Work-Statement Of James.

i WorR-Statement OF James.
HAzLEToN, Pa. Sept. 1s..-Mr.
James tonight authorized a denial OF
a story telegraphed from here that the
Italians at Bunker Hill, seven miles
south of here. are manufacturing
bomb balls" for use in case trouble
with the police should arise. He also
stated that the printed statement that
committees had been sent to Altoona,
Pa, and other places in the bitumlrous
soal fields OF this state for. the purpose
of agitatlng sympathetic strike. Mr..
James said that no such movement is
contemplated and no steps will be ta-
ken in that direction while the antilra-
cite strike Is on. unless the bItuminous
fuel is sent into the hard coal regions.
In that event President Mitchell
would call ou! the soft coal miners
within forty-elEht hours. Contrary to
expectations only three or four clergy
men in the Lehlgh Valley preached on
the labor troubles and only one, the
Rev. Carl Houser, took decided stand
agninst the strike. He is the preacher
OF three Lutheran churches, one at
Eckley. another at Harwood and the
third at Freeland. He preached in all
three to-day ard pleaded with his peo-

Gompers Informed his hearers that by
reason OF their great patience In seek

cause was a Just one and by united ac-
tion they would win. They had the best
kind of a chance and considerable
strength would be accorded the united
mine workers by kindred associations
to defeat the operators. The speaker
also said that the clergy made mis-
take in advising the men not to strike
and that the wrongs Of the workingmen
were so great that they could not now
recede an Inch from President

Little Evidence Of the Great Strike
That Will Begin To-day.
lIAzLEToN. Pa, Sept 16,-With the
exception of President Mltchelrs arriv-
al, there was little evidence shown here
to-day that Hazleton was the storm
centre of the present coal war between
labor and capital. Nothing occurred to
disturb the serenity Of the Sabbath.
Quite a large number OF miners came to
town, but soon left when they found
that there was no news floating around.
With the exception of the engineers,
firemen.. pump-runners and repalrmen,
no one was around any OF the mines in,
this vicinity. Public meetings of min
ers were held during the day at Har-
ley, Ebervale and Freeland, on the
north side. Sitcpton and Harwood on
the west side. and ut ColeraIn,f south of
here. The largest gathering was that
at Freeland. twelve miles north, where
the union men are not so strong us the
organizers would like to have them.
This meeting was held in the open air
and was addressed by National Com
mitteeman Benjamin James and n num-
Der of other labor leaders well known
in these regions. There were 1000 per-
sons in the crowd. When Mr.. James
asked all those to raise their hands who
were against strike, not an arm went
UP.
All the meetings were held for the
purpose Of encouraging the men to
stand firm in the present conflict and
also to strengthen the union by re-
crulting new members. All sorts Of
suesses are still being made as to the
number of men who will remain from
work tomorrow.
