Of an unusual character were made
during the investigation OF the inter-
state commerce commission into the
alleged discrimination by railroad com
panles in the distribution OF cars to
coal companies In the bituminous re-
gion. Three important witnesses were
heard In the persons OF George W.

and eastern manager OF the Keystone
Coal * Coke company. and John NJ.
Jamison, OF Greensburg. Pa. president
OF the Jamison Coal a. Coke company
Mr. Creighton admitted that he held
stock in several coal companies and
that the stock had been presented to
him Creighton also confessed that spe-
cial orders for car distribution on his
division came direct from Broad Street
Station in the shape of kilograms. that
at least 80 per cent OF the cars were
distributed in such way. and that when
arbitrary" cars had been also deduct
ed from the general supply. few were
left to supply the demands OF small
shippers.
Mr. Jamison testified that his COM
pany had presented Pennsylvania rail-
road officials with stock In his COM
pany with the object of securing better
treatment and facilities from the cor
pOration. He also said that Robert Pit
earn. now assistant TO President Cas-
catt, had declined proffer of stock
saying that he preferred the money
Mr. Jamison bought the stock back
from him for $4,000

ing. Mr.. Jamison said that the car sit
uation had been so bad they felt they
needed railroad man IN the company.
and he thought Pitcairn would be a
useful man
Robert X. Cassatt told the commits
sion that AT time when the Pennsyl-
vania Railroad company was suffering
from scarcity OF coal cars It had re-
linquished its claim 10 500 cars ordered
from the Pressed Steel Car company
and that the cars had been purchased
by the Keystone Coal Cake com
pany.
Another interesting witness was
George w Clark. Pennsylvania rail-
road car distributor at Altoona. He
told of having received monthly
check for $50 from Captain Alfred
Hicks. a mine operator. and stated that
he did not know why the money was
sent 10 him.

Mr. Clarke spent few minutes con-
tracing his eyebrows and wrinkling

But, though Crawford inculcated
manners, he by no means neglected
spelling. Abe was a good speller and
liked to use his knowledge not only to
secure honors for himself, but to help
his less fortunate schoolmates out of
their troubles, and he was exceedingly
ingenious in the selection of expedients
for conveying prohibited hints. One
day Crawford gave out the difficult
word "defied." A large class was on
the floor, but they all provokingly fail
