l0 TEST MNCTIONS.

Strikers Will Continue Marching and
Will Invite Arrest.

THIS PLAN TO BE RBPEATED.

 

Public Opinion, It Is Thought, Will Thu-
Be Aroused by the Filling of Jails
With Workingmen—The Crisis
at Cofl‘een Is Ended.

Pittsburg, Aug. 13.——The striking min-
ers at Canonsburg have determined to
force the injunction issue by continuing
the daily marches and meetings in the
neighborhood of the McGovern and
Canonsburg mines in spite of the order
of Judge McIlwaine of Washington, for-
bidding marches on the public roads
leading -to the mines. The purpose is
to have the men arrested in order to
test the legality of the injunction. Pat-
rick Dolan stated that it had been de-
termined to keep up the marches. As
fast as one group is arrested anotherwill
take its place until there will be so
many of them in jail that the public
opinion of the community and country
will be aroused on the question of the
alleged new form” of injunction. In this
movement the support of all the lead-
ing trades unions of the country is said
to have been pledged as a result of a se-
cret meeting at Columbus during the
last three days and which was presided
over by Samuel Gompers, president of
the American Federation of Labor. In-
formation has been received by the
Pittsburg operators that the miners of
the Bell, Lewis and Yates company have
struck in the Reynoldsville district and
that all the mines of the company are
idle.

Thousands Said to Be Out.

The company is one of the heaviest
tonnage producers in the northern field
and shipped extensively to the Buffalo
and New York state markets, as well
as to the eastern seaboard coaling
docks. About 8,000 men are employed.
No information has been received from
the Punxsutawney and Clearfield dis-
tricts, but at East Brady it was report-
ed that the miners at several pits in
those districts are out, their grievances
being of a local nature and independent
of the national strike. The usual march
of the miners was made at Turtle Creek
today, but there was little to encourage
the strikers, as more men went into the
pit today than yesterday. The strikers
say they are not disheartened, however,
and with plenty ofprovisions they will
stick to the work on hand.

The last run of coal at the Turtle
Creek mine was five cars of lump coal,
one of nut and one of slack. Serious

trouble was threatened at Unity today.
‘ Deputy Sheriff Richards was in charge
of some men going to work. and the
strikers ran ahead of the men hooting
and jeering them. Sheriff Richards on
dered the strikers to move, but they
refused. He then called on his’other
’ deputies to assrst him, and the strikers,
seeing that he meant what he said,
moved off, still booting the men going
in to work.

. The. Situation at Cofl'ecn.

Coffeen. 1115., Aug. 13,—The farmers
of Montgomery county have won a de-
cisive victory against the crusaders,
and the strikers will leave the neighs
borhood without having accomplished
their purpose of getting the Coffeen
mines closed and the miners out. A
firm stand taken by Sheriff Randall, in
which he has been backed up by the
300 men, mostly farmers, who were
sworn in as deputies, has prevented
trouble, though the citizens have feared
all sorts of things.

An order that no body of men should
be permitted to march or gather on the
streets has been strictly enforced. This
was well illustrated when General
Bradley appeared before the picket post
on the Clover Leaf railroad. Twenty-.
four deputies were lying in the shade
of the freight cars when the sharp
command of “Haiti” from one of the
advanced pickets caused a scramble for
rifles. The sentinel who had given the
command followed it by challenging
the two men who stood in front of his
fixed bayonet.

“I’m General Bradley,” said the lead-
er of the crusade, with a feeble smile,
“and I want to be escorted to the
mayor.”

The deputies refused and kept the two
crusaders on the outside until Mayor
I‘raynor had been sent for. Then Brad—
ley began to plead to be allowed to pa-
rade through the town. The mayor said
:hat his proclamation was still good and
that the marching strikers could not en-
ter Coffeen. Mayor Traynor said that
itvrwas worth much to establish the prec-
edent that a town or city could keep
out of its borders those whom it regard-
ed as a menace to its peace and pros-
perity,

More West Virginians Quit.

\Vheeling, Aug. 13.-—About 250 miners
from Ohio marched through Wheeling
t0 Riverside early today. There they
met 500 of the Moundsville, Glendale
and Boggs Run diggers, who had done
guard duty all night. After a few min-
utes’ persuasion the men who had been
at work in the two last named mines
were induced to quit work, with the ex-
ception of a few small peddling miners
who mpply the local household de-
mjnd.

