FALSE HETUIINS CHAnOED.
Mr O'Neill's friends say that at least
Suit flection boards have made false r.
"turns of Mr. O'Nell's vote, as shown by
examination ot tne Dauois curing the
itrmint of the prothonotary's vote. The

th Districts of the 3d Ward, say tho
CNell men.
The Braddock Ward Is the one In which
tlfht arrests were made following the
'primary election on charges of fraud.
Those under arrest are Chief of Police
James McCarthy, Constable Jacob Qold-
steln. Thomas Howard, Councilman and
Deputy Sherm, nna tne loiiowing mem
tbers ot the, election board: John Gal
'luher. Jr.. Chester Meyers. Joseph

fHolleran.
It was In this district that John Slvltz,
the candidate lor constable, kept tab on
the voters who went Into the booth with
a counting machine. This recorded only
MO voters as having cast ballots, as
against 635 ballots found in the ballot box.
BALLOTS LOOK QUEER.
A feature ot tho ballots that struck
everyone about the counting tables ns
very unusual was the fact that In the
column for nign constnme tho name of
Fred Selm had been written In many
Urnes George A. Alter, an attorney, says
at least 100 apparently by tho same per
son. The handwriting was strikingly
similar and the same sort of pencil had
keen used In every case. There was
toother Instance In which tho same name
fcad been written a smaller number of
times.
Before the count was started by the
county commissioners the majority of
Johns over Klrker was more than COO.

district.
U. S. COURT RULES
AGAINST MOVIE TRUST
Continued from race One
'Ausust 18 1912. and the suit has been
tarried oh with frequent Interruptions
since that time. A unique feature of tho
proceedings throughout has been the
claim of the Government that tho de
fendants have circumvented the antl-
ltrust law by claiming the protection of
the patent laws.
EThe defendants admitted that some of
their acts might be construed to be
aimed to evado tho anti-trust law, but
asserted that the consolidation was im
perative to prevent Infringement of their
patents on !Um3 and projecting machines.
Testimony was brought to bear on this
point which showed, however, that tho
defendants had obtained a "strangle
hold" on tho motion picture business by
a system of blnckllstlmr "dangerous"
(concerns and operators.
It was said that the General Film Com
pany, organized In 1909, and other largo
corporations, assigned all their patents
to the Motion Picture Patents Company
M trustee, giving the latter concern
power to enforce tho rules governing the
,M of Alms and machine. It was averred
that a blacklist of exchanges nnd ex
hibitors who operated Independently was
compiled, and all exhibitors and produc
ts were warned not to supply tho blacK

that whoever controls the Alms referred
to, controls the motion picture business,
but tho point with which wo are now
concerned Is that Interstate trade in these
nims Is within the statute."
Although Judge Dickinson admitted
that the patent laws give the proprietor
peculiar rights, he asserted that there Is
no escapo from the conclusion that pat
ents are subject to the provisions of the
antitrust law.
"If the owntr of a patented devlco
uses It as n weapon to disable a rival
contestant." JudRe Dickinson said, "or
to drive hlni from the Held, ho cannot
Justfy such use because of his patent
right, except to tho extent of protecting
his exclusive right"
In concluding his opinion he continued:
"It Is the legal Intendment of the con
tract or combination which Is to bo found.
Tho motives of the contracting parties,
whether innocent or otherwise, do not de
termine the real character of their act,
but it Is determined through the Judg
ment of tho law."
Tho decision of Judge Dickinson will
have very little affect upon tho motion

Lowry, treasurer of the Lubln Manufac

"I don't think. It will mnke much dif

made yesterday total 32S7.000, an Increase
of nearly J110.000 over the amount paid

GRAND JURY RAPS
COURT CONGESTION
Members Criticise Conditions
in House of Detention and
Municipal Court Branches
Congested conditions at the House ot
Detention nnd in Room 578, City Hall,
used by the Domestic Relations nnd MIs
ilemrnnnntH brunches of tho Municipal
Court, are criticised by the members of
the September Grand Jury, In their final
Drescntment to Juilpe Darratt, in Quarter
Sessions Court today.
The Grand Jury approved tho sugges
tions for Improvements mndo by tho
supervising probation ofllcer of the Do
mestic Relations nnd Mlsdcmennants
branches and the probation olHecrs of
the Juvenile division.
Recommendations arc mddc for the en
larging of the old-stylo windows at Moy
nmenslng PrlBon to furnish better light
nnd ventilation. It Is also fctigscstcd that
the county furnlih a general hospital for
tubercular patient among tho Indigents
now nt Dlockley and for Inmates of penal
Institutions.
The Jury followed the example of Its
predecessors. In concluding Its report, 'by
a recommendation that the city purchaso
a modern motorbus and do away with tho
old four-horse shay which Is now used
to carry tho Jurors on their tours of In
spection. TICKETS GOOD EITHER WAY
New Rule Concerning Railroad Faro
in Force Today
Passenger tickets on all railroads In
Pennsylvania, valid for "ono wny" Jour
neys only, can hereafter be used "cither
way." A decree of tho Public Servlre
Commission Issued several months ago
becomes effective today. That decree pro
vides that:
"Whcro tho passenger fare Is the same
In clthor direction between two stations
and whcro tho round-trip fare Is-the sum
of the two one-way fares the convenience
of the traveling public would be lnrreaucd
by having tickets for transportation be
tween such stations valid In either di
rection Instead of In one direction only,
as Is tho practice generally at this time.
"Railroad companies are hereby re
quired, except as to the coupon form of
ticket, to provide, effcctlvo not later than
September 1, 1315, that such tickets shall
he valid In either direction.
Why Nero Burned Rome
Nero put the Parlor match to
Rome because he had tired of the
brand of entertainment served up by
the Greek and Roman Drama Work
ers' Union. This country is full of
Neros. If the Royal Violinist could
have sat through one TRIANGLE
NIGHT'S ENTERTAINMENT
he would have changed his plan and
built a new theatre every hunared feet
along the Appian Way.
If he could have had a Griffith,
an Ince, and a Sennett to construct
his dramatic entertainment for him
there would have been fewer tragedies.
After seeing a Griffith romance
he probably would have invited the
Christian martyrs to dinner; after
witnessing a Sennett-Keystone-Com-
edy he would have ordered the works
of Aristophanes out of the public
library, and by the time he had seen a
few reels of an Ince, drama the Warm
Doings in the Colosseum would have
been discontinued without the usual
two weeks' notice.
TRIANGLE PLAYS the
same as are appearing at the Knicker
bocker Theatre in New York
may be se'en in Philadelphia when
the Chestnut Street Opera House
opens on Tuesday evening, Octo
ber 5th. Everything will be in the

