TO GET u. S. PROTECTION
Frank Bache Says in 1914 He De-
termined to Break Away From
Union Labor.
BY the Associated Press.

FORT SMITH, Ark. October 25.--
Operation of the Bache-Deman mines.
IN the Hartford valley, was turned
over to the Mammoth Vein Coal Min
ing Company of West Virginia in
1914 in order to obtain federal in
junction protection against violence,
Frank Bache of Philadelphia, head
of the syndicate, declared yesterday
IN concluding his testimony at the
retrial of the S2.222,00 damage slift
brought by the Coronado Coal Com
pany and other operators against
the United Mine Workers of America.
Mr.. Bache testified that In 1914 he
determined to operate his mines on
an open-shop basis in an effort to
reduce costs, increase tonnage, ex-
tend markets md make some money"
His attorneys advised him, he said.
that he could not get federal court
protection against violence unless
the mine was operated by q foreign
corporation. For that reason. he de-
clared, he turned the properties over
to the West Virginia concern.
On croSS-eXamination Mr.. Bache de-
MED that he had made the arrange
mcnt in order that he might violate
his contract with the miners union.
That contract had been broken and
violated time and time again." he
declared, answering a question by
counsel for the union. II did not
consider that it existed at ALL"
Much OF the session of the court
was taken up with the introduction
by the plaintiffs of records and docu-
ments, many of which were offered
at the former trial.
