Shoto engine and caboose that had been
halted alongside of It. The rioters had Just
been set fico for their dinner hour , nnd
thousands gntheiod about the spot. A lot ot
offal was first thrown and struck one of the
" thrcu 1'inkeiton men who weio on tlio
lealmoso. This was greeted with yells of do-
liL'ht by tlio mob , arrd was followed by a tor
rent of stones , sticks and other missiles.

the engine steamed back to the Like Shore

took dinner. Odleer Michael Begley , of thu
Town of Lake police , was sttuck on the face
with a Hying club nnd Iris jaw broken. A
1'lnkerton man named John Lyon was also
hurt , but not seiionsly. Four of the iloters

This vvas at tuc stock yards ' 'T" of the Lake
Shore tiack , and a Haltlmoto & Ohio train
coming along was also derailed. This was
followed by a Lake Shoio stock train , which
was wrecked , making a complete blockade of

At a general meeting to-night of the Chicago
cage switchmen to taku action legaiding tlio
Lnko Shore Rtrlko , it WHS decided that iinan- '

The usual two car loads of Pinker ton
men arrived at Hoot Mi'eet shortly utter-

mediately started by the L-.iko Shore
company. Theontlrc Pinker ton force , with the
exception ol a do/on men , mo now aimed
wllh lilies and a guaid Is sent out with every
train and accompanies It to Coletown. While
fhcio seems no likelihood of any tumble
around Chicago to day except , perhaps , at
thu stockyaidH , there Is considerable anxiety
manifested on both sides as to the piobable
action to bo taken by the Lake ( shore switch
men at other points.
Kiirflno 4 IS escorted by thirty special police
men at 11 rids 11101 nlng was sent into the
stockyaida. On anivlug near the packing
hpuse.s intense excitement prevailed. Kveiy

with workmen who yelled ollenslve epithets

trouble when tlio woikmen went to dinner.
At 1" o'clock the Lake Shoio engine attached
to a tool ear and caboose was stopped behind
tlio Chicago Packing and I'lovision
compaiij'.s slaughter house by u
train of cars In liont. As
the packing house whistles blew the signal
lor the dinner hour a crowd of at least two
thousand employes gathered In the vicinity.
-Tho windows of Iho packing house , Imme
diately bcsldo the train , were thronged with
workmen who began to jell at the officers
and In a few moments the wildest excitement
picvallcd. Some ollal was thrown Irom the
window sand .shuck ono of the three Pinkerton -
ton men who weie on top of the car.
This was a slirnal lor a shower
( if stones and clubs which weie
thiown trom tlio windows and roofs of the

on tlm jaw by onuot the clubs arrd seiionsly
injured. Tlio Pinker ion men r.il-ed their
lilies to shoot but weio restrained by a de
puty shei 111. A shot at that moment would
undoiibti diy have precipitated a serious riot.
' 1 ho crowd wns H tally broken up when tlio
whistles summoned them back to work at

UmcAdo , June 30. [ Special Telegram to
the lint : . ] A meeting of the Brotherhood of
Hallway Postal Clerks , which Postmaster
General Vitas deemed .revolutionary and for
belonging to which he'ordered the Mimmary
discharge of a number of clerks last week , Is
to bo livid at Indianapolis on Filday of this
week. The members of the organization do
rrot appear In any wlso deterred by the Older
of the postmaster general , and declare that
Ihej will persist In their right to hold a meet-
Infer their mutual bcnclil desulte the orders
fiom Washington , In a communication
Irom a member of the order , which will ap
pear In print tn-moriow , he savs :
When .Mr. Vllas assumed clnuuc of the
po.stolcodepaitmcnt ! ! , I think I am safe In
saying thatuvery republican eleik in thlsscr-
vice expected to bo removed just ns soon as a
democrat could he selected to till his place.
Thebettcrclassof ; clerks weie sci-king other
employment , and many succeeded , which no
doubt caused-Mr. Vilaa to feel that the ser-
vicuwoiilil soon become eilpplcd and Im
paired. Hence he issued the follow Ing order :
The communication then quotes the special
notice of the postmnstergeneral , dated March
ill , 1S8In which he announces that "rall-
v\a > eleiks who have become ellleient and
valuable men against whom no just com
plaint of neglect , Inattention , or waul of
lidclltj , honesty 01 ellicleney can be biought.
and w ho have not tinned their attention to
political labor dining the seivice , need have
no learnt being dlstuibed so long as they
continue to lender merltous and faithful
suivice.1' The writer then says :
If Mr. Vlhis had said , what ho Is practicing
n systematic removal ot eleiks that re
movals would bemadu just as rapidly as pos
sible , then the clerks In thu serviio would
have , in many Instances , secured other em
ployment or would luuu expected a removal
any day. But ho issued this special notice
letter nnlooked lor and without solicitation
on the p.ut of thu clerks. Now , wliun a
clerk Is removed , hu Is branded at homo as
being either dishonest or incOlclciit , as the
public at laigu thinks the p > stmaster general
is complying strictly with his letter.e'ccept
inthuciisu ot Siipeiintendent Burl , ot the
tilth division , whnictuscd lo comply with a
icqtic.st ol the postmaster geneiiu , that 130
eleiks In Ids department be recommended to
tire dniMiiment lor removal .by a em tain
given time , .Mr. Burl's refusal vvas on the
Ktoiiinl that It would impair tlie sirviee in
his division , hence his removal. Many re
movals have been made whollv without any
cause whatever. Theieloie this oigaui/atiun
was Dlleeted , in onler that Postmaster Cien-
oral Vllas could be assisted by tire clerks In
doing ju t us he volnntailly agioed to do. It
Is not the intention to ask torn cleik'h rein
statement where , upon investigation , It ap-
peais to bo sulllcient cause lor removal.
The communication declared that it is the
Intention to continue the organizationdespite
thu attempt to frighten the. clerk-sand require
Ihc fulfillment by the postmaster ceneial of
his promises. The announcement that the
meeting Is to bo held has occasioned consid
erable eoiisteination , ns it is declined that

