THE MT. PLEASANT STRIKE.
Men Will Be Paid Off Today and Hell
Imported to Fill Their Places.

The striking employees of the Mt
Pleasant mine were reinforced on Sat
urday by Michael Ford, Patrick Dono-
hue. John Sullivan and John Brill. who
refused to do the work assigned to
them by the company.
The men held a meeting Saturday
night in a. O. L. W. hall, on Lacka-
wanna avenue, when nearly hundred
We're present The meeting was en-
thusiastic and the men decided to stand
together
The turning point in the affair will
probably come today, when the men
will either resume their places or take
their time slips from the office for their
wages.
The miners and laboreTs who have
been doing the work of the strikers will
not be asked to perform these duties
hereafter, but new hands will be en-
ployed to do the work, but if the men
who are still attending to work join
the strikers the mines will be shut
down. and work suspended. 1t is the
intention Of the officials to import help
from outside districts 70 take the places
of the strikers. and If this is done there
is likely to be serious trouble.
Joseph Rudak, who was not in sym
pathy with the strikers. was assaulted
while on his way to work Saturday
morning. and unable to go in the mine.
Another man, whose name could not
| be learned. was injured while driving
a trip of cars in the mine on Saturday.
One of his feet was badly crushed.
The strikers are forbidden entrance
to the premises controlled by the COM
pany, and the grounds have been pa
trolled by members of the city police
force since Saturday.
Today's action will in all probability
! decide the matter, as the officials are
determined to force matters to suit
| their convenience.

TO BE PUT OUT OF THE MARKET
View a Trade Journal Takes of Drift
of Affairs in Coal Trade.

"The independent operators Of the
Scranton district seem to be i'm a fair
way to be put out of the anthracite
market altogether, as disturbing ele-
ments," SAYS Saturdays issue of the
Engineering and Mining Journal. Ger
tainly the new road from Scranton to
New York proposed by the Anthracite
association has received its quietus.
Recent purchases by the New York,
Ontario and Western and of the Tenn
pie Iron company have contributed To
lull the project into innocuous desuc-
tude and the rumored offer made by
the Delaware, Lackawanna and West
crn to one Of the most active OF the
independent operators has very likely
aided in bringing about the same re-
suit" ."

An ARRAY occurred Oh Spruce street
last night about 9 o'clock just above
the Arlington hotel Vincent GalvoCenI,
of Green Ridge, Pedro Lemeni, of Moir
court, Frank Josepho and Luigi Gialou.
ardO We're the actors. Galvoc Ani was
wounded in three different places in
the face and neck: Lemeni has three
fingers severely cut and 4 small scr ltch
on the forehead, and Josepho has
cut about four inches long on the let
forearm midway between the elhow
and wrist.
The fight grew out of the failure Of
Lemeni to loan Galvoceni some money
and really started in Casse 5se's hD Il,
ON LaCkawanna avenue. They We're
told to go home and were on their way
there when the trouble started lem
eni claims that Galvoceni cut him ana
he ran away to keep out of trouble
and does not know how the uthcc two
got wounded.
Patrolmen Quinnan and Gscheidl2,
assisted by Michael Welsh and James
Scott, arrested Lemeni a few moments
after the fight. The citizens had Wiz
messed the fight and chased Lcmrni.
They allege that the prisoner was Just
putting a knife back into his pocket
when they caught him. He denies this
though razor was found on him
GalVoceni was taken to the hospital
but Josepho and Gialonardo got ava :
but were arrested a short time after
wards at their boarding house in Ray
mond court. The knife. shaped some
thing like pruning hook, and with
which most Of the cutting seems to
have been done, was picked up by
Frank Sweeney near the scene of the
fight.

BAD LOOKING KNIFE.

II is a vicious looking instrument.
with curved blade about three inches
long, and could not bc used to stab,
TO cut with ii, one would have to hook
at the object attacked.
At the hospital il was found that Gal
VoceniS wounds were more painful
than serious, but he was very weak
from loss of blood. The largest wound.
about seven inches in length. runs from
the upper lip up over the right cheek
bone and out to the ear. 1t is cut to
the bone it's whole length, and required
seven stitches to close it outside and
three smaller ones inside the liz. Had
the wound been little higher up his
nose and eye would have been slashed
away. a small wound on the left jaw
and another on the back Of the neck,
just where it joins the right shoulder,
comprise the injuries.
His coat presents a different sight.
one cut an inch and a half long splits
the collar; thrce-inch cut in the back
between the shoulders: a fve-inch slit
III the left side Of the skirt lust about
where mans kidney would be under.
and a slit about ten inches long. start
ing Just under the right shoulder and
extending nearly to the tail: all indi-
cate the many attempts made by rhe
man welding the knife. The second
ana third Sits are continued right
through the vest. outer and two under
shirts, but there was no mark except
a slight red streak in Galvoceni's back.
EVIDENCE OF BLOWS.
on his breast and abdomen are sew
eral bruises which would indicate
blows from a blunt instrument. He
was allowed to remain at the hosuital
until morning.
Josepho's wound was dressed by DR..
O'Malley. No attention was given
Lemeni's wounds, they being too small
Josepho identifies the bloody knife as
his and says he used it for cutting
bread. He is employed as a driver at
Caponi's bakery in Raymond court.

as baker PatrOlmen Matthews and
