of the miners. No matter what the

ton to return to work and a few more
Joined their ranks. These were from

CONDITIONS UNCHANGED.
The five hundred men employed at
the Beaver Brook colliery of Dodson
& Co., met last night and decided to
demand an increase of 10 per cent in
wages and the sale of powder at 81
per keg, instead of at $2.75. If the
company refuses they will join the
striking army. The Beaver Brook men
were out few days ago, but returned
to work yesterday
IndeciSion is the feeling at Stockton.
The 1,500 men there had expressed their
intention of going out today, but they
resolved to give the operators another
day and if their grievances are not
righted they will go out tomorrow.
Rumors continue to agitate brigade
headquarters and the various camps.
What was set down as a startling
dynamite plot came to the usual lame
and impotent conclusion today. It
flashed in from Cranberry. A local de-
tective gave the information that
quantity of the explosive had been
secreted by the miners there. Two
deputies armed with search warrants
and guarded by a detail of cavalry,
went over and made a thorough search
of eight houses without discovering
anything to confirm the suspicious. The
troopers went from there to Auden-
reid, where they visited the camp OF
the Twelfth regiment, and then to Nc
Adoo and Beaver Brook to take look
around.
The signal station perched on the
top of a culm bank at Lattimer, made
a report this morning which caused

morning, giving the appearance of a
march or a meeting of miners. Every
thing in the district was quiet today,
however, and no further information
was obtained.
The funeral of C1emano Paltrock,
another victim of the shooting, occur
red in Cranberry today. The Auden-
reid drum corps led the line of march
with the Synourl Polish society fol-
lowing. Two carriages containing
mourners and about 700 miners were
in the line of march. Services were
held at the Polish church by Rev. DR..
Aust and interment followed in the
church cemetery.
j. H. Jacobs, an East Broad street
baker, is a much frightened man. He
has received letter threatening him
with death. 1t was signed COMMITTEE
on foreign element" and read to the
effect that proof had been secured that
he had acted as one of the deputies,
and that he would be killed the first
time he ventured outside the city. The
letter is regarded as hoax.
Maj. Gen. Snowden and Adjt. Gen.
Stewart, accompanied by members of
the brigade staff, visited the various
