0i but advised her to take tho matter up
with his secretary, nnd said that there

"troll hitters" at the close of his ser
mon last night than nt nny previous

Women nnd girls. There were 6D7 of them,
T-fclch added to the 102 of the afternoon,
brqitnhf the day's harvest of converts up
to WD.

"God has made provision for your sal
vation. If you go to hell It will be your
fault, not His. Don't forget that." Thh
Was "Billy" Sunday's wnrnlng tills alter
noon to the vast throng that crowded Into
the tabernacle to hear him proach his
famous sermon on "Teach I's to Tray."
The evangelist made It plain that most
persons who complain that their prayers
go unanswered, either are not right with
God themselves, or ore asking things
that they do not really need.
'TQ assure answers to your piajers,"
ho said, "It Is first essential that you gt
right with God yourself. You can't ex
pect blessings to come down upon you
when you say a little prayer without
thinking of what you are saying, while
your mind Is wandering about on how
to make money, on how to cheat your
brother, on how to wear better and more
stylish clothes than your sifters or while
dreaming over a night's brldge-whlst
party or with your head groggy with tho
fruits of a night's debauch.
"GET BIGHT WITH GOD."
"Get right with God. Place faith In
Him. Get down on your knoos and con
fess your sins and become n. true chl'd
of Jesus Christ. Humble yourrelt nnd
remember that God Is always good to
those who keep His commandments Tou
can't expect Him to answer your pray
ers when you break His commandments
every week day, even If you do dress
yourself up In fine duds and wear u long
face on Sunday while you occupy a choice
seat In a rented pew.
"Just you remember Ood will give you
everything you need. Get that? I said
need. 1 didn't say He'd glvo you every
thing you wanted. But In order to have
your needs supplied you must prove your
faith by your actions. You can't live
like the devil and then suddenly turn
aside for n few minutes' respite from
your sins and get God to believe you are
sincere."
In a stirring appeal Sunday asked that
the old-time family altar bo restored.
''Get your fumlly around you and let
them hear youj- voice lifted up to God in
appeal for them and your home. There
are lots of children going down tho rough
road to hell today because they were
never under the influence of the family
prayer. You shouldn't blame God for
not caring for your children If you don't
care enough for them yourselves to even
ask Him to protect them."
SUGGESTS PBAYER LIST.
The evangelist aroused the audience
to applause when ho fired his chnrges
of neglect and or sham Christian lives at
those who pray continually for themselves
and forget entirely all th needs of their
neighbors. He told them to make out a
prayer list and to ask God for help that
individuals might bo saved , and helped
through His power.
Instead of finding fault with your
neighbors and telling everybody all the
bad things you know and loads you
Imagine about them, forgive them your
self and ask God to help them. Don't be
a, Jabbering, old fault-Under and busy
body." Among the prominent guests In the
tabernacle this afternoon were Colonel
William C. Beecher, Bon of Henry Ward
Beechor; Deacon Emerson, and the Itov.
Dr. W. L. Tenney, all of the Plymouth
Church. Brooklyn, N. Y. They will also
attend the evening services.

