There wen several people on the bridge coming up at the time. They were not striker* but pedestrians crossing over. The firing lasted but a single volley, but when the smoke cleared away, a man lay stretched apparently lifeless on the footwalk. In an incredibly shot space of time a crowd gathered, the prostrate man being carried Into the bridge bouae, when he was found to be not dead but dying. A bullet had gone through his abdomen, and while he breathed life ebbed'rapidly away. He was unable to speak, but he was recognised as C. E. Thompson, of St Louis. When the deputies had completed their second murderous assault they turned tail, and hanging together for protection slunk like poltroons across the bridge. The different eye witnesses of the tragedy all agree that the attack on the strikers was most dastardly and entirely unprovoked. They all assert that it is the natural consequence of putting Winchesters in the hands of unexperienoed men, who have never before smelt powder, and who would be frightened at their shadow. Officer Edward Mahoney, who saw the slaughter, said that the strikers did nothing to provoke it The deputies opened fire before the strikers had any opportunity tomato a hostile move. As is usual in similar cases the eased." C. O. Parker, superintendent oC the Louisville and Nashville road, called at ths Four Courts and wanted the men bald on this side, as their lives would not be sets on ths other side.

Chicago, April 10.—The employes of the Brunswick-BeJke-Oollsnder oompany, to the mmber of between 480 man, went out on i strike this morning. In addition to their lemands for an increase of wagee and the ' changing from piece work to day work, the nen made a proposition to Mr. Miller, business manager of the company, to discharge all aon-union men. Mr. Miller made a reply that he did not intend to discharge non-union nen, and thereupon the men refused to go to work. A committee of the union met Mr. tensinger, a member of the company, shortly Iter 10 o'clock. Mr. Bensing o D1 the won .here was but one non-union man in the 'actory, and he would be discharged. He -ben asked the men to withdraw their demand for an increase of 20 per cent on day work.

