ARMING FOR A STRIKE
French Miners Conceal Rifles
and RevoIvers in Their
Homes.

Paris, Oct. 21.-Two meetings of the
delegates of the Miners Federation
were held yesterday at st. Etienne
without any decision being reached
upon the question of the threatened
strike. Another meeting will be held
today.
Meanwhile the papers are devoting
columns to the situation and generally
taking a gloomy view.
Dispatches from Montceau-Les-
Mines say that, while the place is out
wardly quiet. the feeling is such that
a very slight incident would be likely
to lead to an outbreak of violence
among the 5000 miners in the locality.
These are divided into two factions
the Reds" who favor a strike, and
the ''Yellows," who are opposed to such
a step. The project, who has forbidden
the sale of arms throughout the de-
partment, yesterday seized two cases
of muskets at st. Etienne that were on
their way to Montceau-L Les Mines. 1t
is asserted that both factions are al
ready supplied with guns and revol-
verS, which they have concealed in
their homes. One of the leaders of the
Reds" declares that they not only have
Gras muskets. but also Lebet rifles,
ammunition and bayonets.
The chief element of danger is the
possible action of some 1000 men whom
the mining company refused to re-
engage after the last strike, and who
have been unemployed since.
Six hundred gendarmes are patrolling
Montceau-Les-M Mines. The manager of
the company does not leave his office
except in a carriage and under the es-
cort of mounted gendarmes, armed
with revolvers and sabers.
The leaders of the Reds insist that
a strike is inevitable, but many who
are in position to form a sober opin-
ion believe that a strike will he avert
ed, or at all events. confined to certain
localities.

There are no pipes in the world At

They are all. however. of the same
