husband sesterday ended the lesal tug-of-war
between Mr. rjtna Cary Sheflleld,
writer of verse and novel and creator of
the dream hero with wavy hair," and
her husband, Justus Shedleld, lawyer.
Vice Chancellor Vlvlnn Lewis awarded
a dlvorco to Mr. Sheffield on the ground
of desertion. Custody of narbarn, 8
J ears old, was given to Mrs. Sheffield.
Mrs. Shemctd failed In Her counter suit,
charging extreme cruelty.
After hearing the argument of her
counsel, J. Hansbury Callaghan, Vivo
Chancellor Lewis Bald:
"I am compelled to nnd In favor of the
petitioner nnd to award him a divorce.
Tho cross-pctlttoner hns attempted to
show that she suffered Indignities from
her husband nnd was subjected to unnat
ural treatment.
"The court does not find sufficient el
dencc to sustain the cross-petitioner. She
has disproved her case from her own lips.
Despite her testimony that she wanted to
flee from htm to escapo unnatural treat
ment, she admits that sho had him fol
lowed by detectives and that sho herself
went to his New York rooms early one
morning In the hope of catching him with
another womnn.
"It Is hardly consistent that a womnn
who wns endeavoring to escape her hus
band would follow him or force herself
Into his presence."
DRY VICTORY IN WEST PHILLY

sentiment of that community favors turn
ing the S. J. Cunningham oyster saloon
Into a liquor saloon to be run by John
F. Graham, now of tho Hotel Jamison, Is

It Is such will be the verdict of Judges
Stanko and Patterson, sitting In the Li
cense Court.
When Grnlinm nsked for the transfer of
his license to West Philadelphia the court
was unwilling to Impose another saloon
on that neighborhood unless tho neigh

business men. Grnham, however, has
not lost contldcnce for a minute that ho

'BILLY' SUNDAYG0ES
A-VISITING TO THE
I. J. STATE HOUSE
Governor Fielder Is Not "At.
Home," So Chief Clerk Shows
1 Evangelist and "Ma"
About the Capitol
"COSIEST EVER," HE SAYS
THENTON, N. J., Jan, 13.-"I3tlly" Sun
day Visited the State House today to call
on Governor Fielder. The executive wns
not at the Capitol, so "nilly" was shown
around tho executive offices by John J.
Farrell, chief cterk.
"These quarters are the cosiest I have
seen In any Capital building I ever vis
ited," declared the evangelist, "That's
because this Is a Democratic administra
tion," responded Farrell, who Is an ardent
member of that political faith.
Accompanying Sunday was "Ma," sev
eral members of their party nnd somo
newspaper men.
Last night "Billy" hurled an Impassioned
challenge nt his mallgners as he addressed
an audience of 10.000, representing largely
the business women of the ctty.s
His first challenge rang out when he
had accepted a large cluster of white
chrjsanthemums from the employes of a
local mercantile establishment. He knew,
he said, tho gift wns representative of
tho lovo and confidence of those who
mode It. With quickly changing man
ner, ho contrasted the offering with one
received nt the Sunday residence last
night, when a welt-dressed man appeared
at the back door and left a box con
taining "a present for Mr. Sunday."
BOTTLES OF UEEIt IN BUNDLE.
When the evening meal was finished
the Sunday party opened the box, whtch
contntned a number of bottles of a well
known brnnd of beer.
"Tho next thtna you Know," shouted
Sunday, "some one wilt be making an
affidavit that ho delivered beer at my
house. I Just want jou to know what
kind of dogs thcro nre, but I'll expose
the hounds at any cost."
Sundny declared It was hard to be ma
ligned, lied about, vllllfied nnd threat
ened throughout tho land. "But when my
race Is run," he added, "and I look Into
tho faco of Christ nnd Jesus says, 'BUI,
this was tho reason,' I shall be satis
fied." CONVERTS' ttEADY RESPONSE.
"Blltv's" call for converts to declare
themselves last night mot with a readier
response than usual. A well-known mer
chant wns the first to make the declara
tion. Hardly had he shaken hands -vlth
Sundny than a group of three girls from
one of tho factories pushed their way
through the aisles nnd took seats In front
of tho platform.
Tho appeals or "Billy" brought con
verts by ones nnd twos and fours from
every part of the great tabernncle.
"Billy" pleaded with those who are
Christians to bring forward those who
nre not, and the seats ot the penitents
soon filled.
"Are jou a Christian?" asked Mr. Bun
day of a man sitting In the front row.
"Yes," enmo the response.
"Well, don't sit there like a bump. Get
up nnd got some one else I" wns the shnrp
command. The final count showed 216
trail-hitters for the evening, the largest
record at n single meeting during tho
local campaign.

CUT IN TRANSIT FUND
SEEN IN NEW LOAN
Mayor Has Other Projects That
Will Be Given Prior
Consideration

ill
Mini
PHILADELPHIA is an ideal
city in which to use Electric
Vehicles. Our great mileage
of asphalt paving, in combination
with practically no heavy grades,
permits the operation of motor
trucks and passenger cars under
the most favorable circumstances.
It doesn't make any difference about
the weather snow, ice or sunshine
winter or summer the Electric Vehicle
is always doing its work and doing it
more quickly, expeditiously and ect
nomically than horse-drawn vehicles or
gasoline motor cars.
We shall be glad to furnish full details
as to rates and charging facilities, or es
timates concerning the cost of
operating one vehicle or
a fleet of
vehicles.
What provision for rapid transit will
bo Included lh the permanent municipal
loan, the tentative plans for which nre
dally a subject of discussion between
Mayor Smith and members ot the Finance
Committee df Councils, was a question
that those who have taken part In loan
conferences refused to discuss today.
In the absence of any head for the City
Transit Depnftment no final decision on
this most Important subject Is likely to
be reached, but It Is generally admitted
that a material reduction , will bo mndo
from the allowances mado for both tran
sit and port Improvements In the llt-fnte
96.00O,000 loan.
Departmental heads and financiers who
hao attended the various cortferences are
not willing to venture any prediction as
to tho site of tho next loan, and tho first
definite announcement mndo by Mayor
Smith Is that he menus to have Included
In tho next loon l,0O0.W) for tho new art
museum to be erected on Fnlrmount Hill.
This is an Increase otcr the allowance In
tho old loan nnd Is 31,000,000 more than
tho original estlmnte-
If Senator Vnre has his way, over
11.000,000 will bo Included In tho loan for
t
the Improvements throughout South
Philadelphia He has urged tho Mayor to
make provision Tor several projects not
Included In the 115,000,000 bill. A big In
create In the Parkway Item Is expected,
as It Is gencrnlly admitted that the
$2,000,000 In tho old loan will prove alto
gether Inadequate In view of the demands
of property owners to be paid promptly
for lands taken by the city.
With Increases next to certain, for the
Art Museum, tho Parkway and a number
of other schemes In which Mayor Smith
has ovlnced particular Interest, the Items
for such Important permanent projects as
transit nnd port Improvements are mat
ters for conjecture only at this time.
The Major has repeatedly declared him
self In favor of the early completion ot
tho Broad street subway and the Frank
ford Elevated. If ho favors the starting
of early work on any other portions of
tho Taylor pla' he has been very careful
to keep secret his desires. As present
loans already authorized will provide In
a large measure tor these two projects.

It is characteristic of Atlantic City that
the first tip last night that Btough was
