Che train was bound for San hranei ro. Regular troops were m.ii i..n-! on the engine and upon each car, The engine and four cars went down. There was mo shooting at the train. The killed are eugineer Clarke and privates Buris.Lubbearden and Clarke. Private Dngan lost both arms and is likely to die. All belonged to Bat tery L, Fifth artillery. Private Clarke was drowned. The others were crushed in the wreck. Another private uamed Smith is missing. Two companies of cavalry thoroughly skirmished the vi cinity afterwards but made no captures and met with no resistance. The train was brought back to Sacratueuto. The disaster was caused by the removal of the spikes from the rails for one hun dred feet. The miscreants had cov ered up their work with sand. While the train was being made up strikers in the crowds around the yard were bold in thair predictions that the train would never reach Oakland and it was greeted with shouts, yells and ' curses. The soldiers are savagely bitter over the outrage and if they are called upon to meet the strikers in conflict there will be none of the pa tient endurance of abuse that charac terizes their conduct elsewhere in deal ing with violent mobs. Two strikers have been captured, who are suspect ed of knowing all about the loosened rails. The strike leaders repudiate the aut The Weather Report. For North Carolina: Friday fair.
