STEAM PUMI’ MEN
WERE INIIMIDAIED
Finding Company Said it Would Rath—
er Let in Minn Drown Than to
Rocoqnize the Union.
PHILADELPHIA, Jan. (id—Adam
Boyd. of Shenandoah. a division sup-
erintendent of the Philadelphia and
Reading Coal and iron Companv who
was on the witness stand yesterday
continued his testimony when the coal
strike cqnmlssTon opened its sessions
today. On cross-examination by the
miners' counsel he said that the com-
pany would rather let its mines drown
than recognize the union
Several of the company's mines
were flooded. if the steam men had
not been intimidated, he said. there
would have been no dumcnity in keep
lag the workings free of water.
Mr. Jones presented a statement giv-
lngw the earnings for 1901 for the men
who are paid by the day. week or
month. and another statement show»
ing the workings of the miners and la‘
borers beneficial fund from the time
it was organized by the late Franklin
B. Gowen. in l877 down to date. When
the fund was starter] the company con-
tributed 620.000. It has made up all
deficits, whenever any occurred and it
pays all expenses for clerical work to
the fund. Nearly 62.000000 has been
paid out in benefits. he said. ‘
PHILADELPHIA. January 30—Mr.
Jones was subjected to a long cross-
examination on the statement of aver-
age wages for the contract miners. it
developed that the commission sci ctcd
several columns for compilation of the
figures because the task of going over
wages at the thirty- -seven tollleries
would be too great. ’l‘hese colllerles
were Deer Ridge. Kohlnoor. Draper.
Indian Ridge. Preston No. 3. Turkey
Run and Maple Hill. The Reading
(‘ompany dropped the last named from
the list. because in was too hard to get
at the average wages there, owing to
the names of the many Slavs employed
in that mine. Counsel for the miners
polrrted out that the collierlea rank as
follows in the company's list of thir-
ty-seven: First. second. third. fourth.
fifth. tenth. twenty-first. meaty-fourth
ind thirty-fourth. and that therefore.
six of the nine collierlcs selected were
above the general average. Counsel, in
order to show the unreliability of av-
erages. took Indian Ridge colllery as an
example. The average annual wages
for the miners showed that 496 men
figured In this average. and that only
average of 6662.82. or more. and that
476 men. or 96 per cent receive wages
under that average. Chairman Gray
said that the fact that out of the 496
men. 668 worked an average of only
26.4.10 days during the year. should be
taught into consideration. 0n re- direct
mpvorke full time. and received
a tinge of 6 93 for the year
PHILADELPHIA. January 30—0n
re direct exam lion the witness saldi
that Udamen wor ed full time. and re
delved an average of 6593 for the year.
if all the men had worked full time
they would have received the same
wages. The next witness was Joan E.
Davis mine foreman of the Potts col-
liery. it was testified several weeks
ago that a miller named J. P. Clark lost
his position because he testified before
the commission at Scranton. Davis
was called to give his version of the
story. it developed that Clark was
suddenly called to Scranton and did
not have time to notify the foreman.
and that the third day Davl tilled his
place. When clerk came hue and told
where he had been, Davis refused to
take him back because he had filled his
ace. '
Chairman Gray said: "Mr. Davis. we
are sorry that a man. by reason of tes~
tifying before the commission, should
lose his place. We don't think it is
just right."
The commission asked Superintend-
ent John Vclth to reinstate Clark. and
be said that he would.
