The Pennsylvania Disturbances.


A Fight Between the Strikers and the
Molly Maguires.
NEW YORK, Aug. 2O.-Pennsylvani specials
say that 1000 idle workmen of the Pennsylva-
mia coal company, have been requested to re-
sumo work at the old rates. and trust to the
Judgment of the company for higher wages.
They declined, fearing trap. They were COM
relied to be idle by the burning of one of the
company's engine houses fortnight ago, and
would have returned to work if asked in the
usual way, but they refuse to sign any binding
agreements
In the Lackawanna region, the desperation
of the idle miners cannot be described. Fifty
thousand men are striking, and great trouble
is feared next winter.
The Union collieries Of the Schuylkill region
are raising $25, 900 to assist the strikers.
In the Lehigh region the miners meeting de-
nounced the 'blacklegs," and the coal break
ers are placarded with notes ordering operations
to cease. The attempt to start the cOlieries on
the north side today, it is feared, will cause
trouble
mokin region, and outlaws are threatening
vengeance. Attempts were made to fire the
Mineral company's collieries Saturday night,
and the bridge of the Northern Central railroad
was fired, but the flames were extnguished.
Some employers of the Cameron, Luke Fid-
dler and Hickory Ridge collieres desire to re-
turn to work. but this would precipitate grave
troubles.
Some Molly Maguires from Locust gap had
fight with the strikers near Mount Carmel.
Two of the strikers we're severely injured.
Three Moli-~~were thrown down the mountain
side and probably killed.
Threatened Raid on Colliery.
HAzELToN, Aug 20 An attempt was made
by the strikers at Beaver Brook last night to
master force for raid on Crystal Ridge, one
of the colieries of 4. Pardee & Co The men
of this colliery and all others operated by the
above firm, refused to join in the strike last
week, aud have been working steadily since.
Information of the intended raid was received
here last night, and a force of citizens soon col
lected to resist any attempt to damage or de-
stroy property. Towards morning word was
received that the raiders after having forced
the Yorktown men to join them. were obliged
to relirquish their design, failing to get the
Hovey Brook men out With the assistance of
the latter the crowd would have been formida-
BILE, although the vigilance committee were
prepared to resist any attempt at violence. All
the collieries are i'll operation since the strike
and are working today.
