TnE SCALE OF WAQBS.
General Supt. Lawall, of tho Lehigh &
Wilkesbarro, mot the mon ou the South Sido
on Saturday aud agreed upon an advauco in
wages that is satisfactory to tho committee
and through tho committco to the employes,
who will return to work Tuesday morning
provldod the strikers at tho othor colliorics
want them to resume. If tho latter demand
that they remain out, they may do so out of
sympathy though not rejecting tho proposl.
tlon of tho company.
Following is tho now scalo of wages as
agreed upon by Supt. Lawall: Stripping and
outside laborers, f 1.10 por day ; drivors, 1st.
class, $1.35, 2nd. class, $1.30, 3rd, class, $120
Hitchers, 1st. class, $1.15, 2nd, class, $1.10 ;
water boys, 75 cents ; slate pickers 40 cents
to $1 ; platform mon $1.25 ; footmen aj.
breakers, $1.25; stripping Illinois, 1st. class,
$1.50, 2nd. class, $1.25; inside rate on
Lehigh region basis: stripping engineers
$1.47 to $1.35 ; hoisting engineers, $1.47 shall
be the lowest class; and agreo to adjust all
difficulties as speedily as possible.
A SOLDIER HELD UP.
One of tho soldiers camping at Beaver
Brook was held up on the highway at Mc
Adoo last evening. Ho was relieved of his
rovolver, $13 in cash and all his ammunition.
CAUSE OP THE TltOUJlLE.
Tho causo of all tho trouhlo dates back
nearly six wooks ago when the Lehigh &
Wilkesbarro employes first went out. At
that time the company promised to adjust
the matter if tho mon would return to
work. The men accopted tho terms hut
when the timo came for an adjustment tho
company fulled to keep their word. This
immediately precipitated another strike
which ended in murder last Friday. Had
Superintendent Lawall and his company done
two weoks ago what they did on Saturday
there would have been no murder committed
aud all miners would now bo at work.
MR. FAHKY INTERVIEWED.
President Fuhoy, of the United Mine
Workers Association, to-day gavo out tho
following interview, as tho best means of
avoiding further trouble : "In my opinion,
if the proper thing were done, operators and
miners throughout this entire district
would come together and agreo upon a uni
form scalo of wages and conditions of em
ployment to govern all alike. It seems to
me that if this were dono it would give more
general satisfaction and go further toward
preventing discontent between employer and
employed, than can possibly be expected
from not doing this. I beilovo, too, that
something of this kind would bo fair to all
concerned, employer as well as employed.
In this district natural advantages and dis
advantages In the production of coal are
practically tho same to all, thereforo it seems
that no employer in the district should have
an advantage over another employer when
paying wages to or imposing conditions on
employes for performing the samo grades of
work. I fail to see where any porsou could
In fairness object to bringing about a condi
tion such as this, that would in its operation
in this region treat all allko and give neither
an advantage over tho other. At this time I
know of nothing else that is better calcu
lated to promote- and continue a healthy
fueling of satisfaction and contentment be
tween the employers and employed of this
district."
The Hungarians employed at Lattimer,
enraged at tho killing of their countrymen,
have decided to remain out until they are
granted an advance. Thus Latimer is added
to tho towns on the strike list.
OPERATORS CONFER.
All the principal operators aro in attend

STORIES OF STRIKERS.
Versions Given lly Some as to the Fatal
Shooting ut Lattimer.
" Ta., Sept. IS. The situation
here today In graver than It has been
at any time since the bloody affray
of Friday afternoon. There Is strong
reason to fear a conflict between the
strikers and the mllltury, and theie
is an indication that from 5,000 to 7,000
more miners will Join the malcontents.
Feeling contlues high against Sheriff
Martin and his deputies, and the In
tensity of the situation Is such that
a sudden turn of the head or a word
spoken above the ordinary tone brings
a running crowd. Tho soldiers are
watchful and ready for any emergency.
and the people of the town are in a
state which may easily become panic.
An incident of ugly omen occurred
during the funeral of three of the vic
tims yesterday. While services were
being held Inside St. Joseph's churoh
about 2,000 of the foreigners were con
gregated about the doors. A number
of them raised their voices, and it Is de
clared by eyo witnesses that a police
man stationed near the door became
unduly ofllclous. Instantly an ominous
muttering, mingled with scowling looks
and clenched lists, followed. Word was
immediately carried Indoors to the Rev.
