A TIIirMPIIANT RECORD. The Sail From the Soo to the Ze nith—Some Notable Points of tbo Vessel — Overwhelming Demonstration at Duluth— The "Whole City Takes a Holiday— J. J. Hill and Other Notables Present — Kxcur-ion on the Steamship in the Afternoon— Rapid Hun ot* the Twin City Party on the Eastern Minne sota. It was nearly half-past 5 Thursday eveuing when J. J. Hill's great steamer, the "North West." bearing about 160 passengers, passed out of the "Soo" canal, headed for Duluth. Of these 10 --passengers twenty embarked at Sault Ste. Marie, in which number were the six Twin City press representatives and General Manager Underwood's party, composed of Charles A. Pillsbury, A. C. Lorinc, James S. Bell and VV. E. Hale. The long delay at the lock was occa sioned by the numerous steamers that had made it a special point to reach the "Soo" ahead of the "North West" so that they might see her triumphal en try, and perhaps toot a little toot of envy themselves. As no favoritism is Captain of the North West. shown at the lock, the "North West" had to wait its turn with the rest, a matter of some five hours. The previ ous reception, however, made up in a great measure for the long wait, and thousands of people gathered on the dock, and remained there until the ship was no louger in view, never tiring of examining her beautilul completeness, if even at a distance. By the time dinner was finished the ship was almost out of sight of land, and the strong wind which had been blowing all day could scarcely be felt. Thsse who had anticipated a stormy trip across Lake; Superior were pleas antly disappointed, for, as some one of the party put it, riding on the steamer was not as rough as on the cars. Of the boat itself an extended description has already been given, but many further points or interest came out during the trip. General Manager of the Northern Steamship Company. Of the 150, or. to be exact, 148 em ployes ou the ship,;every one has been especially engaged for the work they are to do, each one lias a place, and, what is more, knows where it is. For Instance, in the dining room are em ployed some forty people, fourteen in the kitchen and the rest in waiting on the table and in the splendid butcher shop attached to the vessel. All of these people were brought from New York city and they know their business. It Is claimed, and justly too, that no restaurant in the East can' serve a better meal than they can. All ordering is done a la carte, so your board may be almost as cheap and just as expensive as you desire. The ship was built by the Globe Iron Works -company, of Cleveland, 0., of which John F. Parkhurst is general manager. The entire construction was under the charge of R. S. Hay, the com pany's superintendent. For two years from 500 to 1,000 men have worked day and night to finish what has proved to be the finest vessel for its size, if not for any size, in the world. The total cost as given by Mr. Paikhurst was $714,000, an enormous amount of money to be staked on any one enterprise. When the fact that something like $1,000 a day is required to run the "North West" is taken into consideration we can but wonder at the great daring and skill it has required to engineer this venture to the present successful termiaation. The engines and boilers alone cost $300,000, and they are the'first of their kind ever placed on an American - mer -hauttnau, and possibly on any such craft in the world. The engines are capable of develop ing something like 7,500 horse power and run besides the twin screws three dynamos, supplying power for 1,800 electric lights and several electric ele vators. The electric work was done by the Fisher Electric Light company, of Detroit, who had nine men for the same number of mouths stringing wires. ; The "North West" is the first twin screw steamer on the Great Lakes, and Ibr this reason Is much more easily, handled than any other 'one ''that ap proaches it in size.

A special feature, and one that adds much to the appearance of the grand saloon, is the finely designed balcony front.

Conclusion of a Most Enjoyable Trip. , : Duluth harbor never presented a more attractive appearance than it did yesterday afternoon at a little before 3. when the magnificent steamer "North West" glided serenely through its port into the wilderness of piers inside. All the people of the city had made it a gala occasion, the like of which will not be seen for many a day, and their eager and expectant faces lined every foot of available dockage from which a* good view of the ship could be obtained. A great number of tugs went out to meet and escort her in, among which was the Catrington, with Mr. Hill and his party aboard, who had left St. Paul on the Eastern Minnesota at 10 a. m. It is safe to say that it is a rare occa sion on which more noise has been heard in the Zenith city. Bells and whistles, far and near, on tug and fac tory, blended iii one triumphant din of welcome, and there was no prouder man afloat than Capt. Campau as he walked his bridge, lv response to the numer ous blasts he had but to press a button, and the whistle "did the rest;" aud a pretty loud "rest" it was at that.

