A FIGHT IS BREWING
Citizens Preparing to Re-
Sist Attacks.
MINERS LED BY ANARCHISTS
Threats Of Burning the Houses Of the
Panhandle Coal Company.

PTTTsBURo, Jan. e9.-Never before uIu
the streets Of Mansfield present such a
bcene of excitement as they do at present.
There are well-grounded fears Of an
other outbreak and the law-abiding citi-
Gems are preparing to meet It. Trusted
foreigners, who were supposed to be In
sympathy with the rioters, were sent out
yesterday by the coal operators. They
circulated freely with the strikers, and
last evening returned with the informa-
ton that preparations were being made
to attack the works at Bridgeville, Rose
vale and Beading.
The feeling among the rioters II very
bitter against the Beading brothers for
the killing of Frank Stepitz, and they
assert that they will have revenge. II
another attack is made on the Beading
works the foreigners will meet with q still
warmer reception than that accorded
them Saturday. There are l2 men In the
Beading family and every one is as deter
flight mob Of several hundred.
Thomas Beading says he and his two
brothers fred at least 100 shots Saturday,
and he is satisfied that II Q search of the
strikers houses was made, at least Q score
Of wounded men would be found. Frank
6tepitz. who was shot through the body,
died yesterday. He was member of the
Sons Of st. George. and his family will 70
eeive death benefit Of $500.
Sunday afternoon Squire @. p. Mayer,
whose general store was attacked by the
mob, made information against 10 men
whom he recognized among the rioters.
Posses will 60 after them. Al present
there are over 100 armed deputies on guard
throughout the region, and this number
will be doubled II possible.
A Priests Observations.
There are strong reasons for believing
that the anarchists hereabouts are respon.
sible for the disorder. It 10 known that
the bulk of the insurgents came from
Bower Hill, and upon tho authority of
Rev. Father Jacob Wertz, pastor Of 81.
Joseph's German Catholic church at
Mansfield, there are at least 100 families
ON Bower Hill who openly avow anar-
49,
A meeting OF strikers b said - have
been held somewhere in Mansfield yes
terday, but where, or what was done,
could not be learned. After midnight q
number of Italians and Frenchmen, with
a sprinkling Of Hungarians and Slavs,
appeared on the hill above the burnt
Tipple mine of the Panhandle Coal COM
pany and made threats OF burning the
company's houses. The deputies on guard
fred several shots in the air and fright
ened them off. They returned several
times between hat and daybreak, but did
not carry their threats Into execution.

cleared. The first car arrived at Z o'clock
on that line and men were engaged all

A gang OF men was busy yesterday re-
moving the piled up Snow from the
streets and although il was beautiful
weather sleighing was not enjoyed es the
snow was too deep, yet there were gleat
many sleighs out and the merry jingle OF
bell made things, at least, appear lively.

A NEW CAPTAIN.

CAMBRIDGE, Mass, Jan. eft is gen.
orally believed at Harvard that the re-
election of Waters as captain Of the foot
ball team will not be approved by the
athletic committee, which has declared
against graduate captains. Professor
Ames, chairman OF the committee, told
Waters before the election that he had
better not run. He Is strongly opposed Co
graduate captains and will object to
Waters, who will be in the law school
next year. The final outcome will prob
ably be that Waters election will be con-
sidered complimentary, and he will re-
sign In favor of an Undergraduate captain.

What Ex-Mayor Carroll Thinks Best For the
General Assembly To DO.

To The Editor OF the Tribune:
The Republican scheme to pass an ap-
preparation bill and then take recess Is
proper II they wish to do 30, but the
House OF Representatives has the right to
look into the appropriation bills and to
summon before II every head and tall
OF every public department for the pur-
pose OF inquiring into the advisability OF
the amounts appropriated. In my opinion,
this will take some time.
Respectfully.
