Not on the Program.

An act not upon the program of the
Columbia county fair occurred on Fri
day at the fair grounds in Bloomsbury.
A Wilkesbarre woman found her hus-
band escorting another woman around
the grounds. She attempted forcibly to
take her rival from her husbands side,
and before the alteration was over the
trio had managed to get outside the
gate The two women then decided to
fight 1t out to a finish, and after they
had fought and pulled each others hair
Tor some time, they were separated.

say they will continue to close up the
collieries that have been in operation
since the strike began.
Some surprise was manifested at the
proposition of the strikers to have the
operators promise to keep the 10 per
cent increase in force until April /, 1901.
This effort to have the operators re-
leased from the contract at the same
time the bituminous yearly scale ends
portends, the operators claim, general
strike of hard and soft coal miners.
STRIKERS WON THIS MORNING.
Six non-union men started for No. .
breaker, Highland, this morning. They
were met on the way to work by several
of the Mine Workers pickets, and after
explanations by the strikers of the
action taken at Scranton the men re-
turned to their homes.
During the parleying a half-dozen
deputies stood close by, but the strikers
conducted themselves within the limits
of the law and departed well satisfied
with their victory
The guards had confidently expected
that the pickets' appeals would be ig-
nored by the non-union workers and
they were evidently displeased at the
turn of affairs.
NOTES OF THE STRIKE.
Another drunken deputy was stripped
of his authority at Hazleton yesterday
by Sheriff Harvey. He was nourishing
his revolver and boasting how many
strikers he could kill.
There is no change in the local situa-
tion today. The number of men on the
streets is as large as ever and they are
unanimous in their determination to
fight the battle out on the lines laid
down at Scranton on Saturday.
Daniel Lloyd, a striker at Coaldale,
was arrested and held for court on Sat
urday on the charge of assaulting and
intimidating miner who was on his
way to work.
G. B. Markle e Co. have not yet post
ed the 10 per cent advance notice at
their collieries. The union will not per-
nit any of its members to return to
work at these colleries at less than the
general wage scale, so that the strike
will be continued against the Markles
unless they come to terms.
The inquest in the case OF Ralph
Mills, the Beaver Meadow employe of
Coke Bros. & Co., who was killed at
Oneida on Wednesday last, while doing
guard duty, will be held this afternoon.
No arrests have yet been made.

OPERATORS ARE RETIcENr.

The individual operators who have ex-
pressed opinions are opposed to settle
ment on the terms proposed by the
strikers. However, the majority decline
to discuss the action taken by the con-
venton at Scranton. Neither would
they say what steps the employers would
probably take.
1t is evident from their reticence that
the individual mine owners are waiting
to see what the large coal carrying rail-
roads will do. 1t is reported that the
presidents of these roads will hold con-
ference in New York today for discus
sion of the action of the convention.
There was story atloat today that
the operators will accept the conven-
tions decision, but nothing has come to
the surface in this region on which to
base the report.

The NJ. X. and T. Railway is to be
extended from Mineral, in the north
west part of the county, to Webb
City via Columbus, Galena and
Joplin. The line will pass Baxter
three and one.half miles 10 the
north, and on Wednesday Of this
week Mr.. Richard Nevins. q civil
engineer and promoter, was in
town looking after matters per.
tanning to the building of the road.
Mr.. Nevins said Columbus gives
$1,000, Joplin $500. Webb City $500,
Galena $500, and he wants 500
from Baxter Springs TO have q spur
built from the line into Baxter. Mr..
Nevins could give no guarantee that
the road would be built to Baxter
even if the $500 was raised, but he
said il would be built to Baxter il IL
was built at all. The money 10 TO
be raised and paid over at once.
We have an idea that IL the N. X. &
T. wants to build to Baxter that IL
will do 90, and hardly believe $500
would be much of an inducement.
But we will say this: II the main
line of the proposed extension 10
built to Baxter more than $500 can
be raised to help the project along.
The road is going to be built, how.
ever, and now what steps are the
people of Baxter going TO take?
will they give $500 to get a spur
run into town, or will they make q
fight to get the main line? The
road will be built as soon as the
weather permits.
