SHOT AT A SHERIFF.
Rioting Miners Make Things Lively
for Officials.

Scranton, Pa, May PA riot
broke out among striking miners at
No. IA colliery of the Pennsylvania
c. al company near Pittston today fol-
lowing an attempt of a posse of a
state police, headed by Sergeant Hen
ming to dispense a crowd of Italians
who threatened others when a work
train reached the colliery.
Sheriff Rodda of Lucerne county
hurried to the colliery and was shot
at, but escaped the bullets, though a
thrown coupling pin gave him scalp
wound. One foreigner, Peter Sura,
was so badly dubbed by state police
men that he may die.
State Trooper Jasper of Tedach was
caught under his horse, which was
feIled by blow on the head, and was
badly dubbed beroe other troopers
drove off his assailants.
The riot was finally quelled and an
other one broke out at the Even col
liery, mile away, but the rioters
there dispersed when troopers arrived.
The strike spread today to the But
tier, the Hillside and the Central col
lieries of the Pennsylvania Coal COM
pany, leaving only the Barnum mine
of that company in the Pittston dis
trict at work. Already 10000 mine
workers are involved, the trouble be-
ginning several days ago with the men
striking at No. colliery because of
alleged excessive dockage and short
weighing. The board of Cancellation
of the United Mine Workers at a ses-
sion yesterday disapproved the strike.

This looks both favorable and un-
favorable and from the sentiment of
the city commissioners, it appears that
it is better to ask for a universal plan
than to demand it. With the hearty
cooperation of every man. woman
and child in Topeka, the commission
ers will approach the street railway
company and ask for this concession.
