OFFICIAL PAPER OF THE CITY Indications for Tennessee and the Ohio Valley Stationary or higher pressure; warmer, clear or partly cloudy uieafAer, and occasional light rains, with southerly winds. Gold closed in New York yesterday at 3054. The dispatcher indicate a ceasation of railway hostilities at various important points in the country. The prospects in this city are not, to say the least, so un promising as they were twentyfonr hours ago. It has been represented that the strike heie is managed by twentyfive or thirty persons who hail from other points; that in fact the strike never bad consequential local encouragement, and that the body of the men employed on the various branches of the Pittsburg, Cincinnati and St. Louis railway are ready to resume the running of trains as soon as the outside influence withdraws or is removed. Representatives of the strikers claim that they are stronger now than at any previous time. From Cincinnati, however, we have the re port that there' is no obstruction there to the movement of all trains ; that in fact local freight trainB are running, and that through freight would be started if there was no detention at other places. This could not be the can if the strike was unanimous on all divisions of the Panhandle. If it is true that the property of the company is held under unlawful embargo in this city by a squad delegated from some other point, whose influ ence alone interrupts railroad business, the solution of the matter ought to be easy and expeditious. The men who belong here, and who are most intimately .concerned in the present difficulties, ought ito be able to point out those whose inter- rests are elsewhere. This done, the trouble would be "reduced to its lowest terms,' mul would be easily disposed of. Almost a Weddlnir. Cibclbville, Ohio, July 27, To the Editor Of the Ohio State Journal : We almost had a wedding last evening, A sewing machine agent won the love of one of our city ladies, and succeeded so well in his suit that the happy day was to come on last evening ; but, alas "there is many a slip 'twixt the cup and lip." The guests were invited, the cake baked, the wedding trousseau made, ana even the ice cream brought around to cool the fevered guests, ine parson the guests and bride waited until very late. The bridesmaid and the groomsman were there, with their lamp filled with oil, awaiting the glad coming of the groom, but he never came. He is not . here yet, and it may be he will not. Some of the boys think he went to Columbus to change his hat, and has been mistaken for a striker and arrested. If he is there, please send him home. He is wanted right now. , Incident or tbs Strike. 8t.

