Excitement SubsidIng.

COAL CENTRE, PA, Sept. 2.-Sherif
Chambers arrived here last night, and
will remain to see ample protection given
to all who desire to work. As the strikers
have made no attempt to interrupt any
non-unionist on the way to work since
Saturday morning, it is thought that
many will avail themselves of the Sher.
IFS presence to return to the mines. No
trouble is anticipated.
Sheriff Chambers called at the camp
this evening, and notified the strikers that
he would not permit any interference
with men who wanted to work. He as
sured them that as long as they kept
in the limits of the law they would not be
disturbed.
The Hungarians who arrived at Cour-
tenay yesterday did not 90 to work to-
day. The miners will establish a camp
at Courtenay tomorrow, and try to per
suade foreigners to leave the MOnonga-
hela valley.

The Present State Officers to be Re-

BOSTON, Sept. 2.-There are fewer Re-
publican delegates on hand tonight than
usual on the eve of a State Conven-
ton. This is due to the fact that there is
no opposition to the denomination of
GOV. Robinson and the rest of
the State ticket, and there is
general acquiescence in the plan to
make eX-Gov. Talbot and President
Hopkins Presidential electors. There are
no dissensiOns in the party and the most
perfect harmony prevails. 1t is under
stood that all the nominations will be
made by acclamatiOn, and the business of
the convention will be transacted in
very short time. A vigorous speech is
expected from Mr.. Morse and Gov. Robin
son will undoubtedly accept his nomina-
ton in speech. Mr.. Lodge
and Judge HOar will also be
heard from. Col. Hopkins, Chairman of
the Committee on Resolutions, has drawn
series of resolutions, in which it is
claimed that in regard to all manner of
reforms, whether in the civil service, in
labor legislation, or in other ways, the
Republican party has inaugurated and
sustained them. There is a tariff plank
and an Endorsement of President Arthur.
