CRIPPLE, CAUGHT AFTER
ROOF TOP CHASE, DUPED
MANY FIRMS, POLICE SAY
Used Names of Prominent Per
sons to Get Goods From
Instalment Houses, It
Is Charged
PLEA FOR HIS FAMILY
A fantastic scheme by which a doxen
or mora Instalment houses have been
swindled out of several hundred dol
lars, adopted by a H-year-old cripple to
support his deserted mother and slater,
was broken up today by the arrest ot
the youth, Frank II. Hreward, of 2730
Kensington nvenue. Hreward walked Into
the hands of Postal Inspector Smith arter
he had eluded the latter In a thrilling
chase over roof tops.
Breward's plan, according to the postal
authorities, Is without precedent In fact
or fiction. How he avoided detection and
arrest for so long they cannot explain.
One of the most audacious features of his
scheme was the use of the names of
Philadelphia's most prominent business
men and bankers as references. Hreward
save names of such unimpeachable
financial standing th.it, ns a generul rule,
the Arm to which he applied for credit
never even thought of Investigation
For several months complaints nave
been coming In to Chief Postal Inspector
Cortelyou's ofllce from Instalment and
mall-order houses, as well as from other
firms. In every Instance the same method
was used, according to the complaints.
The full details of the scheme have not
yet been ascertained, but It is thought
that Hreward must have obtained some of
the goods at other addresses, probably at
vacant houses that he Ilxcd hurriedly up
with curtains to deceive delivery men.
Inspector Smith got on the trail of the
youth two or three days ago. lie went
to the Kensington avenue house this
morning with City Hall Detectives Wis
ter and Hill and rang the bell. Hreward
cautiously opened the door, took one look
at the three men and then fled up the
stairs. He managed to keep about two
Jumps ahead of them until he reached
the roof When they got through the
trapdoor, which he slammed down as he
went out, ho had disappeared.
A moment later, the detectives say.
the figure dodged behind a chimney. Hre
ward seemed to know just where he was
going, and after a short chase ho again
eluded the detectives. They went back
to the house, and a half hour later he
crept back and was captured.
PENN STUDENTS CHEER
SUFFRAGIST AND 'ANTP
Impartial in Applause for De
baters on Votes for Woman
Problem
A ripple of excitement spread over the
University of Pennsylvania campus this
afternoon because a debate on the suf
frage question was staged In Houston
Hall The ripple was Just largo enough
to take 2D0 students of the 2500 in the
undergraduate departments away from
their textbooks or whatever else occupies
college students on Friday afternoons.
Miss Minnie Bronson, of Now York
representing the "antl" cuuse, spoke first!
leaving the last word to be said by Miss
Elizabeth McShane. of this city.
Miss Bronson wanted to know whether
the blandishments of suffrage workers
were more appealing to other women's
husbands than to their own. If not,
she wanted to know why suffragists did
not stay at home and convince their
husbands, thus winning the franchise
without going Into the highways and
byways
Also, she scoffed at the Idea of the
suffrage movement being new. by declar
ing that 100 years before the Christian
era Cato complained that votes-for-wom-en
advocates blocked the Roman forum.
Furthermore, she declared that she
had lobbied for legislative measures, and
that her bills had been passed, despite
the fact she was a woman.
The students cheered Miss Bronson
cordially, and then Miss McShane said:
"Antl-suffraglsts are not bad people, but
they are In bad company.
"It Is Impossible for a woman to do
housework properly without the ballot.
"Why ask women how they will vote?
You do not ask young men of II how
they will -ote."
In conclusion she formulated the doc
trine that "we women are not all angels,
hut If we were you wouldn't like us."
Miss McShane was applauded neither
more nor less than Miss Bronson had been
applauded. The students declared the de
bate was an "even break," whatever that
may mean to the collegiate mind.
ORGANIZATNON AGAINST
WOMAN SUFFRAGE
Continued from 1'ase One
ballot, be supported, when the city com
mitteemen asked In a chorus:
"What about No. I?"
Amendment No. 1 on the ballot Is the
suffrage amendment.
