Boise City, Idaho, July 12.—The following message was sent by Gov ernor Willey to President Harrison last night: This morning there was Hot and bloodshed by the miners in Couer D’Alene District. The mill was blown up by dynamite and many men killed and injured. Inspector General Curtis, I. N. G., Informs me that four or five hundred armed men constitute the mob. Tho Leg islature is not in session and can't be promptly convened. The civil authorities of the countay and State is wholly inadequate to main tain peace. The immediate available military force of the Idaho National Guards numbers 19(3 men, which is in ray opinion far too few to success fully cope with the mob, though 1 will order it at or.ee into tho field. In this emergency I deem it neces sary to call for the assistance of Federal troops. I request that a sufficient force be detailed from Fort Sherman or elsewhere, to act in concert with tho State authori ties in maintaining public order ” The following are the additional details concerning tho strike: W vLLA.CE Idaho, July 12.—At four o'clock yesterday afternoon about 300 miners from Gem, 50 of whom were armed with rifles, marched down to d allace. They brought l with them their prisoners, consist ing of about 110 non-union men and five dead bodies, another dead man; James Hennesy and lately of Butte Mount, being in at Gem shot through the breast. Upon arrival here the icabs were turned loose and the union men began a search for A. W. Esler, the manager of the Frisco mine, against whom the union men Lava a special grudge. The terms on which the Gem miners and guards sur rendered were that twenty-seven Winchesters and a number of re volvers and 2,000 rounds cf ammu tion should be placed in the hands of disinterested parties, two citizens and two conservative union men, and that the scabs should be shipped out of the country tomor row. An hour after the agreement about arms was entered into, the union men got possession of all the riiies and ammunition, and last eve ning large bodies of armed miners went down to Wardner, 12 miles distant, in wagons and by rail. The mines employing non-union men there are the Sierra Nevada and the Bunker Hill and Sullivan. Bunker Hill aud Sullivan have a force of 2GO men, and about 100 can be armed with Winchesters. Sierra Nevada is exposed. Their county commissioners district at torney and Sheriff have telegraph ed to Gov. Willey for troops, and Gov. Willey wired back that the Sheriff must first exhaust the civil power. The Sheriff immediately commenced the work of subpoenaing citizens to act as a committee of citizens. Instead of there being 750 pounds of giant powder used in blowing up the Frisco mill there were only 250 pounds. The car attempt did not work. The miners got on to tho Hume, shut off the water and sent the powder in packages down the water pipes into the mill. The fuse was put in the last package and sent down. In an instant a terrible ex plosion occurred, which shook the canyon for miles. Ti e non-union men then surrendered. The People’B Party. Special to the News and Observer. Asheville, N.

NO HOSTILITY ABOUT THE MILI TARY INVASION OK HOMESTEAD. The Troops Occupy the Entire Town Without Opposition aud Good Nature Prevails on all Sides—The Carnegie Mills Again in the Hands of its Owners. By Telegraph to News and Observer. Homestead, Pa., July 12. —Every- body expected that thß troops would invade the city by day break, but 7 o’clock, S o’clock, and 9 o’clock passed without any news from them- At a few minutes past 9 o'clock a cry suddenly went up: ‘■The troops are coming, the troops are coming,” and instantly th.6 greatest excitement prevailed. The militia came in by rail from above town, and at once surrounded the Carnegie mills. They were receiv ed with a few cheers from, the sur rounding bystanders as tho train rolled in, and most respectful con sideration was accorded them on every side. The first detachment of troops numbered at least 3,000 men, aud was in command of Gen. Snowden. They composed the second and third brigades, first division. The 11th and 18th regiments from Pitts burg are here, and battery “D” of the Ist brigade has shown up with two Gatling guns and three field pieces. Portions of the sth, 10th and 15th regiments are on the field, and com panies A, C, E and II of the 18th regiment are also recognized among the blue coats. The troops came from a point of rendezvous two miles this side of Greensburg, and it is stated that the first brigade is now at Mount Gretna, where it will remain till further orders. Imme diately on the arrival of the trains there was a great bustle and excite-' rnent, but the militia themselves pre served perfect order and responded silently and promptly to every order of their superiors. Rapidly de scending from the train the troops formed in column at the switch yards just beyond the station. One company was at once detached on picket duty and a line was immedi ately Hiroven out among the mill yards. Then the main- body cf troops marched down tho street headed by the regiment band, and along what is known as “Scab Hill.” This is an eminence overlooking the mills and the scene cf last week’s hostilities, and its bluff was covered with spectators, mostly women. There was not the slightest manifestation of hostilities, and although the troops had arrived so suddenly that all the leaders of the strikers were absent, it did not excite their pres ence and there was proper respect shown the rank and file. Once or twice there was even a little hand clapping, from the younger element as jauntily the militiamen hove in sight and the band was the object of much interest. The carefully prepared reception of course was frustrated by the sudden arrival of the militia, and it was manifest that the officers in command did not desire to be made the objects of any ceremonial reception from the peo ple whoso lawlessness they had been summoned to suppress. Jn twenty minutes the works were en tirely surrounded, aud the Carnegie mills were once more in the hands of their owners. All the surround ing streets were patrolled by pickets and a guard at every street inter section kept the crowd at a respect ful distance and prevented the as sembling of groups of strikers’ It is due to tho workmen, however, to say that no militiaman was called to exercise bis authority. The strikers were uniformly good natured and peaceful. The pro gramme of their leaders was ob served to the letter. There was much speculation as to whether the troops would occupy the town or merely confine themselves to the mills, but doubt on this point was not of long duration. Immediately af ter the troops had surrounded the works and picket lines had been established, several companies sud denly formed at the command of their officers and marched directly to the heart of the little town of Homestead. One company halted near to tho strikers head quarters and then marched to tho vicinity of the depot and there occupied a slight eminence overlooking and commanding the commercial center of the town. Homestead was in the hands cf the militia and martial law had suc ceeded the arbitrary reign of the advisory committee. The greatest order was main tained by the troeps in all their movements,young militiamen show ing the benefits of careful training. The citizens of Homestead were deeply disappointed that the militia should have deemed it necessary to occupy the whole town in stead of merely confining themselves to the mills. But there was not a hoot or cry, or a single manifesta tion of disrespect to show their dis appointment. It was a complete acquiescence to the power of the State and as gracefully ai they could, the strikers philosophically accepted the inevitable. The 15th, 18th, sth, and lGth reg iments were the corps that pushed into Homestead, the 14th and 10th had half hour previously taken pos session on the opposite bank of the Monongahela, just across from the Carnegie mills. There too, bat teries wero planted commanding the whole toAva. Had there been any resistance to tho entrance of the troops, cannon on the other side of the river could by them selves have made tho strikers’ posi tion untenable. - THE THIRD PARTY. A Mixed Up Convention Yesterday at Fayetteville. Special to the News and Observer. Fayetteville, N.

