At the end mt tho first week of the strike lu the an thraqlto coal fields of Pennsylvania there aro not wanting signs of a desire on tho part of Bomo of tho strikers to return to their work. This sentiment Is generally confined, so far aB reported, to the Engllsh- poaktng element nmoiiB tho mlno workers. Experience has shown that theso men are tho most conservative, the foreigners be ing Impulsive and hot-tempered In strike times. Notwithstanding tho serious outbreak nocessltntlm; tho sendlug of troopB to flohuykltl county, everything Is reported quiet In tho entire coal regloi toulght. There Is a fooling that efforts will ho made In all tho districts on Monday morning to start up mines that aro now Idle. Tho persistence of corporations and Individual mine owners In asserting that they will consider grievances of their employes In dividually, hut will nover under any cir cumstances with tho United Mine Workers, hai undoubtedly had Its effect ntul H would not ho surprising It mnny mlncB that havo been closed down since the strlko began will resume operations at least par tially tho beginning of next week. The outbreak at Shenandoah fol lowed by tho sending of nearly 3,000 troops there, put an effectual stop to rioting, and the peaco nnd stillness of Sunday prevail In the entire anthrlclte region How loug this tll last In a prob lem The presence of soldiers In the Held his had a quieting effect on tho strikors who bellovo In violence an a means of ac complishing their purpose.

Tho following statement was given out today from the office of President Harris of the rhllndolphla & Reading Hallway company: "Nineteen of our collieries are at work this morning and twenty aro Idle. The Idle ones are those about Shamokln, Mn hanoy City and Shenandoah, In tho two last named districts our men generally went to work yesterday and remained nt worlc until evening. They wero attacked by Poles and other rioters an they went homo and many of them ware Injured. The sheriff's forces were overpowered and ho called upon tho governor for troops. This call was endorsed by the borough council and the leading citizens of Shenandoah. A con siderable body of military Is now on tho ground and It Is probable thero will not bo further violence. "So far as we are Informed, our men are desirous of working wherever they will bo properly protected. Our own protective forco has been largely Increased and every thing possible has been done to keep the situation well In hand." TROOPS AT SHENANDOAH I'reirnue of Mllltln.

With tho arrival of tho militia hero today this bor ough assumed Its normal condition and tho anticipated resumption of vlolenco on tho part of tho miners did not occur. It might havo been tho prosonco of tho soldiers that restrained tho turbulent element, but n ny of tho residents believe tho lack of riotous scenes was duo to tho fact that all the col lieries here wero closed. Fearing that au attempt to work tho mines today would result in possiblo blood shed Sheriff Toolo last night requested the mine owners to suspend operations un til after tho troops hod arrived. Tho only colliery which attompted to work today was tho William Ponn, operated by tho Sus quehanna Coal company. Tho employes wore, however, Intercepted on their way to the mine by strikers, who succeeded In per suading them to return to their homes. Tho tlrst detachment of troops arrived here shortly before S a. m. and by 1:30 this afternoon tho Fourth, Eighth nnd Twelfth regiments and Dattery C and the Gov ernor's troop wero hero in full force. Tho Twelfth regiment went Into camp on tho aide of Davis' hill, southwest of tho town. The Fourth regiment, tho Governor's troop and Dattery C in Columbia park, In the eastern section of the borough, with the Eighth regiment In Dalrd's field, to tho northeast. General Gohin established head quarters In the Hotel Ferguson until ho can find a suitable placo In the field. The arrival of tho troops occasioned much ex citement among tho residents and espe cially tho strikers, who thronged tho vicin ity of tho railroad station from early morn ing until late In the day. They wero sullen and vented muttered threats, but made no attempt at violence. Aside from the Incursion of the militia tho most Important occurrence today was a meeting of tho mlno workors of this vi cinity. The meeting, which was secret, la said to have been dominated by tu foreign employes. The English-speaking men fa vored returning to work on Monday, but the foreigners voted them down nnd adopted a resolution to remain on strike. Tho English-speaking employes declare they will go to the mines on Monday abd serious consequences may result. This was pay day at the William Penn colliery and a number of armed deputies nor brought from Mabaaoy Plane and placed on guard around the slope. The mlno workers wero orderly, however, and no troublo occurred. The saloons, which had been closed by Burgess David lirown after yesterday's riot, opened this afternoon and as a result sev eral miners wero orrcs,ted on the charge of disorderly conduct. WYOMING VALLEY IS QUIET OruHiilier IJIIr-luT Advise .Mlurri to llo Notliln That Can Pre judice Their Cunse. AV I I.K ES H A UU E, Pa.. Sept. 22. The close of tho first week of the great minors' strike finds everything tranquil In the Wyoming valley. There has been no disturbance of any consoquenco during the six days. It is thought that if any troublo arises It will bo In the Hazleton region, whore some collieries nro still being operated. Sheriff Harvey has things there In good control so far. It Is his purpose not to rail for troops unless a3 a last resort. Ho will, however, provldo himself with a Btrong posso, so that in caso trouble does arlso he will bo ablo to cope with a formidable mob. Tho United Mlno Workers held meetings In many places this nftornoon and Sheriff Toole nnd his deputies wero condemned for their shooting nt Shenandoah. Addressing the strikers at Sugar Notch this nftornoon Organizer Fred Dllcher ad vised tho men In tho Wyoming valley to stick to their good resolutions to keep tho peaco and not give the authorities any cxcubo to summon tho militia. A meeting of operators was held In this city today and the situation dlscua.'ed. Several of tho operators said tho allray at Shenan doah was not unexpected. Where an at tempt Is made by forco to prevent n body of worklngmen from going to work blood shed Invariably follows. Ono operator thought the oamo condition would exist In tho Wyoming district were any nttempt made to work tho Idlo collieries. Tho only mlno working In tho region today was the colliery nt Moconaqua, operated by tho West End company. About the usual forco wns at work. Thero Is now no alternative but a fight to tho tllilsh between organized labor and or ganized capital. Honest efforts for peace havo been throttled and since reason and Justice and mercy will not bo heard the operator must cither arrogate to himself tho title of coal king nnd sway his soapter over unwilling subjects, or the miners must moot tho Issue by renewed efforts to deplete tho markets by tho eompleto pre vention of production.

All Is quiet and orderly In this region tonight. Pres ident Mitchell of tho United Mlno Workers of America tonight Issued n statement giv ing his views on tho calling out of troops nt Shenandoah and tho killing of a member of a mob by doputles nt Shenandoah yes terday. The statement says: From information 1 havo received from those who havo investigated the situation It appears that tho shooting on the part of tho sheriff nnd his deputies was entirely uncalled for. Inasmuch as the strikers hud not Injured a single member of the sheriff s posso, nnd tho circumstance Illustrated tho ruthless disregard tho sheriff nnd his dep uties havo for the lives of persons whom It wus their plain duty to place under arrest If they had violated any of the laws of tho state. Tho governor In calling out the stuto troops has In my Judgment acted In considerately nnd without a thorough In vestigation. I am confident the miners who are on strlko ara fully Impressed with the necessity of observing tho law and con ducting themselves In a peaceful manner at all times. Father Phillips of St Gabriel's Roman Catholic church, who has worked diligently for arbitration as n means of settling the strike, tonight Issued a statement In which ho comes out flatly on the side of tbo strik ers. In the statement be says: If the executive officials of th jig coal carrying companies havo been correctly quoted by today's papers arbitration Is no loncer a means to tho end ilnslreil hv tho general public, namely, a discontinuance of the conflict botweon labor and capital.
