This WellJiKnown and Leading Hotel,
;ioq TED IK C?TEE OF
THE CITY,
OFFERS
Washington, Jaly 19. The follow
ing is tne manaatory clause 01 tne
President's proclamation :
"Now, therefore, I, Kutherford 13.
Hayes, President of the United States,
do hereby admonish all good citizens
of. the United States, and all persons
within the territory and jurisdiction of
the United States, against aiding, coun
tenancing, abetting, or taking part in
such unlawful proceedings; and I d
hereby warn all persons engaged in,
or connected with the said domestic
violence and obstruction of the laws,
to disperse and retire peaceably to
their respective abodes on or before
12 o'clock noon, of the nineteenth day
of July, instant."
Governor Matthews telegraphs the
President that the strike has assumed
such proportions that the force Bent
is not adequate to overawe it.
Maktinsbtjrg, W. Va., July 19. The
troops arrived at 6:80 a. m. At 8:30,
all was quiet. The strikers, or most of
them, are outside of the western limit.
The President's proclamation, printed
in hand bill form, is being distributed
among the employees at all points of
the road. Policemen are furnished
with large numbers to be placed in
conspicuous places.
Maetiksburg, July 19. Up to this
time, no engineer has been obtained
to take the east train, .No. 4. The
proclamation of the President has been
posted throughout the city. All is
quiet. 1 here is a large throng about
the hotel, but all appear good humor
ed, and prominent strikers say there
will be no demonstration against per-
son ana property. Justice vv imams,
in the presence of Sheriff Nadenbush,
read the request from Governor Mat
thews to the men assembled at the
crossing, to disperse and desist from
further interferences with the trains.
There are a plenty of men willing to
work, but are afraid.
Washixgtox, July 19. Colonel
French, commanding the United
States forces at Martmsburg, W. Va.,
telegraphs to the Secretary of War
this morning, that at lis o clocK, u
the insurgents have not dispersed, the
troops under his command will pro
ceed to enforce the orders of the
President. At the time Colonel
French sent the dispatch, all was
quiet, and he doubted whether any
thing more than a demonstration
would be required to disperse the
rioters. Colonel Delaplaine, aide to
Governor Matthews, of West Virginia,
ha9 withdrawn his request of 1
o'clock this morning, for more troops,
and two pieces of artillery.
Martinsburg, July iy. i:dU P. M.
Quiet for the last two hours. No tram
has been moved. The troops remain
in quarters. Trains will be moved
this afternoon if men can be had to go
on them. Plenty are willing but are
afraid to do so.
2:10 P. M. The military company
from Wheeling was called thirty min-
utes ago, ana marcnea to tne crossing,
accompanied by the sheriff and a dep
uty, and a party who agreed to point
out ten or. tne leaams Binders. xeiore
reaching the crossing, he backed out,
and the military marcnea DacK again.
This created som9 harsh language on
the part of some persons, though
there was ro demonstration of vio
lence. Drinking houses have been
closed all day, despite which was
considerable intoxication. A man un
der the influence of liquor, proposed
to hang Colonel bharp, the master ot
transportation. His friends took him
away after the sherin attemptea to
arrest him. The Wheeling military
was called upon to assist in the arrest,
and refused, unless so ordered by the
captain. That officer could not be
found. .
2:35 P. M. Lieutenant Koesh, with
a detachment of battery F, fourth ar
tillery, was called out, and cleared the
track. Five minutes ago the first
train westward has moved. The citi
zens were compelled to leave the yard,'
so that there should be no obstruc
tion. Captain Rodgers f-om Fort; Mc
Henry, has command of the troops.
There is much excitement, but no vio
lence. 3:50 P. M. The coal train erst, with
No. 4 engine, left at 3;U.Aa it mov
ed off several strikers occupied " the
hill along side the track which was
covered with rock. The military pre
sented arms, and there was no demon
stration. Engine 423, with a train of
boose cars, is just moving out, and all
is quiet. ;No. 4 took a detachment' of
Zepp, and the' chief of the strikers
was . arrested by the sheriff, assisted
by the military, and lodged in lail. ;
' .Wheeling, . W. . VI., July 19. The
Baltimore & Ohio Bailroad .. strike
has now become general, extending
from, Martmsburg to. rarkersburg,
Ben wood, Columbus, , ' Newark and
Chicago, and strengthening as it ex
tends. The strikers induced the fire
man and engineer of the only train
which tried to leave, Martinsburg to
day, to desert. T.Tne strikers surround
ed the militia, and they retired. Gov.
