The members of the Senate com¬ mittee stared in amazement aa wit- ncs.s after wltnes.s described how a peaceful community had been stirred to revolt, believing themselves to be cut off from the rest of the comitry and deprived of the means of makin? a livelihood. Harry Broad, described how the machine giin.s had been placed in an armored car. in such a position as to rake e\-ery point along the line of travel and the part played by the ar¬ mored train in the three day battle at Mucklow. Former Governor Glasscock charg¬ ed the mine owners with full respon¬ sibility for the lawle.sts conditions ire- vaiiing in the coal region. The Avlt- ness .said if the operators signed the agreement presented to them by him 1 the strike would have been settled Ions ago.

E BIG BUSINESS BEFORETtlE lECISLATUillllOSING DAVS A Fijjht to Be Made Tomorrow Xijfht on the Ap¬ propriation Bills—The Senate Will Take Fa¬ vorable Action on the Labor Measures. (Special to Independent.) Harrisburg, Jume 14.—\\~ith lees than two weeks before it, th« Legisla¬ ture is facing the problem of passing finally all of the big election bills, the labor bills, the working^nen's compeasatlon bill, the public uiiiities bill, the administration "blue sky" bill, the general and special appropri¬ ation billa, the Btate armorj' bill, the coal tax bill and nirmerous other im¬ portant or pet m»a»ures now elth'='r tied up in commltti'^e, on the postponed calendar or tn conference committee Is a period so brief that many of those who are trying to guide legislation here q-uestlon if it con be done. The House hag decided to adjourn OTi Jun« 26 and wh!!* the Senate has referred the resolution to committer it is bellea-ed that it will be trrougbt out and passed a few days before, tho dati= named. The passage of the ad¬ journment resolution against the pro- ; test of 't?peaker Alter was the result I of a large number of meml" rs hivinc; cxhrjusted their funds. Regardless of party pledges they deddad they wou'd go home because they had n 1 money -with which to finance a further ex¬ tended stay In Harrisburg. Teh effect of this re«olutlj!i Is to put the Housp absolutely at the mfr- cy of the Senate. As the situation now appears the Senate can force the House to accept le.giflation in the .shape tbe Senat* desires or to re.ject it entirely, and as quite considerp.ble number of the bills yet to be pRssed hold little interest for the Sena'e soit:e of them may fall because the ilf-c;se win decline to accept them in what its leaders term an "emasculatiPd form."

It was reported jthat an agreement had been r&nched : on the compensation measuTS' by strlk- I ing out the •elective clause and a(MlBg a provision for State insuraJice. but ; Senator Crow, father of the eJectlv* amendment, says he knows ncftlilng of !lt. It is likely that an effort will b« niadrf' to get a really effectiw* bill I tbrough the Legislature the eotninc ¦ j week. j The Senate will pass finally the la- ; j bor bil's in the form in whioh tJ»»- ¦commille^e on judiciary special has} I reported them, reducing the leg^ i ¦working week to 54 hours, but ppovid- i ing for an elastic clause which whils • I leaving the .54 averag* stind will per- ; ¦mit employers In f»se of holidzLj', seol- dent, etc.. to work overtime durtnff' a short period.

June 14.—One scant frac¬ tion of a goal—a bare foot hold, kept j the international polo trophy in Am- ( erica. At a moment when the British | had the Am-?rlcans at a disadvantage j a slip reduced the F.ritisners a frac- I -ion below thnt of the American squad ; .and the ; econd game of the great j match at Meadowbrook this after- j noon ended -with the score of 4 1-2 I to 4 1-4 In favor of .\merica.

The British captain» made a : des-parate effort to gain their lost advantage, but the 'i'anks defended , strongly, until the finish when the Kngli.-hmen spent their fury in wild ; efforts to cross the .^meri. an goal, but it was a much more spectacu'ar ¦ g,->me than the first. j After the closing bell, thou.sands of enthusiasts broke through the en¬ closure, gathered around tht .Am¬ erican team nnd cheeied c-.ntinuous- ly.

The final score was 4 1-2 goals to 4 1-4 which fittingly express¬ es the spirit of the gigantic struggle It w-as a significant match in every ¦way. It was better in all re.spects tha.-» the first one. One would h?ve to go a long way before he would see mor»- brilliant plays and greater inter.*** displayed than in today's game.
