STRIKING MINERS MASSACRED AT LATTIMER.
Sheriff Martin's Gang of Deputies Fired Upon a Body of Harwood Strikers on Friday
Afternoon, Killing 22 Men and Wounding Over 40 Others,
A score of men were deliberately mur
dered on tho public highway near Latti
mer on Friday afternoon by one of tho
band's of armed thugs which havo been
parading the region for a week past.
Twice as many were seriously wounded
in tho slaughter. Tho band was under
tho personal direction of Sheriff Martin,
and* consisted of seventy unprincipled
and cowardly assassins who had been
sworn in as deputies by that official.
The dead and injured were striking
miners from Harwood collieries and all
wore foreigners.
In consequence of tho sheriff's inabil
ity to kill off more than a score a day,
Governor Hastings has granted the re
quest of the operators to send tho Na
tional Guards here, and tho entire Third
Brigade, consisting of 3,000 troops, is
now quartered in the Lehigh region,
fully prepared and under instructions to
exterminate all who dare to seek re
dress front tho conditions forced upon
thein by the now blood-stained corpora
tions of this district.
Friday's massacre was tho result of a
deliberate laid plot, hatched early last,
week in the private oilices of the coai
corporations of this region, to aggravate
the striking miners of the South Side and
entice them to commit some overt act
which could be used as a pretext to call
out the state militia: and then, with the
citizen soldiery of the state behind thorn,
the coal corporations could reassert their
long undisputed title of supreme master
of every living being in their territory.
Sheriff Martin was used as a too!, and
apparently not an unwilling one, to
carry out this murderous scheme. He
readily agreed to use his high office to
further tho nefarious work, by swearing
}u as deputies, and arming them with
Winchester rilies, hordes of tho lowest
and basest specimens of human nature
' that the corporations could gather for
the purpose; and, when enough of these
could not be found, the Drifton com
panies placed at liis disposal all of their
employes who lacked the necessary man
hood and human spirit to refuse to sully
> their characters by engaging in such an
unworthy cause.
No far not a cents worth of property
had been harmed, not a drop of blood
had been shed. The South Side miners,
taunted by the false promises of confer
ences made by Superintendent Lawall.
another party to the plot, had behaved
admirably and had been successfully in
ducing th employes at other collieries
to join them in demanding living wages;
tho sentiment of the region was with
the men; their peaceful methods and or
derly conduct were winning them
friends.
Then came the armed thugs known as
deputies. With thoir glittering guns
they were carted on special trains from
mine to mine, meeting the marching
miners whenever possible and barring
tho men's passage on the public high
ways. Sometimes they were led by
Sheriff Martin, sometimes by worse. At
all times they were given to understand
that a body of strikers constituted legit
imate prey (or their passions, and that
only the shadow of an excuse was neod
ed to legalize their killing.
Agents of the corporations daily cir
culated among the deputies, sowing sen
timent* of murdor, and in the warped
hearts of the gunners those found fer
tile soil. The.expectations of being able
to prove how well they could kill were
gloated over time after time, until the
desire to take human life was common
ly expressed among them.
Notwithstanding that the great ma
jority of the strikers were of tha foreign
element —Hungarians, Italians and Holes
—they showed their respect for local and
stato laws on several occasions, and the
edicts of the authorities were obeyed
with an alarcity that angered those who
confronted them with nervous fingers
upon their Winchester triggers, waiting
impatiently for an excuse to pour their
deadly loads iuto half-starved creatures.
On Friday afternoon at 3.15 o'clock
the tension became too strong to resist.
The opportunity to satiate their blood
thirsty instinct was too great. They
fired. For three minutes, while they
emptied their repeaters, these paid as
sassins literally bathed in human blood,
each coolly picking out his victims and
sending souls to the great beyond.
The result appaled the entire commu
nity; some of the murderers themselves,
now that their braggadocio spirit has
• been weakened by the tremendous wave,
of indignation which swept over the re
gion, express sorrow for their crime.
But this is not enough. Already a
movement has been started to prosecute
the thugs, including the sheriff, for this
unnecessary and inexcusable sacrifice
of life and blood.
