Fears of a Bread. Riot Iflllltla to be

Special to the Norfolk Virginian.
Pittsburg, July 25 11 A. M
Serious trouble is anticipated from
the growing scarcity of flour, bread
and provisions, and' it is feared that
bread riots may iiext be inaugurated.
The city newspapers have been re
quested to suppress anything relative
to this matter, but the facts are that
-women and children are now on the
streetsBegging for bread The sup
ply of flour cannot last but a !few
days, and as there is to be no freight
communication the sitnation is con
sidered very grave. The strikers say
that they are more determined than
ever to get in their point. A large
; number of United States and State
troops are concentrating at Blairs
ville, forty miles from the city; If
this force is thrown into the city it
will have the effect of quieting the
citizens and quelling the mob. jit is
understood that, the Pittsburg mili

ran away when the Philadelphia
