 Alling-Did you have an interview with
 MT. Glidden after his appearance on the
 committee which visited the composing room! | Witness-Yes, in the News office MT. Gid 1 UGH WAS present. AG LA0 uoeCluS WHICH occurred week later. At the meeting in | the News office, continued the witness, MT. Glidden asked us how we felt about being l black balled. l told him that we were
 treated meanly, in my opinion. He asked me if I thought it would be satisfactory if I the union would take all the members of the | COURIER composing room with the exception of two men. I told him that didn't know.
 MT. Alling-Did he say who those two | men were2 Witness-I don't remember. But he did say that if the union refused to | accept the two men will the rest of the men
 strike to remove the two non union men. MT. Platt-Were you ever 8 member of the
 union? Witness: Yes, in Massachusetts.

 Judge Lucius F. Deming of the City court was the next witness on the stand. Mr. Alling-Did you hear Mir. Mailhouse | testify as to whether he printed these boycott
 circularsa Showing number of colored handbi1ls.) Witness-My memory the testimony of MT. Mailhouse is that he said | that he had printed ten thousand each of several different styled boycott bills. MT. Platt-I object to bringing this testi | mony in regard to MT. Mailhouse before the l court without previous looking into on the accused's part.
 Judge Stoddard-I rule the evidence in. MT. Alling-Did he testify as to whose | request he printed the circulars Ans.-He l said that the printing bill was to be charged l to the Typographical union.
 Several different circulars were shown to | the witness, who testified that to the best of his ability and by referring to his court notes l the witness testified that he (Mailhouse) said | that he had printed 10000 of each. Several questions by MT. Platt to the wit ness were ruled out.
 Judge Stoddard-I don't think that we
 should inquire into Judge Deming's judicial
 business.
 A. w. Gleason, a printer employed on the
 COURIER for the last three years, testified to
 the committee meeting which was held in
 the COURIER composing room when the printers paid 8 dollar for entrance fee.
 He said: I told MT. McNrmara at the meeting, when he asked for a missing man, that I was the missing one and that I didn't care to join the union. MT. Sk1nner's condition was mentioned at the meeting. MT. Gleason said in reply as to whether or not he had since spoken to the men who were on the committee that he had not. MT. Gleason said that he was not member of the union at present.
 MT. Platt-Did you make an application
  but l heard that my name had been put be- | fore the union and that was an applic ant l for membership. I don't know who brought ! my name before the committee. was 8 | member of the union for about forty eight | consecutive hours.
 Mr. Alling-Why did you tell Mr. Glidden and MT. McNanara that you did not care to make application to join the union? Witness Because was told by member of the Ty geographical union that I would be black balled, and that $1 ,000 would not make me member. I was put down as traitor to the union. But was mistaken for another man.
 MT. J. H. Kearney, the grocer doing busi- ness at "A and 76 Congress avenue, next took the stand He told about how Glidden had called at his store and represented him. self as from the Knights of Labor and their walking delegate. He talked about my talk ing an ad. out of the COURIER He asked me whether I thought it was not better to com ply with his wishes told him that knew of no geod reason why I shouldn't pat ronize the paper He told me that 1 he would call again, at which time perhaps I would think of his proposition more favora- ply. He did not give any reason about the paper being boycotted. I have had no other difficulties with organized labor. There was no oss-examining done by the accused side.
 Mir. R. W. Mills, the grocer of 382 State street, was the next witness. He stated that he had been accustomed to advertising in the COURIER for some time. MT. Gidden, the walking delegate, was introduced to me by MT. Isaac Mailhouse, the printer.
