OPERATORS CONSIDERING RE-OPENING OF MINES UKION CARPENTERS IN CHICAGO TO CONTRIBUTE FINANCIAL AID TO THE STRIKERS IN THE AN THRACITE FIELDS. Duryea, Pa., Aug. 14. An attempt to operate the Wayke washery today caused serious rioting. Children fired stones at the iron and coal , police on guard, whereupon the latter fired blank cartridges. The mob replied with a volley of stones. The guards substi tuted ball cartridges," one of the bullets striking Andrew Uvaitch in the leg. - The pent up wrath of the strikers was then let loose. They charged the colliery and deputies, who covered themselves with their rifles. Chief of Police Cosgrave arrested fourteen dep uties. Harry Collins, one of them, while seeking to escape, had his skull fractured. A traveler, who was mis taken for a guard, had his head split open. The washery had to shut down, and five men -who had remained inside were also arrested. Wilkesbarre, Pa., Aug. 14. President Mitchell said today that he did not know what significance attached to the gathering of so many operators and mine superintendents at Pqttsville yes terday. The impression in coal trade circles here is that the meeting was held to hear the views of Vice Presi dent Loomis of the Delaware, Lacka wanna & Western company. Mr. Loomis has just completed a tour of the strike region, and, it is said, made ao-eport -of his observations to the presidents- of ihe- -coal -carrying roads in New York. Just what was the natureof the report is not known, but it is reported that Mr. Loomis recom mends the starting of some of the col lieries in different parts of the re gion. The presidents of the coal com panies, so it is- alleged, thought it would be better to get the views of the resident superintendents of the mines before this was attempted. For that purpose, it is reported, a meeting of the superintendents of the largest coal companies was called at Potts ville. It was the largest attended meet ing of operators and superintendents ever held in the anthracite region. The washery of Duryea resumed op- erations today. A crowd or sw or ow strikers and their sympathizers sur rounded the works ana tne suuauou is threatening. The sheriff has a small number of deputies on the ground. Chicago, Aug. 14.

ALONG THIS LINE, AND AP PRECIATES ITS VALUE. Norfolk, Aug. 14. Plans are maturing to make the Seaboard Air Line a coal carrying road. That accounts for the great risa in the market value of the stock. The experience of First Vice President and General Manager Barr with the Norfolk & Western railway as a coal carrying road impressed him. with the value of that traffic and made hakn desirable as manager of affairs for another road which intends to go into the business. Last winter the S. A. L made strenuous efforts to obtain char ters from the Virginia legislature to rorm roads tapping the coal fields. Now its purchase of the Eeast & West rail way shows .that it will be a factor in the coaj carrying trade of Alabama and Virginia. Coal will be delivered to ship at Savannah and Taimpa.
