SHERIFF MARTINS TRIAL.
Evidence of Belligerency on the Part
of the Strikers.

Wilkesbarre, Pa, Feb. 23.-The trial
of Sheriff Martin and his deputies was
resumed this morning, when Michael
Brennan was on the stand. He testi-
fled that he ran for the brush when
some strikers tried to capture him.
Two shots were fired at him.
August Winnock, who worked at
Cranberry, testified that Sept. 3, seven
days before the fatal shooting, a crowd
of strikers told the workmen that they
must quit or be hurt. Others went
home. The day before the shooting
they were stopped on the road, and
told they would be killed If they went
to the workings.
Ludwig Laube of Cranberry stated
that he refused to go home when order
ed 10 do so by the strikers, and was
struck in the back with a stone thrown
by a striker. He was so afraid of the
strikers that he carried a revolver for
the first time in his life.
A number of witnesses were examin-
ed during the afternoon, most of them
testifying to the belligerent acts on the
part OF the strikers. Many of them
swore that they had been threatened,
or had suffered personal violence by
the strikers

REFLECTIONS OF A BACHELOR

New York Press: Most girls are hero
worshipers till they meet one
Probably the most unhappy girl in the
world is the one whose teeth ache every
time she eats candy.
a girl always comes away from a house
party with either a terrible quarrel or an
idea for new waist.
Any man will admit that he can't make
bread, but no woman will admit that she
can't understand politics.
n mother would sometimes do better If
she spent less time teaching her daughter
when she ought to be a lady and more
time teaching her when she ought not to
be woman.
When a man sees his wife really angry
he says it is foolish to lose her temper
like that; when he gets the same way
himself he says there is a point where
patience ceases to be virtue.

Resolution Urging Congress to With
draw Bonding Privileges.

Portland. Ore, Feb. 23.-The Portland
Chamber of Commerce today passed a Sc
ries of resolutions urging congress to
withdraw the bonding privilege from the
Canadian Pacific railroad. The resolutions
state that by reasons of its freedom from
the restraints of the interstate commerce
law of the United States. the Canadian
Pacific has an advantage over the Amer
lean roads which enables X to deprive
them of a large part of the carrying trade
of this country
The resolutions further declare that the
Canadian Pacific is making use of the ad-
Vantages enjoyed by it to aid Canada as
against the United States, and that great
damage is being done to the commercial
interests of the country. and especially to
those of the Pacific coast states. The
resolutions conclude as follows:
I'VE ask you. without delay. to pass a
law which shall take away and deprive
the Canadian Pacific railway and all other
foreign railways and transportation lines
of all right to transport goods or passan-
gers from any one part of the United
States to any other, on any other or furth
er terms of re-entry into the United states
than those which exist and are applicable
to passengers and goods coming into the
United States from q foreign country
Copies of the resolutions were sent to
the chambers of comm arce of San Fran
cisco, Los Angeles. Seattle. Tacoma. Spo-
kane. Salt Lake and Denver, with the re-
quest that they take similar action.

Theide-Alexander Seduction Case.

The defendant in the seduction suit
brought by Alma Theide against Max
Alexander yesterday filed a demurrer
to the amended complaint on the
ground that it does not state facts
sufficient to constitute a cause OF ac-
ton and that il is ambiguous in that
it fails to state whether the plaintiff
sues for damages on account of indie
cent assault upon her or for damages
on account of seduction, also that the
amended complaint does not set forth
the age of the plaintiff with certainty
at the time of the alleged seduction.

To Meet the Cut.

Washington, Feb. 2S.-Application was
made to the interstate commerce commits
sion today on behalf of a large number of
railroads asking for a suspension of the
fourth section of the interstate commerce
act, known as tha long and short haul
clause on through Pacific coast passenger
business. This action is taken with a view
to meeting the cuts made by the Canadian
Pacific road on Alaskan and Pacific coast
business. The roads which joined in the
petition include practically all of the
transcontinental roads and their tribu-
taries west of Chicago.
