Tense Situation at Randal Morgan's
Estate Relieved by Explanation.
A bullseye lantern moving cautiously
nmong tho trees on Randal Morgnn's
beautiful cstato In East Willow Grove
avenue, Germantown, was seen by a terror-stricken
neighbor, and In n few
moments she telephoned the police that
burglars were about to rob the residence.
Llko a flash cons on wheels, cons on
horseback and cops afoot wero rushed to
the Morgan homo. Motorcycle Policeman
Grover saw tho mysterious light and then
pulled out his own flashlight. Half a
dozen cops did the same. Soon tho woods
were twinkling, and as It was hard to
tell the difference between tho light of
a burglar nnd that of a cop tho police
men suspected each other frequently ns
they dodged about the trees. Finally
Grover saw a man with a light who
wasn't a cop.
"Throw up your hands," he shouted.
"You're foolish, I got you covered with
a gun," said the man.
"Who are you?" demanded Grover.

The traveling city, which every circus
Is, wns tho ono nvenuo of escape left
open to Joseph Hand, accused of mur
dering Mrs. Julia Hellner In Brooklyn
last Friday. So ho Joined the circus; but
the detectives who nre on hln trail, by
the same process of reasoning, tracked
tho man to tho big tent nt 19th sticet
and Hunting Park avenue, and his ar
lest Is now only a matter of time.
He hnd obtnlned work ns a circus cook
nnd was to Join the show in Trenton
next Monday.
Hanel has been seaman, steward and
cook, but on land tho only work ho In
competent of doing is cooking. So when
Detective noddy, of Now York, Btarted
on his search for the slayer he got tho
police of many cities to lcnrn the Identity
of every man who had this week sought
work as a cook.
Hut Hanel wns too shrewd to fall Into
this obvious trap. His eecnpe by sea cut
oft, unable to leave for tho West on the
closely watched trains, It occurred to him
to get a Job In the onn rltv ihn mn,..,
nbout the circus.
So when Hoddy carried n photograph
of Hanel to the man who hired tho cook
nt the circus grounds in this city on
Thursday, It was Identified at once as a
likenesH of the murderer. Ttnn.i hntf.
over, had been unwilling to go to work
jit once. He said ho would Join the show
in Trenton, and It waj arranged that he
should start work In that city next Mon
day. Hoddy has been In this city since last
Tuesday, when ho brought Miss Helen
Buck, the murdered woman's companion,
hero to Identify snmo Jowelry that Hanel
had pawned. Tho motlvo of the murder
w (is theft, and the former sailor got away
with a large number of valuable gems.
It Is considered possible that Hanel will
wo v.ijiurea lonay.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
The Photoplay Editor of the Evenlnp
Ledfjtrwlllbe pleased to answer ques.
tlons relatlno his department.
Questions relating to family affairs of
setori and aetreases are barred bso

Queries will not be answered by

to Photoplay Editor, Evening Ledger.
Here are some more motion pletuns
statistics furnished by J. Stuart BlacK
ton of the Vitagraph Company
I linvo been asked to give some sta
tistics of the motion picture business,
nnd the figures I quote arc for 191S.
During that tlmo there was $20,000,000
paid by tho film exchanges, tho whole
sale distributor, to the manufacturer.
Tho theatres paid $25,000,000 for rental
of tho film and tho public paid $276,
000,000 for admission to the various
theatres. This means nn average of
11,000,000 pereons attended the thea
tre dally to see the moving pictures.
Durlnir the same tlmo manufacturers
hnd tied up in the business $25,000,000
nnd nbout $50,000,000 worth of feature
films unrelcascd.
Featuro films that provide a full
evening's entertainment cost from $18,
OOOto $30,000 apiece. As an example,
It cost $21,000 to produce "The Chris
tian," adapted from Hall Calne's book
of the same name. This did not In
cludo Mr. Calne's royalties, which have
thus far amounted to more than $20,
000. Mr. Blackton asserted that over
$110,000,000 was Invented In moving pic
ture thentrcs. During 1313 there wero
mado 10,000 miles of moving pictures,
or enough to go around the world nnd
to provide 32 tintypes for every citizen
of the United States.
There Is no doubt that the moving
pictures have done a. lot of harm to
the legitimate stage. Then again,
times nre hard and pictures nre cheap.
Then again the public Is tired of
listening to actors who do not know
their lines The public too has shown
a preference to pictures for hlgh-

The Philadelphia Electric Company has
agreed to instal 650 modern high-power
electric lamps on ornamental metnlllc
poles or a design, npproved by the Art

negotiations with the company. Mayor
Blankenburg signed tho ordinance, passed
by Councils for 1000 new electric lamps,
Immediately after the concession wns

Director Cooko has written Senator
Vare asking him to use his Influence to
have the bills passed in legislature that
would give Philadelphia the right to let
five-year contracts for lighting, telephone
Bervlce, garbage removal, ash collection
nnd street cleaning. He malntnlns that
such a measure would bring competition.