Pardee's collieries at Lattimer were
working on Friday. The same firm's
employes at Harwood were Idle for a few
days previous at tho request of men
from other mines. The Harwood men
were on their way to Lattimer to induce
the latter employes to quit work. Out
side the town, on the Hazlo township
road, tho strikers wore met by seventy
deputies. They were formed in three
companies, commanded by Thomas Ilall,
an employe of Pardee's; E. A. Hess, of
the Lehigh Traction Company, and
Samuel Price, a contractor and builder
of breakers.
Sheriff Martin was on the scone and
had charge over all. As the strikers
advanced, he stepped to one side. He
began a parley with the men, read the
riot act and tho crowd halted. They
told him their mission was a peaceful
one, that they intended no harm to
property or person. He insisted they
were violating the law, and, drawing his
revolver, reached out to arrest one of
those who had questioned his authority
to prevent men from marching on Hazlo
township road.
ORDERED TO SHOOT.
Suddenly there was some confusion in
the ranks of the strikers. Those in
front were preparing to turn back,
those behind pressed forward to learn
the cause of the delay. Who gave the
command to fire is not now known.
While running home, in passing through
Freeland, Martin stated emphatically
he did not; later he says he did.
However, some one spoko the word,
and seventy guns were raised like a
flash; without a word of warning of any
kind the Winchesters cracked; men
dropped before the hurricano of lead
like leaves from a withering tree. Not
in all history has the slaughter, com
mitted in the name of the law, a paral
lel.
The uninjured turned to flee—down
the road, through the woods, anywhere
from the murderers. Hut they could
not escapo the deadly aim of the depu
ties. The living, racing-for-life targets
were banged at again and again while!
one remained in sight.
LIKE A BATTLE-FIELD.
Eleven dead bodies laid on the field;
over forty were seriously wounded,
eleven of whom havo sinco breathed
their last and many more are still in
danger. All tho dead and injured are
non-English-speaking men. Many are
married and leave large families. All
resided at Harwood or Cranberry. Not
a weapon was found on any of the
bodies of the dead or injured, nor was
any seen in the strikers' ranks.
The injured were quickly taken to
liazleton hospital, whore they were at
tended by medical men and clergymen.
An examination of the dead and wound
ed showed that over three-fourths of the
victims were struck by the bullots in the
back or side, which is conclusive proof
that the men wore retreating when most
of tho firing was done.
Charles Treiblo, of Lattimer, a deputy,
was shot in the arm by one of his com
panions, the ball being one of the kind
used in the guns they carried.
None of the deputies engaged there
reside in Freeland or vicinity. The
crowd from Coxe's works were stationed
that day near Heaver Meadow.
IN DIG N A TION M KKTINGB.
It took but a short time for the news
of the awful carnage to traverse the
region. In tho strike towns on the
South Side the feeling was intense.
Groups that increased in size until they
became mobs thronged the streets of
the mining villages. The desire to im
mediately avenge tho deaths of their
fellow-strikers was predominant in all
this gatherings, but this was impossible,
the deputies having mysteriously disap
peared and co.vcrpd their bloody trail.
Cooler counsel finally prevailed and the
ovoning and night passod off with noth
ing more serious than wild rumors.
At liazleton the citizens were thor
oughly worked up by the sight of the
loads of victims taken to the hospital.
An indignation meeting was held and
and strong resolutions passed, in which
the prosecution of the sheriff and his
deputies was demanded in vigorous lan
guage and tho anticipated sending of
troops was protested against.
The meeting was addressed by Rev. C.
A. Npaulding, John J. Fahey, of l4otts
vllle, and by {Slavonian, Polish and
German speakers.
The indignation in Freeland at the
massacre only four miles away was also
great. The deputies who murdered, as
well as those who went forth on that
mission, w.ere severely condemned, and
the instigators of tjie despicable plot to
kill the strikers were not omitted when
censure was talked.
Another indignation meeting held
at liazleton Saturday evening. Over
4,000 people assembled in the open air
south of tho city to again condemn the
FREELAND, PA, MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 13, 1397,
i murderers. Matthew Long presided and
1 addresses were made by Father Stas and
I Rev. Ilouscr, of Freeland; the Polish
i | and Slavonian priests and ministers of
| liazleton; John Shea, of Wilkesbarre;
1 ( Organizer Fahey, of Pottsville, and many
others.
