ton by C. S. Darrow, counsel for the
miners, Mr.. Culver said that the Della
ware & Hudson Co. was selling coal to
middlemen at tideWater at five dollars
ton for prepared sizes. He did not
know what prices the middlemen were
receiving from the public beyond what
he read in the daily newspapers His
examination closed with the suggestion
that the general sales agent of the CON-
pany, Thomas T. Torrey Of New York.
should inform the commission of what
he knew on this feature of the coal
trade, and Mr. Torrey was telegraphed
to come to Philadelphia as soon as con-
venient.
c. c. Rose of Scranton, head of the
coal department of the Delaware &
Hudson Co., who testified on Saturday.
was recalled. He stated that several
of the companys collieries were flooded
as a result of the strike of the steam
men on June ?. On cross examination
he said he would rather let the mines
fill with water than submit to unreas-
enable demands made by union. He
considered that the strikers were die
tating to the company, and rather than
surrender a principle he would let the
property become damaged.
George Anderson, OF Scranton, a clerk
in the coal department of the company,
presented numerous statistics bearing
upon the issues before the commission.
One of the statements showed that 2,382
of the company's 1925 employees have
been working in or about the mines
from ten to sixty years. He produced
| data showing the workings Of the COM
| panys relief fund, with which more
| than 5000 of the companys employees
are connected. The workers pay to the
fund one days pash each year. the
company contributing an equal amount.
Men who are injured receive six dollars
week for three months. and in case
of death their heirs receive fifty dollars
| for funeral expenses. The widows re-
| ceive three dollars a week for one year
and one dollar a week for a year for
each child under twelve years of age.
The company fixed s2.18 as the amount
contract miner should contribute as
days pay.
! Mr.. Anderson also presented state
ment showing that the tWonty~eight

were lost on account of picnics and
other holidays mnt including legal hol-
! idays), fifty-nine days on account of
Mitchell day" and other union days,
and 1914 days on account of strikes and
suspensions.
Another statement offered by the wit
ness showed that since the strike ended
in the latter part of October the TWEEN
| ty-eight collieries lost 10 days, reduc-
ing the coal production of the company
| 90. 5S1 tons. The men had been request
ed to work on THANKSGIVING day and
New Years day, but they ignored the
request he said. None Of the miners
worked on mitchell day" he added
and twelve collieries were idle the day
after Christmas.
| Mr. DarroW on cross eXa mination,
disputed the method Of the witness in
arriving at the conclusions contained
in the statement. There was consid r
able difference of opinion between Mr.
Darrow and the witness concerning the
i daily average production of the conf
