Men Testify as to Acts of Violence
Against Them During Anthra-
cite Strike.
Witnesses Shot at, Their Homes Set
on Fire and Other Outrages
Committed.
Counsel for Miners Object to Unsup-
ported Testimony and Manner of
Questioning.

Scranton, Pa, Dec. 19.--The attor-
neys for the nonunion men resumed
the calling of witnesses before the
violence was committed during the
progress of the strike. AS soon as the
hearing opened at 10 o'clock the wage
statements of the Delaware, Iacka-
wanna and Western and Philadelphia
and Reading Coal and Iron companies.
were filed with the commission.
The first witness called said mem
Der of the miners union threatened to
kill him if he did not stop working and
finally did shoot at him. The Of
fender was sent to prison.
The next witnesses were John Hoff-
man and his son, both of whom were
working at the Upper Lehigh colliery
assisting in putting in new boiler,
and the sons wife. They told how a.
crowd of strikers came at midnight to-
harm the son, who fed i've miles to-
another town, and how the crowd
smashed the furniture and attempted
to burn the house
The next witness related the story
of himself and wife being hung in eff
fgy in the streets Of Nanticoke, the
efigy of the wife being of a character
most offensive
Mrs. Kate Mcnamara of Parsons,
the mother of four small children.
whose husband was in the mines and
could not come home for fear Of bodily
harm. testified that her home was de-

her children were rescued with diff
Guilty
Counsel for the miners called the
commissions attention to the fact that
the fire had not been connected with
the strikers and objected to the other
side bringing in evidence of alleged
violence by strikers when they cannot
prove it.
Chairman Gray said while the evil
dence did not directly connect the
strikers with the fire the inference
was that the fire was most probably
of incendiary origin.
Other witnesses were called prior to,
the noon recess to prove they were,

the Reading Railroad company hold
out no hope for relief in the anthra-
cite. coal stringency this winter, de-
spite the efforts Of the company to
mine and ship to it's full capacity.
Under normal conditions said one
of the officials, "the anthracite pro-
duction is never equal to the demand
during the winter months and the
Reading and all other anthracite COM
panies have been obliged to draw upon
the stock at various storage points to
help out the demands of the trade.
This year there is not a pound of coal
at any Of these storage points and
consumers are dependent entirely upon
the daily output of the mines The
dealers in New England. who usually
have il stock at this season of the
years from $4,000 to 100000 tons. are

upon what is being shipped to them by

1t is stated that the Pennsylvania
Railroad company has 5000 of tbs
Reading company's coal cars on it's
tracks in the western part of the state
as well as $500 belonging to the Cen
trail Railroad of New Jersey and these
are urgently needed in the anthTa-
cite trade. Their non-delivery. it is
claimed, is causing much delay in the
shipment of anthracite to points west
of Harrisburg. g
Reading company officials decline to
discuss the question as to whether the
advance of so cents ton made in Oc-
tober would hold good during 1908, but
they admitted that it would certainly
rule beyond Jan. 1, 1903, the date fxed
by President Baer for reduction to
the old rate. An operator who attend
ed the meeting of the operators in New
/ York stated that the advance would be
retained during all of next year.