Strikers Defy the Sheriff and the Military— Thousands of Strik- V. ers Getting Together Along the Ohio River— The Buckeye Troops Guarding Mines and Railroads Through the State. CnAitLKSTON. W. Va., June B.—To day at noon Gov. McCorkle received a telegram from the sheriff of Marshall county stating that 200 strikers had taken possession of a Baltimore & o'iio coal train at Boggs Run, near Wheeling, and asked for troops. The dispatch stated that the men had refused to sur render the train, declaring they would hold it in spite of the sheriff or militia. The telegram also stated the number of miners about the train was constantly increasing. The governor ordered tiie following companies to the scene: Companies G and I, of Hunting ton; Company E, of Parkersburg; Com pany D, of Mannington, Company F. of Burton. All were moving oil special trains by 5 o'clock. The companies will rendezvous at Moundsville and pro ceed to Boggs Run, reaching there to night. Col. Thomas E. Hodges, of the Second regiment, was in command. In addition to the companies ordered out the governor also ordered live other companies to hold themselves in readi ness to march at a moment's notice. He fears there will be serious trouble there, as Boggs Run is opposite Belmont county, Ohio, where there is a very bitter feeling against the railroads. among the thousands of strikers there. By means of the bridge at Benwood, three miles below, they can easily cross and join the strikers in West Virginia. Th.-re are said to be 3.0J0 strikers within a radius of ten miles of Boggs Run. Gov. McCorkle at |10 o'clock tonight received a'dispaich from ex-Gov. Fleming, at Fairmont, and C. K. Lord, second vice president of the Baltimore & Ohio, slating the strikers at Boggs Run had completely blocked the lines, and all traffic was suspended, that the rioters were going up the line towards Fairmont, and that only prompt action would, prevent serious trouble. After consultation with Adjutant Geu. Hooley. the governor ordered six more companies of the militia to proceed at once to Boggs Ruu. He took this action in view of the fact that the Ohio troops now at Beliaire will probably force the striker, into West Virginia, where they can accomplish as much mischief as on the other side of the river. TROOPS TRIUMPHANT. ■ - The Strikers Through Ohio Are Kasily Subdued. v Cambridge. 0., June B.— The con test betweeu striking miners and the Baltimore & Ohio train carrying scab coat is ended for tho time being by the presence ot the troops at the points of attack in Gurnsey and Belmont coun ties. Col. Hamilton's camp at Mineral Siding has been as quiet today as a Sunday muster. Thousands of people have visited the troops by special train that runs out at intervals from Cam bridge and by every kind of vehicles from the region for miles around. No visitors are allowed at night. A dozen citizens blundered into the lines last night and were held until morning, lest they might be strikers. The only train delayed today was on account ot a freight wreck near Chicago Junction. There has been a world of mendacious misinformation sent out. There have' been no attempts to obstruct tuunels or burn bridges or tear up the tracks or obstruct them, save temporarily to stop trains carrying coal. There has been no destruction of property attempted, save that probably several hundred bushels of coal thrown off at Scott's mines were burned to furnish light and heat for the strikers. The only violence that has occurred has beeu the stoning of a single coal train and the disabling of trains from running by purloin-, ing the links and pins, unpack ing the wheels and staving in of a few of the tail gates. There Is a feeling that the strike is permanently ended, but the weight of advice is that the troops should be immediately re called. The story that a passenger train was stoned is wholly without foundation. An obscure individual, who said he was a miner, made inquiries at two hardware stores here today whether they had Winchester rifles, and how long it would take to get some; but his authority to speak for any considerable number is doubted, as the miners are generally of the law-abiding class, and endeavoring tc keep within the pale of the instructions of President Mcßride. The New Philadelphia company de tained at Canal Dover were released without resistance, and arrived here today at ll o'clock, and with the two companies who went to deliver them, proceeded ou to Belmont county. THE WAR IS OVER. 1 A Speedy Settlement of the Cripple Creek Trouble Likely. Cripple Creek, Col., June B.— The excellent conduct of the state troops, acting upon the politic order of Gen. Brooks.has greatly tempered the intense animosity the strikers and sheriff's deputies have felt toward each other, and the chances for a conflict are more remote than at any time since the forces arrived. The militia from its position between- two armies has moved so as to prevent either side making an attack, and they have ex ecuted the order in such a politic manner that they won the regard of both sides. Several times the deputies began an advance, but were cutoff by the troops. At one time Gen. Brooks rode down the front of the dep .uties, and his beariug and words were of such a nature that be shook hands with the sheriff's forces, and when he departed the men gave him three cheers. Both deputies and militiamen prefer Gen. Brooks to Adjt. Gen. Tarsney, who, acting as "attorney for The strikers, has seemed to oppose the dep uties and favor the strikers. r The dep uties have at all time been desirous of advancing and serving warrants, even if. in order to do it it should become necessary to . engage in a pitched battle. The good work of Gen. Brooks is best illustrated by the number of times he has prevented a general engagement. Yesterday, when ■M-MM-MIBffhM*WMIW-Bg-BMfflrriiiiiiii-wiiiii _ i-s-y-n-Tnun SAINT PA DL / MINN.. SATURDAY MORNING, JUNE 9, 1894. the deputies were getting In range of ; Bull hill and the fort, they tired a.test shot, which the miners thought to bean aggressive movement, which they were ready to avenge. The warlike attitude' of the miners is so far changed that many of those for whom warrants have been issued have scattered in all direc tions, and it is not at all likely that Sheriff Bowers will find many of the men whom he wants. ■ .. V ' This is the situation at the point where Gen. Brooks and troops are lo cated.. Al other places the militia is ready to fire upon either strikers *or deputies as oruered, and the strikers and deputies are still eager for conflict.