WITNESS STAND IN
SAN DOMINGO CASE
Every One Accused of
rroht-sharing m Con
tracts Will Have Chance
to Testify, Says Phelan.
NEW YORK, Jan. 21 Testimony that
has brought the names of prominent men.
notably Secretary of State Uryan, Into the
San DomiiiKo Inquiry, has made It neces
sary that tho Investigation's scope be
widened.
Senntor-elect James D. Phelan. of Cali
fornia, who Is hearing testimony on the
charges brought by W. W. Vlclt ngalnat
Minister James 31. Sullivan, snld today
he intended that every one whose nanio
had been mentioned should havo full op
portunity to be heaid.
Former Governor Martin II. Glynn has
already llatly denied the charso made
by M. E. Davis, a contractor, thnt he was
to participate in profits whljn William C.
Beer, named as Sullivan's sponsor, said
he expected to make In public work con
tracts with the Dominican Government.
Beer today made tho following statement:
"Tho kindest interpretation that can be
placed on testimony given by Mr. Davis
yesterday Is that he mistook the meanliu:
of the woid 'interested ' Governor Glynn
has not had any Interest whatecr, pres
ent or contemplated, In San Domlngn
as far bb I know.
"Representative James A. Hnmlll, of
New Jersey, has not had nny Interest In
San Domingo.
"It Is a matter of common knowledge
In this city that certain Jealous Demo
cratic politicians are trying to drive Mr.
Bryan out of the Cabinet."
Iu his testimony DrvIb declaied that
he had been asked by Ilcor to Interest
himself In contracts In Fan Domingo. He
said that Beer had told him that the
Dominican Government expected to spend
J6.000.00fl on public works and thnt "there
would be big profits In it." Beer, lie
said, told him that he had had Sullivan
made Minister and that "ho wa3 all
right"
Ho also uuoted Beer as saying that
Secretary Bryan, Governor Glynn and
others of his business associates were
"Interested." On cross-examination K
said that the farther he got away from
Beer's statements the less he considered
them entirely truthful.
"Mr. Beer sold that my associates who
will have to share in all the profits from
these contracts are Mr. Glynn. Mr. Hain
III, a gentleman in Delaware and a per
son In Washington of no less Importance"
thnn the Secretary of State." This wan
the sworn statement of Davis.
The testimony of Davis yesterday
caused a flutter In the room at the Wal
dorf, where the hearing Is being held.
Senator Phelan looked at the witness In
blank amazement, nnd Attorney Strong,
counsel for the Federal Commission on
Industrial Relations, Investigating the
charges, leaped to his feet.
He cautioned Davis that he was the
first witness to cast any reflection on Sec
retary Bryan, and asked him to repeat
his assertion,-
Davis replied with some heat: '
"Kverything that Mr. Beer said to me
bore considerable weight with mo because
I believed him to be a responsible man.
He said his associates would share In any
attorney's fees or profits that resulted
from the contracts. As near as I can re
call they were Mr. Glynn, Mr. Hamlll, a
gentleman in Delaware, another In Rich
mond and a person who was described to
me as no less a person than the Secretary
of State."
BRYAN WON'T REPLY TILL
HE HAS BEAD THE TESTIMONY
WASHINGTON, Jan, ;i.-Secretary of
State Rryan last night stood under a
chandelier In the drawing room of his
Calumet Placo residence and carefully
read M. K. Davis' statement to the effect
that "W. C, Beer had stated that he
(Bryan) "was to get a slice of the rake-off
on San Domingo contracts. Mr. Bryan
slowly rolled up the telegram. Then he
said;
"I want to see the testimony before I
make any comment,"
Mr, Bryan appeared to be ou the point
of saying something, but apparently
changed hla mind, and led the way to his
front door, which he opened.
"You may say," he remarked, "that
when the testimony Is all In, and when I
have an opportunity of going over It, 1
will inakejiny comment that I deem nec
essary. Good night."
Then Mr. Bryan closed the door,

SECOND VICTIM OF STRIKE
SHOOTING DIES IN HOSPITAL
Worker Killed by "Deputies" Suc
cumbs to Wounds.
ROOSKVEIT, N. j., jan. 2i.-The sec
ond death among the strikers of (he
American Agricultural Company who
were shot down by special deputy sheriffs
on Tuesday, occurred at Alexlan Broth
ers' Hospital In Newark today. The vic
tim was Carman Patty, who was shot in
the back and abdomen. News of his
death created wild excitement among
the families of the strikers here.
It Is generally believed here that the 22
"deputy sheriffs" who surrendered to the"
authorities on tho charge of having
slaughtered striking employes ot Williams
& Clark and Lieblg & Co., are not the real
men who did the shooting. All of the men
arraigned, now out on $2,000 ball each,
which was promptly furnished by a
surety company, are men of yery good
appearance, calculated to create a favor
able impresslpn, It ts said that t''ey were
brought forth in place of the alleged Kast
Side gunmen from New York. District
Attorney Florence, of Middlesex County,
however, is positive that the right men
are In custody and says that he does not
expect any more arrests. The case is to
go to the Grand Jury next week.
Agents of the Federal Commission on
Industrial Relations, and State and Mid
dlesex County authorities are also con
ducting investigations. Meyer London,
the Socialist Congressman-elect of New
York, has been asked to take the strik
ers' case, and has promised to lend hla
aid, although not admitted to practice at
the bar of this State. He haa sent pna
of his representatives to assist In shaping
the workers' plans. State Senator Charles
M. Egan has promised an Investigation by
the Legislature.

