PITTsBURG. January l6 AT a meeting
Of the coke drawers st Scat Dale 10 dsy
ali minera in the ConnslIsyile region but
two or three were represented After O
lengthy discussion it was unanimously de,
cided to ask On advance in wages Of 10
per cent. and If not granted by one o'clock
Monday afternoon strike will be declared
general
a special to the Dispatch from Con.
nellsville says: The situation at Mount
Pleasant looks alarming. The coke
drawers and miners at the Moore and
Standard works struck yesterday and both
works are now idle. A bowling mob Of
Hungarians have congregated in the vicin-
ity of the mines and will allow no one to
lit tool. In these two works are 1850
ovens. The strike IVES started by Huuga-
rians, and from present Indications it will
be necessary to call the militia out. A
report reached Connell5vile this evening
that riot was in progress, aud all the
coal and iron police, besides numerous
deputies are now at that point. In the
coke regions there are over 1000 work
men. If q general strike is ordered there
will be much trouble, and perhaps serious
trouble, as the Hungarians are turbulent
set. 1t ia the general opinion, however,
that their demands Will be granted and
that the strike will not last long. At the
Moore works and the Standard works the
strikers have been ordered to vacate the
companies houses within ten days and
have also been refused credit at the COM
pRnies' slores.