Following this announcement he proposed that the house stand adjourned during Easter week. as you would a murderer." While Brown was speaking Committeman Hayes walked excitedly up and down the platform, exclaiming in a despairing manner:BHVM THIS, BHUlt THEM THE MIUTIA CALLED OUT. tttm Concentrating at ths Seene of ths Hh'C Crisis Beaehed at Ust and Inno«U Cltlsens ran Dead and Dying, Oat Down by ttae Deadly Mlnle Governor Oglesby has ordered Adjt Gen- Vance to send as many companies as necessary to the scene at East Bt Louis at ths earliest possible moment Companies at Springfield, Decatur, Champaign, Nashville, Sparta, Vandalia, Paris and Greenville were ordered to proceed to the scene and report to CoL R. M. Smith, who will have command. In forty minutes the Governor's Guards were ready, but did not get off till 6 o'clock. "Ohl my God, my God. I wish this had not happened." His eyes were watery; he was almost crying, and when he addressed the mob after Brown's harangue, his emotions choked him several times, and he was obliged to pause for utterance. Hayes speech was of the sams tenor ss Brown's, as was also that of Martin O'Neill, who followed Hayes. Casper Heep, who bad arrived in the meantime, was busy aqiong the crowd trying, upon the more excited individuals, the arguments which the committeemen were urging from the platform. After a while he was joined by Messrs. Hayes, Brown, O'Neill, McKeon and Bailey. After a while the temper of the mob had cooled down somewhat, but as they dispersed a number of them showed by their remarks that all danger was not past yet At 11 o'clock Sheriff Ropiequet sent the following dispatch to the governor:Mr. Chamberlain was received with faint cheers as he arose to make his promised statement. His speech partook eon of the character of a personal explanation than a reply to Mr. Gladstone's Irish bill, and it is not believed that his remarks have strengthened his position. Mr. Chamberlain said that when he joined the government he gave Mr. Gladstone to understand that he was opposed to any scheme of land purchase, and not prepared to reconcile a separate parliament in Dublin with the security of the empire. He had several objections to the adoption of any scheme involving an Increase of the burden of taxation, and he so stated to Mr. Gladstone. He was asdbred that any scheme of home rule or land purchase contemplated by the government would be first submitted to the cabinet for discussion, and that the measure decided upon would embody the best views of the ministry. He was, therefore, astonished when, on March 13, Mr. Gladstone laid before himself and his colleagues a land purchase bill involving an outlay of £160,- 000,000. . • BsIMM and Martial law Stand Mm to Va*e With Fatal Determine■ Ri r t tlMk East St. Louis, April 10.—A reign of ter- Mr and bloodshed has been inaugurated tare, and although serious results were not nnlooked for, few were prepared for the sadden and terrible manner in which it came. For several days past the demonstrations that were made on the part of the strikers, and the fact that the freight houses and yards of the railroad companies were being filled with hired deputy sheriffs, convinced the mors coolheaded that nothing short of a miracle would prevent a bloody riot Appeal after appeal was sent to Governor Oglesby for military protection, but in vain. Sheriff Ropiequet apparently exD«na»«d his resources in his endeavor to provide the force that was necessary. Yesterday to had a posse of 200 men here, but In .the evening he sept them back to Belleville, only fifteen out of the 200 remaining. They were not properly armed for the contingency tK.t, would probably arise, and the sheriff says the governor failed to provide them with Winchesters as he promised. The failure of the posse to put In an appearance yesterday morning did not disconcert the railroad official in the least, as they relied on the assistance of their own men who had been sworn in as deputy sheriffs and who were all arrded with Winchesters. This means of protection was first determined on by the manager of the Louisville and Nashville, and the other roads resorted to the same means. Eighteen of these deputies patrolled the Chicago and Alton yards. Tb» Chicago, Burlington and Quincy had thirty similarly armed men, the Ohio and Mississippi seventeen, and the Vandalia about a doxen, all of whem carried Winchesters and navy revolver. In order to prevent the possibility of • mob, such as that of Wednesday, again entering the yards, these armed deputies guarded the points where the Ohio and Mis: sissippi and Chicago and Alton yard tracks intersect the main lines, and no one was allowed in the yards unless he held a permit l/rom the superintendent , In front of the freight houses on the island guards w«mD stationed. At the intersection of the Chicago, Burlington and Quincy and the Chicago and Alton tracks A Young lady Kitted. "Forty men went from here," said the governor to The United Press representative. "I did not act until _I_ was satisfied that the sheriff had exhausted his powers to keep the peace. He informed me that he was in good condition, but last night he was gloomy agaiiL- I had intended ordering out the troops, bat did not do so until after the sheriff informed me that he had discharged his posss. Thsn I ordered out the troops. I don't know how long they will stay there. I would be glad if I could order them back in the morning. Adjt Gen. Vance and CoL Schaffer, of my staff, will represent me at the scene-" The governor was much troubled and declined to talk about the condition of affairs. A Gatling gun went'down last evening and will be manned by a squad from tho Danville battery. Orders were dispatched to the military oompanies at Virden and Taylorville to proceed to East St Louis this morning. Hackkttstown, April 10.—Miss Mary Peters, aged 23, waited on the west bound 3-ack of the Delaware, Lackawanna and Western railroad, about a mile east of here, yesterday afternoon, with two friends for an jest bound coal train to pass. While they itood there a west bound freight train turned i curve just above the crossing. They did not see it until it was almost upon them. Due of Miss Peters' friends jumped on one tide of the track and one on the other, and jsch screamed to her to follow. Instead of ibeying either, she seemed for an instant to be bewildered, and then fell forward on her (ace, She was killed instantly. INNOCENT SUFFERED MOST. There was only one striker among the wounded. The woman who was shot was Mrs. Joseph Pfeiffer. She was hit in the back and cannot live. The two men who fell on the bridge were taken to Fiseher's drug store, but they were beyond 'medical skill. The occurence is pronounced by til who witnessed it as a cold-blooded, cowardly murder. Riot would be a misnomer in this case. The names of the men killed and mortally wounded are: Pat Driscoll, Wabash section man, not a striker; Oscar Washington, a painter, not a striker; John Bonner, coal miner, not a striker; Maj. Ryncher, a rolling mill employe, was shot in thehead and shoulder and will probably die; Mrs. Pfeiffer, shot in the back, mortally wounded; C, E. Thompson, of St. Louis, mortally wounded.

