Sheriff Toole is praised for his coolness
aud pluck. Had he ordered his men to
fire into the crowd, there would have been
| great slaughter. Coal Superintendent
| Adam Boyd and other miners, when trying
to escape the rush last evening, took ref
| uge in a livery stable. The crowd quickly
| surrounded the place and called for dyna-
| mite Sheriff TooIe and his men made a
charge and fired shots in the air. This
| scared the strikers into panic and fight.
| Boyd and his party were rescued. Later
the mob smashed part of the stable.
The following statement of the shooting
at Shenandoah yesterday was given out
| by General Manager Lathrop at Wilkes
barre this morning:
| Our reports from the district are that
at about O'Clock Friday afternoon Su-
Derintendent Boyd and several of the fore
men at the head of an orderly body of
men, numbering about 500, were escorting
the miners who had worked during the
day to their homes. At several places
large bodies of foreigners, mostly Lithu-
| anians, had congregated and any man
| wearing working clothes was a mark for
| these crowds. They first began by calling
them names and then resorted to throwing
| sticks and stones.
by this time few of the men had
reached their homes and Superintendent
| Boyd, seeing that further advance was
| impossible, took refuge in O'Hearn's Iiy-
cry stable This was at once surrounded
| by the mob
| The English citizens, alarmed at the
turn of affairs quickly organized a posse
! of about 400, and with several Coal and
| Iron Police, they marched to the stable
| and. after some difficulty, made their
| way through the mob. Guarding the men
| who had taken refuge in the stable, they
| marched out. and with little molestation
| safely escorted each miner to his home
Sheriff Toole had by this time reach
ed the scene from another point where
| he had been on guard. He quickly swore
in additional deputies. and. with force
| of 100. marched to Cambridge eolliery
| They accompanied the miners there to
their homes, and along the line were in
| tereepted several times, but no evidence
| occurred. Returning to the Indian Ridge
| CO e.ery. just across the valley from
| Shenandoah, with a considerably aug
| mented force, Sheriff TooIe made his
way through several large crowds The
| miners there were awaiting the party
Guarding them, the sheriff's posse
started toward Shenandoah. They had
safely passed the first crowd and near
| ed the second, when they were net by
volley of stones and several revolver
! shots.
The mob made for the posse, and sher-
| iff Toole was forced to give the order TO
| fire to protect themselves. This had the
effect OF dispensing the crowd, and the
men were taken home
