Miners of Spring Valley Adopt Peaceful
Resolutions.
THE NEGRO MINERS STILL EXILED
According to the Resolutions, However,
Thoy May Return to Work Unmolested
by the Angry Foreigners Kegroes
Said to bo Arming.
SrniNO Valley, Ills., Aug. H. state
troops, for tho prosont, nt loast, will not
ba ordered to this turbulent town. Peace
has boon declared. Tills wns brought
about through the efforts of Colonol Hugh
M. Buylo, assistant adjutant general, sent
hero by Govoruor Altgold. Colonel Baylo
reached hero at 1 o'clock yestorday after
noon. Ho wns mot at tho hotol by Sheriff
Clark, Judgo Trlinbio and other officials
nnd prominent citizens. A short confer
ence was hold In which Colonel Baylo
outlined tho policy of Governor Altgold
regarding tho present trouble.
'Govornor Altgold sout mo hero," said
Colonel Baylo, "to Investigate tho trouble
and nscortuln whoro tho blumo lies. Ho
also instructed mo to bring ubout a settle
ment, posslblo, without the aid of troops.
Tho govornor told mo that all Amorlcau
cltlzons, rogardless of color or race, woro
to bo protected. If upon Investigation I
find that tho local authorities aro unablo
or unwilling to maintain law and order,
then troops will bo sout horo. Law uud
order must bo enforced at any cost."
Colonol Baylo was Informed by Shorlff
Clarke, Superintendent Dalzoll and othor
citizens, miners and public officers that no
ono had yot beou klllod. All admitted,
however, that 100 oltlzons, all colored, hud
been driven from their homes by a mob
composed of Italians, Poles, Bavarians
and Hungarian miners. Many shots wore
fired, and somo ot tho colorod minors woro
wounded and brutally houten. Those
negroos, men, women and children, hud
been assailed and ruthlessly drlvon from
tholr homes and forced to go to Soaton
vlllo. As to this outrage all wero agreed,
but that any ono hud been killed or fatally
wounded, both coal company olHclals,
miners aud tho law officers denlod.
Colonel Baylo was then informed that
tho minors wore to hold a mass meeting
on tho public square ut 3 o'clock, ut which
tho following resolutions woro to bu pre
onted for adoption:
Whereas, u raco conflict has takon place
In this city within tho last few days, re
sulting in no loss of life, but In serious
hurdshlp uud lnconvenlonco to a consider
able section of this community;
Rosolvod, that we, tho minors of Spring
Vulloy In mass mooting assomblod, de
clare It to bo our bolief that all men, re
gardless of race, color uud creed, uro born
with the samo equal right, uud should on
Joy tho same opportunities lu tho pursuit
of their happiness,
Rosolvod, that wo donounco any at
tempt at the suppressing of thoso rights
as unjust and barbarous, and pledge our
selves to maintain law und ordor as fur us
lies in our power.
Resolved, that wo are roady uow to ro
umt work providing the Spring Vulloy
Coal company is reudy to start their
mines.
Resolved, that wo donounco lying re
ports, misreprosontlng this city, sont to
the Chicago papers by ono Bulloy, of
Princeton. Thoso dispatches in tho main
aro infamous, distorted and exaggerated
boyond human reasoning. In denouncing
theso atrocious misrepresentations wo hold
as accountable tho publishers of tho Chi
cago press, who could easily havo Informed
themselves as to the uctuul truth of the
situation.
At tho appointed hour about 630 minors
assomblod lu tho publlo square at a mass
mooting. It was a curious gathering.
Every nation in oustern and southern
Europo was represented. Every motion
that was made and overy speech had to be
repeated at least six times, and each time
in a different languugo.
Tho voto on tho resolutions was about a
tio, but the chairman declared It curried.
Tho mooting thon adjourned.
Notwithstanding tho minors' resolution,
It Is generally boliovcd that if tho negroes
roturn to work thoro will bo trouble.
ChloAco Negroes Organizing,
Chicago, Aug. 8. The polico havo re
solved information which leads them to
believo that tho colorod men of this city
have perfeoted an organization, and aro
arranging with tho intention of attack
ing the Italian minors at Spring Vulloy.
The information came from a number of
pawnbrokors, who stated that they had
been approached during tho day by col
orod men who wero anxious to purchase
Winchester rifles. In several instances
purchases were made, but as a general
thing the pawnbrokers did not have
suough of tho riflos to make a deal with
the colored mon. Ono of tho would bo pur
chasers said when asked what ho wanted
to do with a number of riflos: "Oh, we'll
show tho dagoos what wo want with
them."

STANISLAUS WAS WICKED.
o Also Had a Very (lullly l'arainour lu
Josephine.
Stanislaus Kwaplch was placed under $800
ball last night by Justice Shoemaker on
charges of non-support, desertion and
adultery, made by his wife, Christina. Ho
wis taken to l'ottsville this morning by Chief
Burgoss Hums, in default of bail.
Kwaplch was arrested at Jessup, Lacka
wanna county, on Tuesday night by Joseph
Iiunitskic, of town, who wu3 deputized to
make the arrest. The story of Kwnpich's
career of the past few months is an Interest
ing one, and couples with his experiences
some chapters in tlio life of a woman who
clings to him closer than his wife. Sinco last
October Kwaplch has been on intimate terms
with one Josephine Strength. Kwnpich and
his wife had $500 on deposit in one of tho
local banks, lie induced tho wife to
withdraw tho money some months ago and
when he got hold of it eloped with Josephine,
was sent to jail, hut Kwnpich was forgiven
upon returning tho money and swearing be
fore a priest that ho would have nothing
more to do with his paramour. He resumed
relations with his wife and induced her to
entrust hm with tho $r00 to make a deposit
in bank. Ho made a deposit of $50 and,
adding a cipher to tho amount in tho bank
book, led tho wife to believo that tho full
amount was in safe keeping.
With the $-130 in his pocket Kwapich
again deserted his wife and four children but
soon after wrote to her from Prlceburg, near
Scranton, that ho was building a nice home
thero for tho family. Soon after ho returned
to town and spent several days with his wife.
Ho said he was taking a vacation from t ho
labors of providinga homestead at I'riceburg,
but when he went away again he located at
Jessup, where he was arrested.
Meantime Josephine had been released
from the l'ottsville jail and married ono Joe
Scupki, who works on a farm in the Cata
wissa valley, hut she kept up a correspon
dence with Kwnpich. When tho latter ar
rived at Jessup lie induced Josephine to
desert her husband and join him. They
lived together as man and wife and when
Itunitskie made the arrest a christening cere
mony was in progress at tho house. Jose
phine is still at Jessup. Her husband lias
discarded her. Kwapich is in tho hands of
his wife and sho says sho will attend to him
this time.
