Hearing Indicates That Rosen jack, Who Saw Cherry Disaster, Is Paid to Keep Away—Child La bor Law Violated. CHERRY, 111., Dec. 4,-Details of a se cret conference at night in a lonely cross road near Cherry, In which Alexander Rosenjack, the fugitive mine witness, was assured of financial support by an agent for the St. Paul Coal company today, was revealed by reluctant witnesses before the Joint investigating commission. The conference occurred late last night, and was between Fred H. Buck, son of the chief clerk for the coal company. Both of the Bucks concealed the facts even after they were summoned to the witness stand today. Frank Buck, the elder, stubbornly refused to answer ques tions even when threatened with jail. "You can't scare me. I’m not afraid of going to jail,’ replied Buck. It was the first indication that the coal corporation or the Chicago. Milwaukee and St. Paul road were endeavoring to i block the present investigation and cause i the state officials and Coroner Malm im | mediately to shift their line of inquiry. Any doubt as to the authority upon which the Bucks acted In assisting Ros lenjack to escape was removed by a state ment made in the evening by Frank Buck, the younger man. I "I have every assurance that my sal ary will continue while I am in jail, so I I have nothing to fear,” he said. "My wife will be provided for, no matter what they do to me.' Just who informed members of the commission of last night's conference is not known. ELDER BUCK DEFIANT. Late in the afternoon session, however, the younger Buck was summoned per emptorily to the Inquisitorial chambers Instead of answering personally the father appeared. From the first the elder Buck's attitude was one of defiance. I "Have you received communications of 'any form from the missing Rosenjack within the last few days?” asked Chair man Traer. ”1 refuse to answer.’ was the reply. "Isn’t It a fact that this man was In the city of Cherry last night?” "That depends where the town limits are.” "Well, was he In the vicinity of Cher- 1 ’"I refuse to answer.” again said Buck. | After several more questions. Attorney Steadman told the witness that he was I placing himself in a perilous position by defying the coroner and the commission. 1 "Well, what can you do If I don’t an swer?" demanded Buck. "We can put you In jail, and the sher iff is here right now ready to take you over to Princeton.” said Steadman. However, it was agreed to delay def inite action until Monday. The younger Buck was questioned im mediately after his father was dis dismissed. "Yes. I saw Rosenjack.” he admitted, in reply to a question. "But I did not consider It my duty to tell the officers about it.” "Isn’t it a fact that you have author ised the state bank of Cherry to ad vance a salary to Rosenjack during the period that he is in hiding?” he was asked. AUTHORIZED BANK. “I have authorised the bank to advance him money.” said Buck. Meanwhile, the search for Rosenjap-c continues. Every member of the Joint investigat ing commission tonight said that unless : the missing man is found within the next 24 hours the prospects are that either or ;both of the Bucks may go to jail for ! aiding and abetting the escape of an im portant witness. Complete responsibility for the entire cost of the lives of the 310 men In the St. Paul mine was assumed today by a I boy. who by his own admission, had been (employed by the mine In violation of the child-labor law. ! The boy told members of the Joint in- I vestigatlng commission that he never had I been warned of the danger of the open 1 torches used in the mine, and that he ’ never had been Instructed by anybody connected with the mine just what his ‘duties were. The story was told by Matt Francisco, a trapper who was among the first to escape from the burning mine. He de clared . that he with Bob Dan another trapper, who was one of those brought into question, and who as mys teriously disappeared shortly after the fire, unwittingly pushed the hay-laden car against a torch that was dripping burn ing oil. thus bringing about the fire that destroyed the mine. Following close upon the testimony of i Francisco came a frank admission from 1 State Mine Inspector Thomas Hudson. |ln whose district the St Paul is located, •hat he had not visited the mine since last July, and that he was in utter ig norance of the fact that such torche? were being used instead of the electric lighting system that he knew was part of the equipment of the mine.

FISHERMEN FIRE ON CONSTABULARY; 11 DEAD MANILA, Dec. 4.—Fanatical Moros and Sananos forced a fight upon a detach ment of constabulary under Lieutenant Alarts, near Mount Malindang, Mindanao island, last Sunday. Six members of the constabulary, four porters and one po liceman were killed, and one of the con btabulary was wounded. The aggressors left 2t> of their number dead when they i finally scattered. Some 4,000 fanatics gathered in the vl- : clnity of the mountains two weeks ago, | and Governor Fershing anticipated dis- order. Constabulary reinforcements have been sent to the scene of the fight, but no further trouble is expected, as the tribesmen were reported to be returning to their homes.
