Collins himself was then ordered to the

who wished ahd wotked to become a finan

"i characterise the said Harry C. Dennis
as a confessed . hypocrite, a blsckmsller

He termed Dennis In direct langusgs as
a man, "Infinitely- more dangerous than
,tho outlawed wdmsn of the streets or the
bold and hsrdened crlmlnsl." rt said ha
was "cpvctoUs; scheming, wth Itching pslm

TKIjLS OF DKNNIH'fl VISIT
Olbbone'y then told In detail of "Dennis
visit to njm Dennis, he said, had pro
fessed his deslro to get away from the
plsce "when a man comes along and buys
my place."
"VI. Hr tomorrow," lie said Dennis
continual!, "I'm through with this business
Just us soon as I can get rid of my
Property. For eight years I've been doing
all the work In that neighborhood to keep
Out saloons, but I'm tired of being the
goat for the churqtt people out there, A
tot of them tire flWrltes anyhow, and
they dont appreciate anything any one
does, and t am tired of them. They do
nil tho talking and I do nil the work.
Kcceiitly I was a delegate to a local option
meeting, attended by delegates appointed
b. ?mmb'r ?f "VVest Philadelphia churches.
At that meeting I wSs appointed chairman
of the Local Option Legislative Commit
tee. In a few days twopreachers wanted
me to call a meeting of my committee and
Indorse two gang candidates for tho Irtgls
laturo. "I refused to do so until an olllclal of
the Local Option League nsked me to, and
then 1 did J but It Just shows what some
hypocrites sonie preachers nre. and I have
had all tho experience with them I want.
As Boon as I can sell mv nronrlvt'll mnv
becatiso I'vo had enough and nm through;
but there'll never be a saloon orl that cor
ner If I can prevent It until tho owner buys
my property, too. I'm going to fight any

cause I'm not going to lose, two thousand
or twenty-five hundred dollars In depre

agitated from fifty to sixty per cent
of all tho opposition In every remonstrnnco
filed against that corner, and It 1 didn't
stir uj the remonstrance thtro wouldn't
be much of a fight made. When n man
comes along and buys my place I'll cease
my opposition, and not before."
DKAt. It I'llOPfiltTt
"I tried to mAke a deal to sell my prop
erty to Ed Trainer three years ago, when
hu was looking for a property for some opd
who wanted to establish a saloon In that
same neighborhood. I nsked him J8060
for my property; ho offered $I00. Hut
before theithlng went through Trainer died,
and then It was alt off. Then Ilutke de
cided he wanted to pen on that corner,
and I entered Into Ah arrangement with
him. through an ngent. to sell my place
for 15760; but he refused to put up mors
than (SO for teh option, and I wanted a
thousand, so we couldn't come to any agree,
ment. I wasn't going l oremove my orlpo
o.tlon for JP0, and then. If the transfer
was refused, have him backdown on his
agreemont to buy my ptaco, ton. In such
event It Would, become known I had sold
my place to a liquor dealer and I would
have tq move and still have the property
on my hands. If ho had put up n thoussnd
dollars the Investmetn would be enough to
compel him to buy my house, transfer or
no transfer.
"I know that neighborhood Is changing.
Booner or Inter n license will be granted
there to nomo one Hut they'Vc got to tnke
In my place first. I'm out to sell that
property, and I'm going to sell It before
anybody gels n license for that corner."
Olbboney, after telling of the visit and
story, said ha had never heard a tale
"so braxenly immoral, bold and brutal."
So nmaxlng was this revelation of Olb
boney thai the spectators looked from Den
nis to Olbboney and then back again until
the court announced that tho rasa would
be hold under advisement and they left
the room,
