SUCCESSFUL OPERATION.
Faying Teller BcmiUn Hail n Very Narrow
ISioape.
Wlion it was rcportod yesterday Hint Mr.
Thomas M. Soaulan. the paying teller at the
Merchants' National Bank and son-in-law of
Hon. M. C. WaUon, was very 111 at his homo
on West Cherry streot it was not realized
that death was as near as subsequently
becaroo known. Mr. Scanlan was attacked
by appendicitis last Friday and his condition
became more precarious each day. It was
decided yesterday to summon Prof. Denver, a
specialist of Philadelphia, and last night be
performed an operation, removing the vermi
form appendix. Tho operation was highly
successful and the patient's complete recovery
Is now confidently looked for, although Prof.
Dcaver says that Mr. Scanlan's escape from
death was ft narrow one. Had the operation
been deferred death would have rosultod
within twonty-four hours. Tho announce
ment of tho successful operation and tho
patient's chances for recovery is accepted
with much gratification. Mr. Scanlan is
held in high esteem and any other result of
his Illness would have been rocolvcd with the
deepest regret. Prof. Denver is professor of
applied and surgical anatomy at tho Univer
sity of Pennsylvania and also surgeon to the
German Hospital of Philadelphia. Ho was
assisted by Drs. D. J. Langton, Q. M.
Hamilton, J. S. Callen, W. N. Stoln and also
nr. James Monaghan, of Eaiton.

Special to Evening 1Ieiim.i.
Hazlktom. Sept. 14, 8 p. m. Thero is a
decided change in the (Strike situation at this
writing, and to tho (usual aud fair-minded
observer it must seem evident that by tho
end of the week the trouble will in most
cases have been Bstlsfffctorlly adjusted, and
tho only vestlgo of tile shooting that will
remain will bo the memory of it.
Everything Is as quiet as it possibly can be
and business has aMUilted a comparatively
normal state. Tho cxcltemout that has
prevailed for several days is on tho wane and
the friends of the bereaved are becoming
moro pacified. But tho determination to
prosecute the sheriff trad his deputlos is just
as great as ever, mid as soon as tho evidence
is all gathered in and tho result of tho
Austrian Consul's investigation made known,
proceedings will bo coiiimenced.
Fortunately tbero moro no deaths at tho
hospital yesterday or tb-day, and tho condi
tion of tho 'remaining victims is somewhat
improved, but the death roll will in all prob
ability bo increaseo hj? tho latter part of tho
week, as tho condition of fivo of tho men is
such that they may rally ono day and czplro
the next.
Tho South Side, which for weeks has been
the hot-bed of tho wage-strife, is gradually
recovering its normal condition. Tho Le
high & Wllkcsbarro collieries, us well as
Beaver Brook colliery, wero to resumo work
to-day, but this program has been changed.
Tho Audenricd mines have been tho scone
of much mcchanioal activity owing to tho
water having attalnod a depth of a few feet
on Saturday because of a lack of steam, and
the men refused to furnisli supply coal for
the boilers until everything was settled. On
this account tho fires had to bo dampened,
causing tho steam to gradually lower and
the water to rapidly rise. Tho adjustment
of the difficulty only prevented tho slopo
from being drowned. All tho lokics woro
out yesterday and as many men as could bo
secured replenishing tho stock of buckwheat
coal for tho boilers.
Nothing, as far as is known, has developed
at any of the otlior South Side collieries now
on strlker.but tho prospects of a favorable
settlement have grown brighter during tho
past few days.
. A monster meeting was held last ovening
at McAdoo and It was unanimously decided
to remain idlo to day to attend tho funerals
of somo moro of tho victims. Among theso
is that of Catneriss Plodak, a Polish victim,
who was removed from tho hospital to the
homo of ids brother In McAdoo on tho Sab
bath evening after expiring from tho effects
of his wounds.
Tho fueling among the foreign element is
bitter, and it Is likely that moro than ono
will suffer, as they havo quietly Instituted
a boycott among themselves against those
who have been heard to sanction last Fri
day's work, Several of theso withdrew their
deposits from one of tho banks yesterday,
and it is said that many ef the others will
follow very shortly.
A. J. Van Wickle's collieries ot MJluos
vlllo and Coleraino commenced operations to
day. They woro idle yesterday in order to
give all those who desirod to do so an op
portunity to attend the funerals of the
killed marchers. Perfect harmony now
reigns among tho men employed at those col.
lleries, and tboy, as far as can be learned, aro
anxious to roturn to work,
Cuyle's strippings, at Hazle Mines, which
were idle since Saturday, also resumed opera
tions this morning.
Reports received up to noon to-day show
that the majority of the collieries in this re
gion resumed operations this morning and
have continued operations without any indi
cations of trouble. Everything is approach
ing a normal stago and tho era of excitement
appears to bo ending.
' The funerals of four more victims took
place this morning.
G0BIN WAS DECEIVED.
He Charges That Faith Was Ilroken on
Funoral Arrangements.
Hazleton, Pa., Sept. 14. Hazleton
quivers on the edge of a volcano. At
this writing troops are marching on the
the mines of Coxa Brothers at Eckley,
which nestles in a valley about 18
miles from here. Telegrams to brigade
headquarters late yesterday afternoon
Indicated an alarming1 condition there,
Tha first knowledge of disturbance at
the Coxe collieries reached brigade
headquarters in tha morning, when
General Gobin received a dispatch that
200 miners at Buck Mountain, three
miles from Kckley, had gone on strike
and began to march on the Kckley
mine. Request was made for a de
tachment of the military to avert pos
sible oonfllot, but before the soldiers
could be started off to the scene the au
thorities were reassured by the receipt
of a second telegram to the effect that
the march had been stopped and no
further trouble was feared.
