4 DEPUTIES FIRE STRIKERS Score of Pennsylvania Min- ers Killed and Double the Number Wounded. DEADLY VOLLEY DECIMATES A MOB'S RANKS. Sheriff’s Force Ordered to Shoot When Threatened by Hungarian Colliers. Bullets Follow a Reading of the Riot Act. HAZELTON, Pa., Sept. 10.—The strike | situation reached a terrible crisis on the outskirts uf Latimer this afternoon when 8 band of deputy sheriffs fired inwo 2 mob of miners. The men feli like so many sheep, and the excitement bas been so intense that no accurate figures of dead ana wounded can be obtained. Reports run from fifteen to twenty killed and forty or more wounded. One man, who reached the scene counted thirteen corpses, Four other bodies lie in the mountains between Latimer and Har- leigh. Those who were not injured car- ried their dead and wounded frienas into the woods, and estimates are baffled. Some of those known to be dead are: Mige CuENLOLL, Harwood. >k CuEkA, Harwood. HN £TANISKA, Crystal Ridge. rGE KuLick, Harwood STeve Horrick, Harwood. Among the injured are: George Krese, Harwood, bullets through leg, hip and knee. John Kerlovich, shot 1n neck.

This finished, a low muttering arose | among the foreigners and there was a | slight movement in the mob Perceiving | this, the Sheriff stepped forward toward | them and in a determined tone forbade ! advance. Some one struck the Sbeniff, | and the next moment there was a com- | mand to the deputies to fire. | The guns of the deputies instantly | belchea forth a terrible volley. The report seemed to shake the very mountains and [ a cry of dismay went up from the people. | The strikers were taken entirely by sur- | prise, and as the men topplea and fell over each other, those who remained un- | hurt stampeded. The men went down before the storm of bullets like ten-pins, | and the groans of the dylng and wounded | tilled the air. The deputies seemed to be terror-stricken | at the deadly execation of their guns, and, seeing the living strikers fleeing like wild and others droppinz to the earth, they went to the aid of the unfortunates whom they had brought down. The people of Latimer rushed pellmell to the scene, but the sbrieks of the| wounded dro yned the cries of the sympa- thizing and bhalf-crazed inhabitants. A reporter who soon afterward reached the | scene found the road leading to Latimer filled with groups of frightened Hun- garians. fome surrounded dving com- panions, and others, fearful of pursuir, ciung to the newcomer and begged his protection. 3 At Farley’s hotel there were {wo men lying on the porcb. Both had been shot | in the head. One had three bullets in bim. His groans and appeals foradoctor or death were heartrending. All alonz who were able to leave tLe field of battle scattered themsclves and sougkt the shade of trees for protection, but there was no need of that then. Approaching the place where the shooting occurred people were met wringing their hands and bemoaning the catastrophe. They could not talk in- telligently, and it was with the greatest difficulty tbat any information could be gleaned. Along the bank of the trolley road men lay in every position, some dead, others dying. Three bodies face downward lay along the incline, and others were but a short distance away. On the other side of the road as many more of the bodies lay. The schoolhouse was transformed into a temporary hos- pital and some of the wounded were taken there. The colliery ambulance was sum- moned to the place as soon as possible, into three compa | Breaker. | small figure. the road the wounded men | THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 11, 1897. e UPON and upon its arrival two men, both shot through the legs, were loaded into the wagon, All along the hillside wounded men were found, on tne roadside and in the fielas. Many miners who had been carried to a distance could not be found. As soon as the news of the shooting reached Hazelion there was consterna- | tion. Within ten minutes the streets were bloeked with excited people. The Lehigh Traction Company immediately started a number of extra cars on the Latimer line and ,doctors and clergymen responded premptly. The rush of people to Latimer was so great that the passage | of vehicles along the road was impaired. During the excitement the deputies turned their attention to the wounded and carried many of them to places where they could be more