The seat of local war has been moved even farther away from news centers tban yesterday, and it now in the vicinity of Archer avenue and Halatead streets, some four miles away. The mob began to gather there at an early hour this morning, but not in great force, and no contest has taken place as yet. At noon it was reported that the crowds were gathering far out on the prairie, and were contemplating a descent with the stock yards gang as allies. JNo cars are allowed to run on rJalstead street north of the viaduct. .None are running on Clinton and Jefferson streets, and the rioters have tried to stop some other lines, but without success. Some laborers at the Western avenue stables struck this morning and formed n line intending to force other stables into the strike. They were, however, prevented and dispersed by the police. . . r , , . . i A meeting oi Bailors ana BieveuureH uu Lake and Water streets waa broken up prematurely by the police. Railroads Besoming; in the West. Chicago, July 27. The railroads are resuming bnsiness, both freight and passenger. They have had no trouble with their men at any time except in relation to their wages, and it is believed they have generally either compromised that question or left it to arbitrators. The officials and men are equally reticent on the subject. Toe Illinois Central tooK thirtyone cars of grain this morning and are running all trains as usual. The men, with few exceptions, appeared at the oar shops this morning ready for duly. Their behavior is highly complimented by the officials. The Michigan Cen tral is running all passenger trains on time, east and west, and all branches of the Freight Department will be ready to go to work with its old force as soon as it is certain that the company's properly here will be protected from the mob. Chicago, Burlington and (juincy passen ger trains are rumuug muug ma vuiui; line without trouble. Freight trains are not yet running, and nothing definite regarding the time of resuming them is known, but the orncers expect no luriuer trouble. The Lake Shore and Michigan Southern is Bending passengers through as usual, but freights are small on that line. Un the (Jhicago, Rock island and Pacific business is resumed on every branch and in every department. military Ordera. Chicago, July 27. The following special orders, No. 60, were issued here to-day, irom military headquarters: 1. Colonel John a. King, Ninth in fantry, is hereby placed in immediate command ot an the united states troops assembled in Chicago, Illinois. He will obey and execute such orders only as may come to him from these headquarters. Lieutenant Colonel Frederick v. Grant, aid-de-camp to the Lieutenant General commanding the division, is assigned to duty with Colonel King, Ninth infantry, to whom he will report, By command of Lieutenant General Sheridan. R. C. Drum, Assistant Adjutant General. Lam Hlgbt'a Plupatehes from Chicago. Chicago, July 27. The railroad employes here propose to organize a grand army to put down the Communists, whose riotous aots they disavow and denounce. The Bjard of Trade resumed business at 2:30 this afternoon, and withdrew the action of yesterday suspending the rules. They indicate by this that they consider the labor troubles at an end, or at leait under the control of the lawful authorities. Not all the people of Chicago share their confidence, but no further violent outbreak is expected at this time. 6 p. m. About noon the police arrested N. J. Clinch, a grocer and liquor dealer, and the moBt prominent agitator of the present lawless movement. He has been present in all attacks on the police, and has done more than any one man to precipitate bloodshed and incite riots. He will be severely dealt with, as the proof of his criminality is complete. All kinds of incendiary reportB were ourrent this evening, but none could be traced to a reliable head. Only one firs was reported during theday, and that was small and did little damage. The orders of policemen have been modified so that to-day they are instructed to shoot down any man who inter feres with them in the discharge of their dutv. or who is belligerent as a rioter. This modification of original instructions is undoubtedly on account of the un- stinted denunciation on all sides which the temporizing policy has met with. The strike of the West Side street rail road barn men is nothing of an alarming character, though several determined characters are among them. They say it U their intention merely to lay off a few days and see what is going on. They dis claim any intention of violence or riot ous proceedings. The regulars have been itching for an unrestricted right to clean out the mob, and such a proposition has been made but not accepted by the city authorities. The tanners, who struck en masse dur ing the warmest part of the controversy, have to-day resumed work. The Mayor to-day issued a notice call ing on all laborers to resume work, and promising them and their employers protection. Subsequently he issued the following proclamation . "The city authorities having dispersed all lawlessness in the city, and law and order being restored, I now urge and request all business men and employes generally to resume work and give employment, as much as possible, to their workmen. I consider this the first duty of our business community, I am now amply able to protect them and their workmen. Let every one resume operations and report any interference at polios headquarters. The citizens' organizations muBt continue in force, and on no account relax their vigilance, as the cause of tbe trouble is not local, and la not yet removed. All such organizations should form themselves into permanent bodies, continue on duty, and report regularly as heretofore. M, Heath, Mayor." The Pittsburg and Ft. Wayne railroad started out a train at 5:15 this afternoon, with a guard ot tortytour policemen. A mob this afternoon attempted to intimidate the workmen in the Phosnix distillery, on the North Side, but were themselves scattered by the police. The last accounts from the. Jlalstead street viaduct are to the effect that the military have been removed and all hi quiet. it is rumored that tbe communists are holding a meeting some miles from tbe oity, snd that a force has been sent after them. A foreman of a car shop to-day said It wss the intention of all workmen to re turn to work Monday morning. Among the establishments which resumed business to-day were firms employing 600 to 700 men, who were obliged to close by the rioters, though their men were anxious to work. Two companies of infantry and three of cavalry, direct from Fort McPherson, Nebraska, fully armed, arrived here during the day, and are waiting orderB from the Secretary of War, Police headquarters nave been notibed of the arrest of Sardy's gang of Plug- Uglies, who have been going about intimidating workmen and compelling them to quit. Members of the Board of Trade to-day raised $3500 for the family of Mr. White, killed at Lawndale by a rioter. A partial list of arrested yesterday and to-day shows one hundred and twelve in all the stations. They are almost invariably of the lowest foreign element, and many of them are well known disturbers of the peace. Latest from Chicago The Hob Itelted. Chicago, July 27. The night has been quiet up to this hour, and there is no prospect of any renewal of hostilities. The mob has not made its appearance, and despite active scouring of tbe prairie beyond the oity by the military not a vestige of yeterday's rabble can be found. A history of the day's work would be comprised in the tale of the harmless evolutions of cavalry and police. Not a head has been broken, and not over a dozen shots fired, and they at random, without effect. The mob, as a mob, has melted away, and its component parts are missing.Tbe Peoria Hob Demoralised. Peoria, July 27. The leaders of the mob here were caught last night by the police, and about thirty put in jail. Their followers were deterred from attempting their resoue by a few blank shots. The jail was guarded last night by military. The Board of Trade guarded the gas works and water works, and this morning the leaderlees mob is demoralized. Every passenger train went out on time this morning, escorted by a equad of troops, and it is believed the trouble is now eiiJed, though troops remain for emergencies. Additional arrests this morning com pleted the company of ringleaders now in jail. Factories olosed yesterday are run ning to-day. Steel Mills Cloaed atjollet. Joliet, July 27. The failure of Meeker & Co.. of Chicago, on account ol strikes, has resulted in the closing of the steel mills here. The establishment be ing two months in arrears to its employes, and threats of violence are being made by the latter, an effort to pay them is being made. Inlet at tculncjr. OtjiNoy. July 27. Everything is quiet in the railroad yards. There ap pears to be no danger of a strike. MISSOURI. United Worklnginen Address Governor Phelps and Mayor Over-stola.St. Louia, July 27.