Late in the afternoon a third dlspatoh
changed the situation for the worse. It
said that the march had been resumed
and carried to the Kckley mines, and
that the men there had been forced to
quit work, after rough handling by the
marching men. The City Troop of Phila
delphia, the crack cavalrymen, were In
stantly ordered ta proceed to Kokley.
The news has created consternation
throughout the district and all the eol
ieries are preparing for trouble.
General Gobin has been deluged with
requests for troops, but declares that he
will send none to any point unless an
outbreak really ooours. This is a
measure of precaution to keep the
soldiers mobilized.
The rnlnft purierlntendents. are muili
worried. They accept, the lessen ottered
by the havoc wrought at Gomer Jones'
home the other night, and two have
asked the brigade. commander to plftrp
guards around their houses, which will
be done. The tinmen of the superinten
dents are kept secret.
There Is a sensational story afloat
concerning a conversation overheard on
the streets of Hazleton yesterday, but
It should be accepted with a reserva
tion. Tha story goes that a group of
miners were standing: on a corner when
one was heard to remark: "I've got the
material, but I don't know how to mix
the d stuff. If I did I'd blow them
up tonight."
It Is said that the guards were placed
about the superintendent's houses as a
result of'tjrts.
Yesterday had been regarded as the
turning point of the situation, because
of the prohibition lssijed by General
Gobin against the proposed funeral
demonstration. A compromise was
effected, however, and the day passed
off without disturbance. In the mean
time the Coxe collerles were being
watched with Intense anxiety. It was
known that the 2,000 men employed at
No. 7 had made a demand for a 10 per
cent, increase, which was to be sub
mitted to the operators yesterday, with
the alternative of "strike."
From 5,000 to 7,000 men are employed
at all the collerles, and it was under
stood that such a movement would
.bring them all out. Whether or not the
proposition was formally submitted
could not be learned, because nobody
would talk. The men were all nt work,
but strike talk was rife and a big meet
ing at Stockton had been scheduled for
last night. Thero was a general Im
pression that nothing decisive would be
resolved upon at least before tomorrow,
as today Is pay day, with two weeks'
money coming to tho men. The Coxe
men's grievance is that they are on a
lower scale than that paid by any other
company In the region, but the com
pany store feature does not enter Into
their case.
Another late afternoon report was
that the employes of ex-Congressman
Lelscnrlng's upper Lehigh colliery will
go out on a sympathetic strike. As an
Increase of 10 per cent, was granted on
Saturday to the McAdoo men, they
havo expressed their Intention to return
to work at once, although they do not
expect to remain In more than a day
under the pressure that will be brought
to bear by the other strikers.
General Gobin said yesterday after
noon that tho withdrawal of troops had
not boon considered for n moment.
They will remain on the ground until
the BherlfC Is convinced that he will be
fully able to cope with any emergency
that may arise. The rumors that mar
tial law had been declared, tho general
said, had been spread by some vicious
person. "There Is martial law only so
far as a state of war exists," he Bald.
"Wo are here solely to assist the sheriff
In maintaining peace and order. Men
can como and go as they please so long
as they behave themselves. If thore Is
the slightest infraction of the peace
which the civic authorities are unable
to handle, then we will render assist
ance, but such condition has not yet
arisen."
The commander added that neither
Sheriff Martin nor any of the deputies
would bo arrested while the troops aro
hero. "I am under his authority," he
said, "and If he Is arrested I must tako
that authority from the deputies. If
the deputies are arrested, what resort
will remain?"
Tho first discord between tho mili
tary and tho strikers occurred yester
day, and General Gobin was angry
about It. Following his order against
tho proposed funeral demonstration,
he arranged for a conference yesterday
morning with the Polish priests who
Ere looking after the cause of the men.
He Impressed them with the necessity
for preventing any show of a military
character, and said he would permit
no uniformed men to participate except
those representing religious societies.
Bands of music, side arms, sticks and
banner? were also prohibited, Tha
prfests promised that nil this would
not bo done, and tho commander, on tho
bther hand, promised to keep all troops
away from the funerals. Somebody
stolo a maroh on the general, how
ever, and, although the latter revoked
the olausu excluding music, thero were
men in line wearing the uniform of tho
Italian army and others carrylngdrawn
sabers. Six of the latter stood In front
of the church during the ceremonies
within. Learning this, the commander
promptly dispatched a staff officer and
a detail of men to the cemetery, but
when they reached there the, services
were over and the mourners had dis
persed. "The priests gave me their sacred
promise that no arms should be carried
nor military uniforms worn," said Gen
eral Gobin. "In moments when a spark
might result In the wholesale loss of
life and property It seems to me that
such things should not be permitted.
If I had the slightest Idea that their
promise wijftld be broken a troop of
cavalry would have been thore within
a few moments," The general added
that he would demand an explanation
from the clergymen.
There was little change In the pro
gram arranged by the miners for the
funerals. There were 12 In all, but two
proceeded from Harwood direct to the
cemetery, without regard to the other
ten, who united in an extensive oortege,
Eight of the bodies lay In the shop of
Undertaker Bontn, in Hazleton, where
they were viewed by a great .crowd
