Soldiers were on duty day and night guarding the Cliff from being iorn away by the miners, who were only too eager to get at the rich pay streak, which was already un- covered for a width of several hundred feet. - Under the condition of suspension of work the miners were allowed to work their dumps, which were pretty nearly completed this week. This having been done, the miners had a eonsuitation and determined to defy Uncle San and return 1o work. The soldiers were all mustered out on the beach, and with bayonets fixed attempted to force the men to leave, but not a man stirred. A parley ensued, with the resuit that thirty or forty miners sub- mitted to arrest and were put under guards.

Church, was seen in this eity at about 7 o’clock this morning. Early this morning a man cailed at the residence of State Prison Director J. P. Wilkins and asked the servants for some- thing to eat. He was covered with dust and seemed very much fatigued. When he came to the house he carried a small stick, which he used as a cane. He affected to be very lame until he left the premis when he dis- carded his stick and walked away with only a slight limp. The women who saw the man are positive that he answers the deseription of King. When shown King’s photograph the women were positive that it was that of their morning caller. Miss Sarah Hunter and Mrs. Hannah M were interviewed by the authorities, who aré now making every effort the man. It is possible that King in his flight doubled back th county and has thus been able to elude the officers who are searc noma and Mendocino counties.
