SAYS MINERS MUST GIVE IN Baer Claims It Is the Only Way to End Strike. P. & R. President Assumes the Role of a Jester When Interviewed Yesterday on Prospects of Settlement. "The operators are lying low and biding the time when the miners will come to their senses and resume work," said President Baer, of the Philadelphia and Reading Railway Company, In New York yesterday. He was asked about the visit he received In Philadelphia from Father Curran, of Wllkesbarre. "Father Curran had no proposition for a settlement to submit to me," said President Baer. "llow could he? He is in no wise a factor In the strlko. Father Curran asked me If there was no way in which the trouble could be settled. I told him there was one way —namely, that the miners return to work ana behave themselves. Our In terview was very pleasant, but I cannot help thinking that it would be better for all concerned if outsiders kept their hands off and left us to settle this diffi culty with the men." "If a general strike should be declar ed, and the strike orders generally obey ed," he was asked, "In what manner would that Influence the situation in the anthracite region?" "In no manner whatever," was the roply. "But would not a general strike tend to tie up the industries of the country?" "I don't know. You haven't noticed the sky falling down, have you?" Iu roply to a question whether there was any Intention on the part of the operators to resume operations in the near future with non-union men Presi dent Baer jestingly replied: "Oh, the dog days will soon bo over now. 1 don't blame people for not wanting to work hard those hot days. Later on it will be cooler, and then per haps tho miners will And It more pleas ant to work." Father Curran has not gone to Now York, nor Is It believed that he will. The action of President Baer in telling him that tho operators would not listen to anything from him and that nothing he could say would alter tho situation has deterred Father Curran from going to Now York. Presidont Fowler, of tho Ontario and Western Railroad, said yesterday: "Under no circumstances will there be any conference with the minors or any settlement of tho strlko, or any conces sions. I wish to reiterate that under no circumstances will the strike bo sottled, except by unconditional surrender of the men. No matter what happens, nothing can change tho situation." PLACED UNDER BAIL. Charles Jacquot was arrested Wednes day evening by Constable Ziegler on a warraut Issued by Alderman Heiden rieh, of Hazleton, on Information furn ished by John Hodgson, North Centre street. Jacquot is charged with riot and unlawful assembly by Hodgson, who is a Drlfton shop employe. Tho accused waived a hearing and gave ball before Squire Buckley to tho amount of SBOO, Mrs. William Jenkins furnishing the security. Frank Gatskl and Ben Brown, of Harwood, were placed under SIOO bail each yesterday by Alderman Ileiden rlch, on tho charge of calling Mrs. I'iioma Acker a "scab." There will be no moro marches by strikers in the Panther Creek valley, this being the determination of tho strik ers themselves. On the charge of as sault and battery and rioting last week, nine men wero held underssoo ball each at Lansford yesterday. .MISCELLANEOUS NOTES. The delegates of District 7 to the national convention at Indianopolis passed through hereon tho 0.34 o'clock Lehigh Valley train last evening. They expect to reach their destination by 6 o'clock this evenlug. The convention opens tomorrow at 10 a. m. and tho dele gates expect to 11 'ish their work bofore Saturday night. Tho Reading Company paid Its rog ular employes on Monday and granted a 10 per cent Increase to all who re mained at work during tho present strike. Tho Increase was not given to the special officers and workmen Im ported Into the district. The weekly meeting of the railroad presidents was held yesterday In New York, but no Information was given out by those who attended. Upper Lehigh has resumed Its normal FREELAND, PA., WEDNESDAY, JULY 10, 1902, quietness, and the excitement occasion ed by the violence committed at the Hoffman home Is gradually dying out. The Hoffmans have returned from Eck ley, to which town they ran after es caping from their house, and the Upper Lehigh Company will recompense them for the loss sustalnod by the destruction of their furniture. No arrests have yet been made in connection with this affair, but it is reliably reported that warrants bavo been Issued at Hazloton for parties suspected of having a hand In the work. An effigy Is hanging at the corner of Adams and Carbon streets. No one seems to know how it came thoro or what It represents. It is supposed, however, that it is Intended to reflect on two of Adams street's residents who went Into Drlfton stockado to work at 1 o'clock Monday morning. The work of picketing the roads lead ing from Freeland to Drlfton Is carried on every morning from 4 to 7 o'clock. Sheriff Jacobs was an interested spec tator twice this weok, but found noth ing doing to warrant interference by him. District Treasurer Henry 11111 has been placed in charge of the affairs of District 7 during the absonco of the other district officers, and all matters requiring Immediate consideration will be attended to by him. Tko question of suspending the duos of tboir members until the strike Is over is being discussed In several local bene ficial societies. ARRESTED THIS MORNING. Daniel Mulrauey, of South Ridgo street, was arrested this morning by Deputy Sheriff Isaac Eckert on a war rant sworn out at Hazleton on Informa tion furnished by Albam VVasmer, of Front street, a civil englnoor employed by Coxe Bros. & Co. The charge is as sault and battery and is alleged to have been committed on July 1. Mulraney waived a hearing by fur nishing S2OO bail before Squire Shovlin to answer the charge in court, Hugh M. Bresllu becoming his bondsman. Public Schools Still Open. The public schools In Fittston town ship are still in full blast. It will be remembered that the teachers, during last winter, wont out on strike be cause they did not receive their pay. They remained out uearly two months, when arbitration and promises of pay brought them back to work. Then an other obstacle loomed up in the shape of the law, that no state appropriation shall be given to any school district un less the schools have been kept open in said district for at least seven months. Fittston township stood in a fair way of losing the appropriation, as the schools were not open the