of communistic tendencies pervades the whole
coal-producing portion of the State. They
propose to wage relentless war on capita J.,
until they effect an equal distribution of the
goods of this world. The nationality most
largely represented is Irish, though there are
few struggling Germans among them. The
railroad companies are taking extra precaation-
ary measures Upon two recent OCCASIONS
ties were found fastened to the road-bed in
such way as to throw trains from the track
had the mischief not been discovered.
The leading characters are recognized as the
most reckless members Of the Ancient Order
of Hibernans who have been communicated
from the church. A mine superintendent says
for some weeks past he has noticed an unusual
and mysterious activity among some factions of
his employees, and strangers from abroad have
been among his men on some secret mission.
Another employing miner said he had become
acquainted with facts which alarm him, and
he thinks it necessary to take steps at once to
protect his property from the despotism of
cOmmunistic tyrants.

body was left on the track, but it was dis
covered before train passed.
In some regions the conspirators call them
selves Knights of Labor, in others, Gamecock
Clubs, and in still others places, Socialist
Associates, and they have rife-clubs who drill
nightly.
1t is learned from miners and iron workers
that an extensive strike is to take place about
the middle of the month Strikes are alrea adv
in progress in the Shamokin and Lehigh
regions, and the officers of the miners unions
assert that this is but the beginning of trouble.

in the eyes of the people: he had been a per-

during their long saturnaia of depreciation.
notwithstanding the indefensible practices by

was not SO destitute of probity as to be a con-

the neighborhood of Niaraga Falls 1t is
alleged that an agent of the Fenian skirmish.
ing fund was in consultation with Irshmen in
Buffalo on Saturday, and that he has gone to
Chicago. Also that breech-loading rifles are
expected in few days for an Irish raid on
Canada. O'Donovan Rosa in this city says
no raid on Canada is intended, and denies
having anything to do with such an absurd
idea. Both Rosa aud Eurke state that the
skirmishing fund is not to be used to send arms
to Buffalo, nor will the fund be wasted on
Canada.
A Buffalo despatch says that the story of
arrangements there for raid by the Fenians
on Canada is purely sensational and has no
foundation in fact. Three Irish military COM
panies hold their weekly drills, as usual for the
past two years, but there is no excitement
among Irishmen.
