To he BIewn Up.

Washington, April 3.-Frsderiok Bnr-
bridge, mansger Of the Bunker Hin aud
Sullivan mine, was the chief witness ut
the Occur d'Alsne Investigation today.
IL was the mill Of this company which
was blown up In the uprising last April.
Brigadier general Carlin was to have
continued his testimony Of the insurrsc-
tion in 1892, but his official report Of that
occurrence was accepted a. sufficient and
he then gave way to Mr.. Burbri3gs.
Mr.. Burbridgs took charge Of the mine

stances leading up to the strike. Mr.. Bur-
bridge said be resolved frequent warn
ings that he would be killed snd the
mine blown up. Representative Sulssr
asked for the names Of those giving the
warnings.
MIR. Burbridas declined to give the
name saying IL would impsril the lives OF
those who gave the warnings. The Idaho
courts upheld him, he said. In this re-
fusaj to divulge names.
Mr.. Sulzsr protested but the com mittee
on vote, permitted the witness to pro-
ceed without disclosing names. Mr.. Bur
bridge told OF tss warning message re-
csived by him Of the arming Of eight
hundred men, the putting on OF masks
and the details OF the march on the mill.
"Where are these messagesi" asked Mr..
Sulzsr.
"Blown mp with the mill" replied the
witness.
The cross-sxsmination brought out. that
the company discharged men when 1t
was learned they belonged to union.

that there shall be no discrimination
against members..of an organization. The
witness said lie stated only the policy and
facts In the case. not the law. He con-
ceded that the non-empoyman Of union
men might have smbittsred them.
