Tatman was worsted. Corhin was then on his
way to Newtown, but returned ia the evening,
and found Tatman with loaded gun waiting for

except one or two in the western end, where there
still exists some difficulty in arranging wage.
In the Lehigh Region number of the collicries

operation in a few days. In that Region they
found it necessary to regulate the rate OF wages
on different basis, which led to some delay, but
We understood yesterday afternoon that all the
