STEWART, ROBERT McDIVITT, Chairman Secretary. THE DEADLY CONFLICT. The last seven days have been big with fate. Scarcely a week ago to day the mighty railroad ccrporations of the land, conscious of iheir power, commanded their employ ees and they obeyed with alacrity. A few brave men, at Martinsburg, Virginia, de murred to the reduction in wages and resolved to insist upon being heard. With railroads tle right to petition has general ly ended in the prompt discharge of the petitioners. They knew this well, and they resorted to the only means left. They stopped the trains and the lordly officials called in the Government to help them in their weakness. The cloud that was scarce ly a speck upon the horizon soon began to overshadow the entire heavens, and from New York to St. Louis th. 3 air was filled with the imprecations of the railroad cfficial, L:ld the low sullen defiance et the employee. The men who have been ground down, from year to year, until forbearance ceased to be a virtue, were sullenly and determin edly resolving to submit to no further im pogitiou. Well they knew the railroad Power had entree hed itself behind the laws of the country, : , nd the first hand raised against it would antagonize the State, but they must either "strike" or forsake their manhood. On Thursday morning la-t, a few deter_ mined men refused to take out their trains from Pittsburgh, and the strike on the Pennsylvania Railroad had commenced ! No one supposed that they could paralyze the great Pennsylvania Railroad and hold it in a grip, Ilk that of a vise, for days together, but they did . it. Their numbers augmented every hour ; the handful of Thursday =iecaate the hundreds of Friday morning, and by Friday evening they could be numbered by the thousand, and by Sat. arday morning they wore prepared to over whelm all the military force sent against them. Such an uprising was never pre viously beheld, on a like occasion, in this country. It was no longer the strike of a few brakemen, but it assummed th , -, shape elf the people against the railroad—the masses against the monopoly. Nine out of every ten men sympathized with the strikers. Every business man, every me, ehanic and every laborer, only remember ing his grievances against the corporation, saw an opportunity to humiliate it and he swelled the crowd and cheered it on. The few brakemen who inaugurated the strike found themselves lost in the swelling, swel tering, swerving mass of humanity that had come to their rescue. They were no longer able to control it and many things were done in their name that they were ao wise responsible for. Train after train was dispatched, from different points east of Altoona, to aid the civil authorities in restoring order, but they were mere hand fuls of men as coMpared with the thous ands who were iu possession of the road. Collision after collision occurred. Inno cent blood was shed and the feeling was terribly intensified. Many of the military fraternized with the mob. Ordinarily cool men became wild with excitement. With it all came the cry fur bread. No wonder that the mob increased and that despera tion was apparent ou every visage. Under such circumstances it was the supremest folly—the filly begotten of mldness—for the railroad officials to hold out against the reasonable demands of their employees. This folly, this madness, has cost the com pany millions of dollars and the blame rests with its officials. - - EDITOR The writer of this artiek ha: ever seled against strikes. He has the most profound respect for law and order. The civil authorities, to him, must be obeyed. but in this instance his heart and his ar dent sympathies have gone out to favor of the men, in favor of those whose duties have been -arduous and whose compensa tions have not been commensurate. From year to year he has seen the gap widen between the respective classes—the offi cials and the laborers--who are employed upon the road. He has seen the former grow wealthy, live in luxury, and become imperious, while the latter have been re duced from living to starving rates and converted into mendicants. It has wade little difference to the lordly official that many of these pour but worthy men have spent the better part of their lives in the employ of the company. have married, purchased small homes and have large fam • illes about them, which cannot subsist on the miserable pittance that the over fed, sleek and arrogant officials would dole out to them. It is all well enough to say that if they do not wish to work at the wages that are offered to them they shall stand aside and make room for others who will. These men have a lien as it were on the road. Many of them have stood by it through all its ups and downs for years. They know nothing but railroading. They have a right by prescription. They have the right conceded to thew by humanity to insist upon sufficient to maintain them selves and those dependent upon them. Humanity has conceded this to the abso lute slave. It is a right above all the fran chises of corporations. But when it is re membered that it is one class of employees oppressing another the ease appears doubly strong. 'These men believe by the pecula tions and mismanagement of the official class that the road has been made non pay ing, and, that, while those who are res ponsible for the deficiencies, are living in palaces, sporting at the Summer resorts, pouring out money like water, frivolously, they are ground down and starved to make up the deficiencies. Whether these opin ions are well founded or not is another matter. They are universally believed. Such are the opinions at the bottom of the strike. Ai any of the men know too much and their knowledge does not go a begging. Back of the strikers stand the masses who have viewed the encroachments of the corporation with distrust and dissatis faction. The impositions which it has practiced, the disregard of individual rights, the enormous local tariffs for freight and passengers and the domineering of its offi cials all have had their effect. There are few, if any, along the line of works who do not claim to have some grievance, greater or less, against the corporation, and the result has been seen on every hand. The populace have uniformly sympathized with the strikers. This worse than suicidal policy of the officers of the railroad has cost the com pany millions of money, and by their mulishness they have given rise to a law lessness that beggars description. They have precipitated a conflict between labor and capital that may not be allayed for years. And asa consequence great problems, in the science of Government, have leaped to the front and insist upon an immediate solution. 