General Miles knew nothing alsiiit the
calling out of the State militia by the
(Jovernor until shown the news dispatch
from Springfield. He said that he did
not believe there would be any conflict
between the State and Federal troops.
The duty , of Federal troops was clearly

.Govemnr Aitgeld and-that duty is slmph-
to Jitevent interference with the mail's
and to inter-state commereei The duty

and to preserve peace and order. Gen.
Miles, therefore, considers that Federal
and State troops will work in a eo-ojier-

A NEW TRICK.
The trick of scaring the crew from a
train, cutting the engine loose and run
ning it up the track, opening the throt-
-le and letting it run full, tilt back upon
the standing train was a hew one and
of a character likely to be imitated. The
stoning of) incoming trains was a com
mon passtime with the mobs and sever
al pensons were more or less injured by
llying missiles. One engineer on a Rock
Island train was so badly injured that it
waa at first reported that be waa dead.
Hie assaults of the mobs, however,
wag met with passive nwistance which
characterised the course pursued yester
day. On two occasions at least their at
tempts were met with accurately alp

mass of flames. About thirty of the cam

intense. Fifteen of the cars contained
meat from the packing houses of Ar,

this time the fire department had viri:ed
fires further north on the tracks and had]
sent their -force* through. But on. learn
