Cavalry Sent to Turkey Run Amid Turmoil in Pottsville
Brigadier General Gobin dispatched a cavalry platoon to Turkey Run to deter clashes as nonunion workers and their families faced threats and stone-throwing. A woman in Gilberton reported daily threats and property damage, prompting escort to a hospital. Firing continued nearby but not near guards or troops. The mine strike situation remained unchanged and a murder case at Pottsville proceeded to county court without bail. President Mitchell of the United Mine Workers would not attend a Michigan conference, with Mother Jones meeting him in Wilkes-Barre.