comfortably treated. Martin Roski, an intelligent Hungarian, from Mount Pleasant, who was shot in the arm, was seen by a raporter and gave this version of the affair: “We were going along the road to Lati- mer, and the deputies were lined across | & the road, barring our passage. We tried | to get through them and did not attempt | to hit or molest them, when they fired | upon us. We ran, but they kept on shoot- | ing at us while we ran. It was all their torough another ordeal of the kind fora fortune.” In another interview Sheriff Martin was asked: *“When you met the men were thev on company grounds or the public road?” He replied: “No, they were on the pub- lic road.” “Were they marching toward Lati- mer?” “Yes” “Had they, up to that time, committed any overt act or acted otherwise than peaceably?”’ *No,” “Why, then, did you order the deputizs to fire?’ “Ldid not order the depulies to fire. Some one elss did that. Furst, a single shot and then a voliey. 1 zave no order.” “How many were killed?’ “There were tweive dead when I lelt, and about forty wonnded.” “Were any of your men hurt?"” “One of my deputies was shot through the arm.’’ Sher.ff Martin, when he reached Wilkes- barre, was badly scared. Though he claims to have been brutally assaulted he did not have a mark on his per:on to show he had been-roughly handled.

HARRISBURG, Pa., Sept. 10.—Gover- nor Hastings to-night ordered out the Third Brigade, of which General Gibson is commander, and instructed Gen-ral Schall to hold the First Brigade in readi- ness. The troops wili mobilize at Hazel- ton and are expected to beon the scene before daybreak. Captain A. R. Paxton, U. 8. A., atl- tached to the National Guard, started for Hazleton to-night by direction of the Gov- ernor. Fuperintendent Creighton of the middle division of the Pennsylvania comi- pany was in conference with the execu- tive mansion and arranged for the speedy transportation of the soldiers. The Governor received a copy of the resolutions adopted at a mass-meating to- night at Hazelton urging the Sheriff of Luzerne County to ask the Governor for protection to life and property. The res- olations are signed by Aivin Markle and other prominent citizens of Hazleion. Irving W. Stearns of Wilkesbarre sent a telegram to the Governor that it was ab- solutely necessary that the troops be sent | at once to the strike region to auell the lawlessness. NC CHANGE IN STANDING.

At one meeting, held in Van | Wyckle's Casino, attended by bankers, | coal operators and prominent men, reso- | lutions were adopted calling on Governor | Hastings to send the militia here imme- | diately. At another mass-meeting at- tended by thousands of people the senti- ment was aganst bringing the troops | here, and it is asserted by those that there | will be no necessity for having the depu- | ties here. At e SHERIFF JMAKTIN'S SIORY. Claims He Bas Attacked, but Bears No | Ma of Violence, WILKESBARRE, Pi., Sept. 10.—Sher- | iff Martin srrived home on the 7 o’ clock train irom Hazelton. He was cool and collected. He was met at the train by his | lezal adviser. The two got into a cab and | drove 10 the Courthouse, where they were closeted together for some time. The Sher- iff was reluctant to say whether he tad | given the command to fire, but afterward admitted that he had. The Sheriff's de: tailed siatementis as follows: I heard early this morning that strik- ers were going to the Breaker at Latimer and compel the men there to quit work. Ived to intercept them and, if pos- sible, prevent them from reaching the ne of my depuiies told me that the strikers would be vrobably beavily armed. I got my deputie, seventy in number, to meet at a certain place, | They were all armed. I told them to keep cool under all circumstances. “The trouble began at 3 o’clock. I met the marching colamn. I haited them and read the proclamation. They retused to pay any attention and resumed their march. Then I called to the leader to stop. He ignored my order. I then at- tempted to arrest him. The strikers closed in on me. They acted very viciously, kicking me, koocking me down and trampling upon me. I called upon mv deputies to aid me and they did so, but they were unab'e to accomplish much. “Irealized that something had to be done at once or I would be killed. I called to the deputies to discharge their firearms into the air over the heads of the i strikers, as