In New York Saturday a man giving the name of Harry A. Williams but who the police declare la Henry C. Wilson, for 20 years chief clerk and civil engineer in the department of the East, U. S. A., was arrested on a charge of extortion. Benjamin F. Whit more was arrested with him on a simi lar charge. The two men are accused of trying to hold up the Water Front Improve ment company of Jersey City who are filling In crib work on Riker's island in the East river. The men are charged with extorting $4,500 which the police say was given to them In marked bills, under threats of stopping the work of the company by causing to be with drawn an army tug, a dredge and gome scows which had been loaned In order to expedite the execution of the con tract According to the police. Deputy Po lice Commissioner Piper, who as an army officer, was recently In charge of the vessels In question, was notified six weeks ago that representatives of the contracting company had been ap proached by Whltmore who professed to be the agent of men who had the power to stop the work by withdrawing the government vessels. Captain Piper, Police Commissioner Patridge, Street Cleaning Commission er Woodbury, District Attorney Jerome and Captain Titus of the detective bu reau held a conference at which It was deckled that a detective, personating the treasuier of the Water Front com pany, should continue the negotiations with Whltmore. Captain Titus says that his detective and a representative of tho company met Whltmore and Wilson Friday afternoon and hand ed to each of them $2,250 In marked bills. The whole transaction was wit nessed by other detectives and by a representative of the district attor ney's office through a window. Scarcity of Car and Motive Power. ' Trade, Industry and transportation continue active, despite drawbacks caused by warm weather, scarcity of fuel and car and motive power short age. Cold weather is needed, to stim ulate consumption of heavy winter goods from retailers' hands, whatever complaint tlieie Is heard regarding collections being attributed to this cause. From all over the country come com plaints of congestion of railroad ton nage affecting the movement of the leading crops to the eastward and of merchandise to the West. nutter and cheese showed seasonable advances, and crude and refined pe troleum has continued the upward movement noted for some weeks past. The flour market Is apparently in good shape. New orders are not num erous, but the mills are busily em ployed on old business. Northwestern flour mills have again broken the rec ord of production. As the result of expected or act ually Increased competition of beet sugar, the refiners of same may take steps which will precipitate a conflict of great possibilities In the matter of the ultimate disposal of sugar to the retailers. Abnormally low prices for awhile are expected. Refined is again lower, while raw sugar Is stronger and favors sellers. Major General Chaffee's Report. The annual report of Major General Adna It. Chaffee, just made public, closes Sept. 30, the date when he re linquished his command of the divis ion of the Philippines. The report covers the campaign of General J. H. Smith In Samar, refors to some friction that occurred between the civil and military authorities re garding Leyte and discusses the ac tions of various officers and the work of the army In the suppression of re cent insurrections. General Chaffee warmly defends the officers, and assumes full responsi bility for all that was done under offi cial orders. He says that the various Filipino bands are of little military importance and in time can be handled by the insular constabulary. Speaking of the campaign In Samar, General Chaffee says that he finds nothing In the written instructions which was not justified by the condi tions there to be overcome. General Chaffee says the formation of concen tration camps was necessary to sup press the insurrection In the provinces of Batangas, La Guna and Tayabas. He asserts that the civil authori ties In some instances aided the Insur rectionists and says it was found nec essary to arrest and confine 300 or 400 of the intelligent class In order to re move the Influence of the masters over the masses of the people.