ot the Uock Island railroad , "that peace will
bu patched up In the railroad war. It may lie
delayed , however , by the opening ot the Wis

There vvas no change In either the freight

tive measures aie being taken to biing about
peace. Tlio St. Paul , Bmllngtoii. Uock

anxiety for peace , and their willingness to
attend a meeting to bilng this about. On the
Mb of July the Wisconsin Central opens bus
iness. Now roads usually begin with rate
slabjjiiigfor the puipo.so ot getting themselves
talked about. It Is luaied that this will be
tlio policy of the lust competitor tor Chicago
business. The Chicago , Burlington & Aoith-
crn will be opened in August. It these roads
are to out , the prospects are lml. But as
each la simply a now line of an old load , tlio

total reorganization of all the old pools will ,
however , necessarily lollovv.

principal case Is that against John Oiton , ono
of the leading saloonists of the city. X.enk

nnd A. It. Smith the complaining witness.
All sorts of opinions have been oxuiesscd
to day as to the piobablo outcome ot the
action , IJio taloonlsts are evidently exer
cised , and realize that there is a possibility of
their being indicted. One leading liquor
man to-day ventured the prediction that clos
ing the saloons will throw a largo number of
buildings on the nmiket for rental. Another
thought they would all catch it. Another
realized the fact that the prohibitionists have
the law and hold a heavy club over them , but
btated positively that trie sale of liquor could
not bo Mopped in Jiroux Cty. | There is no
doubt of the fact that a gieat marry citizens
are In favor of a high reatrietivo license. The
evening paper , in ( .Tosins ; un article on the
subject , nays : "Any aits of violence to per
son or property ill bo discountenanced by
all peed citizens. Good older , safety of per
son and property mu t bo pre crvcd.nnd men

The peed name of the city Is moro precious

many , who did not know that any such
movement was on toot. The convention met
yesterday , and consisted of representatives
from the seventeen local assemblies of the
Knights of Labor located In the ninth con
gressional district. Thcie were seventy dele
gates , and equally divided between republi
cans and democrats. They held a secret ses
sion , which lasted from 'J o'clock In the after
noon until about 1 o'clock this morning.
The pm pose was to discuss the congressional
situation. It was conceded that the
two probable candidates would bo Major Ly-
mau on the republican ticket nnd Colonel
Kcatley on tlledcmocratlc ticket. The Iccl-
luir was strongly in favor of Colonu'l Keatley ,
only two ot the delegates objecting ro him ,
and these two not stienuously. It was
deemed ruadvlsablo to make a lonmil nom
ination , as such a move would bo in viola
tion ot the inles of the order. The conven
tion was simply an advisory one , and Its re
sults aio not binding upon members ot 'the

LONDON , Juno 80. [ Special Cablecram to
the I5rr : : . ] Lord. Salisbury , In his speech last
night , said ho. wished to repel Gladstone's
suggestion that Loul Carnaivonhad done
anything not consistent with the mostscnunr-
lens honor. Loul Cunarvon Infoimedhim
( Salisbury ) of what had passed In the inter
view with Paurcll. The Infoi ination exactly
coincided with Carnarvon's statement In the
house of lords. Ho ( Sallsbui'i ) told Carnar
von in the interview with him that his ob
jection was so strong that oven it the conservatives
vatives adopted the policy in laver of a par
liament In Dublin , ho would refuse to join
the ministry. Ho deJled I'arnoll to give the
slightest pi oots of his Mundeious assertion
regarding Lord Itandolph Cliiuchlll , who had
ncvci vai'ied in his uuchanglnir hostility to
the idea of an Ji Mi legislation. There is no
giound to say that Carnarvon resigned be
cause liqvvas pledged to other than the gov
ernment's policy. His ( Salisbury's ) state
ments w'oro supported by his four teen col
leagues. Ho criticized Mr. Gladstone's
"Imblt oi leaving loopholes through which
to escaiio from every position ho
assumes. " Gladstone , h6 said , lnid tried
to palm n miserable travesty ot history upon
hs | Liverpool audiences , Gladstone's letter of
fering to assist the conselvativo government
In settling the Irish quesion did not mention
homo rule. Ho ( Salisbury ) regarded it as
another loop hole. Gladstone now confessed
that he had not said a vvoid against homo
rule lor llfty ycais , yet ho allowed hi-4 col
leagues to iiledgo thoiiuelves to help in the
dctcnso of n united pailiamoiit. The only
way In which the question could bo settled
was by continuing the process of union till
the lush welcomed It as the Scotch did.
Gladstone had taught many splendid things ,
but what ho taught most was that England
could bo bquee/.ed when Ireland chose.