The entire Panhandle district was
idle today. The strikers in the Kana-
wha valley are rapidly losing ground.
The reports show that a good many
men have taken up their picks on both
sides of the river.

A great deal of listlessness exists in
the Fairmont district. The local labor
agitators are waiting for the conference
of national labor leaders to be held at
Monongah.

Indiana Yields to Knight.

Evansville, Ind., Aug. 13.—President
Knight of the Indiana Miners’ associa-
tion attended a mass meeting of dig-
gers, representing all of the mines of
‘this district, five of which are still in
operation. After a long speech, a reso-
lution was unanimously adopted by rep-
resentatives of all mines agreeing that
the local miners will lay down their
tools at once and remain idle until the
big strike is settled. Knight will go
from here to the mines at Earlington,
Ky.

Many Need Food.

Brazil, Ind., Aug. 13.——The executive
board of the miners of this district to-
day gave out the statement that there
were 7,187 persons in the various mining
camps in absolute need of food. The

 

distributions made here on Saturday
averaged 7 cents per capita. The lead-
ers say that if the strike continues long,
hundreds more of destitute families will
be added to the list of the needy.

One Mine Resumes \Vork.

Altoona. Pa., Aug. 13.—The firm of
Taylor & McCoy posted notices at their
Gallitzin coal mines that they would
pay the district price, 40 cents a net ton,
for all coal mined. Six weeks ago they
reduced the price of coal going into
coke to 35 cents a net ton, and the mines
have since been closed down. On the
strength of this notice all their men re-
sumed work.

Encouraging to Miners.
Columbus, 0., Aug. 13.—A message to
miners’ headquarters says Reynolds-
ville and Rathmil (Pa.) mines, capacity
-‘4,000 tons per day, are closed.

SINGING DISTURBS THEM.

Secret Societies In New Brunswick, N.
J., Annoyed by a. Salvation Lassie.

New Brunswick, N. J., Aug. 13.—The
strong voice of a Salvation Army lassie
is arousing the wrath of the secret so-
cieties of this city. Nearly all the local
lodges have quarters in bulidings at or
near the corner of George and Church
streets. This is one of the busiest places
in town and is therefore the best place
for the Salvation Army to hold forth.
Every night the Army holds meetings
at this‘corner.

Before the advent of Miss Lovell, the
new captain, theArmy’s funds were low
and its soldiers dispirited. But when
the young woman began to sing with
her remarkable voice religious words to
the tune of “A Hot Time In the Old
Town Tonight” and “Just Tell Them
That You Saw Me,” the attendance and
receipts grew to a wonderful extent.
When the lodges met, the singing inter-
rupted their proceedings. The goat re-
fused to perform his duties. The Sal~
vationists say that it is woman’s jeal-
ousy that causes the trouble. It was a
woman’s lodge that first made open ob-
jection to Captain Lovell’s singing. A
committee was appointed to persuade
the Salvationists to select another cor-
ner or else to have them suppressed by
the police.

BNGLAND’S SNBBRS.

Sherman’s Alleged Sen-ility and Its Pos-
sible Consequences. '

London, Aug. 13.—The Westminster
Gazette this afternoon publishes a long
leading article, during the course of
which the opinion is expressed that if
Secretary Sherman is forced to retire
from office he will “make Ohio too hot
for Senator Hanna,” adding:

“It is awful to contemplate the re—
sults of Mr. Hanna being done out Of
his price for making McKinley presi—
dent. Some innocents may object that
if Sherman is too senile to hold office
he must be too senile for the senate.
But, as a matter of fact, no one has
yet estimated how incompetent a man
must be before the senate is closed to
him. in this he shares the advantage

 

,OF the house of lords." .

In conclusion the W'estminster Ga-
zette remarks: “\Ye are rather sorry if
Secretary Sherman is to be superseded,
as in his own rough way he expresses
a phase of American feeling which it
is important for us to know.”

Radiord Convicted of Murder.

Washington, Aug. 13.—The United
States consul at Medellin, Colombia, re-
ports that the long pending trial of
Charles Radford. a native of Alabama,
