The ArbitratOrs Listen TO Testimony
for Mine Operators Gen. Goblin Dee
tends Ills Famous "Shoot to Kiil''
Order.
Philadelphia, Jan. 10.-After occu-
pying eight days, during which time
they presented about $50 witnesses,
the non-union men who are party
to the arbitration agreement closed
their case yesterday before the coal
strike commission.
The principal witness before the
commission was Lieut.. Gov. Goblin,
senior brigadier general of the ma
tional guard of Pennsylvania. Gen.
Goblin was in command of the Third
brigade during the time the troops
were on duty in the hard coal fields.
He was on the stand three hours and
half, and during most of that time
was engaged in n recital of the con-
ditions as he found them in the ter
ritory he covered.
The now famous "shoot to kill'' or
der issued by him after his soldiers
had been attacked by stones, was
touched upon by Mr.. Darrow, coun-
sci for the miners. The general said
|
the issuance of the order had sal
utary effect upon the communities
which his soldiers covered. 1t had
such good effect that it was not
necessary to fire one shot. The order,
he said, did not include the shooting
of women and children.

ccedings before the anthracite coal