'Where the matter is to end is past finding out. The lawlessnessivhich is born of it has destroyed hundreds of lives and millions of wealth. No language is strong enough to -condemn the horrible butchery and the wanton destruction of property. Every law abiding and order loving citizen depre cates and abhors such fruits but they are the legitimate results of mobocracy. Tie mob never reasons. It is blind to every sens , , of humanity. It. moved by impulse alone and its impulses are seldom, if ever, noble or generous. It demands an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth. De struction is its greatest passionits gov erning motive. Man, it is well known, when aroused exhibits all the passions of the wilds of the jungle. Ilis intelligence making him much more difficult to man age. This ought to have been apparent to the' officials who employ a half a million of men on the different roads under their control and they should have conciliated them. They heard the muttering's but de cided that they could overcome the threat_ ening storm as they had done many times before, and the first shock sent thew to the wall, and those who yesterday, in their pride and power thought themselves om nipotent., to-day lost all their reason and hastened a deluge that swept them away and lost them to the public view. The uprising, which has overturned them, is denounced as communism and all that sort of stuff. It is nothing more than a disposition, on the part of the masses, to chastise, what they term, "an insolent and over-bearing corporation." While we have no sympathy with this view of the case, we simply express the naked truth however unpalatable it may be. In the reorganization of the company we hope that the late experience will be care fully weighed, and at least another gener ation will pass away before there will be any necessity for even an orderly strike, to say - nothing, of violence and bloodshed. Let us hope that the railro'ds of the coun try have learned, by sad experience, that they cannot ignore private rights and ride rough shod over the people without being held to a strict accountability. THE Globe of this week contains the editorial bow of its new editor and pro prietor, Al. Tyhurst, esq. Tie has had considerable experience in the newspaper business, and we hope be may find this venture a paying investment. We extend to him a hearty welcome. JUDGE DEAN, on Tuesday last, delivered a lengthy charge to the Grand Jury, of Blair county, explaining the law relating to riots and laying down their duty in the premises. A RUMOR is current that all passenger trains will be taken off the P. R. R. should the strike continue a few days more. THE LABOR REVOLT! A BLOODY RIOT 111 BALTIMORE THE RAILROAD RIOTS SPREADING 1 PITTSBURGH RED WITH GORE! THE HOWLING MOB HOLD THE CITY! AT Ti THE GUN SHOPS GUTTED ! Millions of Dollars Worth of Railroad Property Destroyed. IiALTIMOKE, July 20.—T0-night all the in terest, in the Baltimort and Ohio Railrdad strike centres in Baltimore and Cumberland, Maryland. Governor Carroll came to Balti more this morning, and was ass.Ared of the grave state of affairs at Cumberland, where a mob had assembled and used abusive language towards two companies of the United States troops, commanded by Captain Litchfield, who remained in the cars. The troops had not been called to operate in Maryland, and were merely en route to Keyser, West Virginia, where it was expected they would be needed to quell an insurrection in that State. In Baltimore Governor Carroll was satisfied of the need of prompt action to preserve the peace of Maryland. He ascertained that the situa tion was very threatening at Cumberland, and did not believe the local authorities could preserve order. Be therefore issued a peo clatnation, calling on all citizens of Maryland to abstain from acts of lawlessness and to aid the lawful anthorities in the maintenance of peace and order. The Governor then gave orders that the Fifth Regiment (Maryland National Guard) should proceed at 9 o'clock under command of Brigadier General James R. Herbert, to embark for Cumberland, and that the Sixth Regiment, Colonel C. Peters, should he held in readiness for orders. The, commands had been notified on Wednesday that their might be need for their services, and the signal for assemblage at their armories was the City Hall alarm bell striking 1-5-1. THE ALARM SOUNDED The alarm was sounded at 6:30 P. M., and, with the soilders, it drew to the vicinity of the armories immense crowds of men, many of them with dinner buckets in hand coming from their work. The crowd was especially large at the Sixth Regiment armory, which is on the corner of Front and Fayette streets, opposite the shot tower. The Sixth Regiment is composed largely of workingmen. The crowd jeered and stoned the soldiers. Cheers were given for the strikers of the Baltimore laid Ohio Railroad Company, developing a great sympathy among the crowd, which grew greater every minute. Stones were thrown at the armory and nearly all the windows were broken. Finally, at about 8 o'clock, three companies of the regiment, numberieg 120 men, under Captain Tupper, of Company 8., attempted to move out of' the armory and were stoned in the vestibule by the crowd pressing over the side walks. The column issued forth again, and were again greeted with a shower of cobble-stones