A. No. There were men here about the yards and depots to see that the peace was preserved, but they made no arrests, I believe, in connection with people in leaving trains. They did make arrests of some people for destroying some oil cars.
Q. On the Pennsylvania railroad?
A. On the junction road.
By Senator Yutzy:
Q. Did you, as president of the Pennsylvania Railroad Company, at any time, make any requisition on the State authorities for troops to protect your property?
A. Not at all. The State authorities were called out, as I understood, on a requisition from the county of Allegheny.
Q. By the sheriff?
A. Yes.
Q. Have you any knowledge of any officer of the Pennsylvania Railroad Company calling on the Governor for troops?
A. None whatever. They, no doubt, suggested to the Governor of the State that it was his duty to put the force in such a position as to preserve peace and order.
