NO CHANGE IN
THE SITUATION
MINERS' STRIKE DEVOID OF
NEW DEVELOPMENTS.
A Few More Fliefncn Join the Ranks
of the Strikers, but Quite as Mimy
Who Wore Already on Strike Re
turn to WorkDistrict President
Nicholls Claims That Ninety Per
Cent, of the Men Are Out Coal
Companies Say the Mines Are Not
in Danger.
Yesterday saw no local developments
of note In the coal strike sltuntlon and
there wns a contlmmnce of the quiet
nnd order which hns thus far charac
terized the conflict lr this region.
The strikers succcded In lnduchiB a
number of men to join their rnnkn, by
workhiR on them at their homes and In
one Instance by marching' In ti body to
whfcrc they were employed.
This latter Incident occurred nt the
"Notch" yesterday morning. T. H.
Howe nnd small company of Investors
purchased a culm dump at the Notch
to make practical tests of the efficiency
of the Howe patent sand drier as a
culm cleaner. Only a few men wore
employed In its operation. The product
was sold to farmers returning from
Scranton to the Clark's Summit region.
A body of strikers marched to the
place yesterday morning and called on
the men to quit work. After some par
leying the men quit.
Kenrney & Co. wore operating, a dry
culm cleaner at Dunmore, employing
about a dozen hands. Yesterday they
failed to appear for work. The strikers
had waited on them at their homes and
sucpeded In getting them to remain
away from work.
TEN MORE QUIT.
Ted. firemen, representing .the whole
force at the Cayuga and Brisbin col
lieries of the Delaware, Lackawanna
and Western company, joined the ranks
of the strikers yesterday. Their places
were filled temporarily by bosses and
other salaried employes. Today, accord
ing to Superintendent Phillips, these
-latter will be relieved by regular flre--men
who' went on strike, but have re--turned
to work. Eighteen men who
went on strike Monday arc to go back
to work today, Mr. Phillips says.
The report that the firemen at the
Storrs colliery were to quit work yes
terday, proved to be unfounded.
- District President Nicholls, of the
United Mine Workers, stated yesterday
that there arc 1.8S9 engineers, firemen
nnd pumprunners in his district and
that fully ninety per cent, of them nre
on strike.
GAVE NO FIGURES.
None of the coal company superin
tendents could give any figures, but
each .claimed that his particular com
pany was not suffering for want of men.
They declare that not a single mine in
this region is even threatened with
being flooded.
ThcDelawarej.La.ckawannaand-West-ern
'company operated Its Diamond
washery yesterday. The different wash
cries will be operated on their turn, so
as to ,keep up the full supply for the
various collieries.
There has been no disturbances as yet
reported In this region. Here 'and there
in Isolated communities men going to
and coming from work nre hooted and
threatened, but no one attempts any
violent molestation.
Upwards of two hundred mine work
ers, mostly pump-runners, firemen and
engineers, held a meeting In Jayne's
hall, on Jackson street, last evening,
where they were addressed by District
President Thomas D. Nicholls.
The purpose of the meeting was to
solidify the men now out on strike,
and devise ways and means to obtain
reinforcements from nmong the men
who are still at work In and around
the mines. Reports were received from
the various collieries, nnd all seemed
encouraged from the outlook.
PLANS DISCUSSED.
Plans were dlbcussed to keep the
men together, and to secure others lo
join them. An early adjournment
was made, for Hie purpose of calling
another meeting next Monday after
noon In St. David's hall, if the place
can be secured.
About 2.". of the men held another
meeting afterwards at 110 South Main
avenue, and discussed the advisability
of returning to work. There was a
division of sentiment among them, but
no ngreement was reached. It is pon
tile that a few of them will return 'to
work today. Some of the Delawure,
Lackawanna and Western superin
tendents assert that full crews are nt
work at a number of the mines.