it might possibly frizghten | them. It was done at once, but it had no effect whatever on the infuriated foreign- ers, who only used me so much rougher and became fiercer and fiercer, They were more like wild beasts thari human beings. “The strikers then made a still bolder move and attempted to surround my entire force of deputies. “I realized thbat the foreigners were a desperate lot, and valued life ata very 1 saw that parleying with such a gang of in uriated men was entirely out of the question, as they were too ex- cited to listen to reason, and that myself | and my ceputies would he killed it we were not rescued or if we did not defend ourselves. Ithen called upon the dep- uties to defend themselves, and shoot if they must to protect our lives or to pro- | teci the property that they had been sent | to guard. *The next second there were a few scat- tered shots fired into the foreigners, and | a moment later the entire force of depu- | ties discharged a solid volley into the crowd. I hated to pive the command to shoot and was awful sorry that I was com- pelled todo :0, but 1 was thera to do my duty and I did it as I best knew how ana as my conscience dictated, as the strikers were violuting the laws of the common- wealth and flatly refused to obey the proclamation that Iread tothem. They insisted on doing violence and disobey.ng the laws. “The entire crowd of foreigners, as soon as the voiley had been fired by my depu- tles, turned and started to retreat. They rush-d off in all directions as fast as they could, taking as many of their dead and wounded with them as they were able to forfeited ihe geme by the score of 9 to 0.

Y., Sept. 10.—The Journal and Advertiser prinis the follow- ing: Charles IX's missal, the velium leaves of whicn had been dipped in a poison as terrible as the one which the Borgias kept in sealed rings, was sold by a book-setler of New York a few days ago to a book-lover, who is also an expert in poisons, He bas analvzed the vellum pages one by one, and says there is no | poson in the leaves of the missal. | It must have evaporated in the centu- ries, for Cnarles IX, who was King of France from 1560 to 1574, received, accord- ing to the chroniclers, a missal which was poisoned, a short time after he had given the signal for the massacre of the Hugue- nots, and it was this misssl he had been reading at a wass in tbe chapel of the Lo uvre the day before his death. He died of remorse, the historians say, but remorse was often a euphemism for poison 1n those days. L ——— Tennis Tournament Ends.

Budiong finally won br the ccore of: 8—6, 1—6, 6—3, 7—9, 6—4 It was the best tennis ever seen in To- ronto. KEATING PILOTS TWO WINNERS Antrima and Anaconda Capture Races at Sacramento. Diawood Beats Klatawah in the Stake for Pacing Youngsters. Betting on State Falr Equine Con~ tests Begins to Grow More Lively. SACRAMENTO, Car, Sept. 10.—Reins- man Tommy Keating, driver of the pacing phenom Searchlight, put in quite a profitable day of it at Agricultural Park with his white satin jacket and blue cap. In demeanor he is quite unostentatious, but as winter draws nigh there are al- ways several cords of wood piled in the shed, that he had sawed during the sum- mer months. In the 3:17 trot this afternoon ke held the ribbons over Antrima, a black mare owned by Higgins Bros. of Montana, and she made but three trips around the circle to annex the purse. Before the first heat was trotted, the mare sold in the field, Dr. Leek being a top-heavy favorite. In the 2:15 pace Keating took the blanket off the state'y looking Anaconda, and he, too, won in straight heats, ruling 2 strong favorite in the betting. Besides the two events mentioned a stake valued at $585 for two-yeur-old pacers was decided, and another big crowd filled the grand stznd and teiting ring. The wagering was lively enough for this year, but it will bave to go down 1n turf aunals as a very slumpy year, It was thought by the knowing ones that Klata- wah, from the Oakwood stock farm, was zood enough to beat “most anybody’s hoss” in the 2:30 pacing siake for two- year-oids, but he ran up against the iney- itable, Selling in the pools for $20 against $10 for Diawood and $3 for the field, he was shown the way arourd the course in two straight beats by Diawood, a sturdy-look- ing chestnut young-ter by Diablo, which seemed to know nothing but to get to the