"Amendments Nos. 2, 3 and 4 should
without question receive tile support of
every man In this Organization," was
Congressman Vare' answer.
"ASSISTANCE" TO VOTEHS.
He then told the committeemen what
preparations were being made for whole
sale assistance to voters. The Organiza
tion election juuges win attend the meet
ings of the Republican ward committees
Monday night, and, together with the
members of the ward committees, will
be lOld the formula which will be fol
lowed by the Organization In "assisting"
voters, he said,
"Under the primary election laws," said
Congressman Vare, "a voter must take
an oath that he la physically unable to
mark his own ballot before he can re
ceive assistance. I'nder the law govern
ing. the general election, the election
Judge has not the right to Inquire why
fessor, who attempted his life, had ab
solutely nothing to do with the financier's
condition.
The two bullets that entered Morgan's
body In his tussle with Holt on July 3, in
Meted only flesh wounds. It was stated.
The banker recovered fully from tho ef
fects of the shooting, It was declared at
his office, though his general condition
a voter wantu assistance, and the
declaration by .the voter that he wants
assistance cannot be overthrown through
soiy question as to Its truth.
"The ballot this year is very compli
cated, To cut It it Is necessary to mark
about It places. I want to call your at
tention to one point about assistance to
voters. If a men says, 'I want assist
ance.' he cannot receive It. as It is not In
accordance with the law. He should say,
'By reason of. my disability I require
assistance,' nd the Judge has not the
Ticbt to ask the reason."
In connection with the plan of the Or
ganization to arm the polls with an army
cf paid watchers he said: "In my ward,
the Mth, I have found that contributions
to the campaign fund have been more
liberal than ever before We are making
provisions In the small divisions to have
t least IS men at the polls with badges
on. and. In the larger divisions. K or IS
men. They will line Up at each polling I
place before the polls open, so that when I
-tlie opposition comes around it wilt know I
what it has to face." j
HENRY G. WASSON WILL
CAST VOTE FOR SUFFRAGE
PITTSBURGH, Oct. 29. Henry
G. tVatson, present member of the
Republican National Committee,
hat announced that he will vote
for the amendment to confer tuf
frage upon the women of the
State. He made thit ttatementl
"To my Way of thinking, there
it no more juttification in denying
the ballot to one half of the popu
lationthe half that heart the
greater burden, it more tpiritual,
quicker of ditcernment, more
moral than in denying to the
lame one half equal ute of the
public highway! or equal oppor
tunity tr redrett itt wrongt in the
courtt of juttice, timply btcaute
that one half happent to have been
born of the gentler tex,
"I thall gladly tupport the pro
poted conttitutional amendment
becaute, if adopted, it would con
fer a right upon women to which
they are equally entitled with men,
and becaute the Commonwealth it
entitled to the benefit which 1
believe would retult from giving
them the ballot."

IIENKY G. WASSON
MRS. BARLOW, BY WIN,
FAVORITE AT LAKEWOOD
Philadelphia Golfer Victor in
Thrilling Match The
Summaries
LAKEWOOD, N. J.. Oct. 29. Women
golfers who qualified yesterday for match
play In tho Invitation tournament on the
links of the Country Club of Lakewood
turned their attention today to the first
round. Mrs. Ronald II. Barlow, the
medal winner, became the lavorlte for
the chief cup when she defeated Mrs. J.
S. Irving, of Scars-dule, 8 and C, nnd Mrs.
H. Reeve Stockton, of Plnlnfleld. lost to
Mrs. C. J. S. Eraser, of Baltusrol. In a
21-hole match.
Mrs. Barlow got away to a poor start,
her drive on the Ilrst hole being badly
sliced Into the rough. Even at that, she
was able to get n half, for Mrs. Irvlng's
work around the green was none too
good. Mrs. Harlow became one up at
the second, and the most spectacular shot
of the match was brought off In the third
hole by the former Eastern champion.
Her third shot came to rest within 70
yards of the green, but Mho holed out
the approach for a four. This made her
two up. By the time the turn was
reached she had gained an advantage of
j jjve holes.