from the pave ment, which had been torn up in front of the armory. TUE SOLDISRS TIRE The soldiers fired ou the mob and the first volley killed one man . outright. Two other volleys were fired and the crowd scattered. One company went by way of Fayette street and the others by Front street to Baltimore street. The latter were followed by a crowd, usivg stones, and the attack continued on Baltimore street, all the way up on the road to the Cam den depot. The militia marched without music, at a very rapid pace, turning to fire right and left as they wen: assaulted with stones. Ten persons were lett dead or wounded on Baltimore street, several of them being newsboys, who had been crying the afternoon ne.wspapers. Of course the street was quickly cleared and the militia passed on to the depot, where they were to join the Fifth Regiment from their up-town armory. TUE KILLED AND WOCNDJD Seven men are ltnown to be killed and eight wounded, some of them mortally. The dead and dying were taken into convenient saloons and drug stores, the floors of which look like butcher pens. At a saloon corner of Holiday and Baltimore streets a dead boy, with his skull crushed in, a dead man, with his bowels torn out by a ball, and another dying of a wound in the neck, lay on the floor. Sinilar scenes characterized other localities on the route. At Camden Depot an immense mob was congregated, and the Fifth Regiment found it difficult to make the-way clear. The crowd, pressing upon them, tore the muskets from many of the men, but there was no firing. THE DEPOT FIRED. BALTIMORE, July 20-10:30 P. M.—The depot at Camden Station is on fire, and it is said the railroad office has been cleaned out. The telegraph office in the depot building has been destroyed, the wires cut and inatrunients re moved. TUE FIRE EXTINGUISLIED, WITH BUT SLIGHT DAM- BALTIMORE, July 20—Midnight.—The fire at the depot at Camden Station has been extin guished, with but little damage. The tele graph office cleaned out was the dispatcher's office on the station platform and not the office in the main building. All the Baltimore and Ohio wires have been cut. A TRAIN STONED AT SIR JOIIN'S RUN. MAttrissuuno, July 20-9 A. M.—The fact that the west-bound freight train, which left here yesterday afternoon, was stoned at Sir John's Run was not disclosed until this morn ing. The fireman, Zepp, was struck, but was only slightly injured. The attack is not at tributed by the railroad officers as a result of the strike, but it is supposed to have been made by canal boatmen, who have been in the habit of riding on the freight trains, which privilege was denied them on that train. There were some torpedoes placed on the track near Keyser, but they could do no dam age. The trains began to move at 7 o'clock. The first one westward took a detachment of troops under the command of Lieutenant Howard. There appears to be little difficulty thus far in obtaining men to work the trains, and some of the strikers have applied to be reicstated already. Three trains have gone East and three West. VIZ STRIKERS AT GRAFTON. Giterros, W. Va., July 20.—The strikers held a meeting here last bight, and resolved to send assistance to their comrades at Keyser, where they have learned that a small squad of United States soldiers have been sent to guard a train just arrived. The strikers here are over one hundred strong, and are entirely beyond the control of the civil authorities.— The telegraph wires have not been cut at any point between Martinsburg and Wheeling, as reported, but the wires have been tampered with by the strikers, who have among their numbers sollle men who are operators. It is known that they have tapped the wires to get information of the plans devised to circumvent them. THE TROUBLE AT CUMBERLAND. CUMBERLAND, July 20.—Three trains from Martinsburg have arrived here to-day. One had troops and passed without trouble. The engineers and firemen were taken from the others and the trains stopped. There are but few railroaders here, but the idle from the roiling mills and sympathy of the citizens make all the trouble. There is much excite ment, and it is difficult to tell what the resuit nay be. THE MEN STANDING FIRM AT KETSIII. KEYSER, W. Va., July 20.—The second troop train has just arrived here. A few men are around the station, but all is quiet. The men are firm in their determination not to run out any trains, but they will hardly attempt to stop others, as there is an abundant military force here. THE PAN HANDLE, PITTBBCRG, TORT WAYNE AND CHICAGO, AND BALTIMORE AND OHIO HANDS OF THE IRON CITY JOIN. PITTSBURGH, July 20.—The result of to day's work of the strikers shows that they are more powerful and determined than was supposed. The entire Sixth Division, National Gnardg of Pennsylvania, which includes the Fourteenth, Eighteenth and Nineteenth Regiments, Knapp and Hutchison Batteries and Jefferson Cavalry, is out. They have little to do, for unless violence is used they cannot interfere. The strikers work quietly, with little intimidation and no force. They jump on an engine, tell the engineer they are on a strike and ask him to help them, which he does. The strike this' afternoon and tc-night has extended to the ' Pan Handle, Pittsburgh, Fort Wayne and Chicago, and Baltimore and Ohio Railroads branching from here. The Pan Handle author ities sent nearly all their crews to Dennison to prevent them from striking, but it had no effect, as the strike was inaugurated here.— The Pan Handle has now only one crew be tween here and Dennison. The first move of the strikers on the Baltimore and Ohio was made at 10 o'clock to-night. Strikers from other roads went over, stopped a couple of trains and gave notice that no more trains should go out. The officers, knewing them selves powerless, acquiesced immediately, and countermanded the orclAirs for departing trains. At Torrens Station, on the Pennsylvania [tail road, eight miles from Union Depot, five hun dred coal miners assembled to-night to aid the railroad men, and said if more were needed they would get them. Nut a single treig:it train has been sent out to-day, and in the yard are six hundred cars of perishable stuff. Some of it was unloaded and the contents sold at a sacrifice. The West Pennsylvania Railroad and the Allegheny Valley Road are the only ones not included in the strike. PITTSBURGH, Pa., July 21.