wire first. The second heat wasrattled off in 2:2214. Savle La Grande took third money, but E<ther C and Dictatress, novitiates, had the red bunting waved in their faces. An early freight must have broughtin several fresh bank rolls, for the petting on | the 2:17 irot was truly invigorating. The field was a large one, eleven scoring for the word. The opening puols saw Dr. Leek bringinz $20, the field $8and Mar- garet Worth $4. For the first heat Iran Alto drew the pole, which he managed to hold to the nalf and then stepped on a tack. Keating here sent Antrima to the front and, easily maintaining the lead, won the heat easiiy from May Bin 2:1614. The start for this ueat was not one of Mr. Covey’s bappiest, Dr. Leek, unsteady at best, and Margaret Worth being sent away & length behind the leaders. It would seem that a favorite were entitled to more protection than this. Although the Doctor did nothing that would encourage his followers, he still breught §$18 in the pools sold before the second heat, against $20 for Anirima and $5forthe fiel Keating, behind bis black mare, laid zway back of Margaret and Iran Altoin the second heat to the half, where Iran Alto again went into the air. Straight- | ened away for the wire Antrima easily outfooted Margaret, placing the heat to ber credit in 2:1534. After this Antrima brought $20 with the entire field bunched in slight demand for $5. In the third and deciding heat Keat- ing again allowed Margaret Wortu to show the way to the streich. where he called on Antrima, and, drawing ahead, the mare won with a little to spare, two lengths before Dr. Leek, which, sent away to a break, trotted a great heat. He broke, though, at the paddock, and was placed thira for this breach of turf etiquette. By votting second, third and eighth, respectively, in the different heats, May B, driven by Van Bokkellen, earned sec- ond, and Daisy Wood, handled by Maben, third money. The 2:14 pace looked a gift for Ana- conda, and but few had the temerity to bet against him, getting tbe entire field for §10 against $40 for the favorite. It was no contest at ali, Anaconda step- ping off three straight haats in 2:14, 2:1J3 and 2:1134 like bresking sticks. Bess.e Rankin, fiuishing second in the first two heats, took second money.

NEW ORLEANS, La., Sept 10.— The announcement of twelve suspiciovs cases in one square 1n the city, and that three cases had developed since the death ofa young lady who had come from Ocean Springs, created a large measure of alarm in the public mind early in the day, but this was aliayed wien the facts became known. Itdeveloped that a man had died as the result of excassive dissipation instead of yeliow fever, asreported in the very square in which the suspicious cases had been found. At nightfall all reports received by Dr. Olipbant were so favorable that renewed confidence was infused in the officials of the board. All the patients in Claude-street square are better. These cases are still classed as suspicious, because their fever is similar to that which prevailed at Ocean Springs. This morning a party of doctors and officials left here over the Illinois Central for Memphis and will return via the Mis- sissipp1 Valley. They will stop at all intervening places to make known the exact status of affairs, seeking to allay the fears of the people in order that a panic in the country may be prevented and the imposing of unreasona- ble quarantine restrictions raised. It is hoped that this visit of the officials will have the etfect of checking undue re- straint of trade. One hundred and forty people, white and black, in Ocean Springs, by actual count, are in distress, many being in ex- treme need of medicine and provisions. Not a morsel of food or an ounce of medicine ha | been given to any one except by private citizens,who already have been beavily taxed. Sisters of Charity have appealed to the authorities to be allowed to nurse the sick. The fever has not spread west beyond Biloxi. Biloxi is appealing for medicine and the situation in the town 1s apparently grow- ing steadily worse. Miss Leads, in the city limits, was declared to bave black vomit after Dr. Lockett had made a micro- scopic examination. Frank Emery. son of the Methodist preacher there, was late this afternoon re- ported down with the yellow fever. The bouse and inmates are quarantined and the yeliow flag is flying. Mayor Howard :o-dayv ‘ssued orders that the flag should bc displayed wherever yellow fever was found, and a correspond- ent telegraphs this afternoon that the yellow flag is now conspicuous in Biloxi. NATIONAL FEDEEATION, English Irades Congress Favirs an Amalgamation of Unions. BIRMINGHAM, Exc, Sept. 10.