GENERAL STRIKE
IS NOT LIKELY
OPINION EXPRESSED BY PRESI
DENT NICHOLLS.
Instead of Ordering a General Strike
the Convention Is Likely to De
voto Its' Attention to Wny3 nnd
Means of Supporting tho Present
Strike President Nicholls Issues
a Warning to the Strikers Serious
Eire at Richmond Colllory Made
More Serious by the Strike.
District President T. D. Nicholls, of
the United Mine Workers, as much as
admitted, Saturday, that there v, ould
he no general strike ordered by the
national convention, which meets In
Indianapolis next Thursday.
In ni) Interview, Mr. Nicholls strong
ly intimated that tho convention would
not declare for a general, strike, but
that rather It would vote to support
the anthracite miners' strike by liber
ality In a financial way.
Mr. Nicholls snltl that In Ills own
opinion the convention would not de
clare for a general strike, and added
thut ho believed It would be tho wisest
course to avoid a general strike and
have the nnthraelte miners light It out
with the financial assistance that could
he given by the bituminous men. Said
Mr, Nicholls:
"The public can be given to under
stand that as long an the miners have
enough breud to keep them ullve they
will be willing to stay out on strike. If
we secure the financial support of the
bituminous miners at the Indianapolis
convention It will bo for an indefinite
period, unci not until Oct. 1, as some
of the newspapers have erroneously
stated. We do not care how deter
mined the operators are to hold out to
tho bitter end, because wo know that
wo can sta'nd tho fight. When they
arc brought to a realization of this
fact, as they will when tho Indianapo
lis convention Is held, they will Immedi
ately change their tune and assume an
entirely dlffoicnt attitude."
GENERALLY HELD.
Tho opinion expressed by Mr. Nich
olls that the convention will not de
clare for a general strike Is very gen
erally held. In fact It is very freely
predicted that tho matter of a general
strike will not be seriously broached,
nnd that the convention will devote
Its attention exclusively to the matter
of devising means of helping the an
thracite miners financially. The oper
ators have caicfully canvassed the sen
timent of the bituminous miners In re
gard to Ignoring contracts and declar
ing for a geneial strike, and they de
clare that there Is only one likelihood
of a general strike occurring, and that
that likelihood rests on the bare possi
bility of some such incident as that
which carried the Chicago convention
for free silver and Bryan.
The local delegates to the national
convention will leaw here tomorrow
morning. President Nicholls, Vice Pres
ident Kyscavage and Secretary Dcmp-
soy will accompany them. There will
be eighty-live delegates from the First
district. President Mitchell left Satur
day for the convention.
President Nicholls has Issued the fol
lowing notice:'
All momuois of the United Mine Work
ers are warned not to believe the state
ments which we aie Informed miuo foie
men nio making to the men on strike.
Wo aio lufoimed that mine foiemcn aro
telling men that they ought to go and do
vailous kinds of work in and around tho
mines because (they say) the distilct ofll
ccrs have given permission to members
at other places to do the same work. Wo
wish to state that wo have not given per
mission to any members to do work of
any kind at any colliery except tho steam
men at collieries where the eight-hour
day has been granted at former pay.
Any of our members wanting infor
mation can apply to tho piesldent of Ihe
local of the colliery whoio he works. No
business Is done except through tho local
ofliccrs. T. D. Nichols,
President District No. 1.
M. II. Hcalcy, Board Member.
MADE THREATS.
John Francis, of Bellevuo, was ar
rested Saturday at the Instance
of Frederick Reynolds, of Lincoln
Heights, on the charge of making
threats. Reynolds is an engineer at
tho Bdlevuo mine and continues at
woik. Francis met hlin Thursday, he
says, and after calling him opprobrious
names, threatened to "do him" if he
did not give up work. Francis will be
given a hearing today.
When the strike was ordered, the
.Seranton Coal company was just begin
ning to get the upper hand of a serious
fire at the Richmond No. 3 colliery,
near the Dickson City line. The with
drawal of the (ire lighters allowed tho
lire to pain headway, and with the
limited force available, great difficulty
wns experienced hi checking It.. A hole
has been sunk to tho burning area and
water from the Lackawanna will be
turned Into the mine. By the time the
fro Is extinguished by Hooding and tho
wut pi pumped out again, tho minors'
strike will be sottled, It Is safe to say.
ROOMS WERE RENOVATED.
Quarters of Rowing Association Were
Formally Opened Saturday Night.
The? rooms of the, Seranton Rowing
association were reopened Saturday
night, after being closed for six weeks
for renovation. A great Improvement
has been wrought and those who lu-

