POLICE COURT THE HEARING OF THE: IN- TERFERENCE CASE The Evidence of Murray Who Came From Dundas to Work-- 'How the Picquets Talked to Him. When the olin court rosiimad ses- sion at two o'clock, Dr. Smythe ana the magistrate had a conference with reference totthe minute book of the union, when it was decided that if, the book was produced it would not be subject to public scrutiny or to general, minute exaniination. The first witness called was John Murray, the "hone of contention." He testified that he was a machinist and came here' from Dundas on. Thursday last. : Mr. Whiting b produced correspond- ence which passed between the com- pany ant witness, who was offered twenty-five cents an hour and a bon- us of £5 a week for . the first four weeks after his coming here. The eom- pany informed him that: there had been n strike of machinists, but it had practicelly been ended .by reason of the importation of machinists from the Old Country, Continuing. witness testified that on Thursday. after arriving in the city, he reported at the Locomotive works at about nine o'clock in the morning, and was ordered to to work at one o'clock. At that hour he was approached by Wilson and another man. -- Wilson ;told him [there was a strike on, but that it was nearly over: if witness would go in now it would be the worse for him, because he would be annoyed and woula get hia discharge as soon as the strike was settled. They {further informed him that the strike was on stronger than ever. The conversation did not last longer than five or ten minutes, when he walked away with the two men, having made up his mind that it he®was to annoyed he would not in to work. The two men took him to a hall or lodge room. On the way there, he told the two men that on account of the way 'he was fixed he could not go home. They replied that they could fix that, but not down there. While in the lodge room McWaters and Holding entered, with others. The strike and the ques- tion of his leaving were discussed by those present, and the outcome was that upon his deciding to go back home, they agreed to pav his way, he agreeing to take the money by wav of a loan. He was taken in a street car by Mr. Holding and escorted * to the outer station. The fact was men- tioned that it would be better to take witness to the outer junction, as it would not do for him to be seen at the inner station. Witness was in Mr. Holding"s company at the outer junc- tion, when Mr. Bermingham and Mr. Yellowley arrived. Mr. Holding gave witness $5, which he returned upon agreeing to return to work. In accept- ing the money from Holding, he had agreed to repay it upon receiving his first wages at Dundas. (Cross examined by Dr. Smvthe.-- Went from Winghamy to Dundas to work before coming here. Knew there had been a strike on at the Locomo- tive woeks before coming here. Is not a union man. Believed the statement to be true; that the strike was praec- tically over: found it to be substanti- ally true upon arriving here..Did not know before leaving Dundas that the seventy-five-men-who had. gone.out.on strike. were still 'out; may possibly not have come down had, he known that. Did not feel like staying here at first after finding out that the sev- enty-five strikes" wiresstit "on. strike, hecause he- had been Fiven to wunder- stand that he would be subjected to annoyance. A Witness came intp communicatioa with the company by reason Of ans- wering the company's advertisement. Jesides weekly wages, witness receives 23 a week ~bonus from the Metal Trades Association; does not receive any other inducement for remaining here. Upan approaching the works to go to work --at one o'clock Thurs: day, was approached by Wilson, who was joined by Brouse a few "minutes later. Wilson told witness the strike was on stronger than ever. Witness told Wilson he understood the strike was about over. The magistrate desired to learn just what part Brouse took in the con- versation, 'and witness stated that nearly all the conversation took place place between himself and Wilson. Was told by Wilson that "we can fix that" matter" when: witness told them of his shortage money. Was told bv Wilson, "You can do as you like about going in." Told Wilson he could aot work at Dundas;--but--found---it difficult in obtaining a house for family. In the union hall, the prin- cipal pgrtion of witness' conversation was with McWaters © and Holding. Was in the hall over an hour, and was of opinion that Wilson was present when arrangement was made (to loan | "him. money. Was accompanied from the hall to his boarding hause by Holdig. At the otter station, wit. changed his mind and decided | 'to remain because he was told the other side of the story.

While the Scotchmen were on Simeoe Island Mr. Holding and Mr. Peterson rowed over, and Mr. Holding landed and held a con- versation with a 'number of the Scotchmien, in the presence of wit- ness, tr; to induce them not to go to work for the company. Subsejuently three, oi the' Scotch- men started to leave the: city. = They seemed to be in charge of Holding and Brous:; the last named. placed the baggage of the Scotchmen aboard the steamer, while they were accompanied by Holding. The Scotchmen were un- der contract with the company. Re- garding Murray, had been told Thars- day aflernoon that the new arrival had been intercepted by the picquets. Later on, found Murray in Holdings company atthe outer depot. : Cross- examined by Dr. Smythe-- Was told that there wus some 'doubt as the validity of the 'contracts drawn up in Scotland, so had them. all drawn over again here, word for word as originally drawn up, with the addition' that any man remaining in the company's emplgyme nt for Six months, and whose conduct was above reproach, would receive an additional bonus of $30. Saw Angrove an Knowles, two strikers, at Gananoque talking to some of the strikers, "and gave them warning that the company would no longer "tolerate such inter- ference. Between seventy-five land eigh- ty machinists and apprentices went out on strike; the places of 'these men are now pretty well filled. Did not in- sert an advertispment for machinists. Corresponded a Toronto detective agency with a view to obtaining 'evidence against striking machinists. Corresponded with a man named Pratt with that end in view. ¢ In explanation, Mr. Bermingham stated that the strikers had turned back men whom the company had en- gaged, and it was difficult to obtain sufficient evidence on which to prose- cute them, so it was for that purpose that Pratt was corresponded with. Continuing, * witness stated that Pratt came here and was allowed to go to work unmolested. "This ended the case for the prosecu- tion, as far as Wilson was conceried. Dr. Smythe announced that he would not offer any evidence in Wilson's case. He would consult with his clients and, if possible, would have the evidence now in, apply in all three cases, so as to facilitate matters. Court was' adjourned until to-mor- row morning, when the argument of counsel will be begun, RESOLUTIONS PASSED. with Having Reference to Farmers' Te- mands. Sept.

Bonuses and bounties were declared to he un- just and their discontinuance was de- manded. Tt was asserted that agricul- ture bears an unfair portion ofthe burden of taxation and called for the assessment of railway and other pub- lic service corporations, so as to make them bear their share. of taxation. A transportation committee légal, not political, to fix railway rates was de- manded. Drainage and cattle guard legislation was also demanded. A pro- test was registered against the ."in- crease of the tariff. Toronto, Fashion Hints For Autumn. The Delineator for October. The new drop vokes produce the ef- fect of very drooping shoulders and are" shown in many of the newest mo- dels 'with the voke of all-over lace ex- tending over the sleeves: : Seams in slot effect remain the dis- tinguishing note in many 'of the new skirts: and jackets and also in the smart shirt-waists. There is nothing daintier than well- made and exquisitely deeorated linoe- rie and since the vogue of faggoting gowns, separate vokes, collars, ete., at its height, this dainty needlework is likewise applied to underwear. The stitch employed is usually the plain faggoting or herringhone. There is a wide assortment of heavy textured or "mannish" goods they are termed. any one of which is ap- propriate for jacket-and-skirt suits. Boulevard velvet cords are. shown in a wide assortment of colors, and there is no more fashionable material for walking or street costumes. Embroidery and fancy stitches are the: inevitable mark of distinction on evervthing from the dainty stock-col- Har to the even daintier hose. Fashion has decreed the extensive use of pendant and ball trimmings this season; and a great "variety exhibited:Both-hlack-and-eolored sam- ples are procurable, as well as bits of | metal" ant] enamel from which irides- | cent beads and_spangles are suspend- ted.
