SITUATION AT
BUTTONwOOD
Strikers Have Pickets Out, but Do
Not Resort to Force-Breaker Boys
Return to Work.


Wilkes Barre, May 1O.-All was quiet
at the Buttonwood mine today but
after yesterdays reign of terror
great many of the English-speaki
workmen did not report for work and
there was only a partial resumption of
operations at the collery. The COM
pany officials say the mine will re-
sumo work tomorrow in all depart
ments and every man who goes to
work will be given protection. The
strikers were active today again and
had pickets out on the roads leading
to the mine. They did not resort to
force, however, but tried to persuade
the English speaking miners from go-
ing to work. The strikers held a meet
ing late this afternoon and resolved to
remain out until the company REIN
stated the discharged employees.
Ihis afternoon warrants were issued
for the arrest of three ring leaders of
yesterdays riot The warrants were
placed i'm the hands of three consiables
who proceeded to Buttonwood. but
they were unable to find the men
wanted. 1t is reported that the ring
leaders have left the county.
The breaker boys employed at Nos.
and mines of the Susquehanna
Coal company, at Nanticoke, who have
been out on strike for a week past,
returned to work this morning. The
company refused to make any conces-
sions and the boys got tired loafing
and thought 1t best to go back to work.
