BttfUoQ, Pa, Ocl 4 ?Ac uprising of striking miners io tbo Shatiiokin re gioo seemed imminent for several hours lato today, aod there were fore? bodings of a serious clash botweoo arm? ed deputies and a largo body of strik? ers Prompt action of some of tbo oooi headed officials of tbe miners' organi latioo fioally suooeeded in averting tbo belated ooofliot Some 3,000 excited atrikera assembled at Mount Carvel and, headed by a band of music, start? ed a marob to North Franklin with the avowed purpose of foroiog those at work at the North Franklin colliery to quit aod joio io tbe atrike. This was ths ooly mioo io operatioo io the re gioo aod the strikers hsd bsoome an? gered at the refusal of the meo there to atop work Tbe marchers were io so excited sod wrathful frame of mind. Wheo they bad oovered three miles of their marob tbey were met by officials of their organization, who, after much per* suasion, iodooed che meo to abaodoo their proposed trip Tbo strikers tbeo turned book, though many did so ro luetaotly. Meaotime several hundred depotica bad been rosbed to Trevortioo on special trains aod a serious ooofliot ooold scaroely have beeo avoided bad the exoited strikers arrived at tbe soeoe aod eodeavored to oarry out their threats agaiost the workmen Later it was announoed that the offi? cials of tbe North Fraoklio to preveot trouble would not operate the mioe uo til the strike was settled. Qeo Gobio as a result of the threat eoed trouble resoioded his order for Battery C of the oatiooal guard to re? turn homo tomorrow. The Eighth regimeot left for home this afternoon. Affairs are quiet in ail other ssotioos of tbe anthracite field today aod tbe strikers scored important gains io the olosiog of additional oollieries, io the Sobuykill district. With a cessation of operations at tbs North Fraoklio all of the Philadelphia aod Readiog com? pany's 39 oollieriea will oow have oeased work.

Ooly Three Per Cent of Miners Remained at Work Philadelphia Oot 3-?There were oo de?elopmeots of special importance to? day io the miners' strike. Ao inter? esting feature was the Readiog oom? paoy's notice to its employes that in addition to its tffsr of a 10 per cent inoreaso it was willing to enter into arbitiatioo with them relative to aoy grievances they may have. None of lb* strikers, however, have indicated their intention to return to work. A run-ar gained ?irouiatiou today that Preaideut Mitchell of the United Mine Workers had in conference with tbe presidents of the ooal carrying rail? roads agreed upon a settlement of the strike Wheo informed ot the rumor Mr Mitchell promptly denied it aod said be had not boru in oooferoooo with either railroad cGoials or ooal opera tors.

Mr Evans said yesterday that the roads got virtually the only profits arising from the fair, any other profits going to the business men of Columbia, who are the chief patrons of tbe roads, and be for one felt like saying to tbe roads if they wished to Injure tbe fair with increaeed rates tbe society had no objection to call it off altogether and telling the people of the Slate exactly why.