I The outcome was the inauguration of
a movement to prosecute all who took
an activo part in tho assassinations.
Offers of contributions to defray the ex
penses were received from the larger
cities and a fund lias buen started to
carry out the decision.
CALLS SIADE FOR TROOPS.
In the meantime tho shoriff had gone
to Wilkesbarre and telegraphed the gov
ernor for troops. President Stearns, of
the Drifton companies, supplemented
tho demand with a similar message
from his home in Wilkesbarre. Later
in the evening a call for the militia was
made in a dispatch sent from liazleton
signed by the following: Alvin Markle,
Edwin Hullock, Israel Pardee, Major
McClellan, C. W. Kline, Geo. 11. Trout
man. J. C. Hayden, Frank Pardee, John
Markle, Henry Dryfoos, Luther C.
Smith, John H. Price, Dr. W. C. Gayley,
N. C. Yost, A. W. Lelsenring, A. Barth
olemow and many others.
The governor called into conference
several military officials and at mid
night tho Third Hrigade was ordered
to proceed to liazleton. The First
Hrigade, Philadelphia, was ordered to
place itself in readiness to mobilize.
REGION FULL OF SOLDIERS.
All the Lehigh region, except this
town and vicinity, Is filled with militia,
and there is no reason known for their
presence. The Third Brigade began
arriving Saturday morning at 9 o'clock.
Tho Ninth regiment was first on the
ground, followed shortly by the Eighth,
Thirteenth and Twelfth regiments.
Later tho Governor's Troop came in,
then Hattcry C. Tho City Troop, of the
First Hrigade, arrived at 10 p. m. Satur
day. Hrlgadier-General J. S. Gobin, of
Lebanon, is in command.

At tho annual convention of tho Po
lish National Alliance, in Philadelphia
on Saturday, 81-,00() wore appropriated
to assist in prosecuting tho deputies,
and if this proves insufficient the execu
tive officers are authorized to levy an as
sessment of sr> upon each of the 12,000
members and push the cases until the
full penalty of murder has been meted
out to tho deputies. Peter Jasinski, of
town, represented Freeland in the con
vention.
Offers of services from attorneys in all
parts of the state have been tendered.
Only hero and there can a person bo
found who upholds the deputies'work,
and these, in almost every instanco, are
people who are owned bodily by the coal
corporations and are paid to shout for
the broadcloth anarchists who are mo
rally responsible for tho murders.
FUNERALS OF THE VICTIMS.
Four of the victims wore buried yes
terday ffom Harwood. Services were
held at Harwood Lutheran church and
Rov. Ilouser, of town, and Rev. Npauld
ing officiated. The Slavonian baud and
thousands of people attended.

DRIFTON ITEMS.
The wedding of Philip E. Paul, of
Frecland, and Miss Lizzie Birkbeck, of
town, took place on Thursday evening
as announced in the last issue. Miss
Mary Davis was maid of honor and
Misses Sarali Paul and Mary Birkbeck
were bridesmaids, Evan Paul, of Ber
wick, acting as groomsman. At St.
James'church, where the ceremony was
performed, the bride was given away by
her uncle, James Birkbeck. The recep
tion which followed at the home of the
bride's mother was largely attended and
the happy couple received many con
gratulations.
It can be truthfully asserted that dur
ing last week's trouble neither compul
sion nor coercion was used among the
employes horn in gathering men to act
as deputies tu the sheriiT. Some were
asked to go, others volunteered, but
none were compelled to shoulder a gun.
This statement is not signed by any ofli
eial of the Drifton companies, neverthe
less it is as reliable as if it were. The
men who marched forth as deputies are
alone entitled to all the glory or all the
shame attached to the act.
While assisting to erect a battery in
No. 2 mines on Saturday John Gillespie
was caught under a falling prop and his
right leg was broken. The injured man
is at his home.
Every precaution Is being taken to
prevent the spread of diphtheria, a few
cases of which are said to exist in town.
UPPER LEHIGH NOTES.
The collieries hero shut down this
morning. When the employes assem
bled for work at the different slopes the
indignation at the Lattimer massacre
was so great that the men decided unan
imously to return home and attend

ian and Polish employes heartily en
dorsed the move, and the works came
to a sudden stop.
