Very Direct Testimony Given at tiie In queKt, Still tlie Verdict It* Not Forth coming— Lnckanannu Miners Striking. Preparing to Organize This Kegioii. Tho coroner's jury to inquire Into the killing of the strikers at Lattimcr met in Deputy Coroner Bowman's ollice Sat urday night, and after being in session nearly three hours adjourned without rendering a verdict. Some of the jury men favored censuring the sheriff and deputies, while others opposed a verdict of this kind. After considerable wrang ing and no possible sign of arriving at any conclusion they adjourned. An effort will be made to have them convene again tonight. TAKING THE TESTIMONY. The testimony taken at the inquest, which was held in Ilazle Ilall on Thurs day and Friday afternoons, did not differ materially from that given at the hearing of the deputies in Wilkesbarre earlier in the week. The evidence was substantially the same from all witness es, and an idea of its character can be formed from the following testimony, part of which is given by a spectator and part by a striker. Thomas Charles—Lives In Ilazleton; heard that strikers were going to Latti mor and went over to see what happen ed; wore about 300 strikers; strikers turned down the road; deputies were lined up along the fence; saw sheriff standing some distance from the deputies and hold something in his hand; saw strikers surround the men; sheriff stumb led over a stone; could not tell what strikers did who did not surround the sheriff; some yelled and ran toward the sheriff; heard one shot but could not say who ordered; then luiard another and then a volley; after the volley was fired he heard a scattering shot or two; could not say whether deputies fired this last shot or not; did not seo strikers shoot any of the deputies; a few soconds elapsed between the shots; some men ran after tho lirst shot was fired; saw a DEPUTY KICKING A STRIKER after shooting but could not say who he Martin Stefani—Residence Ilarwood: works for C. Pardee & Co.; was one of the strikers; went on his own free will; had no pistol; no other strikers had any; was agreed by strikers not to take any; met the sheriff at West Ilazleton; sheriff talked with men at West ilazleton; sheriff did not read riot act; had heard that the sheriff and deputies were stop ping strikers; could not tell how long it took for strikers to go to Lattimer; wit ness was right In front; sheriff grabbed a young fellow and pulled hi in away; sheriff pulled his revolver; witness then got back; one man shouted fire; witness ran up to school house; when lie looked around he saw men fall and heard bul lets whizzing past his ears; did not hear sheriff say "stop'' to any of tfie strikers, was shot in the arm, but kept on run ning; was shot after ho was at the school house; sumo of his companions dropped. TRAMPED TO NEW YORK. New York, September 23. —One of the most dilapidated specimens of humanit) that ever unloaded itself from Pennsyl vania onto New York arrived in this cosmopolitan town this week from Latti mer, Luzerne county, where Sherill Martin's deputies killed a score or more of unarmed and unbanning miners on the loth Inst. This man says his name is Michael Osterwitz, and that ho Is an Austrian. His clothes hung in rags, and tho soles of his feet were covored with blisters, all of which boro convinc ing evidence that the man had had a long walk. When he said he was a miner ho gave nobody a chance to doubt him long by showing a pair of cracked and callous hands which had lost their original appearance in one of Pardee's slate picking places of torture. Michael lias been shivering in the sharp night air—it was 2 a. m. when he i struck the newspaper row of the metrop olis—and seemed afraid of his own shadow in tho big electric light near by, when some one suggested to him that perhaps it was time to liavo something to eat. "Bread! Bread!" he cried, and he looked up to his tormentors as a starved dog looks up to food that is held away from him. At 2 a. m. crowd in New York is not always one likely to sympa thize with a hungry man; but in this crowd there was a man who said he had the price of one meal and if someone wo.'ild put up as much they could try and "stuff the bum." Cheat Scott! how tho man did eat. He lirst showed hfs entertainers how to swallow a cup of coffeo in a gulp, and Sifter satisfying his hunger told h!i story in broken sentences, which drew all the occup ints of the place about him. Osterwft# had boon a slate picker in a coal breaker. His followcoijntrymon there, he said, hated the Italians who worked with them because they put up with sucli small wages, and tho former, wljo no n ore, could hardly exist. He described a striker's assault on an Ital ian, and also rehearsed the shooting