When the mob arrived ut Fowler's lumber ynnl it halted and ..wailed thc Bounding of tho whistle at Kch lcy Hun. The workmen came from the mine in a body. Thc strikers made a rush for thom, nnd a bend la Band strugr-le followed. Stones, lu mi* of coal, clubs and bottles were hurled at the non? union men. Captain Christian, of the Coal and Iron police, with a force of twenty-seven men, made aa effort to subdue thc mob, but he nnd his men were overpowered and coin-polled to flee for their lives. Officers ["etas Kreig.r and John Hleecker were badly wounded, and were carried into the city on str-tclicrs. Three m?*n in the mob were shot, but thev were takfen away by j their friends. 'Ihe officers are seriously hurt, but, their injuries are not likely to prove filial. It is feared ihat th<-so rioKs may continue from day to day uni ll more severe measures aro adopted by the offlomls. It is reported that two-thirds of the foreigners were under tlie in? fluence of lin nor, and that their buders were all drunk. Tho Shenandoah City Colliery, which was the scene of yesterday's not, did not work to-day, and it is lin- intention of tho Brading officials not to start up any of their breakers in that dis- ' trict until further notice. A number of s|>eciul police have been sent to the region from all points alone: the Bending mud. but. it is mid they will only bc BBCd in guarding ihe Keridi.lg collieries. Miehnei Heffron, who trna shot In thc mouth last Bight, is not expected to recover All the ol hers ure doing well. The labor leaden say that the special officers BOBBted their revolvers unnecessarily, aud thus exasperated the Poles. Iii,, chairman, John Let- said Iho labor lenders deprecated the trouble ut Bbonendoah. " When wo heard of the trouble last evening.'' naid lyce, " we got our head men together, went, throng- tha crowd and pacified the excited peo? ple. It was unanimously agreed at our Bleating that any man attempting violence must bs handed over to tho proper authorities. The palioa have brought on this trouble, I believe In my heart, to raise public sentiment against us. This trouble will not, change Butters any with Us.'1 " How about the WiDlam Penn and other indi? vidual collieries:''' " All collieries signing the adTBOOl can work if their BBeu want to. The Joint Board gives this permission. William I'enn, Kehley Hun, l.avvreuce and Brown and Big Mine Run have either signed Ihe advance or said they would sign lt. When men refuse to work at the udvanco il. is Iheir own individual act. Only a few of the Bending Companys cnllicrio. were in onemton ta, day, and the shipments of coal did not exceed over '.'io ears." 'Ihe Coal and linn Company shipped a lar.e number of snrbinea mid ammunition from this city to Shena minah to-day.
