[Boston Transcript.J Hon. William C. Lovoring has returned from Europe whoro ho has been looking after the interests of thc American Cot ton Company. He found tho spinners of England and tho Continent using tho Koumllap Halo with tho greatest satis faction. They are keenly alive to all the money saving advantages of tho now system. Tho case with which the bah; is hand hal in transit anti at tho mill, de lights them. The low cost of freight and insurance, tho immunity from lire in tho mill anti tho fact that there arc no hoops, wires or metal of any kimi used in baling are features that espe cially appeal to the thrifty Kuropean spinners. Mr. Lovering had the opportunity to address a meeting of prominent cotton manufacturers of Lancashire on the merits of the Koumllap Lalo, and by the courtesy of Messrs. Howard and Bul lough, of Acorington, they wero invited to witness a d?monstration of the run ning of tinco bales of cotton directly on tho apron of a scutcher. Nothing could havo been moro perfect or absolutely satisfactory than the working of the cot ton in tins way. The. scutcher was started with three bales upon tho apron anti ran ol? at once without a hitch or in terruption. The noise made by thc boaters was a steady, deep anti healthful hum, showing that thc machine was doing its work without laboring in thc least. The lap t hat was made was clean anti oven running, weighing sixteen ounces to tho yard. Tho spinners took tim greatest, inter est in the demonstration and with out; accord expressed their complete satis faction with tho operation. They saitl that they saw in tho now system a great revolution in cotton manufacturing. They aro all anxious to buy the now hale, and aro ready to give orders al once. They wero surprised and gratified to BOO that tho scutchor was an ordinary scutcher, such as they were using in ail their mills. Thoy batt been led to think that it required special machinery for tho purpose, whereas it only required a little heavier apron to carry the bales or laps, weighing two hundred and sixty pounds cacii. ?

SIX ?(I!Ill) Ililli? WOUNDED. Several Companies ol Militia Have Boon Ordorod Out-Tho Situation ls Critical. CAKTKKVIM.K, II,I", Soptonibor 17. Carterville was1 the Hcone of a bloody riot about noon to-day in which six ne groes wore killed and ono fatally wouud od, whilo two others rocoived Blight wounds. Trouhlo has . hoon blowing sinco tho militia was recalled by Gov. Tnnnor last Monday. Tho whito minors of this placo havo rofusod to allow tho nogro minors to como into town, always meeting thom and ordering thom back. To-day, howovor, thirteen negroes, nil armed, marched into town, goiug to tho Illinois Contrai depot, whore thoy ox changed a fow words with tho whito miners thoro. Thon tho nogroos pulled their pistols and opened dre on tho whites, who at onco returned tho /ho. A running light was kopt up. Tho ne groes scattered, somo hoing closoly fol lowed by tho whites up tho Main streot, whilo tho remainder lied down tho rail road track. Hero tho execution was done, all who wont through town escap ing. After tho light was over six dead bodies wero picked up and another mor tally wounded. Thoy wero takoii to tho city hall, whoro tho wounded man was attended to and an inquest hold over tho dead ones. Tho afl'air is really an outcome of tho tronido arising out of tho procurement of negroes to work in placo of striking whito minors. MILITIA ORDRBI?D TO TlCIi 8CEMK, SritiNOviBLD, li.i,., Scptombor 17. Gov. Tnnnor has ordorod two companies of tho 4th regiment, under command of Col. Bennett, to Cnrtorvillo. Ho re ceived a telegram this afternoon from Samuel Brush, manager of tho Ht. Louis and Hig Muddy Coal Company, at Car terville, that somo of his negro minors, who had gathered ata depot preparatory to leaving, had been killed, a mob having tired upon them. Tho Go vor nor gave out tho following statement to-uighl: "t rocoived a mes sage from Capt. Brush stating that tho nod) had attacked and killed tho negro minors whilo waiting at tho Illinois Con trai depot for a train; that tho sheriff would bo unablo lo control tho situation, and was powerless to arrest tho parties; asking mo to order troops to Carterville "In response to this message, knowing something of t ho condition of that placo, and, without waiting to hear from tho shoriff or others in authority, I immedi ately ordered Liont. Lowden, of Com pany C, of Carbondale, to proceed at once to Cnrtorvillo, procuring a special train if necessary, and when reaching Cnrtorvillo to suppress the riot, protect lifo and property, but report to tho She riff of Williamson county for orders, in tho event that tho sherill' was on tho groynd. "1 also ordered Capt. Hersh, of New ton, to proceed with his company by tho quickest route, to Cnrtorvillo. At tho same time 1 ordered Col. Bonnott, of tho Ith rogimont, who lives at Greenville, to proceed to Carterville at oncfc and take charge of tho troops. I also directed tho commanding officer of Company F, of Mount Vernon, to proparo and bo in readiness to leave on short notice. "Later I received a message from Capt. Brush slating that lator reports showed that seven of Iiis mon were killed and two injured, and that a largo mob of armed men was between Carterville and his mine, and that one company was not sufficient. "lt would seem that these negro min ors were waiting at the depot for tho train, probably expecting to leave tho place temporarily or tinnily. It seems to bo, from the brief facts reported and the further fact that no ono was killed except tho negroes, that it was a prear ranged, preconcerted, premeditated murder. If 1 am right in this conclu sion the peoplo of Carterville, and espe cially oi Williamson county, should uso evory means possible, and that vigor ously, to bring thoso parties, guilty of this wholesale murder, to speedy justice, and, in their efforts to do so, I promise them the co-operation of tho State, thc whole National Guard, if necessary, to bring about the arrest and conviction of these parties for thc restoration of peace and good order in the county, and so 1 advised the sherill' of Williamson county this afternoon by wi to. "This is a blot on tho fair nanto of tho Commonwealth of Illinois and will bo a disgrace to tho community of William son county unless quick and vigorous action is taken by tho county authori ties. The good and law-abiding citizens of Williamson county should rise to tho situation and support tho law officors in restoring peace and order and in tho ar rest and conviction of tho guilty parties. "I hopo that tho Now to? company will reach Carterville before morning and bo fore any con Riot occurs, but I do not be lieve and shall not bolievo until it hap pons that the strikers will attack tho National (?iiard or attempt lo oppose it in doing its duty." Lato to-night Gov. Tanner received a telegram from Short g (.ray, at. Carter ville stating that the situation is critical and that tho military company is not sufficient to disperso tho mob. (Jov. Tanner wired other military companies to hasten to tho scone. A N KO KO I'ltKAOlIKIl KILT.Kl). M int en Ysnoito, Septomber 17.

Jleforo tho uoiso of tho Hist shots had died away tho streets began to lill with excited armed men.
