'mm CONSIDER
PLAN TO INCREASE
NUMBER 0F1ARDS
Republicans Favor Division
of 40th, 46th and 38th
and Suggest Chiefs for
New Districts.
l'Un for the divIMon of three of tho
i InrgB wtird In tho city nro belnct consld
tfed by Republican lenders. The wards
are the 40th nnd 46th. In West Philadel
phia, and the 3Sth, In Tlojcn. if tho plans
aro carried out Philadelphia will havo Bt
wards after the next election Instead
of 43.
The plans for preparing petitions to
the court and for tho appointment of
commissions to decide the linos of di
vision have been discussed with a view
to cutting these sections so as to not
cripple any present leadership.
A movement to dlvldo tho 46th Ward,
which now extends westward from 4Sth
hatred to tho county line, and from Market
gstrcet to Baltlmoro avenue, recently pro
gressed so far that a commission was
appointed by tho courts, but when the
courts learned one of tho commissioners
had signed the petition for tho division,
the Judges threw out the commission.
They ruled, however, the potltlon was
valid, and that a new commission could
be appointed. It the ward Is split, Harry
A. Mackey, the present leader, will be
tho leader of the old ward, and City Com
missioner Frank J. Gorman will be the
lender of the new ward.
Tho splitting of the 38th Ward Is giving
tho Republican leaders cause for more
dlacURsIon than cither of tho other wards.
Sheriff A. Lincoln Acker, City Committee
man James E. Walsh nnd Representative
Slgmund J. Sans, the ward leaders, all
live In one corner of the present ward.
Ex-Common Councilman John Lamon and
John Ilohenadel havo been suggested for
tho leadership of tho now ward.
The 40th Ward Is one of tho largest
wards In Philadelphia and, Is growing
'rapidly. It embraces all of West Phila
delphia below Uattlmore avenue. Harry
D. Hcaston Is tho present lender, but he
has virtually turned the leadership over
to Common Councilman Qcorgo Conncll.
The plan Is to divide the ward nt 62d
street and mnke Mr. Conncll and Harry
W. Mace tho leaders of tho two wards.
Manufacturers nnd labor leaders will
hold meetings In Harrlsburg, starting to
morrow, to consider various problems
that will probably come beforo tho next
Legislature. State ofllclals will co-operate
with soma of them and will address
others. Several of tho commissions
named by tho Inst Legislature ara ex
pected to make their reports while tho
conferences aro In session.
Tho Stato Canncrs' Association will
havo Its annual meeting In Harrlsburg,
and will bo nddrcsscd by State ofllclals In
charge of labor laws and sanitation. Tho
6tato Industrial Board' will conduct a se
ries of hearings, starting December 4, on
standards of sanitation and safety In
eight or ten industries. Tho anthracite
mine lenders will hold n conference on
December 4 to outllno their program of

Ketchum Blake suffered a complete phys

"My feelings toward Doctor Blake," sho
said at her home today, "remain absc

actions may bo. As for his bride, the
former Mrs. Mackay, I can only wish
her all the unhapplness that is her just
due,
"All Is over now and there is nothing
for me to Bay. I wan forced to obtain a
divorce to protect my youngest son,
Francis Hnyes Blake, 2d. I wished to
make provision for his guardianship after
I am gone. However, I did hope that they
might wait a little while It would not
have been for long beforo doing this
thing.
"I hnve Buffered bo much that I had
hoped this last blow would be spared me.
I just feel beaten. I have always been
bitterly opposed to divorce. While I am
not a Catholic, moat of my family aro
Catholics. I am an Episcopalian, but the
idea of divorced persons remarrying dur
ing the lifetime of their former spouses
has seemed unspeakable to me. I never
could regard that sort of thing as mar
riage. "For years I have been nn Invalid with
heart trouble. During my last Illness,
which was critical, I was bound to put
aside my convictions for the sake of my
son's future.
"I cannot understand It all. I know
Doctor Blake loved his sons as much as
I do, but one woman's Influence was
enough to tako him miles away from
them and break up his home. I find It
Impossible to break a habit of 30 years.
I will always feel the same toward Doctor
Blake and will always regard him as my
husband."

HIGH SPEED TRANSIT
AND MODERN SERVICE
Will Voice Demands To

Residents of the northwestern port of
the city, ns well as those of other sec

At the request of various business men's
organizations, Director Tnylor, of the De

meeting and show the need of high-speed
lines through that neighborhood to the
centre of the city. People living in the

obliged to use tho Ridge avenue line and
other routes which compel them to tnke
a circuitous trip to the business section.
The high-speed line recommended by

able extent. This Is especially true of the
contemplated line from Roxborough,
which will pass through the northwestern
section via Henry avenue, nth street and
under the Parkway,
Tonight's meeting will be held under the
nusplceR of the Northwest Men's Associa
tion, West Susquehanna Avenue Business
Men's Association, and other organiza

VESSEL TO SAIL
FROM THIS PORT
Steamship Batiscan Will Dej
part Saturday With 8000
Tons of Food Others to
Follow.
A practical plan to save the war-op
pressed Belgians from sta'rvatlon has been
mapped out by the American Relief Com
mission in London, and the United States
In general, nnd Philadelphia in particu
lar, havo been called upon to spnre no
effort to bring this plan to a successful
consummation.
This, In brief, was the contents of a
communication received by Albert Cross,
managing director of the Child Federa
tion, from Linden V. Bates, chairman of
tho commlsslln's Now York ofllce, ad
vising him of tho arrival In this port to
day of tho Batiscan, nn enormous ship
capnblo of carrying 8000 tons of foods,
which it Is hoped will be stocked for ship
ment by next Saturday.
"If the Belgians are to be saved from
death by stnrvntlon," read this communi
cation, "It will bo necessary to send a
ship from some part of the United States
every day In the week throughout the
entire winter."
SECOND VESSEL COMINO.
To this end the entire country Is to be
divided Into Belgian relief zones, with
Philadelphia, New York, Baltimore, Gal
veston, New Orleans nnd San Francisco
ns the shipping points In these sones. Tho
American Relief Commission has negoti
ated for nit the ships needed for the
carrying on of this humane work, and the
Batiscan Is otto of tho first to nrrlve.
Following In her wnke the Verona will
como hero, probably on December 10, and
Philadelphia and the Philadelphia dis
trict, Including Pennsylvania, Delaware
and New Jersey, nre expected to provide
her cargo.
According to Mr. Cross, the commit
tee In chnrgo is tho Belgian Relief Fund,
of which C. C. Harrison Is tho secretary,
and not the committee of nowspnper pub
lishers, who backed tho sending of the
Thclma nnd tho Orn, chartered by John
Wanamnker.
"There Is scarcely a doubt that tho
Batiscan will sail on Saturdny," said Mr.
Cross, "because almost her entire cargo
will bo made up of the wheat Bent from
tho West and the flour donnted by the
millers of Minnesota, which has already
arrived here. In addition, the Belgian
Relief Commission hns on hnnd a Inrge
Btock of foodstuffs with which the vessel
will be filled, if thtre is not suftlclcnt
wheat.
CALL UPON GENEROUS.
The other ships will have to be filled
with food bought with the money con
tributed by generous citizens. Our fund
was considerably augmented by the pro
ceeds collected at the Penn-Cornell gamo,
to say nothing of the J0000 taken In at
Madame Vandervelde's meeting. We have
not yet received our share of the Army
nnd Navy proceeds, but this, of course,
will Increase tho amount In hnnd."
This afternoon a meeting will bo held
In the ofllce of Edward Bok. president of
the Child Federation, for the purpose of
devising means of providing cargoes for
the series of ships to come.
