Expect Long Visit

WASHINGTON, Pa, July 24.-
Col. E. j.. Stackpole, Jr-, COM
manding the Pennsylvania Caval-
ry in the coal strike region, today
ordered troops sent to Charlerol,
an i'm port tant mining center on the
Monongahela RiYer, and 44other
troops sent to Burgettstown,, an
equally important point on the
Panhandle division of the Penn
sylvania Railroad in the western
part OF the county.
Other posts will be established
as the necessity for them arises,
it was stated. A number of mines.
listed for early opening are locat-
ed where they can be easily
reach ed from the new stations.
Colonel Stackpole. who has
spent several days in Washington
County. left for Cambria. Somer-
set and Indiana counties. where
other troops Of his command are
stationed.
while small forces of workmen
are said to be cleaning up a num-
Der Of mines in the region prep
aratory to operation, there was no
general move today to resume the
hoisting of coal from the pits.
The troops, with the exception
of patrol detachments which are
covering a radius of about ten
miles from Cokeburg. Colonel
.Stackpole's headquarters. were
busy today preparing for what
they believed would be a long
stay.
Adjutant General Beary and
Brigadier General Shannon were
expected here before nighS fall
and every effort was being made
to put5camp in order before they
arrived. Pup tents were slowed
away and the regulati on canvass,
which:arrWedS last nfght,rwas rap
idly being put to positi on. There
was alreport in camp that before
/ the week was over the cavalry
I men would be wearing TIN hats,
and numbers OF them would be
armed with riot guns. Speculation
as to what mines were to be re-
opened and the points at which
the troops might find early activ-
fty attracted little interest among
the soldiers. To all inquiries they
stressed the fact that while they
might sympathize with one side
or the other in the Industrial con-
troversy, officially they had no
particular interest and were only
here to maintain order.
Colonel Stackpole will keep In
close touch with the troops in
Cambria, Indiana and Somerset
counties by a direct wire which
was cut into headquarters today.
Reports received from Sheriff OF
to Luelen and Captain McLaugh-
lin, commanding the state troops
were that the entire region was
quiet.