Father Aust. He hurried out to the
door and bundled the men who seem
ed most quarrelsome Into the church.
A few words of counsel to the others
prevented further demonstrations.
The military authorities are deter
mined that from this time on there
shall be no marching of any character
whatsoever, whether during funerals
or otherwise. This resolution Is not
generally known, and the miners are
going on with their arrangements for
funeral marches. It Is apparent that
General Gobln Is not cheered by the
immediate outlook. Although he isays
he thinks there will be no further tur
bulence, he would not say when the
troops are likely to be withdrawn, nnd
he has resolved to act with the. utmost
rigor.
Furthermore he made a revelation
which put a startling aspect upon the
situation. This was that tho house of
the engineer of No. 3 colliery had been
broken into late Saturday night by
six mnsked men, and the engineer, who
is a crlppel, unmercifully beaten. There
is no clew to the identity of the as
sailants. The only work the man has
been doing lately is the pumping neces
sary to free the mine from water. The
general had also received a formal re
port of the Audenrled outrage of last
Thursday night, when strikers broke
into tho house of Gomer Jones, su
perintendent of tho Lehigh and Wilkes
barro Coal company. Jones, whose un
popularity with the miners was one of
the first causes of the strike, was not
there, but tho men literally wrecked
the Interior of the house and then at
tacked a mine power house nearby and
stole therefrom a quantity of dynamite.
As soon as he heard of this General
Gobln assigned a gunrd of the Thir
teenth regiment to remain at Auden
rled. The addition to tho strikers' ranks, If
made, will be the men at Coxe's mines,
and should they go out the last big
anthracite company In the region will
be Idle. It was not known until yes
terday that the 2,000 men employed
at Colliery No. 7 held a meeting at
Stockton Saturday night and drew up
a petition to the operators demanding
an Increase of 10 per cent. The action
In tho event of refusal is "strike." It
Is accepted as a fact that if these men
go out all the others employed by tho
company will Join them, making the
total number something between 5,000
and 7,000 from these mines alone. Thr
Coxe men had already been offered an
Increase, but rejected it on the ground
that it was still lower than the scale
paid by the other operators in the re
gion. To all Intent and purposes Hazleton.
Is under martial law. General Gobln
dpclared last night that, in spite of the
warrants issued, no constables nor any
civic authority will be permitted to
arrest the hated deputies. He said that
the sheriff is an executive officer whose
duty is to preserve the peace, and that
he, Gobln, and the troops are really
subordinate to the sheriff at this time,
being engaged in helping him to per
form that duty. Under these circum
stances he will not permit Interference
with the sheriff's ofllcl&ls so long as
the militia is here. In spite of this fine
distinction, the commander's decision
on this point Is accepted as superceding
the olvil authorities by tho military
power.
The events pf yesterday were the
death of another of tho wounded, Ja
cob Tomashantos, the 18-year-old boy
who was shot through the head, and
the announcement by the hospital doc
tors that five more will die, and the
funeral of four of the victims. Theso
were Andrew Yureck, Steve Urich,
John Futa and Mike Cheslok. Ten more
will be burled today, and here the
trouble Is likely to occur. It has been
arrangod that the ten cofllns Bhall be
carried on the shoulders of the strikers
from the undertaker's shop to the front
of St. Joseph's church. In front of the
church a platform Is to be erected, upon
which it is the purpose to place the
ten cofllns, so that they may be viewed,
by the crowd.
Then addresses In Polish, Lithuanian
and English aro to be made by priests
and others. The bodies will then be
carried Inside and pontifical high mass
will be celebrated. After the services
the procession will go to the Polish
cemetery, where eight of the oofllns,
those containing Poles, will be placed In
one large grave. It Is the purpose to
acquire by subscription sufficient funds
to erect over this a monument bearing
the names of the victims and a brief
history ot the event. Seventeen so
cieties, all but one made up of Poles,
Hungarians and others of the Slav
race, and one of Irish, are to march
In the funeral procession. If General
Gobln executes the Intention he an
nounced last night this whole program
will be upset, and It Is feared that the
men will resent any Interference with
the disposition of their dead.
Dr. H. P. Lewandoskl, of New York,
representing the Polish societies of that
city, arrived hare yesterday. He Is em
powered to assist the strikers in every
possible way. He said he had received
word that a chtck for $1,000 from the
National Polish Alliance, which' re
