MERRY MOHAN'S MIRACLES
AFTEIt aa brilliant a campaign as over
Xi. characterized tho light of a ball team
for a pennant, Moron's "Dusy Berthas," tho
outcasts of tho spring dopesters, rushed pell
welt ovor tho Bostoncso yesterday and
clinched mathematically the crown which It
was already morally certain they had won.
Ono by ono they havo met their antagon
ists and beat them back. It Is a fad to say
that tho Phillies won becauso tho league was
weak; It Is o, fact that they battcrod their
way through the most ovenly balanced clubs
thd league has yet known, with no weaklings
In sight to easo tho tension. They won bo
causo they had tho goods. "When Philadel
phia cannot turn out a winner In one lcaguo,
it can In tho other.
It is comforting to feel, too, that what
Alexander did yesterday on tho Braves' field,
he will do again In tho samo place, with
some other BostonoHO ns his victims, while
Cravath smites the sphere and his exulting
confreres dart along the bases.
Hats off to Tat Moran and tho Moron
clan I
HANDING PHILADELPHIA A LEMON
THE announcement by Senator Penrose In
Baltlmoro that ho thinks thd Republican
Rational Convention will bo held In Chicago,
taken in connection with.' the pathetic failure
of the Finance Committee of Councils to do
anything to hasten tho selection of a slto for
the proposed Convention Hall, seems to indi
cate that the politicians intend to give the
city tho laugh, as they say in tho vernacular,
trusting that a lemon will be satisfactory.
Quito probably tlo Senator will still use his
best efforts to wm the prize for Philadelphia,
albeit with no great enthuslnnm.
Vet It Is Philadelphia that must send a
rousing messago to tho nation by electing
Smith, for tho good of the Republican party,
wo oro told. Tho greatest Republican city
ought to be a good placo for the party con
vention, shouldn't It? A winner was nom
inated hero In 1000. A winner could bo nom
inated here again. But that trip to Chicago
mnkeH tho mouths of potential delegates
water, and what do they care what happens
to Philadelphia so long as they get their
Junket? Verily all the lobsters are no't on tho
Great Wlilto Way.
A NAME TO CONJURE WITH
NOTHING short of Inspiration has led tho
Independents to call their organization
the Franklin party. Franklin was one of the
first great civic patriots in tho United States.
Ills genius for efficiency and economy was
used early in his llfo for pointing out tho
way to reform the abuses in local govern
ment. Take tho matter of policing. There were
ward constables in his day who patrolled
the streets at night, assisted by tho house
holders whom they called in turn to assist
them. Tho man who preferred to pay six
shillings a year to doing his share of police
duty was allowed to compound for his serv
ice in this way. Tho constables, Instead of
hiring capable watchmen to .guard tho city,
pocketed tlio money and gathered a lot of
ragamuffins about them for a few drinks a
night, and property was not protected.
.Franklin demanded that this source of graft
5be closed and that a regular police force be
employed. His plan was Anally adopted.
Thero was a cleaner and a purer Philadel
phia in tho 18th century becauso Franklin
lived here. There must bo u. purer and
cleaner Philadelphia in the 20th century
berauso tho men of high purpose and clear
Vision have invoked his spirit to guide them.
WHO OWNS PHILADELPHIA?
Naked came I Into this government, and
naked corns I out of it. Saneho Panza.
EVERY honest public servant must per
force repeat .this saying of Don Quix
ote's worthy page on his retirement from
office. If he cannot say it with any show of
sincerity h lays himself open to the sus
picion that he has lined his pockets at the
expense of the people.
Government Is not maintained for tho sole
profit of tho governors. Public office is a
public trust, as Grover Cleveland said, and
h,a William Penn said two centuries beforo
Cleveland was born. But many men who
plot to get control of public affairs hold, after
the faihtpn T the rulers of the Central
American republics, that public office is a
private perquisite.
CREDIT IN 1915 AND 18G3
AJfT PNE wishing- to understand the slg
tfVnlflcunco of the successful negotiation of
Ave per cent loan by France and England
in tlm United States at 98 has pnly to com
Hre U price at which the securities will bo
Ukn fry American investors with the price
which Ajnsrieaps, who were fighting for the,
IHrwServation of, the Union, were willing to

mw. jay VmvL, of this city; wtw tlw aat
through whom they were sold to the public.
