HIS STORY Drsrrlhrs Conditions- Which Led o till rimona 'hoot to Kill" Order While an Dotr ' Coal Fields.. PHILADELPHIA. Jan. 9 After occupy ing right days In predentin 150 witnesses the nonunion men. closed their case today before the cr.al strike commission. The coal companies will open tomorrow In the order of the getjeraphloal locatlin of their mines. The Delaware A Hudson, whose collieries are furthest north, will com first and the Reading.' which is Irt the cuthern part of the fli-lda, will in? last. The principal wltnees today was Lieu tenant Governor J. P B. -Gohln, senior irlgadler general of the National Guard of Pennsylvania, who was In command of the Third brigade whrn It was on duty In the hard coal fields. ' ' He snld the sheriff of Carbon county re fuaed to call on the governor for troopa. Counsel for the miners took exception to this statement, and Mr, Dnrrow referred to tbo general as a "wise and genial man." This nettled General Oobln, and he said he had been Invited to testify by the strike commission, and If the "gentleman from Chicago refers to me again as he baa just done I will refuse to answer any of bla questions on his crons-enamlnatlon." Mr. Darrow disclaimed any Intention of being disrespectful. The general aald he bad been asked by the coal companies to protect nonunion men, but he refused be cause he had not sufficient troops. ' He said the situation was most serious. He fearel the railroad men would be intimidated and be would be unable to move troops. Threat ening letters were also sent to him. When he first went into the coal region with his men he was unable for a. time to grt vthlclt-a to carry hi supplies. In Shen andoah and in tho Panther creek valley then was no civil authority at times. Com mittees waited upon him and asiured him that the. striking miners would give him II the Resistance they rould, but as far aa he could remember they ner.r gave h'm any help, though at the same time ho did not ask them to do so. Men Only In Da alter. . The now famous "Shoot to kill' orders leaned by htm, after his soldiers had been attacked by stones, was touched upon by Mr. Darrow. Tho general aaid he meant every word he aald and that the order had most salutary effect upon the communi ties which his soldiers covered. It had such a good effect that It waa not necessary to Are one shot. Mr. Dnrrow called hi at- ' (entfbh to the fact that the order did not except women and children and witness re plied that his men were engaged In fighting men. There was considerable cross-fire over the right of, a sentry to fire upon a man skulk ing about tht camp after dark.

Mr, Darrow re plied: . .1 -...-, .i 1 .v "To show thai, his relations- with. lbs coal companies 'were much more ritendlrto th operators thair4o the workers.') .''That Is not .true," warm)' replied the . general, and the. discussion stopped,'-. 4 M. .Seen avt a FuneraL'' : : ' . ,. . .. ..- . . Rev. Carl Haustf. ' Lutheran minister of, Preeland, said when he .was called upon. to officiate at the funeral- of a nonunion man, in the Panther Creek valley, he ex perienced the- greatest difficulty In secur ing pall bearers'..- . - When the1 body was taken from the house the strikers , yelled "scab" and spat upon the cofTiu. Some of them made such re marks aa:' "It's a shame to bury a 'scab;' throw him to the dogs." John Ervllla of Jedrio, employed by Coxe Bros, during. the atrlke, said he waa at tacked by strikers and had an eye shot out He was unable to recognise his assailant Max Klesleth, another employe of Coxe Bros., also told of having been assaulted. Counsel for the nonunion men then called John Mitchell to the stand and asked him If he knew William Dettrey, who was A C0HPARI30N . la Money and Pood Yalae. 'Toffee had been used In our family for years, and ws all drank it, except Husband - who gave It up some years ago because it Injured 'bis health," write a lady from Granville, Ohio. i "Last year we spent the summer la the nor i aero wooas. Among our table sup- .. piles, unknown to my husband, I had taken ,- along several packages of Postura Food ' Coffee, but It waa stored away and forgotten for week;' during which time we used eolfee. "On day my husband said: . 'I wish It , were possible to get some Postum. , would like tq try It.' Two hours later, at dinner, I served htm a cup, brewed ac cording to. the directions on the package. His .surprise waa complete; the taate - pleased him and he drank a second cup. From that hour we continued to us Pos tura with gratifying satisfaction, and not another cup of coffee has ever come to our table. " ; ' "My .husband found that It did nof pro. duos, tba'l)trsa that forced him to re nounc coffse and that It strengthened bli nerve and stopped all his stomach trouble. Its effect on me was no leas gratifying; though I bad drunk coffee but sparingly, I tad suffered considerably from It. It dls ordered my nerve and. dlsturbed'my liver.

Though we drank Postum more freely and frequently than we had coffee, we found that the large slse package of Postum lasted as long as two pound of coffee, a difference of 45 rents In favor of Postum. Ia a year this saving of money was con llderable, snd this fact recommend Postum to all aeepl who believe la economy. ' a person prejudiced la favor of code would, adult that Postum, properly brewed.
