Addressed by Organizer Fahy at a Meeting Last Night. THE BITUMINOUS FIELD ! Miners of This Place Urfed to Disregard the Inducements Offered for Hen to Take Strikers' Places. About two hundred Kngllsh spenklng miners ond laborers stood in Franey's hall lost evening to listen to on address by Organizer Fahy on the advisability of Joining the local lodge of tho United Mine Workers' Organization. Mr. Fahy spoke for a half hour in bis clear, easy manner, Interesting the men from the start and holding their attention to the end. Ho explained the issues be tween the operators nnd the miners in the bituminous region ; told how the recent strike hnd been forced upon the men nnd how they hnd won it j of whnt powerful bncking the anthracite men would havo by Joining the great organization of tho bituminous field nnd how they might lm provo their present condition, nnd much else thnt ho had said In nu address here about n month ago. Of an agent advertising nt Ashland for miners to go West, ho made the following warm remnrks : "Miners, for your own welfnre, as well as for the entire country, pay no attention to William F. Bnrr and nil other compnny ngents from Western Pennsylvnnin, who are now in this region trying to getmlners to go to Western Pennsylvania to scab. There is a strike there that bos been going on since lost February. Tho operntors whom llnrr represents wnnt to pay only 5o cents per ton. when nil operntors, except three compnnles mere, nre now pnying scnie rates of 09 cents per ton. Last year the miners there did not average more thau 75 cents per day, and now the company wishes to cut them 14 cents per ton. llnrr says: 'Good wages and steady work.' Ho lies, and he knows it. If there were good wages and steady work, there are thousands of idle miners in that field who would take advantage of It and Bnrr would not now be going around the coun try trying to dupe innocent, poor men by fairy tales. He says he will pay two dol lars per dny for 30 dnys, evidently expect ing tue strike to be broken by that time; but he nnd the comnnnv mislead them selves. It will last until these companies uo as nu otuers nro wining nnd sntisued to do pay scale rates. These companies, together with others in tho same Held, were the cause of the crent miners' strike just ended in the West by taking advan tage oi tueir miners, who wero not then organized and forcing them to accept re ductions of from 21 to 35 cents per ton, thus expecting to undersell their brother operntors ond do n good business during the depression at the expense of tho miner; but other operntors were forced to cotno to a competitive basts, or shut up their mines, and they hnd to reduce their men. The big strike forced wages up to thnt point where the reduction wns only ten cents nnd settled tho strike, nil operntors but these fewngreeinc iay it, nnd now they wish to renew the light nnd throw the entire country into trouble nnd tur moil again ; and, if they should succeed and defeat the miners there, depend upon It, the miners in the anthracite field will get another fourteen per cent., or more, of a reduction. We are competitors in the strictest sense when it suits the purpose of the evil-minded operator. He uses the miners of one part of the country as a whip to defeat the other pirt and then we all sink to the level of tho defented ones. So, I say, pay no nttention to Bnrr. He is paid for duping men. Tho more he dupes, tho greater the amount of his blood-money for so doing. I have no doubt but that if tho anthracite miners were on strike you would find him trying to get soft coal miners to take their places. It is dollars and cents with him. He can hnve no love for strange miners thnt would prompt him to look nf tor their interests. Ho was very near mobbed at Shamokin yesterday by ludignent citizens anil nt Ashland he cot n cold recentlon. which is perfect in keeping with the water inni uows tnrougu uis veins." The organizer's sneech received worm applause. Those of the audience who were not already members were then in vited to enroll their nnmes in the orgnnl zatlon's support and a largo number did so. A secret session followed, which wns concluded nt nbout ten o'clock. Mr. Fahy has been organizing iu Schuyl kill, Luzerne nnd Northumberland couu; ties for a month nnd Is enthuslastio over his success. He was told that the men of Shenandoah would be hard to organize, but he says he has not found them so. Such onoouragement has he received here that he expects to hold the next meeting in a larger room, proliahly Fer guson's I beat re, or Robbing' hall. He de ported to-dny for Pottsville. PERSONAL.
