"DICK" QUAY RESENTS
WASHINGTON PARTY
BETRAYAL OF FLINN
Indorsement of McCormick
Denounced as Cowardly
Abandonment of Progres
sive Cause at Behest of
Boss.
Denounclrm the Indorsement of Vance
C. McCormick ns candidate for Gover
nor by tlio rilnn-bosEcd Washington
Tarty State CummlMte ns a cowardly
betrayal of tile Progressive cause, and
prophesjInR that out of the ashes of
Washington t'ntt turn of November 3
ft III nrlsc n now political condition In
Pennsylvania, nlchard R. Quay, of Pitts
Lurgh, at a number ot conferences w"iui
Philadelphia TioKrcarlc leaders this
morntiiK laid the plans for freeing the
Washington Purtj fiom the domination
of Its present bosses
"The onlv light In Pcnnslnnla to
day," Mr Qun dr-eliuod, "Is between
Congressman A Mitchell Palmer and Sen
ator Penrose Mr PlnchoCs ote will bo
an cntlrolv negligible quantltj. The rc.i
son for this is the trading mid denllnrr
in the first place, and In the second place
the frequent reiterations of Mr. Plnchot
lilmsclf that It hi- bellocd the only way
to defeat Penrose would bo for him to
withdraw he would do so. This vacillat
ing attitude has destrojed the confidence
which out pcopl" had In him."
Mr Qunj, who Is the son of the lato
Senator Matthew Stanley Qun and since
the Inception of the Progressive movement
one of the leaders, came from Pittsburgh
jestcrday to organize the ieolt in the
Progresslo ranks here In hit light
for the dcstiuctlon of the Washington
party machine, Mr Qun spent two houis
with Colonel Roosevelt before he spoke
here Thursd.i night, reviewing with tho
national lender the whole situation In
L j Fennsjlvanln.
rrogressivc men ucre una mu tun
openly admitted that the weakness ot
Roosevelt's speech In the Pirst Regiment
Armory was due alone to the startling
exposuies, of the workings of the Wash
ington part machine made by Mr. Quay.
"Mr. Rcoscelt was bllndlv led Into a
tiap," sci Id u former member of the
Washington Cit Committee thl3 morn
ing after Ills conference with Mi. Qua v.
"Ho was In such a position on Thuisda)
nlfiht that ho could not speik with heart
behind it Hut though he is In a trap he is
not the man who turns back nnd we arc
only wntlng to sec what he will do when
he returns later In the month.
Acting upon the "ucgetlon of the lead
eis in the revolt, manj Washington paity
men this moining reglsteied without party
enrolment lllluni r Deuk n, , one of Mr
Quaj'p confcicib at the Hellu ue-Str.it-foid,
ndmltted that the failure to enrol
under the Washington part was not with
a thought of supporting a new ticket.
"Unfortunately our ees were not opened
In time and now wo are In a dilemma,"
he said
It is understood that before Mr Quay
returns to Pittsburgh a call will be Issued
for all the revolting Washington party
men to rally to the support of Doctor
Jlrumbnugh and the Republican ticket.
This, thev believe, will Indicate the
strongest protest that can be made
ngalnst the Fllnn-Van Valkenburg boss
ism ,. Mr Qua this morning characterized
William Diaper 1fvvls, the Washington
party candidate for Governor, who with
drew In favor of Mr McCormick, ai "a
political babe nursed In the arms of
Mr riinn '
"I vvlied Mr Lewis from Maine," Mr
Quay said "two months before his
withdrawal that 1 had It from authori
tative yources that he was to be taken
from the ticket, and tint such nrtlou
would result in dlsastei to the Progres
sive cause I aked him to rfpl at my
expense To that message I received in)
reply.
"Mr A llhelm, of Pottv llle. and thou
sands of good sine, it I'rogrtsslvi s feel
ns I do ibout the Indnisement of Mr Mc
Cormick It n is ni Ignominious surren
der, nnd will lesult In an ignominious de
feat In November as a protest against
the traitorous leadership in the party
And out of the ahes of defeat then will
nrlso a new political condition In Penn-
ivanla, which wi'l prevent for a long
ans further betraal of the cauto

MEN OF STATE ALL
:0R PENROSE, SAYS FLINN
Jres Charges of Corruption Are
All Lies.
