gions Cowed by Rifles.

g1ons Cowed by Rifles
MANSFIELD, Pa, Jan. 3O-There was an
other exciting day in the Mansfield coal
regions. From dawn to dusk reports of
intended outbreaks by the striking miners
in different localities came thick and fast,
and Sheriff Richards was kept busy dis
patching deputies to protect the threaten
ed plants. While there were good grounds
for the rumors, in every instance the prompt
appearance of the officers of the law had
the desired effect. The strikers would
quickly dispense without having commit
ted any serious breach of the rSSce. The
situation has developed no ii.@. ediately
alarming features. Sheriff Richards be-
lieves that the worst is over, and while he
does not fear further trouble he will keep
his deputies in the district for several days.
The operators and railroad men, how
ever, who have had long acquaintance with
the miners, do not share this confidence.
Considerable excitement was occasoned
at Bower Hill by the announcement that
the anarchists would raise red flag and
declare for blood About Is foreigners did
appear with their flag, but when they saw
the deputy sheriffs who were on guard
they turned at once and fled. A riotous
demonstration occurred at Bridgeville.
Twelve Slavs entered the Foster grocery
store and demanded guns and ammuni-
ton. They were refused and then became
boisterous, threatening to wreck the store.
A squad Of SO fully armed vigilance COM
mitteemen pursued the Slavs and arrested
three. Twenty-Five Slavs in the Toms
Run district, who are alleged to be con-
nected with the rioting at Stems mines,
were arrested and are now in Jail on
charge of rioting. The mine itself has re-
sumed, and quiet prevails in that district.
An attempt will be made today to start
number of works If no opposition is
met with, the trouble for the present may
be considered as over. The Beadlings are
we'll prepared for any attack that may be
made. A gatling gun has been placed at
the door of the company's store, and large
cannon faces the railroad. Besides this
they have winchester rifles for all the men
and large stock of ammunition.
