Mob Violence in the Mining Re

HAzLEToN. Pa, March 3l.-Another
crowd of armed men have started from
Ebervale for Upper Lehigh. to stop the
men employed by the Jersey Central
railroad from loading coal at that place.
A special train has left here with a de.
tachment of police armed and equipped
to resist any attempt at violence by the
mob. The result of this raiding is n.
waited with great anxiety. Our local
police is too small to contend with ex-
asperated miners, and call for the mil.
itary is expected.
A dispatch from Upper Lehigh an.
nounces the killing of McDermott, one
of the bosses there.
Last night coffin handbills were serv.
ed on men obtaining coal for the boilers
at Eckley colliery. The whole region
is in state of great excitement, and
the feeling is general that property and
lives are at the mercy of these reckless
men. This is the third day that demon.
STATIONS have been made. Sheriff Kir.
kendall has declined 10 appear unless
actual riot takes place, and then he pro.
poses to come from Wilkesbarre, TWEEN.

putty sheriff, now here, declines TO act
without instructions. Raiders are call.