Recording a two on the short 10th,
thanks to a tine tee shot, Mrs. Barlow
nnnexed that and the next as well, when
she got a par three. A four on the 270
yard 12th hole made her eight up with
six to play.
The excitement, so far as the gallery
was concerned, was furnished by tho
three extra holes between Mrs. Kraser
and Mrs. Stockton. At the offset It ap
peared as If the Baltusrol woman would
have things ull her own way, for she
won 4 out of the Ilrst 0 holes. This ad
vantage she held until the end of the
eighth, and held a 3-hole advantage at
the turn.
Then Mrs. Stockton came to life, win
ning the 10th and 12th, where Mrs. Stock
ton came to within striking distance.
She squared the match with a spectacular
3 on the 240-yard 13th, one under par.
From there on It was nip and tuck to
the end. Mrs. Eraser had about a M,
while the other picked up on several
holes.
A halt in 5 was recorded on the lath
and Mrs. Stockton fulled to grasp her
chance at the second 20th, when her ap
proach putt was badly short. A similar
lupse on the last green cost her the hole
and the match.
The summary follows:

BELL TO REPLACE
BERRY AT QUARTER
Continued from I'ase One
start tomorrow If It were necessary, hut
he will bo saved for the championship
game with Dartmouth next week.
Another shift the coaches Intend to
make next week is that of Rockufcller
for Tlghe at left halfback. Rockafellcr
has had a bad shoulder for several days,
nnd will not be ready for a hard scrim
mage until next week.
The coaches had hoped to give Stack
a chance at left end In place of Hop
kins, but he has not yet fully recovered
from the injury he received last week.
There is still a chance that he will get
into the game because Kopkins is not
In very good shape himself.
The practice this afternoon was of the
lightest character. It consisted of the
usual preliminary drill in kicking, for
ward passing, etc., and ended with a
sharp signal drill. The coaches also
gave the men some pointers on how to
break up forward passes which they
think Lafayette will use tomorrow.
In nn effort to get up more enthusiasm
for the game there will be a torchlight
parade tonight, In which 2000 students
will participate, They will march from
the Dormitory triangle to the training
house, where they will cheer the team
and listen to speeches from the coaches
and old players.
The management Is looking for a big
crowd at tomorrow's game. There will
he an unusually big delegation of stu
dents and Eastern residents, who will
come down in a special train tomorrow
morning. The line-up for tomorrow's
same follows;

VARE WILL INTRODUCE
BILL TO BUILD NAVY
TEST STATION HERE
Congress to Be Asked to Locate
the Great Experimental
Station in This
City
EDISON FAVORS PLAN
i The suggestion that the large na' v i
plant and experimental station advocated
; by Thomas Edison, chairman of the Ad .
Vinr ltn.irrl tt the 'nvv. hn situated at I
thf Philadelphia Navy Yard was favor
ably commented upon by members of

I W.,.."...,..... ...... ....... ...... , V .....
tntroduco a bill at the coming session of
. j Congress looking to the obtaining of adc
tiunto funds to start the wotk.
Mr. Edison, It Is said, strongly ad
vocates that the plant be built here be
cause of the ndvantnges In obtaining
skilled labor, fuel nnd steel. Secretary
Daniels, nceordlng to dispatches from i
Washington, will recommend that $1,000.- .
000 be set aside In the naval appropria
tion bill to begin the work.
"I am glad that Secretary Daniels looks
favorably on this city ns tho logical point
for the plant," said Congressman Vare.
"I will Introduce n bill nt the next ses
sion of Congress nsking for nn npproprln
tlon to start the construction of tho
plant."
Congressman .1. Hampton Moore ex
pressed himself ns favorable to the con
struction of the plant at the Philadelphia
yard.
"The Philadelphia N'avy Yard Is the
bi'st "UKgestlon for the proposed experi
ment station for the Navy Department,"
he said. "Mr. Edison Is entirely right
If he Miggcsts that this port has ndvan
tnges superior to others. I know from a
recent conversation with Secretary Dan
iels tint he entertains the highest opinion
of the Philadelphia Navy Yiud because
of Its proximity to the labor market nnd
fuel supplies.
