> CONFLICT NARROWLY AyERTED


An Exciting Incident Of the Great Coke
Region Strike.
SCoTTDALE, Pa. Feb. 24.-A conflict be
tween the strikers and non strikers at the
coke plants near Dawson was narrowly
averted yesterday. A crowd Of 81 900 strikers
came down to get the men ia the Fort Hill,
PAUL and Rainey plants to stop work.
Many Of the strikers were in liquor, most
OF them were armed, and great many
carried clubs. Two Thousand marched di-
reetly on the PAUL plant, yelling and
whooping When the PAUL employees saw
the crowd coming they abandoned the
works in the widest confusion
Foreman McSioy succeeded in holding
the more excitable foreigners in check, so
no actual conflict occurred. Fifteen hum
dred strikers went to the Fort Hill plant.
When they got within sight they raised a
war whoop, and the employees fled as pre-.
cipitately as those at the PAUL plant.
At the RaineY plant the employees were
not so easily frightened. A mass meeting
was held by the strikers and a committee
appointed to lease piece Of ground near
the plant and 20 erect on this ground tents
and shanties. The strikers will camp out
in these and use every effort to persuade
Rainey's men to join them
Secretary Parker will call out the min
