The right claimed by miners to gather
on coal company's property and pro-
hibit others from going to work was up
held on Saturday by a jury in the
criminal court at Wilkesbarre. A num-
Der of men employed in the Heidelberg
colliery of the Lehigh Valley Coal Com
pany, near Avoca, went on strike on
October l last. Committees were ap-
pointed among the men, who, it is
alleged, by threats prevented others
from getting to work. A riot followed
and stones were thrown, but no per-
son was injured.
The officials of the Lehigh Valley Coal
Company ordered the arrest of the lead
ers of the strike, and nine men were
thrown into Jail, charged with roting.
Among the witnesses for the prosecu-
tion were Foreman Owens and other
workmen who swore that threats had
been made by the strikers. 1t was also
shown that the men were on the COM
pany's property.
The defense opened shortly before
noon. Attorney Eugene Ward made the
opening plea and said the trouble was
caused by excessive docking and that
the defendants molested or injured no
person, but coaxed them not to go to
work. The defendants where then each
placed on the stand in turn and told the
story of the strike.
The case was given to the jury late
Saturday afternoon. and after being out
a short time the jury returned a verdict
of not guilty and placed the costs on the
prosecutor.

d Afraid the Miners Might Get Rich.

From the Philadelphia Record.
The stagnation in the anthracite coal
trade, due principally to the inability Of
the market to take the present large
production, is receiving the serious con-
sideration of the anthracite presidents
and it is more than likely that curtail-
ment in production for the balance of
the year will be agreed upon. The man
ayers of the Reading Company, the
largest of the anthracite producers, are
strongly in favor of curtailment. An
official of the company said Friday: ut
ought to be done, and is the only pos
sible solution of the difficulty
He also stated that the matter of cur
failing the production was being can
vassed among the anthracite presidents,
and that he was hopeful that such a
course would be adopted very soon.