Yours in the Nation s welfare, Ex. Coat, of Union Wobkingmkn, To the Hon. Homy Overatoli, Mayor of St. Louts: Sie We. the authorized representa tives of the industrial population ot Bt. Louis, have called on you to request your cooperation in devising means to procure food lor those actually in a aesiuuiecou dition. In order to save a useless waste of your time it is necessary that we at once say that all offers of work during this national strike cannot be considered bv us as a remedy under the present cir cumstances, for we are fully determined to hold out until tbe principles we are con' tending for are carried. It is tae earn est desire of every honest toiler in St. Louis to accomplish their purpose in as orderly a way as this dire contingency will allow. The contingency of food is already being felt.

In the name of all workingmen's associations, By the Executive committee of the United Workingmen's Party of St. Louis. The Cltlaea Soldiery Captures tbe Depot at St. Louis. St. Louie. July 27. The general out look this morning was very much more encouraging, and the authorities end citi zens felt as though the crisis was passed and there would be no more trouble. At military and police headquarters the tone was more quiet, but there was no relaxa tion of vigilance. Largs shipments of arms arrived during the night and morning, and tbe authorities immediately commenced equipping militia companies organised by the citizens. These oommands march through the city to the Four Courts, where they receive guns, cartridge boxes and orders. The companies first formed were ordered out on guard duty and left the Four Courts, going in various directions. Their places were immediately taken by commands formed later, who are being constantly drilled in- the manual for loading and firing. The authorities now explain their passive policy, and tbe reason why the strikers have been allowed to go so far. Up to last nigbt there were lees tban one thousand guns in possession of the military throughout the entire city. Now five thousand men will be armed before night. Twelve companies recsived breech loading guns up to twelve o'clock. At an early honr two full companies were sent to the City Hall and relieved the clerks and officials who have been doing duty there. At eleven o'clock General John W. Noble, with a battalion of four hundred men, under Captain Silas Bent, marched out of ths Four Courts and proceeded to the Union Dspot. Ueneral JNobie established his headquarters in the depot building, A large crowd has virtually had possession of the depot Binoe Tuesday. The battalion was dissolved into companies, guns were loaded, and the crowd was charged with fixed bayonets and driven out of the depot and yards. The move ments of militia were greeted with obeers and yells. A man who seemed to be the leader of the mob element present was seized and put under charge of a guard. the authorities announce that the depot will bs held, and that interference with trains there will not be permitted. A consultation . was held at headqaartare this forenoon by Mayor Oyerstolz, Gen eral A. J. Smith and prominent citizens, at which it was dscided that as soon as arms have been fully distributed, which will be this afternoon, the announcement will be made that guards will be furnish ed for all shops and factories the proprie tors of which are willing or want lo re sume work. The guards at the water works and gas works were increased this morning. Trades Vnion Meeting Broken VP In sit. Loois. St. Louis. July 27. Notwithstanding the rain from above and the mud under foot, a large crowd of men congregated around Schiller's Hall this morning, wait ing information of the action of committee meetings held therein. A meeting of delegates of all trade unions was called for three o'clock this afternoon, It was dtoided at military headquarters to break up the meeting and arrest the participants. Fifty mounted police, and twentyfive armed with muskets, and about the same num ber with the usual club and pistol, were ordered to the hall, and to make the arrests.That there should not be any failure five hundred of the citizens' guard and two companies of National Guard, and one piece of artillery, accompanied the police to support them, should the crowd offer resistance. This fores left the Four Courts at half past two o'clock, under command of General John D. Stevenson. Mavor Ovarstolz aocompanied the expe dition. Tidings of the purpose of the authorities reached the hall before the troops left the Four Courts, but it had no enect on tbe crowd in the streets, anq apparently none on the meeting. At three o clock me neau oi we vui nmn appeared coming up Fifth street. with mounted police in advance. When about one block from the hall the police drew pistols and charged on the crowd. The men gave way, scattered in all direc tions, tbs police pursuing tuem lor a aia-tance of a square on every side, and in live minutes there was scarcely a man within a distance of a block of the hall. Meantime tbe other part of the police force had advanced to the foot of the stairs leading to the hall above. Capt. Lee ascended first and alone. A moment after tbe whole cquad went up, and five minutes later they brought down about seventvfive men whom they found in the hall, placed them Detween two lines oi police armed with muBEets, and the wnoie thins was over. Every man in the upper part of the building wss arrested. One man attempt ed resistance, but a blow over the head from a club which 1st out a little blood subdued him ciuickly. The crowd, which had again drawn Bomewhat nearer to the building, made no demonstration. There was Bcarcelv a word or a hoot of defiance, The military halted about half a block from tbe entrance to the hall, ready for action: but their assistance was not re quired. The whole thing was over in ten minutes. The prisoners were locked up in the oalaboose. The return of the expedition was greet' ed along the streets with cheers from the peaceable and law abiding citizsns, and mere was mucn rejoicing at me reami, PENNSYLVANIA.

