CASTOR IA For Infants and Children. Tfc- fa:- HEARING THE DEFENSE. ATTORNEY FERRIS CLAIMS THAT THE DEPUTIES WERE JUSTIFIED. I'ronocutlon In tlie Martin Trial Closed on Montluy and the Witnesses for the Oilier Side Are Giving Their Version of the Adair. The witnesses for the defense are now being heard in the trial of Sheriff Mar tin and Ids deputies. On Monday morn ing two men gave testimony for tin commonwealth, after which the prose cution rested its case. One of these was James Ilcnahan, of Scranton, who was on tlie scene immediately after the shooting. lie identified several of tin deputies and told of a conversation he held with Deputy Samuel Price, The latter expressed his regret for the affair and said he was glad In l , did not shoot. Tito other witness was Dottier Dem shick, of Hazleton. who took the stand to deny that his driver had been taken from his wagon and pressed into the ranks of the strikers, as alleged by the defense. The most important feature of the trial this week was the ruling of Judge Woodward, given when the defense opened, which admits any evidence tending to show that rioting and dis order prevailed in the region before tin day of the shooting. On a somewhat similar question earlier in the trial tin judge had ruled the opposite. His ac tions, however, no longer cause surprise. The opening address was made by At torney George Ferris, Sheriff Martin's private counsel, and the orator gave free rein to his vivid imagination in describing the condition of affairs in this region previous to the massacre. Among other tilings said to justify tin- Lattiuier murders Mr. Ferris orated as follows: "Wo shall show you that during the week prior to the Lattinier shooting acts of riot and outrage were of more than daily occurence. The regln of law iiad given place to a reign of terror. Tin highways were swept by surging masses of armed and desperate men. Peaceful citizens were forced Into their ranks. Those who resisted were set upon, beaten, clubbed and wounded—some of them nigli unto death. Those who fled from the fury of the mob were pursued, stoned and fired upon. The sanctity of the home was violated. Dwelling houses were broken into and men dragged out or forced to line t.o the woods for their lives. Women were assaulted and threatened with death. Robbery was committed. Buildings were attacked and windows smashed with stones, and collieries taken by storm. Men were driven from their work. The local au thorities were powerless, and law had been supplanted by anarchy. "Sheriff Martin lias telegraphed to the sheriffs of Carbon and Schuylkill coun ties in which like depredation has occurred, to meet liitu in Hazleton. They did so. The three sheriffs pub lished their proclamations, together with the law relating to riots. These proclamations called upon all people to keep the peace and refrain from ail acts of violence and lawlessness. "On the same evening Sheriff Martin selected his posse, lie did not choose loafers, bar-room bummers, toughs and thugs, but good, law abiding cit zeus, men of good judgment, good character, good standing in the community. "When the crowd started for Lattinier on September 10 Its members were armed with clubs, iron bolts, bars and revolvers. They freely announced their purpose to bo to stop the works. They were warned not to go there, as bullets might be Hying. "The reply was: 'We no 'fraid. We got bullets, too.' "Then, after being dispersed, the strikers reorganized and, going around Hazleton, resumed their march to Latti nier. Their approach was heralded and the inhabitants lied in terror. The schools were dismissed. Boarding two trolley cars, the sheriff and his posse went to Lattinier and lined up along the road. There were throe men behind them, two were John Welsh and George Yeagcr. As the strikers approached Lattinier Mr. Martin ordered them to halt, which some in the front ranks did for a inotilent, those behind the sheriff closing up, some crowding upon him, others passing by and closing in behind them. "ll' l asked tlinin where they were (filing, und several voices si ted hack. 'We are going to Lattimer to stop tho mines.' The sheriff told them, as ho had at West Ilazloton, that tlioy should not do tills, but must disperse and keep the peace. He thou tried to read his proclamation, but the mob was in no mood for talk. Several shouted 'Goon, go on, 1 while one, who was near the sheriff, called out, 'Go ahead. Him no good. 1 "The sheriff reached forward and grasped the man to place him under arrest, instantly there was a tumult of yells. Five or six men pounced upon the sheriff, seized him, shoved him Into a ditch on the left side of the road and be gan beating him, two of them flourishing revolvers at him, and a third man made a savage stab with a knife. The sheriff in his struggles freed his right arm.and FREELAND, PA., THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 24, IS9B. drew his revolver and snapped it at one of his assailants. It would not go off. Instantly the man, Nevatanna, struck hiui a vicious blow in the face with his list and knocked him to his knees. "The order to lire was given by whom we do not know, but it was none too soon, for the head of t in; charging column had rushed within lifteen feet of the deputies" line. Many of the men were killed and wounded, while Deputy Trel ble was shot through both arms by some person in the rear of the deputies.'" One of t lio lirst witnesses presented b\ the defense was Mrs. Rose (ilace. One of the chief offenses committed by the strickers on September 10 in Mrs. Glace'- eyes was that they stole her bean poles and used them as clubs. Incidental!) they chased her husband through the brush because he would not march with them. "Three of the strikers went to John Edmundson's house," said she "and tried to make him join the crowd." Two of them grabbed Edmundson b) the arms and pulled one way. Mrs. Ed mundson grabbed him about the waist and pulled tin? other way. The poor fellow was nearly torn apart, but the strikers gave in and Edmundson only suffered the loss of his shirt. Mrs. (ilace declared that she saw the strikers have revolvers and pieces of iron in their hands. An effort to ex clude a portion of this witness' testimony on the part of the prosecution failed after an argument that lasted an hour or more. Mrs. Rose Gillespie, a widow whose home is in Harwood, where