By Senator Reyburn:
Q. You were on duty that day?
A. I was on duty continuously from that time until the trouble was over.
Q. When you talked with those men, what reason did they give you. You have said you talked with one?
A. They assigned as a reason for striking that it was on account of the double-headers, slim pay, and so forth. That the men were starving, and all that kind of thing, and that now they proposed to reduce the force, and compel one crew to run two trains, and they did not propose to do it. Various reasons were assigned.
