Much Excitement Prevails in Mining
Circles at Lansford, Pa.
Lansford, Pa, Aug. 2o.-With all
lights out Tie train bearing General
Goblin and his staff and the First bat
talon of the Twelfth regiment, under
Major Gearhart, from Shenandoah,
steamed quietly into this town about
half an hour before dayhreak. After
a consultation lasting about ten min
utes between Goblin and Superintend-
ent Baird Snyder of the Lehigh Coal
and Navigation company with regard
to a suitable location for a camp, the
battalion disembarked and in few
minutes were marching to the base
ball park, situated on the western edge
of the town. The strikers were worked
up to such a high pitch of excitement
over the shooting of Patrick Sharp,
who is one of their leaders. that it was
feared an outbreak would occur and it
was thought better to have the SOL
ders near at home. During the day it
is the intention to transfer the battal-
ion to Manila park, about midway be-
tween Lans-ord and -Tamaqua, and
strike camp. The people of Lansford
received great surprise when they
awoke and found a battalion of SOL
diers in theii midst The soldiers came
at the request of the sheriff of Carbon
county. Contrary to expectations no
attempt was made by the vstrikers to
march to Nesquehening and no demon
stration of any kind was made at
either place.
The killing of Sharp is discussed on
every street corner and while the
strikers denounce it as an unprovoked
and cold blooded murder, the deputies
and coal company officials declare the
shooting was done in self-defense.

MARKETS.

There is a good market for every
thing the farmer can raise - wheat,
butter, eggs, poultry and other staples
of the farm, and prices do not ma
teriaIIy differ from those in the states.
Groceries, dry goods, clothing, ETC., cost
about the same as in farming districts
of Minnesota and the Dakotas.

FUEL.

Both wood and coal can be had at
reasonable prices. Timber belts skirt
the river banks and the shores of the
lakes, and coal is found in many parts
of the district. Rights to mine coal
on public lands for private use can be
had from the government at few
cents ton. Timber for private use
can also be cut on public lands.
