COMPLAINT DATES BACK 17 YHAR.S
Hmlth's complaint averred that seventeen
years ago he retained tho lawyer to repre-
ent him In n suit against the Philadelphia
Rapid Transit Company for Injuries; that
y at far as he knew or was Informed by
Scott, the case was never reached for trial,
and that he believed the case still was
pending, when, upon selling a piece of real
estate, he learned for tho flrnt time that a
Ytrdlct had been rendered for the Phila
delphia Transit Company in January, 1915.
Then, according to the petition filed by
the Bar Association, Scott told him he had
ettled the case for $100 In January, 19 lb.
and had agreed that a verdict should be
entered for the defendant. Scott Informed
him that he had received $100 from the
company, and prepared a settlement, claim
ing a right to a fee of $50, n doctor's bill
Of 25 and additional costs of $5, leaving
a balance of $20 for Smith, the complainant.
In testimony before tho Board of Censors
last April, Smith said that ho visited Scott
and showed him a receipted bill which
represented $25 ho paid to tho physician
who had attended him.
In court today Smith repeated the testi
mony, which was somewhat upset when
Scott produced the bill which Smith had
left In his office. The bill was not receipted.
Asked by the court If he had any receipt
lor the money he alleged ho paid the physl-
cian; Smith replied :
"No, I hae no receipt; Doctor Hare, who
treated me after my accident, has been dead
r meive years; i paid mm just tne same."
SCOTT'S DENIAL
Mr. Scott made denial that ho had vio
lated his oath of office as attorney and de
sled he had been guilty of unprofessional
conduct, but on the contrary averred that
the Board of Censors was unwarranted In
Presenting the petition, "as tho facts there
in stated showed no grounds for entertain
ig the complaint."
"When the cast nppeared upon the trial

VARE-M'NICHOL PEACE
BURSTS LIKE A BUBBLE
Cogs of Republican Machine
Grate When Two City Hall
Men Are Suspended
Cogs of the Ilenubllcan machine crated
In discord, tho dova of peace uttered a
piercing shriek and tho "armed truce" be
tween the Vnrc and McNIchol factions burst
like a bubble today when two Thirteenth
Ward McNIchol followers, working In Varc
controlled city offices, were suspended.
The deed was done "for the good of the
service," according to official announce
ments. But, according to City Halt gossip, the
suspensions were a warning to the men not
to vote McNIchol-ward tonight when they
gather with the other committeemen nf the
Thirteenth Ward to choose the members
of the Republican City Committee. They
are said to have been served with notlco
that they wilt be dismissed unless their
votes favor tho Varc candidate.
Tho suspended men are Theodore Clay, an
$1100-a-year clerk In tho olllco of Receiver
of Taxes Kendrlck, a Varc chief, and
Thomas Hewitt, a $lG00-a-year chief of
transcribers In the office of Recorder of
Deeds Hazlett, also a Vare chief. Both
are members of tire Thirteenth Ward com
mittee, where a lively fight for the control
of the ward Is In progress Both Clay and
Hewitt have announced that they will sup
port Select Councilman John V Klaherty,
McNIchol leader of tho ward. In his candi
dacy ns representative of his ward on tho
city committee.
The Vare candidate. William II. Jones,
Is leading (he fight which the Vares nrc
making for the control of the ward, a con
flict In which aid from the Fourteenth Ward,
In the shape of Congressman John II. K.
Scott, has been lirvokcd. Congressman
Scott has been seen frequently at City
Hall In tho Inst few days, having hurried
up from Washgton.
Officials of both the oillces of tho Re
ceiver of Taxes and tho Recorder of Deeds
said that the suspension was for the good
of the service.
HOW TRUCE WAS ARRANGED
The "getting together" movement for next
fall's election was started some time ago,
and the army of Organization workers who
substantially benefit from a fnctlonal fight
received their first Intimation of the har
mony program at tho last meeting of tho
Republican City Committee. At that meet
Ing, the Vare ward leaders Indorsed the
entire list of eight Judges who will come
up for re-election The list Is evenly di
vided between the Varc and the Penrose-
McNIchol factions
There Is little possibility of any serious
opposition to the re-election of District
Attorney Samuel P. Rotan Receiver of
Taxes Kendrlck and Register of Wills
Sheehan nlso will run again, according
to their friends. Both are personal friends
of Mavor Smith, and he has indorsed them.
The City Treasurer cannot succeed himself
under the law, and a successor to William
McCoach will havo to bo selected. The
Vares will name tho candidate, however,
according to the harmony plans.
Tho arrangements for pence, however, do
not go so far as to Include the filling of
tho five vacancies that will occur among
tho magistrates. The two factions will
hotly contest theso places, and a swarm of
Individual candidates are expected to enter
tho race, especially since the pay of magis

