Washington, Sept 9.-In the case OF
the contempt proceedings against Sam
uel Gompers, John Mitchell and Frank
Morrison of the American Federation
of Labor, in connection with the Buck
Stove & Range company. today Judge
Gould decided to appoint an examiner
10 take testimony. and Albert Harper
was designated to perform that service.
Thirty days was given to each side
for the purpose of taking testimony.
Judge Parker on Hand.
Judge Alton b. Parker, chief counsel
for the Federation. came TO the court
room early. Messrs. Gompers, Mitchell
and Morrison were also on hand.
Daniel Davenport of Bridgeport.
Conn.,, and w. c. Sullivan of this city
appeared for the stove company.
The proceedings were begun with a
request by Mr.. Sullivan for a postpone
ment of the case in order that testi-
mony might be taken This applica-
ton was vigorously opposed by Judge
Parker, who asked for an immediate
hearing. Mr.. Davenport read at length
from the petition for the punishment of
Gompers, Mitchell and Morrison. and
from their replies he contended that
there had been an Intentional incite-
ment to the labor unions to action in
contempt of the court, and he contend
ed that the law had been misstated for
this purpose.
Not Allowed to Explain.
Judge Parker suggested If given an
opportunity now. Mr.. Mitchell could ex-
plain in five minutes the apparent in
consistency which Mr.. Davenport con-
tended was present in Mitchelrs ex-
PLANTATION of his conduct as chairman
of the convention of the United Mine
Workers of America when a resolu-
ton criticising the decree of the court
was adopted by that body.
oh said Mr.. Davenport. MIR.
Mitchell will find many things to an
swer as to whether that statement is
true or wilfully false"
Judge Parker replied that Mr.. Mitch
ellis reputation for veracity was equal
TO that of any man.
The court. upon the formal request
of counsel for the Buck company, de-
cided to appoint Albert Harper an ex-
aminer to take testimony. and gave
each side thirty days in which TO be
heard. thus in effect postponing the
final hearing for two months.
