About twenty-five deputes are now in charge. The strikers camped in a woods near and an attack on the is expected the moment they attempt to go to work- The rioters are nearly all Huns, the-element forming the backbone of the strike. About IJOO. strikers visited the Fort Hill, Grace and Paul works last night, and drove the men away, notifying them that if they were found at work to-day they would kill every Ameri-can workman in and burn the plants. Sheriff Wilhelm Was at Yanderbilt to-day and swore in fifty them with and stationed them around the- plants.

Braddock works of the W. J. Rainey Company were driven from the yards to-day by rioters, and the plants now shut down, as are all the plants of the Eainey Company. A delegation of rioters also visited the Wheeler and Morrell works of the McCInre Company and compelled the men workinc to lay down their tools and vacate the grounds.

The men were found lying in different sections of the woods and all bad bullet holes in their bodies and were more or less beaten up Where they came from or by whom they killed is vet a question, and the discovery is the sensation of the day in the coke region. It is supposed these Hungarians were shot yesterdav afternoon by deputies during an attack on the "Bradford works, and crawled out into the woods to die. In the conflict at these works there were of shots fired and one Hungarian was killed outright during the attack. The found have been identified as members of this mob. 'They are still lying in the woods and the authorities refuse to care for them.

A dozen persons were killed in the district yesterday as an outcome of the strike, including Chief Engineer Paddock, of the Frick Company. Six of the mob that killed Paddock were. shot by a pursuing posse. As a result'the entire coke region is in a high state of excitement to-day, and fears of more bloodshed and 'the destruction of property are entertained.

Four hundred strikers camped near- here last night, and at 9 o'clock started for Mount Pleasant to visit the. works along the line. Sheriff McCann has froiu 25 to 125 deputies at each of the plants, and serious trouble may be pected. The deputies are well armed and have orders to arrest or shoot anyone guilty of a misdemeanor.

Many of tlie workmen are also armed, so that the mob will be certain to receive a reception. A crowd of 600, is inarching on Mount Braddock, and another mob.of nearly 1,000 is on the and considerable property vay 0 Lemont and- Oliver. After Calls have made upo'n the sheriff and deputies are being sworn in. The dispatches report about' two-thirds of the works now closed.

There is talk of a posse of Connellsville' citizens forming to pre-' vent them going across the river.

The arrest of- President L. K. Davis, -of the local Mine Workers' and his lodgment in the jaiil here to-daj' has placed the strikers in a state of bewilderment throughout the region and the abandonment of the strike within the next twelve hours is being predicted. President Davis is charged with murder, and therefore cannot be released on bail. A mob of 1,200 riot-, ers, put-of which Davis was camped last night in the woods near Scottdale and did not make a move during the night.

They will not move to-day until amee ting of delegates from overthe region can be held! They fully expected Davis to return to them and map out a plan of operation, but now a new leader must be chosen'or the movement will fall flat. There is general consternation in the ranks of the strikers, and many favor of giving up the fight.

The Hill Farm mines were overrun by a horde of strikers to-day and the workmen driven from the grounds, despite the fact that deputies were on guard.

SUNK IN THE STRAITS.

MACKISAC ISLAND, April steamer Minneapolis was sunk in the Straits this morning, either by collision or the ice. No tidings have been received" frpm-the crew, but they are sup- ppsed to be safe on board tte schooner Dieso which the lost steamer had in "tow. The, Minneapolis and San Diego passed Mackinaw City last night at 8:30, bound down with grain from Chicago. This was the last seen of her, but all-the morning a large amount of has been coming "ashore marked with the name "Minneapolis." Several life-preservers similarly marked have been picked up on the "beach. At 9 o'clock a- large schooner supposed to be the San Diego was sighted going down the Straits under sail: It seems unlikely that the schooner was unable to save the crew pf the lost steamer.

The Minneapolis and the San Diego left Chicago at 1 o'clock Sunday for Buffalo; The steamerhad on 48,577 bushels of wheat, shipped by A. G. BuelK Tlie cargo was insured for 6S7 in the. following companies: London Assurance, British and Foreign, $7,602: Commercial Union, North America, Sun, The steamer was insured divided as follows: Smith, Davis of Buffalo, Vance of Milwaukee, and Elphicke of She is owned by Parker Detroit. She was built in 1873, the same year tbat the Barnum, which was lost in.

the Straits yesterday, came out.

The loss must therefpre go on the already overburdened account last season on the books of the insurance companies.

The San Diego arrived off this port shortly before noon, and the tug Favorite landed the shipwrecked men The Minneapolis encountered heavy weather during the passage down from Chicago, and just before entering the Straits sprang a leak that soon proved beyond the control of the pumps and siphons. The steamer -filled, so rapidly the crew were compelled to confine preparations for her abandonment to a brief limit of time. WHISKY TRUST WRONG.

CHICAGO, April 5 Gibbons to-day sustained the demurrers filed by Attorney-General Moloney to the pleas of the Whisky Trust to the quo war- ranto proceedings. The pleas set up in general were that there was no unlawful combination as charged in the information and asked that the quo war- ranto be dismissed. To this, the Attorney-General demurred, raising the issue hat the pleas were insufficient and tne defendant alleged trust should be compelled to answer more fullv. Judge Gibbons sustained the demurrer, holding the pleas insufficient and will give the defendant farther time to plead again. In the course of his opinion Judge Gibbons said: It appears without contradiction that this defendant corporation has absprbed eighty one other corporations, and that it controls, the price" and, output of the product manufactured.

It is difficult to conceive what difference? it makes, so far as the public policy of the state is concerned, whether this corporation bought t.he stock of the other corporationa or made a combination- in the manner claimed by the defendant's counsel. If -the recipient of these favors, rights and franchises be a corporation created solely lor unlawful object, its existence is illegal and may be. terminated: It should require the aid of a precedent for a court to decide as a inatter oflaw that any syndicate or combination which owns and controls thirty-one distilleries and the production of the same is a dangerous com.blhation and that it should fall under the ban of outlawry as contrary to spund public policy.
