BRYN MAWIt. To., Oct. 2. -A spec
ular fall, Intermittent shafts of sun
lfght and the playing of tlio band this
afternoon brouRht back tho color which
'.has been bo sadly lacking at the Bryn
Mawr hors-e show stneo rain caused a
' postponement of yesterday's' program.
' Little Miss Frances Fowell, of JJryn

Amount cleared the fence, Miss Powell
receiving a nasiy ibii.
The pony nnrrowly missed treading on
1 Vier prostrate figure. Tho llttlo Mdcp
v gamely held on to tho bridle and gained
her feet without assistance.
The afternoon nttendanco was good, so
' clety turning out well bundled up In
furs and coats.
A unique touch was lent the Horso

A rift of blue sky raised false hopes,
' and the massive animals were taken out

.were almost empty when the show opened
this morning.
"'The hound show was concluded yes-

POLICE TRY TO SOLVE
MYSTERY
MAN FOUND ON TRACKS
Decapitated Body of
Fleming Discovered
Iroquois; Pa. Authori
ties Suspect Murder
VICTIM
Strong efforts are being made by the
police to solve tho mystery In the death
of William II. Fleming, of, 133$ Spruco
street, a lecturer on Bhakcspeare, whose
dccnpltntcd body was found on Thursday
on the tracks of the Pennsylvania Rail
road, near Iroquois, Ta. Tho railroad
police, are aiding In the Investigation to
determine whether Mr. Fleming was mur
dered, committed suicide or was killed
accidentally.
Mr. Fleming, who was 42 years old, was
reported to be fairly well to do, and the
theory has been advanced that he was
murdered on a lonely road near Iroquois,
which Is 21 miles west or Harrlsburg, by
a gan got thugs, who threw tho body on
tho tracks to conceal the exact place of
the murder. All of the valuables had
betn taken from tho dead man's cloth
ing, and this Is the strongest Indication
to tho police that he was murdered.
Identification of tho body was made
through a tailor's label found In the
trousers. These trousers were made by
Louis Backe, 1211 Rldgc avenue, this city,
who said today he remembered Mr. Flem
ing. Today the Rev. Dr. R. K. Terkes, rec
tor of the Protestant Episcopal Church
of the Transfiguration, Woodland avenue
near 34th street, also notified the police
that from partial Identification reported
from Iroquois, he believed the victim to
be Fleming.
The dead lecturer was reputed to have
a small fortune. A sister. Miss Mary
Fleming, lives at the Aldlne Hotel, Chest
nut street near 19th, and a brother
George N. Fleming, a broker, with offices
at Eth and Chestnut streets, lives at E331
Pulaski avenue, Germnntown. Both of
them were today In Now York, visiting
another brother, who Is a physician, and
could not be reached by the police to be
Informed of their brother's death.

Tho procession started from the Cham-bcrs-Wjlle

FRAUDULEiNT VOTING
PROVED BY POLICE
Startling Revelations of Irregu
larities at Polls Have
Been Uncovered
Stnrtllng revelations of padded legis
lation lists, gang thuggery and frndu
lent Voting at tho primary election, Sep-
i tember 21, have been uncovered by the
police In their omrlal canvass of 30
scattering election divisions at the order
of Director of Public Safety Robert D,
Drlpps,
"Complete figures will no be available
for a dnj or to. but I can state now that
plenty of cases of fraud were found," 1)1-
lector Drlpp said at noon today In an
l nourcltig that the police cnnais had
been completed In the 3a divisions from
which wholesr.ln complaints were re
ceived. t
This evidence illl be turned over to'the
Committee of Seventy.
The Director at the same lime took oc
inslon to deny tho chnrge that the pollco
uere being ued to further the Interests
of nny particular candidate or any partic
ular party.
"I nm determined that wo shall hae
nn honest election, no matter who must
suffer,", he declared.
Tho evidence of fraud, he said, were
not confined to nny particular" wnrd or
to nny particular part of the city, but
were scattered quite equally, it has been
estimated by those cloio to the Commit
tee of Seventy that the registration lists
this yenr have been padded to the cx
1 tout of 25,0 names by the Organization
nenchmen. The divisions canvassed were
thoso where violations of the law were
known to be most flagrant. It Is likely
that n canvass will be continued In other
districts where fraud to a lesser degree
Is suspected.
DONNER-FRICK CAPITAL
BUYS CAMBRIA STEEL
Control of Concern Passes
From P. R. R. After a
Month's Transaction
Control of the Cambria, Steel Company
lias been bought by William II. Donner,
president of tho company: Henry fj.
Krlck and allied Interests, after tranF
actions had been carried on for more
than a month, It nas learned today.
A dal for,contro: of tho Pennsjhanln
Steel Company has, nt the same time,
been carried so far toward completion
that It Is expected In financial circles
that Charles M. fichnab, head of the
Bethlehem Steel Corporation, will obtntn
the control. If thnt airangemcnts falls,
Pennsylvania Steel probably will be
bought by DonnerFrlck Interests, and
then will be merged v,lth Cambria Steel
nnd a third corporation believed to be
the Lnckawannn Steel Company.
The control of Cambria Steel passed
from the Pennsjlvanla Railroad Company
to tho Donncr-Frlck Inlet cuts throu;h
sale of the Pennsylvania Company's hold
ings In tho open market. Negotiations
for the sale of the Pennsylvania Steel
Company were carried on at a confeicnce
In Broad Street Station esterday. In
which Mr. Scwab met E. T. Stotesbury,
a director of the Pennsylvania Steel
Company, and Henry Tatnnll. vice presi
dent In charge of finance and a director
of the Pennsylvania Railroad. The con
ferees declined to tell the result of their
negotiations, but it nas believed that
they reached an agreement, or that at
least they were much nearer agreement
than ever before.

MANY FALLACIES have been exploited by Prohibitionists to
create the impression that Abraham Lincoln was an advo
cate of the Impractical proposition of law placing a ban upon the
use of liquors, when FACTS are to the contrary and point to the
great Emancipator being a supporter of Temperance in all things.
And Temperance means moderation not Prohibition.
LINCOLN was himself a dealer in alcoholics. In Nlcolay &
Hay's history of the lamented President (vol. I, chap. 4) it
is recorded: "By virtue of , half a dozen signatures. Berry and Lin
coln became proprietors of the only mercantile establishment in
the village" (New Salem, Illinois).
"T N the Spring of the next year, finding their merchandise gaining them little or nothing, they
X concluded to keep a tavern in addition to their other business, and the recordt of the com
pany, according to Sangamon county, shows that Berry took out a license for that purpose on the
6th of March, 1833. A copy of the original license, which appears below, presents evidence which
cannot be disputed:
LICENSE
(0
BERRY &
LINCOLN
AND it is a further FACT, recorded in history, that ia an ad
dress delivered February M, 1142, before the Springfield
Washingtonian Temperance Society. Lincoln said; "Too much
denunciation against dram-sellers ana dram-drinkers was indulged
in. This, I think, was both impolitic and unjust."
THUS is shown the FACT that Lincoln did believe in the mod.
crate use of liquor and that he o thoroughly approved that
he owned a tavern,, where was dispensed alcoholic stimvilanU t0
others.