They Were issued at par to take up a lot
of greenbacks, and the greenbacks were ac
cepted at par In exchange for the bonds. The
transaction meant that a non-lnterest-bear-Ing
note of llio Government was to be taken
up by tho lsuo of an Interest-bearing bond.
These now securities were sold In the open
market at a small premium; but when we
recall that gold was worth from US to 147,
nntl thnt It would take Nearly $3 In green
backs to buy 12 worth of gold, tho real value
of tho securities is apparent.
At tho samo time It took t.E0 In paper to
buy tl In London exchange. Tho prestnt
rato of London exchange, with a pound
sterling worth only $1.70 In New York, shows
no such demoralization as existed in 1864.
And tho ability of the Allied Powers to float
a loan hero on terms as good as prevail In
ordinary peace times proves that their credit
Is still unstrained, and thnt money, tho most
timid commodity In the world, still hns con

rpilR Woodland Avenuo Business Men's As--soclntlon
hns selected a good time to
bilng to tho attention of citizens generally
tho gravo results likely to follow the omis
sion of the contemplated Darby elevated lino
from tho transit Improvements authorized by
Councils.
Tho futuro of transit Is wrapped up In
tho present political campaign. Phllndol
phlans may ns well despair of n universal
B-cent fare and adequate facilities for all
parts of tho city If Davo Lano's creatures
arc permitted to get Into office. Mr. Lnno
seems to hate Improvement of any kind, but
most of nil he hates transit Improvements.
Tho nicro montlon of them sets him In a
rage. He Is against tho improvements al
rendy authorized. They are, to him, an
evidence of public hysteria. It has been sus
pected, too, that Senator Patton favors the
Darby lino In theory but Is against It In
practice It might pay West Phlladolphlans
to find out l Just whero their representatives
really stand. Adopting resolutions Is a good
thing, but It is a far better thing to elect
men who will make them effective.
Tho figures presented are convincing. By
January 1 thero will bo approximately 36.000
men employed at nddystonc, all of them
earning good wages. They and their fami
lies comprise a population of almost 200,000,
a veritable city, and they will not be Phll.a
dclphlans unless they have adequate facili
ties for reaching their work from their
homes In town. It would cost less than
live million to build the proposed line, and
tho 36,000 workers would be worth more to
Philadelphia yearly than that gross sum
When looking for business nway from homo,
It is not wiso to lose business that Is already
at home.
West Phlladolphlans and other Phllndel
phlnns have the situation in their own hands.
Thoy can put the comprehensive Taylor
transit plan Into effect if they want It. But
they cannot do so by voting for politicians
who are against it.
How, Mr. Citizen, do tho candidates In
your ward stand on rapid transit? v-
WHERE CENSORSHIP TENDS
The free communication of thoughts and
opinions Is ono of the Invaluable rights of
man, nrid every citizen may freely speak,
write and print on any subject, being re
sponalble for the abutte of that liberty.
Article I, section 7, of the Constitution of
Pennsylvania.
THE lower courts havo held that this does
not apply to tho right to exhibit pictures
and that the "movie" censorship has been
established without violation of any of tho
fundamental liberties of the people guaran
teed to them by the Constitution.
Their attempt to override the principles of
freedom has produced tho kind of complica
tions which prudent persons foresaw from
the beginning, and the State censorship has
deprived the police authorities of the cities
of tholr power to hold the proprietors of
moving plcturo places responsible for tho
consequences of the exhibition of objection
ablo films. Tho late Mayor Gaynor, of New
York, who vetoed an ordinance empower
ing the Board of Education to censor the
"movies," was better advised than tho Gen
eral Assembly of this State. Ho had the
wisdom to see that if it wero constitutional
to decide in advance what pictures might bo
shown it would also be constitutional to put
into every newspaper office a censor to de
cide what might be printed nnd thereby to
destroy that great bulwark of popular gov
ernment, a free press.
Tho fear of tho libel laws keeps the press
within bounds and the fear of the laws
against exhibiting Indecent, libelous or im
moral pictures will prevent the "movie"
managers from offending public taste, es
pecially if thoso who transgress are rigor
ously punished under the general laws cover
ing such offenses. Moving pictures that are
not indecent but simply untrue to the facts
of history, carry their own correction when
ever they are shown.
