Representatives of the Three Districts Summoned to Gather at Hazleton on August 27. After a three days' mooting, held at Hazleton, which ended on Saturday af ternoon, the executive boards of Dis tricts 1, 7 and 9, of the United Mine Workers of America, adjourned without coming to any decisive understanding on the matters which mads their meet ing necessary. In fact, the matters discussed at the meeting of the executive boards' mem bers were deemed so important that a general convention was considered nec essary, before final action should be taken. The call for this convention has boon issued. It will be held on August 27, at Hazleton, providing that city can demonstrate its ability to provide for and accommodate tho number of dele gates who will attend. Representatives from every local union of the United Mine Workers in the an thracite region will be present. It Is oxpectod that no less than 1,000 men will attend the convention. The members of the executive boards have not made public the causes or the questions which make the convention necessary, but it is understood that the recent card day troubles and the ill feeling engendered by the recent strike of the iiromon are among the number. Tho miners desire the public to un derstand that tho convention is not called for tho purpose of declaring a strike, or considering such action. Tho organization is especially desirious of avoiding making any move at this timo which would result in a suspension of work, and no trouble on that score need be feared, unless those corporations which are ruled by men whose prejudice against labor unions Is so bitter that they will insist on continuing their dis criminating ami aggravating methods, in violation of the agreement made last April and at other times. Smith Rebuked by Kudlick. Alex. Allen, Sr., of Drifton, was before Squire Shovlin on Saturday to answer a charge of assault and battery, preferred by Bernard McLaughlin, Jr., of town. The prosecutor claimed that while on his way home from Jcddo he met Allen in Drifton and was struck by him without provocation. The defend ant claimed the blow was an acci dental one, given while getting out of the way of the wheel ridden by McLaugh lin. Neither side had any witnesses and the justice discharged the case. An amusing incident occurred during Nonstable Welsh's visit to Drifton to arrest Mr. Allen. While on bis way to Freeland with thejirisoner they passed the main office of Coxe Bros. Sc Co. Mr. Allen asked and received permission from the constable to notify Superinten dent Smith of his arrest. When tho pompous official heard of the alTair ho gave one of his bi-weekly exhibitions of ignorance. He demanded that, ho be shown the warrant, claimed that tho document was not legally served on Mr. Allen and insisted that he be told before whom the hearing would take place. Failing to bulldoze the constable, he contended that tho prisoner could not bo taken to Freeland until ho had his dinner. Just as he was about reaching tho limit of his interference with tho law, Superintendent Kudlick arrived on tho scene and promptly rebuked Smith for his foolishness, after which the officer and Mr. Allen proceeded on their way to Squire Shovlin's office.
