THINKS POLICE
ARE NECESSARY
LOSING FAITH IN MITCHELL'S
ASSURANCES.
The North American Coal Company,
Which Took the Strike Leaders'
Word for It That Coal and Iron
Police Are a Superfluity, Is Begin
ning to Have Doubts Their Work
men Mobbed Last Evening While
Leaving tho Washery D., L. & W.
Starts Another Mine.
Tho North American Coal company,
operating the National wnshcry nt tho
city lino near Mlnookn," rend In tho re
ported speeches of President Mitchell
and other strike leaders that the pres
ence of deputy sheriffs and coal and
Iron police was wholly unnecessary In
and about collieries; that they were
engaged by the coal companies solely
for the purpose of causing bother so
as to bring on the nillltla; that the
mine workers themselves stood ready
to furnish protection against assaults
on operators' Interests and so on and
so forth.
Taking Prefldont Mitchell and the
other strike leaders at their word, the
North American Coal company,through
President Anthony, addressed a letter
to President Mitchell announcing that
tho company would start Its washery
without making requisition for "depu
ties or Installing coal and Iron police
piotectkin, and requesting that Presi
dent Mitchell see to It that the com
pany could proceed with its operations
without being enforced to bring In tho
much abused and detested co.il and
Iron police.
President Mitchell replied that It was
not up to him to furnish protection
for the company, but he gave hls'posl
tlve assurance that the company would
not be molested In any Way by mem
bers of the United Mine Workers of
America.
BEGAN OPERATIONS.
On the strength of this assurance
the company commenced operations,
without hiring a single watchman,
other than the usual force of one for
the day and one for the night.
One week ago Friday the company's
pump house was blown up by dyna
mite. The following Sunday night dy
namite was exploded along their car
rier lino. Fiequently the washery and
workmen have been stoned, and last
night they were mobbed. Manager
Sharkey said, when he reached the cen
tral city and got through relating his
experiences, that the company is be
ginning to lose faith In President
Mitchell's assurances. '
"Wo have not entirely lost faith in
Mr. Mitchell's assurances that coal and
iron police are not necessary just now
In this region for the protection of
coal property," said Mr. Sharkey, "but
if our experiences of the past few
weeks continue, we will feel inclined to
back up Mr. Mitchell's assurances with
a few Maxim rapid-fire guns."
The mobbing, last night, while ex
citing, was unattended by any serious
results, thanks to good fortune and
bad aim.
Manager Sharkey at the head of his
thirty-four men left the washery a lit
tle before 6 o'clock and started up tW8
Delaware and Hudson tracks towards
tho central city as is their wont. A
crowd of about half a hundred men
and boys that had been lying In wait,
dropped In behind them and proceeded
to volley them with stones. ,The wash
ery men quickened their gait and their
assailants did likewise.
IT RAINED STONES.
From the washery to the silk mill It
fairly rained stones. The workmen
made no show of fight, but hurried on
tcr get out of reachbf the mob. The
assailants did not attempt to get very
close, as their numbers did not war
rant them in engaging in a hand-to-hand
conflict. Tho workmon, by skill
ful dodging, managed to escape being
hit very often and finally got safely
away from the stone throwers, who did
not care to risk carrying the hostilities
into the built up portion of tho town.
The stone throwers were no sooner
left behind than the workmon encoun
tered the silk mill girls, just emerging
from the mills. They were hooted and
jeered and subjected to some very
uncomplimentary remarks. One bf
them was bit on the head with a bag
of wet dirt thrown from a window of
the mill, it was not until the workmen
reached Washington avenue that they
left their assailants behind.
"One more experience of that kind,"
declared Manager Sharkey, "and there
will bo something doing around the
National."
PETTEBONE STARTED.
The Delaware, Lackawanna and
Western company has succeeded In
starting up another colliery, the Pctte
bone, at Kingston. Miners have been
cutting coal thero for several weeks,
and yesterday, tho work of running It
through the breaker was begun. This
makes six collieries the Lackawanna
company Is now working, Tomorrow
tho company expects to start up the
new Bellevue washery.
