day was full Of event and incident.
PURPOSE CONsUMMATED.
First and foremost the purpose these
men had in view when their march re-
ce1ved Its tragic end, was consummated
The 1,5OO workers at the Latimer mines to
whom they were bound in an effort to in
duce them to join the strikers ranks
have laid down their picks and sworn to
do no more work until all the demands of
the men at all the mines in the district
have been conceded.
Next in Importance was the issuance Of
warrants this afternoon for the arrest Of
Sheriff Martin and the 10c deputies These
We're issued at the instance Of the United
Hungarian Societies. They were made
out in the name Of Joseph Mehalte, presi-
dent Of the st. George Society. Of which
np2rIV m
Robert P. Riley, manager of the Anthra- l.
cite Detective agency, took charge of the
documents. but up to late hour tonight
they had not been executed.
Sheriff Martin, who spent last night at
his Wilkesbarre home under strong
guard came to Hazleton this morning
with the Ninth regiment of the Third brig
ade. His presence in the town was not
known until late in the day. Then it was
found that he was still under the guard
1ansh1p of the soldiers and he could not be
reached. This afternoon Constables Airey
and Gallagher made an effort to arrest A.
E. Hoss, who led one company Of the
deputies last night, but he had sought
shelter within the military lines kept by
the Ninth regiment and they refused to
permit the constables to pass the guard.
The warrants charge murder assault and
battery and threatening to kill.
A third event Of no less Importance was
the offer made by Supt. laval, of the
Lehigh & Wilkesbarre collieries to grant
an increase of 10 per cent over the Lehigf
basis to the men of the company, about
2,O00 in number. big meeting was helC
at McAdoo in the afternoon to consider
this offer, and after much discussion anG
speech making it was decided to accep,
the proposition the men to return to work
next Tuesday morning. But little conf
dence follows this decision as 1t is taker
for granted that soon the men re
turn to work pressure from the men Still
out will be brought to bear to restor,
them to strikers ranks, and it is admitted
that there will be no resistance.
'MURDERED BROTHERS."
This was only one of three mass meet
ings held today. Another at Harwoot
adopted resolutions expressing sympathy
for "our murdered brothers who were sho
down at Latimer," and continuing in thi
fashion:
For years we have been oppressed b.
G. Pardee & Co. by the payment Of starv
alton wages. They have deprived us o
our liberty by compelling us to deal il
their company store. They have forced Vi
to purchase powder at five times its ac
tual value, and have otherwise tyrannizet
us in ways too numerous to mention, 81
that we are no longer free men, bu
slaves. We assembled together PEACEFUL,
and to seek redress for our grievances
Not one man among us was armed Ou
mission was not to take human life no
to destroy property, but to go and NEE
our fellw employees of the same compan,
at Latimer, who were in sympathy will
us. We were opposed on the public high
way, and without provocation were sho
down like dgs
Resolved. That we deplore such re
sistance to the right to assemble AM
march. That we look upon such shootin
as unprovoked and uncalled for, and tha
If such slaughter is not murder befor
law it must be before high heaven. Tha
