infantry anil at the point, of the bayonet were driven back four miles to Tamaqua
and dispersed.
Anoiber otowd of 800 strikers from the north side of Hrzleton also marched
here and succeeded in closing tne company's colliery at Nssquelronlng before it
was scattered. The presence of the soldiers was entirely unexpected and the
the iirikers were very much cres fa len. It was probab'y the most
exciting morning that Panther Creek and Nesquehonlng valleys ever
experienced. The strikers wore scattered over 'he various roads and companies
of soldiers are scurrying In all directions heading off the marching men. The

careful not to commit overt acts in the presonco ot the troops, for the moi-ent

lit* speech today contained many
good point#, yunong wbioff was the
following:
“When Grover Cleveland and bis
party were eleoted to power along in
1892, tbe startling our in
dustrial policy, by tbe adoption of free
trade, threw raeobanics and laborer#
out of employment, depreciated weges,
stagnated farm produots, closed tb#
faotoriee and mills, and brought on
(be panic of 1893.
“This alarm continued up to, and
during the campaign of 1896, when tbe
democratic party foreswore Cleveland,
found a boy orator aomewbere out id
the west, and made a declaration of
its policy of free coinage of silver, at
the ratio of 16 to 1, without tbe con
sent of aDy other nation.
“So violent in its effeot would the
success of this policy have been, that
business, whatever there was left of it,
stood a*ill, in fear and amazement,
and the oountry was financially on the
pat of its back, Mr. Bryan was in de

Bryan declared they should swallow

“Bryan was paid f6r bis oratory but
tbe people would not take his medi
cine. They turned to a man who bad
onoo before given some very effective
remedy in the shape of a tariff bill
and they were promptly returned to
financial health and prosperity.
“Now if they would not take Bryan’s
speoific when they were siok, does if
seem reasonable that tbey will blindly
