The Third Brigade Modified at Hazelton,
and the First Brigade He'd in Readi-
ness.
HARRISBURG, Pa, September 10
Governor Hastings tonight ordered out
the Third Brigade and instructed Gen.
Schall to hold the First Brigade in readi-
ness. The troops will mobilize at Halle
ton and are expected TO be on the scene
before daybreak. Capt. A. r. Paxton. U.
S. A, attached to the National Guard,
started to Hazleton tonight by direction
of the Governor. Supt. Creighton, of the
middle division of the Pennsylvania Rail-
way, was called into conference at the
Executive Mansion and has arranged for
the speedy transportation of the soldiers.
The Governor received a copy of reso-
lutions adopted at a mass meeting to-
night at Hazleton, urging the sheriff of
Luzerne county to at once ask the Ex-
ecutive for protection to life and prop
erty. The resolutions are signed by Alvin
Markle and other prominent citizens of
Haz-eton. Irving A. Stearns, Of Wilkes
barre, sent telegram to the Governor
that it was absolutely necessary that
troops be sent to the strike region to quell
the lawlessness.
Governor Hastings tonight received
word from the sheriff of Luzerne comfy
that he had exhausted all his powers in
trying TO suppress the mob near Hazeton,
and now asked for military assistance.
The sheriff fears that there win be much
loss of life if he attempts to cope with the
rioters tomorrow. Col. C. B. Dougherty,
of Wilkesbarre, sent a telegram corrobo-
rating the sheriff's story, and suggested
that the First and Third Brigades be
summoned TO the sheriff's relief.
The Governor has summoned Adjutant
General Stewart and General Goblin and
they viii be here some time tonight. 1t
is quite certain that the Third brigade
will be called out before morning.