Matthews has telegraphed to Washing
ton and the liovernor . of, Ohio, for
more'.; troops. ,Th' troops here are
held as yet in reserve. '. ""' ' ' ,' ! -
; The streets are nearly deserted. ' No
trouble ' is eznected tb-nierht. It is
probable that by noon to-morrow there
can" be found plenty of men to move
all tne trams. The arrest of the rins
leader has precluded the possibility ef
lurther trouble trom the strikers. This :
strike on the Pensylvania road crows
out of a plan of doubling the number
of cars to the tram ; this, the strikers
say, would enable the company to dis
charge half their number.
Joseph Plays Howard Like
Washington, July 19. It appears
from dispatches from, the seat of the
Indian war, that Chief Joseph trapped
Gen Howard into a talk. Meanwhile
his forces, which were critically situat
ed, , moved - away, ' and then - Chief
Joseph followed them; all getting away
in safety. . . .

Pittsburg, Pa., July 19. At ;noon
tn-dav the freieht train men on the
London, July 19. The Russians are
between Kazanlik and Stipka. Forty
five battalions of Russians are Bouth of
the Balkans. , It remains to be seen
whether Sulieman Pasha arrives in
time to bar their further progress.
Sulieman 's force numbers 18,000 or
20,000. He will endeavor to hold the
Russians in check to enable Osman
Pasha, from Widdin, and Abdul Ker
im, from Shumla, to fall upon their
rear. Abdul Kerim is holding himself
in readiness to assume the offensive at
the first convenient opportunity. A
private telegram even announces that
a battle has already begun.
Raof Pasha, who at first believed he
had repulsed the main body of Rus
sians on the other side of the Balkans,
merely drove back a small body sent
against him as a feint, while the bulk
of the army passed on behind.
The Daily News' dispatch from Con
stantinople says : "The Ottoman army
of the Danube commenced onen
sive operations Tuesday. The speedy
departure ef Hobart Pasha for Batoum
to take command of the squadron, is
announced."
A majority of the London papers
consider the Change in the Turkish
war ministry as not of peaceful signifi
cance. On Sunday and Monday, the advance
guard of the two fresh, Russian army
corps, passed by rail frpm Jassey .to
Galatz. They are likely to remain in
Roumania as reserves. .
The News' Kustendji special states
that tiie Circassians succeeded admir
ably in executing their orders to pre
vent the enemy from obtaining sup
plies. . Not a living thmg exists .in the
Dobrudscha. The Circassians, however,
did not commit any murders, but drove
off live stock and compelled the inhabi
tants to folio wi
The News' special fully confirms the
evacuation of Kustendji after the de
parture of the" Turks, in consequence
of the sacking of the Tartar quarters
by the Bulgarians, and the barbarities
committed by them. The consuls ob
tained assistance and a detachment
from the British man-of-war, Rapid,
to patrol the town. The Cossacks ar
rived on Sunday.
Dispatches to this morning's papers
show that the Russians are endeavor
ing, with every prospect of success, to
obtain possession of Kasanhk and biiv
nothaz, which would give them control
of the southern debouchure of the twd
most important passes of the central
Balkans. '
Turkish advices place the principal
Russian force at Hoinkoi, which is the
southern debouchure of the chain of
the Boehaz and Tchivarditzkor passes
The Turks seem to base their hope of
repelling the invasion wholly on the
arrival of Sulieman Pasha and his
army. It is improbable that the Rus
sians will give time for that, before
throwing forward a sufficient force
to sieze and hold the passes
. Paris, July 19. Telegrams received
here from Orsomva, state that the
Russian advance in: Bulgaria has been
slackened m consequence of despatches
received by Princof Gortschakoff from
certain powers.' The Russians will only
resume the march after; securing their
rear, which is now only protected by
the fourth corps,: which is encamped
near. .Bucharest. : ,. ; )