—The negotiations last night between the strikers and the railway officials came to naught, and only one fruitless attempt was made to move a train. The strikers guarded the depot all night and this morning, and by daylight all idea of compro mise was abandoned. The situation, even in the morning, was critical in the extreme, and a collision was expected at any moment. In addition to the Allegheny County infantry on duty last night, two batteries and two troops of cavalry were called out, and two brigades of the First Division at Philadelphia, 1,800 strong, including infantry, artillery and cav alry, under command of Major-General lirin ton, were ordered here, and arrived at inter vals during the afternoon and evening. The strikers professed the greatest contempt for the military preparations, and mingled freely with the soldiers. From the Union Dcpot to twenty-eight street lines of pickets were drawn during the morning, and civilians of till classes were kept off the track. Judge Ewing, of the Common Pleas Court, to-day issued warrants for the arrests of a number of the ringleaders, and Sheriff Fife tried to secure a posse of 100 deputy sheriffs but could only muster eighteen, nearly all of whom were •the regular deputies. Two or three companies of the military were added to the posse, and at 3 o'clock the Sheriff started to make the arrests, but up to midnight the warrants are .unexecuted and are likely to remain so. Preparations for the conflict were actively in progress at G o'clock, and at that time the military, with Galling guns and field-pieces, were being concentrated and the strikers reinforced by miners from Wilkinsburg and idle workmen in the east end. More than halt the men engaged in the obstruction of the tracks have no connection with the rail road, and all the late accessions are from non railroaders. The matter began by this time to assume a Communist shape, and the leaders freely declared that 20,000 working-men stood reatiy to join the movement at a moment's notice. Seven out ofevery ten men one meets openly express sympathy for the strikers, and this includes many merchants and business men. The city by evening was in a state of feverish excitement over the impending, strug gle, and already the wildest rumors of blood shed began to call out great crowds, who besieged the newspaper offices in search of information. The Telegraph had information in its 6 o'clock extra that the fight had already begun at Twentj -eight street, in which twelve men were killed and many wounded. The news created the wildest excitement on the streets. A conflict had, indeed, actually taken place and the first reports at that hour placed the fatalities at two killed, who were strikers, and some fifteen soldiers and the same number of strikers, wounded. At 3:40 o'clock the First Brigade of Philadelphia under Gen. lirinton, and headed by Superindenent Pitcairn. left the Union Depot for the scene of disturbance at the Twenty-eight street crossing, marching along the track, and preceded by the Sheritfi and his posse. Expecting to fail in an effort to disperse the strikers the Sheriff,accompan ied by some fifteen deputies, expected to attempt the arrests and then call upon the military for the requierd assistance. This was understood to be the plan of action deter mined upon, and a conflict was expected. The party arrived at Twenty-eight street shortly before 5 o'clock. When the line reached the depot they immediately cleared the crossing amid the jeers and hootings of the strikers, who widely scattered through the great crowd, there being not less than 5,000 people present. Consultation was then held by the officers in command with Superintendent Pitcairn and the Sheriff, after which the latter proceeded to read the Riot act. Having warrants for the arrest of fifteen of the ringleaders, he proceed to make an arrest. The particular man fur whom the warrant was issued approached, waved L is hat, and calling to the crowd and the strikers said, "Give them bell." Imme diately a shower of boulders was hurled into the troops and one revolver shot fired into the ranks. General Brinton then ordered his men to fire, and the wnrd went along the line from platoon to platoon until the left of the line was reached, and then the firing was repeated several times. crowd fled in dismay, and hid wherever it eras possible. Immediately after the firing crowds of excited people sprang up, as if by mag. , from 2:1 directions, and the imprecations against the Philadelphia troops, who were blamed by the strikers and the mob as being responsible for the trouble, were very threatening. It was a noteworthy fact that hundreds of people in no way con nected with the railroad expressed their determination to join with the strikers in driving them from the city. These remaks were interspersed with loud and bitter threats that the company's shops, depots and build ings should to-night be laid in ashes. While some of the soldiers were carrying a wounded comrade to shelter at the corner of Liberty and Twenty-eight streets they were attacked by an excited mob and compelled to drop the body of their friend. The soldiers —a squad of six—prepared to charge on the crowd, when they were allowed to pa - s. Sixteen were killed outright at the Twenty eight street crossing or have since died, and thirty or forty were wounded. LATER. ' The rioters have captured cir:ee pieces of or dinance belonging to Knapp's battery. The wildest excitement pets ades the city to-night. The First and Second regiments, of Philadelphia, are huddled in the round house of the Pennsylvania railroad, thorough ly frightened with the result of the day's work. The hasty action