A mob of 200 men invested the entrance of the Louisville and Nashville yards and stopped the employes of the road. Wlyn commanded by me and my deputies to disperse they hooted and derided me and my posse and applied epithets to me and refused to disperse in the presence of the city police officers. With the force at my disposal I cannot preserve the peace and afford protection to the railroad companies. Under these circumstances I intend to send my posse to their homes. I hereby invoke the aid of the state for militia sufficient to aid me in the execution of laws and the protection of property. I will forward a written request for militia by the next mail. Roratqtrrr, Sheriff. During the shooting Sheriff Ropiequet sent the following dispatch: Hero Mr. Gladstone Interrupted Mr. Chamberlain and said: "I object to this. The gentleman hits not received permission of her majesty's government to state its measures in parliament." "WANTED, MEN OF GRIT." Some of the deputies who failed to make connection with the frightened crowd, who rushed pell mell over the bridge, took refuge, chased by the crowd, in the freight warehouse and offices of the LouAMlie and Nashville and barred all the doors. The warehouse was surrounded by an immense crowd, who hooted and yelled and urged the men to attack the stronghold and drive the deputies out Men went among the crowds urging others to procure arms and shoot all the deputies they conld find. Some of the deputies, watching their opportunity, slipped out and worked their way among the freight cars unobserved. They left their guns behind them in the freight house, and a Louisville and Nashville freight car backed down alongside the platform and took away the others to a place of safety. Two were sighted by the strikers, who had procured arms, and were chased under the bridge. One of them was caught In front of Tony's house, on the levee, and was The Advertisement Which Caught the Mr. Chamberlain replied that he made the statement only for the purpose of explanation, and protested against restrictions bein j placed upon the measure of his explanation. An angry discussion followed for some minutes between Mr. Gladstone and Mr. Chamberlain, after which the latter proceeded with his speech. St. . Loois, April 10.—One week ago the Louisville and Nashville Mid the Chicago, Burlington and Quincy railroads, not believing that the authority of Sheriff Ropiequet was sufficient to protect their property, inserted the following advertisement in the county papers along the lines: Wanted—Good men to go to Bast St Louis and act as deputy marshals for this company. Five dollars a day will be paid and beard furnished. Only men of grit wanted. Apply at once to the agents of the company. Fighters In "Egypt." Philadelphia, April 10. — The Feister Press company of this city has signed contracts with H. H. Warner, of Rochester, N. Y., for the largest printing contract on record.

Part of the work will be done in this city, and the remainder on Feister presses in England and Germany. The Largest Printing Contraot. The objections, Mr. Chamberlain said, which he had stated to Mr. Gladstone previous to entering the cabinet had not since been removed, and several oI them he would now make known. He objected to the scheme principally beoause the Irish members were by its terms excluded from the Westminster, parliament; because the scheme renounced the exercise of the right of the imperial government to Impose taxation; because it surrendered the right of the government to appoint judge* and magistrates, and particularly because of the supreme authority suggested far Ireland in matters not specially excluded from the power of its parliament R J.

One man killed on bridge; danger The result of this was that all the men with fighting reputations immediately became impressed with the idea that now was the longed for opportunity to distinguish themselves. The company furnished them with Winchester rifles and Coifs revolvers, and brought them here and stationed them in _ the yards. No hotel could be found here willing to harbor them and they were taken to St Louis for board and lodging. The presence of these countrymen with their Winchester rifles ovsr their shoulders was a constant source of Irritation to the strikers, and when they mat the usual solution from the striken was: Manchester, April 10.—The Guardian in tta commercial article says: Trade in cloths Is fairly steady.

To this the governor replied: Your telegram received. I have given orders for a militia force to report at once under command of a colonel, who will be on the grounds to take charge of said force. Several companies, possibly eight or more, will go. You will have a reliable force upon which to depend. I will Instruct the colonel to report to you, and I must exact of each of yon the greatest care, the greatest earnestness and discipline in your councils, and oo-opeoatlon with the officers in command thereof.

Mr. Chamberlain then spoke of the effect which the suooess of the scheme must have upon the taxpayers of Great Britain. He regarded the land measure as one laying upon British taxpayers an overwhelming liability, attended with ex cessive risk}. Viewed in any light, it still retained the appearaaoe of a bribe to the Irish land owaers to softan or remove their hostility to heme rule. by tbe mob. Another was reported to hmre been shot u he was escaping under the approach to the bridge. The other deputies escaped unharmed. As soon as it was learned that the deputies were escaping from the freight houses men, insane with anger and excitement, burstfin the doors and searched the house thoroughly. They secured soma Winchester rifles, and with others who had shotguns and revolvers, searched the freight cars and the yatds of the Louisville and Nashville carefully for the stray deputies.