The test was begun early this morning.
Representatives of the competing manu

Four hundred pound:, of pressure was
pumped Into the hose. In order to give
It every posslblo test as to stretching

hose held up lieuutllully and the fear
of a possible break was over when sud

A hasty exit of plllcials, experts and

Mr Itohltiette snld conditions In the

"There nre no long-winded arguments
In 'Vour Girl and Mine,' " Bays Mrs. Mc

suftrage parade. But It Is packed with
thrills and nctlon, which serve even bet
ter we think, to carry our message.'
There Is not too much sulfrago In the
plav, but what little there Is la In a
highly concentrated form, to wit, In the
pcisoti Of Dr. Anna Howard Shaw, who
makes a bilcf surfinge speech. The movie

"FATTEST" MAN EVER HELD
A VERITABLE FOOD STORE
Ham, Pigs' Noses, Mackerel nnd
Other Things Found on Hhn.
"t Is strictly against the law to bu
found starving to death."
Thus spoke William Blown today, when
arraigned before Magistrate Coward at
tho !d and Cluistlan stieets police station,
accused of larceny.
Brown, according to Special Policeman
Whalen, Is the fattest prisoner ever nr
lcstod In that nelghboihood, yet ho de
clared that he was starving. In hcarcli
ltig lit own, Whnlon had to tnke off his
two ovei coats, four sack coats, four
vests, tluee sMiti, and then the police
man dlscovcied why the prisoner was so
fat.
Hanging around his neck was a big
ham. His clothes were put 011 over the
ham, and If he hnd not been hi rested
Brown would have enjoyed a big feast to
day, for he alio hod a box of matches
and .1 penknife. Hut that was not nil.
Hcposlns secretly In his back pocket
wns a fat mackerel.
But his treasures did not end there.
A basket full of pigs' noses was found
on Brown's left aim when he was ni
icUed. The prisoner said he "found" tl"
noses In front of the stoic of Snlus &
Co., 15th and South streets. Morris Sit
vcrstcln, an employe, said he saw Urown
take them away. He. told a policeman.
As a result Brown will have to eat pris
on faro, minus ham. mackerel and pigs'
noses, for SO day.s.

LOWER TAXI RATES, PLAN
OF INDEPENDANT DRIVERS
Ordinance Also Provides for Better
Service and Public Stands.
Decided rcductlonj In rates, safety to
the riding public and a taxlcab service
second to none In the country are to be
outlined In nn ordinance which Is expect
ed to bo Introduced In Councils today on
behalf of the Independent, drivers of Phila
delphia Tho establishment of public
cab stands, regulation of the traffic by
the Department of Public Safety and a
plan to bring tho machines Into mare
popular use by putting the business on
a semi-public service basis, are the chief
alms of the project.
Those who nre Interested In the meas
ure assert that lack of proper regulation
in the past has resulted In the Invasion
of the field by a group of unscrupulous
chauffeurs who have not hesitated to
overcharge. In some Instances, It Is
pointed out, drivers have gone to the ex
tent of robbing their "fares."
Although tho plans have been sponsored
by Interests said to favor a chance for1
Independent operators, Claude S. Jarvls,
general manager of the Quaker City Cab
Company, favors tho proposed measure
to Improve conditions here. He declared
today It was the first aim of the com
pany of which he la vice president to
protect its passengers, nnd that a large
Insurance premium, amounting to more
than J20.CO0 annually, was carried for this
purpose.

light In the 2d and Christian street police
station today by the arrest of Arthur
Catuna. of 7t!i and Fltzwator streets, nnd
Frank "Vetl, of 823 Fltzwater street.
Both men loved Julia Hacaukl, of 633
South street. According to the police,
they were fighting about her at 7th and
Balnbrldge streets when both were ar
rested, Catuna, who Is said to be an
actor, was denouncing Vetl In dramatic
terms, and declared that his rival had a
wife and five children.
Ah If waiting for this denunciation, airs.
Vetl suddenly appeared with some of the
little ones and declared, between sobs,
that It was so. Magistrate Coward gave
Vetl the alternative of paying' a 112.50
fine or going to Jail. V'hlle Vetl was
looking repentant, his wife, to the pniaze
ment of all present, came forward and
paid, the fine. Husband and Wife left
arm In arm and Catuna, like a real hero,
went foftH to claim the hand of Julia
who was waiting nearby.
