Grand Ilnpldh Letter in the Sun.
The samples shown at the spring
opening of the furniture manufactur
ing trade In this city Indicate that in
bedroum furniture mahogany is far In
the lead in popular demand, with birds
eye maple holding second place, and
oak, which a few years ago almost
monopolized the market, a distant
third. In dining-room furniture oak
nnd mahogany divide the honors; In
hall furniture oak is used almost en
tirely, and In the library It Is oak and
mahogany, with the latter leading.
The man who ays from $lf,0 to $500
for a fine mahogany bedroom suit and
imagines he Is getting the real thing
Is mistaken. Some solid mahogany fur
niture Is manufactured, chleilv 'fancy
cabinets, desks, nnd small tables; but
of the general mahogany furniture put
on the market not one piece In a thou
sand, not one In ten thousand, is ma
hogany all the way through. The ma
hogany is only skin deep, and ir all
that enters Into the constructlin of the
average bedroom suit could bo brought
together there would scarcely be
enough of It to make n respectable stick
of stove wood.
Modern furniture Is not solid, but Is
built up. It has a body of elm, ash or
basawood, with an outer layer of ma
hogany and this outer layer or surface
is so thin that thirty-two lnveis of it
will make scarcely an inch. In some
classes of work It would require 100 or
even zw layers to make nn Inch. A
large proportion of the oak furniture
seen In the market Is constructed In
the same way. The same is true of the
blrdseye maple and curly birch furni
ture. If the owner of a modern suit of
mahogany furniture wants to test this
statement, let him take a penknife and
sink a shaft Into tho wood. He will
tlnd the surface of mahogany thirty
two thicknesses to the Inch. Heneath
this, with the grain running at right
nngles to the surface wood will be a
layer of ash, basswood, or elm, In thick
ness from four to sixteen layers to the
Inch. Beneath this will be found an
other layer of tho Fame cheap wood,
with the grain running crosswise to
tho second, and so It will continue un
til the last layer Is reached, and then
If this Is In a place exposed to view, us
In the Interior of n drawer. It will be
of mahogany, as thin and frail as the
outer surface. Tho panel will be found
to have been built up, and to consist
of from five to seven distinct layers of
wood, each layer running crosswise In
grain to its neighbors and all bound
together Into a solid mass with glue.
It Is a construction that will never
warp, swell, Bhrlnk or crack. Earh of
the Inner layers, thoroughly kiln dried
In advance, Is protected by Its double
coating of glue, nnd the varnish out
side makes It Impervious to atmos
pheric changes. Even though mahog.
any were as abundant as plno nnd
economy In Its use were unnecessary.
It would still be veneered Instead of
used solidly, because In no bther way
can the beautiful grain and figure In
the wood be so effectively brought out.
An ordinary mahogany log, plain sawed
or quartered, might yield a few finely
figured pieces of lumber, but tho same
log converted Into veneers would yield
enough to cover the front of a brick
Mock, nnd each piece bo a dream which
human art could not duplicate In de
sign and coloring,

