Interest In the nation-wide blackmail plot
against persona of wealth who violated
the Mann white slave act promises to
hlft back to Philadelphia, following a de
cision of the Federal authorities to bring
the altered blackmailers to trial In thli
city and New York.
A long conference held at the Depart
ment of Justice at Washington yesterday
was attended by John C Knox, Assistant
"United Statio District Attorney, of New
York: Captain W. M Omey, chief of tho
Investigating Bureau of the lstorn Dl
Maton of tho department, and Frank Oar
bartno, special agent of the department In
Philadelphia, all of whom are working
on the case In this city. All tho facts were
laid before Attorney General Gregory
The Federal Government Is discriminat
ing In the matter of prosecuting alleged
violations of the Mann act, according to
Francis Fisher Kane, United States District
Attorney In this city. The act Is employed
only where there Is "such enticement as
amounts almost to coercion."
"We prosecute only In cases whero there
ts evidence of a commercial aim," said Mr.
Kane "Only a very small proportion of
the complaints that reach us are ever
taken Into court. I recollect only three
rases that have befn tried under tho Mann
act here In the three jears that I have been
District Attorney."
"Then the victims Of the blackmailers'
gang were put In fear of eomethlng that
would not happen even If they were guilty,
were they not7" Mr. Kano was asked
"You can reason that out for yourself
from what I have told you," he replied.
Following proceedings on Tuesday, when
William Butler, of 602 North Thirteenth
street, this city, reputed to be one of the
threo directing heads of the syndicate,
which has been said to have taken $1,000,
000 from wealthy persons, was held In 65,
000 ball, Olid his brother, George Butler,
released under $2000 ball, the Investigation
had temporarily halted yesterday.
William Butler, who Is detained in
Camden Jail, spent tho dav In the United
States Marshal'B office In Philadelphia. He
was visited by his wife, Mrs. Grace Butler;
his brother George, and his attorney,
Henry It. Stevenson. The two brothers
spent the entire afternoon In close converse
tlon. George was much Improved In ap
pearance since Tuesday, when he was re
leased after sex en weeks In jail on the
charge of being implicated with William
In an attempt to extort $8000 from Mrs.
Kusan G. Wlnpenny, widow of J. Bolton
Wlnpenny.
The home of the Butlers, at 002 North
Thirteenth street, does not wear an air of
prosperity. One of tho ordinary "Vacan
cies" signs on cardboard Is In a window.
The place Is one of mstery In tho neigh
borhood. Tho Butlera moved Into It two
years ago. From then until a year ago
the place, which Is declared by agents of
tho Government to have been used as a
headquarters by the members of the syndl
cate, was frequented, say" those living
nearby, by well-dressed men and wolnen,
who always came In taxlcabs.

HUGHES LAYS SIEGE
TO INDIANA'S VOTE
Makes Whirlwind Campaign for
Important Stale To Last
Three Days
LAFAYETTE, Ind , Sept 21 Charles E.
Hughes Invaded Indiana the nuton's 1916
battleground today on the third lap of his
campaign through the middle west.
Indiana, with two vice presidential and
one pres'dentlal candidate this year, and a
delicate situation as regards the llcpub.
llcan-I'rogresstve status promises to bo
a pivotal state and Hughes will deote
threo days to carry the gospel of unity and
Republicanism to Us voters.
Monon was the flrst stop and then the
pedal moved on to Lafayette, Delphi,
Decatur, Portland and Winchester.
A crowd of 500 persons greeted him at
Jtonon. He spoke for fifteen minutes from
the rear end of his private car, roundly de
nouncing tho Underwood act.
"It Is an un-American policy that does
not protect the wage of the American
worklngman," he declared. "Should this
condition continue there Is not the slightest
dOUbt that Itn Aftotfa n.111 nA.l... --I...
tlon, confusion nod serious disturbances to
the social order of the nation."
A crowd of more than 6000 awaited the
Hughes train at Lafayette. The candidate
was conducted to the veranda of the Lin
coln Club, from which many presidential
candidates have spoken to Indiana voters.
