SPECIAL MINE POLICEMAN
Is MORBED BY STRIKERS

HAZLETON, Pa, Aug. 26.-August
Scheuch, aged Sc years. a special police
man in the service of the Lehigh Valley
Coal company, was assaulted and stabbed
on the outskirts early yesterday, while at
tempting to rescue his son, William
Scheuch, a non-union workman employed
at the companys No. 40 colliery, from a
mob of about 5000 strikers. who had gath
cred from all parts of the Hazelton re-
gion on the roads leading to the mine TO
Illustrate the plans of the company for
a partial resumption of operations with
a non-union force of $50 hands.
A majority of the non-union men were
taken to the workings in a special train.
which the strikers did not anticipate to
interfere with.
Mr.. Scheuch. who lives in this city,
walked from his home toward the col
liery, and thus fell into the hands of the
pickets. Most of his clothing was torn
from his back in the struggle which fol-
lowed.
Scheuch rushed to his aid and the mob
set upon the elder Scheuch, who was
finally rescued by a mine foreman and re-
moved to the miners hospital Scheuch
was stabbed in the breast and on each
hip, kicked in the abdomen and struck on
the head with a stone. His injuries are
not very serious. The knife which was
sunk into his breast struck a rib, and
that fact, probably saved his life.
The effort to prevent work at the mine
was successful.

END Of STRIKE
IS NOT YET
IN SIGHT
GEN. GOBLIN, IN COMMAND OF
TROOPS IN MINE REGIONS,
SAYS STRIKE SHOWS NO
SIGNS OF SETTLEMENT.

SHENANDOAH, Pa, Aug. 26.-Much
Importance is attached to the calls Gener-
al Goblin receives from coal mine opera
tors who spend hours with the general
in going over the strike situation.
After having met number of operators.
General Goblin said yesterday that he did
not see any signs of settlement. In fact,
he states, all indications point more den-
nitely to a prolongation of the strike now
than they did when he first reached here.
He keeps in touch with the strikers. as
we'll as the operators and may be seen
daily riding over the hills with members
of his staff. Along the road he frequent
ly holds conversations with miners. all OF
whom display a friendly feeling toward
him personally.
There is no i'll feeling here against the
soldiers, and the military has become SO
popular that a movement has been set
afoot to start company in this town.
Individual operators are beginning TO
display evidence of a willingness to end
the strike If q method could be shown
them how they could make concession
to the men without stultifying them
selves. In speaking with members of the
staff at brigade headquarters, some have
within the past few days stated that If a
way could be suggested whereby they
could give in without placing themselves
in a bad light they would favor settle
ment
General Goblin is using his good offices
toward a settlement and he allows no OPP
portunity to pass when in conference with
operators to make a conservative plea for
the men on strike.

CHICAGOS AFRO-AMERICAN pOPULA
TION.
The rapid increase of the Afro-Amer-
lean population of Chicago has been
subject of considerable comment
lately. The following from a Wash
1ngton correspondent of the Record
Herald Of this city will doubtless prove
interesting to readers of The Appeal:
The Negro population of the United
States is migrating northward. From
their homes amid the cotton blossoms
and the magnolias they are seeking
homes in the northern cities. If the
present movement is long maintained
the Negro will cease to be associated
with the sunny South and Dixie land.
Washington, the capital of the nation,
according to the census of 1890. had
the distinction of sheltering the larg.
est Negro population of any city in
the United States, although at that
time it ranked fourteenth among all
cities in SIZE - +
The last census dethrones Washing
ton IN the matter of black inhabitants,
Chicago having surpassed the nations
capital in the ratio of gain, having re-
ported a growth in Negro population
in the last decade that showed gain
of 4,749 more blacks than this city.
Philadelphia, if it maintains it's pres
ent ratio Of gains, will show heavier
Negro population than Washington in
1920 and may be in 1910. New Or
leans for years had the largest Negro
population of any city in the United
States, holding the record until 1890,
when displaced by Washington.

SQUEAL AND SURROGATE
on RANDALL-S ISLAND

Fifteen hundred chickens and about two hun
dred hogs were suffocated or burned TO death
last night in a fire just before 10 o'clock in the
city's hennery. on RandalTs Island. The fire
had gained d good start when it was discovered
by one Of the watchmen. The flames lighted
up the grounds of the House of Refuge about
two city blocks east of the henhouse. and of the
Founding Asylum. about equal distance
west. There was excitement in those two build
ings. and Warden Sage Of the House OF Refuge
sounded the fire call through the building. The
seven hundred boy inmates assembled and went
through their fire drill In the Founding Asy-
Ium Miss Dunphy, the superintendent, sent or
derlies and nurses through the building allay-
ing the fears of the two hundred and fifty chill
dren there.
The city's hennery is a big two story frame
building, about 80 by 100 feet, and is an old
structure. Adjoining it stood another outbuild-
ing and sheds. in which were over two hun

an unknown cause.
The men OF Engine Company No 40 sta

time they had the fire under control but not
before it had spread into the sheds adjoining,
in which the hogs were penned.
