SCoTTDALE, April 29.-Yesterday, as
sistance coming from Columbus, was the
labor peoples day to rejoice. To-day the
operators are taking a turn over the in

merry The Frick Company claim the
three days gone by has increased their
working force fully 500 men. Yesterday
and last night brought three special trains
to the region, carrying over 500-men. 10
day this force was augmented by the fourth
special train, with 60 men. They are nearly
all practical miners, and are coming to
stav. The best evidence of this is that SIX
of the men brought their families yesterday
and seven more to-day, The new families
are moving into the houses vacated by the
evicted families. The most of the men are
being distributed between the Adelaide and
Leisenriug works. The company now
claim 500 men at LeisenrIng. 240 at Adelaide
and III at Kyle. Their shipments have In
creased over 40 cars of coke q day in the last

to being thrown out by the Sheriff and the
deputies. Several of the old employees arc e9-
pected to return TO work tomorrow.
The labor leaders while not as jubllant TO-
day as Yesterday, continue to put on Dolo
front, and insist they are going TO WIN. WISE:
Mcbride and Disman held good meeting at
Tarrs to-day, and they say found the men oe-
termined TO stand out until settlement is
reached.
The big check that was looked for to-day
failed to come and, in consequence, many COM
mitrees in from the works Tor help were sent
away empty-handed. Some of them did con-
siderable grumbling, and intlmated that they
nav not come back again. Evidently large
sums of money will have to be hurried into the
region, or the strike will go to pieces.