FREELAND, PA., MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 27, 1897. scone, first prowling as if one of the mob, then giving tho command to fire, and describing the fall of the killed and wounded. Osterwitz had started for Bridgeport, Conn., where his brother lives, walking many miles before ho got on a freight train at. Munch Chunk. A fireman had given him a bit of his dinner on tho train. The man has a wife and children in Austria, whom he desires to bring to this country when lie can afford it. A collection was taken up for him, and after spending the rest of the night on a bench in City Hall Park he started for Bridgeport at daybreak. PROSECUTING COMMITTEE'S APPEAL. The National Prosecuting Committee lias issued an appeal from whieh the following pertinent paragraphs are taken: "Wo send you this appeal, represent ing as we do tlie wounded and the friends and relatives of those now dead. Tliiscommitt.ee is formed for the purpose of procuring counsel, obtaining evidence and all other matters tending to the prosecuting of tlie sheriff and his dep uties to tlie fullest extent of tlie law? We assume that you are friends of labor and that this battlo is yours as well as ours. If these men go unpunished for tho killing of our fellows, who knows what will befall us next? "Let it not be said that you lacked patriotism or proper sympathy by stand ing idly by and not offering some assist ances toward tho purpose of this com mittee. "A number have been made widows and orphans, and should you wish to contribute for the help of those, you will so designate. All funds are to bo sent to John Nemeth, Treasurer National Prosecution and Charity Committee for tho Lattlinor Victims. Hazleton, Pa. "And now wo conclude, trusting that you will give this your immediate atten tion. We fool that you have explicit faith in tlie honesty of tho committee. We assure you that what you may con tribute will be distributed in an impar tial, business-like manner, so that when we rotiro from this committee we hope to do so with credit to ourselves and the esteem of the entire community. "Committee—Rev. Ricn Aust, presi dent: John Nemeth, treasurer; J'. F. Loughran, secretary; Rev. John Stas, j Salvador di Sandola, Nicholas Ballok, I Matthew Long, John Kuntz, Rev. Carl j Houscr, Edmund Lombiek, Rev. Joseph | Formannick, Frank Koslowski, George ; Kozakewich." REGION TO BE ORGANIZED. Tho work of thoroughly organizing the anthracite miners is under consid eration by all tlie big labor unions. At i session of the executive council of the American Federation of Labor on Thurs day at Washington, D. C., very strong resolutions regarding tlie shooting at Lattimer were adopted. Tho council, tlie resolutions state, "will give its full est help through tho trade unions and the American Federation of Labor, to raise moneys for tlie legal prosecution and conviction of Sheriff Martin and his murderous minions, that through the courts of our land even-handed justice may be done to atone for those revolting murders." Frank J. Weber, one of Federation general organizers, was directed to pro ceed immediately to the Luzerne district, for tlie purpose of helping in more thor oughly organizing tlie miners. Mr. Weber arrived at Hazleton Friday evening and will spend some time in the region. STRIKING IN LACKAWANNA. Four hundred minors and laborers, employod at tho Simpson & Walk ins j collieries, above Scranton, went out on a strike Friday morning, and in conse quence the Last Chance, Eyebrow and Edgerton mines are idle. On Monday last tho men at tlie Last Chance went out, but after a conference with General Superintendent Crawford, in which ho promised them that their grievances would be considered, they returned to work Tuosday, and everything went well till Thursday night, when a meet ing of tlie miners was held and it was decided to stop work next morning, and 'to stay till their claims wero granted. Tlie ollicials at Scranton were notified, and they told tlie men to either go to work or removo their tools from tho mine. They did tho latter. One hundred slate pickers, employed at tho Coal Brook breaker, Carbondalo, struck tho same day. Tho principal grievance is that when working three quarter timo no noon hour is allowed them. TROOPS ARE DEPARTING. Tho troops liavo begun to depart for their homes. The first of tho 3,000 soldiers who were on duty in this section loft on Friday afternoon. Bat tery C received orders that morning to break camp, and tho command was obeyed with no delays. By night the artillery men were at their homes in Phoenixvlllti. On Saturday tho Twelfth regiment returned to Williamsport and tho Thirteenth to Scranton. The Fourth will likely leave Driftou tomorrow. OA9TOXIIA. Thefae- /9 - UPPER LEHIGH NOTES.