of the first named has result ed in the death of ten persons and a number of others so badly wounded that they can hard ly survive. An immense crowd is now in the neighborhood of the round house. Many are armed with with guns and small arms, taken from the -- gin stores of the city, and threaten to kill ftiery man of the eastern sold iers they can reich. At midnight a crowd, composed of strikers and workingmen of other lines of business, are firing into the roundhouse, to which fire the troops are responding. Heaven knows what morning will bring forth. Nothing like it has ever been seen in this section of the State. The police are powerless, and a great force of them has been pushed aside, while crowds smashed in gun stores and carried off every thing in the way of guns, revolvers :hid am munition. Mr. Cassatt, vice president of the Pennsyl vania railroad, Clinton Gardner, General l'ear son and General Briuton, of Philadelphia, are all in the roundhouse with the eastern milita . . The sight presented after the soldiers had ceased firing was sickening. Old men and boys attracted to the spit through motives of curiosity lay writhing in the agonies of death, while numbers of children were killed out right. Yellowside, in the neighborhood of the scene of conflict, was actually dotted lvith the dead and dying, while weeping women, curs ing loudly and deeply the instruments which made them widows, were clinging to bleeding corpses. On every hand citizens unite in con demning the act of the military. TUe men composing the regiment justify their action, inasmuch as they were ordered to fire by the officers in command. General Pearson is charged with being the officer who gave the command to fire. A number of citizens went to the Philadel phia soldiers who are iutrenched in the Penn sylvania round house to-night and begged them to leave the city, as a general massacre is feared. They were unable to do so en account of the surrounding mob, and three of the soldiers who attempted to slip out singly were shot and instantly killed. Two citizens were shot down on Liberty street a short time ago. Passenger trAf.c on the Pennsylvania road is entirely suspended, and the Union depot and the adjoining hotels have been abandon ed. Another gun shop was raided on Liberty street about 10 o'clock. An e.ltirtn of fire is now striking from the outer depot. The casualties at Pittsburg so fur as ascer tained arc as follows : KILLED.

PITTSBURG, J toy 22—The freight department of the Pittsburg, Cincinnati and St. Louis railroad and general office of the same compa ny were, fired at 4:30 p. m. These are in close proximity to the Union depot. Last night after the troops took refuge in the round house, finding it difficult to dislodge the military from the building they resolved to burn them out. An order to this effect was issued, and it was carried into execution with fiendish alacrity by the rioters. In consequence of the blockade which had existed for two days the sidings in the outer depot yards, as well as those extending east ward some three or four miles, were crowded with freight cars filled with grain, produce and merchandise of all kinds, besides which a num ber of loaded oil, coke and coal cars were pil ed up in the mass. While a portion of the mob surrounded the building iii which the military had taken ref uge large bodies proceeded to set fire to the oil cars, and in a moment the huge volumes of black smoke. which rolled upwards in every direction, told that the work of destruction had commenced. The sight of the flames seem ed to literally craze the rioters, some of whom rushed madly about with flaming torches in their hands applying them to the cars indis criminately. An alarm was sounded and the department promptly responded but the rioters, who had I complete control of the city, refused to permit them to make any effort to extinguish the flames. They said they were determined to destroy the railroad company% property, but no injury to that belonging to private citizens. They kept their word too, and when a lum ber pile belonging to a citizen took fire the ri oters themselves turned and helped to exting uish the flames and remove the lumber to a safe place. Train after train was fired by the infuriated crowd, but the cars were so far distant from the round house that the heat did not serious ly affect the military, although their position was one of peril. Finally a large party of strikers captured a car filled with coke which they run from the Allegheny Valley road track to a siding connecting with the Pennsylvania road. They then procured large quantities of petroleum and poured it over the coke, ignit ed the materials, and in a very few minutes the car was a mass of fire and it was then pushed along the tracks and forced against the round house. The building was soon ig nited, and the soldiers were now compelled to prepare to fight their way out through the frenzied-mass of humanity clamoring for their blood. The building did not burn as rapidly as was desired and the mob bent on revenge rushed pout on the road and sent burning trains to wards the doomed buildings. From midnight until 5 o'clock this morning the main efforts of the crowds were directed to firing the buildings anti cars, but about half an hour later the mob winch had been bes,:iging the military, left for some unexplain ed reason. This afforded the troops who were in actaal danger of being roasted alive an op portunity to emerge from the building, and they succeeded in reaching Liberty street in a very few moments. They quickly formed in line and marched up to Thirty-third street and thence to Penn avenue and Butler st. Their objective point was the United States arsenal on Butler street, where they expected to obtain shelter. While turning into Butler street, however, the leaders had discovered their retreat and fully 1000 men armed and supplied with am munition, followed in pursuit. Some of the troops fired at citizens either accidentally or intentionally as they were going along and