When tho reporter fur Tin; Timk.s vis-ited tho locality mentioned this morn-ing, he found the scene one of the bus-iest auimaliou. Fifty luou and twenty-fou- r teams were at work with plows luid scrapers inst west of the old ditch. Four tints erch 45 x 1 5 feet have been set up which will be used as dining aud sleeping quartern for the men employed and as stables for the horses; these, to-gether with the twenty smaller can-vases, give ln place tho appearance of a camp meeting grouud in the east.

The dead district, James MeBrido secretary, and W. P, Pernio of the united mine workers of America came here this morning an 1 visited the scene of the shooting. They held a conference with sjme of the members aud said they had secured the names of the deputies and swore out warrants for the arrest of all of them, including Captain Laner, who was in command, on a charge of murder. Tin y were served this after-noon. They gave bail at once, Gen-eral Manager Lynch of tho F'rick com-pany aud Superintendent Ramsay of the Morewood plant are made accessar-ies before the fact. Physicians gay that forty strikurs were wounded, many mortally. The excitement is increasing and the prospects of another outbreak are growing every hour. 'The report that a second attack took place in which four more were killed is pronounced untrue, but another raid is expected at any time. Tho superintendent claims he ordered the mob to hall three limes and was answered with three shots. After an-other command half the guards were ordered to tire, and a deadly volley was poured into the crowd. Tho lire was returned hotly, but their aim was poor. The killed are: Paul Dohanis, Valen-tine Zeidel, James Braohe, Jacob Shu-koskc- John Fudor, Antonio Rist and Crcsezo Miners, all Slavs, Poles and Italians. All were shot in the head, neck, or breast. Of the wounded tho uames have not been obtained. None of the (lead were naturalized.

The Eighteenth regi- - moot of this city has beeu ordered to hold itself iu readiness. Mr. Plkasant, Pa., April 2 -- At 8:45 this morning a mob of 500 men began rioting at the Standard works. They j destroyed some of the company's prop- - I ' erty aud cut the telegraph lines so no 1 warning could be sent to tho people at I I Morewood. f J About 3 o'clock the party marched to j Morewood. In the meanwhile the j wires were hurriedly repaired and I word was sent to Morewood that the J strikers would attack tho works in )?'"' threo places and had planted to do- - I stroy the whole place. I The deputy sheriffs woro soon in readiness, to receive tho at- - r i i tack. Tho men divided in three party, Captain Loner having charge of i tho party placed behind the big gate of ft the barn and stable inclosure. As the rioters passed the company's . store they raided it, and then marched to tho barn and attempted to break down the gates. They succeeded in tfA doing this, and, as they entered, Cap- - (Jl tain Louor called out to theiu to halt or HJ' they would lire upon them. Their an- -' swer was to lire, rattling a tire in the direction of the deputies, some of whom were seriously injdred. r Captain Louor thon gave the word to Ire.

"I have promised pro-tection." ho siid. "to our men and I must give it to them. When tho raiders come, obey me; lira tho first shot into the air. If the raiders do not retreat shoot a second time, and keep firing while you have f ammunition. Protect the company's property, protect the men at work and . protect your own lives. The man in my employ who runs, I will shoot dead on tho spot. Any man who is jiot will-ing to accept my tonus will please drop into the rear and I will send him home under guard." "Is everybody satisfied?" "Y'es, sir," rang out all along the line and each man was supplied with '.'0 cartridges, and under the command of the superintendent marched toacon-veniau- t point. All night the strikers were pre-paring for tho raid. Delegations heatled by drum corps marched ' to and fro to places of rendezvous. Occasionally a pistol shot could be heard in the distance. Now and then a rocket flashed into the air and from tho adjoining hilltop warning lights could be seen. There were three parties of strikers. One came from Steenevillo and another from Morehead anil a third from the mines in the neigh- - borhood. They were very noisy, cheer- - t ing and shouting and beating drums as they came along. The threo parties met and decided to make a march on ho works. ; Some of tho strikers say today that there was no intention of doing j"S any damage, but simply marched to the 1 vo'rks to intimidate those at work. The dead this morning were carriid ! into the company store at Morewood. Tho strikers demanded tho bodies of ' tho victims but were refused, and tho place is now surrounded by an armed mob of over 2000, who say they will burn everything on the premises Unless tho dead bodies are given up. The feeling is very bitter among tho work- - V men. who denounce the action of the i deputies in no uncertain terms. The Slavs and Huns are wild all over I this region and a most intense excite- - I lnoiit prevails. Great crowds aro com- - I ing iu on every train. The highways are thickly peopled, and it is openly do- - ! clared by tho strikers that they will hate revenge for their companions. I They have transferred their attentions from the plants to the deputies, whom I they vow they will kill. They say at the 5 game time that 'the works will surely be s raised Word has been passed to the j ; dtrikers all over the region that the pliootiug was without provocation; that i no violence had been offered and their animus on hearing these reports was j deep aud ' strong.

