Mandate to Quit Work, Receive Sinister Warning SHERIFF'S PLAIN CLOTHES MEN INVESTIGATING Comparative quiet reigned on Saturday and Sunduy over the area whero International Workers of the World have been active. Sheriff- Buss feels that he has the situation under control, and although he will not relax vigilance for some time, he is reducing his force of men. Only one instance of reputed I. W. activity was reported to the sheriff yesterday.

James Loughney, 815 Tedrick rond, Browntown, awoke yesterday morning to And crepe nailed to bile This 18 the latest of a series of warnings that he has received because he and his sons continue to go to their work the mines despite I. W. W. dates. The incident was reported 1,0 sheriff and he went to the home accompanied by two plain clothes men, who removed the crepe and started an investigation.

The sheriff WAS out with deputies and State troopers yesterday Investigating a reported meeting, but nothing materialized. It is belleved that the I. W. W. are thoroughly cowed, by the sheriff's efficient work.

Many threats of activities to-day have been reported but are not taken seriously by the authorities. A vigilant patrol will be kept up, anyway. The sheriff is using his own deputies entirely on the mornIng patrol work and keeping the trooperg in reserve. for raids on forbidden meetings during the afternoon and evening.

I TAKE I. W. W. CASE TO U.S. COURT Counsel Alleges Infringement of Rights Guaranteed by the Constitution 260 MEN CAUGHT IN RAID STILL IN LACKAWANNA JAIL With exception of the crepe Incident at Browntown, no outrages were reported in Luzerne or Lackawana yesterday, wholesale The men seem Old frightened Forge after last arrests in week.

The severity of the bail and fine in each case has had a deterrent effect on further activities. Sheriff. Buss spent most of Saturday and yesterday attempting to arrest those responsible for dynamiting a home in Cork Lane. The authorities have clues which seem to point unquestionably to a certain man in Cork Lane, but they are unable to get sufficient evidence to warrant his arrest. The fact that the Cork Lane Loughney has never been threatened and that the Browntown Loughney has, leads the sheriff to consider the possibility that the work is that of 'out-of-town assassins.

Both homes are on corners and both Loughneys are miners. In the case of the man who found crepe on his door, both he and his three sons work in the mines and have continued to do so despite repeated threats of I. W. W. agitators.

Michael Loughney has never been threatened, although he works regularly. The entire affected part of the county was carefully patrolled all day yesterday by sheriff's deputies. Special guards were placed around the homes of all those who have been threatened and they will remain duty until all trouble is over. A continuous patrol will remain in force until the authorities are certain that the activities of the I. W.

W. have permanently ceased. Threatenings and intimidations are to some extent naturally expected, and because of the geography of the country are almost impossible to stop. The last of the men arrested in Old Forge last week were arraigned Saturday and in every case were held in $5,000 bail for court and fined $10 and costs. writ of habeas corpus was refused by the court.

It is confidently expected that all the men in the toils at the present time who are not citizens will be deportedrest Less than twenty of those are American citizens. Following the decision of the Lackawanna County court to refrain from hearing the case of the 267 Industrial Workers of the World prisoners on a writ of habeas corpus, counsel for the defendants announced yesterday that they would go to the United States Courts with a petition for a writ of habeas corpus, basing the appeol on alleged infringement of rights guaranteed by the United States constitution. Under the ruling of the local court the prisoners must give from $5,000 to $10,000 bail each or stay in jail until a report is made by the grand jury which sits to-morrow and which will probably remain in session two weeks. Four of. the 267 men arretsed in the raid in the forbidden old" Forge meeting have been released upon their being able to show they happened into the hall and had no connection with the I.

W. W. organization. 260 still in the county Nineteen Three others gave ballin. This leaves alleged leaders are asked to give $10,000 bail.

Families of some of the prisoners are reported to be in dire want. The men had been on strike for several weeks prior to the arrests. National leaders of the I.

W. W. are said to be on their way to Old Forge from different parts of the United States. Mrs. Sarah B.