Strategy Against tba Blolere at Bethlehem. Bethlehem, Pa., July 27. The riot ers and strikers reached here this morn incr. and at Bethlehem Junction, when the passenger train on the Bath branch of the Central road of New Jersey was ready to start, they uncoupled the cars from the eagine and warned the crew that tbey would run tbe train at their peril. large number of citizens came to the res oue, and while the train dispatcher was consulting with the strikers the train started and pulled out very rapidly and got oft. A squad or coal and iron police arrived, and a crew was made up and a through car from Philadelphia to Mauch Ubnnk was taken to its destination. Ibe police leave shortly for Odenwelders, where trackmen will make necessary re' pairs.

An enoit was made by the oompany's officials to nave pumps worked, but the men were immediately called upon by a delegation of strikers and informed that if tbey attempted to touoh the pumps it would be at the peril of their lives. Mr. rjtorrs has applied to Mayor McKeem for protection in the working of the pumps, and ao arrest the immeasurable loss which the mine flood ing will entail. The city authorities are helpless. The miners and their sympa thizers are all desperate. Ibe Mayor has increased the special police force to fire hundred. The miners in the employ of the Dela ware and .Hudson Uanal company have demanded an advance of twentyfive per cent, and being refused are expected to strike in the morning. The situation is critical. Thus far there has been no disturbance.The) Hob In Defiant Possession at Odenwelders. Bethlehem, July 27. Superintendent Pothemua, with his gang of repair men, and their escort of coal and Iron police, arrived at Odenwelders this afternoon, whither they bad gone to repair the turntable. They were met by a large and excited erowd, who drove off the repair men.

Charles Brown, Alfied Johnson (colored), John Miller, Joseph Bates (colored), Lewis Kellis, Benoni Wil lis, VV. 1M. vote, ueorge Jonns, David Seaman and John Belmier, (known as "Dirty Foot"). They are a rough band of licentious, law-breaking men, who, with possibly an exception or two, delight in the excitement of a row; one, If not more of them, being an ex-con vict. James Tompkins having served a term for horse stealing. Belmier will probably fare worst, he having drawn a huge kmte on Deputy united estates Mar thai Pluyford. The next term of oourt does not begin until November 5, so that those wbo do not secure bail, and they will be many, will at least have a taste of j ail life.

Uolonel Uoddard, of the Uovernor s staff, since he came here to do service, has taken unto himselt a wife. This is in finitely better than that some other man's wife bad been killed by rioters. More idle men are to be seen on the streets now than ever before. Of all the speakers who addressed the workingmen's meeting last night, but one of the number made any eftort to turn tbe present difficulty into political capi tal. He said he was the poor man's friend, and knew lust when all their troubles commenced back as far as 1873, He alks gave at vice as to the way they could be romediiid, towit : the ballot-box, He is the Smart Alec of his party, wants office, and is noted for shooting (his mouth) whenever occasion offers.

The signatures of committeemen to these dispatches were forged, The strikers feel aggrieved and have announced that they will do nothing to forward the business of tbe road until they receive reliable orders from their own committeemen. The Strikers have re ceived a dispatch from the Postmaster General that the Government's contract with the Railroad company is to carry mails on passenger trains only. INDIANA.