required number of months, due to the teachers' strike. Theroforo the teachers aro at present at work making up lost time in order to secure the appropriation from which their back salaries are to be paid. No Meeting of Council. Owing to the absence of A. J. Ma loney, representative of the VVelsbach Light Company, no meeting of the borough council was held on Monday evening. Nine members wore present, but the majority felt that without Mr. Malonoy or a proposition from him tho council could uot make any progress in settling tho light question. The proposed test of the Welsbach light, which was to be given the same evening, was postponed for the same reason. Mr. Maloney's absence was said to bo caused by tho dangerous liluess of a young daughter at the family home in Philadelphia. Died Very Suddenly. Edward Ilinklo, agod 73 yoars, one of the oldest rosidonts of Butler township, died at Ilazloton hospital yosterday. The decoased was admitted to tho insti tution ten days ago, suffering from a broken log. The fracture was reduced and the leg placed in a plaster paris cast. He was doing nicely and up to twenty minutes before his death was apparently in excellent health. Death is supposed to have been duo to heart disease. Mr. Hinkle is survived by a wife and several children, among them being Mrs. Albert Snydor, wife of the Butler township school director. D. S. & S. Shops at Roan. From the Hazleton Sentinel. It is said that In a very short time the D. S. & S. Railroad Company will begin to remove their shops and round houses from Drlfton to Roan Yards. This was tho original intention when the road was built, but for some time there has not been anything heard of tho matter. The company has an excellent location at Roan for their property, and the trouble that has been experienced lately in Drlfton is given as a reason for the decision being reached to move. STRIKE FUNDS. Amonnt Contributed In 1887-88 Contest. Miners Will Fight If Given Relief. Inasmuch as tho raising of a fund for the striking miners is now being con sidered by labor leaders it Is worth re calling the amount contributed to the Lebigh region miners during tho six months' strike of 1887-88. The total receipts of financial contributions to the miners from labor unions and Individ uals, exclusive of the amount expended directly from the treasuries of local assemblies attached to District Assembly 87, K. of L., under whose auspices the strike was conducted, were $133,609.06. The amount disbursed for relief and ex penses was $133,630.14. . D. M. Evans was the treasurer of the relief committee and expended $ll.OB moro than he received. In addition to this deficit, bills were contracted by tho relief committee with merchants and others In Freeland, Ilazleton, Lansford and other towns to the amouut of $5,567.72, which brought the total amount expended to $139,187.86. Tho strike of 1887-88 was conducted through a period of a year, from Septem ber to March, when tho demand for relief became very pressing, and the figures given above are presented to show how far a small amount, compara tively speaking, will go wheu tho men on strike are determined to hold out and win. The Lehigh rogion strike brought suffering to many families, but there was no starvation reported nor did actual want appear without being promptly alleviated. If, then, loss than $140,000 could sup port the 14,000 miners and their families who struck in 1887 for six months, or, In other words, If each family averaged less than $lO for the period, tho propos ed strike fund of a million and a half a month, which would be less than $1 per month from tho members of the labor unions of America, would give the 140,000 men now on striko a monthly allowance greater than tho avorage Lehigh striker's family received while tho 1887-88 striko lasted. Should tho labor leaders of the coun try decide to assess tho members of their respective organizations and col lect a monthly fund of one and one-half million dollars for tho anthracite min ors, as has been proposed and Is likely, operators and others may rest assured that tho strike will not end as soon as very many are inclined to predict. Tho railroad presidents may even succeed in gathering sufficient miners who are tiring of the struggle to open some of their collieries, nevertheless there is nothing In tho situation to warrant a general break from tho union ranks while financial relief is In sight. Tho minor is proverbially a fighter, due, probably, to tho conditions which surround most of them in obtaining their rights from their employers, and knowing that much depends upon hiui In the present contest, he can bo expect ed to uphold bis reputation and ask for no quarter until concessions are offered or necessity compels him to humble before those who threw down the guage of battlo. Thorofore, when the expected finan cial assistance arrives, Interested parties may with good reason place tho date for the striko's ending at a day so far dis tant that Is not worth considering at tho present stage of this gigantic struggle. ROUND THE REGION John Burke and Daniol Rollly, of Wllkesbarre, who wont on the mountain for huckleberries yesterday morning, sat down on tho Lehigh Valley tracks to rest and fell asleep. A passenger train dashed around a curve and the men wero struck. Reilly was rolled down the embankment and badly injured. Burke's head was so badly crushed that he dlod. Another street car strike Is threaten ed in Scranton. Tho cause is tho com pany's interpretation of tho agreement that was arrived at on April 7, when the six months' striko came to an end. Genoral Manager Slllman was informed yesterday by a committee of the mon that unless he reverses his Interpreta tion by Thursday they will quit work. Charles Grothor and Benjamin Alello, the Monroe county murderers and jail breakers, wero sentenced yesterday, the former to be hanged and the latter to twenty years' imprisonment. Grether killed a constable and Alello shot tho man with whom ho boarded. Dospondent ovor tho departure of her husband, who some months ago was taken to the National Military Home at Dayton, Ohio, Mrs. Goorge Duttor com mitted suicido at Wllkesbarro by taking ''Rough on Rats." She was 04 years old. Houses of J. J. Wesley, Frank Mulli gan and S. R. Stevens, at Plains, were destroyed by fire on Monday. Loss SB,OOO.

In tho opinion of Governor Stone, who is at Gettysburg, there will be uo necessity for tho sending of the state troops to tho scono of the coal strike.
