racts ascertained. speranza asserts
that he has corroborative evidence to
support the charges made by Italian
laborers who had come to Beckley
from the construction camp and who
refused to return there, that they had
their hands tied and were then hitched
to a mule and were about to be taken
back to the camp when a justice of the
peace interfered and cut the rope. In
other places he visited there were
scattered charges of brutality, some of
them of excessive brutality, to laborers
engaged in railroad construction, and
Speranza says he has a number of af
fidavits to support the allegations that
were made.
