Washington, May 22.-The author
Of charges against Judge Robert w,
Archibald, OF the court of commerce,
today told his story to the house ju-
ciciary committee. He is w. p. Bo-
land Of Scranton.
He began by declaring he had be-
come convinced that the coal rail-
reads in Pennsylvania were using
Judge Archibald and that st was not
the exception, but the rule, that Judge
Archibald was willing to serve the
railroads"
Boland related the history Of his
fight against alleged determinations
by the railroads. On one occasion, he
said, e. e. Loomis. vice president of
the Lackawanna railroad, said to him /:
"You have the devils nerve to at
tempt to sell coal along our line"
BolGnd referred to the case in which
the Marion Coal Company was de-
fendant in 1908 In Judge Archbald's
court. The witness said that at about
this time he had made complaint to
the interstate commerce commission
against the discrimination by the
railroads and that Immediately
things began to move" In the case
against him.
The way Judge Archibald ordered

Boland detailed the efforts OF At

IT. Il.. ..t.s; dselaxsd Judge Ar6bhald had
dent Loonnfs, OF the Lackawanra. to
come to Scranton to see watson.
watson told me- said Boland,
that Truesdale declared at this con-
ference what is this Judge to do in
this caseT Is this in the nature of a
hold up? I refuse to have anything to
do with IT."
Boland said he asked Watson why
he was asking the railroad $500
for the property when his company
was willing to sell for 100000.
We'll we have to settle with Judge
Archibald" Watson was credited with
saying.
Il said I thought the Judge was
helping you through friendship"
oh, the Judge would not take your