PASTOR RESIGNS.
Rev. George L. Alrich Severs His
Connection with Grace Reformed
Episcopal Church.
Rev. George L. Alrich, pastor of the
Grace Reformed Episcopal church, ten
dered the resignation of his pastorate
at n vestry meeting held last Friday
night. Tho resignation has not been
ucted on, but will be accepted with
much regret, as It Is realized that on
account of tho many demands being
made upon Mr. Alrich, as u Bible
teacher, by conferences, associations,
etc., he Is being called to an enlarged
and Imperative work.
At the morning service yesterday,
Mr. Alrich read tho following letter:
My Dear Brethren: It Is certainly duo
to u and to tho membership of Grace
church, to have a word of explanation
on my pint respecting the step that
severs the bond that has united us as
people nnd pastor for nearly nine "years.
It seems hardly necessary to say that
this step has not been taken without
much prayer and careful thought; and
only in obedience to what our Lord Jesus
has been pleased to make known as Ills
will In the matter. It Is not my purpose
to enter Into any lengthy statement of
the experiences that have come to mo
In reaching this decision; only to say
that our Lord has led tho way step by
step, very plainly.
Tho years of our fellowship have been
years of great blessing and piollt to my
own self; and my heart Is deeply grate
ful to our Father for having led mo to
you, as also of thankfulness to you, each
nnd all, for the many evidences of your
love and appreciation of the etforts, fee
ble and faulty as they have been, to
serve you in the things of our I.oul Jesus;
they speak to me of your approval of
the attempt to preach simply the Word,
nnd to hold up Christ, and Him crucified,
risen, nscended, coming.
The severance of the tie is not made for
the purpose of entering upon any pastor
ate in the Reformed Episcopal church or
any other body, but simply nnd solely
unto Him and Ills service, whatever that
may be. At the present His leading
seems to be Tory plainly to the work of
teaching the Word alone. And He has
clearly show'n mo that In this He would
liavo mo stand looking to Him alone.
May our gracious Lord bloss, keep and
guide us, each and all, In His own way,
granting us to grow in grace and In tho
Knowledge of our Lord and Saviour
Jesus Christ. Very sincerely,
Yours in the Lord,
George L. Alrich.
Rev. Mr. Alrich was called to the
pastorate of Grace church nine years
ago, to succeed Rev. Dr. Bates. The
church has enjoyed a steady and deep
growth along all lines In this time and
Mr. Alrich has not only endeared him
self to his congregation but to the peo
ple of the .community generally. His
ability nnd enthusiasm as a teacher of
the Bible has brought him In close con
tact with tho workers of many other
denominations.
HEROISM WAS FUTILE.
Headed Off Snake Poison, but Caused
Gangrene.
George Rauschmeyer, a farmer, of
Mt. Cobb, Is suffering from a serious
attack of blood poisoning, ns a result
of his heroic treatment of a snake bite,
A few weeks ago, while working In a
field, he was bitten on a finger of the
left linnd by'n rattlesnake. The wound
caused by tho fangs was such as to
Impel him to extreme precautions and,
fearing tho ill consequences of delay,
he whipped out his jackknlfc nnd am
putated the linger below the bite.
This saved him from having the rep
tile's poison carried Into his system, but
tho crude and non-antiseptic surgery
resulted in gangrene, nnd there is now
danger of his being compelled to sub
mit to the amputation of his hund, and
possibly his arm.

cursion was run to Harvey's Lake
Saturday. It was the second annual
outing of tho International Correspond
ence Schools association and employes
of the International Correspondence

regular course dinner was served be
tween 11 and 4 o'clock, and dancing
was indulged in by many at Intervals
during the day.

aquatic sports were begun, and these
