Va., Aug. 6.—The Camden Interstate street railway strike, which has been on since Sunday last, was declared off Tuesday and all the cars on the Ohio, Kentucky and West Virginia divisions were being operated Tuesday night on scheduled time by union crews.At a conference here Tuesday President Graham, of the Camden Co., and members of the national executive board of railway employes, the strike was satisfactorily adjusted, the company agreeing to recognize the union and restore all men discharged without cause to their former places. The restoration of men discharged for cause is to be left for arbitration, the governor, one member of the supreme court and another to be selected to be the arbitrators.The settlement was reached during the trial before Judge Lallance, of the police oourt, of two non-union men arrested for carrying concealed weapons. Col. Z. T. Vinson, of the Camden Co., was present to defend them. While the trial was proceeding Col. Vinson asked the Judge if he would stop the trial for a moment and grant a private conversation between the union officers and officials of the company, who were in the court room. The Judge consented, and after a conference last-nig an hour, the Judge announced that the trial would not proceed further andordered both prisoners released, stating that both sides had reached a satisfactory agreement, and that the strike was declared off.All the men on the various divisions ratified the agreement later and traffic on all the lines was resumed Tuesday evening.There was no violence of a serious nature on any of the lines Tuesday.EXPELLING 8I8TER8.Disorders Were Reported MBritany and 8avorie.A A Ift A ft/Paris, Aug. 6.—The expulsions of the sisters from their schools were continued in the provinces Tuesday, and in most cases were conducted without trouble, but a few instances of disorder have been recorded, mostly from Brittany and Savoie.At Rigey, Loire, near Macon, the gendarmes were compelled to breakdown a scGpVPdoor with axes.At RrfsSfre, near Chambery, Savoie, the pflSfce found the school defended by a rampart of stones.

Ten thousand people watched them as they marched from the station to the camp. The Whites-burg company attracted greater attention than any other, from the fact that this company was organized under Capt. John A. Webb, a fearless young man of Letcher county, to suppress the kukluz lawlessness at Boone’s Fork, in Letcher county, dur-nig the spring of 1901. This company Is made up almost wholly of mountain teachers, and, although they have had little target practice, they are expert marksmen. The present encampment bids fair to be the best in the history of the state guard service.Camp Lawton, Mammoth Cave, Ky., Aug. 4.—The third day at the camp of the Kentucky state militia was one of the most enjoyable so far spent here. The Catlettsburg brass band was out early—at the first call, 5 a. m.—and, with the exception of a few intervals, serenaded the camp all day. It was the last to pitch tents when the tattoo was sounded at 10:30.The Whltesburg company, under command of Capt. John A. Webb, after marching two hours over the drill grounds, returned to the tents to prepare for a long route visit through the cave, which began at 9 o'clock sharp. They were accompanied by the Tyrone company. Miles Gibson, the youngest private in the Whites-burg company, and the most noted angler in Eastern Kentucky, took his fishing rod and tackle Into the cave, determined to have the pleasure of bringing some of the wonderful eyeless fish back to his home in the mountains. The boys returned at 4 o’clock Sunday afternoon.Causes Much Exciting CommemIiNewport, Ky., Aug. 4.—A stra aerial phenomenon was witnessed hundreds of persons in Newport 10:30 o’clock Sunday night.