The Marvlne colliery of tho Delaware
and Hudson company which btarted
up Tuesduy was shut down, yesterday,
At tho company's office, It was- stated
that the Marvlne will not run regularly
for some time yet. The cutting of coal
will continue right nlong, but tho
breaker will only bo run when sufficient
coal Is at' tho foot to warrant the start
lug up of the machinery.
Superintendent Tobey, of tho Dela
ware, Lackawanna and Western com
pany, bald yesterday, there aro a num
ber of his company's collieries that
aro likely to resume operations at any
time. Each of the district superlHtend
cnts has been Instructed to start any
colliery when a sufficient number of
men have been secured to operate It.
At Tuesday's conference with the dis
trict supeilntendents It was learned
that at several collieries tho superin
tendents ure only wultlng for a few
more men beforo making a start.
SJIOW NO ALARM,
The mine workeis' officials do not
evidence any great alarm at the re
ported resumption of work at local col
llerles. They say that the number of
men employed Is so small that the coal
they tun produce Is comparatively In
significant, None of them will for a
moment admit that they regard these
operations as an Indication of a break
up of the' strike.
The district officers of the mine
workers went to Wllkes-Barre, yester
day, to attend a conference called by
National President Mitchell.

Tho Green Ridge Iron works, which
closed during tho second week of tho
strike because of Inability to secure

satisfactory arrangements having been
made for a full supply.
PRETTY CHEAP CROOK.
James McCormick Arrested for- Steal
ing Pennies Contributed to Lack
awanna Hospital Children,
Patrolman Fred Karlus and Detect
ive Jack Tlerney arrested va young
man yesterday morning, who gave the
name of James McCormick, and who
proved on Investigation to be a very
cheap sort of criminal Indeed.
McCormick and another man were nt
the Commercial restaurant a few
nights ago, and shortly after they left
It was found that one of the little wood
en cradles Into which persons charitably-Inclined
drop their spare coins,
for the children at the Lackawanna
hospital, was also missing.
"Well, that's the limit," remarked
one of the waiters, "when a sneak thief
has to steal a few pennies from those
poor little kids," and an Instant search
was Instituted, which resulted in Mc
cormick's arrest yesterday. His com
panion escaped, with the cradle which
contained 78 cents.
McCormick has been arrested before,
and Is regarded as a suspicious char
acter by the police. He was fined $25
yesterday, and held for further inves
tigation. Detective Deitcr was at work
all afternoon, nnd as a result of his
searches was much disgusted with Mc
Cormick. "He's a. crook all right," said the
detective, "but he's a very low grade
one. He may have ambitions of some,
day becoming a class No. 1 sharper,
but he'll never attain them. One of
his favorite stunts lias been to repre
sent himself as nn official of the Team
sters' union, and offer to .secure work
for men at a small consideration. I
haven't been able to find many people
he succeeded in duping however. On
the whole, Mr. McCormick Is a pretty
cheap skate."
MATTERS POLITICAL.
John C. Roche, agent of Casey &
Kelly, is out for the Democratic nom
ination for representative In the Sec
ond legislative district. Fred Kirchoff
has withdrawn from the race, leaving
J. F. Hammes and Fred Phillips to
combat the new comer. Mr. Hammes
is chairman of the district committee
and thereby is empowered to appoint
the vlgilants in all except one or two
districts, which alone took the trouble
to elect and return vlgilants. Much
depends on tho personnel of the vigil
ants, us the primaries are likely to at
tract few voters, and the appointments
of Chairman and Candidate Hammes,
In consequence, will be anxiously
awaited. He said, yesterday, ho would
probably announce them next Fridny
through the newspapers. The primar
ies will be held Monday next, and the
convention the following day.
The meeting of tho state Republican
committee in Philadelphia, yesterday,
was attended by a number of promin
ent Republicans from these parts.
Among them were Internal Revenue
Collector T. F. Penman, who was sub
stituted for ex-Congressman J. A.