What's half a billion between friends?
Tho mother instinct will sometimes move
a woman to do strange things.
The odors in Rlttenhouse Square are not
to be compared with those in Penn Square.
Not even the care- of a mother who is a
trained nurse ran save tier children from
the accidents of prophylaxis.
Returning Bryn Mawr students are learn
ing to their delight that tho higher educa
tion is not a bar to marriage.
Poor Phillies! They've got no tnfleld and
they've got no outfield, yet even their bitter
est critics will admit that they've got the
pennant.
President Wilson need not be ashamed of
the tears that he shed as the Grand Army
veterans passed in review before lilfn. It
was a moving sight.
i i'
Were Franklin alive he would be fighting
for rapid transit, and that Is what enterpris
ing citizens of this community will be dolne
during the next few weeks.

Lending Banker Describes Finnncinl
Conditions and the West's Atti
tude Toward tho Loan to Eng
land and France
By WILLIAM A. LAW
Prealclent Klrat Natlenal nank of rhllatlelnhtft sntt
exI'realri'nt American Hankers' Aaaoelatlon.
The author of the following article has
fust rrtnrntil to the eitu from a trip through,
the West. At Seattle he preslArd over the
sessions of the American Hankers' Asso
ctotlon. He has lately, therefore, come in
close personal contact with bankers and
business men of all parts of the country.
WHILE thero Is a widespread wish In the
West to uphold Presldont Wilson in his
handling of tho problems nrlslng from the
Kuropenn war, thero
Is a decided difference
of opinion ns to wheth
er tho Democratic
policies have been
beneficial to tho coun
try ns a whole, nnd
homo of the great par
ties can ns yet safely
claim n preponderat
ing Inllucnco in tho
coast States.
On tho coast one
hears much less tnl"
about tho European
war than In tho East,
but Its effects upon

ket price") for staple products are nono tho
less distinctly noticeable.
In Seattle the lumber trndo Is badly out of
Joint, and, whllo many mills are operating,
tho volume Is much reduced nnd llttlo export
business is being done. However, great ac
tivity is reported in fisheries, and thoso en
gaged in raising cattle and sheep aro expe
riencing quite satisfactory conditions. Tho
manager of tho largest department store in
Seattle told me that his sales, nil of which
aro for cash, wero well ahead of last year's
totals. Whllo there Is a lull In the great con.
struction work, both public nnd private,
which usually goes on, people have by nu
means lost courage, nnd we heard no gloomy
views as to the futuro. Tho opportunities
nnd possibilities of Alaska laro realized only
when one consults the practical men who ure
co-operating In Its development.
On the Const
Further down the coast tho low prices for
agricultural products such as fruits and veg
etables reflected decreased purchasing power
and the cessation of exports. Orange grow
ers nro suffering by the complete closing of
German and Abstrlan mnrkcts. In San
Francisco and Los Angeles tho bankers
complained of the samo plethora of monev
from which wo are suffering In Philadelphia.
All along the coast there is tho most in
tense criticism of the La Folletto seaman's
bill, which has taken the American flag oft
tho Pacific Ocean and transferred to the dis
liked Japanese the power of carrying or re
fusing to carry American products to thoso
in foreign lands who wish to buy them. This
matter is viewed with tho utmost serious
ness, nnd, with tho tariff changes by which
Canadian lumber Is admitted, will play a
largo part In national politics In tho States
along the const.
As few tourists are going to Europe this
year and the San Francisco Fair attracts
many of them, more Eastern people "havo
visited tho coast this year than ever before.
This has brought a good deal of money into
that section, and, what is much more Im
portant, has educated our own countrymen
to ttie conditions and possibilities of that
most Interesting region, nnd has afforded
them delightful experiences in genuine
Western hospitality.
