picion that hi is the Jack the Hug

complaints have reached the police de-

Saturday night the offender was
caught in the act of embracing two
young girls. 1t is said his mind is af-

girls whistled to him and enticed him
on. He does not seem to think he has
done anything to make an outcry
about. Soon after being arrested he

POINTS FROM THE RECORD

That Conference with Hanna in 1900
Politics and Strikers.
During the examination the fact
was brought out that Mitchell had tele-
phone conferences with Senator Hanna
lust previous 70 the settlement of the
strike of 1900. Il believe" said Mitch
ell, that the fact that an election
was pending iraG something TO do with
the early settIemr 1t of the strike"
later S<itrhell said the guards en-
ployed to protect mine property were
very largely roughs from the slums
of Philadelphia, and some time later
Watkins took a hand i'll the eXamina-
ton and it was brought out that none
of the pickets employed by the COM
panies represented by MacVeagh had
been recruited outside of the COM
munity. MacNeagh then read Govern
or Stones proclamation calling out
the troops, in which the governor said
there was Il reign of terror in the re-
gion. Mitchell denied the correctness
of the governors assertions.
During another lively rally Mitch
ell said this was a country of ma
jorities, whereupOn MacVeagh replied:
''Yes, but God with one is a majority.
If man is doing right He is on his
side" The court room was convulsed
when Mitchell answered that he would
be willing to leave the whole dispute
to God.
MacVeagh asked the witness why he
could not use his influence to put an
end to boycotting and to further in
timidation OF men, women and chill
dren whose lives have been made un-
endurable. Mitchell responded that it
was the very fathers and husbands of
these people who had themselves made
their families lives uncomfortable.

POPE SIGNS THE BRIEF FOR
NEW APOSTOLIC DELEGATE
Rome, Nov. 1S.-The pope today
signed brief appointing Mgr. Sbar-
retti apostolic delegate in Canada.

mOcracy III the purest and broadest
sense"
Referring 10 the boycott again Mac
Veagh read a long list of cases of boy
colt and violence. and referring to one
of the cases Mitchell said that any re-
fusal to supply men and their families
with the necessaries of life was wrong.
He defended the calling out of the
pumpmen in a demand for better
wages, etc, the workman's one re-
course when his demand is refused Is
to strike.
MacVeagh again referred to his pa
pers, and mentioned number of in
stances of intimidation and mob vio-
lence on the part of the miners, but
Mitchell declared that in most cases he
had never heard of them. MacNeagh
cited the commission of fourteen muir
ders in the anthracite region. ''How
do You explain the coincidence be-
tween the Inauguration of your strike
and the killing of more men than were
killed in the battle of Santiago" Mac
Veagh asked. Mitchell insisted that
number of them were killed by the coal
and iron police stationed at the mines
by the operators. Looking over the
list of dead Mitchell mentioned the
names of four who were members of
the union.
The number of persons seriously in
jured during the strike was next gone
into by MacVeagh. Can you account
for that" said he. except upon the
theory that the violent spirit was en-
couraged by your officers?'
81 do not think our officers encour-
aged violence" Mitchell replied.
