Seven great sates In a lone white fence
swung back this morning and. a crowd
serged, through them into tho grounds and
roundabout the exhibits. The only county
fair In the limits ot the third biggest
.city In the United States opened with a
rush. There was no doubt about Its suc
cess from the moment .Impatient crowds
of late vacation takers and farmers curi
ous to view the products ot competitors
swarmed through the ,gates and passed
the small army ot peanut, popcorn,
candy, soda and cigar venders who were
watting Inside.
Business for the popcorn sellers and
every other concession inside the gates
Will hum all this week; The fair closes
ijonday, September 6. The -final day, ac
cording to the management, will draw the
biggest crowd tho Philadelphia county
fair has ever known.
One of the innovations welcomed by
fair fans this year was the opening ot tho
fair .on the first day of September, Instead
of holding it over Until the 6th or 7th.
Thereby tho association members figured
their patrons were assured of reasonably
warm and pleasant 'weather, with rione of
the discomforts of early autumn changes
In the temperature.
MANY FINE EXHIBITS
Long sheds, tents, booths and the open
grass were crowded v with, exhibits from
the choicest of Bucks and Montgomery
county forms when the fair opened this
morning. The places or honor at most
exhibitions had been given to products
of Philadelphia county farms, but with
real estate booming and the rapid devel
opment of suburban territory, the quan
tity of produce grown within the city
limits) was noticeably, smaller than last
year.
Philadelphia county' form owners carry
the b.esj. yield from their lands in their
pockets in the form of bank deposits,
they Were explaining to out-of-town
farmers who asked why Philadelphia
county produce figured so .slightly In tho
exhibition sheds. The coming of new
"L," lines, real estate subdlvlders and
buyers of acreage for building operations
had taken much of their land, one rural
land owner explained. But crops of dol
lars were as profitable as the best Bucks
county cabbages, .
Special trains on the Beading, street
cars and tho Northeast boulevard, con
necting with Broad street and downtown
Philadelphia will be used all day to bring
more visitors to the fair. Most of the
morning visitors from the city came by
the railroad, but the afternoon arrivals
are expected to take advantage of the
well-paved boulevard and the speed of the
gasoline motor.
A COSMOPOLITAN OnOUP.
A most cosmopolitan group of vehicles
clustered about the gates of the fair.
Limousines and high-powered touring
cars stood In Jlnes with faded chassis
from the byroads of Bucks county. Heavy
draft horses were Jn the shafts andmules
kicked their heels beside gray enamel
hoods covering forty and more horse
power. The mules and draft horses were
driven In during tho early hours by farm
ers. They'took. the fair seriously enough
and spent their time near the farm prod
ucts sheds.
Ono of the new features this year is a
parcel post exhibit, under the auspices
of the Postofflce Department, at which
samples qf farm produce as well us gen
eral merchandise are shown Packed ready
for mailing, together with theomounts
pf postage- necessary to send the same
to different points. A temporary pobtal
station ,for the, sale of stamps, etc., and
the receipt and delivery of parcel post
, matter will bo in operation until Sep
tember 7. and exhibitors may send their
exhibit to or from the fair by parcel
post," r
Special police protection has been ar
ranged by Captain William TklcFadden
and Lieutenant Jolly, of the 27th District,
at Tacony, for the people as well as tho
exhibits. Ample nro protection has also
been provided, by the Department of Pub
lic Safety by the erection of a firehouse
on the grounds.

