THOUSANDS
OF STRIKERS
May be Added to the Ranks OF New
England'S Unemployed.
A GENERAL STRIKE IMMINENT
If the Recommendation Of a Conference
Held in Boston is Adopted, a Hun
bred and Forty-seven Thou
sand Mill Workers will
Quit work.

Boston, Feb. 1i.-At a meeting yes
terday in this city Of So representatives.
Of textile unions in New England IL
was unanimously voted to recommend
hat all unions call out the operatives
in every cotton mill in New England.
The meeting was practically the out
come of the recommendation which
President Gompers made to the FEEDER
alton of Labor on the 9th inst, in which
he urged the different unions to unite
on some settled policy regarding the
mill situation in New England. At that
meeting a committee of three was APP
pointed to take charge of the matter,
and after a conference this committee
recommended that a general meeting
be held to take definite action. Yes
terday the representatives of the vari-
Gus national textile associations as
sembled in the Wells Memorial Hall,
and for four hours discussed the situa-
ton from every standpoint. The pri-
mary object of the meeting was to de-
wise some method of rendering assist
ance to the New Bedford strikers.
1t was pointed out that If the strik-
ers at New Bedford could hold out four
weeks without receiving more than 25
cents per operative a week in the way Of
outside assistance other mill operatives
could stand a similar strain, and that
If all went out it would preCipitate a
crisis that would have to be met within
a short time by the manufacturers. 1t
was also shown that the mule spinners
were in excellent condition as regards
funds; that the United Textile Work
ers and the New England Federation of
Weavers were also in good shape, but
that the rest were short Of funds. Not
a single vote was registered against the
motion that the different unions should
order a general strike.
1t now remains for the various ma
tional unions to take action on the
recommendations, but what action will
be taken is a matter of conjecture. II
all should acquiesCe and vote to strike
1910 BOO operatives would undoubtedly
cease work, and the manufacture OF
cotton goods throughout New England
would be at a standstill. If, on the
other hand, only a few unions SHOULD
vote to strike the refusal of the other!
would still keep a large portion of the
mills in operation.
Inasmuch, however, as the meeting
was the outcome Of President Com
pers' suggestions, and as he admonished
the members Of the Federation Of La
Dor to join hands and assist the New
Bedford strikers, it seems propable that
nearly every union viii carry out tn,
recommendations, and that one of the
greatest strikes ever seen in this coun
try is impending.
From the point of view of the New
Bedford strikers the action taken by
the conference Is scarcely likely to be

HARMLESS
SHOOTING.
A Woman Fires Three Shots at an In
truder.
1T WAS DONE AT CLOSE RANGE
After Her Arrest the Woman Tells a Story
Showing That Her Accusser Had
Made Illegal Entry to Her
House-Both Under
Heavy Bail.

P~atrlona, wife of Frank Cimbal, the East
Centre street ~saloonkeeDer, was arraigned
before Justice Shoemaker yesterday after
noon charged with firing three shots from a
revolver at Joseph Lswalis. The woman's
aim was very bad, as she failed to hit the
mao, although the shooting was at close
range.
The woman denied that she fired more
than one shot at the man, although Con-
stable Phillips says he took three empty
shells from the weapon used.
Whether one or three shots were fred, the
woman makes u strong defense. She alleges
while she was visiting the house of \ neigh
Dor and her husband was at church, Lawslis
called at their house aud broke open the
door loading to the saloon. Mrs. Cimbal's
children were in the house and they remon-
strated with the unwelcome visitor, who
turned upon and chastised them.
One of the children ran to the house Mrs.
Cimbal was visiting and the mother hastenod
to the saloon, where she alleges she found
Lawslis in charge Of the place. In response
to her demand that no leave the man pro-
ceeded to overturn tables and chairs, and also
threatened to throw over a stove which con-
tanned fire.
Finding her circumstances and demands
had no effect Mrs. Cimbal got her husbands
revolver and, pointing it at Lawalis, again
ordered him to leave. Tn man did not
obey, but made answer by making an
indecent exposure of his person and daring
the woman to shoot.
Mrs, Cimbal says that mingled anger and
modification took possession of her and she
fired at the man, almost unconscious OF what
she was doing.
When the woman was arraigned she
waived a hearing and entered 81, 900 bail for
trial at court. This done, Mrs. Cimbal then

cious mischief, assault and battery aud in.
decent exposure. He also waived a hearing
and entered 81 900 bail for trial at the sam
term of court at which Mrs. Cimbal's case
will be called up.

ED. HERALD The contest in West Maha-
noy township tomorrow will be a battle
royal. Both sides are arrayed for the con-
test, and every inch of the ground will be
fought. Some of those interested say sem
%Sational developments may be expected.
The fight is on the School Board. The old
Directors are up for reelection and have
their smissaries out in every direction. The
school teachers directly interested, because
they realize that if the old Directors are de-
feated it is not at all likely hat many of the
old corps will be retained. 1t is therefore
expected that the Democrats will resort to all
of the tricks of the politician to retain con-
troll. The Citizens will man the polls with a
sufficient number Of watchers to see that no
illegal votes are cast at this election, and il
any of this character attempt to vote to-
morrow it will not be well for them. The
Citizens people are determined to have an
honest vote and a fair count. 1t is rumored
that fraudulent tax receipts have been is
sued, and if such is the case there will be
trouble ahead for some one. This is given
out as a warning for those attempting this
game. CITIZEN.

MAY BE INNOCENT.
Friends of the Accused I~ncendiaries Say
They Are Not Guilty.

J N 49, SNJ
Mshanoy City, Feb. 14.-There is an ap-
parent change of opinion in certain quarters
in reference to the guilt Of the parties
charged with applying the torch to the build
ings in this town on that memorable Sunday
night. Not only do the accused young men
boldly assert, with an assurance that is
somewhat convincing, that they are limo
cent Of the charge, but there are any number
of disinterested persons who have changed
their minds in this respect. An e~xtonuating
circumstance is the fact that the young men
are of respectable parentage.
Michael FlemminR positively asserts that
he WAS not in the company &C tho other
young men charged, on the night in question,
and he has made no confession, and has none
to make. He was visited by his brother, who
is a respected resident of Pottsville and fore.
man of a repair division on the Pennsyl.
vania railroad, TO whom he made hat state
ment. Few young men have better family
connections, who stand high in their respec-
tive communities.
Darrah also asserts his innocence, while
Knowles says he knows nothing about the
fires. Young Richardson's parents assert
that their son was in bed when the hosiery
mill was set on fire.
If the accused can substant,ate these
statements in court, it will place a different
light upon the affair, and may make the
recent fires and their causes as much of a
mystery as ever.

1t has been ten years or more since Mile.
Rhea visited this region, and the treat which
is offered at Ferguson's theatre this evening
is one that every admirer of the best and
highest in the dramatic art should not allow
to pass unseen. AS Josephine in her Napol.
comic play, Napoleon" Mile. Rhea has
made a world wide reputation and ranks
with the finest actresses of the country.
This is a new production and is a stirring
drama. The chief action of the play is laid
at the time of Napoleon's expedition into
Russia and the flight from that country
followed by the presence of the allied armies
near Paris and the abdication of the great
emperor. Mile. Rhsa and her company ap.
peared at Wilkesbarre Friday night, and the
press of that city are highly complimentary
of the production. The Record says
"Rhea looked as we'll as acted the empress
In her moments of power and splendor she
was regal and q~uesnly and in time of sorrow
and sacrifice she portrayed the emotions in
the same spirit of resignation and trust, as
history has told us was the spirit of the rea