three of her sons work in the mines, testified that she saw strikers from McAdoo drive the workmen out of the Harwood breaker on Tuesday. "On September K) I was afraid that they would trash my boys if they would not go t.o Lattinier, so 1 sent two of them into the brush and hid the third in the cellar. When they started for Lattinier every striker iiad a club and many of them pieces of iron. They chased men through the brush and I heard several pistol shots." Testimony corroborating this was given by Mrs. Catherine Brennan. Miss Catherine Neusenbaum, Mrs. Patrick Gallagher, Mrs. Charles Miller and Joseph Shultz, of Harwood. Although Tuesday was a legal holi day, Judge Woodward did not ad journ court, lie. however, realized that it would bo fitting if there were a brief celebration of some kind in honor of the day. Ho therefore appointed James 11. Scarlett, one of the lawyers in the case, to read the farewell address of Wushing- The hearing: of testimony was then begun. No witness was kept on the stand a long time, and there was a ten deuev to rush tilings. All the witnesses examined gave very damaging testimony against the strikers. On cross-examina tion, however,, it was brought out that many of them, or some of their relatives, were holding good positions under the coal companies. The two most important witnesses of the day were Mrs. Catherine (iraeber. aged Hli years, and William (ierlock, breaker boss at Cranberry. Mrs. (Irae ber tesliiied that the strikers came along like wild men, not like regular people—a club in one hand and a pistol in the other. She told of a man who throw a stone at her. and exhibited a stone weighing nearly a pound, which she swore was the identical one. The evidence of Oerlock was badly shaken on cross-examination. He tosti liod that on some day proceeding the day of the shooting, tlio men on strike acted in a very riotous manner. They traveled in bands of from 100 to 200 and visited various breakers, intimidating and terrorizing the men at work. One day be was so afraid that his employes would meet with violence that he stop pod work and sent them home. Mrs. James Kdtuundson, of liarwood. said that on the day of the tragedy slio heard a neighbor shout "Skin out. The strikers are coming!" Continuing, wit ness said: "The strikers all had clubs. My man and my boarders hid behind the shanty, and 1 went to protect my sick boy in the house. Hut they found my husband and tried to get him away. I grabbed him and after a lot of words they let him go." Mrs. EdmHudson's husband testified that the strikers dragged him along the road several hundred years, until ids wife rescued him. "They wore all armed," lie said. Peter Wolfe, of liarwood, testified that on the day the strikers gathered to march to i.attimer lie locked himself, with several others, in the company store, hoping to elude tbo strikers. "When J* came out one man chased me with a big club for u long distance and I finally escaped by jumping through the window of my house." John Boyle, of liarwood, armed him self with a billy and hid in liis house when the strikers approached. Ills daughter told them ho was not at home, and they satisfied themselves by calling her names. James Mcdraw, of liarwood, said lie was pursued by strikers, and as ho could not run because of his advanced ago ho hid in the bush; and as he drop ped two shots were fired at him. Charles Mullen and two friends were Continued on Fourth Page. BETTER FACILITIES. fleeting to Secure More Satisfactory Ser vice froui the Valley. The mooting held last evening under the auspices of the Hoard of Trade, to consider plans by which better railroad and mail facilities can be obtained for Freeland, was well attended, and there are prospects that the service will he improved as one of the results of the determined stand taken by the business interests of the town. The gathering was a representative one. The Lehigh Valley Company had a delegation pres ent,. consisting of Station Agent James Mcllugh and Division Agent Hernandez. Both of these officials are in sympathy with the object of the meet ing. After the purpose was stated by Presi dent Williamson, a motion made by W. H. ltutz was passed authorizing the ap pointment of a committee to prepare a petition praying for the return of the (>. in a. m. mail train in particular and better mail facilities in general. Messrs. W. 11. Bntz. A. Oswald and J. C. Horner wore appointed on the committee. A general discussion on the subject followed. A. Hrucningsen thought the company would not heed the petition. He favored looking for another railroad. Dr. F. Schllcher was of the opinion that President Walter was right from his standpoint and was justified in try ing to make the road pay. However, he believed the petition would have a good effect if properly signed. He also favored sending petitions to the post master-general and the United States Express Company. A motion embodying the latter sug gestion was made by Dr. Schllcher and A. Rudewick. Daniel Kline spoke of the inconven ience to the l'ress occasioned by the new schedule. Many subscribers cannot get their papers until the Monday after the date of issue. J. C. Bernor favored the idea of the Board of Trade co-operating witli the Hazleton Industrial Association in try ing to induce the Reading to extend its road to Hazleton and Freeland. Postmaster B. F. Davis explained the present mail schedule. Mails depart at 7.40 and 9.33 a. rw. and 2.33 and 7 p. in. The second outgoing mail lies at the Lumber Yard several hours. Station Agent James MeHwgh inform ed the meeting that since Monday morn ing he has been trying to better the condition of the mail and passenger service. He suggested that a committee see Division Superintendent Blakslee. This being the lirst request ever asked by Freeland people he believed it would lie granted. Division Agent Hernandez, of Hazle ton. said the town should have the early train if it was a convenience. He prom ised to aid in presenting the matter at headquarters. It was agreed to make an effort to meet Mr. Blakslee before taking further action. Mr. Mcllugh will try to arrange for a meeting of the com mittee and the superintendent at the Central hotel as soon as possible. The sentiment of the meeting in re gard to local trains was that they would pay if the faro was reduced to compote witli the trolley line. PERSONALITIES.
