PrrTsBURG, PA, April ga special
from Uniontown, Pa, says: THE
threats have been turned TO violence, and
violence has caused death in the coke
regions, with the result that Company c
has been called to the scene of the tragedy,
and all is in ferment. The Fayette county
officers went to Adelaide this morning,
where they made two evictions after a great
deal Of trouble aud opposition. They were
then overpowered by the strikers and
driven away. Reinforced by Sheriff
Mccormick and large force of deputies,
they returned, when pitched battle took
place between the sheriff's posse aud about
800 hungarian men and women, in which a
Hungarian girl was killed and others in.
jursd, among whom are several deputies.
The battle occurred about o'clock this
afternoon, while the members Of Company
were lunching down at the boiler house.
CAUSE OF THE CLASH.
"The deputies were trying to keep the
Hungarians from carrying back household
goods which had been thrown out of the
houses in the forenoon. A big, strong Hun
garian was fighting with tie deputies, when
Sheriff Mccormick started to assist them.
The Hungarian saw him coming and tried
to shoot. The girl who was killed was
lover of the big Hungarian and was
tightiEga for him with the ferocity Of
a Young lioness. The deputies say the pis-
tol went off in the hands Of the Hungarian
and killed his sweetheart. IL it had not
been for the arrival of Company G at that
moment every deputy would have doubtless
been injured, If not killed. Sheriff McCor~
mick was shot through the thumb by the
bullet that klled the girl.
TROUBLE FEARED AT LEITH.
"Evictions will take place at Leith to-
morrow, and trouble is feared. One hun
dred and eight Pinkertons are stationed at
Leisinring, where eighty-hve men are al
work in the pit. Company G will remain
at Adelaide tonight. Deputies Crawford
and Kyle arrived here this evening with
three prisoners captured during the riots"
A RALLY TO HEAR SOCIALIST.
A special from Scottdale. Pa, says:
"About four thousand strikers were ssed
on the commons here this evening TO listen
to the addresses OF Alex Jones, the great
socialist leader, and August Delaber, the
international secretary Of the Journeymen
Bakers and Confectioners' Union. Early
in the day the strikers came pouring into
town. They all had flags and marched be-
hind brass bands. JameS Mcbride, member
of the Knights Of Labor executive board, was
elected chairman. Alex Jones was the first
speaker. He said: Black slavery has been
abolished under the American flag, the same
flag under which John Brown was hanged,
the anarchists in Chicago assassinated and
your brothers at Morewood murdered. /
prefer the red flag He dwelt Gt length
upon the cepitalstic press, and denounced
itin uncompromising language
DELABER's SPEECH.
1.-THE next speaker was Deaber Among
other things he said: Your newspapers an
nounced that two outlaws were coming to
advise riot and disorder. We are two work
ingmen who represent labor organization,
and we are here TO assist you in your great
struggle. When workingmen combine for
protection you are charged with
conspiracy and Pinkertous are
brought in upon you. They are
said to be the best to break strikes My ad-
vice to you is to stay away from them The
foreign element was then addressed, after
which Secretary Parker and james Keegau
spoke briefly, and the meeting was closed.
During the progress of the meeting Hun
garian named Momoga voted to return to
work and was thrown out and afterward
beaten.
THE SITUATION UNCHANGED.
"There are no special features Ia the strike
situation. The fight is being waged bitterly,
with no prospects Of settlement. The
Frick company claim larger forces every
where to-day, and their claim seems to be
justiflable. The Mcclure company also re-
port heavier forces. Labor officials state
that large number of Jimtown workmen,
principally Germans, re-entered their ranks
tonight Several thousand strikers will
hold a mass meeting at Connsllsville to-
