of Latter Were Wounded.


Pittsburg, Pa, Aug. 22.-Religious serv-
ices were held in the strikers several
camps to-day and all were largely at
tended. but notwithstanding the religious
air pervading the camps, conflict between
workers and strikers took place in the aft
erroon, during which three strikers were
badly hurt, but none is in a serious con-
dition. Five of the men who are working
for the New York and Cleveland Gas Coal
Company this afternoon went to William
lannon's boarding house, about one-half
mile from Oak Hill tipple, where a num-
ber of strikers are quartered, for the pur-
pCse of persuading the strikers to go to
work. The meeting was a stormy one and
resulted in Antonio Podasky being shot
near the heart the bullet going nearly
shot in the eye and Batiste Dalmeso was
cut with razor. The injured men are
all strikers. This was the only disturbance
recorded at the camps to-day. The ag-
gressiye workmen escaped before the men
on the Oak Hill camp were aware OF the
fight.
be abandoned is denied by the strikers to-
day. and they say that the men will be
sent there from Plum Creek and Turtle
Creek.
In addition to the general missionary
work for the week, the leaders have decided
to direct especial work to the prevention of
strikers sss say = they will resume their march,
under the ruling of Judge Goff in the West
Virginia cases they are given this right.
Samuel DeArmit says tonight that $50
to 175 men will be at work in the Plum
Creek mine tomorrow.
It is announced that the New York and
Cleveland Coal and Gas Company will
make eight more evictions tomorrow from
eight different company houses. 1t is not
probable there will be any trouble.
The sheriff does not say tonight what
course he will pursue in the morning should
marching begin, but thinks he is ready to
meet every emergency.
Sympathy for the strikers by the farm
ers and citizens is not diminishing in the
least To-day there were about 100 visitors
to the camp at Sandy Creek. many Of the
farmers who came bringing wagonloads
word that they had plenty of food for the
men and wanted them to call on them
when needed.