The Trend Toward Prosperity
In New- Mexico we had our first reportB of
entirely satisfactory conditions. Last win
ter's snows, combined with a satisfactory dis
tribution of rainfall, enabled the herders and
cattlemen to produce an unusually largo
yield, and, having obtained exceptionally
good prices for wool, hides, cattle and horses,
the section ns a whole Is exceedingly pros
perous. In Kansns City there hns been a decided
revival of trade, and tho banks are experi
encing n normal demand for loans, though
rates aro still much too low. But here, as
elsewhere, there was considerable comment
upon the slow grain movement. Wheat
growers expect high prices, whllo the millers
are unwilling to buy, anticipating a sub
stantial decline, nnd ofttlmes objecting to
tho condition of wheat. Ah Is usual with
other farmers, the wheat growers quickly
adjusted themselves to tho recent abnormally
high prices and regard thoso now prevailing
ns Inadequate. Wo heard this view cxpressod
by bankers from many of tho wheat grow
ing States, and it was commented upon oven
more than tho size of the record crop.
The St. Louis bankers told us that Condi
tions, both Industrial and commercial, were
steadily Improving, nnd that their great
Southwest territory had been greatly re
lieved by tho advance In cotton. It is now
generally recognized that cotton occupies an
extremely strong position, considering the
sharply reduced acreage, tho smaller yield,
the lower cost of production and the easy
financial position of the entire country. Thcso
elements appear to offset any reduction In
foreign consumption, and tho dry goods trade
has already felt the stimulus of increased
prices of raw material.
Effects of Allies' Loan
At many points the Anglo-French loan was
seriously discussed; especially in San Fran
cisco the leading bankers realize that the
successful distribution of this loan is most
vital toward sustaining the normal move
ment of this country's important agricultural
products. Broad-minded bankers expressed
the willingness to support such a loan for
such purposes wore it offered either by Ger
many or Great Britain, A prominent Ger
man banker, while feeling that tho loan
would bo unpopular, expressed the opinion
that any one doubting the soundness of a
loan guaranteed by Great Britain would only
reveal his Ignorance, as there 'was still no
better Government socurlty -than a British
Consol.
Upon those who are well informed regard
ing the economic effects of this loan upon our
domestic commerce there rests the retjponal
bHity of informing bankers, Investors and
the people generally of the actual influences
and effects involved in the transaction, for'at
the presetit time there are many aspects of
(he matter which have not been fairly and
thoroughly considered.

GUN-CURE FOR DUAL CITIZENSHIP
Patriotic Exploit of American Naval Officer Case in Cleveland
Court, Involving Vienna's Claim on Ciepielowski,
Recalls Famous "Koszta Affair"
BY HERBERT
IF NOT exnetly parallel, tho case in the
Common Pleas Court of Cleveland, Ohio,
the centrnl flguro in which Is a munitions
worker of the namo of Ciepielowski, can
hardly fall to bring to tho mind of the stu
dent of American history an Incident of Inter
national celebrity dating back more than f
sixty years. Tho extradition of this humhlo
artisan Is demanded by tho Austro-Hungn-rlan
Government, on tho ground that he made
"treasonable" remarks about tho Fatherland.
Associated heroically with tho "Koszta nf
falr," tho name of Captain Duncan Natha
niel Ingrnham, U. S. N., shines with a lustro
still undlmmed. That Intrepid officer, whoso
conception of the dignity of his Government
ledhlm successfully to defy a wholo fleet of
Austrian warships In tho harbor of Smyrna,
Turkey, In 1853, trained the guns of tho sloop
of wnr St. Louis on tho Austrian brig
Huszar, though the latter was supported by
half a dozen ships, and won his point against
a spirit which now seems recrudescent In
Vienna.
Koszta Seized By Austrians
Martin Koszta, a Hungarian by birth
nnd compatriot of Kossuth, had taken part
In tho revolution of 184S-49, which had for
Its object tho detachment of Hungary from
the dominions of tho Emperor of Austria,
nnd emigrated to tho United States shortly
after tho failure of that movement. In July,
1852, ho made a declaration of his Inten
tion to become an American citizen, at the
fcame time, of course, renouncing allegi
ance to any foreign Power. The following
year private business took him to Turkey,
whero ho placed himself under tho protection
of American diplomatic representatives. I
was while ho was under this fancied security
that a plot was concocted by some Austrian
officers In Smyrna, Inspired by their Govern
ment, to effect his capture and return him to
Vienna to stand trial for "treason," the samo
charge that is now made against Ciepielowski
at Cleveland. He was seized on the streets by
a band of mercenaries employed by the con
spirators and carried aboard the Huszar, a
warship lying in Smyrna harbor. Despite
his protests he was' confined in irons and
subjected to great indignities. It was on the
day following the selzuro of Koszta that the
sloop-of-war St. Louis, flying the Stars
and Stripes, sailed into Smyrna harbor.
