Chicago, July 8 THE ieat of war in the great rail road strike was transferred today to Hammond, Ind., juat across the border line and whor. from an early hour, mob violence reignei supreinv. Two companies of regulars were di?p'cbed to the scene. Lite tbis afternoon there was a pitched lattle between the regular and the taoh. Tbis is the list of casualties: Charles Flkiscuer, carpenter, married. ned 35, a resident ot Hammond killad instantly. W. H. Campbell a shot in right thigh probably fatal. Victor, Keitor, also of Hau.mond, shot in tbe knee, amputation of leg necessary, condition critical. Miss Annie Fleming, of East Chicago, bullet wou id above knee, not seriouv rKown man, shot in leg, amputation probably necessary. Tbe trouble commenced at daylight v hen a mob which had been in tbe r.ulghrorhood since the evening before, tverturned fifteen freight ears on tht Chicago aud Culnmet Terminal rail load, between Hammond and Etst Chi cago. Four Pullmans were set on fir and badly scorched. Shortly after daybreak the north leuud train on the Monon road reach ed the city. It was urrouudd by a crowd of striktrf, boys aud women &ad ' tbe engineer and fireman were f er emptorily ordered to get down from tit eab and they were quick to obey. One of tbe strikers then took possession t f the engine and tbe train wus side tracked, A telegram wus sent to Chi onto asking for military assistance to f t the t'rarrt out. At 11.30 Company D, of tbe Fifteenth regiment, thirty :ve strong, arrived in two coaches. Tbe regulars disembarked at the cepot and marched to tbe side track iv be r? the Monon train was stationed. The mob fell back on tbe approach of tie military, but hooted and jeered and the scene was a veritable bedlam. .One knit of tbe campany took up its position i front of tbe engine aud tbe other bntftu tbe rear and preparations were inauJ to move tbe train. The crowd now nearly 3,000 strong aud real is!ia tbe fast that reinforcements were -tsaary, a detail was' sent to the talc fraph c7,e with instructions to wire t j Chicago . ir more trm.pi. lb tbe tueautiue Mjor Reilly ord ered Captalo Hariz to dear the tracks te tbe sidewalks with fixed bayonets. The regular advanced, the mob re treated and or tbe time beiug was LU at bay. Shortly before 1 o'clock a train of empty car was lUrted from tbe yards, tie way being clearstt by tbe soldiers, -be mob contented itself with jeer ing and invocations. Temporary quiet was secured while Sheriff Fredericks read a telegram which had jnst been received from Governor Matthews conveyed advioj that a large force of state troops would reach Hammond tonight (with instruc tions not ouly to muiutaia law and or der at all hazards, bat to co-operate with tbe federal troops. The dispatch bad it that tbe whole fere ot the state would be sent to the seene If neoessarv. The mob listened to tbe reading of tbV dispateh iu silence, but when thesherUT bad concluded it (sent up such a yell ot eVfianee as might be expected to emanate only from an army of red kin on the plaias. The mob went to tie adjacent prairie ou either (id of tbe track for while, but becoming emboldened by the apparent Inactivity of tbe military cloud upon the rails ouly to be repulsed. Tbis condition or atfairs continued intermittently until 4 o'clock, when tbe train that biixt trougbt tbe second detachment of rtgular wa run into the Monon yards. Just as it was brought to a. i.andstill several box cars were dumped oa tbe track a block and a half to the fcertb. About tbe same tuxie the Monon suall train came in from the south, rrylng mail matter. A company of regulars was ordered t tbe State line, but bad hardly passed before tbe mob assembled at the State ireet crouing, when reck was thrown around a Pullman car standing on a tide truck a few yards north, vritb tbe evldebt intention of throwing it pver on tbe main track and prevent in the further passage of the train. Her war regulars on tb engine, regu lars o tbe roof and regulars' at the ear wtndowe'all of tbein waiting for just tacb n Condition as was now, imminent. Au officer on th locomotive gave the word, and toward west and to toward ast volley was poured from epgine, roofs aud windows. Some of the bal lets went overhead, many more plowed tbe grouod, a few took effict. With out waiting for further orders the reg ulars mad for solid earth and witti ' bayonets fixod made a dash for the mob ou both sides of tb trsok. Tbis mauquv re, however, was hardly necessary. Obscured by the amok tb mob bad taken to it bels like fright ened geesr. Not a few threw tbetu elves Headlong on tbe prairie where they laid fl tt.so thoroughly Reared that it Wasi a matter ot imli(Trnra in rtbem whether tbe soldiers trampled mem uown iu in cuivrg or nqt Miss Fleming, who was noteven a spectator of tbe melee, being simply in the act of crossing tbe tracks after a visit to a neighbor's house, .fainted when bot, was picked up by some of the bystaudsr and carried to the nearest bouse iu the vicinity. Tbe shedding of blood was in obdi euce to orders issued by General Mi If 8 to shoot any persou caujrM in the act of blocking the highway of inter-state commerce or of destroying railroad property used in the carriage of United States mails. Fleischer was fen innocent victim. He bad gone to the tracks simply to find and take home his sou whom he bad been told was looking on in th outskirts of tbe mob. Indis criminate firing of tb regulars created intent rage and excite ment. Huudreds of the mob rutbed to their homes and returned to the scene with revolvers and shot guns, or filling tbe air with oaths and impre cations, declared their Intention of kill ing every ixmu wearing au army uui form. In tbe uieau time a dead lino bud been thrown out. Mayor Ruilly mounted a box car and pleaded with and prayed to tba crowd to be calm audeommit no further Violence. Tbe crowd wa unwilllug to respond to the advice tbe regulars w.re re tutored by three companies that ram in from Chicago on a special train. Overawed by tbe display of military turce the mob gradually thinned out aud at mid night tbe street of the town had re sumed their uorm tl aspect L.vte this evening tuere was some msKe shooting.

