The first witnesses this morning
was 7. l.. Mccoy. who testified yes.
terday and who was recalled for the
purpose OF correcting his testimony
given yesterday.
Arnold C. Cole. a iitney driver of
Lowell. who also followed the same
occupation during the strike OF 1877
testified as 10 how he found condi-
tons throughout the strike, his tes-
timony being similar TO practically
all other state witnesses. He saw
the deportation, he said. and that af-
ternoon four men tore a union card
from his car down in Lowell. He
they were working. he said in ar
swer 10 cross-examination. but he
would haul anybody be they Wobblies
or gunner. He didn't stop at the
picket lines long enough TO hear
what was being said.
Thomas English OF Florence, told
how he was deported. He did not
go out on strike. but had quit wor5
several days before the strike. He
was taken out of the Belmont hotel
along with a number OF others and
taken to Warren and deported. One
man he knew offered TO get him out
of line on condition that he would
go back to work, but he refused h,
said. Characterization was mostly
as to his testimony during the pre-
liminary trials held at Douglas and
his knowledge OF working conditions.
He did not know what the demands
of the miners were, he said
John J. Ryan. deputy sheriff at
the present time under Sheriff Jas.
Mcdonald and then deputy sheriff
under Harry Wheeler testified that
he was in the Warren District from
July 4th until the day OF the depor-
tation, having returned from Califo--
mia on the 4th. He said the strike
only one fight near the postoffice,
when a man refused to remove his
hat when the band played the ma
tionai anthem. He thought Sheriff
Wheeler separated the men, but did
not think any arrests were made.
He heard no threats during the
strike, he said and was on the pick
ct lines every day. He saw only one
man bleeding the day Of the depor-
tation and al Warren heard several
offers made to men that they could
come out of line provided they would
return 10 work.
Sheriff Mcdonald was recalled and
asked ii he heard a Mexican named
Dorame make speech az the city
park on July II. but said he did
not hear it.
Harry Midkiff deputy sheriff. said
he heard working men curse the
pickets bu; the pickets were very Or
DERBY and did not curse back at them.
When the question relative to the
conversation alleged to have been
held with Ingraham at the hospital
was asked it was then that the
point which may mean much toward
the final outcome of the Wootten
case was raised.
This afternoon the cross examina-
ton Of Deputy Sheriff H. d. Midkifs
was completed and related to his
sympathy with the strike, and trip
made to Ell Paso after the Wootten
case had been started in an effort
to get Judge Dan NJ. Jackson to come
to Tombstone to assist in the depor-
tation trial. He said he made the
trip and had a conversation with him
but went at the instigation OF r. N.
French. county attorney.
