TROOPS ARE NOT NEEDED Substance of Governor's Answer to Sheriff. Chief Officer of Carbon County Makes Application for the Militia and Is Refus ed by the State's Executive. Sheriff J. 11. Gombort, of Carbon county, yosterday applied to Governor Stone for troops to suppress disorders in the mining regions of that county. Governor Stone replied as follows: "Your telegram of today stating that strikers are gathering in largo mobs at Lansford and Summit Hill, in this county, and citizens are attacked and beaten and In danger of their lives and that you find that you are unable to pre serve order and protect the eitlzens and therefore must call on me for troops re ceived. The law under which the Na tional Guard Is called out does not justi fy action under the circumstances and conditions which you recite. The Na tional Guard are not police officers. These conditions are entirely within your own province and with tho aid at your hand you ought to overcome tho difficulty without the use of state troops. "If there is a condition of riot, mob or insurrection which tho civil authori ties are unable to suppress the governor will not hesitate to send troops, but under no circumstances will he do so unless tho civil authority is exhausted after reasonable effort on the part of tho sheriff and the protection of life and property demands it." Representing a committee of Carbon county citizens, George M. Davis, T. M. Whildin and John E. Lauer, of Lans ford, called upon the governor yestorday afternoon and explained the situation at Lansford and Summit Hill. The visitors said that the burgesses of these boroughs and the sheriff iiad exhausted their powors in trying to preserve order and that mob rule prevailed in both towns. The visitors also stated that tho trouble was daily becoming worse and that It was a question of only a short time when it would bo necessary to send troops Into tho county to preserve order and protect property. The governor promised to keep in touch with the situation and explained that if he realized that the presence of troops was necessary to maintain order ho would not hesitato to order out tho militia. NO STRIKE OK SOFT COAL MINERS. It has developed that tho presidents of tho coal-carrying companies are very much worried over the national conven tion of miners, which will bo hold in Indianapolis on July 17. The operators would much profer that the convention would order a strike of the 300,000 soft coal miners than do what it is said John Mitchell proposes to bring about when tho convention is held. According to the reports it is boliovod that Mitchell will do everything in his power to prevent tho calling out of the soft coal men, but instead will endeavor to bring about the addition of a resolu tion taxing each of the 300,000 soft coal A Generation Ago fzM, coffee could only be t-SSJI bought in bulk.

President Mitchell's plan 9 are to leave VVllkesbarre on Saturday for the West and spend Sunday in Chicago. On Mon day he will address a meeting of the longshoremen of Michigan, who handle much of the coal shipped by the lakes, and whose aid in the event of a national minors' strike would bo of much benefit. On Tuesday ho will go to ludianapolis to prepare for tho convention. The four coal guards, Thomas O'Brien, Edward 11.

Today's Philadelphia Press says: "Firemen and engineers are In de mand throughout the anthracite region, but no more men are needed there for police duty about tho mines. Orders to this effect were received yesterday at several of tho agenclos in this city, which have been sending on amateur policemen. Only skilled firemen and otiglneers are wanted now. "Twenty-five men returned yo9torday from tho vicinity of Hazleton, where they had been protecting tho property of tho operators. They reported that they had been discharged, as It was found that their services were no longer needed as policemen, and they refused to work as firemen." Socialists Hold Rally. A mass meeting held yesterday after noon at Kroll's hall, under the auspices of the Socialist party, was well attended by striking miners and people of town. Tho principal speaker was John Collins, of Chicago, who has boon at work for a week past in this region organizing clubs of tho party. Mr. Collins aroused considerable enthusiasm by his presen tation of the wrongs endured by tho working people and apparently made many converts to socialism. An address In the Slavonian language was dollvored by Andrew Matti, of Stockton, vice president of District 7, U. M. W., and one in Italian by Organi zer DiScinni. Charles Jacquot, president of tho Cen tral Labor Council of Freeland and Vicinity, was chairman of tho meeting. . Held On to the Snake. Miss Helen Luknns, a young resident of Mt. Csrmol, wont out with a party of six on the mountain yesterday afternoon to gather borrios. While sbo was lean log over a bush, shif unconsciously grabbod a largo rattlosnake. She was paralyzed with fright, aod could not loosen her hold on tho reptile. Her screams attracted tho attention of John Southwood, a member of the party, who reached her side just as tho rattler was about to strike its fangs Into her flesh. Grabbing tho snake by the back of tho neck, and forcing it upon a stone, he crushed its bead with his foot Into a shapeless mass. Tho young woman fainted from fright. The snako had eight rattles. Over 300 Miners Perish. About 300 minors aro bolievod to have lost their lives yesterday by an explo sion of fire damp in a mine of the Cam bria Stool Company at Johnstown. Six hundred mon wore at work in the mine when the explosion occurred. Not more than 300 of these reached the surface in safety, and there is little hope than any of the others will survive. A party of mon attempted to reacli the the entomb ed miners immediately after tho disaster occurred, but they wero overcome by gases and several of them perished. Thereafter systematic efforts wore made to enter tho mine, but it is believed the bodies cannot be reached until this evening. Carpenters' Officers.

Carmel Emergency hospital, having contracted tho disease whiln administering tho holy rites to a dying boy. The priest was called on his errand of mercy two weeks ago, Theo dore Mitti 11s being near death. The priest blessed tho boy, who miraculously recovered after all had given up hope. A branch of the Citlzons' Alliance was organized at Hazleton Wednesday even ing. Tho society's alleged purpose is to uphold tho law and prosecute offenders, but the labor leaders claim it is nothing more than an adjunct of the Coal trust and is working indirectly to defeat tho striking minors. Branches have been organized at Scranton and Wllkusbarro. A detail of officers surrounded the res idence of August Reitz at Sbamokin and arrested Reitz and George Ross, who wore in bed. They wero sent to jail on the charge of robbing local establishments and a clothing store in Montoursvillo. Much stolen booty was found in the houso and in a mine drift near tho Cameron colliery.

Mine Bureau's Annual Report. Tho report of James E. Roderick, of Hazleton, chief of the State Bureau of Mines uud Mining, for 1901 has been made public. It says tho occupation of the miner and his laborer is "extra hazardous," consequently they should be especially well paid for their labor ious and dangerous calling. Tho past year was the most prosper ous for all concerned in the mining of coal of any year for tho la9t quarter of a century. The coal, tho report says, was in great demand and brought a fair price, which enabled tho operators to pay their employes fair wages and' to give them more steady ouipioyment than was the case for a number of years. In tho opinion of Mr. Roderick the dally production of anthracite has reached its maximum. The production of anthracite coal was 59,905,951 tons, an Increase of 8,G88,G33 over 1900. The bituminous mines pro duced 80,914,230 tons, an increase of 1,595,874. Tho average number of days worked in tho anthracite fields was 194.5, an Increase of 23.5 over tho pre vious year. Tho bituminous mines worked an average of 210.25 days, a docreaso of 2.75 days. In tho production of anthracite, 513 persons lost their lives, an increase of 108. There were 301 fatalities in the bituminous mines, an increase of 39. Tho number of employes in and about the anthracite mines is 147,051, and in the bituminous mines 117,602. Mr. Roderick suggosts that souiothlng bo done to relievo tho distress resulting annually in tho coal fields by reason of the large number of fatalities, leaving many families destitute. He expresses himself as greatly impressed with tho need of au institution whoro the young men crippled in tho mines can bo educated and trained in suitable oc cupations that will enable them to earn a respectable living.
