Mr.. Corless and Mr. Oliver. OF Scranton,
ard Mr.. Phillips, of Wilkesbarre. are oil
rect from the heart of the anthracite strike
They all predict success for the miners.
They say the laboring men in the field are
standing by the strikers and will help see
them through. Mr.. Corless sat on the board
of arbitration with President Mitchell, OF
the United Mine Workers. in arbitrating
the street-car strike at Scranton last Sat
urday. Il never saw lawyer present a
case more clearly, concisely or ef1ectually
than President Mitchell said Mr.. Cor
less. when he gets through there is
little left TO discuss. The board simply
hustled the arbitra ton through and the
strike was settled in no time.
Speaking of the anthracite strike" con-
tinued Mr. Corless "the miners and peo-
pie of Pennsylvania are only waiting for
the operators to say when they Will re-
sumo work. l am confident the miners will
win. They have the best Of IL all over the
field. and this talk about a colliery start
ing here and there is rot. II generally
takes 600 10 500 men TO work a colliery
and the operators can't get that many men
TO work.
Mr.. Phillips. of Wilkesbarre. which is
the temporary headquarters Of President
Mitchell. said THE people OF Wnkesbarre
are certainly in sympathy with the miners
The Citizens Alliance that was organized
there is a secret body and has done moth
ing IL is directing its attacks solely upon
President Mitchell. No one knows who
composes it, but it is generally believed
to be the work of men interested in the
coal mines In the last two or three days
there have been two other alliances formed
one is the Workingmen's Alliance. and
believe the purpose is TO put a labor ticket
in the field for the next municipal cleo
ton The other is the Public Alliance
composed of citizens, which will direct its
efforts towards settling the strike"
