After entering Into a full dfscusston ot
these questions the replies point out that
Improved administration of ths censorship
and tho consequent decrease In the delay
t which neutral and "Innocent" mall Is
subjected should meet th demand ot the
.. United States.
' The langusge ot th United States de
mand, however, was that "only a radical
ehang In the present TJrltlsh and French
eollcy. restoring Jo the United States Its
full rlghti as a neutral rower, will satisfy
this Government" The replica make the
point that the question ot damage to Amer

et th censorship was the only practical
Issue raised In th prptt.
In assuming tho right to censor tetter

Going further, they maintain that "Im

Having established tWa.'lajiothrsls, th

for being arrested for a crime that he.

about the stolen goods and told where he
had hidden them.

TIE-UP OF SHIPPING
CAUSES BIG LOSS
U-Boat Activity Detains Cargoes
Valued at $50,000,000 in
This Port
As a result of attacks by th CJerman
submarine If-SI off the Atlantle coast lssl
Sunday shipping Interests In this city
r suffering great financial loss,
Whlls no definite figures are obtainable.
It Is estimated that lh value of cargoes being
detslnsd Is close to $10,000,000. The Interest
slone on an Investment of such an amount
Is considerable, but shipowners and char
terers are losing large sums because of the
Inactivity of the vessels. Ships ar not so
blentlful, they point out that they can be
held tip for a week without a pinch being
felt.
On of tht city's largest ship charterers
estimated that It Is costing more than 11000
for each ship thst Is being detained In this
port. There are twenty-lhre ships flying
the Urltlsh flsg either moored at wharves
or anchored th th rlter between Marcus
Hook and the HrtakWater, awaiting Sailing
orders.
Kvery stsamJhlp under Hrltlsh chsrter
wss ordered ta await further orders before
venturing out into the open sea following
the torpedoing of Ave ships off Nantucket.
No word has been forthcoming when the
order will be lilted and It Is probable tlmt
none of the ships will b permitted to sail
until Sunday or Monday.
Most of the ships are losded and hae
received thslr ctearsnew pspers. Two have
mounted twelve-pound rapid nrera for de
tente against submarine attack.
Vesvels are crowding this port as a result
of the tie-up. If many more aro forced
to remain here It Is feared In shipping cir
cles there will be n Bcarc ly of anchorage
and docking prl lieges.
Large shipments ot ammunition are In
cluded In the supplies for the Allies which
nrs being held up One ot the cargoes la
alued at close to $5,000,000 This ship

