t ion among the families of The miners that is
being developed here is terrible and such
that it cannot longer be hidden. One family
named Fogel was found to-day to have ac-
tually been without food for two days and the
children were so weak from fasting that when
relief came it had to be sparingly given TO
avoid killing them. There were nine in the
family. Another family of six named Burns
was in the same state and one named John
son was almost as bad. They are but instances
that have many parallels. 1t has been estab-
lished that most of the contributions intend ed
for the miners has been absorbed bv the rail