this added fury to the cry for revenge. When they reached the arsenal the commandant re fused to admit them. He said he had but ten men and would be powerless to hold the place if iito /nob should attack it. Ile consented to take care of the wounded and they were ac cordingly carried into the hospital. The main body of the troops continued their march out Butler street, a fusilade being kept on them by the mob as they moved forward. The shots fired killed one of the soldiers before they reached the arsenal, and nearly opposite the cemetery gate, fully a mile above the arsenal, - two others were killed and were left lying on the sidewalk. They continued their flight and crossed over to the north side of the Alleghe ny river on the Sharpsburg bridge, the mob following them as rapidly as possible. After reaching the north side the troops scattered and iu this way the mob was divided into very small bodies, .In the meantime the city was in a state of anarchy. Thousands who had not joined in the pursuit of the fleeing troops gathered about the burning buildings and trains and assisted in spreading the flames wherever they had not been applied. By seven o'clock the fire had extended from l‘fillvale station to Twentieth street anti enveloped hundreds of cars, the ex tensive machine shops, two round houses, de pot and office of the Union Transfer Company, blacksmith shops, storehouses and numerous other builuings making up the terminal facil ities of this mammoth corporation. In the round house were 125 first class locomotives which had been housed in conse quence of the strike. These were totally destroyed, but even the immense loss which will be sustained in this item, it is but a trifle in the aggregate damage done. The scenes transpiring on Liberty street, along the line of which the tracks of the railroad run simply beggar description. While hundreds were engaged in firing the cars and making certain of the destruction of the valuable buildings at the outer depot, thousands of men, women and children were engaged in pillaging the cars. Men armed with heavy sledges would break open the cars and than the contents would be thrown out and carried off by those bent on profiting by the reign of terror reign ing. The street was almost completely blockaded by persons laboring to carry off the plunder they had gathered together. In hundreds of instances wagons were pressed into service to enable the thieves to get away with their goods. Mayor M'Carthy early in the day endeavored to stop the pillage but the handful of men at his command was unable to control the crowd who were desperate it. their anxiety to secure the goods. The pillage was checked, but the mob fired the cars and then pi-seceded with the work of destruction. It is impossible to form any idea of the amount of goods stolen, but hundreds of thousands of dollars will not cover the loss.' Some of the scenes, nothsvithstanding the terror which seemed to paralyze peaceable and orderly citizens, were ludicrous in the highest degree, and no one seemed to enjoy them with greater zest than those outraged in the whole sale plunder. Here a brawny woman could be seen berrying away with pairs of white kid slippers under her asins; another, carrying an infant, would be rolling a barrel of flour along the sidewalk, using her feet as the propelling power. Here a man pushing a wheelbarrow loaded with white lead bags, others hurried through the crowd with large sized family bibles as their share of the plunder, while scores of females utilized aprons and dresses to carry flour, eggs, dry goods, etc. Bundles of umbrellas, fancy parasols, hams, bacon, lard, calico, blankets and flour were mixed together in the arms of,robust men, or carried on hastily constructed hand barrows. At eleven o'clock in the morning it became apparent that something must oe done to check the mob and a number of citizens hur riedly prepared notices calling amass meeting of citizens at old city ball to take measures to prevent further destruction of property. The meeting was held at noon and a large number of landing citizens .responded to the call. It was decided to appoint a committee consisting of Bishop 'fugg, of the Catholic Church, James Parke, jr., Dr. E. Donnelly, James I. Bennett and Dr. S. F. Scovel, pastor of the First Presbyterian church, to have a conference with the rioters, while another committee was appointed to wait on the rail road authorities to ascertain what course they intended to pursue or to suggest a compromise that would put an end to the disorder which existed. The meeting then adjourned to meet again at four o'clock in the afternoon. The committee to wait on the rioters failed to induce them to refrain from further destruc tion of property and railroad authorities could not be found. From the time the military fled up to three o'clock in the afternoon no effort had been made to check the mob other than the meeting of citizens referred to. The mob worked very quietly and it was a noticeable fact that few of the railroad em ployees were engaged in the work of destruc tion. Here and there a man who had been discharged might have been seen leading a crowd, but generally the ringleaders were men who had never been employed on any railroad. Many baifgrown boys were foremost in the work of devastation and vied with the older ones in their efforts. The operations were carried on very quietly and the multitude of men, women and chil dren who filled the streets and occupied posi tions on the hillside south of the railroad, looked on with astonishment while the tie struction of property continued. At 3:30 a burning car was run clown the grade under sheds surrounding the Union depot. Up to this time it was hoped that the building would escape, but the mass of pine lumber used in shedding over the tracks were soon a sea of fire. While the fire was raging here the mob pillaged the freight depot of the Pittsburgh, Cincinnati and St. Louis railroad which is in close vieidity. Boxes of freight received for shipment were