NO. 278 STARTLING STORIES TOLD COMMITTEE ABOUT HAPPENING8 IN WEBT VIRGINIA MINXES ' STRIKE. Mr. KauM 8ays 8he Wat Wounded in Left Foot While Acting as a Shield for Her Babies. Governor Glasscock Sayt Refusal of Opera tors to Consent to Arbitration is Responsible for Murders. Charleston, West Virginia, June 1!). The graphic story of n mother un folding her skirts and holding them arm's length in an effort to protect the lives of her three toddling babies, and herself being wounded in the left foot while thus no) inir as a human shield, was related to the commit lee by Mrs. Annie Kause, wife of a min er. She still 'carries I lie bullet in her foot and limped noticeably as she walked to the witness stand. Mrs. Kause was in her little three room house on the night of February 7, when out of the darkness came a rain of bullets from an armored train carrying a machine (run. It was in this shooting that Cisco Kstep was killed while lie, his wife and children were rushing: to the protection of the cellar of their house, rifly yards away. Mrs. Kause said she was in her bed when the first shol was fired and she immediately sprang up and gath ered her three youngest children be hind her in front of the fire place. The shot which wounded her pene trated the front wall of her house, passed through the pint it ion and lodged in her foot. She insisted the shooting came without warning and emphatically denied that either her husband or her two sons had guns or fired at the train. The arrogant refusal of the coal operators to consent to any method of arbitration to settle the strikes was responsible for the murders and rioting which have lasted more than a year, according to former Gover- ,lor Glasscock. Recalled for cross-ex animation, lie' emphatically insisted that if the operators had been will ing to arbitrate in any way the strike could have been settled in its infancy. When the operators pleaded as an excuse for refusing to arbitrate that it would mean virtually recognizing the union. Glasscock said, the 'miners voluntarily waived this point, but still the operators refused to arbi trate. "They told nie thev would settle this thing their own way," the form er Governor said. Mrs. Lucinda Nance, a black-garbed woman, told, with the catch of a tear in her voice, of being held up by mine-guards and driven back when she and two other women were en route to visit a cemetery, where their children were buried. "We only wanted to put flowers on the graves of our babies," she sobbed. All the witnesses tor the miners have agreed that the armed mine guards caused all the trouble. Had they been kept out of Paint and Cabin creek districts there would have been little rioting. And this is one of the chief points of the inquiry that . the Senators are very anxious to clear up. Charleston, W. Va., June 10. The resumption of a bloody warfare in - s the coal fields on a large scale than ever was the outlook as a result of the action of the miners of the New River district voting strike. The out look is serious is the concensus o . opinion. ' Found His Wake in Full Swing. 1 - Kearney, J., June 18.

To Designate Position of "North Car olina Troops in the Battle. Raleigh, June 19. Thirty markers will be used to designate the posi- lons of the North Carolina troops n the battle of Gettysburg. Chair man W. A. Montgomery of the com mission authorised bv the last legis lature to mark the positions of the North Carolina regiments and brig ades in that memorable conflict. Julv 1. 2 and . 1863. left today for the battlefield and will remain until af- cr the celebration of the fiftieth an niversary of the three-dav combat. Prof. Charles IV Pink, of Raleigh, and Mr. W. F. I'tley. of Apex, an other member of the commission, will follow Judge Montgomery. Profes sor Park will have charge of what may be termed the engineering work and will take with him thirty mark ers to be located at the designated positions of the Tar Heel organiza- ons during each of the three dnvs of the battle. The markers are made of wood. thirty inches high, and are painted white, with black lettering. Fach carries an appropriate inscription. which tells its story in the fewest number of words. For example, one marker has upon it the following in scription: "Pettigrew's Rrigade: 11th, 26th, 44th. 47th. ,r)2d Regiments, North Carolina troops. The 44th not present; left in irginm. .Inly 3rd 1863." These markers are lo 1m- used only temporarily. The veterans who go to the celebration in July will be shown over the battlefield and asked to verify oV criticise the placing of the battlefield and exact swits will be located and permanent markers of beautiful granite will be placed. The legislature has made special appro priation to cover this work. Tomorrow Dr. D. X. Hill, president of the A. and M. College, and R. D. W. Connor, secretary of the North Carolina Historical Commission, will leave for Gettysburg. This visit to Gettysburg is the fourth time Judge Montgomery has returned to the scene of the historic engagement and no man in the State has so thorough an acquaintance with that great bat tle, for he has made a special study ofSt on the field. An article by him is considered the best written oif the subject. v One of the great features of the coining reunion of the Blue and the Gray, the largest end most import ant ever held, will be the presence of all the chief surviving officers on both sides, and of many thousands of enlisted men of the then contend ing forces. It was the 26th North Carolina Regiment which at Gettys burg suffered a greater loss than any of the something over three thousand regiments on both sides during the entire war. This was Vance's regi ment, afterwards commanded bv Har ry Burgwyn, who was killed at Get tysburg, and tliii bv John R. Lane. of Chatham county. It was the "Iron Brigade" which slaughtered the 26th. This brigade composed of the 19th Indiana, 24th Michigan, 2d Minnesota, 6th Minne sota and 7th Wisconsin regiments was one of the bravest and most thoroughly trained military organiza tions America , has ever known. Ex- Judge Montgomery graphically tells the story of what the "Iron Brigade did. He savs that on the first dav at Gettysburg it went up against three Confederate brigades in succes sion, in what is known as McPher son's woods. First it struck Archer's Tennessee brigade and the latter was captured and lost half of its force then and there. Next it almost anni hilated Davis' brigade and wjien it met Petttigrew's there was the most savage fighting during the entire war, and the 26th North Carolina Regi ment lost 588 out of 800 officers and men. The "Iron Brigade" for its part lost 1.153 officers and men. It was the latter brigade which had en graved on a gold band around its flag staffs these words: "We don I know how to run. The 6th North Carolina and the 9th Louisana did remarkable work at Gettysburg in the greatest f the charges, Judge Montgomery says, and it was these two regiments which went over the stone wall side by side. The 6th North Carolina was in Hoke's brigade and none of the other regiments in that brigade got over the wall, because their charge was toward the left, but 75 officers and men of the 6th went over it and shot and bayoneted men beyond the wall. A report by General Scales on this charge was made to General Lee after the return to Virginia. Gener al Scales said the slaughter of his men by the fire of infantry and can non' was so frightful that small squads of men, scattered along the line, marked the Bpot where his once splendid brigade had rested. It is easy to see now why both arm ies regarded and now regard Gettys burg as the high-water mark of the great war. :-' '' - - "'' Amsted on Serious Chare. Raleigh, June 18.

Dr. Friedmann Was in Atlanta. Atlanta, June 1!). While the I'. S. government was damning him with faint praise and the city health au thorities of New York ere passing ordinances against him. Dr. F. F. Friedmann, of turtle serum fame, vis ited Atlanta secretly a few days ago and personally administered his treatment lo the son of a prominent Atlanta family, receiving a large sum of money for so doing, and leav ing Atlanta on the next train, with out even the watchful eyes of the newspaper reporters so much as lighting on him going or coming. The fact was not learned until to day, though Dr. Friedmann was here last week. The young man whom he treated is said to have been in a se rious condition, and the treatment was used somewhat as a last resort. What if any improvement lias been noted in his condition, has not been made public. Dr. Friedmann sailed from New York Monday for Germany, carrying 'with him, it is said, a considerable fortune, gained from administering his serum to private patients, in spite of the fact that his public demonstra tions were a failure, and that his methods were frowned on by leading tuberculosis experts of this c onn try.