Vayne MacVeagh Questioned Presi dent Mitchell About the Alleged Reign of Terror Working of Agree ments In Soft Coal Regions Com mission Wishes to Hurry Inquiry. Scranton, Pa., Nov. 18. In the pres ence of as many persons as could be ;ummed into the superior court room, Wayne MaeVjagh for the Erie com pany and John Mitchell for the miners, continued their brilliant battle of cross examination before the anthracite coal commission. The fourth demand of the union which calls for a yearly trade agree ment, and which means a straight out recognition of the union, was the bone of contention, and although four hours were taken up in a discussion of the question not much material progress was made. MacVeagh attempted to show the ut ter Irresponsibility of the union and Its unfitness to make contracts which it could not live up to. His principal ar gument was the alleged boycott and he often hard pressed the miners' pres ident for an answer. The latter, however, slowly and de liberately gave some reply, but they did not always satisfy his Inquisitor, who expressed his admiration of the ability of the witness. Mr MacVeagh weighed heavily on what he said was a reign of terror in the anthracite region during the period of the strike and with the assistance of many documents maintained that it would bo utterly Impracticable for the coal companies he represents to enter into agreements with an organization that could not control its own men. Mr. Mitchell stoutly maintained that the discipline in the organization is as good' as it possibly could be where 147,000 men were involved. He claimed that the strikers were not en tirely responsible for the acts of law lessness that were committed. He re gretted that members of the union had in some Instances violated the law, even after they had been warned to refrain from doing so, but made the excuse that In times of great ex citement there was always more or less disorder. In answer to questions he said, that whore there was a reign of terror, and he had no Information that such was the case during the late strike, conditions arise that are 'Intolerable" or "unfortunate." Replying to specific Instances point ed out to him by Mr. MacVeagh where men had been deterred from going to work through fear of personal harm or social ostracism for themselves and families, Mr. Mitchell said that in some cases men may have been de terred, but denied the assertion that such alleged acts prevented the mines from being operated. The miners' president could not be dragged Into a flat admission that he as president of the union approved of the boycott complained of by the companies. During the cross-examination the commissioners often interrupted1 with questions In order to stop a long col loquy over some disputed point. While the discussion of the effect a yearly agreement would have on the coal industry In the anthracite region was In progress frequent refer ence was mado to the workings of agreements In soft coal regions. This led to the announcement by Chairman Gray that the commission had decided to Invite Herman Just!, commissioner of the Illinois Coal Oper ators' association, to testify before the commission. This announcement was favorably received by each side and the attorneys for the miners and the operators made suggestions for additional witnesses. Mr. Wilcox, general counsel for the Delaware and Hudson company, after a conference with the other attorneys handed up a suggestion that "such other witnesses, If any, as the Illinois Coal Operators' association may deem proper for the purpose of showing tho effect of trade agreements with the United Mine Workers of America" be Invited to attend. Mr. Darrow. counsel for the miners, suggested several names and it Is likely all the gentlemen will he In vited to come here. The Investigation ra dragging too slowly to suit the com missioners and it is likely the com mission will probably ask both sides to agree upon some arrangement for expediting the Investigation. The lawyers for the Delaware, Lackawanna and Western or the Philadelphia, and Reading company will next take Mr. Mitchell In hand unless the programme Is changed. It Is expected the attorneys for the non-union men will present their case to the commission today. If it Is de cided to hear them, It will Inject an entirely new feature Into the investi gation, and one which was not expect ed at the time President Roosevelt created the commission. Unfortunate Family. Catskill. Nov. Iii. The remains of Kittle McLaughlin, found drowned In the Hudson river at Hyde park Sun day, arrived at her former home heic. She was an orphan.

The session of the anthracite coal strike commis sion was full of amusing Incidents, due to the play of wit and the repartee Indulged in by President Mitchell, who continued on the stand, and Wayne MacVeagh. former attorney genemi of the United States, who waa conduct ing the cross-examination. Mr. MacVeagh stood near the wit ness box ami directly In front of Judge Gray, a slim figure, but graceful as a dancing master and with a fund ot goal humor that was at no time dis turbed. His good naturo and his pleasant way of saying sharp things communicated itself to Mitchell, and the latter was apparently at his best. A great mass of testimony was given and the pencils of the stenographers fairly flew. The chief subject under discussion was the amount of wages that would permit a man to live in conformity with the American Idea. Mr. Mitchell declared the minimum was $1100 per annum. Mr. MacVeagh said that was more than was paid any other avocation. Other subjects were the responsibil ity for causing more suffering to tho poor because of tho increase in tho price of ccal for which Mitchell as serted the operators were entirely re sponsible, while Mr. MacVeagh de clared It was due to the exactions and the agitations of the miners; the num ber of hours worked by the contract miners, which MacVeagh attempted to show was seldom over three In a good chamber, Mitchell denying that, but refusing to give the number of hours; the conditions In the bitumin ous fields where, acconMng to reports read by MacVeagh, conditions have be come worse since the organization of the miners was recognized; and tho employment of coal and iron police by the companies, which Mitchell con demned, saying that he thought that ample protection could be given by the authorities. He admitted that In case the authorities could not furnish protection, that the employment of guar's might become necessary. Mr. MacVeagh asked Mitchell If he did not know that previous to the en try of the United Mine Workers Into this field that tho men had only com plained In one Instance during the 30 yeais. Mitchell answered that this statement did not surprise him, tho reason probably was that the miners dare not make known their grievances for fear of discharge. It locks as if Mitrhell will he on the stand tho greater part of this week. Ho wli.' probably be cross-examined by tho attorneys of all the great corpora Mons represented at the hearing, and by the attorneys for the Independent operators, and when they aro through It is understood that the memliers of the ccmmisslon will ask a number of questions.
