STRIKERS
Prevented Open
ing of Mines
And Beat Non-Union
Men Terribly.
One May Die and Others Were
Kidnaped.
Hnzlcton, Pa., Aug. 25. Tho most
turbulent sceno which has occurred
during tho strike took place hero early
this morning, wlicn nn attempt to
open Crnnbcrry and No. 40 colliery was
made. Ten thousand miners formed a
cordon about tbo mines and no attempt
to open tho mines was made.
Forty non-union men who appeared
at the mines wore beaten with clubs
and driven buck. The most serious
feature of tho demonstration occurred
when "August Scheuch, foreman, while
attempting to rescue bis son from the
mob, vns seized, beaten to tho ground,
nnd stabbed three times by unknown
parties. Scheuch was taken to Hnzle
ton hospital, where ho now lies des
perately wounded. Physicians thero
discovered internal Injuries which they
think will causo the foreman's death.
The mob would have killed Scheuch
had It not been for the timely Inter
ference of a pnrty o'f citizens, who
caught tho wounded man up from tho
ground nnd ran with him to a place of
safety. Severnl of tho non-unionists
who were kidnaped are also badly
hurt, It Is thought. No ono knows
where they are. No shots were fired,
tho strikers using clubs and sticks as
.weapons.

Vhnt I will do."
Among amendments to the Nnsh codo
will be one offered by Judge Thomas,
of Huron county, which calls for the

Thero Is also complaint because tho
public library and health depart
ments nro put under control of Board
of Public Service.
Columbus, O., Aug. 25. Governor
Nash's raessago specifically asks tho
Legislature to do only two things
leponl the Koyer law nud pass tho
Nash Code bill, just as picscntcd,
then go homo and think It over until
the session of 1004, when If tho codo
docs not suit, amendments can be
made.
It Is the Governor's hope to push tho
Codo bill through ns a non-partisan
measuve. If this falls he will mako
It a party measure, try to force nn
agreement In caucus and then jam
the codo through tho Senato and
House.
night, Mrs. Vanderbilt has hired sev
eral vaudeville performers,
among them Williams and
Walker, colored comedians.
Williams will sing his "Ma Castle on

about the necessity of Indigo In blood,
diamonds on tho floor, baboon butlers
at tho door, and monkeys for valets.

" CONGRESS
Could Only Advise
Ending Strike.
It Could Not Order It To Be
Settled.
Washington, D. C, Aug. 25. If tho
Central Federated Union, of Now
York, representing 250,000 working
men, meets nnd carries out its pro
gram of adopted resolutions, nsking
President Roosevelt to call Congress
together In special session to take
action to end the coal strike, thero
Is no doubt mat its request will re
celvo respectful consideration. But'
that It will result In the assembling
of Congress before its regular De
cember term, Is not believed here.
Congress could only advise a termin