"But Secretary Daniels nnd Mr. Edison,
unfortunately, can do no more Just now
than make recommendations to Congress,
which must determine whether we shall
build battleships, erect experiment sta
tions, armor plants, or any other of the
great Improvements suggested.
"When Congress meets In December
these questions) will begin to assume def
inite shape, but Philadelphia, as usual,
must be prepared to prove Its claims
nlong with the other yards of the coun
try. "Brooklyn, which Is overcrowded; Nor
folk, which Is expectant, and Mnro
island, which claims consideration be
cause of the demnnds of the Pacific
const, will all lie In the running.
"In addition to the navy yard propo
rtion, Philadelphia will also have to he
ready to promote the welfare of its
arsenals. A propaganda In favor of In
creasing Rock Island Arsenal Is already
being launched by the Illinois members
of Cong! ess, and great claims ore bring
set up ns to what Rock Island Is pre
pared to do.
"Wo claim that Rock Island Is an ex
pensive proposition to the Government
and that tho Frnnkford Arsenal Is one
of the most economical. The desire of
the other sections of the country to tlguro
Into nntlonnl appropriations enters Into
It nil, but, as to the experiment station
for the navy. It would seem that the
advantages lie with Philadelphia because
naval experiments ought necessarily to
be held near the coast.
"Personally, I believe the old fight
over the drydock will figure along with
the experiment station proposition, be
cause Norfolk Is Insistent It should have
tho next great drydock, and the official
sentiment in Washington Is favorable to
It. In the long run It may be that these
recommendations coming from Mr. Dan
iels, Mr. Edison nnd others may lead to
compromises when Congress comes to
appropriating funds."
Mr. Vare Is planning to introduce sev
eral bills In favor of the Navy Yard.
The 1700-foot drydock bill, Introduced by
Congressman Robert E. Lee last Con
gress, will be reintroduced by the South
Philadelphia member. Mr. Vare will also
ask for a J6.000.000 appropriation for an
armorplnte plant, and $500,000 for n cen
tral foundry at the yard for making
brass and Iron castings.

prior to the shooting.
Since his recovery from the bullet
wounds, Morgan has been at his desk
regularly, making his way to New York
from his Olen Cove estate by yacht and
motorcar. In the last few weeks he has
been busy with details or the half-billion
dollar Anglo-French loan, which was ar
ranged In this country through his ef
forts. To bankers who met him, Morgan In
sisted that he was In the best of health
and the news that he had undergone an
operation caused tho greatest surprise In
financial centres.
Doctors Lyle and Markoe, who per
formed the operation, attended Morgan
when he was shot by Holt, whose real
name was Eric Muenter, in the fanciful
belief tha he was helping to stop muni

ed. Every uniformed olllccr was com
pelled to hand to tne lleutenunt of the
district names of occupants of every
house on his beat. These names were
listed. As a family moved out It was
learned where they were moving to, and
the lieutenant of the district to which
they moved wns notified of their coming.
As a family moved Into tho Sixth District
It was Investigated, nnd if their charac
ters were In any way shady they were
notified that If any Illegitimate business
was started they would be sent to Jail
Immediately.
' On December 1, 1312, there was not a
dollar graft being paid out of Chinatown
to anybody. On Christmas nnd New
Year there was not a dollar's worth of
presents given out of Chinatown to a
politician or pollco official or sub
ordinate. "All during this tlmo we had our opera
tives planted In tho most notorious dives
in the Tenderloin, who kept us In touch
with the workings or dealings between
tho people of tho underworld and tho
pollco of the Cth or 8th Districts.
ORGANIZATION LEADERS WATCHED
"Within two months after we started
our Investigation wo had high-class In
formants In the confidence of virtually
every big leader in the Gang Organiza
tion. "We had Informants In the offices of
Penrose, McNIchol, D. Clarence Glbboney,
Leader Jumes Carey, of the 6th Ward;
Leader James Dorney, of the 18th Ward,
and Leader Campbell, of the 6th Ward.
