Sheriff S. B, Sproul and Jury Commis
sioners Jacob Wise and James Stuart,
charged with malfeasance In office, was
called before the Grand Jury today by
District Attorney John B. Hannum.
In December, 1311. the community was
shocked by the dlecovery that M names
wore found In the jury wheel which had
not been selected by the court The
nlgnlncance of this discovery, it was
rolnted out, was that the Jury to be
selected for the trial of criminals would
not be an unbiased on, but would con
sist In part of those whose names, tt
was alleged, had been Improperly placd
there to protect prominent Kepubllcan
officials and politicians accused of forg

NEW YOUIC, Sept. IS. Under a ruling
handed down by Justice Jaycox, ot tho
Supreme Court, In Brooklyn, Mrs. Esther
Dltson, of Cedarhurst, It. I., wife of
James Dltnon, a wealthy clubman of
Now Tork and Washington, has been
granted $250 a month alimony and J1000
counsel fees pending final settlement of
her divorce suit. The order was granted
despite Dltson'n affidavit alleging that it
was arranged between him and his wife
that he would enter a hotel with a woman
and glvo evldenco upon which to base a
divorce suit.
Dlston spends much of his time In ex
clusive social circles In Washington nnd
Is a frequent visitor to Philadelphia. Ho
Is a member of tho Chovy Chase and
Metropolitan Clubs, of Washington, nnd
Is heir under the will of his millionaire
grandfather, Oliver Dlston, of Washing
ton. Ho Is a nephew of Charles H. Dls
ton, music publisher of No. 8 East 34th

ried In 1909. Mrs. Dlston first heard the
stories that Induced her to watch her
husband when they were living In Wash
ington. Dlston's affidavit, admitting collusion
with the alleged knowledge and consent
of Mrs. Dlston, came unexpectedly In
answer to hnr divorce suit. In his affi
davit he said It was arranged between
hlmBelf and his wife that ho would pro
vide the necessary evidence.
Ho says that when Mrs. Dltson's de
tectives entered the room In a Tori hotel
here one evening last May and found him
.with a woman, even the detectives were
ignorant of tho plot known only to him
self and wife. So secret did he keep the
facts In the caso, Dltson swears, that he
did not Inform lib lawyer, Gllbort E. Hoe.
and permitted him to put In an unverified
answer denying Mrs. Dltson's charges.
Roe told Justice Jaycox that he was
unable to say whether or not collusion
would be UBed as a dofense In the suit.
Roe added he had advised Dltson of his
Intention to -withdraw from the case.
Counsel for Mrs. Dltson asked permis
sion to file an affidavit denying thero had
been collusion.

With the preliminary educational cam
paign of "Safety First" week nearly ovor,
the city Is now awaiting with great In
terest the opening of tho convention and
carnival proper tomorrow night nt Con
vention Hall, Broad street and Allegheny
avenue. The educational campaign was
brought to a climax last night by a
largo maea-mectlng In tho ballroom St
tho Bellevue-Stratford, under the aus
pices of tho Home and School League.
Olllclula of the lcaguo expressed great
fsfcatlbfactlon today In tho Interest dis
played In "Safety Week," not only by
tho public nt largo, but by the railroads,
tho Rapid Transit Company and other
tlarge employers of labor who are earn
estly trying to solve the problom of In
dustrial accidents, most of which aro
proventable.
Tho problem of accidents and safety in
general was brought Into strong relief at
the meeting last night when Franklin H.
Wentworth, of Boston, shocked the audl
onco by bringing out the general admis
sion that few of those present know where
tho nearest fire box to their homos was or
how to glvo nn alarm. Mr. Wentworth
said that the great majority of fires In
this country were caused by the careless
use of matches. Americans, he said, were
tho most careless people In the world
In dealing with matches. The result of
this carelessness, Mr. Wentworth said.
Is the great number of fires accompanied
by loss of llfo.
Director Porter told of what Is being
done by the Department of Public Safety
to protect the lives nnd property of tho
citizens of Philadelphia. Director Porter
spoko ot tho many Improvements In traffic
regulations, which, he Bald, havo reduced
tho number of street accidents to a large
oxtcnt, and to the fact that the theatres
of the city have been compolled to spend
$300,000 In Insuring greater safety. Mr.
Porter, although he gave great praise to
the efficiency of Philadelphia's llrcflghters,
said the equipment of the Fire Depart
ment In this city needed Improvement.
He spoke of the defective engines held
In reserve, of antiquated flro boxes In
many parts of the city and of the de
fective fire hose which firemen are com
pelled to use.
Mrs. Joseph R. Wilson, head of the
committee in charge of the week's pro
gram, made an appeal for greater care
In the prevention of accidents and dis
ease duo to carelessness. She said that
while tho Government, city State and
national, had Its duty to perform In this
regard. It was up to tho people to do
their share In exercising greater care
and Judgment in their home", in their
places of employment and In tho street.

COUNCIL IN POLICE MUDDLE
"Wilmington Body Opposes Plan to
Name Mounted Squad.
WILMINGTON, Del., Sept K.-Ws-plsasod
over the manner in which the
Police Commission recently appointed
eight members of the local police force
for a mounted aqua'd, City Council last
night talked over a resolution rescinding
the one allowing the appointment of the
men and providing 116,000 appropriated to
increase the pay ot the present men.
Action was postponed for two weeks.
Of the eight men appointed to positions
four failed In physical examinations.
Members of the Police Commission de
clare It Is now too late for Council to
stop them, and President William H.
Bowers says that as soon as suitable
men ars found they will be put on duty.
Since there was a olash over the man
ner In whloh the men were appointed
some members of Council have tried to
block the whole affair. It Is not expected
that the Police Commission will pay any
attention to the resolution pendinr in
Council and will have the men appointed
and on duty before the resolution Is acted
upon. Boms Counollmen are unwilling to
vote for Increase in the pay of the police
force because, they say, the force was In
competent because It failed to quoll the
recent race riots until the mllttla was
called out.
