MINE STRIKE ON
IN PITTSBURG REGION
Employes In a Number of Bituminous
Alines Abandon Work.
MARK IIANNA'S MINES ARE GOING
The Chief Center oflMsnircctloii Ap
ponrs to lie Anions the Jlivcr
Miners, but Reports ns to tho Pro.
cress of tho Strike Aro Conflicting
nnd n Dny or Tu o Will lie Itciiulrcd
to straighten Them Oat.
The strike order of the national ex
ecutive hoard of tho United Mine
"Workers of America was obeyed by
from 10,000 to 15,000 of tho 21,000 miners
In the Pittsburg district today. The
great struggle Is now on In earnest
nnd tho developments of the next few
days will determine the-success or fail
ure of the fight for a uniform mining
rate. Pittsburg Is the pivotal point In
the fle states engaged In the contest
nnd the success of the local olllclals In
their efforts to secure a general sus
pension In this district will hac an
Important bearing on tho outcome of
tho movement.
While It Is estimated that at least
two-thirds of tho miners have thrown
. down their plrks, enough men are still
at work, however, to seriously lnVpalr
the chances unless they can ultimately
be brought out. This, President Do-
lan confidently claims can be done. The
operators on the other hand are In no
wise disconcerted and ussert that the
strike cannot succeed.
The first break in the operators'
ranks was made this afternoon by J.
W. Stcen, of tho O. I. C. mine, at Itoss
ville. The diggers refused to work and
the mine was closed down, but a notice
was posted that after today the 6b cent
rate would be paid. It Is not likely that
the officials, will allow the men to work
until a majority of the operators hao
agreed to the minors' demands.
Pittsburg, July G The strike of coal
mlneis Is on In the Pittsburg district,
but reports ns to Its extent are so
conflicting and meagie that It Is diffi
cult to tell how many i expended to
the strike order The mlneis' olllclals
express themselves ns confident that
the order had been generally obeyed
and that all the dlggeis would be out
In a few da3 The reports received
bay tbot all the mines on the Wheel
ing division of the Pa.lmore and Ohio
rallt'oad are Idle. Among the mines
shut down are those of the Plttsbuig
and Chicago Gas Ceil cimpany, whose
men It was said would not quit work,
as they had Individual contracts. The
Osceola mines are also Idle, as are
also those at Shiners.
In the Pan Handlo district, tho
Champion mine Is Idle. The only re
port received of mines that are work
ing in that district are from the Pan
Handle mine of M. A. Hanna & Co,
and Beadllng Brothers. All the
Hankesvllle mines are Idl and but six
ty men aro at work In the Jumbo
mines.
IU 10R MINERS IDLE.
The most encouraging reports for the
strikers comes from the liver mines
and It can be stated that fully six
thousand river diggers ara idle. But
few mines an in op"ratlon and the In
dications ure thit by Thuiiday every
mire will be shut down, us the miners
are determined In thtlr demands.
The operators admit that tho mines
s on the Wheeling division are idle, but
s..y It Is due to the fact that this was
a Slav holiday and that the men will
be at work tomoirou.
A strors effort was made to bring
out the men at the New York nnd
Cleveland Gas Oal company's mines
Turtle Creek, Plum Cteek and San-
Cieck, but It was not successful, ns
Vhe men went to work as usual and
r:iy they will not Join In the movement.
ltEFUSHD TO STRIKE.
A despatch from AVheellng, W. "Va.,
sajs that the men at tho Scnlck mines
on the Baltlmoie and Ohio railroad In
Ohio are now at work at the advance.
The three thousand miners on the
Cleveland, I-orolne and AVheellng rail
road voted 2 to 1 again Jt a rtrlke and
arc at work as usual.
According to estimates of the miners'
officials, sixty-two railroad mines are
Idle and twenty-six aro still in opera

operators will claim a mine to he In

AVllkes-TJarre, July (1 An Interest
ing story comes from Plymouth. Last
Tuesday Mrs. Mlchnel O. Marra, of
"Welsh Hill, discovered that she had
been robbed of $300 which, amount she
a few days previously had drawn from