Weeks, a plumber was id the act of turning the water out of the stand pipes which are used to fill the engines. Fire was at once opened by the soldiers, and Weeks, with the Intention of fooling tbe regulars, dropped into the high grass at the side of tbe tracks as though be bad been shot. The first rank of the company, however, closed about bim and Gndiu; bim unhurt, placed him under arrest. Company B returned to Chicago after lue shooting ou their own traiu, If they ha 1 not done so an attempt would bav. been made to serve war rants for murder upon them, bucb warrants were sworn cut before a jus tice when tbe tacts of tbe shooting were known, but the soldiers got away before any of the local police could execute the warrants.

The gang of men under tb charge of Foreman Van Fausen bed gone Into the mine early in the morning to do, some timbefiug in a tunnel, yhre a slight tqueez was noticeable. The roof bad been thoroughly testtd aud was thought to be perfeotly.safe. Dur ing tbe oioruitig there were no indica tions of tbe iquvezt extending. Tbe roof and pillars were chipping slight ly, but tbe workiugs were quieter than they had b;ea for some dty. The uieu were to have quit work at noon and gone outside for -dinner, but when their time was up they were just standing the last timber and decided to fiuish the job so It would not be neces sary to return to tb place. The five were directly in the face uf tha work ings, liftlug the beavy prop and Van Fausen was standiuir a few feet be biud them directing the placing of the timber. It was just being put in posi tion when tb tail occurred. There was not tbe slightest warning. A mass of coal fell with u rush anil tbe five men were immediately burried out of tight and bearing. Vau Fausen was ou the extreme edge ot tho fall aud was hurled from uuder it by tbe con cuskIou, but not quite far enough, at his left leg was caught under a lunas of coal and broken, while be Was badly 'bruised by flying pieces. BRAVE K-SCU-RS AT WORK. ..Men in otber parts ot tbe mine at once mailed, to the scene and tbe work of rescue was commenced. Van Fausen was quickly extricated and taken to tbe surface. He described before leav ing tbe mine just where the other men were standing and the rescuers sst' to work with a will ll get out tbe bodies, for it was thought none would be, alive. After working tor about three hours groans Were henfij, and tue men redoubled their efforts and ooo partly uucovered Anthony Znirzwiok. He was still alive, but unconscious. He was horribly crushed, bis bead .being a mass of brokeu bone and torn lLb. ile died soon afterward. Abont an hour afterward the body ot Evau Adam was recovered. He had leeuso fearful cruibed agaiust th side of the tunnel' Uat- his Mbody wat almost fist. When th fall occurred bo bad been standing ready to drive in a wedge ot wood between the prop aud the roof, When fouud the wedge and hammer were still in bla band, so his death must have been instantaneous. Shortly afterward tb bodies of Georg Hauuey and Jo SVatheliez were recovered ; tiles men bad fallen uuder tb prop which they bud bo en lifiing, which tell agaiust th side and partly protected them. Tbo masses of coal bad, however, closed them in so tightly that they were badly crushed by its weight and both were so seri ously injured that they could not re cover, They were taken out with great difficulty and were carried to the surface as soon as possible. - It was nearly ft olt-lock before tbe last man, John Zudic, was taken out. He was standing agaiust the rib and was paekid in tight by tbe debris. He would probably have escaped with hi life had not large pUo of coal struck hi head, fracturing bit skull. lis was unconscious when fouud. Crowds of people gathered about th mouth of th slop .when the hews of the accidvut spread through tb town and remained there until the last man was taken out.