"iTTSimUGH. Oct 3 -Senator William
linn was caustk in discussing today
Evhat Senator Roles Penrose had to say
rabout him In the reply of Penrose to
tho Philadelphia speech of Colonel Theo
dore Roosevelt In an Interview at his
countr place on the Kittanntng pike,
3Ir Fllnn said-
"If I am as bad as Senator Penrose
ras I am I ought to be for him All
the bad men in the State and a few of
the good ones are for him, though he
would not now be a candidate for the
Senatorshlp If he did not have the united,
strenuous support of the liquor Interests
and the big corporations And if It
wasn't for this ver same support, which
is the whole bone ami sinew of his can
vass, he wouldn't receive 100,000 votes in
November
'He Is lvlng when he says I ever re
ceived a contract from the city of Pitts
burgh In which I wasn't the lowest bid
der oi when he s.is that I ever re
ceived one that I wasn't entitled to
"He it) lying when he eajs I ever dealt
In franchises in Pittsburgh I never sold
a franchise In Pittsburgh in my life, and
1 was never Interested In but one ratl
wa franchise in Pittsburgh In my life
"I have been vigorously and conslstent
I) opposed to Penrose ulnce 1S37 I voted
against him as a candidate for the United
Mates Senate In the Legislature of that
jear because I didn't believe he was fit
to represent Pennsylvania In the Senate
I didn't think he was fit then and I
know he Isn't now "

GRAB MEANS 35 PER CENT.
JUMP ON LAND VALUES
Property Owned by McNichol Near Proposed "Marble
Halls" Courthouse Will Increase Enormously in
Price if Job Goes Through
A 55 pc: cent. Increase In the vnlue ot
land owned by Senator James P, Mc
Nichol, ally of Boles Ponrosc, oppoalte
the site of the proposed "marble halls"
of the Municipal Court on the city block
bounded by 20th, 21st streets, Itace and
Vino streets, Is predicted by real estate
dealers who have seen the Court's plans.
Senator McNichol will benclU greatly
from property he owns In tho path of or
adjacent to building by the tlty. He
owns a four-story brick house at 2022
Hace street, directly opposite the land
tho Municipal Court Is planning to grab!
two houses on Arch street, near 17th, and
hlo homo on Iogan square.
Tho latter two properties will rise
enormously when the Parkway Is put
through All would benefit by the grab.
Tho Prtrkway will cut Into Logan square
within four doors of the McNichol house
and the Arch street properties at 127-1629
Arch street will be near enough the Park
way to reap n benefit of a rise of at least
33 per cent. ...
JlcNIchol's propel ty on Itace street Is
mbst happily situated. It faces a tall
brick wall now, but If tho Penrone-Mc-Nlchol
Council"! force through ordinances
to follow the "opening wedge," as a
Municipal Court otndal called the first
move, the "Administration Uulldlng" of
the court group will be directly across
the street.
"GIIAB" TO HAtSn LAND VALUES.
Property alues near the land grab will
advance sharply the minute the second
move H made, according to real estate
men, who placo ths stencral Increase at
not less than 33 per cent, for adjacent
property. This estimate Is conservative,
for the chaiacter of the buildings for the
Municipal Court Is not jet known defi
nitely. That they will be UuUh and Im
posing no tne doubts. Propcrtv values
will rise In direct proportion to the mag
nificence of the buildings.
I. i:dard Lutz, of HO North Seven
teenth street. Is one of the real estate
dealers who saw a sharp Increase In
property alues In the plans of the Mu
nicipal " Court.
"If that plan goes through," he said,
looking at tho architect's sketch sent out
bv the Municipal Court, "It will mean a
great dcat to property In this section.
Of course property adjacent to the Mu
nicipal Court tract will be the most di
rectly benefited."
Ho was asked how great the Inciease
would be
"Adjacent property should be worth at
lcait 35 per cent, more," he replied.
Clarence P. Wjnnc, a real estate dealer
at Thirteenth and Walnut streets, also
piedlctcd a substantial rise In aluc for
propel ty facing the proposed site of the
Municipal Court. Only adjacent prop
crt would be benefited, he thought.
PREDICTS RAPID RISC.
"You may expect a substantial rise In
value if those buildings are put up In
that block," said Mr. Wynne when he
s.iw tho map. "The Increase should be
aa great as 23 or 33 per cent. 1 should
s.i about 33 per cent. Real estate Is
very quiet In that section now, thoush
there has been a gradual advance. But
there will surely be a rapid rise In aluo
If the buildings so magnificent ns those
are erected there "
Mr. Wynne explained that a wall around
the Municipal Court group would affect
the advancing values In adjacent prop
erty. A line running around the group
as shown on the map might be taken
etlher as a wall or a hedge. Mr. Wynne
decided It must be a hedge, tt Is un
likely the Municipal Court official would
have a high wall built around their
marbtc halls. In the opinion of those who
hat'e seen the map,
"Even If there were a wall," said Mr.