PASTOR PROMISES COP
TO JOIN VICE HUNT
CenllnuMl from I'sse On ,
Superintendent Iloblnron and Captain
Tempest In such action."
The minister said he had been misquoted,
nnd had never said Fifty-second street was
tho worst street irt 'West Philadelphia or
thst thirty rtsorts flourished with police
connivance In Its lclnlty.
"What I did say,1' he explained, "was
that charocters of n different typo aro now
flocking to Weit Philadelphia and that there
were a few disorderly houses located In dif
ferent sections. I did not ssy the polcel
winked at violations of tho taw but I did
say It was up to tho police to act, and if
they failed, then the citlsens should get
together and do something the police had
failed to do. I do not know there are
thirty such places In full blast: my Inform
ation came from a prominent real estato
operatr In this sectln."
SHIELDS INFORMANT
"Who was your Informant?" nsked tho
lieutenant. The clergyman refused to name
the sourco of his Information, declaring-It
had come to him In confidence. Ho prom
ised to visit the real estate man In a
few days nnd ask permission to reveal his
name.
Tho Hev. Mr. Ferry then "said ho knew
of a dozen resorts operating In West Phila
delphia, but when urged to reveal their
locations qualified the number as not qulto
n dozen, but a few, "Let me have tho
addresses of those you know," asked the
lieutenant "And, though this Is my day
off, I will don my uniform, go to th
station house and send my special officers,
and, It necessary, take men from their
beats to investigate."
The lieutenant's suggestion led the
clergyman to explain that h waa not criti
cizing tha police in hi remarks, but trying
to stir enthusiasm. "What I did say ot
Fifty-second street was that If women ot a
certain type were not eliminated I feared
it would become a second Eighth and Vine
streets," ho said.
Tha Invitation to accompany the lieuten
ant was then accepted. "That appeals to
me as a splendid Idea,' 'said Mr. Ferry. "I
will report to the station house in a tew
days and we can go out n ths evening and
I will point out tho houses and characters
I mean. I have been In West Philadelphia
nine years and conditions are growing
worse, but were never so bad as today."
"COMMUNITf FnirjHTENBD"
When quesined further on tho subject of
his address which was delivered at a din
ner at the Chapel of the Mediator, Fifty
first and Spruco Btreets, Mr, Ferry said, "the
vice situation Is so bad that the community
la thoroughly frightened at tho results
Which will come out of It unless it Is
checked." He said further that to the fear
IS added utter discouragement becauso of
the attitude taken by tho police, and for
this attitude he blames ths men at the top
of the city government
"It is so bad," he said, "that wa hardly
know which way to mov. Th West Phil
adelphia Ministers' Association Is going to
get together shortly and plan ta do some
thing. Something simply must be done; It
can't go pn thr way It Is, whsther or not
the police continue to wink at It"
Complaints to the police had accomplished
nothing, said the Dethany pastor. At the
Fifty-fifth and Pine streets station he had
been told that the police could do nothing
because even If they mado arrests they
could not get convictions In the court
"THE POLICE KNOW, TOO"
"Now what I'm fighting," said Doctor
Ferry, "Is this attitude.
"If you see men going In and out of a
house all night, hear their rioting Inside,
you know pretty well what's going on with
out being there. The police know, too. When
th complaints got too bad the polios suc
ceeded In putting a stop to the noise, but
the other traffic went on Just the asms. If
they csn stop mere disorderly conduct thsy
can stop something worse if they will."
Doctor Ferry said that with tho situa
tion as It Is, It seem to be up to private
citizens to prove the violation of th law,
"The police art too disinterested," he con
tinued. No WtUi Philadelphia cltlsen Doctor
Ferry said, Is Ignorant of the vicious con
ditions In th neighborhood contiguous to
Fifty-second street, It Is a matter of such
common knowledge, h aald, that for tha
city government to maintain It's attitude
I as ridiculous as It Is shameful.
Doctor Ferry said that th president of
th West Philadelphia Ministers' Associa
tion, the Hev. Dr- Phillip 10, Osgood, would
soon assemble the association to find "a
way out of th present mess."
IIOBINSON DENIES CHATtOH
Superintendent of Police Robinson said
bluntly that the lie v. Dr. Vtny did not
know what lie was talking about "I know
that no auch condition as charged exists
In West Philadelphia," th superintendent
said. "It It did, Captain Tempest would
have Informed m of It long ago, and I

PHILADELPHIA JACK" O'BRIEN
IN BOUT WITH SHAKESPEARE
Former Pugilistic Champion
Turns His Talent to the
Classic and Will Attack
Role of Charles theWres
tler, in "As You Like it"
Goes Into Training for Dra
matic Debut and Makes
Appreciative Comment on
Character of the Athlete
He Is to Represent.
('PHILADELPHIA. JACIC 0'UHIUN,who
JL ha downed many champions of the
prize ring, n6w will wrestle with Bbske
speare. He expects a stormy session; that
Is, as far ns he Is concerned, for the pugi
list admitted today that It has been some
time sine he mingled with the classics.
The event wilt take place on October IS,
when Jack will enact or ''attack," to use
his own words the part of Charles the
Wrestler In "As Tou Like It"
The seen will be In the Academy of
Music Will thetehades of Booth and Iter
rett which no doubt hover In the wings
of this famous playhouse, mutter their
disapproval nt th thought a pugilist toy
ing with Shakespeare 1 Is It possible after
all these years?
This It giving Jack much concern.
He has gone Into training for the task
as he has never trained before. He Is learn
ing to roll his It's to the proper
Shskespearean twist and also prolong his
S's And then, with a touch of the
sepulchral In his genial tonss and a dash
of tho conservative In his demesnor. Jack
thinks he wilt be greatly Improved. For be
It known that even wrestlers In the times
recorded by the Immortal bsrd were ot
gentle mien, despite their brawn.
As the pugilist has quite a library In
his home out on Powelton avenue, he will
be able to get aome "Inside dope" on the
part while resting between rehearsals.
Like many others who have attacked
Shakespeare, Jack Is bothered by the
punctuation. Ills part fairly reeks with
somtcolona and commas, which, ot course,
take one's breath as they travel through a
paragraph.
"A PHETTr GOOD SOIIT OF QUY"
"I understand that this wrestler that I'm
going to play," said Jack today, "beat all
comers. It seems he was a pretty good
sort of a guy at that, for he goes to tha
brother ot the fellow lie's going to wrestle
with and tells him ho better call It off. And
then you can just take It from me that this
other Shakespearean wrestler has got It all
over the athletes of today, for he uses
poison when other tricks fall. I'll get a
half-nelson on this part, and If I don't
down It that way I'll use the collar and
elbow."
A faint Idea of what Jack has to strug
gle with may be obtained by a glance at
some ot the lines ot this Shakespearean
wrestler.
Charles announces the banishment of the
old Duke by his younger brothtr and that he
came to wrestle before the new Duke.
In addressing Oliver, one of the sons ot
Sir Rowland de Hoys, Jack has his longest
speech. Just listen:
Marry, do I, sir; and I came to
acquaint you with a matter. I am
given, sir, secretly to understand that
your jounger brother Orlando hath a
disposition to como In disguised against
me to try a fall. Tomorrow, sir, I
wrestle for my credit; and lie thnt
escapes me without soma broken limb
shall acquit him well.
Your brother Is but young and ten
der, and for your love I would be loth
to foil him, as I must for my own honor
If hs comes In; therefore, out of my
loe to you I came hither to acquaint
you withal that either you might stay
htm from his Intendment or brook

