MINERS COMMEMORATE
END OF THE STRIKE
Thousands March Through Scranton Streets
in Honor of the Man Who Led the
Successful Strike Last Fall Mass
Meeting at the Old Armory.
.Mllchell Hay, the anlnversary of tho
resumption of work by the miners af
ter their victorious strike of last fall,
was celebrated hero yesterday with
one of the hlfrRcst labor demonstra
tions tho city has ever known. Korty
two Jllno "Workers' unions, number
in"; between 10,000 and 1L',000 men,
from the collieries between .Tesstlp and
Unryea, headed by tho strlklnpr street
car men, and accompanied by two
score of musical organizations, par
aded the central city streets before
the view of thousands of checrltiK
spectators. Afterwards, a mass meet
ing was held at the old armory, where
speeches were made by prominent la
bor leaders and others.
Although the big army of men com
posing the parade wore no uniform or
Insignia other than the green paste
board working card, pinned to each
man's coat lapel, it was by no means
an uninteresting procession, While
it lacked picturesque or novel feat
ures, it was far from wanting inter
esting suggestion. It told ot a' boily
of stalwart, earnest men, bound to
gether by solemn oath, to work one
with the other for their common weal
and against any encroachment on
their rights, and It bespoke a mighty
power for good or ill, standing ready
and willing to do or die at the call of
those whom they have chosen to lead
them.
DEVOTION TO LEADER.
The devotion of the miners to their
organization and to their leader, who
was being specially honored yester
day, was attested by the fact that
many of them walked from places two
hours distant, as a parade moves, to
be on hand at the celebration. A full
thousand men trudged up from Jli
nooka and Greenwood: 2,r,00 from
North Scranton and I'rlceburg; -',000
from Ounmore, and several hundred
from Taylor, the Pyno. the Continen
tal, Keyset- Valley and other distant
suburbs. Only those from the mini
distant places deigned to ride. Old
Forge men came on a special train on
tile Lackawanna and the np-the-v.il-ley
locals had special cars on the
Delaware and Hudson trains.
There were no trolley cars running,
but If there were they would not have
caused the crowds in Scranltin to
swell to any considetable extent. The
people who came from outside to par
ticipate iu or view the celebration
are, just at present alllictcd with a
peculiar sort of hysteria, which medi
cal science lias given the name,
"Fraldothecars."
THE PARADE.
The various divisions of the parade
began forming shortly after 1 o'clock
on JIulberry street, Wyoming avenue,
Washington avenue, Peirn avenue and
Vine street, and nt 1."0 o'clock the
word was given to start. The start
was made at tb" corner of .Mulberry
st root and Wyoming avenue, and from
there they moved along to Liuueii
street, to Washington avenue, to
Spruce street, to Wyoming avenue, to
Lackawanna avenue, across the bridge,
and countermarched up Lackawanna
avenue to Adams avenue, and to the
armory, where- the mass meeting was
held.
It is conservatively estimated that
there was over 10,000 men and boys iu
line, nnd one hour and seven minutes'
actual time was consumed in passing
a given point. All along the line of
march, thousands of people watched
tho parade, and applauded the men as
they gallantly marched along, the
street car men being singled .out for
tho most generous applause.
Every man and boy iu line either
had a working card, a picture of John
Mitchell or a tag, or all three, in Ills
hat or on his coat lapel, .the first desig
nating the local union to which they
were attached, the second the olllclal
placard of the day, and the third bear
lug the words: "I walk. Do you walk'.'"
Throughout the line many banners
were in evidence, bearing the follow
ing sentences:
"John Mitchell, Our Friend," "We
Want Inspection of Working Cards,"
"Union Forever," "We Are Going to
Win, If Von AVnlk." "Scranton Cars
.Must Be Manned by Scranton Men;
No Imports," "We Want Recognition,"
"All Scabs Must Go," "We Want
Working Cards Examined," "If You
Don't Settle the Strike We Will Never
Ride," "Eight Hours a Day, More
Pay," "We Want Recognition April
1," nnd many other such expressions,
