VIZ ETCHED LEHuGH MINERS.

Their small Wages Eaten up by ExOr-
bitant Prices Charged at Company
Stores.
HAzELroN, Pa, Feb. 24-The Congressional CON-
mittee continued It's inquiry here to-day into the
miners strike In the Lehigh coal region. Thos.
Campbell, who keeps general store at Freeland,
was The nrst witness lie testified that the CON-
cases above the ordinary prices charged at the In
dividual stores. He knew this from personal In
sPecton Of miners pass books at company stores;
profits charged BY the company stores at present;
did not think the profits are as great now as then,
as there Is more competition now.
Thomas A. Buckley, miner and justice Of the
peace, was examined: He thought that the aver
age wages of miners In the Lehigh region was not
over t3j month. In 1871 the average was 50 "A
day, and some miners could then make "a and 3
day. The cost OF producing coal was then greater
than nov, and the selling price greater Witness
believed the men would 60 back TO work at the
same rate OF wages as is paid in the wyoming
region, but could not say whether they would ac-
cept the basis OF the Schuylkill region or not.
Witness thought the strike was premature.
COAL OPERATOR ON THE STAND.
Arlo Pardee, one Of the largest coal operators In
the state, was sworn Witness came to Hazelton
In 1888 as an engineer to survey coal land, and
has been a coal operator forty-three years. He
was the FIRST individual operator in the region.
Then only 40 600 tons Of coal were mined year In
this section. Witness never owned any lands, but
leased coal lands from the Leh1gh Valley Railroad
GO. leases low 3,OOO acres, S,OVO acres Vi winch
belong 10 the railroad company. He pays the Le-
high Valley Railroad Co As cents ton royalty for
mining coal on its lands. Witness said he employs
over 900 hands. When asked the cost OF mining
ton OF coal, the witness at first refused TO an
swer, and fatty
TOLD THE CoxxIrrRs IT WAS NONE OF ITS BusI-
NESS
but finally answered the question. He said that
exclusive of royalty, and not considering the in
terest on capital invested 1t cost to mine and put
ton OF coal on the cars 81 80 The labor cost Is
over 81 ton. Before the strike miners wages
were S11.59 q week, miners laborers S9.1O, and
general labOrers g. 20 week. Witness could not
give the committee the items OF expense which
made q ton OF coal cost $1.5O. The real cause OF
the strike was the operators refusal to deal or
have any communication with the labor Organlza-
tons.
1--WE will deal with our own employees, but never
with those organizations" The operators were
not asked by the men as employees to deal with
them. Witness did not think the organizations
had any right to come between the employees and
the men. The men were honest, har0-w0rktng
men, but the leaders OF these organizations were
mischievOus rascala. There had been an organiza-
ton Of the operators to limit the output OF coal
Witness said the testimony OF the men yesterday
was not true, and this was shown by the fact that
his collieries had paid over $500 600 In cash last
year to their one Thousand employees.
