UNION ORGANIZERS
CLOSE MORE'M MINES
Win Over Workers in Nom
Union Sections Of Penn

BY the Associated Press.
PITTSBURGH, Pa, April 1.-Two
more plants of the H. c.. Frick Coke
Company were closed today by the
United Mine Workers in their cam
paign to carry the coal strike into the
Ccnnellsville region, but the impor-
tant Leisenring and Trotter plants
employing some 1000 miners and coke
workers, were in operation with what
The management termed an increased
force.
Union organizers, however. had not
abandoned the attempt to carry the:
unioniZation movement into the heart
of the region, and a, number of meet
ings were held this morning near the
Leisenring plants. and more were
scheduled for this afternoon. Mine
bosses and superiritendents were said
to be working among the Frfck men,
and were optimistic that their efforts
to keep the plants open would be sue
cessful.
! The mines closed were Colonial. No.
I. and Oiiphant. They are important
plants in ordinary times. but recently
only about $50 men have. been em-
pioyed in both. ~
Reports from other sections of Fay
cite county indicated that the union
was making progress among the
smaller operations, fifteen being down
on the Smithfield and Masontown
branch OF the Baltimore and Ohio
were down on the Fairmont branch
between Smithfield and Point Marion.
Production Cut Half.
That She strike haseaten into coal
and coke production in the Fayette
field was proved today by figures
from the Baltimore and Ohio weigh
ing stations at Connellsville, Cumber-
fand and Grafton covering the past
ten days. These figures. officials said,
showed a decrease of about SO per
cent.
But the region was by no means
tied up. : Coal shipments over the
southwest branch of the Pennsyl
vania, another important outlet. were.
on April II, 256 cars, while on April
10 they were 314, with comparative
figures for coke placed at 2St cars
and 66 cars. respectively. Shipments
from the Monongahela river district,
now almost completely closed Uy the
strike, were down to twenty cars OF

and s2 cars. respectively.
in Westmoreland county, where they
reported they had closed Edna No.
of the Hillman Coal Company. near
Adamsburg. This. they said. added
$50 men to their ranks.
First Violence Reported.
The first sign of violence in West
moreland county was reported last
night. A miners house at Seward
was partially destroyed by a bomb
yesterday morning. though no one
was hurt. At Export mass meeting
was visited by deputy sheriffs, and
in their attempt to break up the as
semblage two miners were injured.
Miners officials in Cambria county
have become indignant over alleged
abuses to miners by mine guards, and
say they will take the fight for pro-
lection into every town in the coun-
try unless civil authorities intercede.
Miners have been stopped and sub
jected to rough handling on the roads,
according to reports reaching district
President John Brophy. while in other
cases miners and their families were
allowed to visit the post office and
stores only during hours set by the
guards.

the discussion continued and finally
developed the fact that Messrs.
Knight, Hobson and Windham were
unwilling to order an election unless
petitioned to do so by at least twenty
five percent of the registered voters

be signed, as desired by the three
members by the voters of the county.
