I STRIKERS IN MASS MEETING Tiniandt of AnthraciU Milan Attend Tint Outdoor Benion Hsli PRESIDENT MITCHELL MAKES ADDRESS Many- Walk Mile Alli Meetlac 'ana Cheer Those ho' Ma'Ve" Speech In Their Behalf. SCRANTON. Pal, Aug. 1. The Urn Of the Strikers' dim meetings planned to take pUco at the various otrlke center u held todsy In the Round Woods. There were T.00O, strikers present from oil porta of tho city and" tho' afljointng towns,- some locals bavtng marched. tour mile to tho meeting, headed by a band or drum corpa. carrying flag and banners. National President John Mitchell and several of tho district officials delivered addresses. The crowd enthuel asttcelly, cheered all tho apeakora and fairly went wild over Mitchell. When ho waa in troduced to apeak someone shouted: "Hsts off!" and although tho aun'o raya beamed down ao intensely that many were carried from tho crowd exhausted, eyery man in the Tast assemblage bared -his head and re mained uncovered until his speech waa eon eluded. Then tho crowd surged about the platform and shook his handa until Mr. Mitchell was almost exhauated. Mr. Mitchell's apeech waa brief and dealt only with the llwa lssuea of tho fight. Ho said. In fH:' It bos been said by some who are not your friends that the miners of tho Bcran ton region are getting tired of the strike and are about to return to work. I come to find out If this Is so; I want to 'know If you are going to resume work, dishonoring your, organisation., and dishonoring your selves? (Cries of "Never! Never!' "Not No!" "Don't you believe It!" and the like.) If fhle atrike is lost, May Ood Almighty help the men, women and children who de pend for their subsistence on the mining of anthracite coal. If this alrtke la loot you will pay the cost of the strike. I want to say that the anthracite mtnera went on strike themselves. They voted for the strike. It was not the officers of the United Mine Workers union who called the strike, it will never end until oi vote It ended. '. Question of iettlement, FYom the offices of the coal presidents In New Vork comes th declaration that the atrike will ho settled only In their own wsy of settling It. I would direct you attention to similar declarationa made In the WM atrike. The coal trust may be powerful and strong, but the American people whose hearta throb In sympathy with the miners' cause are stronger than the coat trust. The American people, like a Jury, have paased upon thla conflict. They heard of the miners' requests for betterment of condi tions and the operators' 'refusal. They heard of the fnlners' proposition to arbi trate and the operators' refusal. Ninety per cent of the people have agreed that the miners are right and the operators wrong. I understand there Ib some dissatisfac tion and misunderstanding about the distri bution of the -relief fund. The operators have sent the it among yoj to urge you to be dissatisfied.. .- Through the newspapers they have told -.' you that you were dissatis fied. We have sent a circular to all (he locals which will explain In detail the plans for distributing relief, and I trust when you hear It read there will be an end to dissatisfaction - end . misunderstanding. ' While we have not get millions, we have rC'J-!l tel. I V. 1. . n mlnM 1 1 1 ,. A during the continuance of the atrike. (Loud heers.) I want to appeal to men with means to refrain from applying for relief. Let the fund be used by those who are in absolute reed of help. Be, patient with your com mittees. Put your shoulder to the wheel and do your share of the work. Don't de fend altogether on your officers to win your light. If we are to win we must all help. The one among you who violates the law la the worst enemy you have. No one la more pleased than the operators In New York to hear of disorder In the coal re gions. I want our men to exercise their rights that Inure to them under the laws, but I want that no man shall transgress the laws. ; , Sara atrike Will Bo Wo'a, r' , The strike will be won. (Loud and pro longed cheers.), I bave no ' more doubt about It than I have that I am standing here addressing you. The operators ere trying to make It ap pear that the strike l beginning to break up. There la a aaylng that those who come from afar can lie with. Impunity. At Shamoktn the operators tell the strikers that the men at Wllkesbarre are returning to work. At Wllkeabarre they toll them the men at Shamokln are. returning, and at other place they tell them the men at Bcranton are weakening. 1 fall to see any signs of weakening here. (Laughter and ap'- plus,) , t , , ' ' 1 This ! possibly the last time t every will talk to juia; I want you to listen to me. 1 want to Impress on you tha Importance of winning this strike. If you win, aa you atrlkea;. there will be a basis of adjuat wn! frtved which will prevent atrlkea. If you lose the strike, the operators will make you pay for their strike losses by rc H1ll,1trS,''OUf -And if you lose the atrike you lose- your organisation. I trust and hope and constantly pray you will ;f"w."wfnV!d la Cheer,' Before the handshaking episode had be gun Gnelrmas . Phillips asked all who fa ore fight to a finish to raise their hands.