By the Photoplay Editor
ITndor tho auspices of tho Red Cross
Sotlety of America, tho Plurngraph Com
pany has made arrangements to make,
for tho first time, tho completo activities
of thin wonderful organization In war
nnd pence. I..e Mot, tho well-known nlr
mnn, and John Coleman, tho director,
have met with soveral expert camera

It Is generally nssumed that tho work
of the Red Cross Is only first aid In time
of war. This Is nn Important branch, but
It also does work In connection with mine
disasters, railroad wrecks, wnter catas
trophes, etc, and will havo a first-aid
contest nt the Panama Deposition Sep

In cd'icntlng railroad men In relief work,
the Red Cross has two cars of its own in

nOUSE BURNS; SIT IN PARLOR
Women, Clad in Night Gnrb, Undis
mayed by Fire
A woman and her daughter sat calmly
In tho parlor of their home early today,
clad only In their nlghtclothcs, while
firemen extinguished a blaze In the rear
of their home at 3111 Wharton street. A
passing milkman saw flames Issuing from
the rear of the house and aroused John
Iiaxter and his wife and daughter, tho
occupants. Then he turned In an alarm.
Mrs. Baxter and her daughter rushed
downstnlrs to the street, but when as
sured that the blaze was almost under
control went back to the house and re
mained there until tho fire was put out.
The origin of tho Are Is unknown. The

Young Millionnfro Will An
nounce Plnn for Collective
Bargaining Devised by
Himself and Lieutenants .
TO OPPOSE A. F. OF L.
DENVm, Col., Oct. 1. What John D,
Ilcckcfcller, Jr., described as a "com
prehensive plan for collective bargain
ing with employes nnd a model for ad
justing labor troubles" will be submit
ted to representatives .of Itockeroller's
18 mining camps nt a secret meeting In
Pueblo, Col., tomorrow.
The plan Is Hockefcller's reply to the
United Mine Workers' demnnd for union
recognition. It wns developed by offl
clnls of Itockeleller's Colorado Fuel and
Iron Company, aided by Mackenzie King,
of the Itockcfollor Foundation, and per
fected by tho young millionaire himself
during his study of living conditions In
tho camps.
Announcement of the detailed arrange
ments for sclf-Kovernmcnt In the camps,
presentation of grievances, appeals to
company odlctuls nnd exhaustive explana
tion of the collective bargaining feature
will bo made by Ilockefellcr to tho gen
eral public Sunday. Tho Pueblo meeting
Is expected to approve tho plan which was
developed In the company's offices.
1 The scheme docs not recognlro the or
ganized labor movement of America, but
nockefcller wa emphatic in declaring:
"Any statement that this company will
never recognlzo the union Is unwarranted
and will creato unnecessary antagonism.
Our plan Is broader and more democratic!
than any system yet devised."
Asked If he had conferred with any
leaders of the United Mlno Workers, re
garding his "own union," Rockefeller
said: "The question is Immaterial. Our
plnn ought to stand on Its own feet."
In the Pueblo meeting will bo whites,
foreigners and negroes, elected by tho
Various camps, the camp superintendents
and officials of the company, besides
President J. F. Wellborn and young
Rockofellcr.
The representative of tho United Mine
Workers hero today declared the organ
ization's membership In tho United States
had Increased GO.000, notwithstanding the
loss ot practically Its entire Colorado
membership through Rockefeller opposi
tion. The cnln was made almost entirely
In tho Pennsylvania anthracite fields.

The New Soft Hat

THE Stetson Hat factory is tho largest in tho world, and
Stetson Hats are famous all over tho world. They are
famous because of their superior quality and good style
made in Philadelphia, and tho best in America. More Stet
son Hats are sold in this Store than in any other in this city.
We are proud of this distinction, and glad to feature Stetson
Hats prominently at all times.
lne btetson designers have
produced many models exclu
sively for this Store. Tho
Pen-curl of last year was a
notable success. But the
GREATEST HAT SUCCESS
ever achieved by them is th
"Angle"
THIS is indeed a remark
able Hat without a rival.
A Hat of distinctive style and
character, adapted to all ages
from seventeen to seventy.
A dozen different men may
wear it in as many different
ways the college fellow with
a bit of a care-free air, the
young business man with as
smart a dent as you please, or
the more sedate with a "just-
so" crease. The various shades, also, nrlrl tn it nrinntnWn