ing previous to her discovery of the
theft, Mrs. Alice Richardson, a middle
aged woman who had worked for Mrs.
Marra, left the house saying she was
going to visit her sister-in-law who
lives In Central Plymouth. Mrs. Mar
ra had full confidence In Mrs. Richard
son and suspected nothing until Tues
day when sho had occasion to unlock
the bureau drawer w herein she had put
the $300 for safe-keeping. Sho svas of
comse, astonished to discover that the
money was gone, and, us no one but
herself and Mis. Richardson had known
that the sum .iad been placed there,
the nt once felt sure that her servant

quiet and ofllcors wre placed on the
case.
On tho evening that Mrs. Richardson

named James Kelly. Nohodv since saw
cither until this morning whm Kelly
arrived in Plymouth. He was Imme
diately arrested and ,taken before

falo. After a short stay In that city
they came to Tow anda, where they reg
istered at a hotel as Mr. nnd Mrs.
James Jones. Kelly left her at Towan
da last evening. 'Squire Honeywell,
nfter hearing Kelly's story, sent a tele
gram to the Towanda authorities, with
a description of Mrs. Richardson. He
alo tel'praghed to the police he-xd-ouarlets,
this city, to have an olllcer
at the Valley station to meet the 12.47

and a woman answering Mrs. Rlchaid
son's description was arrested when
she alighted from the train. She was
taken to Plymouth where she will be
given a hearing. Kelly told the 'squire
tl at Mrs. Richardson had plenty of
money, but she did not tell how or
where she procured it.

BICYCLE CHAT.
Bicycle Jewelry Is becoming popular
almost everywhere, and many pretty
designs nre shown. One piece that at
tracts a good deal of Interest Is the
blcjcle watch chatelaine. The watch Is
buspended from a clasp by a couple of
dainty enameled handle bars, and the
watch Itself fiequently has the shape
and appearance of a fairy bicycle.
Bicycle clocks are frequently seen on
the dressing tables of enthusiastic
wheelwomen, and the bicycle paper
weights are found on the business
desks of not a few wheelwomen.
Ivory toilet sets ate made nowadays
with silver blcvcle wheels on the back
of each piece, in place of customary
monograms. Young ladles frequently
have their stationery stamped now w 1th
their cj cling club colors. The most
fetching thing of all, though, Is the
bicycle wheel link engagement bracelet.
This is made of a series of tiny bicycle
wheels, linked together with precious
stones and clasped with a miniature
lantern, of which the light Is a glisten.
Ing gem. "Wheels In bright color ena
mel ato used for link cuff buttons,
while entire bicycles In miniature are
used as "stick" pins and for the decora
tion of neckw ear.
The bicycle has probably done more
to develop tho mechanical genius of th
pecple of today than any other agency.
With the old wheel, the ordinary, while
a repair kit was cairled, It was seldom
needed, for the whole- machine Was
Imllt for wear, weighing two and three
times as much ns the modern safety,
and having tires almost unbreakable,
The only danger was from a loosened
tire. Later on the nnrrow tire and then
the cushion tire came In, each jequl
lng more caie, and with them cr ,10
the sprockets, chains and adjustable
saddles and handle bars that required
Fome skill to manipulate. Hut It was
with the advent of the eighteen to
twenty-one pound pneumatic that skill
was really called for, and to-day It Is
hurd to And an owner of a wheel who
Is unable to take his machine, apart,
or who does not thoroughly understand
Its make-up. Good evidence of thh
1 to bo had at any of the cycle shows,
or even In tho regular sales rooms. At
the former It Is a. common Bight to seo
a crowd atound omo new model, every
one man or woman, young or old
seemlrgly possessed of occumto knowl
edge and capable of weighing care
fully the nd vantage offered by each
particular make,
A Pittsburg Inventor has Just se
cured a patent on a strip of light, tough
composition material which he claims
does away with all danger of punctur
ing tires. The strip Is Introduced In
tho double tires, and with the single
tiro It la put on the outside, Tho ma
terial Itself Is so light that It tu)ds but
little weight so the tires. Seveial
prominent Plttsliurg wheelmen have
tried the new device and pronounced
It puncture-proof.