lature from $3000 to $4000 a ear
The gubernatorial booms for Senator Wil
liam C. Sproul and Congressman John R.
K. Scott nrc being quietly pushed by their
friends throughout the State In preparation
for tho battle that will start soon after the
votes are counted next fall. This is In splto
of indications of harmony that resulted
from the dinner given in llarrlsburg by
Senator Vare in honor of Senator Sproul
last week.
DEMOCRATIC PLANS
The Democrats also are quietly laying
their plans. Vance C. McCormlck, who was
defeated by Governor Brumbaugh In 1911.
Is the most prominently mentioned of the
available timber of tho Democrats. Demo
cratic leaders believe that he could rally
tho Independent vote of the Stato behind
him.
State Senator Charles W. Kono, of Ly
coming, lias been brought forward as a
possibility, and a formal announcement of
his candidacy for the Democratic nomina
tion is looked for within a few weeks
Senator Sones It as the head of the "Old
Guard" macWno In his section of the State,
but In 1914 supported McCormlck. He Is
a wealthy lumber merchant.
WARD FIGHTS
Others who have been mentioned ns
Democratic possibilities Include National
Commltteceman A. Mitchell Palmer and
E. Lowrcy Humes, Assistant Cnlled
States District Attorney at Pittsburgh,
who prosecuted tho brewers In the "slush
fund'" piobe In Pittsburgh.
Tl ree determined fights for Republican
city commlttej seats, In addition to that
In the Thirtr?:-th Ward, which cost Clay
arid Hewitt thur Job, have developed, and
at least one now promises to go to the
,-nmtnltteo itself for a decision. The three
wards In which the contests are being waged
arc the Third, the Twenty-fourth and the
Thirty-fourth.
Tho indications are that Harry Trainer,
McNIchol man in the Third Ward, will
elect his man, though the Vare faction Is
putting up a stiff fight. The contest In the
tho Twenty-fourth Is so close that It will
probably go to tne City Committee. Blake
ly McCaughn. the McNIchol candidate, now
a member of the committee. Is trying to
carry sufficient votes to keep the election
away from trie committee. Today It Is re
ported that Mayor Smith has thrown his In
fluence against McCaughn and In favor of
the Vare candidate. There Is also somo
question ns to whether Ernest L. Tustin.
member from the Thirty-fourth, will be re-

