Secretary Writes to Philadelphians His
Position Will Soon Be Denned
There was real rejoicing at tho Pennsyl
vania headquarters of the Congressional
Union for Woman SufTrage, 313 Hale Rulld.
lag, this morning when Mrs. Hnrry Lowen-
"purg, state chairman, received a reply to a
night letter that she had sont to Charles 13.
Hughes, Ropubllrau nominee for President.
Mrs. Loweuburg In her dispatch nnd
urged Mr. Hughes to "Indorse publicly tho

OUSTED PASTOR FACES
ACCUSERS AT CHESTER
Trial of Rev. Egidius Kellmayer
Delayed by Lack of
Stenographer
Search for a public stenographer to record
tho proceedings delayed for a tlmo today
the trial of the Rev. Hgldlus Kellmayer, de
posed minister of Uethany Presbyterian
Church, Chester.
The accused clergyman, whose absence
last week caused postponment of the. case,
was on hand early this morning. So were
the other principals, while many women
wero among those who assembled In West
minster Hall. In the Wltherspoon Building,
where the hearings are to be held.
The preliminary organization of the eccle
siastical court was effected without delay.
The defendant preacher was called to plead
to the charges of Insubordination, schism
and conduct unbecoming a minister. He
entered a plea of not guilty to all three
charges. The Rev, W. R. Huston, of Clif
ton Heights, and the Rev, George L. Van
Allen, of Rutledge, were appointed to serve
as counsel for the Chester Presbytery,
which Is the prosecutor In the case. Mr,
Kellmayer announced that he would act
ai his own counsel.
Most of the spectators present today are
members of Bethany congregation or are
follower! of the deposed pastor, who are
, auenasnis ai ine tent meeings conducted
'by him directly opposite the church from
J which he Is suspended.
One of the accusations against the de
posed pastor Is that he defies the edict of
the commission which ordered his removal
and refuses to stop preaching within a
Thalf mile of the Chester church. There is
J no aerlous charge of moral misconduct In
'the case, according to officials of the Prea-
tytery.

City Garbage Situation
and Inspection Plans
INVESTIGATION of Philadelphia
garbage conditions began this
morning.
Orders given by Director of Pub'
lie Works George E. Datosman and
Chief Highway Director William II.
Conncll.
Extra workers put on the job to
inYcstigatc in districts from which
complaints come.
Attempt will be made to obtain
legislation at Harrisburg to do away
with private collectors.
Complnints -solicited by the De
partment of Public Works, ns this is
tho only way of finding out condi
tions, Ptnn Reduction Company, which
is paid $375,000 by the city to col
lect the garbage, resents encroach
ment of "private" collectors.
An Investigation of Philadelphia garbage
conditions began this morning when orders
went forth from the offices of Director of
Public Works (Jcorgc l& Dntesmnn nnd
Chief of tho Highway Bureau William II.
Conncll, directing special men to go to tho
districts from which complaints have como
nnd find out exactly what the trouble Is.
and why tho garlmge collections are not
mndo ns they should be.
The city pays $375,000 to the Penn Re
duction Company to collect tho garbage
from the homes of Philadelphia. This com
pany, according to Chief Conncll, resents
tho Intrusion of the private concerns be
cause tho Penn Reduction men never know
whether tlio streets they aro expected to
visit havo already been visited, nnd ns a re
sult the cltlclcncy of tho Reduction Com
pany's cmplojes Is lessened.
"Vou see It Is this way," said Chief Con
nell today. "The Penn Reduction Company
Is paid to do the work, and It want to do
It. As It Is now, there aro private collectors
who mako the round of the city so-so.
Sometimes they take tho garbngo on one
street, sometimes on another. Then, too,
wlym there Is a lot of garbage like there Is
during July nnd August, tho private col
lectors take only what they want. Thoy
leave tho rest.
"That means that the Penn Reduction
Company wngons nre sent on streets where
thero Is no garbage, and at other times on
tho same street there Is garbago waiting to
be collected. Then, you sec, tho men think
that It has been collected. They think It
hns been done by these prlvnto concerns.
Wo have no way of knowing whether the
collections have been mado or not until wo
get the complnints from the public. That Is
why wo solicit and want people to let us
know Just how things are In their respective
neighborhoods.
"The Penn Reduction Company also re
sents this intrusion," added Chief Conncll.
"Tho more garbage it collects, the more
money It enn make In the end, becauso It
makes tho garbngo Into cold crenm and
soap and other articles and then bcsidcH
sells the drJcd garbage left for fertilizer."
Chief Connell says that at present tho
city administration Is considering steps by
which it can get tho proper legislation to do
away with the "private collector," who, ho
says, is tho root of the trouble.
In the center of the cfty there are col
lections of garbage taken ench day by tho
Penn Reduction Company. It Is necessary
on account of the congested districts nnd
tho mony hotels nnd restaurants. Most of
the suburbs, except Oermantawn, Chestnut
Hill and parts of Frankford, havo collec
tions dally. These have four collections a
week.
