Wilkes -Barre, Feb. 21. Thu common
wealth In the case of. Sheriff Atarlln
and the deputies on trial for Mhootlitg
striklns miners nt Lattimer, closed Its
case today, and lion. George S. Fer
ris opened for .tJio defense.
When court oppned there were only
two witnesses for tin prosecution re
maining to be heard. The first, James
Hennahau, of Lnttlmcr, ,ttd he reach
ed the coeno of the shooting shortly af
ter the firing began. Witness pointed
out a number of deputies whom he saw
there, tie spoke to Deputy Price, say
ing: "This is a bad business, Sam."
Price replied; "es, and I am glad
I did not shoot."
Alike Damsohnk, the last witness for
the commonwealth, save unimportant
testimony.
The defense In the Lattimer case
opened at noon today. Mr. Gearrje S.
Fen Id made the opening address, and
!!e,tklntf for over an hour ho presented
In detail the facts of the ease as the
defense hopes to prove them. In the
first placo it will endeavor to show
that there had been rioting throughout
the region, that the thorlfC was Justi
fied In calllnir out the posse and that
he was also Justified In ordering the
shooting at Ldttlmer 1? he deemed it
neegssary. lie said:
"We fchall show you that durins the
week prior to the Lattimer shooting
acts of riot nnd outrage were of r.iore
.than (Lilly occurrence. The relKti of
law had tvia place to a relftn of ter
ror. The highways were swept, by
surging masios of armed and desperate
men. Peaceful citizens were forced In
to their rankn. Thoso who resisted
were set upon, beaten, clubbed and
wounded some of them nigh until
death. The whole community was ter
rorized. The local authorities were
l.oweiless."
He then detailed the movements of
the fctrikirs from the tliiie thsy left
Hnrwood until thev reached Lattimer.
"There," he said, "the ?ln;nff advanced
alone to meet them. Instantly there
wns a tumult of yells, live or six men
pounced upon till; sheriff, helzed him,
shoved him Into a dltoh on the left of
the road and began b-jatln? li'lm. Two
of them nourished revolvers at him
and a third niado a savage stab at
him with a knife. The sheriff In his
struggles freed his tight arm and drew
Ill's revolver and snapped it at one of
his assailants. If would not go off.
Instantly the man, Novatna.strtick him
a vicious blow in the face with his list
and Knocked him to his knees. All at
once a revover shot rani? out from the
rushing mob then another- then three
close together then a rnttllns volley
from the iruns which lasted a few sec
onds, less than halt a minute, nnd
ceased when the mob nave away. The
order to fire was given, by whom we
do not know, but it was none too soon;
for the head of the charsliir: column
had rushed within liftoen feet of the
deputies' line before the attack was re
pulsed. That, gentleman, Is the story
of Lattimer as you will hear it from the
deputies. Wo txpect a verdict of ac
quittal. THE FIRST WITNESS.
The first witness for the defense was
Airs. Catherine Welsenborn. She said:
"The strikers gathered at Harwood on
the day of the shooting and one of
them, Gnsperick, who testified for the
state, entered Mike Konaski's house
and tried to get him to go out, crying:
'If you don't come, we'll kill you.' "
Konnski was in hiding and escaped,
and as the strikers departed they
cried: "We'll show the white people
what we'll do when we come back."
"I saw the strikers chase a number
of people. They were all armed with
clubs and stones and some had re
volvers," Airs. Eliza Grace, of Harwood, said
her husband ran into the brush when
he heard the strikers were approach
ing, he was afraid of them. "They
tramped through my fruit garden."
said Mrs. Grace, "nnd broke my bean
poles In two to make clubs. They
caught John Edmondson ulid would
havo taken him along forcibly had not
his wife clung to him and begged them
to relense him."
Mrs. Rose Gillespie, of Harwood, told
how she had sent her four boys into
the brush to hide, fearing the strikers
would hurt them.
Airs, Catherine Hrennan hid her fifteen-year-old
boy and went out to look
at the strikers. They were armed with
clubs, hammers and stones. One man
fired n shot in the air. Others fired In
to the brush, where many of the men
were hiding. Airs. Rrennan said she
saw Alartln Shrofronlck march into Joe
Shultz's house, crying that if he did
not come out lie would be killed.
Shultz was in hiding and could not be
found.
Airs. Michael Gallagher, of Harwood,
said she was stoned by the strikers and
Airs. Charles Allller said her husband
hud gone to West Hazleton when ho
heard the strikers were approaching.
This concluded the testimony for tho
day.

THE MARKETS.
Willi Street Review.
Now York, Feb. 21. Today's heavy de
cline In tho stock market was mado with
out any actual now development In tho
situation, but was rather to bo attribut
ed to a combination of Impressions which
have been tho underlying lorco In specu
lation for awcek or more. Today's mar
kot demonstrated for one thing that last
week's decline would havo been much
heavier on tho development s In tho Cu
ban question had It not been for the sup
port of powerful Interests who desired an
opportunity to renllze. Tho entire ab
sence of support today leavo color to the
supposition that those Interests had com
pleted their liquidation and were Indiffer
ent to tho courso of the market. Tne
motives assigned for the selling had less
nppnrcnt basis in fact than wcro fur
nished by tho events of lust week. So far
us they turned on tho Cuban question
they dealt with .peculations on possible
future events and on abstruse points ot
International law without any convincing
authority to back them. Whatever tho
real motive It was beyond dispute that
thero weto largo offerings of securities
for which there wns no adequate demand
and selling orders to stop losses were un
covered on tho descending scale, De
clines were so great that prices thnt
looked uttractlvo as bargains were
reached In many cases nnd the buying
thus Invited steadied and worked some
notablo recoveries. 'J his process was re
peated several times during the day and
the market closed with one of the rallies
In full force, thus leaving the declines de
cidedly smaller than the extreme declines
during tho day, The totul sales today
were 078,200 shaies.
