COEuR D'ALENE RIOTS.

B0rth0r Bv10on0o Bofo1o the Rouse In
vsstigating Oemmlttss.
WASHINGTON. March 10.-The Occur
d'Alene investigation was continued b.
fore tho house committee on military
affairs. The cross examination of Mr..
Forney which was in progress when tho
committee adjourned was not resumed
on account Of the illness of the witness.
Allen F. Gille of Spokane, WASH, =
mechanical engineer, was placed on the
stand by Mr.. Lent1. He held various
positions in Spokane and was master
mechanic for the Oregon Railway and
Navigation company before he became
master mechanic of the Tiger and Poor.
man Mining company of Burke. In
that position, among other duties, he
was charged with the employment and
discharge Of men in tho mine.
He testified that he was at Burke
April 20, 1899, the day the Bunker Hill
mine was blown up. The town was
unusually quiet. April 80 all the men
were at work except four. They con-
tinucd at work until tho Sd or 4th Of
May when numbers Of them, including
himself, were arrested by the military.
He testified that he had attempted to
continue at work. He had explained to
the officer in charge of the troops that
the manager Of the mine was absent,
and that great property interests de.
pended on him.
No Need Of Martial Law.
The officer, Major Morten, replied
that martial law had been declared and
that he would have to go to Wardner.
He testified that he had heard Major
Morten order some of his troops to break
into his (Gille's) house. The soldiers
broke in the door. lie noticed other
instances Of similar character. He
!; testified to general rude and harsh
treatment suffered by the arrested
miners at the handsof the troops. Later
, in the day he was released and went
j back to the mine with eight miners and
worked al night with than to get thu
water which had accumulated ont Of
, the mine. The only disturbance made
in Burke that day was the disturbance
created by the soldiery. There was no
necessity for the soldiers, he said, as
civil processes could have been served.
In his opinion the advent Of the military
defeated the ends Of justice. The guilty
parties escaped into Montana. Had the
military not been there many Of these
would have returned and could havo
been arrested.
+: Mr.. Gille testified that he had been
informed that no releases from the bull
pen would be made except on the order
of Bartlett Sinclair.

Mr.. ]. II. Battles wrote Attorney
General Bellenger making inquiries re-
garding communication tax collections to
which the Attorney General gave the
following answers
A man who becomes 81 the day after

A man moving to town in January
