WILKESBAREE, AugUSt I. Trains left both , ways on the Valley road this morning without disturb ance. At noon a local train for Pitts ton was boarded by strikers, and the engine cut loose and run into th6 round house. " ' , " "; A crowd 'of six or seven thousand people assembled at the Lehigh Valley Railroad depot to see4 the - mail train from the south, in at 3:45 o'clock this afternoon. The strikers were out in force, and a. contsable and ' United States detective were " stoned.' The master mechanic,- Drirmheller, was running the engine; the -strikers stoned him till he had to get off. As he did so, he was struck in the face with a stone. The strikers cheered and mounted the engine, cut it loose and ran it to Sugar Notch. .John Kut ler, the constable, was seized by the mob and roughly handled. They were going to duck him in the canal, and would have killed him but lor the in terference of friends; He is now in the station house- for protection. The mob followed him. through the streets, hooting and yelling. A large number of . passengers were compelled to he over here. The strikers have taken the engine- from' the tram, and are running upland "down the road, blow ing the whistle . and cheering. The miners and raih oad men are coalesc ing, and trouble is feared. Scranton, ri , August 1. About 11:30 this morning about five thou sand men armed with clubs and re volvers, .forced, all employes of . the lu, l. Sc U. company,' who had returned to 'Work after a brief strike, to desist. They then proceeded to the car shops of the Delaware, Lackawanna & West ern liailroad company, and drove the men from their posts, and threatened to destroy the car shops' office. Not satisfied with this, they violently assaulted several -employes, both in the shop and officer and many of them sustained painful though not serious wounds. Mayor McKane hastened to the scene, and at the same time sent word to a volunteer organization of young men which had been guarding the extensive stores ot the L., 1. & (J. company, for about a week past. The mayor's arrival at the scene of the met lee, , was the signal for a general at tack upon h:m and but for the interposi tion ot i ather Dunn, a Catholic priest, he 7would haye probably been killed. He escaped, however, with a double fracture of the law. Meanwhile, some forty or fifty of the volunteers marched down Lackawanna avenue to Wash ington, where they were met by the rioters, and after a brief assault with clubs and stones, fired into the crowd, kilhrjff four men. The hoodlums and in fact everybody were dispersedr and as they ran, several leu ana were seri ously wounded. The company return' edto their quarters unmolested. All places of business are closed by order ot the mayor, and the citizens are i'oininglhe volunteers in large num ers. TrooDS have been sent for. and are expected to - night, when fresh trouble ? is feared. . Meanwhile, the streets are being cleared by the police and volunteers. ... - - : Cheapest -Wood Coffin tothe finest Metalio ! , ' . . - "Lti Burial Case.- Orders by telegraph ox otherwise promptly attended torespfnHy THE RUSSO-T17RKISH WAU.

The Times' cor respondent at Vienna utterly discredits the defeat of Ahmed 'Eyroub pasha' add says;' "After the concentration of the lurks around ohumla, a considern able portion of their forces was ordered to advance by wayof Ezhi Djuma, and Oaman Bazar uponrnova. - to unite with Osman Pasha there, and then fall on the rear of the Russian detachments which have passed the Balkans. The Turks therefore have nly been able to leave a feeble corps of observation which will take good care not to en counter an enemy superior m num bers. The' position of the Russians in the Shippa and Slivo passes, and on the southern slope of the Balkans is becoming hourly mora grave; their ef fective forces echloned on this line do not exceed fifty thousand, which are threatened from four sides simultane ously: from Adrianopleand Jomboli. bv Sulieman Pasha; from Osman Bazar by Mehemed All, while Osman Pasha is advancing in the direction of Selvi, and a reserye corps from Sofia could ap proach by way of Phillippopolis. It seems also that the Russians are not making much progress before Silistria and Eustchuk, where they are meeting with a desperate resistance. General Zimmerman's corps is advancing through the Dobrudsha greatly menaced by the right wing of the Turkish army from Varna and Pararadi. The ninth army corps has become almost incapa ble of fighting in consequence of the loss It suffered atNikopolisand Plerna. beveral telegrams mention the fact that the Roumanians occupy Nickopo lis at the the request of the Russians, as proof that the Russian cause is not prospering. The Times Bucharest correspondent says : "it is reported that a Roumani an division commanded by General Manu, after leaving a small garrison at Nikopolis marched in the direction of Plerna." , The Manchester Guardian's Vienna correspondent reports that the Czaro- witch s army is retiring towards the river Tartro. A Bucharest report is current that Mehmed Ali with sixty thousand men has arrived at Osman Bazar. - A small Russian detachment is retreating before him; Mehmed Ali is trying to effect a junction with Osman Pasha, but to ac complish this without giving battle in an open field. The Russians are waiu ing for such an opportuoity most impatiently. Austria has abandoned her passive position for one of armed neutrality. Twenty-four million norms must be raised for the proposed mobilization of the Italian fleet at Toranto. Specials to the Daily Telegraph assert that the Turks are victorious in the battles at Yeni Saghra and Plerna, aud the Rus sians are retreating to the Balkans, pursued by Sulieman. Rasgead, July 29, The Cossacks on the approach of Sulieman Pasha's scouts, fell back towards the river Tiete, which shows that the Russian corps which on the 27th held Tietisoum, had fallen back on Yantra. Oommunica tion has been re-established With Rust chuk, ' M;v - - London, August 1 A dispatch to the Telegraph dated Pera, July 31, mid night says : "Intelligence just received here from Osman Pasha ; announces a great Turkish 'victory.1 The enemy were completely' routed after two days of se vere figh ting, with the loss of 8,000 killed, and 16,000 wounded.