IOWA. Tramps Take Command of a Train. Diss Moimes, Iowa, July 27. Fifty tramps boarded a passenger train at Fort Dodge yesterday, and refused to pay fare. The engineer stopped the engine, when the tramps ordered him to go on, threat ening to shoot. He then took them to Ackley, when they peaceably left. freight trams are resumed on the itocK Island road to-day. No trouble on any roads. COLORADO. Shops Closed at Denver. Denver, July 27. The Kansas Pacific closed their shops here temporarily yes terday, on account of the railroad trou bles. There are no indications of a strike here. Notes from Yesterday's Telegrams. The strike on the Michigan Central is closed and trains are on time. The Missouri Pacific railroad has com menced running freight trains. The Toledo working men who were driven out by the mob have resumed work. Manufacturing establishments in San Francisco are discharging Chinese em ployes. The Hongkong steamer from San Fran cisco yesterday, too- an unusually large passenger list. Frank Norbock. leader of the commune in Chicago for several years, was killed in the riots on Thursday. The employes of the Texas Central rail road have struck, demanding a restoration of the January standard of wages. Freight traffic is interdicted.- The houses of several Chinamen in San Francisco were attacked Thursday night, but owing to the vigilance of the patrols there was no general outbreak. The police suffered in Chicago on ac count of instructions to avoid killing if possible. It is understood that hereafter blank cartridges will not be used. JameB J. White, a member of the Chi cago Board of Trade, was killed Thursday night while on duty as a special policeman in the suburban village of Lawndale. VariohB citizens of San Francisco have received threatening notices. The President of the Safety committee received notification that his city residence and business establishment in San Raphael would be burned. Charles Crocker and W. S. O'Brien were also threatened. Passenger traffic on all roads except the Canada Southern has been resumed. Freight trains on the New York Central, Erie, and on the other minor lines are running on time. Ihere is a complete blockade of freight tratho on tbe Laae Shore. Tbe engineers refuse to run with green hand. The Mayor of St. Louis has issued a proclamation, announcing his ability to preserve order with the aid of the extensive organizations made, forbidding, generally and singularly, performances of tbe kind that nave contributed to disorder, and warning all of the consequences of disturbing the public peace or interfering win. men at worK. A committee of engineers of the Dela ware, Lackawanna and western road yesterday morning waited on Superintendent Reaeoner, and made a proposition to go to work at once at the company's terms, provided the firemen be allowed to do the same, and that the company give them their old wages as soon aa times get better. Tbe proposition was laid before President Sloan, and he immediately agreed to it. It haB been ascertained certainly that in the Chicago riots on 1 hursday four teen persons were killed, tbree mortally wounded, and twenty seriously wounded. This is probably considerably short of the full list, as tbe rioters carried away dead and wounded who cannot now be ac counted for. It is difficult to obtain in formation from the rioters side, for when ever a person begins to make inquiries he is suspected oi being a reporter and is at tacked. In declining the demands of the em ployes of the Baltimore and Ohio railroad for an increase of wages, Vice President King presents facts and figures showing the great reduction in rates of traffic since 1861, and believes these will satisfy every reasonable man in the employ of the company that the wages they demand cannot be paid. He calls attention to the fact that the Baltimore and Ohio was the last company which competes for the great trade of the West that made the re duction of ten per cent. It is known that General Hancock has been ordered to Pittsburg and that Gov ernor Hartranft, as Commander-in-Chief of the State troops, left Philadelphia tor Pittsburg yesterday alternoon. Apart from this, nothing is known of the move ments of the militia, but tbe general lm pression is that by a quiet movement they will take possession of the Pennsylvania road before the strikers nave time to rather in sufficient force to offer resist- ance. They will then proceed to send out freigutB east and weet. Call for Redemption. Washington, July 27.

A fellow lodger named Finnegan is suspected of having thrown Maloney from ths window during a quarrel. The Chief of Police of Reading, Penn., only escaped instant death, when the military fired on the mob tbere on Monday, by having a thick memorandum book in his pocket. He was struck squarely in tbe breast by a bullet, but the book turned it aside. A German named Jacob Hock, while in a quarrel with his neighbors at Fough-keepsie, New York, Thursday night, fired into a crowd. His gun was loaded with bird shot. Three persons were hurt, all of whom, It is thought, will reoover. Hock was arrested. The latest information from the Indian country is to tbe effect that Chief Joseph is occupying a position naturally fortified, twelve miles from Pierce City; that ne is constantly receiving accessions to his forces, and that his intention is to return to the neighborhood of Walla Walla and give General Howard battle. The inhabitants of Pierce City are believed to be in great danger, and appeals have been made for assistance in effecting their removal.St. Louia is endeavoring to establish a direct trade with South Ameriaa. An agent for twentyfive of the leading manufacturing and commercial houses of that city recently Btarted for Venezuela.