A NEGRO OUTRAGE. WHITE PEOPLE FIRED UPON AT PADUCAH, KENTUCKY. A Negro Uprising Caused by a Recent Lynching—-A Mob of Armed Negroes Attempt to Attack the Jail to Release One of Their Race—A White Man Fa tally Shot—Great Excitement. 8y Telegraph to tne News and Observer Cincinnati, July 12.—A Com mercial Gazette Paducah, Ky., spe cial says : Shoitly after 9 o’clock last night, while tho city council was in session, the chief of police threw a bomb in their midst by an nouncing that a report had just reached him that two or three hun dred negroer, armed with Winches ter rilies, had congregated in the vicinity of the jail, prepared for an attack. The council at once ad journed. Tho mayor at once sent a dispatch to the Governor ask ing him t > order out Company “C” of the State Guard lo cated here. Every able bodied man is now on the streets, and ev ery one that can obtain arms of any kind is doing so. The Sheriff has charge of the posse, composed of 50 or 75 men, armed with shot guns and revolv ers, procured from various hard ware stores. The underlying cause |of tho uprising is the hanging of Charles Hill, h negro, who made an assault upon Lyda Starr some weeks ago. They have been se cretly obtaining arms for sometime, and something of this kind was looked for almost any time. The immediate cause of the out break, as stated by a negro last night, was the arrest of a colored man named Thomas Burgees. At 11:30 o’clock the marshal and mayor returned to the jail from a talk with squads of negroefi who, when the mayor and marshal promised that no violence should be done to the prisoner in jail, promised to dis perse, and begun at once to do so. The marshal addressed the crowd of white people and tolcl them to go to their homes, as the negroes were dispersing and no violence need now be feared. This the people began to do, and in a few minutes the crowd was reduced to the mili tia and about forty aimed citizens. At exactly at, 12 o’clock a band of seventy-five negroes suddenly ap peared, marching down Sixth street, and opened fire upon tho men collected at the jail. At the first fire Elmer Edward, a young man twenty years of age fell, shot through the abdo men. He is dying. He was a mem ber of the militia company and a harness maker by trade. The fire was returned by the militia and armed citizens, and the negroes beat a precipitous retreat. The militia also retreated in disorder back of the court house where they kept up the firing until the negroes had disappeared down the street. It. is thought some of the negroes are wounded, although it is impossible as yet to learn tho particulars. The jail and court room are now filled with the militia and armed citizens. The negroes retreated back to the Odd Fellows lodge, which place has been their chief headquarters during the night. The police have arrested over fifty ne groes found carrying arms, and they are guarded to prevent any at tempt to release them. The mortally wounding of young Edwards has aroused a storm of in dignation that is kept from break ing out with difficulty, and an at tempt to avenge his untimely death is almost certain to be made. Ex citement runs high, and at 1 o’clock this morning the street is still filled with people. .UJ- Henderson Notes. Cor. ol the News and Observer. Henderson, N. C., July 12.

Paris, July 12.—The baths of St. Gorvaia nuc iu ii y © oeUiUal.U Dill til ings, joined by a stonewall, erected in a narrow gorge. They were situ ated about 2,006 fed above the sea, on the road from Geneva to Cha rnonia. A glacier became detached from M ; ,. Blanc and fell into a moun tain torrent carrying away the ham let of Blonnay and filling the torrent with ice. Masses of ice and wreckage of the village formed a dam which effectually restrained the water for some time. Finally the dam broke and the waters burst like a cateract into the stream of Bonarit, which passes through St. Gervaia. The inmates of the bath houses were awakened about 2:25 a. m. by tho sound of rushing wa ters and a loud crashing noise. Before they were able to escape three of the bujldings were entirely destroyed and another one partly, while the fifth building sustained no damage. The torrent continued into the valley, destroying every thing m its course. The village of Lafayet lying in the valley was al most entirely demolished. It is be lieved that 75 persons perished at the baths. The latest estimate of the number of the dead is 130. — Astor Not Dead. By Telegraph to and News Observer.