Theso men kept our operatives In close
touch with practically all that was be
ing done by the McNIchol-Penrote Or
ganization, "During the Roosevelt primaries, In the
spring- of 1912, our Informants kept us In
close touch with every move that Pen
rose and McNIchol were making. In fact,
they attended one or two meetings In
Penrose's olllce when conditions were
being talked over with such men as Wil
liam Lleb, of Schuylkill County; William
P. Gallagher, of Wllkes-Rurre ; Herman
Miller, of Harrlsburg, and Harry Ilakcr,
secretary of the Republican State Com
mittee. "From tnformatl&n obtained at these
meetings It was considered advisable for
our operatives to shadow several of theso
men, as It was known that money was to
be spent to buy Roosevelt delegates for
the McNIchol-Penrose machine.
PURCHASE PLAN AUANDONED.
Yf knew every movement that was
belns made toward buying these delegates.
We arranged a plan whereby one of our
operatives, in the confidec.ee or Carey, ar-
ranged to deliver two Roosevelt delegates

iity on tho wire.
"Carey, however, failed to appear. He
tuld our oturatlvcs next day that Pen
rose or McNIchol would not put out the
iimncy until they looked tile situation
over In lliirrlshitru The appointment was
then made for llanishtirg, and our men
trailed McNleho, Penrose and Carey to
Htiriishurg with the detoctnphonc.
"Tho night before the convention, nt
11 p. in., Carey told our operative that
Penrose had received Usurps from the
county lenders tlitoughout the State, and
that Roosevelt delogntes were over
whelmingly In the majority, nnd that It
wns useless to spend money for a dozen
delCBates, ns they would bo of no value.
Theho operatives were still high ln the
confidence of Penrose nnd McNIchol and
Carey and their district lenders.'

JUDGES TO VISIT
UPTOWN SALOONS
Continued from I'uge tine
city wns sent to the Judges of the License
Court by mail today. They have not de
cided what action they will take.
HUMOR IN COl'RT.
Impromptu comedies were iiurcmoiis at
today'f session of the License Court. In
cidentally, the court got some Inside In
formation about how easy It Is to run
n saloon In Kensington. The Informa
tion was provided by a lawyer who was
quickly subdued by Judge Staakc's ques
tion. "Do you sHak from experience?''
Tho Rev. Asa J. Ferry was the first
victim of the jokemakers. He is pastor
of Bethany Temple Pieshyterlan Church,
53d and Spruce streets, and he headed a
delegation of business men from 52d and
Market streets protesting against the
transfer of a license Into their territory.
All tho business men wore white ribbons.
"You'll have to take that ribbon off,"
a lawyer whispered into the ear of the
clergyman. "You can't wear It In court."
Mr. Ferry removed the ribbon lnstunter,
and then started to tell tho business men
nbout It. Finally he found he had been
hoodwinked.
Cnspcr A. Helllch confided to the court
that although he lost about ?13,000 In the
sale of a saloon at 1311 Arch street, he Is
anxious to spend a little matter of H7.0CO
for tho saloon at the southeast corner of
Md and Market streets, now operated by
Timothy J. Wholcy.
DRINKING IN KENSINGTON.
The lawyer nicked by the wit of Judse
Stnnke wns Robert J. Byron, counsel for
William Gartilng. of US Master street.
Gartling Is a hosiery worker. He uonts
to get Into the saloon business, and lias
his eyo on the plnce of Samuel Fabrlcus.
"What do you know about mlxin
drinks, being u hosiery worker?" asked
Judge Ktaake.
"He don't need to know," said the law
yer. "Nobody mixes drinks In Kensing
ton. Thoy nil take whisky straight."
"I see," said tho Judge. "Do you speak
from experience?"
Tho lawyer sat down.
The practice of many saloonkeepers of
presenting small bottles of liquor as gift
to patrons was condemned by the Phila
delphia Bottlers nnd Wholesale Liquor
Dealers' Co-operative Association In a
letter to Judge Staake. He read the
communication before heurlng remon
strances against the transfer of licenses.
