal compar All of the Alabama nogroes are armed— most of them with new Winchester rifles, though some have army muskots. They are of all ages and somo have never worked in mines before. Here they will live in tents within the stoc At noon thoy wero drilled and put w work. Came a8 a Surprise to tho Miners, Tho arrival of the necroes surprised many of the miners, but thoy say very little, D, H. O'Donnell,who acts for President Walters in'his absence, says there will be no trouble, Sheriff Arvold has 100 deputies in and around Woir City. A secret meeting was held at noon by the miners. About 200 attended. O'Donnell asserts positively that all tho Missouri miners will go out August L. No action of importance was decided upon, Among the negroes at Litchfleld a great deal of dissatisfaction is prevalent, and if they could get back to their southern nomes they would start at cnce. Soveral of them who brought thoir families are without money and are forced to work. Most of them are of the ignorant, superstitious cluss, who take most overything for a bad sign, The men at Litchileld are quiet and not much trouble is expected Action Agalusi One of the Strike Leaders, Fonr Scorr, Kan., July 25.—Deputy United States Marshal Hurlburt of this city last night served a writ of commitment upon M. L. Walter, the leader of the striking miners, charging him with violating the in- junction of the United States court by mak- ing tho incendiary spoech roported Satur- day. Walters was at Rich Hill when the writ was served. He was not locked up, but ordered to appear before the court in- Chi- Cugo next week. A small’ bus apprec colored people listened to the lecture de- livered by Mrs. M. Rodgers Webb at Hartman hall last night. Rev. Parks introduced the lecturer, who is a native Jamaican. Contrary to the im- pression sought to bo conveyed by another paper the lady is decidedly of fair cotaploxion with a countenance that denotes character, Sho has none of the alleged masculine look about her. Bornon the island where the sun never seems to set, 4s sho explained it, her fathor was an English gentleman and what little blood of the colored race she has in her veins comes to her from her mother's side in the sixth generation, She pronounced the description of her Sun- day lecture 1n that paper au_ insult to her sex. Forten years sho has labored in the cause of tha colored people in this country and is now married to a Phuladelphian, but never has she met with any greater affront than the oue mentioned, cxcept in Arkausas. Her lecture last eveniog was a very in- structive one, dealing as it did, with her native country as to location, geological for- mation, surface descripion, peculiaritios, history of the maroons and governmental manhood aroused in the slaves, immigration, St. Thomas and the east: riots, religious efforts, educational institutious, garden and agricultural interests, land values and gen. eral information on the subject. the obje being to introduce Jamaica as a summer home in the winter to those dislikiug the cold blast of & more rigorous climate and to induce immigrants to seek homes there. e Fostofiice Business.
