Rosemont Miners Hit by Dynamite Attack Near Flemington
Rosemont, near Flemington, was tense after a dynamite blast targeted John Campbell's home at 11:05 pm, tearing a corner from the cottage and damaging the front porch. Campbell and wife escaped with only minor injuries, while a 14 year old son slept through the blast. The incident follows a week of miner tensions between union miners and coal operators and prompted state troopers and guards to bolster patrols at the Cambria and Rosemont areas. Two non union workers were beaten earlier near Browntown on the road to Wendel as a hunt for jobs at Maryland Coal Company continues. Police planned arrests as investigations proceed and more guards are deployed to prevent further violence.
