& &cranton. Pa, Nov. 1S.-In the pres
70 of as many persons as could be
med into the superior court room
erday, Wayne MacVeagh, for the
e Company, and John Mitchell, for
miners, continued their brilliant
tie of cross--examinatiOn before the
hracite coal commission. Mr.. Mitch
was on the stand when the COM
ison adjourned yesterday after
bn. The fourth demand Of the un-
Il which calls for a yearly trade
eement, and which means a straight
recognition of the union, was the
be of contention, and although four
hrs were taken up in a discussion of
question, not much material pro-
ISIS was made.
wayne MacVeagh, skilled in the art
ross-examination, attempted to
pw the utter responsibility of the
4on and its unfitness to make con-
cts which 1t could not live up to.
principal argument was the al
ed boycott, and he often hard
kssed the miners president for an
swer. The latter, however, slowly
deliberately gave some reply, but
" did not always satisfy his inquisi-
I. Mr.. MacVeagh, in the presence OF
assemblage, expressed his admira-
n of the ability of the witness, and

rried a question regarding the boy
