Monopoly of Labor
All the anthracite coal in the United
States is found in few counties of Penn
sylvania. The conditions of mining are SO
different in different fields and even in the
same that it is not practicable to adopt
any uniform method of mining for the
whole region. The respondents will show
that it is the acknowledged purpose of the
United Mine Workers of America to Or
&anize all coal mine employees and thus
form monopoly of the labor needed for
the fuel supply dema nded by the comfort
and prosperity of the American people. se
After the strike settlement OF 1900
union men refused to work with non-un-
ion men and there were over 100 strikes in
one year in various parts OF the anthra-
cite region. Unreasonable demands not
being acceded to the United Mine Workers
ordered a strike May II. 1902 though a
large part of the miners of the region were
opposed to it. Men were prevented by
violence from filing the strikers places
mines were filled with water and had it
not been for the operators strenuous eff
forts to. keep pumps going, few miners
would have been able to get work after
the resumption. Had the union succeeded
IN stopping the pumps little or no coal
could have been furnished the public in
the winter OF 1923.
No Question of "Recognitlon.'
'"The respondents concede the right OF
labor to organize for its protection an6
to benefit the conditions of the laborel
but they feel that to be subject to any
control of bituminous coal organization
composed of boys, as well as men would
end in the ruin of the anthracite Goa
business in Pennsylvania.

New York Sun Special Service. ... ..."
Parkersburg, w. Va. Dec. 16--While
Rev. John ChenoWeth was conducting
services at Bethel church near Glade, in
Barbour county, the congregation was at
tackled by twenty armed horseme!l, who
began firing into the church First the
windows were broken with voley of
stones and then nearly 100shots were
fired from .revolvers The minister and
congregation fled They were pursued by
the attacking party and sought refuge in
the woods. i I" r.-=
Mr.. Chenoweth, bruised and bleeding,
arrived with one or two Of its congrega-'
ton at Belington. the nearest telegraph
station, late last night and told his story.
He had been pursued with unrelenting
fury and had been fired at several times
after leaving the church.
He and his companions reported that
several Of the congregation who had gone
in other directions had been shot, but
they could give no names or details.
The object Of the attacking party is not
known. The hofsemen were all strang-
ers and it is supposed INDUCED in ths
shooting and chase merely as drunken
prank. but If any of them is caught it is
probable that the formality of a trial
| will rot be waited for.