Scranton; ex-Speaker John R. Farr,
tho other committeeman from this dis
trict; Colonel L. A. Watres, and Ho
mer Green, of Honesdale, two of the
committeemen-at-large, and United
States Court Clerk E. R. W, Searle,
who represents the Susquehanna
Wayne district.
J. M. Casey, chairman of the Demo
cratic standing committee of the First
Legislative district, has issued a call
for a convention to be held Tuesday,
September 23, In Mulhcrln's hall, North
Scranton, at 1.30 p. m., for the purpose
of nominating u, candidate for the leg
islature. The primaries will bo held on
Saturday, September 20.
,
Colonel F. J. Fltzslmmons, who is a
member of tho committee appointed to
officially notify the Democratic stato
candidates of their nomination, left
yesterday for Reading, where this even
ing they will notify the candidates in
the Reading Auditorium.
A Point to idslst On.
There are endless numbers of travel
ing people who go regularly from New
York to Chicago nnd vice versa several
times a month, who have never gone
over any other road but the Lake
Shore & Michigan Southern, because
this road Is good enough for them. It's
good enough for anybody, the fastest,
safest, most convenient and mo$t com
fortable road In America. Onco you
travel over the Lake Shore and you will
not want to experiment with any other
road. People who know the comforts
and discomforts of traveling, and what
they have a right to expect, always
Insist on their tickets reudlng by way
of the Lake Shore. So should you,

WERE NON-COMMITTAL.
Coroner's Jury Evades the Question
of Responsibility in tho Case of
Marcus Dillon.
As far ns the coroner's jury's finding
Is concerned, the inquest went for
naught in tho case of Marcus Dillon,
the 4-ycar-old boy, who was killed July
8, at the Parker street crossing, by
being run down by a Delaware and
Hudson passenger train. Tho verdict
was simply: "We find that the said
Marcus Dillon came to his death by
being struck by a Delaware and Hud
son passenger train nt the Parker
street crossing, July 8, 1902." The ques
tion of possible negligence was evaded.
From the testimony adduced at tho
hearing Inst night and. the one preced
ing it, some few wedks ago, It Is doubt
ful if the jurors would be warranted In
coming to nny conclusion on the ques
tion of culpability.
Mr. and Mrs. Henry Dover, of 842
Capouse avenue, started out for a drive
In a single carriage about 7 o'clock on
the evening In question. The Dillon
boy, tho child of a neighbor, was play
ing about the carriage, when they were
preparing to start off, and with tho
consent of his mother, Mrs. Dover took
him along.
In attempting to drive over the Dela
ware and Hudson tracks at Parker
street, an hour Inter, the carriage was
struck by a north-bound passenger
train and all three t occupants were
badly injured. The Dillon boy died
shortly afterward. Mr. Dover had his
arm broken and Mrs. Dover was badly
bruised and cut.
At the first hearing in the inquest
four witnesses testified that the horse
contlnugd on a trot the whole length
of Parker street and that no stop was
made before going on the crossing,
Last night, Mr. Dover testified that
he reined in the horse at Amelia ave
nue, .about one hundred feet from the
crossing, and looked nnd listened for
an approaching train. He then drove
on at a slow trot and the horse was
just nbout on the crossing when the
train came down upon them. The horse
made three plunges to the right and
forward and drew the carriage on the
track. Ho heard no boll or whistle
until tho engine was practically on top
of them, when there was a shrill blast
of tho whistle, which caused the horse
to plunge.
Mrs. Dover testified that she heard
no whistle or bell, and did not see the
train until it was a few feet distant.
She grasped her husband's arm, made
a startled exclamation, nnd fainted.
Sho knew nothing more until seveinl
days later, when she regained her
senses in the Lackawanna hospital.
The witnesses were examined at
length by Coroner Saltry, and cross
examined, In the Interests of the com
pany, by Attorney J. II. Tor'rey.
The jurors were John Devanney,
Owen Barrett, Thomas F. Loftus, Ed
ward F. Morris, John J. Watt and P. J.
Gllloegly.
