THE VETERANS BAZAAR
OPENED BY GOVERNOR ROB- ERTS AND STAFF LAST NIGHT.

The State Armory Transformed Into a
 Fairy Camp GrOund--Many Interest-
 ing and Novel Features to be Seen--
 Object is Most Worthy One and
 Ought to be We'll Patronized--WiII
 Continue Throughout the Week.
 In blaze of military glory and an outburst of naval patriotism to the strains of Hail to the Chief by the Second Regiment band and the firing of the governors salute of seventeen guns from the miniature battleship Connecticut the bazaar of the Senior and Junior veterans was successfully opened at the state armory on Meadow street by His Excellency Governor Rob- erts last night. The object of the ba- zaar is very worthy one and the pro- eeeds will be devoted to the fund for the relief of members who may require it and also to augment the funeral fund. For these purposes the post has already spent upwards of $1SOOO dur ing it's history.
 The opening ceremony was at S:S0. The bugle sounded the call to arms and the opening parade was formed and marched to the platform. Fx- Mayor Hendrick, chairman of the gen eral committee, escorted Governor Rob- erts, who was accompanied by his staff respondent in all their military uni- forms and embellishments. I.ieuten ant Governor Rollin s. Woodruff was also present; General E. s. Greeley, Mayor Studley, Captain William s. Wells, officers of the Second regiment, officers of the naval battalion and off, cers and comrades of the c. A. R.
 Ex-Mayor Hendrick in few appro- priate words introduced Governor Rob. erts, who was received with hearty ap- plause. Governor Roberts congratulat- ed the committee having the affair in charge. He spoke of the heroic part which the veterans played in the civil war, and said 1t was to them that the people were indebted for the freedom they now enjoy And it was to their heroic and undaunted efforts that the four flags in the center of the dome which represented the north and the south, the east and the west, floated in token of united nation. He wished the bazaar every measure of success ExJMayor Hendrick then declared the bazaar open for business. The gover- nor and his staff next proceeded to the battleship Connecticut" and took up a position on the bridge, from which they viewed the affair, while here the governors salute of seventeen guns were fired from the deck of the ship.
 The general appearance of the ar- mory last night when let up was very pretty and Brother John McCarthy who was responsible for the artistic layout, was highly complimented by those who were aware of this fact. The

THREE MINERS KILLED
 BY DEPUTIES IN RIOT
BOY FATALLY WOUNDED AND 4 MINING ENGINEER
 SERIOUSLY.

Strikers Had Been Celebrating East ,r
 Monday and Indulging in Liquor
 Argument Leads to Fight in Front of
 Jail When Number of Arrests
 Are Made--Discrimination Charged
 Against Union Men--MOb Forms to
 Prevent Them Being Locked Up and
 is Fired UpOn-AppeaI for Troops.
 JohnstoWn, Pa., April 16.-Three men have been shot dead, a boy fatally wounded and mining engineer, Eu- gene Delaney, taken to the hospital in a serious condition as a result of a riot at Wipber among the striking coal miners tonight. The place is in a state of terror, Sheriff Begley has been sum- moned and an appeal has been made to Governor Pennypacker for troops. There are several others of the rioters who have sustained slight injuries. The dead men and most of the injured are foreigners and their names cannot be obtained. The bodies are lying in the street tonight where they fell the strikers refusing to allow the under takers to remove them.
 The foreign element have been cele- brating Easter Monday in the mining section, and much liquor has been used. The streets have been thronged all day with a boisterous crowd, but no sign of trouble appeared until tonight. A body of strikers were assembled in front of the Winber jail discussing the mass meeting that had been held during the afternoon, and which had been address, ed by three Catholic priests. The dis cussion grew into argument and soon there was free-for-all fight. Depu- ties that had been sworn in when the strike in the coal mines was first in- augurated made their appearance and a number of arrests were made. All of the arrested men were union men and their colleagues set up a cry that they were being discriminated against and were imposed upon.
 The arrested men were marched to the lookup door, but there a mob had formed and an attempt was made to take the men from the officers. Forced back from the jail door, the mob grow Ing more violent every minute, threat ened the deputies until the officers fir ed.
 The mob hesitated, apparently not ex- pecting the deputies would resort to firearms. When the smoke had cleared away and the victims of the shots were viewed by the crowd there were cries of anger and soon miners that were armed returned the shots of the depu- ties. The firing ceased almost as soon fAs 1t began, however and the crowd filed away from the jail.
 : A state of terror exists tonight be- cause of the prevalence of liquor and inc angered miners. There is much dy- nanite stored here, and it is feared the strikers will resort to the explosive in revenge.
 Late tonight the bodies of the men who had been shot were removed from the streets where they had fallen to an undertakers establishment. Charles Fister. the twelve year old boy who was wounded died at the hospital. Word was also received from Somer- set that Sheriff Begley had started for Winber to take charge of the situation.

THE PROSPECT SEEMS OMNIBUS

1t is difficult to forecast at this
time what the result of the Taft
Bacon mission to Cuba will be.
One day we are told that armed
Intervention by American govern
ment is inevitable and necessary
to restore order; and on the next
day we hear that the prospects for
an amicable adjustment are en-
couraging. There seems to be little
room to doubt that the Sugar and
Tobacco trusts have been busily
at work promoting disorder for the
purpose of making intervention
necessary, and that these corpora
lions are largely responsible fol
the present disturbed conditions
There is well defined suspicion
also that the growing sentiment OF

the people against the trusts
and in favor of tariff revision has
alarmed the Republican leaders
and led them to seek some pretext
for diverting the public mind from
these important reforms. The
state of preparedness of the army
and navy would appear to give
ground for such suspicion; hence
we may not be surprised should a
coup d'etat occur at any time, as
was the case in Panama.
