NOT A POLITICAL STRIKE.
So Says President Mitchell. of the
Anthracite Mine Trouble.

HAzLEToN, Pa. Oct 5.-President
Mitchell, when shown a dispatch today In
which an officer OF a political organiza-
tion was quoted as saying the anthracite
coal miners strike was planned by Mr..
Johnson. of the national Democratic COM
mittee. the mayor OF Indianapolis, and
himself at a recent meeting in Indianap-
oils, said he was reluctant TO believe that
the gentleman quoted had made the
charge. and stated positively that the
story was untrue. He said he did not
know Mr.. Johnson, and had never held
conversation with him or any Mr.. Tag
gart in his life. President Mitchell said
that any man who would inaugurate a
strike In the interest of any political or
ganization would be deserving OF the Sc
verest punishment that could be meted
out, and that any person that would make
political capital out of the suffering OF
men. women and children in the anthra-
cite region would be unworthy Of the priv
iiege OF citizenship.

ARE IN UGLY MOOD.
Foreigners in Mine Region May COL
Hide With Police.

HAZLEToN. Pa. Oct. Eight Italians
employed on the night shift OF the Calvin
Pardee q Co. colliery nj Lattimer were
attacked on the public road leading from
that place to Hollywood early this morn
ing by twenty-five women, mostly Hun
garians and italians, from Minesviile.
The men ran away, and were soon out Of
the reach of the excited women. One man
received severe cut on the head. while
several others were struek by stones.
Some of the foreigners are beginning to
show an ugly disposition. They are seen
in greater numbers on the highways. and
as some OF them carry clubs. a collision
between them and the coal and IRON po-
lice may occur at almost any time.
There is no material change today IN
the number OF men at work in this region.