ETfrNING-
DECISION ON JITNEY
APPEAL RESHtVED
AFTER HOT ARGUMENT
Judge Ferguson Hears Pleas of
Lawyers ntid Says Time Is
Necessary to Reach
Conclusion
LIVELY TIME IN COURT
City Solicitor Criticises Ordinanco
While Opposing
Petitioners '
Judge Ferguson announced this after
noon In Common Picas Court No. b he
would reserve decision on the Injunction
proceedings filed by the Jlincymen to re
strain enforcement of tho Jitney ordinance
passed by Councils. Lawyers represent
ing the Jltneymen had argued their case
beforo him for more than two hours, but
tho Judgo declared that he needed time
to look up some of the cases cited by tho
attorneys In their arguments.
Harry M. Berkowltz and Harry Shapiro
represented tho Union Motor Bus Com
pany nt the hearing. Michael Francis
Doyle appeared as counsel for the South
Philadelphia Jitney Owners' Association
and the Philadelphia Jitney Association.
.Tho city-was represented by City Solic
itor Byan, who, while defending tho city's
case In tho matter, criticised Mayor
Blnnkenburg for not vetoing the ordi
nance of Councils.
"Tho ordinance should never have been
signed," h said. The City Solicitor de
clared that better surface transit facilities
were needed In Philadelphia, and that tho
Jitney was a means of partly solving the
problem, but proper regulation of them
was a necessity. Ho defended the J2300
bond, nnd pointed out that other cities
hnd demanded higher sums from their
Jitney drivers. San Francisco, ho said,
had a bond of $10,000 and Memphis, Tenn.,
$5000.
lawveiis nxqiTifo.
The three lawyers presented the argu
ments -of their clients vehemently, and
frequently It was necessary to call for
order when all of them tried to talk at
once. The attorneys said Irreparable
damage was being done the Jltneymen;
that many of them had been robbed of all
means of support, and that If action was
delayed many of them may nnd them
selves In tho "down and out" class.
Thcso arguments were put forward in
answer to a remark made by Judge Fer
guson, at tho beginning of the hearing,
that If he had known at the time the
bill in equity was filed that Judge Sulz
berger had granted a preliminary injunc
lion to bo effective until September' 20
he would not have, consented to a hear
ing. The Jltneymen were unable to fllo
the bond required as evidence of good
faith, and the Injunction, with the ex
ception of the clause providing zone regu
lation, lapsed.
The lawyers Informed Judge Ferguson
that 'tho applicants for tho Injunction In
that case were an entirely different set of
men than their clients,- and that the ap
proach of cold weather made it imperativo
now that action be taken before the Jit
ney season was over.
DISCRIMINATION ALLEGED.
The Jltneymen argue that tho ordinance
la discriminatory. Inasmuch as no bond It
required from owners of other public
vehicles,- such aa tho taxlcabs, which get
muih higher prices for transportation
than the Jitneys. They say that In pass
ing the measuro Councils exceeded the
authority given to them by the passago
of the Jitney bill by the Legislature.
It was brought out by City Solicitor
Ryan during tho hearing that only 15
Jltneymen have filed, bonds, although 16
applications have been filed.

WOMAN AT PRAYER ROBBED
Worshiper in Gesu Church Victim of
Pious Thief, According to
Police
Piety was used as a cloak by 1Irs. Mary
Connors, of 15th and Cabot streets, the
police say, and she was arrested today
on a- charge of stealing money from Mrs.
Mary Foley while the latter was wor
shiping In the Church ot the Gesu, 18th
and Stiles streets.
Mrs. Foley was kneeling In prayer, and
left her handbag In the pew nearby. Tak
ing advantage of her devotion, it is said,
Mrs. Connors picked up tho bag, and
after taking out a turn of money, quickly
left the church. Mrs. Margaret Fltz
patrick, who was In another pew, wit
nessed the theft nnd followed Mrs. Con
nors to the street. Sho complained to a
special policeman, and the Connors
woman was taken to the 28th and Oxford
streets polico station.
Magistrate Morris denounced the woman
and said that she was tho most despic
able thief brought beforo him In a long
time. She was held in $100 ball for a
further hearing.
Numerous complaints have been made
by women who have been robbed In
churches In the northwestern part of the
city in the course of tho last few weeks.
Lurid melodramatic motion pictures Il
lustrating the latest successful methods
of burglary nre believed by the police
to have been responsible for an alleged
robbery of the home of Mrs. Tlllle Cohen.
200 Pino treet, by two children, Sam
Trotlnsky, y years old, of 203 Pino street,
and Sophie Lavlnsky, 10 years old, of
210 Pino street. Tho children will be
given a hearing today. According to Mrs.
Cohen, the children entered her home dur
ing her absence- yesterday by climbing
over the rear roof. Silverware and U In
cash were taken. The children were ent
to the House of Detention after an In
vestigation convinced the polico that they
were Implicated In tho alleged robbery.
They seemed delighted with their arrest,
but refused to admit they took anything
from the house.
Thieves entered the house of S. Stock
ton Zelley, of 6GM McCollum street, and
ransacked It last night. They forced
their way In by breaking a panel In a
door In the rear of tho house. Mr. Zelley,
who Is the proprietor of a gents' fur
nishing store on 11th street below Chest
nut, Is nt the seashore with his family.
Because so many of the Germantown
residents are out of the city thieves have
found the field a fertile one, and the po
ller havo been powerless to check their
raids,
Two automobiles were wrecked and the
occupants of one had a narrow escape
from death In a collision early today at
10th and Diamond streets. A large tour
ing car driven by Alfred II. Muller, of