A patch of Canada thistles was discov ered in the Military Park at Indianapolis the otbery day, and the attention of tbe authorities was directed to the weed. The Chairman of the Common Council com mittee on Parks went out to make a personal investigation of the thistles, in tbe course of which he stirred up a nest of bumble-bees. The insects briskly swarmed out to the attack, assailed the Alderman's head, made a lodgment on bis left ear, and he has not had any interest in Canada thistles since. Sharp-witted boys are said to be reduc ing the receipts of tbe Union Ferry company in New York at the rate of $30,000 per annum, by buying up terry tickets and retailing tbem. The company will not sell direct to tbe street Arabs, but they get adults to buy twentyfive cents worth of tiosets tor them at a time, ine purchaser then gets his passage for nothing, and the boy gets sixteen tickets for twentyfive cents, which he sells so as to make a profit of seven centB. The company growls, but there seems to be no Foreign. Peaoe rumors are in circulation at Vi enna. Great military activity in Constanti nople is reported. The fa!l of Edhem Pasha, Grand Viz ier, is believed to be imminent. It is believed the Russians have com pleted their line around Rustchuk. Recent events have developed an un derstanding under which Roumanian troops are to be called upon when needed by the Russians. A dispatch from Adrianople, Thursday evening, says euileman rasha baa been defeated at Karabunor, with the loss ol ten guns, and that his army is retreating on Adrianople. Effect or Sunlight on Poisons. Atlantic Monthly. A distinguished English physician, in a recent experiment, has furnished, as he thinks, another interesting proof of the salutary influence of sunlight. The poison of the cobra, which he received from India on ivory points, was exposed in a glass bottle to the sunlight, a portion of them being wrapped in paper. He found that on some of the points that had been exposed to the light the poison had become inert, while on those in the same bottle that hod been wrapped in paper the poison still retained its vital activity. He argued from this that sunlight might in the same way destroy the poison of small pox, scarlet and typhoid fevers. Whether this is so or not, there is no doubt about the healthful power of sunshine. It is unwise to shut it out of our dwellings. Invalids especially need its cheerful influence. At this time the air from out of doors should be freely ad-, mitted to our dwellings, I

OFFICIAL PAPER OF THE CITY Indications for Tennessee and the Ohio Valley Stationary or higher pressure; warmer, clear or partly cloudy uieafAer, and occasional light rains, with southerly winds. Gold closed in New York yesterday at 3054. The dispatcher indicate a ceasation of railway hostilities at various important points in the country. The prospects in this city are not, to say the least, so un promising as they were twentyfonr hours ago. It has been represented that the strike heie is managed by twentyfive or thirty persons who hail from other points; that in fact the strike never bad consequential local encouragement, and that the body of the men employed on the various branches of the Pittsburg, Cincinnati and St. Louis railway are ready to resume the running of trains as soon as the outside influence withdraws or is removed. Representatives of the strikers claim that they are stronger now than at any previous time. From Cincinnati, however, we have the re port that there' is no obstruction there to the movement of all trains ; that in fact local freight trainB are running, and that through freight would be started if there was no detention at other places. This could not be the can if the strike was unanimous on all divisions of the Panhandle. If it is true that the property of the company is held under unlawful embargo in this city by a squad delegated from some other point, whose influ ence alone interrupts railroad business, the solution of the matter ought to be easy and expeditious. The men who belong here, and who are most intimately .concerned in the present difficulties, ought ito be able to point out those whose inter- rests are elsewhere. This done, the trouble would be "reduced to its lowest terms,' mul would be easily disposed of. Almost a Weddlnir. Cibclbville, Ohio, July 27, To the Editor Of the Ohio State Journal : We almost had a wedding last evening, A sewing machine agent won the love of one of our city ladies, and succeeded so well in his suit that the happy day was to come on last evening ; but, alas "there is many a slip 'twixt the cup and lip." The guests were invited, the cake baked, the wedding trousseau made, ana even the ice cream brought around to cool the fevered guests, ine parson the guests and bride waited until very late. The bridesmaid and the groomsman were there, with their lamp filled with oil, awaiting the glad coming of the groom, but he never came. He is not . here yet, and it may be he will not. Some of the boys think he went to Columbus to change his hat, and has been mistaken for a striker and arrested. If he is there, please send him home. He is wanted right now. , Incident or tbs Strike. 8t.

The seat of local war has been moved even farther away from news centers tban yesterday, and it now in the vicinity of Archer avenue and Halatead streets, some four miles away. The mob began to gather there at an early hour this morning, but not in great force, and no contest has taken place as yet. At noon it was reported that the crowds were gathering far out on the prairie, and were contemplating a descent with the stock yards gang as allies. JNo cars are allowed to run on rJalstead street north of the viaduct. .None are running on Clinton and Jefferson streets, and the rioters have tried to stop some other lines, but without success.

