THE LATTIMER FUNDS.
MONEY COLLECTED FOR CHARITY
AND PROSECUTION PURPOSES.
Complete Report Has lleen Made by the
Natloual Committee of All Receipt* and
Expennei—Comment by Ker. Richard
C. Aunt, Chairman of Committee.
A complete report of the National
Prosecuting and Charity Committee of
the Lattimer Victims has been issued.
The report gives an- itemized and de
tailed account of all moneys collected
for the charity fund, also an itemized
and detailed account of the expenses of
this fund. The receipts of the prose
cution fund are also given with the
same exactness, but the expense portion
of the committee's report on this ac
count is not as specific as it might have
been. The expenditures are lumped in
live items, In which no names appear,
and it is not nearly as clear and explicit
as the other portions of the report.
The receipts of the charity fund from
September 11, 1897, to the date of the
report, March 5, 1899, were #4,305.60.
The dates and names of the persons and
organizations contributing appear in
the report. The disbursements to the
widows and orphans and other depend
ent relatives of the Lattimer victims
were #4,1(59.71. The dutes on which
money was paid and the names of those
receiving it are given. A balance of
#135.89 remained.
PROSECUTION FUND.
To prosecute the sheriff's deputies the
sura of #4,761.67 was collected. The
sources from which the money was re
ceived is given. The expenses are
placed at 34,751.58, divided into the
following amounts: Attorneys' fees,
32,756; secret service, #666.41; printing
and stationery, 395.32; miscellaneous
expenses paid before, during and after
the trial, 3974.75; railroad fares and
and horse hires, #290; total, 34,751.58.
A balance of 310.09 remained in this
fund.
Edmund Lembick, John Shigo and
Itev. Carl Ilouser audited the accounts
and their affidavit attesting to the
correctness of the report also appears.
The balances in the two funds, $135.-
89 in the charity and $10.09 in the prose
cution, wero appropriated by the com
mittee to defray the expense of publish
ing the report and having it printed in
pamphlet form. The papers selected
were the Slavonian Truth , Freeland; the
Oournik , WilUesbarro, and the Szabadsag,
Cleveland, Ohio, after which the com
mittee adjourned sine die.
CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT.
Accompanying the report is a state
ment from the chairman, Rev. Richard
C. Aust, regarding SSOO contributed by
the Pennsylvania Slavonian Association
and the Greek Catholic Union. This
money was disbursed directly by the
representatives of these organizations,
consequently no mention is made of it
in the report. He also states that the
contribution of SIOO from Hon. ltourke
Cockran, of New York, was used for ex
penses of the executive committor).
Father Aust's report further says:
"Publishing this account of funds and
transaction during a period of eighteen
months, I fullfill my last official obliga
tion as the president of the 'National
Prosecuting and Charity Committee of
tho Lattimer Victims.' Not to explain,
or excuse In any way our transactions,
for they are plain and open, do I attach
this short prefaco to our final account,
but in order to thank a charitable gen
eral public for their kind contributions,
and the Polish, Slavonian and Hun
garian press for their assistance in col
lecting and forwarding various sums
from all states and territories in tho
union. The charity fund shows that
the committee has not only assisted, but
entirely supported from September,
1897, to February, 1899, fifty-nine adults
(widows and cripples), and thirty-eight
children (half orphans), victims of the
unhappy Lattimer affair. Our funds,
now being exhausted, we have, instead
of throwing these poor unfortunates
upon the worry of a general public,
made arrangements with our poor board,
whose representative has kindly con
sented to seo to their wants.
LACK OF MONEY.
"As to the prosecuting fund, much
might bo said. Much has been said by
officious, unreasonable and generally
malicious critics. The main facts in
tho case are these:
"To conduct such a case, of such im
portance, handling such a number of
witnesses, and find as opponents men of
capital, cash, and such willingness to
spend it, as we found them, I say, to
conduct such a case and have at least
some possibility of hopo to be successful,
we should have had five or six times the
amount we had at our disposal. When
wo made our first arrangements, wo
had not enough to pay a retainer to our
lawyers, and when we finished with the
first case, instead of immediately being
able to call tho second, wo found our
selves without funds, without any en
couragement from tho outside.
"We do not complain, as the response
to our call, considering, only our own
poor working people wore contributing,
' was very generous, though more might

have been done. At least certain per
* sons of our neighborhood, who were and
are well able to do it, and who ought to
* have done it, as they today make their
living from the contributions of these
poor people, should not have overlooked
these wronged orphans and suffering
! widows.
"But it Is over, the fight was made,
and unluckily lost. The case and the
whole proceedings in this case will go
down to future, in the unwritten history
of suffering manhood, as another in
stance where at least in the eyes of ley
men, if not professional lawyers, capital
and Influence, and not true justice won
the day.
"May God bo the father and protector
of the poor unfortunate ones; may He
be the avenger of the unfortunate
victims."
