CUMBERLAND, June The second
installment OF l20 foreign miners for
the Consolidation company arrived
hers this afternoon and were taken by
special train to Eckhart, where they
arrived about 5 ?. IN, and were lmme-
diately placed inside the police line.
Thirty special police met them here
and the utmost precaution was taken
to protect them from the knights of
Labor and the strikers. The cars con-
tanning them were uncoupled in the
extreme eastern part of the city and
there coupled to an engine which drew
them rapidly out of town, as was the
case with the first lot. The special
police thoroughly guarded them from
all outside conmunica ton.
On their arrival at Eckhart the great
est excitement prevailed, the striking
miners having cougregated in very
large numbers, calling to new men in
side the line to come out and desert the
company and they should have the
striking miners aid and protection.
or course, the new labor did not heed,
and after an hour all excitement sub
sided and the strikers dispersed with.
out an outbreak.
