Even Children Were Among the savage
Mob That Beat the Deputy sherins-A
Few Miners Working Under the Protec'
tion of winohesters.
ScoTTDALE Pa. May 5.-The north end
Of the Connellsville coke region is in a
fever Of fear, excitement and anxiety. The
terrible work at the Painter plant OF the
Mcclure company bad as it was in itself
is feared still more as foreshadowing the
beginning of times and conditions that are
inevitable unless this strike is speedily
settled
The battle was between striking Poles,
a small number of deputies and com
parative few of the men at work at the
Painter plant Deputy Sheriff Sanford
White and Chief Clerk Ewing b. Roddy
were terribly beaten and are in a critical
condition. Five men and two women on
the strikers side were shot and two Of the
men dangerously wounded. Fifty-six OF
the rioters have been arrested and are now
confined in the Uniontown Jail.
The Painter plant was closed down by
the strikers on the oath inst. and was idle
until Wednesday of this week Early Fri
day morning Joe Sconesky's wife went
about to the other houses and got the
women of the striking Poles TO join her in
a proposed raid on the plant. About @
o'clock she had $50 men, women and chill
dren in the ranks ready for a raid. The
men remained in the rear, and the women
and children, led by Mrs. Sconesky, made
a rush for the cokeyard.
Women Fought Like wild Beasts.
This region has seen many savage affairs
I'm which women unsexed themselves by
90 ~f.1. 4
say that never before has there been seen
such a spectacle as this. Every person in
the assaulting party had some sort of
striking weapon-even the children, who
screamed shrilly as they flourished sticks
suited to their size. Many of the women
bore axes, and some of the men of the
mob carried ball bats and hatchets.
Deputy White was the first man at the
yard on whom blow fell. Mrs. Sconesky
had a ball club, and her husband welded
an AK. White went down before the front
rank of the raiders Roddy and clerk
named James Tarr saw him fall. In the
face of the fearful odds these two men
| sprang to his rescue and fought their way
| to his side.
Then the frantic raiders fell upon Tarl
and Roddy as White struggled to his feet,
blinded with blood. The three men fought
desperately, but the odds were too great,
and finally all went down again under the
feet of the mob. Roddy was beaten and
cut about the head almost as badly as
| White.
White is in the Miners hospital at Con.
nellsville. The latest reports are that the
chances Of recovery do not equal the
chances that he will die. Roddy was
brought to his home here. He is vomiting
blood and is a very badly injured man.
Two of the Poles shot in the melee are pro
nounced by their physician to be in a dan
gerous condition and are likely to die.
Sixty-three rioters, among them - WON
EN- and 10 children, have been taken tC
Jail, and warrants for 90 others have beer
sworn out, but the men cannot now b'
found. The Painter plant is in charge of
large number Of deputies, and the compa
ny is determined to operate it.

SENATOR BILL may be opposing the
tariff bill from a noble sense Of patriotic
duty, but We doubt it. His noble sense
wonld have given way, preferring
the less evil Of the income
tax to the great evils Of the Mckinley law
and the delay in the passage Of a re-
peal bill II Senator Hill had been so
thoroughly imbued with the majestic i'm
p5rtance of his opposition to the income
tax why did he not assist Bourke Cochran
aud Others TO prevent its success in the
House and TO prevent including il In the
tariff bill3 That might have defeated
the measure; it would certainly have
prevented the situation which appears
now. Did Senator Hill wish to prevent Il
or did he invent II? he certainly enjoys
IT, and attempts to profit by It He may
profit by it at the expense Of the party.
but it is exceedingly bad politics, as bad
as the snap convention, the nomination
of Maynard and his candidacy for th,
Presidency. But, we do not believe tha,
this delay in the passage Of the tariff bill
IS fatal to the Democratic party, thougl
We disapprove Of the delay. We take
cheerful view. There have been delay
before; there have been times whel
delay WAS in the end not only no