Captain Ingroham, its commander, apprised
of Koszta's plight, sent to the captain of tho
Huszar a courteous request for permission to
seo tho prisoner. To this request assent was
granted, and Captain Ingraham, after a con
versation with Koszta, assured the latter he.
was entitled to the protection of the American
flag. Prompt demand for tho prisoner's re
lease was made by the commander of tho
St. Louis, which demand was contemptu
ously refused. Thereupon Ingraham com
municated tho facts to the nearest United
States diplomatic ofllcer, who happoned to be
Consul Brown, statlonod at Constantinople.
Meanwhile, six additional Austrian warships
had come into harbor and anchored ejose to
the Huszar, While Captain Ingraham was
waiting for a reply to his message to Consul
Brown he noticed tho Huszar, with Koszta
on board, getting ready to leave. Shortly
afterward the Austrian was under way.
"Clear for Action!"
It didn't take a man of Ingraham's calibre
long to make up his mind about a matter
which to his way of thinking Involved the
dignity of the American flag. He put the
St. Louis in tho Huszars course, and a
shot from the sloop's guns went flying across
the bows of the Austrian bftg-of-war, Tho
Huszar hove to at this emphatic summons,
and in reply to Captain Ingraham's .question
as to the meaning of the warship's summary
departure was informed that tho Austrian
Consul had directed the Huszar to sail for
home with the prisoner Koszta.
The captain, of the Bt, Louis vigorously
protested, telling the Hussar's commander,
what he already knew, that the matter of
Koszta's standing had been referred to the
American Consul at Constantinople. The
Austrian, glancing at the fleet supporting
him, replied that he would dj as he pleased.
"Clear the guns for action" was Captain
Ingraham's rejoinder to the Austrian,
The sight of the gurts of tho gallant Amer
ican rtoop turned broadside on the runaway
Huszar, and the knowledge he, had gajnel of
Captain Ingraham's rtrmlnd though our
tua JuirMtM-, tfarMigfc paraaat.' pwUt

with thnt Indomitable American officer, per
Buaded the commander of the Huszar to tako
pause In his contemplated flight, oven with
half a dozen other Austrian warships close
at hand. Temporizing was attempted, but
Captain Ingraham was resolute. The Huozar,
with its captive, turned back, Its commander
having a wholesome regard for American
prowess as well as American diplomacy in
thoso days, and manifestly having no hanker
ing after an international complication such
ns Ambassador Dumba succeeded In inviting
by his meddlesome Interference with Amer
ican industries.
America Enthusiastic
Captain Ingraham's action was hnlled with
acclaim by tho American people, but so In
censed the Austrian Government that, acting
under instructions from Vienna, Baron Hulso
mann, who back In tho 60s held relatively tho
samo position as that from which Dr. Con
stantly Dumba has virtually been thrown out
head and heels, wrote to the Secretary of
Stato asking the United States Government
"to disavow the conduct of its agents."
Did the United States Government heed
this arrogant demand of Vienna? It did not.
The Secretary of State In 1S53 was William L.
Marcy, who in his stormy political career had
never been accused even by his most ardent
enemies of being a "pussy-foot," or what Mr.
Roosevelt today would designate as a "molly
coddle," and. he defended In a ringing letter,
known as the "Hulsemann letter," the posi
tion of the United States throughout.
Marcy's letter was received with unbounded
enthusiasm throughout the United Statci,
nnd the Btand taken by the Secretary of State
was Indorsed by competent authorities on In
ternational law. It is needless to add that
Koszta, who after Captain Ingraham's gal
Iant coup had been turned over to the custody
of the Consul General of France, pending
final adjustment of this celebrated case, was
ultimately released and returned to tho
United States, a notable examplo of the powor
of diplomacy backed by what In this twen
tieth century Is forcefully, If not elegantly,
1 designated ns "American pep."
