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. VAN FOMBH,

tion as testified to by Messrs. Edwards and

cause of tho condition stems to bo a laok of
demand for anthracite opal.
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. Pay for the
two weeks amounted to $5, $10, $15. I am
paid by tho ear. Holds four tons. Get 00
cents a car. If 1 had Regular employment,
say 10 days in two wcjiks, I might average
$2 a day. I have nine in my family. Own
my houso, but not tho ground. I contribute
tho condition to under consumption, aud not
to an overplus of labor. I don't know that
routs in the town have depreciated.

Witness declined to say what wages ho re
ceived aud continued : I can't tell what tho
miners average. You can get that informa
tion at Pottsvlllo from Mr. Volth or Mr.
Luther.
Q. What does It cost to put coal iu the curs
under tho breaker?
A. That is none of my businoss. You go
to Pottsvllle. I decline to answor that ques
tion. I have no reason to give as to why.
Chairman Morcditli : Committee lias de
cided that if this information is needed it
must be procured from headquarters.
Senator Coyle said if Mr. Broughall would
say he might loso his placo by answering the
question ho would not Press it. Mr. Brougli
ail said ho would npt answer, nufl really
could not.
JOHN J. nRADIOAN,
District Superintendent for tho P. & U. 0. &
I. Co. The collieries now work less than
half time. The "average miner has hcon re
ceiving $a.B0 per day, or from $0 to $7 per
week. I attribute the condition of affairs to
tho bad reigns of our government, and as a
remedy suggested having difl'eient men in
charge. 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.
Senator Coylo said ho would ask f.ir n

was overwhelming, while his defense
consisted of the testimony of one wit
ness, a physician, who swore to a
knowledge of many oases ot drowning
wuere waier naa not been found in
the lungs after death. This was (to
prove that the woman had not been
killed by blows on the head Inflicted by
Qordy, as alleged In the indlotment,
although a reasonable presumption of
death by drowning was admitted. The
defense contended that there was a
doubt which should be resolved In
Gordy's favor, but the verdict of the
Jury was "iu a manner and'Ibrm as he
etands indicted."
The Jury retired at 5:29 o'clook yes
terday nfternoon after listening
throughout the day to the arguments
of counsel. Charles M. Cullen and
Charles P. nioliards, Gordy's lawyers,
spent the morning In addressing the
Jury, and Attorney General 'White oc
cupied the afternoon. Then followed
the charge of the court, and the case
went to the JUry. They brought in
their verdict at 7:28 o'olock last night.

When the jury came Into court the
room wrja packed to the doors, and

Gordy stoid erect, with his head raised
arid his eyes upon the Jury, ae the v.er
diot was announced. There was not
a tremor in his body nor a semblance
of chantra in his face when he heard
his doom. The Jury was polled and
each man Individually answered with
the verdict. The Jury was unanimous
for conviction on the first ballot.
Counsel for tho defense gave notice
that they would mako a motion in

In the closing argument for the de.

stopped him and told him that he must

prisoner committed the crime.