Railroads Besoming; in the West. Chicago, July 27. The railroads are resuming bnsiness, both freight and passenger. They have had no trouble with their men at any time except in relation to their wages, and it is believed they have generally either compromised that question or left it to arbitrators. The officials and men are equally reticent on the subject. Toe Illinois Central tooK thirtyone cars of grain this morning and are running all trains as usual. The men, with few exceptions, appeared at the oar shops this morning ready for duly. Their behavior is highly complimented by the officials. The Michigan Cen tral is running all passenger trains on time, east and west, and all branches of the Freight Department will be ready to go to work with its old force as soon as it is certain that the company's properly here will be protected from the mob. Chicago, Burlington and (juincy passen ger trains are rumuug muug ma vuiui; line without trouble. Freight trains are not yet running, and nothing definite regarding the time of resuming them is known, but the orncers expect no luriuer trouble. The Lake Shore and Michigan Southern is Bending passengers through as usual, but freights are small on that line. Un the (Jhicago, Rock island and Pacific business is resumed on every branch and in every department. military Ordera. Chicago, July 27. The following special orders, No. 60, were issued here to-day, irom military headquarters: 1. Colonel John a. King, Ninth in fantry, is hereby placed in immediate command ot an the united states troops assembled in Chicago, Illinois. He will obey and execute such orders only as may come to him from these headquarters. Lieutenant Colonel Frederick v. Grant, aid-de-camp to the Lieutenant General commanding the division, is assigned to duty with Colonel King, Ninth infantry, to whom he will report, By command of Lieutenant General Sheridan. R. C. Drum, Assistant Adjutant General. Lam Hlgbt'a Plupatehes from Chicago. Chicago, July 27. The railroad employes here propose to organize a grand army to put down the Communists, whose riotous aots they disavow and denounce. The Bjard of Trade resumed business at 2:30 this afternoon, and withdrew the action of yesterday suspending the rules. They indicate by this that they consider the labor troubles at an end, or at leait under the control of the lawful authorities. Not all the people of Chicago share their confidence, but no further violent outbreak is expected at this time. 6 p. m. About noon the police arrested N. J. Clinch, a grocer and liquor dealer, and the moBt prominent agitator of the present lawless movement. He has been present in all attacks on the police, and has done more than any one man to precipitate bloodshed and incite riots. He will be severely dealt with, as the proof of his criminality is complete. All kinds of incendiary reportB were ourrent this evening, but none could be traced to a reliable head. Only one firs was reported during theday, and that was small and did little damage. The orders of policemen have been modified so that to-day they are instructed to shoot down any man who inter feres with them in the discharge of their dutv. or who is belligerent as a rioter. This modification of original instructions is undoubtedly on account of the un- stinted denunciation on all sides which the temporizing policy has met with. The strike of the West Side street rail road barn men is nothing of an alarming character, though several determined characters are among them. They say it U their intention merely to lay off a few days and see what is going on. They dis claim any intention of violence or riot ous proceedings. The regulars have been itching for an unrestricted right to clean out the mob, and such a proposition has been made but not accepted by the city authorities. The tanners, who struck en masse dur ing the warmest part of the controversy, have to-day resumed work. The Mayor to-day issued a notice call ing on all laborers to resume work, and promising them and their employers protection. Subsequently he issued the following proclamation . "The city authorities having dispersed all lawlessness in the city, and law and order being restored, I now urge and request all business men and employes generally to resume work and give employment, as much as possible, to their workmen. I consider this the first duty of our business community, I am now amply able to protect them and their workmen. Let every one resume operations and report any interference at polios headquarters. The citizens' organizations muBt continue in force, and on no account relax their vigilance, as the cause of tbe trouble is not local, and la not yet removed. All such organizations should form themselves into permanent bodies, continue on duty, and report regularly as heretofore. M, Heath, Mayor." The Pittsburg and Ft. Wayne railroad started out a train at 5:15 this afternoon, with a guard ot tortytour policemen. A mob this afternoon attempted to intimidate the workmen in the Phosnix distillery, on the North Side, but were themselves scattered by the police. The last accounts from the. Jlalstead street viaduct are to the effect that the military have been removed and all hi quiet. it is rumored that tbe communists are holding a meeting some miles from tbe oity, snd that a force has been sent after them. A foreman of a car shop to-day said It wss the intention of all workmen to re turn to work Monday morning. Among the establishments which resumed business to-day were firms employing 600 to 700 men, who were obliged to close by the rioters, though their men were anxious to work. Two companies of infantry and three of cavalry, direct from Fort McPherson, Nebraska, fully armed, arrived here during the day, and are waiting orderB from the Secretary of War, Police headquarters nave been notibed of the arrest of Sardy's gang of Plug- Uglies, who have been going about intimidating workmen and compelling them to quit. Members of the Board of Trade to-day raised $3500 for the family of Mr. White, killed at Lawndale by a rioter. A partial list of arrested yesterday and to-day shows one hundred and twelve in all the stations. They are almost invariably of the lowest foreign element, and many of them are well known disturbers of the peace. Latest from Chicago The Hob Itelted. Chicago, July 27. The night has been quiet up to this hour, and there is no prospect of any renewal of hostilities. The mob has not made its appearance, and despite active scouring of tbe prairie beyond the oity by the military not a vestige of yeterday's rabble can be found. A history of the day's work would be comprised in the tale of the harmless evolutions of cavalry and police. Not a head has been broken, and not over a dozen shots fired, and they at random, without effect. The mob, as a mob, has melted away, and its component parts are missing.Tbe Peoria Hob Demoralised. Peoria, July 27. The leaders of the mob here were caught last night by the police, and about thirty put in jail. Their followers were deterred from attempting their resoue by a few blank shots. The jail was guarded last night by military. The Board of Trade guarded the gas works and water works, and this morning the leaderlees mob is demoralized. Every passenger train went out on time this morning, escorted by a equad of troops, and it is believed the trouble is now eiiJed, though troops remain for emergencies. Additional arrests this morning com pleted the company of ringleaders now in jail. Factories olosed yesterday are run ning to-day. Steel Mills Cloaed atjollet. Joliet, July 27. The failure of Meeker & Co.. of Chicago, on account ol strikes, has resulted in the closing of the steel mills here. The establishment be ing two months in arrears to its employes, and threats of violence are being made by the latter, an effort to pay them is being made. Inlet at tculncjr. OtjiNoy. July 27.

