THE INVESTIGATORS' I BEGAN ITS SESSIONS HERE SON HOTEL BUSINESS PS, OFFICIALS flflb MIS. Give Tlieir Version of the Present Condition of Affairs and the Causes HEARING PROVED A FAILURE This Is the Opinion Generally Expressed by Those Present The Members of the Commission Adjourned at Noon and Then Proceeded to fla hanoy City In Carriages, Stopping at the nilatigownii Colliery on the Way- flany Witnesses Subpoenaed Palled to Appear. x The Miners' Investigating Cflffimittce ar rived here this morning, and resumed Its work in the Ferguson Uonse parlors. The hour set for the hearing, 0 o'clock, found very few around the corridors of tho hotel, and a stranger would never have suspected that an investigation of such importance was under way. Tho committee was slow in getting down to business, and it was 0:30 bef.ro they called tho witnesses and repre sentatives of tho press into their quarters, and began the work of probing into the con dition qf tho mine workers of Shenandoah and vicinity. A member of the Commission is authority for tho statement that they will hold another short session in Mahauoy City to-morrow morning, for tho purpose of giving those witnesses who were subpoenaed', but failed to appear boforo the committee, another oppor tunlty to glvo the commission tho benefit of their knowledge as to the present condition of things in this part of the coal region. The committee oxpects to conclude Its investiga tion in timo to submit its report to the Legis lature by the 15th of May, as provided by a resolution passed by the Legislature. The resolution as passed originally, creating the commission, fixed April lflth as tho date on which a report should be made, but this has been subsequently changed to the farmer date May 15th. Senator Coy lo accompanied tho committee to this town and during the hearing pro pounded questions to tho witnossos, mostly bearing upon the cost of putting a -ton of coal in the cars, aud tho Senator requested that Goneral Manager R. C. Luther, of Potts vlllo, be subpoenaed to furnish this informa tion. Justice M. J. Lawlor gave tho committee an intelligent yiew of the situation and tho causes, but failed to seo what tho committoo could do torelievc tho distressed condition of the miners. The session was a short ouo and failed to develop auythlng In addition to what tho committee had learned at Mahanoy City. In a sense it may be termed a failuie, as one of the chief objects was to get from District Superintendents Broughall and Bradigan the cost of putting coal into tho cara.undr the breaker. Tho object of this lino of examina tion was to uomparo the figures with the cost of bituminous, and, after a comparison f both with tho figures of sales agents, show tho profits mado by the carriers. Messrs. Rroughall and Bradigan failed to give this information, and no othor now mat ter was brought out. The results of tho session emphasized the Opinion already gen erally expressed, that the investigating com mittee can do nothing that will better the situation. At 11:90 this morning, after the committee had been 111 session about two hours, the list of witnesses subpoouaed was exhausted and Chalnnan Meredith declared an adjourn ment. During a subsequent social intercourse the committee accepted the invitation of District Superintendent Broughall to visit tho work ings of the Ellangowan colliery and after the committee dined at the Ferguson House carriages wcro ordered to tho hotel aud the committco started for the colliery. Before Jeaving Chairman Meredith stated that the coiumlttea bar) concluded Its labors here and would proceed in the carriages from Ellangowa'n to Mahanoy City and remain at tho latter placo to-night. At nine o'clock to morrow morning the oommittes will open tho final session at Mahanoy City for the purpose of taking tho testimony of clerks and super intendents to try and get the information that was sought of Superintendents Brough all and Iiraillgan. It is expected that the attempts will be as fruitless astliase wade here. It is impossible at this time to state what part of the rogion the committee will next visit. The members will start for their homes to-morrow, at about noon. Mauy of the witnesses subpoenaed by the Sergeant-at-AtWA tailed to put in an appear ance. HKV. O. W.

COUNCILMAN PATRICK HAND, Minor. I have not had regular employment for 10 to 12 years. In 1800 I might havo worked half time. Fret the first of Mau-h I worked three days -a week.

Chairman Morcditli : Committee lias de cided that if this information is needed it must be procured from headquarters.

I can't glvo the committco the cost of putting a ton of coal on the curs. Senator Coylo put the question he addrosstd to Mr. Broughall. Mr. Bradigan nuswered that he did not know.
