' The pathetic wall of an Infant broke tbe tension In a crowded courtroom this morn ing after Ida niehl. In an almost Inaudible voice, had pleaded "not guilty" bofore ludge Jpseph P. Rogers to tho accusation of having murdered her sweetheart, Ed mund C. Hnuptfuhrer. on May 22. 1915. because he failed to keep his promise to marry her. rha infant was Ida's G-months-old daughter Mary. She hugged the baby to her breast. Ida was simply attired In a pink shirtwaist, a blue skirt and black shoes. The girl was Impassive until As sistant District Attorney Maurer began de scribing tho nature of the crime of which she 13 accused. Then she wept silently with bowed head, the tears falling on the up turned face of her baby. The courtroom was packed with curious, who bent forward .eagerly to look at tho When Bhe was arraigned her lips barely moved as she framed tho words "Not guilty " Tho words were not audible In the rear of tho courtroom, and even her counsel. Congressman John R. K. Scott, had to bend his head to hear her reply. The courtroom was still, etery person refraining from movement and conversation, so that they would not lose an Incident of the dramatic moment. After Ida had nlmoit whispered a d-nlal of the crime charged against her, her baby waved Its tiny hands and began to cr'- With a pathetic little caress the mother tried to soothe the child. Some Idea of the ead position of the girl seemed to reach the minds of the spectators, for tears crept to many eyes, and even some of the men turned their faces to hide their emotion. The Jury box was filled quickly. 'It was soon apparent t.hat the purpose of Con gressman Scott was to choose' men with families, preferably men with unmarried daughters The flt, four Jurors were elderly men. all with qualifications satis factory to the defense. Congressman Scott passed quickly over young men. It Is assumed that Congressman Scott se eded men with families because he be lieved that such men could understand and sympathize with his client.

Winston Says Commit tee of Seventy Will Invite Co-operation of Other Big Bodies TOO BIG FOR ONE, HE SAYS The proposal of the Committee of Sev enty to Inaugurate a movement for a new charter for this city will be laid beforo a central representative committee composed of members of a number of Philadelphia business and civic organizations before apy further steps are taken to draw a tentative draft of tho new charter. Thla was made known today by John C. "Vlnston, chairman of the Committee of Seventy and chairman also of the sulicom nlttecs empbwered to draw up the tentative Irnft of the proposed charter. A mcetlnc of this subcommittee, Mr. Win ston said, will bo held tomorrow, and nt that time it will be decided what Philadel phia orsnnliatlons will be asked to name representatives to the central committee. The project. Mr. Winston explained, Is too Important for one organization to un dertake alone and for that reason It Is planned to form a central committee, truly representatives of all Interests In this city. The subcommittee which will arrange for the organization of thla central committee consists of Mr. Winston, chairman; George W. Norrls, Thomna Raeburn White, John Hampton Barnes and Charles L.. McKeehan. SOME PROPOSALS. The proposals which have already been considered by the subcommittee as part of their final report nre: First. Abolition of the position of City Solicitor as an elective odlce. The committee may lojk with favor on a plan to make this official an appolntea of the Mayor This Is hoped to avoid factional antagonism letween these offi cials and to make for sympathy be tween the executive and legal depart ments of the city. Second. Abolition of the position of Assessor as absolutely unnecessary. Tho commljjee will probably report that the work of these 1200 municipal offi cers can be performed by the registrars and their salaries saved. Third Possible abolition of the County Commissioners as unnecessary officials. The committee may report that the duties of these officials can easily be transferred to the Hoard of Heglstratlon Commissioners. Fourth. A single-chamber Council. The Committee Is said to believe that Councils, modeled on the plan of tho National Congress, hamper and retard' rather than aid, good legislation. It may recommend 'a new body, with a membership of 10 or 15, either elected at large or by districts. NOT A "RIPPER" The subcommittee announced yesterday that It wanted to emphasize the fact that the legislative program was not to b construed as a "r)pper." It also asserted that the legislation would not be designed td aid or Injure any faction In municipal politics. Tho entlro movement is simply to bring the city charter up to date. The Bullitt bill In held hy Inn commlttM to have ben an exrelUnt civic measure nt the time cf Its adoption Since that time, however, municipal legislation has under- Hear the New Hawaiian Orchestra the Garden on the Roof too feet above the street Hotel Adelphia fho gathering placo for men of af fairs and women of fathloa Cozy and comfortabU In any weather DAN3ANT frfwt rulla a4 Snrl am Mtem ?

Mayor Smith said that the matter of changing a city chatter was too Important for rash opinions, "I would want to know everything connected with this plan before I undertook to make any observations at all," said the Mayor. "I have read the story that the Committee of Seventy would seek to modify the charter by supplant ing the Bullitt bill, but It Is not definite enough to give me an adequate Idea of tho proposed legislation. I shall have to wale comment until things nre lucid enough for mo to digest." Attorney Gereral Brown was In the same frame of mind. "I have given tho matter no thought or consideration." he said. "It Is Impossible to give an offhand opinion on such a pregnant matter. For that reason I will not discuss It In any way." Congressman Vare said that when the next Legislature met It would be time enough to discuss any measure such as the proposed changes In the city charter. Canadian Genera! Killed LONDON, June ID.
