mistake, so the torpedo was sent on its
mission Of destruction. 1t struck the gun
boat fair amidships and lifted her clean
out Of the water. The government claims

800 Pinkerton detectives viii have arrived
in the coke region They are TO be sta
toned on guard duty, principally at Frick's
works. The strikers are exasperated, and
a feeling Of uneasiness IL very noticeable
At the strikers meetings last night the
strike leaders made strong speeches against
the introduction Of "Pinkerton thugs as
they call them. Each plant where work is
being done will hereafter be guarded by a
heavy force and positively no interference
with the worlSmen permitted. The execu-
tive board of the United Mine Workers

situation. Their decision was unanimously
in favor Of q continuation Of the struggle

money. Quite a sum of money was re-
ceived and distributed among the needy
families yesterday. The Frick company
claim TO have more men working at all of
their plants Out OF the 894 ovens at jim
town and Sterling all but six are fred,
and more workmen are at hand than are
required TO run the plants
Mcclure & Co.'s force is also largely in
creased. Fourteen families were cvicted

ting them to work at once in their various
coal mines, now guarded by the lsinkerton
men. II is also stated that these miners
are coming with the full understanding
that they are to assist in breaking the
strike. When the punxsutawpey minere
were on a strike a few months ago the
contributions in their support from the
