STRIKER SHOT
AT MAYFIELD
JOSEPH QUINN RECEIVES A
BULLET IN THE LEG.
Gang of Workmen and Crowd of
Strikers Come In Conflict Near the
Glenwood Breaker, and a Bullet
Fired by One of the Former Strikes
Qulnn Wounded Man, It Is
Claimed, Was Not in the Crowd.
Workmen Are Arrested by Sheriff
Schadt and Held for Court.
In a conflict between Eric company
workmen and a eiowri of strikers at
.Muyllold, lute Saturday night, Joseph
Qulnn, aged 21, wns shot through tho
cnlf of the left leg by one of the work
men. The fracas' occurred near the Glen
wood breaker at 11 o'clock. The shift
was being changed and as five work
men who were about to go on duty were
approaching tho breaker they encount
ered a crowd of young men.
Tho strikers say they whistled at the
workmen nnd that tho latter began
firing nt them. Tho workmen say they
were attacked with stones and only
fired when their assailants were closing
In on them.
After Qulnn was shot tho workmen
got to the breaker without further
molestation. Tho chief of police went
nfter them, but Superintendent Gal
lagher refused to let him have entrance
to the breuker, fearing If he took the
men out ho would not be able to pro
tect them from violence. Sheriff Schadt
was sent for nnd went to the scene, be
fore daybreak. The five men whom the
strikers allege comprised the "shift"
who did tho shooting were turned over
to tho sheriff and taken to this city.
They are Edward Kane, Charles Kane,
Edward Shopland, Frank Dohrer and
Michael Kearney.
GIVEN A HEARING.
Yesterday they were taken back to
Mayfleld for a hearing before 'Sauire
MeGovern. Joseph O'Brien and Hon.
C. P. O'Malley appeared for tho de
fendants, and Hon. P. E. Timlin for the
prosecution. General Manager W. A.
May, of the Erie's coal department, and
Superintendent W. W. Inglis, of the
Hillside Coal and Iron company, were
also present.
Eight witnesses for tho prosecution
were heard and all agreed that tho only
provocation for the shooting was some
whistling on the part of a few young
men who passed the workmen out, as
they, the young men, were on their way
home.
The defendants were required to give
bail in the sum of $500 each for their
appearance at court. General Manager
May became their bondsman.
Qulnn, according to all tho stories,
was not in the crowd which the work
men encountered, but was shot just
after leaving Langan's barber shop,
which Is on Main street, across from
where tho conflict occurred.
Qulnn is at the Emergency hospital,
Carbondale. The doctors say his w ound
is not serious. Unless blood poisoning
sots In he will be able to be around in
a week or so.
The point at which the shooting oc
curred is midway between the breaker
and tho pump house. The two are con
nected by a narrow-guago railroad
which crosses Main street. The work
men were going- along this railroad, a
short distance beyond tho street, when
the trouble occurred.
On several occasions recently the
rails of this road have been torn up
during the night.
DYNAMITE USED.
Late Friday night, dynamite was ex
ploded within the stockade of the Will
iam" A. colliery, at Lackawanna. The
explosion occurred close to the build
ing in which the coal and Iron police
and imported workmen are housed, but
did no damage. Tho company officials
aro of tho belief that tho dynamite was
thrown over tho stockade by strikers,
with the Intention of blowing up the
building. The strikers say the coal and
Iron police exploded the dynamite them
selves, for the purpose of causing the
company to continue them in their easy
employment,
Tho frequent arrests of strikers for
various violations of the law has led
the district executive board of the
United Mine Workers to appropriate
money for tho hiring of lawyers to look
after tho defendants.
Tho washery connected with the Hill
man colliery, at AVIlkes-Barre, recently
purchased by Kearney & Co., of this
city, bus been started up.
Tho Engineering and Mining Journal
of Saturday, in Its review of the an-
thraclto coal trade, says:
Tho strll'.o drags Its slow length along,
hut indications multiply that its end is
tie.ii Ins. Tho optimistic reports sent out
by Mr. Mitchell aro to be taken with al
lowances for tho necessities of his posi
tion. Tho operators are keeping such
mines from Hooding as aro most impor
tant to them, employes aro dally going
to tho mlno supoiJntemicnts and inti
mating that they would like to return to
work, nnd a few wabhoiics In the Lacka
wanna region mo In operation. There
can bo no doubt but just ns soon as a
company fools that thcio aro enough men
ieidy to return to any mine to Insure Its
working that mlno will start. Tho trade
union sentiment is strong In tho authra
clto fields, tho fear of the stigma put
upon non-union workers is also strom?,
but gradually the lunk nnd file nmoug
tho mlno wm iters are realizing that tho
labor leaders who proolpituted tho serine
made promises that have not been ful
filled, and nnother week's idleness will
have a powerful effect. Mr. Mitchell's
plea for public sympathy Ignores the do
mands put foiward by tho Shumokln and
Hazletou conventions and, besides, has
apparently como too lato to have much
effect.
