Much anxiety is expressed over the
curtailed meat supply at the big hotels
and fish and poultry are being used
as much as possible.
Swift & Co. succeeded today in filing
their station at Fulton market under
police protection. Several other firms
moved meat to the markets in South
Water street. President Golden of the
Transfers union expressed himself as
pleased with the progress of the strike
and predicted a victory for the organi-

United Mine Workers Call on

STRIKE is RAPIDLY EXTENDING.

Situation In Some of the Districts Is
Regarded as Very Acute and Trou-
BILE Is Feared-Armed Guards at
Mines.
Hazelton, Pa, June 2.-There has
been an almost unanimous obedience
in the Hazelton district on the part Of
the engineers and pump runners to the
strike order of the executive board Of
the United Mine Workers. At the Of
fees Of some of the companies whose
operations are in isolated portions of
the districts the officials when called
up by telephone said they did not
know how many of their men had quit.
The mine workers have not yet re-
ceived any definite figures at their
headquarters, so a correct estimate Of
the number of strikers cannot be given
until later in the day.
All the companies whose men de-
places of the strikers with non-union
men brought here from Philadelphia,
and their agents say the operation of
the pumps will not be interfered with
by reason of the strike.
Everything is quiet in the region to-
day. There will be a special meeting
of the Clerks Protective association
today to urge the merchants to offer
their sympathy and support to the
strikers. The merchants will also
meet 1t is stated that resolutions
will be adopted condemning all the
men who furnish supplies to the spe
cial officers and non-union men, hun
dreds of whom are stationed at the
colliery.
In order to avert trouble the coal
companies will keep their officers at
the mine until the strike is over. The
situation is SO acute that the presence
of these men in the city, especially at
night, is liable to be the cause of an
outbreak.
Colliery clerks who refused today
to take charge of fire or pumps were
discharged.