Great Campaign Sign Will Be
Unfurled to Wave Until

Guy do Maupassant's far-famed "Pleco
ot String" nnd nil that it entailed may
pass Into tho background, as far as ef
fects nro concerned, when a thin piece of
golden rope, pulled taut by tho wrist of
a woman, tonight will launch forth nn
appeal for the suffrago cause which,
vlthln tho next eight weeks, will be seen
and read by thousands of persons.
Tho large suffrage banner, a campaign
banner In every sense of the word, will
be stretched across Broad street, near
Ituscomb street, at 8:30 this evening. Tho
necessary permission from City Hall and
property owners has been obtained, and
tho banner will be allowed to sway In
tho breezes until election day. Five words
tell tho banner's story. It Is Inscribed:
"Voto for Woman Suffrage, November
2d."
The arrangements are In tho hands of
Mrs. Wolstan Dlxcy. of 6221 North Broad
street, vice chairman of the committee
of tho 42d Wnrd. While bands play tho
"Star-Spangled Banner," Mrs. Dlxey will
raise the banner to Its prominent Dlace.
Inspiring music and speeches and light
ing displays will be some of the features
of the occasion. George C. Small, of tho
Cnmnaicrn CnmmtttM nf thn pAnMi.t.it.n.
nla Men's League for Woman Suffrage,'
vii do master ot ceremonies; Paul Hanna
will make the banner-raising speech.
The list of speakers Includes Mrs. Wll
nam Albert Wood, who was grand mar
shal of thclast suffrage- parade; Miss Es
telle Russel, and Mips Jane Mycr, said to
bo one of tho suffrage beauties of Phila
delphia. '
Mrs. Dlxey will be assisted by the fol
lowing committee: Mrs. William B.
Christine, Mrs. Harry Perkins. Mrs.
C. Warren Heller, Dr. M. M. Sabine.
Mrs. William H. Baker. Mrs. A. J.

W. Mcllhenny. Mrs. William C. Tongue,
Miss Evelyn Pike, Mrs. Harold Shall

Mrs. H. M, James and Mrs. Victor Goetz.
Tha banner Is more than 30 feet long
and nine feet wide. It is painted yellow
and black. It will be the first woman
suffrago banner ever stretched across a
street In Philadelphia. Swaying to and
fro, Just high enough not to interfere
with traffic regulations, it can be read for
blocks up and down Broad street. Suf
fragists believe It will reach more per
sons,, perhaps, than any other sign they
have ever had.
The banner Is the first qf a series which
suffrage workers hope to place In prom
inent positions In streets throughout many
sections of the city. It is planned to have
one In each election district In the city.
Arangement are being made to stretch
similar banners across Chestnut street,
near tho headquarters of the Woman Suf
frage party, at 1723. Another banner will
bo hung to wave a petition for tho cause
on Chelten avenue, In .Germantown.
