S WASHINGTON, Jan. 13 Tho German

El preislon of Its attitude on the matter of
PAnnrlcan legislation designed to prohibit
Rtt exportation of arms from this coun
try to the European Allies, according to
tenons in cioso toucn wim1 mo uermnn

' This refusal of the Gorman Government
b commit Itself, It Is believed, was con
Teyed to Representative Bartholdt, of
lllssourl, and Vollmcr, of Iowa, who con
ferrea with German Ambassador von
Bernstorff.
"Tn the opinion of those who are In close
ranch with the situation. It would bo ln-
peoiulstent for Germany to voice any oppo
sition to any American shipment of arms
mM the Allies, Inasmuch as this practice

CITY COAL BILL CUT $70,000
Price to Be Paid in Current Year
Shows Material Shrinkage. v
Seventy thousand extra dollars will
tinkle In the City Treasury because of the
foresight of tho administration In pre
paring Its conl specifications for tho cur
rent year. Director Loeb estimates. The
avcrnge bids fdr each class of coal wero
slightly lower than those of last year
and tho specifications nlso provide that
tho city shall have the benefit of tho lower
freight rate schedulo fixed by tho Public
Service Commission. This lower schedule
goes Into effect January 18
If the same quantity of coal la used by
the city as was used In 1914 tho nctual
saving to the city. Director Loeb thinks,
will be about $60,000, while a further
saving of $10,000, he estimates, will be
made under the lower prices asked by
bidders to whom the contracts have been
awarded. Roughly, It Is estimated that
prices average about 1 per cent, lower
than last year.

PLANS TO QUESTION
JOHNSON CONTRACT
Continued from Faxo One
further delay In the beginning of work
on the badly needed reconstruction at
the West Philadelphia Institution. At the
last meeting of Councils a blanket ap
propriation of virtually the entire $11.
300,000 loan wns made, the only exceptions
being the $1,000,000 for Blockley and $400,000
for tho Municipal Court. Sufficient land
has not yet been obtained for the latter
project.
Councils gave ns Its reason for not ap
propriating for Blockley the so-called con
troversy between the Department of Pub
lic Works and the Department of Health
and Charities. Whatever controversy
there wns has been eliminated by tho
resignation of Director Hnrte, It Is said,
and Councils now will bo called on to
appropriate for Blockley or admit that
It is deliberately trying to hold up tho
project
AGAINST JOHNSON CONTRACT.
Action ngnlnst the Johnson contract Is
now looked upon as a certainty, regard
less of how the money1 Is npproprlated.
Tho procedure. It Is understood, will bo
for tho Director to whoso department
the $1,000,000 Is appropriated to declare
tho Johnson contract abrogated and nd
ve'rtlse for competitive bids from archi
tects. It then will be up to Johnson to carry
tho matter Into tho courts, halt the work
on Blockloy by Injunction and attempt
to provo tho legality of his contract.
Provlous decisions In hla fnvor, It Is
pointed out now, are by lower courts
This Is taken to indicate that the mattel
will bo carried to the Supreme Court on
Its merits. Tho feeling among thoso who
opposo tho Johnson contract Is that tho
previous decisions have hot been final
and have not been based on considera
tion of tho whole contract.
COOKE JtcFUSES TO COMMENT,
Director Cooko refused today to fnak4
any (comment on a statement Issued by
Dr. Richard II. Hnrte, former Director of
the Department of Health and Charities,
In which the ex-Director asserted that
when he attempted to bring up for discus
slon at a meeting of the Mayor's Cabinet
the matter of Philip II. Johnson's perpet
ual architectural contract with the Health
Department only vilification of the archi
tect wns elicited from the Mayor and
Director Cooke.
FRICTION WITH WILSON PERSONAL.
"The attempt on tho part of tho Mayor
nnd Director Cooko to vilify the archi
tect In question," oo declared by Doctor
Harte, was doubtlessly along the line ex
pressed by Director Cooke In his annual
report, where he saldt "For the archl
tccturo of the city to each a very high
lovel Is Impossible so long as Philip It,
Johnson Is continued ns tho principal con
sulting architect" That opinion Is known
to be similar to tho one held by the
Mayor on tho Johnson "perpetual con
tract" obtained by Organization power
during the Ashbrldge Administration In
1903.
Doctor Harto in his statement declares
that his friction with Alexander M. Wil
son, Assistant Dlroctor of tho Health De
partment, was puroly a personal matter
and that the real difficulty arose over
Johnson. The contract of Johnson would
yield him $300,000 In tho $6,000,000 recon
struction of Blockley planned by Doctor
Harte.
