STOLE FROM BLIND WOMAN
Magistrate Severely Upbraids Con
fessed Thief
There is plenty of tlmo today for Louis
Connelly. 19 years old, of Ollvo street
nbovo 49th street, to rumlnato on the
propriety of stealing from a blind woman.
He is behind tho bars In Moyamenslng
Trlson, held under 40O ball for court.
"I have had some mean thieves In my
time as Magistrate, but you are ono of
the meanest," Moglatrato Uoylo told Con
nelly, when ho was nrrnlgned In the 3th
street and Lancaster avenuo station to
day. ,
Connelly was a helper on a delivery
wagon of a second-hand furniture stdro
on Lancaster avenue, near 39th street.
Several days ago Mrs. Anna Dumslde
bought a bed and had It sent to her homo,
at 3743 Written street, West Philadelphia.
Tho drawer of a bureau was open. In
It Connelly saw a gold wntch and chain.
While talking to Mrs. Burnslde he took
the watch nnd chain from the drawer
and placod It In his pocket
CARRANZA TO DEMAND
RECOGNITION ON BASIS
OF A. B. C. PROTOCOL
Complete Military and Diplo
matic Triumph of Constitu
tionalists Certain Villa's,
Army Routed
MARCH ON JUAREZ BEGUN
WASHINGTON, Sept. 13. With tho
Vlllu armv in full retreat Into Sonora
and tho advance of at least three Con
stitutionalist armies upon Juarez begun,
Stato Department ofllclals admitted to
day that tho time of the collapse of tho
Convention party In Moxlco was at hand.
Recognition of Carranza'B government as
tho de facto government of tho entire re
public Is now -i matter merely of routlno
discussion, formal pledges of protection
of foreign Interests and ofllclnl pro
nouncement It wns revealed today that General Car
ranza has decided to stand upon tho
terms of tho protocol signed by tho rep
resentatives of thq United States, Argen
tina, Chill and Brazil at Niagara Falls
in 1914.
That protocol declared that tho signa
tory Powors chould rccognl70 a govern
ment to bo established In Mexico as tho
result of tho decision of 'the Mexican peo
ple themselves, and that there should bo
required of this Government by tho out
side Powers only the protection of foreign
lives and property within the republic
nnd tho creation of commissions for the
settlement of claims for damages sus
tained by foreigners in Mexico.
Unless the "First Chief" .shall recede
from this position ho will probably point
out to the Stato Department that it
stands bound by the protocol to recognize
his government under those conditions.
This attitude will probably be assumed in
a letter couched in friendly language,
which will accompany a legal brief and
a statement of evidence of, the actual
military and civil control gained by Car
ranza up to October 1.

"The foolishness of politics" was the
subject of an address delivered by Tom
Foley to an appreciative audience at
Frankford avenue and York street. Al
though Tom spoke from the top of a gar
bage barrel, this did not affect his en

homo with vigor and stamped his feet
when he .spoke of the mismanagement of
the city and country.
Unfortunately, the barrel was not
strong, at least as to construction, and
Anally there waB a crash and Tom waa
partially swallowed In Its Interior, When
he tried to escape, the barrel tilted over
and It and "the speaker rolled to the Btreet.
When a man's down the public will
very seldom help him, and thOse who lis
tened to Tom were no exception. The
epeotatora Irowned at biro and left nlra

Hut Sergeant Bhenle 1 not ao heart
less. He found the orator atruirgllng- and
soon freed him from the barrel and 1U
contents. A bath with a hose soon made
him partially presentable and Tom was
brought before Magistrate McCleary, The
Judge was In happy mood because he had

"You have been a steady customer be.

von Pnpon, German military attache, In

State Department expert translators to

It was also stated that a popular UBago
of tho word In Gorman means tho same

STATE DEPARTMENT TO
ACT FOR PHOTOPLAY
But Only as Medium of Protest
to England Over Barring
of American Film
By the Photoplay Editor
Motion pictures threaten to become the
subject of an exchange of international
notes. And all on account of the war.
Believing that the showing of the
American-made film play, "Hearts In
Exile," might give offense to tho Hus
sion Government, tho British Government
has ordered the film barred from all the
atres In Great Drltaln, with tho result
that for tho first time In the history of
the Department of Stato of tho United
States the Secretary has been asked to
file protest with another rower against
tho action of Its motion-picture censors.
Trlvate dispatches from London to tho
World Film Corporation, the producers
of the picture, state thnt the reason
given for barring tho photodrama Is that
"the showing of the photoplay might give
offense to Great Britain's heroic ally, tho
Imperial Russian Government." Immedi
ately upon receipt of this Information
tho World Film Corporation dispatched to
Robert M. Lansing. Secretary of State nt
Washington, the following telegram-
"The films showing the motion picture
play, 'Hearts In Exile,' produced by an
American corporation, tho World Film
Corporation, 130 West 46th Btreet, New
York city, at Its studio in Fort Lee, N. J.,
have been barred from theatres In Great
Britain by order of the British censor
on the ground that the showing of tho
photoplay might give offense to Oreat
Britain's ally, the Imperial Russian Gov
ernment. The World Film Corporation,
through your department, wishes to reg
ister protest with tho British Govern
ment ngalnst this action.
"The film play. In which Clara Kimball
Young, an American actress. Is starred,
depicts conditions In Russia and Siberia.
The play Is neither propagandist nor nntl
Russian, and the directors of the World
Film Corporation are at a loss to imagine
justification for the action of tho British
authorities.

Further advice from London Indicates
that the British War OHlce was entirely
responsible for the cdlot against "Hearts
In Kxlle." Theatrical men point to the
fact that never before havo plays and
llternturo dealing with Russian questions
been barred In Great Britain, and that Si
beria has often been exploited both on the
speaking stage and on tho screen.
The subway disaster In New York has
given tho Pnthe news service a fresh
opportunity to demonstrate Us enter
prise, swiftness and efficiency. Nlne
hours after tho accident patrons of 22
moving picture theatres In New York
city were seeing on the screen views of
'tho disaster. The Pathe freres had 15
prints ready before 4 30 p. m. Thrco
camera men reached the scene before 9
o'clock. Within nn hour their negatives
had been received in tho company's Jer
sey City studio, whero they wero devel
oped, projected on a screen and edited.
By 11.30 they were ready to bo printed.
They were placed on the drying drums
at 1 o'clock and two hours lator were on
Uielr wny back to tho studio, where a
squad of messengers was waiting, book
ings already having been mado by phone.
Defective Signal Halts Subway Trains
Subway trains on their way towards
tho ISth street station with hundreds of
passengers aboard were held up in tho
tubo between 32d street nnd tho station
this morning for several minutes. A de
fective Blgnal which warned ngalnst pro
ceeding further was responsible, train
men safd. Memories of tho BUbway con
struction work going on at City Hall and
of the disaster in New York yesterday
caused Rotno uneasiness until tho trains
proceeded.
