KEASOXS FOR PROLONGING TEE FIGHT
irr.OM A STAFr CORRESrOKDXST.t
Scottdale, April 27. The record of
lonp strikes in the coke region has been
nroken, and this has been the hardest ficht
the operators and -wage workers have ever
had. The latter have been mactng war
acainst great odds, and it is a wonder that
they have been able to stand ont as long as
tnev have. There are numerous reasons
wlij the should nave been defeated long ere
tbls Tney ai e fisbtlcg against a falling mar
let, and should work be resumed there would
not be employment tor more than half of
them.
In many cases the mines were shut down ten
dajsormorebeloretbe striko began andvof
course the men fpent a great deal of their sav
ings before thev besan the strike. NeTer be
fore bare the operators been as well prepared
for jum such a light as this. It was a most in
opportune strike on the part of the wage-earners,
and the chances are that tney will lose it.
The operators are well organized and so far
the breaks in their ranks have been very few.
T he same may be said of the strikers, as the
large majoritv of the men who are going in to
work are imported into the region and do not
come iroin the ranks of the trikers. It is true
that some of the strikers' leaders ha e gone to
work, and thi morning another was added to
tbe list. Robert Row, ot Painter, who is said
to lead the Italians, went to work for McClure
this morning
Mill Slandins Finn.
et with all these odds, the mcu stand firm
and it looks as though they were prepared to
io so for some time to come. They claim they
have plenty of money and the stories circu
lated to the conirary are wronc and meant to
co them harm That the credit o.f the orcani
2 mon is good, is evidenced by the fact that
atoir two weeks ago. when money was short,
ver . OcO in orders were recoemzed by vari-
us dealers in the region Tnev have since
been p ! ill There is still more money to come
Si-netar Varker sas that Manager Lynch's
( in. in regard to work done last wek are
Cross! ccacceratcd. t r instance, Mr Lnch
t-.ii that 2o7 cars of coke were shipped all
week and each dav he made the claim that
r irn or fnllv 100 cars had been shipped. Mr.
locn said this morning that 155 cars had been
s-i ipned baiurdav. These stories certainly do
i ot fit together If 155 cars were shipped on
Kaiurdav the total for the week would have
r n on-iuerabl above 1157
sr-cretaM Parker sas that in all the la. C.
y irk lmipa hAS not over 300 oiens roiuirin
a! their 21 mints ot which thev claim that 13
! ivesiaiteiL lie claims that all tbeovens first
s a ted at Adelaide have died out. Increase;
ere tenoned at all tbe Frlck woiks this moru
i "ne thing is certain, the men shipped in here
a d put to work as coke drapers can't do tbe
work done by experienced men. They don't
ai erage two ovens a daj, and many can't draw
on i- Ka average coke drawer can do 3 or 4
ovens daih
Another riant Started.
One new plant started up this morning at the
r i scale ot uaqos, and Secretary Parker says
moipwil' folio. The -IVanklm works of 50
evens onued by tbe Keisler Company, began
operations to-day. Tbe proprietors say tbey
i .ive reasons for so doing, and there was no
cause for them to stand out any longer. West
overtoil owned by Overbolt & Co., made a
small start at the new scale. Tbe operators
c aim there are oier 20 men at work, but the
- nkers say that only six men went to work. A
meetin; was held there yestorday, and after
numerous votes were taken tbe majority of tbe
it en decided not to go to work, although at
I rst ihev thought it best to do so.
At attempt was made to start Dexter, owned
b J t Stauffer, but it proved : failure. It
was to have started at the new scale, and some
' h old employes had promised to be aronnd,
-tt thev didn't appear At Painter, the ln-
rease was nearly 2a men, matnlv Italians. A
.n ij increase was reported at Morewood and
h fact all over the region
lne of tbe reason, for prolonging the strike
i- be wart of confidence on botb sides: Tlin
nnera.ors have tricked tLe men and the men
Lave done likewise with the operators, ttntil It
has come to tbe point when each believes the
other to be a rascal and probably have some
grounds for their belief. If it were possible to
Testore confidence, the striko could easily be
snttled. but at present the end does not look
near There is just as much suspicion in the
anksof the men as against their employers.
Hundreds of the men have no confidence in
tueir leaders and tbe leaders have no confidence
in some of tbe men.
IVronss to Be Rlchtcd.
