Arrange ments for the disposition of National Gunrdsmcn nt strategic points in the soft-coal dlstilct for the protection of mines and miners were completed today and last night in conferences between the big operators and Colonel Stackpole at the camp en Scenery Hill, overlook ing the tiny mining vlll.ige of Coke burg. This protection will be in addition te that afforded by the State police and the "cenl police," these paid by the opera tors, under Captain Themas L. Delan and a corps of special deputy sheriffs. An interesting feature of the situa tion in the mining district is that there are no conferences between operators and miners, and no discussions of wnges and working conditions. This usual fac tor in strikes is missing, nnd nil at tention is devoted te troop disposition and the various moves made in connec tion with the nrevldln? of nrotectien. The miners seem te be out of It, while mounted patrols of rsntlenal Guards men ride threueh the district, and squads of State police dash In meters around the country, following out ru mors of trouble, which generally turn out te be "bloomers." State Police "Sufficient" The conferences between the coal op erators nnd Colonel fltackpele did net make a big hit with the State police. In fact, if the State police' were te talk right out in meeting ns they feel In the privacy of their quarters, they would say that in their opinion the National Guardsmen were net needed. Discuss ing this phase of the situation, one of the Important members of the State police explained that mobs lire easily led off in another direction from that for which they originally headed.
