Among the early attractions to come to the Broad street theater are a number of successful favorites and at least one brand new production. It Is a singular fact every play presented at the Hroad by the B. C. Whitney forces have met with great success both from financial and artistic standpoints. That Mr. Whitney is aware of this fact is shown by his willingness to put his very best productions in the Broad each year. We had his "Isle of Spice" on its premier trip. Last year one of the first presentations of his new musical show "Isle of Bong Bong," was given here, and this year another of his new plays will be viewed here before its metropolitan engagement. This Is the comic opera, "Captain Careless," with the all-star cast, Including John C. Hen-haw and Alice Yorke. About the same time Mr. Whitney will present here one of his last year's successes, "Plff, Faff, PaufF," a musical show that has made a for- stabulary Looking For the Leaders. The total coal output of Pennsylvania for 1905 represents a value at the mines of about $350,000,000 and at points of distribution of about $650,000,000. The anthracite production was 78,G47,020 short tons and the bituminous 119,301,514 short tons. In producing the tonnage of the year the total oss of life in and about the anthracite mines was G4 4 and in and about the bituminous Hour Admiral Train was a Massachusetts man and was well known in Boston.

It is not unlikely that one or more deaths will result from the riot. One man is at the hospital with a stiletto wound In his side and several are under medical treatment at their homes. The State Constabulary are scouring Browntown In search of the leaders of the riot, who number about a half dozen. Their names were not ascertained at the colliery. the ringleaders of the trouble and a list of names of those who were not at work were taken. The con (tables then started towards Browntown for Buffalino and his companions.

The railroad men have not as yet heeded the call for a general strike except in the ease of an insignificant line running to Sestrorelzk and other shore resorts In the vicinity of St. Petersburg. The men of this road barricaded the line, with the result that they had an unimportant collision with Cossacks. A member of the State Constabulary appeared before Alderman Barrett this afternoon and swore out a warrant for the arrbst of John Doe and others, after which a squad of constables started out with the warrant for the Browntown section, in company with men acquainted with the Italians who are wanted.

The men began to Rather for work this morning: about 6 o'clock as usual and hung around the powder house for their supplies. The trouble occurred before the dealing out of supplies had been commenced. At close to 6:30, 150 foreigners were Jianging around, of whom all but about six were Italians. The others were Polanders and the entire body were sitting about on the ground. Joe Smelster, a Pole, was approached by an Italian, who playfully tried to sit on Ills knee. Smelster quietly pushed the man away to the next man. This Cqpused a jostling in the crowd, which. Instead of subsiding, suddenly broke forth Into a concerted attack of the Italians on the Poles. Fully half of the Italians took part in the attack and shortly had their enemies at llieir mercy.

Among the early attractions to come to the Broad street theater are a number of successful favorites and at least one brand new production. It Is a singular fact every play presented at the Hroad by the B. C. Whitney forces have met with great success both from financial and artistic standpoints. That Mr. Whitney is aware of this fact is shown by his willingness to put his very best productions in the Broad each year. We had his "Isle of Spice" on its premier trip. Last year one of the first presentations of his new musical show "Isle of Bong Bong," was given here, and this year another of his new plays will be viewed here before its metropolitan engagement. This Is the comic opera, "Captain Careless," with the all-star cast, Including John C. Hen-haw and Alice Yorke. About the same time Mr. Whitney will present here one of his last year's successes, "Plff, Faff, PaufF," a musical show that has made a for- stabulary Looking For the Leaders. The total coal output of Pennsylvania for 1905 represents a value at the mines of about $350,000,000 and at points of distribution of about $650,000,000. The anthracite production was 78,G47,020 short tons and the bituminous 119,301,514 short tons. In producing the tonnage of the year the total oss of life in and about the anthracite mines was G4 4 and in and about the bituminous Hour Admiral Train was a Massachusetts man and was well known in Boston.

It is not unlikely that one or more deaths will result from the riot. One man is at the hospital with a stiletto wound In his side and several are under medical treatment at their homes. The State Constabulary are scouring Browntown In search of the leaders of the riot, who number about a half dozen. Their names were not ascertained at the colliery. the ringleaders of the trouble and a list of names of those who were not at work were taken. The con (tables then started towards Browntown for Buffalino and his companions.

The railroad men have not as yet heeded the call for a general strike except in the ease of an insignificant line running to Sestrorelzk and other shore resorts In the vicinity of St. Petersburg. The men of this road barricaded the line, with the result that they had an unimportant collision with Cossacks. A member of the State Constabulary appeared before Alderman Barrett this afternoon and swore out a warrant for the arrbst of John Doe and others, after which a squad of constables started out with the warrant for the Browntown section, in company with men acquainted with the Italians who are wanted.

HOLDUP OF CHINAMAN. What has caused the ill feeling that exists between the two races at No. 6 is difficult to ascertain but they have not been friendly for some time. The men began to Rather for work this morning: about 6 o'clock as usual and hung around the powder house for their supplies. The trouble occurred before the dealing out of supplies had been commenced. At close to 6:30, 150 foreigners were Jianging around, of whom all but about six were Italians. The others were Polanders and the entire body were sitting about on the ground. Joe Smelster, a Pole, was approached by an Italian, who playfully tried to sit on Ills knee. Smelster quietly pushed the man away to the next man. This Cqpused a jostling in the crowd, which. Instead of subsiding, suddenly broke forth Into a concerted attack of the Italians on the Poles. Fully half of the Italians took part in the attack and shortly had their enemies at llieir mercy.