—The Trades Union Congress to-day passed a resolution instructing the Parliamentary committee to collect and distribute a speeial fund to assist the striking en- gineers. Later the congress suspended “'standing orders” in order to introduce a resolution on national federation introduced by the Nl\diounl Plate Glass Bevelers’ Union. It read: This congress is of the opinion that nothing short of national federation of all trades and industries wiil relieve the workers in their present unsatisfactory condition, and instruect- ing the Parliamentary committee to issuea circular, based on the national system of fed- eration, with & view to enlisting the co-opern- tion of all organized workers tnroughout Great Britain. Theresolution was adopted with enthus- on the urgings of one speaker, who L?:;:lned that if a single union was not strong enough to defeat capital the time had come to form a national federation of .unions. BANK OF ENGLANO INNOVATION. 7o Hold Cne-Fifth of Its Reserve in Silver—Caustic Comments of the Times. LONDON, Exc., Sapt. 1.—The Times, in aspecial article from a correspondent whose accuracy it says it has reason to place confidence in, makes the announce- ment that the Bank of Englara directors have given consent to bold one-fifth of the bank’s reserve in silver. i 3 The Times, co mmenting emton;llly on what it calls “dramatic surprises,” says: “The astonisbment of the public will be immeasurably greater than at the action of the India Council.”” The editorial con- tinues: S This revolution in policy, for itis nothing less, app.ies to the stock of coin and bullion held in the issue department as securily for the bank notes. Peel's act forbids the bank to hold more than one-fourth in silver. The business com munity will hope that the directors may be able to show our informant that heis mis- taken. The silver would be quite useless, for nobody after witnessing the recent headlong fall in price would dream of regarding it as any- thing but an eligible quantity in such a con- nection. The bank’s credit is certainly strong enough to bear the adaitional strainwithout even wincing; but why should it be subjected thereto? 1f the Government s respomsi- ble for the measure it might have found some less objectionable sop to throw to the Ameriean Commissioners or the bimetallists among the ministerial supporters, or whoso- ever it may be that has to be conciliated. It would have been preferable to adopt the oft-repeated suggestion 10 cease coining halt- sovereigns in order to secure a greater cir- culation. This would have been inconvenient, but not positively harmful. The measure now said to te contemplated can only create a temporary vacuum 1n the silver market, which will in- evitably be rapidly filled by the practically in- exhaustible supplies available. It is necedless to deal with the mechanical difficulties, such as the question of the value now standing in the bank’s books, or the course to be pursued when large withdrawals of gold raise the proportion above one-fifth. These are mere details which shrink before the importance of the principle involved, We hope the directors will speedily explain. e SIGNS OF EASCALITY. Afrairs of Senator Harris Probing the the Union Pacific. CHICAGO, IrL., Sept. 10.—The Evening Post special from Wasbingion says: Gov- ernment officials have no ovinion to ex- press on the merits of the charge made by Senator Harris of Kansas that the Union Pacific sinking fund has been robbed of nearly $2.000,000. The offense, if offense it proves to be, was committed during the first Cleveland administration, at the instigation of the then Secretary of the Interior, Lamar, and consisted of divert- ing $1,500,000 from the Union Pacific earn- ings to subsidize a line of steamships on the Pacific Coast. Senator Harris also proposes todig up and go into all the land patent scandals in connection with the Pacitic railroads. He thinks he can show that the Govern- ment is entitled to recover forty or fifty million dollars worth of land alleged to have been legally patented. —_— . Chicago’s New Library.
