Special Ottrer Reaigaa. Simon Abraham, a special off.ee: •worn in by Mayor koaek and as signed to the duty of protecting trac tion company property at the South Wilkes Barre power plant, resigned his post. Mr Abraham declares he does not lika the work and has been promised a different assignment when the present trouble is over. A Heights car came ta from one of ■ta runs with a number of windows smashed, and at the lime it drew into the Square there were no officers at the spot. A passerby called out "scab" to the imported crew, with the reault that the strikebraakar engaged in an argument with him This drew a crowd of man ta the area*, who started calling them names, with the reault that the crew closed the doors and withdrew to more apparent safttv inaide the car. Ia a moment the scene of trouble shifted to two men standing inside the Square at the corner of East Mar ket street, who were accused by the crowd of being atnkehreavers One man told them he had seen them op erating on the Harvey's lake line The men stoutly denied the charge and called upon the two men to iden lify themselves.
