SHARP CLASH OF OPINION

philadalnhia January 20.-When the an+bracite coal strike commission ad- 3ourned today, the 4OOth witness sum moned before the arbitrators was peihs examined. Of the 4OO 174 were called py the striking mine workers, 155 by the nom union men, 63 by the operators ana o py the commission The Delaware Lacka- wanna and Western Railroad company concluded its case today, and the Temple Iron company began the presentation oA its side of the controversy,
 Today's testimony did not bring out anything particularly new. There was an interesting clash of opinion during the morning session between Chairman Gray and Attorney c. s. Darrow, TOT the miners, on the question of the rights cf the union man.
 Union Mans Rights.
 MT. Darrow believed a union man had the right to refuse a non-union man cars in the mines, and also had the right to use every power within the law in per suading union men from working with non-unon workers. The unionists' he said, have no right to kill, assault or islander any man. Chairman Gray re- marked that the employer has his rights, too; that is he has the right to refuse to employ union labor. MT. Darrow agreed with him.
 During the examination in chief of Thomas Williams district superintend- ent of the Lackawanna company, he said the steam men do not work very hard at night and they get a chance to sleep On cross examination he testified that the company does not permit It's men to sleep while on duty.
 A S. Baker of Scranton, auditor of tue mining department of the Delaware, Lackawanna and Western presented to the commission the company wage state ments showing the wages paid to all of its employees. He also harded up much data on other features of the coal min ing industry. A summary of the wage statement of the contract miners for 1901 follows