TRADE IS LIGHT,
Trade all over tho country is vary light.
Tho producing companies have very lit
tle coal to sell, nnd this Is still doled nut
In bmall quantities to such of their regu
lar customers as aro in greatest need. A
considerable tonuaga Is in the hand? of
jobbers, lotallvis and speculators. Soma
of this Is changing hands at II above tho
pi Ices paid for It; soma Is held h' con
servative concerns who refuse to tako ad
vnutugQ of the market, and mo supplying
tegular customers at about regular prices.
At the head of tho lakes docks nro
about cleaned up, only odd lots remain
ing. In Chicago teriltory trade is dull.
Thoro mo said to bo over 2.'.0O0O tons t it
tho hands of bhlppors nnd large dealers
In Chicago and suburbs. Tho largo com
panies have not advanced prices, and
aro not trying to soil coal. Tho publlo
Is pot ordering, perhaps becauso It ho
lleves prices aro high.
Along tho lower lukcs and In all-rail
trado the dealers In the small towns und
villages, who have not yet learned the Im
portance of ordering coal early In April,
aro In greater need than those In cities.
Foituuatoly, wood Is largely used for fuel
In village? nnd country districts durlns
summer, nnd tho discomfort caused by
short supplies of anthracite- is not nearly
as great us It might be. In Cunudluu ter
ritory the supplies of anthracite nro very
scant. The strike will doubtlcM lend to
larger shipments of soft coal from Nova
Scotia to Quebec and Eastern Ontittlo,
nnd permanently Injuro tho Cntmdlau
mnrkct for American nnthrncitc. Along
tho Atlantic ttcuhnard the situation shows
llltlo chaneo from last week.
Now York harbor fn tho speculative
center, nnd, owing to tho exigencies of
tho clovnted railroad nnd of other con
cerns having suits for violations of the
smoke ordinance on bnnd, Rome coal bns
changed hands at fancy prices. Over rt
has been paid for pea coal, and a snlo of
a small lot of broken to tho olov.ited
lallroad Is reported at $9 per ton. Tho
regular retail price for egg, stove nnd
chestnut li stilt nominally $7.00. Undoubt
edly tho tnnnago held by dealers and
others In and about New York Is larger
than linn been reported, but tho supply In
first bands Is small. At least ono largo
company, however, Is stilt supplying somo
of Its old customeis with coal nt tho reg
ular June price, $l.:o f. o. b. New York
harbor shipping porls for egg, slovo and
chestnut sizes of free-burning whllo nsh,
At Boston nnd other cities beyond Cape
Cod tho bituminous situation Is of chlof
importance.
Tho supplies of nnthraclto for domestic
purpose nro largo enough to Inst somo
time. At Philadelphia, llkowlse, tho sup
ply of bituminous is a. more pressing mat
ter than tho lack of anthracite.
ACCUSED OP BURGLARY.
Firemen Arrest Charles Kuhlman in
Ablngton Dairy Company's Of
fice Leaps from Window.
Charles Kuhlman, of this city, was
arraigned before Magistrate W. S. Mil
lar yesterday morning and held in
$1,000 ball on tho charge of burglary,
preferred by Superintendent of Police
Ij. B. Day. Kuhlman was arrested in
tho Ablngton Dairy company's office,
on Linden street, early yesterdny
morning by several members of the
Crystal Hose company, and it Is be
lieved that he was attempting to rifle
tho cash register.
The arrest was made early yesterday
morning. The company had just re
turned from attending the fire at Volk
nandt's barber shop, and were told by
a man they mot that there was some
one In the dairy. The place was dark
ened, and on listening tho firemen
heard footsteps.
Captain Charles Tropp, Carl Gunster,
Fred Hay and others surrounded the
place, armed with improvised weapons,
and broko in the door. They found the
register moved to the back of the
room, and a man crouching In one cor
ner. When he saw tho firemen enter,
he made a-sudden rush for the win
dow leading Into tho court behind the
building, and dove out of It, taking a
section of the window sash with him.
It was only to encounter a fireman,
armed with a pitchfork, on the other
side, howv-er. Kuhlman plead drunk
enness in police court yesterday, and
declared that the door being open, he
had dropped into tho store to sleep
there during tho night.