Wynne, "tho property would advance In
value because the grounds Inside It would
be visible from all but the llrst floor
windows. If apartment houses arc built
on the street nurroundlng tho site, as
might be expected, view would be un
obstructed except at the ntrect level. I
should say that at least 35 per cent, ap
preciation might be looked for In the
value of property around those build
ings." McNICHOL'S PROPERTY.
On the McNichol property, directly
ncross from the site, which would reap
tho 35 per cent, harvest, Is a four-story
brick house. It Is occupied by Daniel J.
McNichol, brother of Senator McNichol,
and treasurer of the McNichol Paving
and Construction Company.
There will be mnny walks and malls
scattered about between the marble halls
according to the Municipal Court's plans.
These will need the services of a paving
company. Tho construction company
that gets the contracts for building the
marble hall-j will hao a profitable piece
of work, It Is acknowledged.
PALMER DECLARES OLIVER
JUST REVERSED CHARGES
"That's What I said About Him,'
Comment On Senator's Attack.
Representative A, Mitchell Palmer, who
arrived at the Bellevue-Stratford Hotel
today from McKcesport, Pa , answered
tho attack on him made by United States
Senator Olher at Washington by de
claring, "That's Just what I said about
him " Senator Oliver gave out a state
ment jestcrday In answer to charges
based on his record by Palmer, and ad
mitted that he visited Europe last
winter.
Palmer declared today that the chief
rcabon for his uttask on the rerords of
Penrose and Oliver was dne to the fact
that while ho was In Washington nl
merous persons visited him, seeking the
Senators from Pennsylvania, and never
were able to find them.
He declared that since December 1,
Penrose has spent but six dajs at Wash
ington. As to tho visit of Colonel Roose
velt to this city, Mr. Palmer expressed
the opinion that it undoubtedly would
haxe a great deal of influence against
Penroselsm In tho coming election.
The Democratic Senatorial candidate
denied that he and Gilford Plnchot met
at the Fort Pitt Hotel, III Pittsburgh
last night He said he came to thli city
directly from McKeespoit and did not
stop o Ifat Pittsburgh.
KNOX, GOING BACK TO WORK,
AVOIDS CANDIDACY TALK
No Political Significance in Return
to Pittsburgh, He Says.
Former Secretary of State Philander C.
Knox lias declined to deny or afllrm tho
persistent report that ho Is to bo a can
didate for United States Senator to suV
ceed Senator Oliver when tho term of
the latter expires. Mr. Knox has said
that ho will make his first address In
support of tho Republican ticket at tho
Manufacturers' Club, October 17, and un
til that tlnio declines to discuss politics
"There Ii nothing significant about my
return to Pittsburgh," he said "No po
litical significance about It at all. I'm
simply going back to the practice of law
After a rest I feel the need of work nnd
I'm Just going back to get Into harness
again "

Quality Firtt
A Limousine of European Lines
at an American Price
To enjoy the fullest luxury in an
enclosed car it ia no longer neces
sary to buy an expensive, specially
made body or to purchase a $5000
or $6000 car,
Many of those who appreciate the
advantages of an enclosed car have
learned, in increasing numbers each
season, that in the Chalmers they can
secure all the essential comfort, ele
gance, and luxury of the costly
European limousine at a moderate
American price.
Beauty and Elegance
For 1915 the Chalmers Limou
Bine offers even greater value than
ever before. Its beauty of lines, its
elegance of finish, its correctness of
design and equipment appeal to all
women of taste. The mechanical
perfection of its well-tried Chalmers
chassis.and its remarkable value at
the price make an equally strong
appeal to men.
Style and Protection
The rourided-back, French-type
aluminum" body gives, we believe,
the smartest style, thegreatest room
iness, and the most complete protec
tion ever offered in enclosed cars. It
is sound-proof for the one-piece
arched aluminum roof is free from the
vibration or drumming common to so
many enclosed cars. Weather and
draft proof for the flush doors and
metal bound windows fit to a nicety.
Upholstery is of the best import
ed cloths blue German Wolfing
cloth or English Bedford cord as you
choose; Carpets, floor cushions and
interior trimmings are made to
match. Appointments include
electric dome and shoulder lights,
concealed running board lights,
pockets, arm rests, disappearing
seats, speaking tube, imported toilet
case and specially designed safety,
storm-vision windshield.
Mechanically Dependable
The mechanical parts of the car
are so perfect and so dependable that
you need never think of them. Silent,
smooth -running, unobtrusive, the
mechanism of the car assures you
of uninterrupted service.
Fully to appreciate this Limousina
you must see it. We shall be glad to
show it at our salesrooms or to
arrange for a demonstration at your
convenience. Pleasecallortelephone,
