tween the two properties the marchers
were met by a deputy sheriff, who told
Them they could not go any further on
the Monroeville road.
The leaders Of the strikers pushed him
aside and marched on. Twenty or thirty
deputies hurried to the scene ana the
strikers were brought to a standstill
within twenty yards Of the trestle. The
men were very indignant and for mo-
mont II looked as though there would
he serious trouble. At this Juncture
sunerintendent De Armitt arrived or
the scene and told the strikers that his
men had already entered the mines, anc
that a battle with the deputies would bt
a very foolish action, In that IL woule
