THE STRIKE HEARING
Enlivened by Sharp Passages Between
Counsel and Witnesses.

Philadelphia, Feb. 4.-Several in
teresting incidents occurred during to-
days sessions of the anthracite coal
strike commission. The morning ses-
sion was enlivened by the rigid cross
examination of H. D. Newcomb, a
statistician of the Reading Coz, by At
torney barrow, for the miners, and
the spirited passages between the wit
ness and the lawyer. sd
At the afternoon session counsel for
the operators intimated that the other
side was endeavoring to break it's
agreement with the operators regard
ing the basis of percentage in arriving
at a definite conclusion as to the earn
ings of contract miners.
The miners expect to conclude their
evidence in rebuttal, tomorrow.
The testimony of miners employed
by the Delaware, Lackawanna &
Western, the Pennsylvania Coal Co.
and the Temple Iron co. occupied
much of the time of todays sessions.
H d. Newcomb, the statistician who
testified for the Reading Co., Monday,
was recalled for eress- examination

FALLING WALLS
Continued from page ~

The fire was temporarily abandoned
until the injured firemen were eXtri-
Gated and the bodies of the dead mer
recovered.
Meantime the flames had gained
renewed Roadway and only the heroic
efforts of the fire fighters, aided by
an absence of much wind. and the
fact that the buildings had been
thoroughly soaked by today's rain, pre-
vented the destruction of ST. Michaers
church and the rectory.
1t was after o'clock, before the
danger to the adjoining buildings was
passed.
The financial loss is not so great
but the loss of life is the most appall-
ing the department has ever expert
enced.
1t is not known how the fire orr
ginated.
Father Clement F. Cusack was near
by when the walls fell and had mar
row escape.
The dead men both leave families

Ivan, widow and three children.
