STRIKERS, RANKS UNBRokEN.
Few Men at Work in the HazletOn
Region.

HAZLETON, Pa, October 22-Reports
from the few collieries that are still in
operation in this region show that the num-
than last week. Today was looked upon by
SEINE mine officials as witnessing a break
in the ranks of the strikers, but it did not
come. There was no marching this morn
ing but the usual number of pickets were
thrown around all the collieries still in
men to return home. The mines remained
heavily guarded In fact, the number of
coal and iron policemen around them has
been somewhat increased during the last
forty-eight hours
concerned there are no developments today.
President Mitchell still refuses to divulge
what move he will make if all the opera
tors post notices He will probably do one
of two things, either call a meeting of the
executive board and declare the strike end
ed or. continue the contest on the powder
question. Mr.. Mitchell knows exactly what
he intends to do, but studiously keeps the
knowledge to himself.
AT present, as indicated in his statement
last night, he is waiting for all the oper-
ators to post second notice.
In regard to the Reading Company the
United Mine Workers are ready to call the
strike off against that organization if the
bound themselves to stand together. This
company has all along been selling powder
at S1.5O key; SO 1t is not concerned in
that question, but must wait until the
miners and other operators come to some
agreement.

CLOSE A WASHERY
Lackawanna District Strikers March
to Grassy Island.
WORKMEN RETURN WITH THEM
Women and Boys Stone Work
men in Wyoming Valley.
FIRST TROUBLE THERE

SCRANTON. Pa, October 22.-The first
hostile demonstration of the miners strike
in the Lackawanna region was made this
morning at Oliphant, near where it was de-
termined to close down the Grassy Island
coal washery, operated by the Delaware
and Hudson company. The place had been
working force of thirty men during the
past two weeks and was daily turning out
a thousand tons of the smaller sizes of fuel
for the market.
This morning several hundred strikers
gathered along the road near the washery,
and when the workmen appeared circled
around them and gave them to understand
they must not work any until the strike
was settled. Two of the deputies at the
mine came on the scene and We're warned
against any interference. The workmep
decided they would return home.
The strikers marched with them back to
Oliphant, shouting they passed down the
main street. This was the first move to-
ward shutting down the washeries In the
valley, and if other men at work therein
do not come out there will be demonStra-
lions of the same nature.
No violence was used at Grassy Island.
The Delaware and Hudson Company has
fifty deputies guard at its Rocket Brook
washery IN Carbonate today. some twenty
men being at work there getting out coal
The large force of deputies was provided
because Of reported threat that the place
would be attacked by marchers today.
Otherwise there Is no change in the local
strike situation today.
Neither the Delaware, IIackawanna and
Western nor the Delaware and Hudson
companies will post any additional notice
to their miners. The general superintend-
ents Of those companies declare that their
positions were fully explained in the no
tees posted the first week in October,
granting the 10 per cent increase in wages,
reduced price of powder to figure in the in
crease to contract miners, and to take up
all the other grievances Of their employees
for adjustment

woRKMEN STONED BY WOMEN.
Stanton Waahery in Wyoming District
Scene Of Trouble.


WILkESBARRE, Pa, October 22.-The
Stanton washery of the Lehigh and Wilkes
barre Coal Company, in the Wyoming val
ley was the scene Of clash this morning
between the dozen men who have been en-
ployd there since the mineworkers' strike
began and a number Of women and boys.
This has been the first trouble of any con-
sequence in the Wyoming valley. The strik-
ers did not interfere with the men at work,
but on Saturday night, while the men were
returning from work, they were intercepted
by the women, who stoned them.
This morning when the employees started
for work they were met by large body of
the women and boys, who again began to
stone them. James OHara, the foreman of
the gang, struck on the head, but not
seriously injured. The mob took the tools
away from the men and broke them. Sew
eral shots were fired and some of the work
men fled. There were a number OF coal and
iron policemen present, but they did not use
their firearms for fear of shooting the wo
men. The workmen finally left the place
for their homes. and no attempt was made
to resume operatiOnS at the Colliery,