Substituted In Its Mend.
AVIIkcs-Hai-M, Feb. 23. There was Joy
among tho Mnrtln Jurors today when
Judge Woodward told them they could
at any time take baths at a bath house
wher everybody else would be exclud
ed. They have been occupying thnlr
ctamped court house quarters now for
three weeks.
The monotonous lino of testimony
crept along today us usual. Michael
Urennan testified that hn ran for the
brush when some striker tried to enp
ture him. Two shots were tired, but
he managad to escape.
August Wlnnock, who worked all
Cranberry. t6stlfled that on Sent. .1,
seven days before the fatal shooting,
a crowd of strikers told The workmen
there they must quit or they would
be hurt. He and others went homo.
On the duy before the sooting they tried
again to work but were stopped on the
road nnd told thsy ivoul.l be killed If
they wont to the workings. They went
heme.
Ludwlpr Laub?, of Cranberry, stated
that he refused to go h'omo when or
dered to do so by the strikers and In
consequence he was struck In the back
witli :i stone thrown by a striker, and
badly hurt. Witness said he was so
.ifrai 1 of tiie strikers that he carried
a revolver for the first time in his life.
Nine other witnesses gave evidence
of a corroborative nature concerning
the alleged belligerency of the strikers
before tha tshootlng occurred.
STUIKKIIS "U'EUE KIOTOUS.
Jacob AVIlllams, tlms keeper of the
Cranbtvry breaker, gave some Interest
ing testimony relative to the move
ments of the strikers from Sept, I! to
Sept. 20. "On Sept. 3, a week ef ore
the slnotlng," he said, "the McAdoo
strikers stoned tho breaker office at
Cranberry. They stopped a coal train
and stoned the conductor and engineer.
They were armed Willi clubs and pieces
of Iron. They tried to stop the Crys
tal Ftldge trippings on Sept. 7. They
weiv sixty or .seventy of them, but the
i he tiff and four deputies were pres
ent. Tlie sheriff told them they weie
doing wrong and violating the law, and
they went back again."
"On Sept. 10 we got word that the
Harwood strikers were coming. I saw
them marching Into Crystal Ridge and
saw several small parties leave the
main body and run to the houses to
bring out the men living there. The
men lied to the bushes, but a few were
caught and compelled to Join the strik
ers. When the main body reached the
breaker they armed themselves with
clubs and Iron staves from the scrap
heap and then marched on to West
Hnzleton."
A. It. Dreomcr corroborated Wil
liams' testimony In general and added
that he saw the Harwood men on
Sept. 10 at Crystal nidge draw a man
out of the bushes, where he was hid
ing and club him viciously with red
clubs. One of these clubs which he
had found was exhibited In evidence.
It looked like a portion of a curtain
pole.
AFTERNOON TESTIMONY.
The first witness this afternoon, Mrs.
A. Iteese, of West Hazleton, said she
told tho boarders nt her house to hide
In the church, where they would be
safe from the strikers, and they did
fcO.
William Steible saw on Sept. 10 the
Harwood strikers beating Andrew
Worslmk, who had been hiding from
them at Crystal nidge. He took the
man home and sent for Dr. Robert
son, who found the man's left nrm and
shoulder a mass of bruises.
Mrs. Carrie Haas, of Cranberry, saw
the strikers drag a man out of his
home by the arms and saw them fire
two shots at some lleelng men. The
man dragged out of his house had
been sick in bed. She is a German
but understands Polish and attended a
meeting at Cranberry on the day be
fore the shooting. The people at the
meeting were Hungarians nnd Poles.
One of the speakers said: "If the
English-speaking people get their Jobs
back and we don't get ours then ev
ery breaker in the region will go up In
the air."
Tho witness explained that they
meant either to blow up the breaker
with dynamite or set fire to it. This
evidence wns only admitted after a
lengthy nrgument. "When they found
I was a Germun woman," she said,
"they would say nothing more in my
hearing." '
OTHER EVIDENCE.
John Mummy said two shots were
fired at him as he ran Into the bushes,
Gustav Jnck, of Cranberry, told how
he was dragged out of a shanty where
he had hidden and forced to Join their
ranks. Joseph Ermold, or Hnzleton,
said when tho strikers tried to stop
him on Sept. 10 he drew a revolver,
whereupon they let him pass peace
ably, but threatened to fix him that
night.
John Beach, foreman of tho Harwood
colliery, was tho witness of tho day.
He said: "On Sept. 3 I heard the Mc
Adoo men were coming and told all my
men to go home. Two of the McAdoo
strikers came up on wheels, and said:
'We are going to stop the mine and
drive the men out.'
"When the strikers came some of
them wanted to cut the rope of No. 2
plane. A carload of men was being
hauled up and If tho rope had been cut
they would have been killed. By hard
talking I managed to persuade the
strlkorH not to cut the rope. They cried
as they left: 'You won't work any
more for a month; If you do we'll kill
you.'
"On Monday, Sept. C, a crowd of Har
wood men, armed with clubs and stones,
came to the breaker and went through
It, looking for men who were hiding
from them. They found none, nnd the
leaders, Joe Ecbotskl and John Kublt
ski, told me that If any of them came
to work they would be killed. That
night I got twenty proclamations from
the sheriff and posted them from Cran
berry to Harwood. I read one and tho

Just told mo the McAdoo men had
agreed to remain on strike until their
demnnds were granted. Between Sept.
C and 10 we tried several times to get
the breaker started, but each time the
men who wnnted to work were driven
buck by tho strikers and threatened
with death."
The cross-examination did not break
down the testimony at all.
THREATENED WITH DEATH.
W. H. Snyder, master mechanic nnd
asslstnnt superintendent of the Silver
Brook Coal company, said that a few
days before the Lattlmer shooting the
McAdoo strikers marched there nnd
told them to Htop hoisting. They did
ho nnd then the strikers pulled out the
fires, chased out the firemen and said
If thero wns any more work, every
body would bo killed and the breaker
torn down. They then smashed every
window In the blacksmith shop. A few
days before, while driving, a striker
shot nt him. Snyder returned the fire
and there was an exchange of shots,
neither was hit and the striker ran
awny.
This closed tho testimony of tho day.
THE MARKETS.
Wnll Street Review.
New York, Feb. 2.1. Today's further de
cline In stocks undoubtedly reflected a
condition of real upprehcnslon In tho
minds of holders of securities as to tho
developments In the Cuban question.
Commission house orders to sell were In
large volumes even nt tho opening and
llicFC soon swept uwny tho advances over
Monday's level which had been elabor
ately arranged by the use of the cablo to
estalillsh a higher rcngo of prices In Lon
don over the holiday. There was piofos
slonnl buying here nt the opening de
signed to tho same end, but not even tho
first quotations were up to tho London
parity Onlus were speedily wiped out
by the slump which lollowcd the aban
donment of the professional attempt to
sustain prices. Tho uncovering or mar
gins and selling orders to stop losses
brought a Hood of stccks on tho market.

Tho market was affected principally by

disposition among wheat traders to loavo
that market for tho coarser grain pits
caused a decided decrease In the volume
of wheat trading. Corn was heavy nnd
