HazIe.on. Sept. 26.-It was learned
last night that Sheriff Harvey had tele-
graphed Gov. Stone asking that troops
be sent to this county on the ground
that the sheriff cannot guarantee the
safety OF persons or property during
the night marches Of the strikers.
Monday nights march Of 300 men from
Cranberry, Tomhicken perriU~er and
Gowen probably fastened the &>tiOn OF
the sheriff in asking for state help.
The strikers met after midn.Eh, at
Cranberry and when they reached
Tomhicken were stopped by Sheriff
Harvey and so armed deputies, who
went to that place on special train.
The sheriff read the riot act to the
marchers and the strikers then scat
tered, and began missionary work in
preventing the mine workers from go
ing to the Potts mines at Tomhicken,
Derringer and Gowen. They were
successful in preventing a large num-
Der of men from going to work, and in
consequence, the Derringer and Gowen
mines are crippled.
me most important ueNeIop"l'"O
here yesterday, aside from the request
for soldiers, was the answer OF q. Il,
Markle & Co. to the demands present
ed by the firms employees ten days
ago. The answer was not considered
satisfactory by many of the MarNe
employees and what action they will
take at the meeting today is not GER
tain. The firm fatty refuses to grant
the demands of the men.
The Markle firm last night an
nounced that at the request Of the
mine workers in its employ, work
would be suspended today in order to
give the men an opportunity to con-
slider the companys answer to their
demands made a few days ago. The
United Mine Workers held a meeting
at Jeddo in the afternoon before the
answer Of the Markle company became
public property. Many Markle strik-
ers were present. The principal speech
was made by President Mitchell, who
