Ding motor while in Buffalo. He was
near the track and before he could get
away was knocked down and severely
bruised at the temple and knee. he
was somewhat confused for time and
was tenderdy cared for by a young
stranger, who cautiously assisted him
in removing the dust and blood from
his clothing. and then accompanied aim
on a car to the Doctors room. The
young man will never be forgotten for
his courtesy.
There is still considerable talk of an
other glass factory being built at
Shadyside The gentlemen at the head
of this move are still very much in
earnest, and hope to have something
tangible to work on in the near future.
The community at Shadyside is being
built up very rapidly, and II glass
factory could be located there, it would
only be a short time until the electric
line would be extended. The Morgan
Coal Company have ten double houses
nearly completed on their ground, and
may build several more. There has
been some talk Of changing the name
of the village from Shadyside TO Putt
ney This would certainly be a good
move, as the present name Is not an
appropriate one. Pultney was the name
it bore when the county seat was To-
Gated there early in the nineteenth cen
fury.
During Saturday and Sunday Mr..
Davis distributed s2,60s in strike ben
efts TO the lodge. The committee ap-
pointed to go to Pittsburg left at three
O'Clock and will meet the board early in
the day. The men seem determined that
their organization shall be recognized.
They fear that if forced to go 70 the
company as individuals, many of them
might not be able to get their positions.
not because of lack of ability, bus
for their taking an active part Ia the
strike. The men here appear - realize
that their fight is not yet over and that
they will have to contest every point
Tor the recognition or their uniCn. 1t Is
thought that it will yet be agreed THAI
this mill will be allowed to retain its
organization. The works will not be
able to resume for possibly two weeks,
as some Of the largest machinery IS en-
Iirely torn out and being repaired or
replaced. The business men are more
cheerful to-day and hope that the
groundiess, and that no more trouble
will be experienced.
Mr.. Haskins, of the United Mine
Workers Union, left the city yesterday
evening for Columbus, without having
made a statement in regard to the con-
dition of affairs between the miners and
the Empire Coal Co. AS far as could
be learned, there is no change in the
oil l.
will be trouble il an effort is made to
start with non-union employees. 1t is
claimed that during the past few days
a number Of men formerly from Turtle
Creek, had come here and secured EN-
ployment. There are a number Of new
men here and most of them have been
employed by this company in other
Places. They speak highly of the treat
ment accorded them. The local mat
ter at Trolls mines was easily adjusted
by Mr.. Haskins, and the differences
at Gaylord mines were quickly settled.
Conversations with the business men
in the lower end of the city shows that
they are anxious that the trouble be
settled amicalbly. Some of the more
radical of the miners talk as though
extreme measures would be resorted
to If necessary to gain their point. The
| conservative men favor a fair and
square discussion of the differences be-
tween employer and employees.
The new glass house was the subject
of general conversation among all
classes of people yesterday The citi-
zens gathered in groups to discuss the
great events of national import and
before separating would mention the
i'm n
whish every citizen of the town is in
terested, and should make himself a
committee of one to further its inter-
ests. The Board of Trade has finally
Weakened up, and for some time past
has been putting in some good ticks
for the new industry. They have ably
assisted the promoters in securing a
suitable site. The directors of the
Board held an enthusiastic meeting and
from all reports it looks as though
they might be able to do something
handsome in the way of furnishing the
ground free. Another meeting of the
directors will be held this evening. and
the whole Board is called to meet Tues
day evening. The architects drawings
of the plant will be on exhibition Tues
day in public place, where all can see
them. They show model plant, with
every modern convenience arranged in
compact manner. There are still sew
eral model locations in this city for
plants of similar character. There
is no danger that land will become so
valuable here that its use for a manu-
featuring site would be prohibitive.
There are still immense tracts of land
in the vicinity that can be utilized for
both residence and factory buildings.