Mr. Hughes resumed his attack on the
tariff policy of the Administration In his
Lafayette speech. He evoked a great out
burst of applause when he declared for a
'protection of the rights of American work
Ingrnen and the rights of the American
nation." Particularly did Mr. Hughes lay
stress on his demand for protection to com
merce. This also was greeted with cheers.
The strenuous day will wind up with a
mass meeting at Itlchmond tonight.
Mr. Hughes has withstood the rigors of
the last two arduous dan remarkably well.
Ills throat, which gave him soma trouble
on" his first tour, has become hardened to
almost constant speaklwr and he now ex
pects little trouble.

A movement to Increase municipal rev
enues to ofTset In part anticipated salary
Increases and proposed new places will be
Inaugurated by Councils today, but even
the most optimistic of tho members are not
hopeful of avoiding a material and pro
nounccd Increase In taxes If tho city In the
futuro Is to livo up to tho pay-us-you-go
net and abandon tho plan of paving running
expenses from borrowed money.
Tho most Important pleco of legislation
dealing with tho subject of revenues, was
the bill for the revision upwnrd of nil the
water charges, both meter and fixture.
MAYOR. SMITH'S TLANS
The water rntn bill Is but the first of a
series planned with , view to Increasing
revenues, and it Is not unlikely that Mayor
Smith, in a message, will outline to the
Councllmen his plans so as to keep the
tax rate as low as posxlblo If the
planned Increased expenditures are finally
authorized.
Mayor Smith's administration is pledged
to provide sufficient revenues to meet au
thorized expenses for next year, and the
final problems Involved will occupy tho at
tention of Councils during most of the fall
and winter sessions.
It has been estimated that at least
$6,000,000 In new revenues will have to be
provided from ono source or another All
of the budgets of the vnrlous departments
will be In tho hands of Councils In the next
few weeks, and nfter Mayor Smith has
made known his schemes for Increasing, rev
enues It will bo a matter of mathematical
calculation to decide upon the tax rate that
tho really owners of the city will be called
upon to pay for 1917.
Many new obligations nro threatened In
addition to the fixed charges of jears mst.
Chairman Oaffney, of the Finance Com
mittee, will Introduce a bill nt today's ses
sion providing for Incicaxed pay for
policemen. The bill Is based upon an ap
proximate Increase In puy of fifty cents a
day for each ofllcer. Tho administration Is
also pledged to Increase the police force by
600 met;. These two actions would result
In the drain of a,n additional $1,000,000 a
year from the city treasury ,
In the Department of Public Woiks there
are a number of bureau chiefs who say that
they are losing their best men because of
the low scale of wages paid. This is par
ticularly true of the Water Bureau and
pf tho Highway Bureau No estimate of the
increases needed along this line can be made
before the flrst meeting in October, when
Councils will receive tho budgets from the
more Important departments
The one Important flnancinl measur in
Lbe hurried through Councils at this time
manes an appropriation of funds to pay
Interest and Sinking Fund charges on the
$10,000,000 portion of tho recently au
thorized loans for $114,626,000 which it is
proposed to sell this fall,
Maor Smith has signed most of tho bills
left with him by Councils nt the close of
the summer recess, but today he will aBk
the Councils to recall tho ordinance author
izing the condemnation of properties In the
Seventh Ward bounded by Naudaln nnd
Rodman and Tenth and Eleventh streets
for playground purposes so that another
block can be Included and the boundaries
extended from Naudaln to Lombard street.
He will also ask tho recall of the bill to
enlarge Iteyburn Park, already containing
ten and one-half acres, to which a strip of
200 feet in width is to be added.
Ardmore, Country Place Sold
Tho handsome- country residence of the
late Byron P. Mnulton, on Ardmore avenue,
west of County Line road, Haverford, with
about seventeen nnd one-half acres of
ground, was sold at public salo yesterday
by Samuel T. Freeman & Co. to Stacy B
Lloyd for $61,000.
