A FALSE ALARM.

Hazleton, Pa, October 12.-The COM
pany men employed at the Derringer
colliery of Boxe Bros. q Co., began this
afternoon to repair the breaker, which
led the strikers TO believe that an at
tempt was being made4 to resume work,
About 300 of them from Sheppton and
HopeviIle then proceeded to the colliery
The foreman, fearing trouble, tele-
Qraphed for Sheriff Harvey and his depu-
ties, who were hurried to Derringer in a
special train,
In the meantime the strikers learned
that no preparations were under way for
a resumption Of operations ana the march
was abandoned. When the sheriff got
to the scene, everything was quiet and
the posse returned to the city.
The Governor troop arrived at
Oneida this morning and is still there
The horses are quartered in the COM
pany stables and the men In small hotels
at Steppton and Derringer.

The Eye

It can look and laugh and leer be

succumb or subjugate, retreat or

organ can also be misftted, abused

Mr.. Hartmann has always been d sound
money man and was forced to bolt the
Democratic national ticket in '96, 1t
was not until his recent visit to the

saw and heard there that he deter

party of Bryan. "While,' says Mr..
Hartmann, 81 love the Fatlerland as

an American citizen place the interests
of the United States first. / am not a
politician, but if the people of foreign
countries see in Bryan's election a cut

chants and manufacturers, then it is
easy to see with which party the best
interest of this country lies" Mr.. Hart
mann knows of wv other business men
of Wisconsin who went over to Europe
Democrats and came back Republicans.
One of them is q we'll known Manito-

that more Germans will vote for Nc
Kinley this year than did in '96, as they
are all strongly against the upsetting
of either the monetary system of the
country or trade conditions.
