NEWS POSTSCRIPT. 
THE RAILROAD WAR. 
The strike of the employes of the railroad com¬ 
panies, an account of which Is condensed else¬ 
where In this Issue, has reached the extent of a 
rebellion against law and order and all authority 
In Pittsburg. In that city, on Saturday, the 2lst 
Inst., a regiment or militia from Philadelphia, 
while on their way to the spot where the strikers 
had entrenched themselves, wero assailed by a 
furious mob. The troops fired into the crowd, 
killing twenty and wounding many more, and 
retreated to the round-house of tho railroad com¬ 
pany, close at hand. Here, they were soon be¬ 
sieged by an infuriated mob, variously estimated 
at from ten to twenty thousand. 1'hcse pil¬ 
laged several gun stores in the city and thus ob¬ 
tained arms, and, moreover, seized upon three 
cannon, with which they made a breach in the 
walls of the round-house, but were deterred trom 
entering by the tire of the military. To dislodge 
the latter the Infuriated crowd set tire to a num¬ 
ber of cars loaded with petroleum and other In¬ 
flammable matter, and drove those along the rail¬ 
road track close to the building In which the 
troops had found refuge. The sight or the names 
seemed to drive the rioters crazy, and they at 
once began to set fire co all the curs, buildings 
and other property ot the railroad company. The 
Union Depot, 123 Ilrst-elass engines and millions 
of dollars’ worth or other property wore thus de¬ 
stroyed. At. one time the names stretched along 
a length of throe tulles, and a number of private 
residences. Dear the line of the ruud, were con¬ 
sumed. Meanwhile all the criminal and rowdy 
classes of the city had taken advantage ot the 
disorder, and began to pillage the loaded cars be¬ 
fore giving them to tho names, and hundreds of 
thousands of dollars'worth of property was car¬ 
ried away by the rabble. During the whole of 
Saturday night t he city was Completely In the 
hands or the mob. Early on Sunday morning the 
round-house caught tire, and the military were 
forced to quit it. As they made their way through 
t he streets they were at tacked by the rioters, and 
three were killed and many more wounded, while 
the number of casualties among Litelr assailants 
Is, as yet, unknown. Having, In solid column, 
crossed over the Allegheny ltiver rrom Pittsburg 
to Allegheny City, the troops separated Into small 
parties, and the pursuit was discontinued. 
During the riot, which is still In progress, a. vast 
amount of property and several hundred lives 
have already been sacrificed. Of course, all the 
vast quantity ot rreight, destroyed belonged to 
parties at a distance from the place and entirely 
Innocent of all connection with the railroad 
troubles. The actual strikers, while doubtless 
egging on the mob, formed but a small part of It, 
but It was mainly composed of workingmen who 
sympathized with tho railroad employes, and the 
criminal classes. The strike has extended to the 
cievelutld and Pittsburg, the Allegheny Valley, 
the Ohio and Mississippi, and ino Lake wnore 
roads, and there is every probability that all the 
lines on which there has been a reduction or 
wages, will take part In It. In Baltimore, (Ion. 
Hancock has taken command and ull Is quiet. 
At Hornellsvlllt), on the Erie road, all trains are 
stopped, a vast crowd or strikers have assembled, 
and two regiments of State militia have been or¬ 
dered there.

THE INDIAN TROUBLES. 
The Indian warhascorne to an end, and Joseph 
and Ills followers, hotly pursued by Uncle Ham’s 
cavalry and troops, under (Jen. Howard, arc 
making their way to Munl.tuu, where they will 
encounter tho torces under Gens. Crook and 
Miles. The prisoners will bo tried by a military 
commission, and it lialC-U-d 02 en Indian agents are 
also tried and meet with the worst rate accorded 
to the aborigines, the prospects of future peace 
along the border will be pleasantly Increased. 
Despite the reassuring Import of the latest, tele¬ 
grams from the scene of hostilities, we should not 
be at all surprised If, in our next Issue, we should 
have to record more I ndtan outrages and an ex¬ 
pensive prolongation of the contest.

EUROPEAN WAR. 
The Russians have met with several defeats In 
Asia, and now the main forces confront each other 
a little to the east of Kars. The siege of this city 
has been raised by the successes of the Turks who 
have victualed It sufficiently to last a year. In 
Europe the Russians having crossed the Danube 
and secured the control of the river by the cap¬ 
ture of Nlkopolis, are pushing vigorously forward 
towards the Balkan mountain range, one of the 
passes of wlilob an advanced detachment are re¬ 
ported to have already scoured. Both sides are 
hurrying up reinforcements, and there is every 
probability of a severe battle ere long.
