CAMP is RE-ESTAELISHED.
Seventy-five Striking Miners Return to
Nortonvlle, Ky.

MadisonVille, KY, Nov. 27.-Fully
rs striking union miners have returned
to the camp at Nortonville, and from
their appearance and manners it would
seem that they have come to stay and
resist any attempt on the part of the
authorities to again remove them.
There is now no doubt that the union
men will make an effort to retain the
home Of the strikers" on the same
old site, a quarter of a mile south
Of NortonVille, notwithstanding the
mandatory orders of County Judge
Hall to the contrary. 1t is the general
opinion that before the campers can
again be dispersed more troops than
are now on the ground at the COM
mand of the officials will be neces-
sary. A temporary box house 20x100
feet for the accommo dation of the men
is being constructed.
