Thefac- _ FREELAND, PA, MONDAY, NOVEMBER 15, 1897. Striker* Win a Victory. The right claimed by miners to gather on a coal company's property and pro hibit others from going to work was up held on Saturday by a jury in the criminal court at Wilkesbarre. A num ber of men employed in the Heidelberg colliery of the Lehigh Valley Coal Com pany, near Avoca, went on strike on October 1 last. Committees were ap pointed among the men, who, it is alleged, by threats prevented others from getting to work. A riot followed and stones were thrown, but no per son was injured. The officials of the Lehigh Valley Coal Company ordered the arrest of the lead ers of the strike, and nine men were thrown into jail, charged with rioting. Among the witnesses for the prosecu tion were Foreman Owens and other workmen who swore that threats had been made by the strikers. It was also shown that the men were on the com pany's property. The defense opened shortly before noon. Attorney Eugene Ward made the opening plea and said the trouble was caused by excessive docking and that the defendants molested or Injured no person, but coaxed them not to go to work. The defendants where then each placed on the stand in turn and told the story of the strike. The case was given to the jury late Saturday afternoon, and after being out a short time the jury returned a verdict of not guilty and placed the costs on the prosecutor. Junior Mechanic*' Home. The committee of the national coun cil of the Junior Order United American Mechanics of the United States to count, the vote of the new sixth object—to es tablish and erect a home for the orphans of deceased members of the order and maintain the same—canvassed the vote which resulted as follows: Thirty-nine states polled a majority in favor and six states a majority against; 812 councils for and 040 councils against. In a great many councils there was no vote taken. The vote was close, being 2,000 of a ma jority in favor of adoption of the sixth object. Hereafter the Juniors will have six objects instead of five. The establish ment of the orphans' home will now be pushed. A Monster Entertainment. From the Huzleton Standard. St. Marks, No. 7; Palestlmo, No. 14, of Hazleton, and (Jarheld Commandery.

BIG TRIAL CONTINUED. j MARTIN AND HIS DEPUTIES ARE FREE UNTIL NEXT JANUARY. j DUtriet Attorney Fell nnil Lnwyin for llie Prosecution Asked for the Post ponement—Necessary Witnesses in the i Hospital Defense Wanted to <*o On. The case of Sheriff Martin and his deputies, charged with murdering the strikers at Lattimer on September 10, has been continued. When court opened on Friday afternoon District Attorney Fell went before Judge Ren net and made a motion for a continua tion of the cases on tlie ground that three of the injured men were still in Hazleton hospital and unable to be present. Dr. Keller, superintendent of the Haz leton hospital, was sworn and said two of the men, John Slobnick and George Gaspavich, had gunshot wounds in their heads and bullets in their brains; that Bernard Runnel had bullet wounds through both legs, and that It would be impossible for them to be present for at least six months. Mr. Lenahan, of counsel for the de fense, said: "Your Honor, we object to the continuation of this case. We are all ready to go to trial. The defense is ready, and it is UNFAIR TO MAKK TIIIB MOTION for a continuance sixty hours before the time set down for a trial." Judge Bennett interrupted Mr. Lena han at the time and sent out for Judge Lynch to consult with him. Mr. Lena han then resumed. He said it was a case of the of the utmost importance to the commonwealth and to the nation: that it was of the utmost public import ance that the case be tried; that it would be unfair and unjust to the de fendants to hang up the case for six months. Judge Bennett asked what was the weight of the evidence of the witnesses. Mr. Fell said it was of such importance that he did not wish to make it public. Mr. Lenahan demanded that the trial he hold at the time set down, and added that IIE WAS SATISFIED to have the witnesses' testimony taken. 11. W. Palmer also appeared fofr the defense, claiming that it was unfair to delay the trial; that there were forty nine indictments against eighty-three citizens, and that the latter were begging for a trial. Judge Lynch then road the rule of court that all criminal court cases be tried in the order sot down, unless the district attorney wishes them continued in the interest of public justice. The court said the district attorney had the responsibility of continuing the case. Mr. Palmer thought it was almost im possible that some one of those nineteen cases could not be tried without this one important witness. Mr. Palmer doubt ed that the evidence of any one man could be so important or material. Mr. Lenahan added that they were WILLING TO TAKE DEPOSITIONS or oven send the jury down to the hospital. Judge Lynch said that, speaking for himself, he should give due weight to the motion of the district attorney. Mr. Fell stated that, after consulta tion with Mr. Scarlet and the other at torneys for the prosecution, he found the witnesses'evidence of the utmost im portance. Mr. McGahren said that he visited tin' hospital and that of the eight wounded men still there, three of them were of great importance as witnesses; that two of them might be able to attend the January term of court. Mr. Lenahan again insisted on a trial, and said the depositions would assist the common wealth as much as if the witnesses were in court. Attorney Scarlet added his plea, and said that the witnesses in the hospital were TIIE MOST IMPORTANT ONES in the case and the commonwealth could not safely go to trial without them. Judge Bennett then said that they would continue all the cases until the January term of court. There was a great array of legal talent facing the judges 011 both sides. Attor ney J. L. Lenahan, 11.