broken open and valuable contents carried off. After plundering the depot for an hour, and after the flour, hams, and all kinds of pro visions had been carried away, the torch was applied and soon the vast depot and the com pany's general office adjoining, were a mass of flames. The depot of the Adams express company, located on Grant "street, was also destroyed. The fire department of the city continued on duty from the time of the first alarm, but were not allowed to throw any water on, or make any effort to save the property of the railroad company. They consequently direct ed their efforts to saving the private property on the north side of Liberty street. In this they were mainly successful although six dwellings and a sash factory located near the round home were destroyed early in the day. When the Union depot building was fired, followed by the Panhandle office, a panic seized the citizens, who had up to this time calraly folded their arms and looked on. It was feared that a conflagration would sweep the entire portion of this city south of the Panhandle railroad tracks, as many of the buildings were small frames and as dry as tinder. At this juncture the fire department of Allegheny, which had been held in readi ness in case of an outbreak on that side of the river, was summoned to assist in staying the progress of the flames. The Pan Handle railroad building was the last one in the line and the Allegheny depart ment was placed on Seventh avenue to check the progress of the flames in that direction. When the last building was fired the whole territory between Seventh avenue and Mill vale section, a distance of three miles was a mass of flames. The railway company's prop erty being all between the south side of Lib erty street and the Bluff. The hill extending from Seventh avenue to Millvale. The small houses on the hillside, although badly scorched, were not destroyed. The railroad buildings destroyed were as follows : Two roundhouses, one machine shop, superintendents office, car repair shop, black" smith shop, three or four oil houses, Union transfer depot and the offices of the Pullman company, laundry and offices, dispatchers office, powder house ; Union depot hotel, Pan Handle railroad engine house, general offices and freight depot of the Adams express coin- The freight depot of the Pittsburgh, Cin cinnati and St. Louis and the general offices of the same company were fired at 4:30 o'clock this afternoon. These are in close proximitry to the Union depot. Citizens are organizing and marching to the scene of the conflict to prevent further dam age. All are armed with concealed weapons and heavy base ball bats. RIOT AT RZADINO. READING, Pa., July 23-2:15 A. M.—The ex isting railroad troubles, which have created intense excitement in this city, culminated in a serious outbreak to-night. Shortly after 10 o'clock upon the arrival of the last passenger train from Philadelphia, about a thousand men followed after the train from Seventh and Penn streets to the new passenger depot. The night trains were prevented from leaving the depot and several hundred persons com menced obstructing the tracks of the Lebanon Valley Railroad leading to Harrisburg. Two cabooses were set on fire and an alarm of fire having been struck the entire fire department . responded. The firemen were prevented, however, by the crowd from extinguishing the flames. Attention having been diverted by the burning cars, the work of destruction was continued at other points along the road, tearing up tracks, turning and blocking switches and burning of freight cars. A train of freight cars on the main track on the Sec and street crossing was set on fire, and five cars were totally consumed. The Lebanon Valley Railroad bridge, a magnificient struc ture across the Schuylkill, costing over $150,000, was fired at the western end shoity before midnight and totally destroyed: At 1:35 A. M. all the spans had fallen into the river. The object in destroying the bridge is believed to have been to prevent the passage of troops through this city to Harrisburg and points on the Pennsylvania Railroad. PHILADELPHIA, July 23.-11 A. M.—The rioters have just fired an oil train at South street bridge. The fire was gotten under con trol after four cars of oil bad been destroyed. It is not krown by whom the fire was started. The large crowd present assisted in detaching cars from the burning train and running them to places of safety. The excitement has been allayed and the people are now dispersing. Therc are large crowds of strikers and others along the line of the 'Pennsylvania railroad west of the depot, but they are kept under control by the police force under theperaorll direction of the mayor, and any attempt at disorder is promptly checked. Four hundred regular soldiers u:.der com mand of General Hancock arrived here from Baltimore at one o'clock, fully armed and equipped. President Gowan, of the Reading road, has offered a reward of $lO,OOO for information leading to the arrest and conviction of the parties who fired the Lebanon Valley bridge at Reading last night. STRIKI3II9 ON THEIS DIGNITY, HARRISBURG, Pa., July 22.—The Fourth Di vision, portions of which are expected in the morning, has been called out for the protec lion of the Arsenal and other State propert: Detachments will probably be used in guard log the three Susquehanna Railroad bridges. Only a small representation of the division is expected to respond to the command of the State authorities who ficd themselves utterly unable to cone with the striker'. None of the heads of departments entrusted with the supervision o: the troops are here, but it is rumored that all ele troops smt to Pittsburg will return to their bomes in a few days. The strikers have rebelled rcTains:. the action of certain per, 3ns in stopping the passenger rains to night, and t. ill see that ti.ey are to ken to Philadelphia. TUE LAKE SHORE MEN JOlll THE ,TRIKERS OT THE PIIILADELPIII.O. AND ZRI • ERIE, July 22.