RIOTS FOLLOW A
COAL MINE STRIKE
and About Two Hundred of the Men
Quit Work.
BY Associated Press

Moundsville. w. Va, April 10.-Riot-
ing which started at the Mound City
coal mine near here last night was
resumed today. Two men were in
tured in the fighting last night and
seven others are reported to be hurt
today.
The trouble started when strikers
and their sympathizers assembled at
the mine shaft and attacked forty
miners who refused to Join in the
strike. When officers arrived they
were forced to use their clubs before
the men could come out of the mine.
Many cuts and bruises were suffered
by both loyal miners and strikers.
Today a mob Of 500 strikers and
their sympathizers tried to prevent the
superintendent of the mine, /. w.
Brown, from entering the Offices of the
company. Sheriff Alley and a posse
succeeded in dispensing the mob, but
not before the sheriff had threatened
to shoot into the crowd. More trouble
Is feared
The strike was declared yesterday
following the refusal of the operators
to recognize the union. Two hundred
men are affected.
