Becker, whose force of depu- ties wae unable to handle the rioting strikers of the Gould Coupler Works yesterday, began to arrive before dawn, and by @ A. M. the plant was under military protection. The quea- and R, Emmet Moran, all living in Hammond, Ind., were told by my eta- ter Eltzabeth yet Father Sweeney had given me éxpenéive clothes, and thas my room was filled with immod- est pictures, This eo inflamed them that they hastene¢ to Pittaburgh in| |, dafvery. They came to my door at midnight and, after breaking it in, threatened me with revolvers, beat me, knocked me down, choked me and used me ina frightful manner. I was black all Over. “That night one of my brothers re- mained in the room watching me. ‘The next morning my brothers or- dered me to call up Father Sweeney on the telephone. 1 was then ordered to eay that I would meet him in Sewickley, at Walnut and Bank atreeta, at 6.46 o'clock that evening. “With my brothers I was driven in @ large motor car to the meeting]?! place, and when Father Sweeney ar- rived at the spot my brothers, threat- ening him with their revolvers, forced him into the car, We then returned to our home on the north side, “When we had entered the house my brothers pointed their revolvers at Father Sweeney and ordered him to marry me or they would blow out hia brains, “Father Sweeney struck my brother Dan in the face and then my broth- tion of placing the whole town under martial law will not be decided until the arrival here tater in the day of Col.