Among the men in the employ of the Louisville and Nashville road to a short, thick-set individual with a fierce red mustache and a broad-brimmed white Referring to the financial element of the tnhamo, Mr. Chamberlain laid that the lEngHrfi taxpayer* would object to shouldering any additional burden for the purpose of milting good Irish deficiencies; and the Irish taxpayers would be called upon to pay now taxes whenever deficiencies In the budget occurred. Falling to obtain the sum needed in this way, the government would be obliged to repudiate its obligations. Rather than to support this measure with all its futum complications Mr. Chamberlain declared he would vote for separation pure and simple. (Cheers from the Conservatives and Whigs.) The opponent* of this scheme were told by the government that the only alternative to home rule was coercion. Coercion .was not, however, his alternative. Coercion had failed, and it would fail again. He proposed to deprive the landlords of the power of forcing evictions for six months, meanwhile guaranteeing them their rent, the land being the security. During this period a peace commission, composed of members of all of the parties and factions in parliament, oould conduct a searching inquiry into the land question. This be thought necessary as a preliminary step, and be believed that the information gathered by the commission would be invaluable to the solution of the land problem. As Cor home rule, Mr. Chamberlain said that he did not look for it in the direction indicated Iby the government, but rather in the direction of a federation under which Ireland would remain an integral portion of the empire and imperial unity be maintained. Sheriff Ropiequat was found in the bar of the Martille hotel shortly After the killing. He was talking to a crowd of friends and was taking things easy apparently. "I have nothing to do with tills thing and am out of It altogether," said he, "J telegraphed the governor at 10 o'cleok that I was done with it, and I sent a report of the occurrence to 'the governor, but 1 shall do nothing more. I don't propose to go into any more crowds. The deputies who did the shooting were under Special Deputy Parker, I think."

They were on their way to the Ohio and Mississippi freight house to take refuge in it when we caught them." About half an hour after the fight on the roadway an excited, angry mob gathered In the square between the city hall and the police sta* on. A man named Dwyer, who formerly ran a variety dive, and who at present follows no other occupation than gambling for a livelihood, was! the center of a wild-eyed, pale-faced crowd, who loudly cheered every incendiary statement that be uttered.

He had been insulted and subjected to considerable banter for his action of Wednesday in holding the crowd at bay in the Louisville and Nashville yards and for threatening to kill the first man who entered the freight house. He had warned the strikers several times to quit annoying him. Hie threats and counter threats tended to increase the ill-feeling existing between strikers and deputies. It was this "oowboy" who fired the fatal shot and precipitated the fatal fusilada. Aa American Tenor's Debut.

Louis, April 10. — A G. Hewlett, special officer of the Louisville and Nashville road, was in charge of the party who did the shooting. He was seen in the hold over at the Four Courts polios station. He said that the trouble commenced just before dinner, when two of the deputise were struck with stones. He talked with the crowd and told them to disperse, which some of them did; others, he says, cursed and hooted him. A couple of hours later he was called to the Louisville and Nashville yard, where a crowd was preventing a train from going out He s»ys after they got the train out he arrested a man for using threatening language, and ordered the crowd to disperse. Stones wars thrown, and he and several of his men war* struck, and then the firing commenced. "I think we fired first," said Hewlett "I think all of our Bhots took effect One man who threw the first rock was shot down." "They cried, 'Kill the cowboy!' meaning me," interrupted Deputy Sheriff Kenaier, "and as I saw a fellow drawing a revolver I shot him." "After the shooting," continued Hewlett "we made for the bridge, not from fear, but because w* did not want kill any more people. We were stopped on the bridge by Mayor Joyce, who was quite drunk, and he wanted us to go back with him. This we refused to do, because he couldn't, give us protection. He attempted to take us and gave his revolver to a fellow who opened fire on us. The man fired several shots at us and some of our party fired back." "How many of you fired in the first shooting?""All of us," was the reply, and all of the nine men in the party added that they had all fired.

The first was some box oars steading in the Louisville and Nashville yards. Hardly had this been extinguished when another broke out among the box cats upon the Indianapolis and St Louis tracks, near the round house of that road. This fire was allowed to burn, no access to it being possible At midnight another fire broke out in the yards of the Cairo Narrow Oauge railroad, and burned some cars of that company.

Mr. Brown, who travels with the general board in the capacity of Knights of Labor orator, mounted the stairs leading to the police station and yelled at the mob for attention, but the infuriated mob answered him with: "Hang the extra." "Kill them," and other remarks of the same character. Mr. Hayes, who was standing at Brown's side, turned to a prominent Knight of Labor and asked him to introduce Mr, Brown to the mob as the representative of the general executive committee. The man replied in a fright ened manner: "If I do, they wjjl hang mei" .grown turned on him as quick as a flash and said: "Yes, if you dont they ought to hang you." Then he turned to the mob, which kept up the cry to kill, aang and burn, and began an impassioned appeal for quiet, law and order, and by the sheer force of his terrible earnestness riveted the attention of the crowd tor a few minutes at a time, when they would break away rom the spell of his eloquepoe and take up iheir revolutionary yeHS.

The crowd broke and ran in all directions, uttering maledictions as they retreated. Curses deep and loud, mingled with the groans of the wounded and dying and the piercing cry of a woman, were heard above the din. Notwithstanding that the strikers were in full retreat, the deputies pursued them in the direction of the bridge, shooting white in progress. At least 180 to 200 shots fired. Two men fell in their tracks on the bridge, while one man was seen to topple .aver into Cahokia creek.
