MITCHELL CONTROVERSY GROWS BITTER Citizens’' Alllance Makes Reply to Several Things Are WILKESBARRE, Pa., Aug. 2.—The lead- ors of the striking miners promise to spring a surprise in a few days. They claim that after an investigation they find that miners’ certificates are being {ssued contrary to law and that the reciplents of the cer- tifie: w the inside of a coal mine, are being pressed into the service of the coal com- Ppanies. In this way it is claimed the companies ing the number of their em- w men, while they may not to mine coal, can load it. The bosses can do the mining. Between the two it will be possible for some of the mines to resume work on a small scale. The strikers claim that the certificates are not being, issued by mine examining boards. but by some person or persons who have access to the ofelal papers. Criminal prosecutions are promised. The controversy between President Mitchell and the Citizens’ Alliance 1s grow- ing in bittern The alliance made reply today to the letter Jabilined yestarday by Mr. Mitchell. Stripped of some of its per- sonalities the letter re: Make Reply to Mitehell, “Mr. Mitchell: You decline to say In behalf of the union and yourself that you condemn boycotting, rioting and violence perpetrated to prevent men from working. Indeed, you leave the distinct and une pleasant impression that you do not con- demn these things. “If you were sincere in your frequent protestations against lawlessness you would not refuse, as you do refuse, to proclaim, we requested, your positive, pointed and pecific condemnation of that worst type of lawlessness which undertakes to pre- vent men from freely working for whom they please and on such terms as they please; nor would you pour vials of your wrath on an organization which we admit has no such intent to prevent lawlessness on the part of all those who are gullty of its commission, but do aim to suppress that worst form of lawlessness which thrives on the fear of its victims to pro- test and the civil aithorities to protest agalnst its prepetration. You are credited with having said: ‘Deprecate lawlessness committed by anyone and particularly by men on strike’ which, stripped of its bypocrisy, means that you object to law- breaking because it hurts the strikers and not because it hurts soclety. “Ho far as the alllance s concerned, it annoutces that the controversy is now olosed." L arand Chiet P. H. Morrissey of the haod of Rallway Trainmen, bas sent n letter to one of the local officers of the order, in which he says that practical ms- sistance will. be accorded to the striking miners at the opportune moment. He does not favor sympathetic strikes, but admi that the executive officers of the vario brotherhoods have agreed upon a plan, the nature of which has not been disciosed.

Mr. Bryan stated that primarily it wi his purpose to deal with the moral phase of the subject. He regarded the cultiva- tion of the moral element as a paramount fssue and declared that history supportes his contention that moral decay had pre- ceded the ruin of aurr nation that had fallen. ‘A nation,” 1d Hr.

It s al- leged Within the last three years eight other Infants have been buried from the woman’s house. Yesterday Dr. Welfeld was called to the Campbell house to attend the infant which has since died. He found it in | — such a condition that he refused to issue a death certificate, claiming that the child died of starvation. ‘The assertion that eight children bave died in the house is made by Viola Camp- bell, 14 years of age. Mrs. Campbell says that she is the mother of the girl, who claims that Mrs. Campbe ‘“.as sald on other occasions that she was wuot a relative of hers. A letter was received at the Camp- irl claime, which was written by John Reade, a printer of Cincinnati. In this letter Reade told the &ir1 that ho was her father and that she had been kidiaped from her home in Cincinnati ten years ago. Concerning the children who, according to the girl, Campbell says that they were recelved from a woman living on Wall street in this city.

Thery is mo evidence against Mrs; ‘Campbell save i that of the girl Viola Campbell, but Police Inspector Whéeler, who has the case in charge, declares that he belleves her story that the bodies of the children determine their number.