Mi agreement, signed under such circum.
stances, would hold neither party, as either
knows bow easy it is to break it. An operator
t.ua tbls morning that he believes tbe peop'e as
a rule to be all right, if tbey were not agitated
a a bad now rongs to work them into a passion,
bu tLeyhate both," he continued. "It is
all a mistake to say they have no wrongs, for
the ertamly have. "We have never had ranch
trouble with our men, and we are proud ot our
record, bull tbey aro expected to stand with
tbe strikers, ana we are expectod to hold out
with the operators. If the proper concessions
were made bv all parties concerned, the affair
could be easilj settled. The men took up this
st ike at the wrong time, but I am not pre
I red to sa that the can't stav out a great
! it longer 1 didn't expect them to hold out
a- long as the did Certain it Is that the iron
a d steel business wi.l not allow the coke strike
t greatlv interfere with it, as it istoo profita
ble for that. Mr. Carnegie broke the strike
once and tbe labot men are looking for him to
ao so again."
ather Lambing's address was discussed on
all sides this morning, but so far it does not
sem to have any special effect on the strike,
. rbe men seem as firm as ever. Tbe strikers
lira that it will reallj have no bad effect on
t r cause The still declare that they have
nothing to do mtb tbe Socialists, but cannot
prevent their speaking in tbe region.
To-aay was supposed to be a turning point,
but like all other supposed turning points In
t his strike, it didn't turn. The strike is still on
and it will require a big move on one side or
the other to end it, Paeeee.

Mt. Pleasant. April 27. One of the More
wood strikeis came into town this afternoon
with tbe story that Morns Ramsay had visited
bini and asked bim to go to work at the old
scale. Tbe man said that Mr. Ramsay as will
ing to hire all the old men again if they would
break away from tbe union. The men refused
to go to work until tbe officers of their assem
bly were notified and agreed to It. It is also re
ported that there was a strike among tbe black
sheep at Morewood on account of a reduction
in their wages to pay the deputies.
The latter report was also circulated concern
ing Adelaide, but Manager Lvncb denied it.
Both the reports about the Morewood plant
were denied by Bookkeeper James Hook, as
Manager Ramsay was not in the office. The
labor men declare that botb are true bills.
THE RED FLAG ABSENT.
IT WAS NOT CAEEIED IN THE
PABADE AT MT. PLEASANT.
BIO
An Organized Body of Citizens rrepared
to Tear It Down Jonaa and Delaber
Fire Off Socialistic Speeches at the
Large Crowd Present.
IFROU A STJJT COEItESrOh-DENT.3
JlT. Pleasakt, April 27. There was
no red flag in town to-day, though fully
4,000 people were here, and had the fiery
emblem of anarchy been flung to the breeze
there surely would have beeu a fight- But
Jonas and Delaber were here, and though
the former is an extremely pleasant-looking
old gentleman, he was in a baa numor an
day. Before the meeting was called
the Socialistic orator felt it his
duty to instill his teachings into
the hearts nf tbe denizens of ML Pleasant,
and in tbe office of tbe National Hotel be fired
off a section of bis speecb before It was really
ripe. Then be walked to tbe old Hitchman
orchard, near the Diamond, where nearly 1,500
men, mainly of bis persuasion, were ready to
listen to the balance of his address.
Delaber was the first speaker, and ne maue
an address as mild-mannered as anyone even in
ML Pleasant could ask. Jonas was different As
usual, he ranted about tbo monopolistic press,
at which his hearers bo led with delight, and
he then tackled Father Lambing'saddress,using
The Dispatch from which to quote stray
passages. Tbe Socialistic editor tben spoke
lor some time in German, and two or three
languages were given, in order that all the
Socialists in the crowd might hear and learn.
It requires several languages tq catch all of
tbem.
Messrs. Parker, McBryde and others followed
these gentlemen, and made addresses urging
the men to stand to the strike, and promising
victory in the end. Nothing happened all day
to mar tbe pleasure of tbe people, and tbey
spent a most enjoyable day lolling under tbe
apple trees, thinking of tbe liapoy millennium
promised, when that will be their chief occupa
tion. It is plain that the people ot the town ex
pected trouble, as an organized movement was
on hand to tear down tbe obnoxious banner
should it be carried in the parade. A prom
inent citizen was to have bad tbe honor of tear
ing itfrom the hands of the Socialist who car
ried it, at.d a hundred others were ready to de
fend him against an) body who dared to resist.
Tbe orators disclaimed any intention of carry,
ing tbe banner in tbe parade. When tbe parade
passed up Main street it was seen that the red
banner was not there.
Captain Loar ordered the guards out to salute
the flag. The guard .with its relief one ser
geant, three corporals and six men In com
mander Lieutenant Berrvbill, were lined up
in front of the armory and sainted the colors
as they were carried past. Tbe meeting closed
wltb three cheers for tbe Stars and Stripes.
Adjutant General McClelland was bere all day
and attended tbe meeting of the Socialists.
