what the award might be.
MR.. MARKIE ANGRY.

Mr.. Markle concluded his address by
paying his respects TO the United Mine
Workers officials, calling them agitators
and charging them with being responsible
for all the turmoil in that region.
Mr.. Mitchell then got on the steps and
standing beside Mr.. Markle, told the
crowd that the United Mine Workers
would not accept arbitration on that basis.
1t must be the whole region and not a
part OF IT.
AT this point Farther Phillips. who was

ished and the French and Russian noti-
fication OF their purpose to begin nego-

much to do upon his arrival this morn

The indications are that the powers
are dividing. Germany and Great
Britain stand aligned against France
and Russia, while both sides are ardent

STRIKERS ARE MARCHING.

HAZLETON, Pa, September IS
Marching, the form of coercion used in
1897, began in earnest early this morn
ing here A determined band OF strik-
ers from McAdoo went to several set
Elements before daybreak and induced
several hundred men not TO go TO
work.
1t was the marching from mine to
mine day after day in an effort to stop
men from work that eliminated in the
awful massacre by sheriff's deputies
three years ago.
What is likely to become a serious
feature is the laying off Of coal train
crews. These men are likely to take
action designed TO force the strike TO
q quick conclusion.

REMARKABLE DEMONSTRATION

The meeting this afternoon at Jeddo
of the employees of G. B. Markle &
Company, who operate the Jeddo, Eb-
ervale, Highland and Oakland collier
les, proved to be probably the most
remarkable gathering of it's kind ever
held in the anthracite regions. 1t was
expected to be heart to heart talk be-
tween John Markle, managing partner
of the firm, and his employees, who
number $500, but it developed into a
Joint debate in which Mr.. Markle,
President Mitchell Rev. Father Phil
lips and National Chairman Benjamin
James took part. 1t began in digni-
fed manner, but gradually degenerated
into an dmpassioned argument and
wound up very close to personalities.
The committee of the Markle en-
ployes, which presented the grievances
of the men to the firm last week. call
ed a meeting for O'Clock this after
noon in front of the village school
house at Jeddo, for the purpose of hear
ing what Mr.. Markle had to say In
regard to the grievances. The United
Mine Workers officials also announced
a meeting of the Markle mine workers
for o'clock this afterwnoon at the
same place, abut for some reason not
known it was not called to order ur-
til after 4 O'Clock. The chairman OF
the grievance committee called the
one thousand people gathered there to
order, after which Patrick Gallagher,
miner, was elected chairman. The
Markle employees are equally divided on
the question OF striking, and some
members Of the grievance com nfstee
who tried last week to avert strike,
were accused Of standing In with the
company At the meeting this after
noon, the committee was asked TO

HAZLETON, Pa, September 19.-The
third day of the strike passed off quiet
ly as the two preceding days. Beyond
the occasional stoning of a mine work.
er going to work or from work, there
has been no disorder.
1t was estimated tonight that about
seventy per cent of the mine workers OF
this region were idle to-day, which is
quite an increase over yesterdays fig
ures. President Mitchell did not issue
a formal statement tonight because OF
his absence from headquarters. He
said, however, that from reports he had
received he figured on more than 1885,
900 being idle in the anthracite district.
He added that most gratifying reports
were received from this and the Schuyl-
kill district
No negotiations for settlement OF
the strike are yet in sight and the stu
alton in that respect is precisely the
same as it was yesterday. The United
Mine workers of1clalS are connning
their efforts to getting the men to quit
work everywhere, believing that they
cannot successfully carry on the con-
test unless every operation in three
districts is tied up completely. The
operators appear to be doing nothing
toward a settlement of the trouble.
They are working the collieries which
are crippled, as best they can. The
mine owners in the Hazleton district
complain bitterly of what they call the
"cruel tactics Of the union men. They
claim that the workmen who are still
going to the mines are being intimidat-
ed and even threatened with serious
bodily harm if they do not quit work.
They also add that most of the men
now idle desire to resume work but
through fear of the assault they do not
leave their homes