—The employes of the Phila delphia and Erie Railroad struck at 3 o'clock this afternoon. The strikers to the number of about 300 assembled at the outer depot about half-past 1 and hard that the superin terd-nt had ordered a train of forty-five cars, drawn by a double-header, to leave for Phila delphie. The engitteers were taken off their engines and the mr -.blues were run into the rowed house uy the strikers, who now have possession. No further attempts to bend out freight trains were made. At 5 o'clock the train men on the Erie and Pittsburg road we t out and all freights have been at.nduned.— The strike was quietly - inaugurated on the Lake Shove and Nlfthigan Southern at g o'clock. Although it practically had been in force all day, the strikers allowed three stock trains to be run out on the Lake Shore ro. i this after noon. The company are unloading their -tock trains at Ashtabula and Painesville, Ohio.— No violence has been offered at this point.— Four companies of State militia from Erie are encamped at Greenville, Pa., awaiting orders to move on to Pittsburg. TOE STRIKE AT ALTOONA. ALTOONA, July 22.—TEs morning on Pacific Express schedule, three train loads of soldiers en route to Pittsburgh, passed through the city. As they entered the depot at this point they were received by a few railroad employees there collected with expressions of disappro— val. They belonged to the First Division of Philadelphia, and were composed of the Ist, 2d, 3d, and 6th Regiments, 1,500 men under the command of Gen. R. M. Brinton. The German Hussars, Invincibles and State Fen cibles were with them. Dismounted cavalry and artillery were noticeable also. At this point four large boxes of cartridges were put on board. As the trains left the depot here the coupling pins of the engines were pulled five different times. One railroader knocked a soldier down, for an alleged insult, but the affair qnickly blew over. Almost two hun dred railroaders were gathered at the depot, and the opinions expressed were as various as the characters of the men. A stone was thrown just as the last train went out, which struck the side of the last engine, and a link was thrown which struck a car. Mr. J. K. Russell, one of the bosses in the upper round Louse, in attempting to stop a man from pull ing a pia, was almost thrown off the train. This morning about 10:35, about fifty idle brakemen assembled in the yard of the rail road company, stopped two trains loaded with stone, sent the engineer to the round house, refused to allow the other engines prepared to take the trains on to get out of the gate at the round bouse. They also sent all the shift ing engines in but one for passenger use. The men are quiet but determined and the engineers, though as yet not guilty of any overt act, seem to be in full sympathy with them. The strikers have full control of the yard, and while expressing their purpose of allowing all passenger trains to pass, will refuse passage to anything else. Several cabin cars loaded with employearresiding at the Harrisburg end of the Middle Division were shipped home his morning. PITTSBURG July, 24.—The civil authorities have assumed complete control and everything is running quietly. The emergency police are arresting all suspicious persons and sending them to the penitentiary. It may be that many innocent persons will suffer in consequence of this mode of procedure, but the determination is to restore order. The railroad strikers are aiding in making arrests and workmen from various manufactories hare joined with them. READING, July 24.-8:30 P. M.—At this hour everything is very quiet here and coin paratively few persons are on the streets. The railroad crossing at Seventh and Penn streets is clear, being guarded by the city police. Governor Hartranft to the Peop!e. Gov. Hartranft arrived in Pitt,thurg on Weilneq day morning lint, from which point he i.sued the following procla.naticm: PITTSBURGH, July 25, 1577. To the People of the State of Peonsylettnia : 147,eregg, There exists a condition of turbulence and disorder within the State extending to many interests and threatening all communities, under the impulse of which there has grown up a spirit of law h;ssness requiring that aN law-observing citizens shall organize themselves into armed bodies for the purpose of self•proteetion and pre- serving the peace. Therefore I, John F. Hartranft, Governor of the State of Pennsylvania, do hereby rccotumcnd that all citizens shall organize themselves into associa- tions, with sv,^ll arms as they can procure, for the purpoo of maintaining order and suppressing violence, and all good citizens are warned against appearing in company with any mob or riotous assembly, and thus giving encouragement to vio- lation of the law. J. F. HARTRANFT, liovernor, [As we go to press, Thursday morning, the strike throughout the country is gen eral, but the indications are that mob rule has been subdued. In Pittsburgh, Read ing and other places, quiet has been res. tored so far as acts of violence are con cerned. but the strikers are as determined as ever.] Dyspepsia. Dyspepsia. Dyspepsia. Dyspepsia is the most perplexing of all human ailments. Its symptoms are almost infinite in their variety, and the forlorn and despondent victims of the disease often fancy themselves the prey, in turn of every known malady. This is due, in part to the close sympathy which exists between the stomach and the brain, and in part also to the fact that any disturbances of the digestive function necessarily disorders the liver, the bowels and the nervous system, and effects, to some extent, the quality of the blood. E. F. Kunkel's Bitter Wine of Iron a sure cure. This is not a new preparation to be tried and found wanting ; it has been prescrib ed daily for many years in the practice of eminent physicians with unparalleled success ; it is not expected or intended to cure all the diseases to which the human family is subject, but is warranted to cure Dyspepsia in its most obstinate form. Kunkel's Bitter Wine of Iron never fails to cure.
