PRICE THREE CENTS.

was once more in motion after n suspen-
sion of about five weeks. The officers of
the company had made out a list of thirty.
three OF the ringleaders in the strike. and
the posse commenced making arrests, and
up to the leaving of the train this evening
thirteen men Gall Irsh) had been taken into
custody and conveyed to this city, where
they were examined before Alderman Par
sons, who remanded to the county prison
for further hearing. Among those ar
rested there are but few of the principal
strikers or leaders, the most prominent
indictments having disappeared to parts
unknown at the first appearance of the Of
Ulcers OF the law. Nearly all of them were
taken at the mine opening, and they APP
peared to be there more from curiosity than
sinister design. The men were captured
without the slightest resistance or remon-
STRANGE, and seemed to regurd the whole
proceeding as a matter OF course After
the men had been cleared from the vicinity
OF the mine buildings the police began to
scour the surrounding woods, and man
aged to gather in few stragglers who were
cndeavoring to make their escape to the
mountains. All the movements were made
with promptness and within two hours af-
ter the arrival of the sheriff the most pro-
found order prevailed in and around Moos-
ic. Thus far all has been plain and easy
sailing; the men have been arrested quietly:
there has been no disturbance of any kind,
and peace seems to prevail But those
who best understand the situation are bv
no means disposed to consider the difficulty
as even near the door of settlement. One
of the officers of the company remarked
to-day. "The trouble is but lust beginning
the worst is to come"
Talking with some of the miners in n
casual way, one of them ventured to re-
mark, "Bedad, somebody is going to be
hurried before this thing is over. "The
general silence which prevails in Moosic is
considered as onlinous of impending evil.
The bitterness of national prejudice con-
tinues to crop out strongly, and the feeling
of hostility to the Welsh miners, has been
greatly intensified by the scenes of to-day.
Stlll there is no open expression of repug-
nance, but there is on the faces and in the
eyes OF the Irish an appearance which does
not presage the kindliest feelings nor indi-
cate disposition to peace. But there will
be no conflict with the officers of the law.
The grudge is against the Welsh mine boss
or superintendent and his countrymen who
are willing to work under him, and when
the restraining force of police is removed
the discontinued Irish miners will seek the
day of their revenge. The feeling has OK
tended to the surrounding country, and the
eXcitable Celts are already preparing Cor
the anticipated fray. Between - and
o'clock this morning a large meeting OF
Irish miners was held in Deak's Hall Pleas
ant Valley, about three miles from MoOsic
at which incendiary speeches were made,
and one of the speakers declared that 700
men were ready to take part if the strug-
gle was preciptated 1t is believed that
desperate men from Schuylkill county have
already assembled in the vicinity of the
scene of trouble, and only wait n chance
to bring on a conflict. The neighborhood
OF Nloosic has reputation none of the best
and the community contains very rough
and reckless spirits, many of whom have
very little cOmpunction about shooting a
man from behind a stone wall or tree. or
beating him to death when overpowered by
numbers. 1t is but recently that an as
sistant mine boss, working for the company
which runs the Glenwood Mines at Carbon
Hill, about mile from Moosic, was shot
dead in his tracks and his murderers never
discovered. Murders have not been I'M
frequent, and brutal beatings are of almost
daily occurrence. 1t is the knowledge that
this terrible element has been fully ar
oused which causes so much apprehension
regarding the difficulty at the Glenwood
Mines. Important developments may take
place tonight or to-morrw morning.
The heavy rain which has prevailed al
day appears to have dampened the ardor OF
strikers somewhat but with pleasant wealth
er they will, no doubt, occupy the wood
in force, and make matters unpleasant
The company are still firm in their deter
mination to sustain the mine boss, and the
strikers are equally resolute in their dec
laration that they will not work under Da
Wis. The Glenwood mine is run by the
Erie railway company.
