TWO CLASHES.
Two D'Armitt Miners Meet Women
Marchers-Four Marching Strikers Ar


rested
! PITTSBURG, Pa, September 10.-There
| was clash between women who were
marching at Plum Creek this morning
and two miners of the New York and
| Cleveland Gas Coal Company.
About fifteen women were on the march
when they were approached by John Ho-
gan and Murray Sutton, two of the work
| ing miners. Hogan tried to push Annie
| Fiela, the leader, off the road, when she
| struck him over the head with club
which she carried The blow cut an ugly
cash in his head and stunned him.
The women then continued their march.
A short time later body of strikers We're
| marching from Center when a party of
deputies headed by Chief Deputy Young
stopped them and ordered them back to
camp.
Rudolph Lisey, who was at the head of
the strikers carrying an American flag,
refused to stop and was arrested. Mich
ael Grant then stepped forward and TAX
ing the flag from Lisey, moved ahead.
He, too, was arrested, as were also Paul
Popotaeh and Michael Mora, who in turn
stepped up and took the flag from the ar
rested men. The marchers finally turned
back and the four men under arrest We're
taken to the eompanys stables and later
removed to the Pittsburg Jail.
mass meeting will be held tomorrow
at Jefferson school house at 10 a. M, of
all the miners employed by the New York
and Cleveland Gas Coal Company. 1t is
expected the strikers from Turtle, Plum
and Sandy Greeks will march to the meet
ing place. Messrs. Dolan, Warner, Miller
and Mckay will address the meeting.
The meeting will be held to inaugurate
continuation of the fight against the
company when the price is settled
throughout the country
There is great activity at the various
mines throughout the district in antici-
patton of resumption next Monday. The
operators say that no matter what the
delegates at the Columbus convention de-
eide to do, the mines will be started. and
1t is their belief enough dissatisfied men
in the district can be had to break the
strike, at 60 cents ton.

The Last Chance to See the Home Club
Play This Season.
This afternoon the local team closes
the season on the home grounds, with
Mansfield as the opposing team. Mans
held is now the strongest team in the
League, but Wheeling will make a
strong effort to capture both games.
Kerns, of Beilaire, who is said to be a
coming 'phenom." will go into the box
lin the first game, and there will be a
big crowd of his friends from Bellaire
to see his work. The second game
will be pitched by Bates. Mansfield
has no license to win either, if Kerns
shows up as strong as is expected.
Manager iforreyson and Pitcher
Campbell will leave this afternoon for
Toledo, where the team plays a Sun
day game. The club will follow to-
night. Manager Torreyson will return
a little later. Heis anxious to leave no
unpaid debts behind and requests all
persons having claims against the club
to present them at the box office this
