 clines to Talk.

For the last four days crowds have been gather ing each morning and evening on hill which overlooks the colliery and throw ing stones at the men at work within the enclosure.
 The day and night superintendents do not live in the colliery as do many of the other employers and they are taken to and from the colliery on a locomotive. Last night the night superintendent reached the colliery safely.
 Locomotive Fired On.
 A few minutes later Superintendent Thomas came out and when about 300 yards from the breaker. he says a num- Der of men who were in ambush opened fire on the locomotive. Fortunately the engine was travelling rapidly and 1t was soon out of range of fire. The ofhcials say about ten shots were fired. The min- CTS union is doing everything possible to have it's idle men at that point keep the peace.
 This was payday at all the Lehigh Val ley collieries in the Wyoming Valley for the engineers, firemen and pumpmen. fire bosses, clerks and other company em- ployes for the last two weeks of May. Most of the engineers, firemen and pump men are now on strike. The pay cars are we'll guarded by coal and iron police.
 Dropped to the Floor.
 There were six persons on the locomo- tive the engineer. firemen, conductor, two brakemen and Superintendent Thom- as. As soon as the firing began the six men immediately dropped to the floor of the locomotive and It's tender and in that way saved themselves
 The window pans of the cab were broken and the locomotive and tender were perforated with bullets and buck shot.
 District President T. D. Nichols, who with District Presidents Duffy and Fahey were in conference with President Mitch- ell last night, left today for Bureau, which is close to the scene of the shoot ing. It Is believed he will get the strik- CTS there to organize police system to keep the borough quiet.

 It will be four weeks tomorrow since the anthracite leaders requested the call of special national convention to con- slider the advisabilty of involving all the soft coal miners in the United States in the anthracite strike. MT. Mitchell Was asked today by the Associated Press cor respondent whether he had the consent of five districts necessary to call national He said he could not talk about the matter.
