Hazle,on. Pa tSpeciaD 1.-The most
turbulent scene that has occurred during
the anthracite strike in this vicinity took
place between the hours OF ; and 7
O'Clock a. IN. Rumors were current for
a week that an attempt would be made
to open the Cranberry and No. 20 col
lieries Both are practically in the heart
OF the city.
About midnight strikers began TO
gather on the streets. and al O'Clock
a m 5000 miners had formed Gordon
about both the Cranberry and No. 40
colliery yards. This demonstration either
forestalled the attempt to open or the
Tumors that operations would be COM
menced were false. for only few nom
unionists, about 20 i'll all, appeared at
the mines.
These men were set upon by the
strikers. were beaten with clubs and
driven back A number OF them were
kidnapped by strikers, and their pres
ent whereabouts are unknown. The
most serious feature OF The demonstra-
tion occurred when August Scheuch. a
foreman. while attempting TO rescue his
son from the mob, was seized. stabbed,
beaten to the ground and stamped up
on by unknown parties. Scheuch was
taken TO the Hazleton Hospital. where
he now lies in a serious condition. The
physicians there discovered internal in
juries which, they think. will cause
the foreman's death
The mob would have killed him had
il not been for the timely interference
OF party OF citizens. who caught the
wounded man up from the ground and
ran with him to a place OF safety. 1t is
believed tina: several OF the non-union-
lists who were kidnapped are also badly
hurt. No shots were fired The strik-
ers used clubs and sticks rs weapons.
