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 thus far
today. There will be a special meeting OF
the Clerks Protective Association tonight
to urge the local merchants to offer their
sympathy and support to the strikers The
merchants will also meet. 1t is said that
resolutions will be adopted condemning all
business men who furnish supplies to the
special officers and non-union men, hun
dreds of whom are stationed at nearly
every colliery.
Ir order to avert trouble the coal COM
panies will keep their special officers at the
mines until the strike is over. The situa-
tlon 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
f1re or pumps were discharged.
Strike Leaders Gratified.
SHAMOklN, Pa, June 2.-Strikers made
no demonstration at any of the nineteen
collierfes within a radius of twelve miles
of is place today other than TO collect in
groups on public roads, endeavoring TO
learn whether pumpmen, firemen and en-
gineers would report for work. At least 10
per cent of the three classes of workmen
went on strike for the eight-hour work day.
When firemen ceased work at 4 o'clock this
morning their positions were filled by COM
P'AHS principally Sub-DOSSIS. flalneT
than take the places of strikers, a number
of sub-boSses resigned.
Strike leaders say they are highly graft
ned over the situation. Officials of coal
companies also declare they are pleased
that enough men We're found TO keep up
steam in most Of the fire rooms. 1t is the
intention of the strikers within the next
twenty-four hours to persuade men now at
work to quit, in order to make the tie-up
absolute.
No policemen guarded any of the local
coilleries today, and strikers remained
away from the mines. An official of the
Union colliery reported that strikers threw
stones at engineers at one of the operation
last night, no damage resulting. The Ship
man Coal Company, employing 357 at the
Colbert colliery, and Connell & Co, en-
ploying 494 workmen at the Enterprise coll
liery, granted firemen, pumpmen and en-
gineers the eight-hour work day. The men
are manning fire, engine and pump rooms
at those operations There are 10000 men
and boys employed in the mines in this dis
trict.

States Right to Quarantine.

The court today declared the right of a
state Of the Union to pass laws excluding
bodies Of people from going into city or
community which is quarantined. The
case In which this decision was given was
one which was brought against the Louis
lana board Of health by the owners Of the
Britannia, French steamer which
sought to land 400 Italian immigrants in
New Orleans in 1878.
The opinion of the Supreme Court was
handed down by Justice White and sus-
tained the state law the ground that
until Congress takes the quarantine power
from the states each state Is entitled to
make and enforce its own quarantine regu-
lations. Justices Harlan and Brown united
In dissenting opinion.
The court dismissed for want Of jurisdic-
ton the case of the New York Central
Railroad Company against the city of New
York, involving the right of the city to
compel the railroad company to pave and
otherwise improve Vanderbilt avenue in
that city.
The order for dismissal was due to the

DOWN PRESIDENT LOCBET

Paris Oct 22-The police commissary attached
10 the Elysee Palace says the report published in
the Figaro this morning of the alleged attempt
OF a dangerous anarchist to seek opportunity to
assassnate President LOubet is much exaggerated.
The facts are that of unbalanced mind late
on Monday evening tried to climb the railing in
front of one of the gates of the Elysee beside d
sentry box The sentry ordered him away. The
man talked incoherentIy. and finally had to be re-
moved No revolver poignard was found on him.
Another version of the affair differing from that
of the eommissary of police is as follows
The incident occurred at o'clock Monday morn
ing When. in disregard OF the sentry summons

seized the man who had attempted to climb the

teetives and cheering for anarchy. lie was

the motorman of the electric car which ran INTO
the Presidents carriage. The commissioners find
that the car was going at a reckless speed and
hold that the management of the street railway
was at fault in not establishing rules to regulate
the speed of cars at a dangerous point like that at
which the accident happened.
In their summary the commissioners say that the
grade crossing where the collision occurred is one
OF the worst Of its kind and that the Improperly
of the attempt TO pass the carriages with the car
was apparent The report says:
The motorman had good reason to believe that
the effort which he was plainly making to reach

approval Of passengers, including a prominent
