Hugh flalloy, Prop. Corner w.Tut FIREMEN MAY BE BEATEN Members of U. M. W. of A. Mast Resume Work. Friction Between Labor Or ganizations May Result In Defeating the Strikers. Conference Being Held, The firemen received what* will pro bably be the death blow to the strike yesterday afternoon, when the United Mine Workers' executive committee of District No. 1 ordered all firemen who are members of the United Mine Work ers to return to work. President Mullahy of the striking fire men last evening formally asked the United Mine Workers, through Presi dent Nicholas, of the First District, to go out on a sympathy strike. Nichols could not give a definite answer, but a meeting has been arranged by Presi dents Duffy, of District No. Fa hoy, of District No. 7, and Nichols, of No. i, with Mullahy, of the firemen, at Hazle ton today. The order of the executive board will probably so affect the national officers of the Coal Hoisting Engineers' Union and the International Association of Stationary Engineers that they may refuse the permission desired by the men to go on strike. Jt will prevent 90 per cent of the firemen in the Scranton dis trict from going on strike, and it is ex pected to so affect the firemen of the Mount Carmel and theShamokin region, who are oadered to strike tomorrow. In the Lehigh, Scranton. Shatnokin and Mount Carmel regions the firemen belong to the United Mine Workers, and it is only in the Wilkesbarre district they have an organization of their own. There has been friction between the union mine workers and the firemen as a class ever since last fall. At that time the firemen and engineers refused to desert the pumps, and therq was ill feeling. When the strike was ended they, however, shared in the 10 per cent increase won by the striking mine workers and this was the cause of ad ditional ill fooling. Most of the firemen then, having practical illustrations of the advantages of organization joined the United Mine Workers, but those in the Wyoming valley became members of the National Association of Stationary Firemen, thinking they would get more benefits as a separate organization. The officials of the striking firemen say they will now get the firemen who are ordered back to desert the United Mine Workers and join the Firemen's Union. Fully 00 per cent of the firemen who belong to tin; Miners' Union in the Scranton district have refused to join the strike and not one is on strike in the lower and middle coal regions. * It was expected by the strikers that the Mine Workers would refuse to go to work with non-union men in the boiler room, but they not only worked but al lowed some members of their own union to take the strikers' places in the boiler room and help the bosses and clerks em ployed there.

Byrne, of Philadelphia, who for fourteen years was a letter carrier In that city, is spending a few weeks in Freeland for the benefit of his health. Mr. Byrne is well posted on the system of United States mail delivery in the cities and towns, and at the request of several people here In; has consented to give Freeland citizens an opportunity to take advantage of a law passed a few years ago by congress. This law gives to towns not having the population required to claim free delivery the priv ilege of engaging a carrier to deliver the mail from houso to house within the limits of the town. The law provides compensation for the carrier at a rate of from one-half to one cent a letter or postal card, all papers and circulars to be delivered free. Mr. Byrne lias agreed to give Free land the, benefit of this law if asufficient amount of patronage can be assured, and will charge the law's minumum rate, viz., one-half cent per letter or postal card, all other mail to be delivered free. This system is generally the lirst step taken by towns to secure free delivery service of all mail, and if the business people and others will assist tlio move ment it will prove a great saving of time, and will reflect considerable credit on the town. Drifton Shop Strike. Nate Shaffer, a son of Mine Foreman Ben Shaffer, is one of the Drifton shop strikers, and has been chosen as the latest target for the malice of Coxe Bros. Si. Co. The father lias been noti fied that he must drive his son from Drifton or Coxe Bros, it Co. will dis pense with Mr. Shaffer's services. The contemptible brutality exhibited by the Drifton corporation since the shop strike begun is arousing widespread indignation and reflects anything but favorably upon the stockholders who apparently condone this inhumanity. The strikers are still holding out for what they believe is right aud no breaks iu the ranks have been made. After scouring the state from end to end the. company has secured the services of half a dozen men to take strikers' places. No new work and no repairs have yet been turned out of the shop, which is sufficient proof that the new men are not skilled workers. Kxcumion to Kxpnnition.