The laud.com about nine acres, is now quite rough, and it is estimated th„t there are 46,430 cubic yards of earth above the level of the curb, and if this material is evenly distributed it will give an elevation of the entire lot of 3 7-10 feet above the sidewalk curb. The building will stand upon the highest point of the land, and the foundation will be about one hundred feet above the grade of Seventh street. The plans of the building are as yet undetermined, but with the natural elevation it will occupy a commanding position, overlooking the whole city, and will be prominently conspicuous i from all points within the reach of the eye.

Minn., June B.— At the morning session of the Augustana synod resolutions were adopted in structing Augustana college and theo logical seminary to gather an endow ment fund for the institution in such manner as the board may see fit. At the afternoon session the question of a theological professor con tinued. The following resolution was adopted: The synod does not at present con sider itself ready to elect a theological professor at Rock Island, but empowers the board of directors to appoint a tem porary instructor on said subject, and the synod advises the directors to ap point Rev. C. E. Elofsou, Ph. D., of Beaver Valley, S. D., to said position. Rev. L. A. Zitterstrand was elected to the chair of Swedish lauguage and lit erature, with a salary of $1,100.

June B.— Chief of Police Louderback, with four deputies, and United States Marshal Hawkins were going to Harmony last night to serve the seventeeu warrants issued by Judge McGregor for persons supposed to be implicated in the killing of Engi neer Barr, they met a body of men numbering over 150, .armed with double barreled shot guns, Winchester rifles and heavy clubs. The leaders said that they were marching to this city to guard the jail against a mob of railroaders said to be coming from Terre Haute to bring those arrested for the murder of Barr. The officers feared an attempt to liberate the prisoners, and they re turned to the jail with them, where watch was kept by officers and mob all night. The supposed murderers will probably be taken to Green Castle or Terre Haute for safe keeping. Coroner Mershon rendered his verdict in the Barr murder case today. It was that Barr came to his death by being hit by a boulder thrown by some unknown person while running a train on the Vandalia. Excitement is at fever heat here and more trouble is expected.
