THE NEWS AT wILKEsBARRE.
The Miners Say 1t is Now Up to the
Mine Owners.

Mine Owners.
Wilkesbarre, Pa, Oct. THE news
of the calling out of the entire ma
tional guard of Pennsylvania did not
become generally known throughout
this region until Tuesday morning,
the news having been received too late
Monday night for general circulation.
II was received in a matter-of-fact
way, and did not cause any commo-
tion or much surprise. The entire
Wyoming valley, of which Wilkes
barre is the center, is extremely quiet.
The miners recognize the fact that
great pressure was brought to bear
on Gov. Stone to send his entire mil
itary force into the coal fields, and
now that he has done it, the question
of coal or no coal this winter, they
argue, is "up to the mine owners"
The presidents of the coal-carrying
railroads told President Roosevelt,
last Friday, that with military pro-
lection they can satisfy the public
demand for coal. The unionists feel
confident the operators can not make
good their promise without cOnced-
ing something to the men. President
Mitchell's remark to press corre-
spondent, Monday night, that the
military power of the United States
could not make the men go to work
if they did not want to, was repeated
by every leader or miner spoken to.
They pointed to the statements made
by different authorities that since the
troops came into the Wyoming re-
gion the coal production has not in
creased and very few additional men
have returned to work.

Buffalo, N. Y, Oct. President
John Mitchell and his party and the
committee appointed by the National

COURT VAULTS BLOWN OPEN,

! Rutherfordton. y. c., Nov. l6.-NeW IS
has been received here that the vaults
in the Columbus courthouse, in Polk
county. were blown open early Fri
dav morniu.. but was not discovered
by the clerk of the court, who was
out of town at the time, until Satur-
day morning. The large doors, which
the company who built them is said to
have offered $1,000 to the per
son or persons entering within ten
hours were literally iron to pieces.
Nothing has been missed as yet
except $3.50 worth of stamps. No
money was kept in the vault, and for
what reason the thief entered is a
question which is pulling the Off
cials.
A report was current that it was
Republican scheme to destroy their
record, as the Democrats go into office
in that county on Dec. l. This report
is said to be false, and is denounced
by the present officials, who say no
books or records of any kind have been
removed. Officers are at work on the
case, and believe they will get some
clew to the affair in few days.