Hd Has Pmo Much to P.toify tha Italians The English Frees Very Generally :d.-- With DoFava, . Washington, April 2. Secretary Blame is transacting routine busings. There is nothing new m the Italian sit-uation. IWrou Fava has not yet made application for his passports, nor lias tne M;tr.iiis Impcralo acknowledged the receipt of liiailie's letter Sent lum yesterday, Among the first callers on tho secre-tary were the British minister and Sir ( h ii'les Topper of Canada, w ho talked with the secretary an hour, presumably about the seal tislierics, reciprocity aud other matters foremost in tne miuns of Canadian. Komi:, April 2. It is learned from re-liable sources that I'niled States minis-ter Porter-ha- done much to pacify the Italian government and w on over to his way of thinking other ministers, sev-eral of whom have been trying to in-duce the Italian premier, Maiviuis de Kmlini, to be less hasty. Tho idea of war is scouted in diplomatic aud goverumeut circles. Fava's final with-drawal has not been definitely ileeiil.nl mi. ,n 1 1. 1H S:iid that even if Fava is withdrawn, it will bo done only as the most forcible protest know n in deplomacy and not as a forerunner of a conflict between the United Slates aud Italy. The Italian cabinet ministers are in receipt of a large number of cable-grams aud letters from prominent Italians in 'ew York urging modera-tion. The Marquis de Kudmi, the Italian premier, today sent another cable mes-sage to the I'nited States on tho subject of tho New Orleans trouble, addressed to the Maniuis Imperial! tie F'rancavill, secretary of the Italian legation at Washington, to be handed to Secretary lilaiuo. The message is in reply to Hlaine's last note. Kudini says Italy lias asked nothing but the prompt institution of regular judicial proceedings against the guilty parties at New Orleans. Ho adds, it would have been absurd to ciaini ptinisument for the of-fenders without the guarantees afforded by a regular trial. The diplomatic incident, tho marquis says, can only bo considered closed w hen the federal government has de-clared the precise terms upon which the prosecutions will be commenced. In the meauliniH tho Italian govern-ment takes cognizance of the federal government's declaration, acknowledg-ing tho fact that compensation is due the families of tho victims by virtue of the treaty existing between tha two countries.

The fact that Secretary Blaine ad-dressed his last letter on the subject of the New Orleans tragedy to Marquis Imperiali. charge d'affaires, is of signi-ficance, demonstrating that the govern-ment tines not regard the rupture of diplomatic nidations caused by Baron Fava's recall as complete, llad that view been taken, tho communication w ould have been addressed to tiie Ital-ian government direct, or through the medium of Minister Porter at Home. How the matter is viewed by the Italian government will be disclosed by the reply that is made to the secretary's letter. If the charge, d'affaires replios as such, it must be construed as an that the Italian govern-ment is still represented in the United States by its legation; but if he an-nounces that ho is without authority to reply and sugrests a transmittal of the secretary's communication to Rome, it may be taken as evidence that direct diplomatic relations between the two countries are at an end.

Like most Salt Lake mud it is deep and tatnnmlcss. last night the glare of the electric light was reflected from tho bosom of this mud, and a hundred thousand and one stars twinkled and danced around its mir-rored depths. This morning a pole held suspended a sheet of card hoard on which appeared the flaming admonition: ' Danger!

As tho broad humor of the legend and tho quaint thrust at the awful condition of the streets became upparent. ripples of laughter and ob-servations profound and occasionally not altogether harmonious in sound, awoke the echoes of tho morning air. Many people really believed the state-ment of the sign and gave the mud a careful berth. Tbny Dlit Tliatr Duty. PiTTSRi Kii, April 2. H.

COMMENT OF THIS ENGLISH FitESS. The Itritiahera Are Inclined to Taka tha Side of tha ltallnna. CiiiCA(ii), April a. Tho Telegraph says: It could scarcely appear practical to Italy to be told it was uncertain w hether the murdered men were Ital-ians. They were lynched and tho lynching palliated on the ground that they were members of an Italian secret society. The contrast between tho savage precipitancy oi tne slayers ana the complacency of the municipal au-thorities of Nov Orleans and tho delib-erate scepticism of Blaine might well moved a less high spirited nation than Italy to resolute measures.

It is unfortunate of President Harrison's advisers that they are compelled to sul-fur fur errors for which they aro not primarily responsible.

The Chronicle says: "Baron F'ava is not entitled to fix tho day and hour of redress.