Yours in the Nation s welfare, Ex. Coat, of Union Wobkingmkn, To the Hon. Homy Overatoli, Mayor of St. Louts: Sie We. the authorized representa tives of the industrial population ot Bt. Louis, have called on you to request your cooperation in devising means to procure food lor those actually in a aesiuuiecou dition. In order to save a useless waste of your time it is necessary that we at once say that all offers of work during this national strike cannot be considered bv us as a remedy under the present cir cumstances, for we are fully determined to hold out until tbe principles we are con' tending for are carried. It is tae earn est desire of every honest toiler in St. Louis to accomplish their purpose in as orderly a way as this dire contingency will allow. The contingency of food is already being felt. Therefore, to avoid plunder, arson or violence by persons made desperate by destitution, we are ready to concur with your Honor in taking timely measure to supply the immediate wants of tbe foodless, and re spectfully offer the following suggestions, namely : If it is not in your power to relieve this distress, we request that a con vention of the merchants be called by you to meet and confer with ns as to the shortest and best way to procure food for our distressed brothers and their families.

In the name of all workingmen's associations, By the Executive committee of the United Workingmen's Party of St. Louis. The Cltlaea Soldiery Captures tbe Depot at St. Louis. St. Louie. July 27. The general out look this morning was very much more encouraging, and the authorities end citi zens felt as though the crisis was passed and there would be no more trouble. At military and police headquarters the tone was more quiet, but there was no relaxa tion of vigilance. Largs shipments of arms arrived during the night and morning, and tbe authorities immediately commenced equipping militia companies organised by the citizens. These oommands march through the city to the Four Courts, where they receive guns, cartridge boxes and orders. The companies first formed were ordered out on guard duty and left the Four Courts, going in various directions. Their places were immediately taken by commands formed later, who are being constantly drilled in- the manual for loading and firing. The authorities now explain their passive policy, and tbe reason why the strikers have been allowed to go so far. Up to last nigbt there were lees tban one thousand guns in possession of the military throughout the entire city. Now five thousand men will be armed before night. Twelve companies recsived breech loading guns up to twelve o'clock. At an early honr two full companies were sent to the City Hall and relieved the clerks and officials who have been doing duty there. At eleven o'clock General John W. Noble, with a battalion of four hundred men, under Captain Silas Bent, marched out of ths Four Courts and proceeded to the Union Dspot. Ueneral JNobie established his headquarters in the depot building, A large crowd has virtually had possession of the depot Binoe Tuesday. The battalion was dissolved into companies, guns were loaded, and the crowd was charged with fixed bayonets and driven out of the depot and yards. The move ments of militia were greeted with obeers and yells. A man who seemed to be the leader of the mob element present was seized and put under charge of a guard. the authorities announce that the depot will bs held, and that interference with trains there will not be permitted. A consultation . was held at headqaartare this forenoon by Mayor Oyerstolz, Gen eral A. J. Smith and prominent citizens, at which it was dscided that as soon as arms have been fully distributed, which will be this afternoon, the announcement will be made that guards will be furnish ed for all shops and factories the proprie tors of which are willing or want lo re sume work.

Effect or Sunlight on Poisons. Atlantic Monthly. A distinguished English physician, in a recent experiment, has furnished, as he thinks, another interesting proof of the salutary influence of sunlight. The poison of the cobra, which he received from India on ivory points, was exposed in a glass bottle to the sunlight, a portion of them being wrapped in paper. He found that on some of the points that had been exposed to the light the poison had become inert, while on those in the same bottle that hod been wrapped in paper the poison still retained its vital activity. He argued from this that sunlight might in the same way destroy the poison of small pox, scarlet and typhoid fevers. Whether this is so or not, there is no doubt about the healthful power of sunshine. It is unwise to shut it out of our dwellings. Invalids especially need its cheerful influence. At this time the air from out of doors should be freely ad-, mitted to our dwellings, I |
