NO ATTEMPT MAGE TO WORK Opsrators Deny That They Are Ready to Resume. Yesterday's Heavy Rains Did Much Damage to Collier ies in This Vicinity and Several Are Floodod. The rumors that have been current Tor a few days past that the operators would uiake an attempt to resume opera tions this week are denied by the general superintendents and others in charge of the workings. In this vicinity Coxe Bros. & Co., it was said, would make an effort to mine coal tomorrow. The report had it that their colliery whistles will blow for work this evening. In conversation with a Drifton official tliis morning the Tribune was assured that the company has no intention to resume for the present. Whether these denials are truo or false, tiino and the operators alone can tell. It is certain, however, that sev eral of the mines are now in no condi tion for miners to enter. Yesterday's Incessant rains, which fell steadily from early morning until night, did much damage to the surrounding workings, and if the owners had any intention to resume this week it was soon dispelled, as the inexperienced men who are at the pumps were unable to keep out tho water which flowed In. The strikers, apparently, were deter mined to not bo caught napping, and this morning found largo bodies of them on all roads leading to collieries where non-unionists are at work. Upper Lehigh boiler-houses wore visit ed at an early hour, and when tho crowd departed the men who were em ployed at the boilers and pumps were missing and did not return for several hours. It is said that an altercation between strikers and a man omployed on the new trolley road in the valley took place on Butler hill. no A 1)8 TO DRIFTON GUARDED. All roads leading to Drifton collieries were strongly guarded from 4 to 7 o'clock, and only those whom the strikers had agreed to permit work passed the picket lines. Several of those who, when stopped and asked to go home, agreed to do so, but tried to reach their destination via circuitous routes. After finding that the strikers' line extended from Butler hill to Sandy Run- the effort to get to Drifton before 7 a in. was abandoned. On South Itidge street, below the bor ough lino, fourteen coal and iron police were stationed to escort men to Drifton, but their task was an easy one, as none but clerks, train-runners and tho D. S. & S. passonger-train crew crossed the line. The police wore the regulation blue uniform and military caps. Each man carried a largo revolver in his loft hip pocket, but did not make any ostenta tious display of tho weapon. They were accompanied by Superintendent John Rehlands, Deputy Sheriff Jacob Zeist loft and three Drifton clerks. Daubach's bakory wagon, en route to the D. S. & S. station with tho dally consignment of bread and cakes for Oneida and Shoppton, was met on South Ridge street, and, under the impression that tho food was destined for tho coal and iron police and workers at Drifton, tho strikers induced the driver to return. SHERIFF JACOHH IN TOWN. Sheriff A. 11. Jacobs, of Ha/.leton, ar rived on tho scene on the first trolley car from Hazleton. Finding many of the pickets lined along the Lehigh Val ley Railroad, and the coal and Iron police, within a few feet of * them on South Ridge street, tho sheriff quickly decided that the two forces should be placed further apart. There were no signs of disorder or trouble, but know ing that the best of feeling does not ex ist between tho police and the pickets the decision of tho sheriff was for the best interests of all concerned. He promptly notiliod tho police to retreat to Coxe addition, as their pres ence at the railroad tracks was unneces sary. Then he not!lied the pickets to return to the borough streets, at the samo time cautioning them against breaking the poace in any manner. Both parties immediately obeyed the officer and the morning's work ended in a victory for the strikers. JUSTICES RECEIVE NOTICES. The justices of the peace of Freehand MISCELLANEOUS ADVERTISEMENTS.

The notices call attention to the au thority of justices of tho peace In dis persing unlawful assemblies and say that since the inception of the present labor difficulties there have been riotous, tumultous and unlawful assemblages of persons, who have intimated employes going to and returning from work, and by reason of their large nunbors have deterred other employes from pursuing their avocation. The justices are then requested to preserve the peace and order within their jurisdiction by dispersing unlawful assemblages and afford to tho employes of tho companies above named protec tion from assaults, threats, etc., and to give protection to their operations. MITCHELL REACHES CHICAGO. President Mitchell yesterday arrived at Chicago and will bo there several days. When asked the object of his visit to Chicago, Mr. Mitchell said he came to settle several questions in dispute in the Illinois coal fields, which had been referred to Commissioner Her man Justi, of the Illinois Operators' Association, and himself. These mat ters, he thought, wonld be disposed of today. Mr. Mitchell will go to Saginaw, Mich., Tuesday, to meet the miners' officials of Michigan and tho operators of that state, with view* to settling the strike, which has been in progress there since last April. President Mitchell denied emphati, cally the story current in some quarters that his visit to Illinois was connected with divorce proceedings to bo brought. His martial relations, he declared, were amicable. Mitchell said he would pros ecute the newspapers which published tho story. CONSPIRACY CHARGED. Warrants were sworn out at Pottsvillo on Saturday by Attorneys John T. Lena ban, of Wilkosbarre, and VV. J. White house aud S. 11. lvaorcher, of Pottsvillo, for the arrest of John J. Hudock, John Ernst, Stephen Drosdick, Edward Mal loy and others, charging them with conspiracy to prevent merchants at Shoppton aud Oneida from soiling goods to Arthur Donahue, a machinist, and Thomas McNamara, a foreman, and other non-union men employed at Coxe Bros. & Co.'s collieries, except at ex orbitant prices. This is said to be tho first of a series of suits against boycotts which are to be brought in the Schuylkill region. MISCELLANEOUS NOTES. Made angry by tho jeers of boys, guards employed at the Glenwood col liery, at Mayfield, fired into tho crowd and wounded John Quinn, who chanced to walk out of a barber shop at the time. Qulnn, who Is 20 years old, is now at Carbondalo hospital with a bullet hole through the left big. Tho shooting took place at 11.30 o'clock Saturday night. Five guards are under arrest. The operators have issued a statement alleging that many of tho strikers are applying for their old places, and that two-thirds of tho colliories could be opened if proper protection could be afforded. The strike leaders say that this Is an effort to frlghtou tho men, but will not succeed. Mrs. William Mitchell, wifo of tho fire boss at No. 11 colliery, Plymouth, who Is working, was fined 5511.25 yester day for firing off a rovolvor. A mob had congregated in front of her resi dence, and she tired two shots from an upper story window, thinking to fright en them away. James Davis, superintendent of the West Piltston Congregational Sunday school, has resigned because the scholars in tho school refused to attend its ses sions, as he is a non-union man em ployed at tho Exeter colliery. James Anderson, a coal and iron policeman, stationed at the Nottingham colliery, Plymouth, accidentally shot himself in the stomach yestorday. He was removed to Wilkesbarro hospital, and small hopes are eutortainod for his recovery. Owing to the small number of em ployes who responded for work this morning, Drifton shops were compelled to close. Joseph Frankol, a liquor dealer at Plymouth, has filed a SIO,OOO damage suit against tho borough for failing to protect him against a boycott resulting from an effigy bung in front of his place of business.