such disgrace well as he shall run
Into, In that It Is a thing ot his own
search and altogether against my will.
UNAPIIAID OF TIUCKS.
And then the wrestler hears that Orlando
Is a trickster nnd doesn't wrestle according
to Hojle. In fact, Oliver, who Is a very
sincere sort of person, tells Charles that
Orlando may try to get him with arscnlo
or rat polBon or drop an unfriendly rock
on his head while he, Charles, Is asleep.
Of course, this warning Is given In th
classy language ot the Ilard of Avon.
Uut docs Charles weaken? Not much.
Throwing out his client like an athlete In
the magazines, ha expounds thuswisa:
I am heartily glad I came hither to
you. If he come tomorrow I will gla
idm his payment If he ever go alone
Again I'll never wrestle for prlzo more;
and so fJod keep your worship.
Thereupon Charles exits gracefully.
TERCENTENARY SOCIETY SPONSOR
The production In which Jack will appear
will be given under 4he auspices of the
Tercentenary Society, the active dramatic
branch of tho Catholic Play Movement The
organization was founded under the aus
pices of Cardinal Farley for the purpose of
directing Catholics to the patronage ot clean
shows.

organization by "whltellstlng" worth-while
ehows Instead of "blacklisting" productions
ot thetftublous class.
Officers of tho Tercentenary Society will

DIVE KEEPER USED PERISCOPE
TO GUARD AGAINST POLICE
Chester Man Convicted
Charges
on Three
MEDIA, Oct. 13 JohnJT. Leary, a for
mer saloonkeeperjif Chester) Charles Hen
derson and Joseph McCann7also of Chester,
have been convicted of selling liquor with
out a license, on Sunday and to minors,
and with keeping' n disorderly house. Hen
derson and McCann were employed by
Leary as bartenders.
When charging the Jury, Judge John
son said tbat many years ago Leary'a
place, at Fifth and Howell streets, Chester,
was a licensed hotel, but that the license
was taken away because of the manner In
which the place was conducted. "Now tha
place Is under fire again and It Is aston
ishing that such a place can be maintained
at all. This place Is Just as bad as you
can possibly get It, and It Is Impossible to
get It worse," continued the court
Judge Johnson Informed the Jury that It
was Impossible for Mayor McDowell and
Chief ot Police Vance to get Information
as to the conduct of Leary's place, because
the evidence tended to show that Leary
was always on the lookout and only those
could enter the place whom Lesry could
trust For this reason, It was necessary
to have the place Investigated by outside
deteotlves, Judge Johnson also referred
to a lookout box or periscope, which wss
used by Leary for the purpose ot watching
and keeping from his place all unwelcome
visitors.
