SENATE DISCUSSES COAL
Senator Vests Tariff Resolution tn
Theme OF Debate.

Senator Vests Tariff Resolution the
Theme OF Debate.
Washington, Jan. S.--Mr. Aldrich Or
~ during the day addressed the senate
on the resolution offered by Mr.. Vest
directing the finance committee to re
port a bill removing the duty ON an.
thracite coal.
He began by stating that the resolu.
ton would not afford the relief sought
1t infringed the rights of the house
with respect to revenue bills.
"The attempt to afford relief" said
Mr.. Aldrlch, (which the senator says
is demanded through a method that
would open a discussion here as to the
constitutional rights of the senate and
the constitutional prerogative Of the
house, discussion which in its very
nature would outiast the coal famine,
is not practicable method of securing
results"
The resolution, he asserted, was sim
ply to furnish a text for q political
speech or a series of political speeches.
He recited the legislation which had
been enacted to relieve the people in
times of distress and said he was not
entirely hopeless that some means
might not be found for relief
Mr.. Vest replying, said Mr. Aldrlch's
remarks could be read between the
lines. He simply was opposed to the
resolution. He said 1t was an open Sc.
cret how the rate of 40 cents a ton was
put on coal in the Wilson bill. There
were five Democratic senators opposed
to the bill who were in such position
to dictate what should be placed in the
bill and that their votes We're needed
to pass the measure. President, Cleye-
land. he said, had urged free coal OH
congress.
1--WE were held up" said Mr.. Vest, ito
use plain vernacular, and told If we
dared to put free coal In the bill 1t
would be defeated. A compromise
Therefore was effected ON the basis Of
40 cents a ton."

.BONUNlON TESTIMONY
latest Evidence Heard by the CcaI
Strike Commission.

e8sA IA fH
Philadelphia, Jan. S.-The first wit
ness of the day called by counsel for
the nonunion miners before the coal
strike commission was Mrs. Lilly
Stevenson of Schuylkill county, whose
husband worked during the strike in
the Silver Brook colliery of the Phila-
delphia and Reading Coal and Iron
company. She was an eyewitness to
an assault made upon her husband by
strikers
She testified that after her husband
had been knocked down twice she pick
ed up a stone and threw it at the men
committing the assault. She was then
seized and held while the beating con-
tinued. Her husband was internally
injured.
Mrs. Robert Robinson of Tower City
told Of an attack being made ON Der
home becatlse her husband worked
during the strike. She was particular
~ bitter against her brother-in-law,
James Lewis. who, she said, led the
mob.
Harry Curnow of Hazleton, an extra
engineer. said he struck, hut. as the
union gave him no relief he returned
to work on Aug. %. On Aug. %, while
on his way to work, he said he was at
tackled by q crowd of unknown men
and beaten unconscious.
Michael Weldon Of 'Mahanoy City, d
fire boss employed by the Reading COM
pany, said strikers refused to allow
him to go to work and that his house
was damaged by dynamite.
Anthony Ferguson, outside foreman
at the North Mahanoy colliery. said he
was beaten while on his way to work.
On cross examinations he said he had
never cheated the men under him.
Assailants Convicted.
Ferguson said he recognized two of
his assaiIalts, and they were arrested
and convicted. Commissioner Parker
asked If the two men had beenexpelied
by the Miners union, and Terrence
Ginley. member Of the executive
board Of the United Mine Workers,
was called and asked If the men had
been. expelled. He replied that he did
not know. He explained that the I'M
ion had done all in its power to prevent
iawlessness.
Chairman Gray asked what had been
done to raise the organization out of
the mire and darkness that the testi-
nony tended to show. President Mitch
ell took exception to Judge Gray's re-
marks and said the coal companies
were bringing witnesses here to testify
against strikers and indirectly against
the miners union. No crime had been
fastened on the union, Mitchell said,
and he did not want the impression to
go out that 1t was dragginginthe mire.
Chairman Gray said the testimony
before the commission certainly involv-
ed the union, and he said he would like
to see the union disentangle itself.
Judge Gray mentioned the Shenandoah
riot and said be had not heard a word
of evidence that one union man in the
crowd of thousand men and boys
present when Beddell was killed cried,
'Shame on your
Continuing. Ginley said many men
would not testify before the commits.
sion for fear of being discharged and
cited the instance of a man named
Clark employed at tile Bast collieiy,
near Scranton who was refused work
after he had testified. The commissions
ers made Il note of this case and said
they would look into 1t. Y

MONEY STRINGENCY
What the London Statist Says Of
the Situation.

London, March 16.--Ihe decline of British ma
tonal credit Is undoubtedly due to the sale in
America of large portion of the 500. 900. 0GU
OF consols held there together with American
money market. 1t is not considered probable in
London, Paris Berlin that there will be any
substantial relief of this strngency in the near
future. 1t is recognized that American condi-
tons will control the monetary situation for the
next few weeks. and in the absence of necessary
legislation by the United States it is not under
stood how the abnormal and unnecessary shortage
of money can be remedied.
The Statist urges that President Roosevelt
should call congress In special session and com
pei 1t to take special measures for relief of the
money market. If this is done. the Statist ez-
poets that the president will request that pow er
be given the secretary Of the treasury to lodge
the customs we'll as internal revenues with
the government depository banks. of course. on
good security. If this is done. it would clearly
add to the resources at the disposal of the mar
ket, and. therefore, diminish considerably the
shortage In the autumn. Perhaps if congress is
convened for the special purpose of dealing with
courage and pass much more comprehensive
measure. In the first place. the banks now
required to keep in cash either Is p per
cent of the deposits, and must not touch those
reserves. no matter what may happen to the
trading community. Says the Statist: We
suggest that this should be modified to this eX-
tent that the banks should he allowed to use.
in lending and discounting. part of the reserves.
provided they pay duty of say per cent to the
government Furthermore the banks now
required to lodge in the treasury security
for their note circulation bonds of the United
States. but these bonds are so scarce and dear
that this is not profitable. especially the law
forbids the banks to reduce their circulation
quickly. The banks should he allowed to issue
notes the security of gold

Mr. Tyner wrote a, letter to the Arnold
Turf Investment company, part of which
was used by the company in its published

facts quoted in support of the charges

was to the effect that the case against
