Blander suits brought by prominent men of
Hazloton, each of whom sues for 19,000
damages. ,
The- casa called wns that In which "VI1
' Ham J. Cutlen, Councilman, Is tho plain
tiff. The accusation liecnuso of which he
seeks to recover la that mado by Mr. Stouzh
In June, 1914, when. In nddrosnlng an audi
ence of 6000 In tho Hazleton tabernacle, ho
said that William J. Cullen, John I-'lerro.

Frledlander, county nsseBsor. wcro .the foui
men wholly rcsponslblo for tho existence of
vice conditions In tho mountain city. Tim
ult has long passed tho Btag of ordinary
interest and by .Stimuli and his friends Is
looked upon an a light of tho saloon against
tho church.
Stough admitted on 'tha stand having
made, ns the plaintiff charges, tho following
statements In a sermon:
"Harry Jacobs Is tho man who runs your
city. Do you know htm? Ho runs the
Arnold and Pllscn Tclm breweries. Ho Is
general manager and ho Is one of the bosses
that runs Jim Harvey, tho Mayor and things
-' down at tho City Hall. Ho runs tho wholo
bunch down there
"Big Dill Cullen Is nnothor boas. Ho Is
called tho Commissioner of Public Safety,
whatever that means. He tolls saloon men
when It Is safo to run
"I will tell you another, one mora of tha
bosses who runs this city. I.lttlo John
Florro, fcar-o, fcar-o, they fear him; no,
they don't. Flerro, that'B It.. He's the Twelfth
Ward boss, tho man who runs two saloons
and who brings things through for license
through booza and beer, though, and not
through water llko tho other 'fcar-o'.
Tho fourth Is Max Frledlander. tho
wholesale liquor dealer. I want to lay It
down that If It were not for Flerro, Cul
len, Jacobs and Frlcdlander thero would
not bo a disorderly houso open In this city
tonight. If It wcro not for them there
would not bo a saloon open after midnight.
If It were not for them not n saloon would
daro to open oh Sunday. There would not
bo a slot machine or gambling den or a
poker game In Hazleton tomorrow night
If It wero not for theso four.
"I lay the moral condition of Hazleton
and tho vicious things hero at tha feet of
these four. Let them take up tho gauntlot.
I have thrown it down. I charge them
with being responsible for the conditions
here, and I say they are tho real mayor

UNION CASUALTY

Wood, "Insurance .Wizard,"
Prepares Answer to
6'Neil Attack
TO EXAMINE WITNESSES
Tho answer of the Onion Casually In
surance Company, Third nnd Walnut
streets, ono of tho Insurance companies
,taken over by the Consolidated Investment
company, whose Assets, according to Stato
Jnsurnnco Commissioner J. Denny O'Noll.
consists of blood-colored mahogany furni
ture and piles of handsomely engraved green
certificates, may bo (lied In tho Dauphin
County Court at Hnrrlsburg tomorrow.
Hearing on tho application for receiver
In tho Union Casualty Insuranco case has
been set for December 19. Attorneys for
Lyndon 1). Wood, "InsUranca wizard," aro
at work today on the answer. Tho hearing
In tho Pension Mutual Llfo Insuranco case
will be held December 18.
State Insurance Commissioner O'N'cll In
conferring with tho otllco of tho Attorney
Oencral In Ilarrlsburg, going over tho re
ports of examine relating to tho affairs
of tho two companies.
It Is probable that several witnesses wilt
bo subpenaed by Commissioner o'Nell for
the hearing when tho nffalrs of tho Pension
Mutual will bo threshed out. Under the
laws of the Comrs-mwoalth, Commissioner
O'Nell has the power to call any person
who, he thinks, can throw light In any
Insurance scandal. Much speculation exists
as to the Identity of tho wltncsscH who
may bo called.
Wood, who yestorday announced that his
guns wore ready for action, arrived In
town today -from Harrlsburg. Ho said that
ho was satisfied with yesterday's outcome,
"I am llko n fighting king who fights
his enemies when they are trying to do
throno him," was all that AVood would
say.
An Interesting plcco of literature on file
In tho offices of Commissioner O'Nell came
to light today In the shapo of a pamphlet,
entitled "To tho men nnd women of
America." This piece of lltcraturo was
found among a lot of dust-covered papers
dealing with Wood's operations.
Undor dato of October 13, 10H, Wood
wrote to former Insuranco Commissioner
Charles Johnson that ho was sending the
pamphlet to Insurance "prospects." Ho
speaks of tho Pension Mutual as being tho
only Instrument through which tho poor
n.u .po,.' avol(1 "Pending tho remainder
of their lives In tho poorhouse.
The pamphlet reads a follows:
"To tho Men and Womc-n of America:
"How? Uy an old ago pension.
,. "It,.is ns certnln ai a Government bond.
It will protect your ago In tho only sure
way. It will give you an Income from the
day when your earning power falls to the
day when your eyes closo for tho last
time. It will rcmovo nil doubt ns to tho
manner In which tho latter days of your

It makes you as Independent ut eighty as

something?
.No one wants to bo dependent upon
others, however dear they may bo ; however
willing they may bo; however able they
may be. Thero Is only ono suro way to
prevent It and that Is by nn old ago pen
slon. "No ono wants to go to tho poorhouse.
There Is only ono suro way to prevent It,
and that Is by nn old age pension.
"No ono wants to worry In his old days.
There is only one sure way to prevent It
and that Is by nn old nco nenslon. - '
"Kvery one wants to be suro of a happy
caro-freo old age. Thero Is only ono wny
to be suro of It. nnd that Is by providing
against everything which will prevent It by
taking out now sufllclent protection ngulmtt
thoso things In tho form of an old age
pension.
"Your llrat duty la to your family. Pro.
tect them as well as you can.
"Your second duty Is to yourself. It Is
Just as the first, nnd should bo performed
Immediately after tho first.
."Don't delay It any moro than you woula

"There Is only one company In America
from which an old ago pension can be

CONGRESS FACED BY BIG
LEGISLATIVE PROGRAM
Vill Have to Sit nt Night to
Complete Schedule df final
Session
WASHINGTON, Nov. 28. Congress must
burn tho midnight oil prodigally If It would
finish Its labors on schedule at noon March
t, In the opinion of many early congres
sional arrivals today.
The mere routlno will consume a long
while, leavliic; but lltllo tlmo for the rail
road labor legislation, food embargo ques
tion and other major legislation destined
to make the closing days of the sixty-fourth
session notable. Republicans frankly say
they do not believe everything can be
squeezed Into the nllAtted sp.ico, and they
.nro willing that much shAll hang fire, since,
they argue, they will have moro power in
the Congress that begins December. 1817.
Leaders estimated that virtually thirteen
weeks will bo consumed In army, navy and
other regular yearly and "regular special
appropriation bills. This will leave a scant
month for other measures of wldo Impor
tance. If the Supremo Court erases tho Adamson
bill from tho statute books, Congress ex
pects presentation of another eight-hour
law There nro additions to It contem
plated, nt any rato, and the compulsory In
vestigation before striking bill will bo a
storm center.
Tho big sensational scrap of tho whole
session, however, will come from tho food
embargo measures If theso aro pressed as
now planned. A row, equaling or surpass
ing that over tho McLcmoro armed ship bill,
Is anticipated.
Tho conservation group plans to stir up
things when tho Shields, Myers and other
similar bills appear. ,
Measures designed to permit formation of
exporters' trusts, as a post-war protective
step, will feature tho session If thero Is
tlmo for everything. Then thero are a hun
dred nnd one other bills df varying degrees
of Importance all of which means midnight
oil or a lot of unfinished business March 4.
