TarahUh U depending upon victory to enter Columbia University la the u-tumn. A meeting to decide whether, to appeal to tho city health authorities for an In vestlgatton of conditions at tho Phlpps Institute will bo held tomorrow by the eight nurses who have been expelled from tho University Hospital because they refused to serve two months nt the Institution, which Is confined to the treat ment of consumptives. Miss Helen Noel, one of tho nurses who refused absolutely to go down to Phlpps Instltuto when sue was assigned thero by tho University Hospital, said today that an Investigation would In oil probability bo taken up. "Thero Is a law against persons afflicted with tuberculosis being employed In factories," she said, "ana I should think that In a hospital tho precaution would bo alt the more exercised, but It Is a known fact that tho majority of the nurses at Phlpps are consumptives themselves. Tho cook Is n consumptive, and when wo are there wo aro obliged to eat the food prepared by ner. in audition, wo all eat from tne samo dishes. At tho University Hospital, which to my mind Is tho finest hospital In the city, tho tubercular patients have separate dishes. These aro sterilized after tho meals. But at Phlpps tho patients and nurses eat from tho samo dishes and they aro not sterilized. "Miss Smith, our superintendent, must havo known tho conditions woro not ex actly as they should be, for the night when we were ordered to Phlpps or to leave, and decided to lenve because of the conditions, sho asked us to consider It carefully boforo we took such action, ns sho said that It would mako a big scandal In the newspapers. Sho nlso said that everybody would bo Investigating, nnd oven tho State might step In nnd take a hand. "Thero Is not the slightest possibility of our ever being reinstated at the Uni versity Hospital, and I nm sorry, because I loved the work, my superiors treated mo with every consideration and every thing went splendidly until tho other night when wo got tho order to go to Phlpps. I would novcr say a word against tho University Hospital; It la a wonderful Institution and I appreciate the IB months' training that I received there. "The Board of Directors of the College wrote us a letter In which they assured us that an investigation woutd be made, and I am confident that conditions down there will bo remedied, but the hospital authorities wanted us to go down whllo the Investigation was being made, nnd before anything was done to better the conditions." Miss Noel, who lives with her mother, at 3223 Chestnut street, also said the nurses who were striking in sympathy with her, Miss Grace Dawson, of New Jersey, nnd Miss Mary Rhodes, of Holldaysburg, Pa., Intended to slick by them. It did not look aa If thero would be any agreement reached at all, sho said. THREE HURT IN AUTO CRASH Man Hurled Over "Wind Shield When Car Hits Bridge Abutment.

Thirteen liquor sta.blUhments In Phila delphia automatically went out of busi ness today becauso ot tljelr failure to pay license fees to the City Treasurer by mid night last night, when the time limit al lowed by the court for tno payment of license fees expired. Twelve liquor deal ers, who made last-hour payments yes terday, may lose their licenses. They paid with uncertified checks, which, un der the law, cannot bo accepted. City Treasurer McCoach said today that liquor dealers throughout the city have been unusually tardy this year In paying their llcenso fees. In order to givo every chance to those that had de layed slnco March, when their licenses were granted, the ofTlco of the City Treas urer was kept opsn all day yesterday and until midnight In spite of tho fact that It was a holiday. During the day 20 paid, but of these 12 failed to uso certified ohecks. offer ing tho excuso that they could not get their checks certified on a holiday. After pledging them to present certified checks today, tho City Treasurer promised to take their cases under consideration. The status of these, evon though they should present the proper checks today, Is much In doubt.

Of these seven wero saloons; four, whole sale liquor establishments; one, a bottling establishment; nnd ono n brewery. Tho llcenso fees for theso places are: retail establishments, $1103.75; wholesale estab lishments, $1000; bottling works, (S0O, and breweries, a pro rata fee depending upon tho production. Tho fight for local option waged by Oovornor Brumbaugh, the wave of antl llquor sentiment sweeping over the coun try and the money stringency aro cited ns the cnusea for tho closing of tho liquor places. Many of the saloon men believe a local option measure will pass the next Legislature and many other feel that prohibition Is Impending. Their reason for closing at this time Is said to be that they may have time to establish them selves In other lines of business before belnK forced out. The Mnreh License Court In this city granted 1421 wholesale licenses, 403 retail licenses, iS bottling license and 33 li censes for breweries. The City Treasurer today refused to make publlo the names of the places that would be closed for non-payment of license fees.
