UNION MAY FREE
MEN BY PAYMENT
Thought in Franklin County
$2,461.64 May Be Paid For
Convicted Strikers

Chambersburg. Pa, Nov. 10
Ian, in which he declined to remit
the fines and costs amounting 10
S2,461.64 imposed on the 5O-odd
Waynesboro strikers now serving Jail
sentences here, 1t was said the union
to which the men belonged would
try and pay the sum between now
and next Tuesday, on which day their
sentences expire. In default of pay
ment the convicted men will be
obliged to remain in jail 80 days
longer.
Tie men were convicted under five
cases, Nos. 40 to 40. The men of
each group must pay that group bill
OF fines and costs in toto in order
that any may go free. Fo< instance,
in No. 45-the so-called Greencastle
riot case-there were 81 men con-
victed. Some of these have prop
erty and are able to pay their share,
but in order that they may be free
the whole bill of $1.047.37 must be
paid. And thus 1t is with every
group. A number of the men were
convicted in several cases. John Doe
and his fellows in case No. 46 may
be able to pay their fines and costs,
but John Doe, also convicted in case
No. Al would be held If the fines
and costs in No. AZ were not paid
in full.
One of the strikers came to Jail
in his automobile. He also owns
several properties. Obviously he can
easily pay his share of the costs and
his fine. but until the bill for his
entire group is paid he will have to
remain in Jail, according to the law.
Occasionally people in Jail, unable
to pay fine and costs, "serve OUT
this by staying in Jail for 90 days.
1t is pointed out. however, In this
case that tie serving of 80 days
might not free a group, as long as
any member of that group was SOL