Business Men Counsel Shows
Transit Company Can
Build Extension .
OLD CHARTER SUFFICES
Franchise Permits P. R. T. to
Construct System Throughout
West Philadelphia
HARRISBCRG, Pn . June 4.
The group of Philadelphia business organ
izations which aro seeking to force the Phil
adelphia Rapid Transit Company to construct
a cross-town trolley line directly connecting
South and West Philadelphia by way of
Passyunk avenue and Fifty-sixth street,
scored their first victory before tho Public
Service Commission here this afternoon.
The transit company, through Boyd Lee
Spahr, assistant general counsel, filed a
demurrer with the commission, claiming that
It could not bo compelled to build the line,
since Its franchises do not glvo It any
chnrter rights for the proposed route
This contention was true of tho P R. T I
Company nnd of the original charters of .
the underlying companies. Edward B. Mar
tin, counsel for the business men, however,
brought out the fnct that on April 8. 1858.
the Stato Legislature amended the original
charter of the West Philadelphia Passenger
Railway Company, now leased mid operated
by tho P. R T . giving It the right to extend
Its ronds to any part of the Twenty-fourth
Ward, which then comprised nil of West
Philadelphia.
This amendment, which, the complainants
declare, gives the commission full power
to order tho transit company to build tho
requested line, follows:
That said company Is hereby author
ized to extend their said road to any
part of tho Twenty-fourth Ward of the
Cltv- of Philadelphia, along any of the
public streets or highways thereof;
Provided, however, that said company
shall first present to Councils of said city
a plan nnd statement, exhibiting the route
of nnv such proposed extension and If
Councils shall not within sixty das here
after by ordinance disapprove thereof
the consent of tho said Councils shall
be detyned given thereto.
Although both the complainants and tho
transit company had been notified that the
caso would bo heard at 1:30 today, the
secretary of the commission had omitted
the case from the printed schedule for
today. When Chairman Alncy, of the com
mission, read today's list, Edward B. Mar
tin, one of the counsel for the business
men. hurried to the secretary's desk and
had the error corrected The omission nf
the case from tho printed list, however, de
la ed the argument until the very last thing
Ibis afternoon and caused considerable dis
satisfaction among the men
"This Is a tpe of the petty announces
we have been suffering from ever since we
first tried to force the Transit Company
to give us Justice." said John N. McGarvey,
ono of the delegation from the West Phila
delphia associations
STOTESBfRV LETTER AN EXHIBIT
Mr. McGarvey brought with him today
a letter written by E T. Stotesbury. chair
man of tho P. R T board of directors. In
1914. promising that the line would be
built ns soon ns financial conditions made
it possible
The Stotesbury letter, Mr. McGarvey said,
he hoped would 'convince the commission
of the moral obligation of the company
to build the line, since the company Is
now claiming earnings of 9 per cent in
stead of nn operntlng deficit ns in 1914.
The letter follows:
October 29. 1914.
Mr. Irving Dillon, secretary.
The Allied Business Men's and Im
provement Association of West Phila
delphia, 571 fi Christian street, Phila
delphia. Dear Sir-
As a part of the projected improve
ment, tho Fifty-sixth street line Is on the
list to be considered. This, however, cannot
be taken up nt the present tlmo by reason
of present financial considerations, but
will be taken up nnd disposed of when tho
opportunity presents Itself under more
favorablo conditions. We are very de
sirous of serving this community, and the
same will be given favorablo consideration
when financial conditions mako possible

Mrs. McGuigan Leaves Her Oven
to Rescue Aged Woman and
Two Babies From Flames
There Is n wide gap between plc-baker
nnd heroine, but It was bridged easily to

ing from the third story of tho homo of
Martin Phillip, a member of the fire de

later wns fighting her way to the third
floor of the Phillip home Sho found Mrs
Ida Snell. 75 years old, lying on tho floor
of a front room, partly overcome by smoke.
Seizing tho old woman under the arms, Mrs.
McGuigan half carried and half dragged
her to tha street.
Childish screams nnd walls warned Mrs
McGuigan that her work was not finished
Sho dashed to tho second floor nnd a min
ute later nppeared with a baby under each
arm She went back again and brought
down Elizabeth Phillip, nine months old.
Then, without waiting for congratulations
or cheers from tho "neighbor bleachers,"
Mrs. McGuigan went back to her pies, nnd
wns much relieved to find they had not
burned. Tho fire was caused by tho ex
plosion of nn oil stove Several hundred
dollars In bills which Mrs. Snell left on n

sponsibility Where It
Belongs
Every Imbiber of Intoxicating drinks
should bo licensed as such, and should be
required bv law to exhibit his license to
the bai tender when ho goes Into a saloon
for a drink of liquor. In case the licensee
abuses his drinking privilege, his llcenso
should bo revoked Immediately.
This new nnd novel handling of tho
liquor problem wns ndvnnced by David
Townsend, a consulting engineer, to'dny In
nn address nt tho weekly luncheon of tho
City Business Club nt the Hotel AdclphU
His subject was "Personal Responsibility."
"Every mnn who drinks liquor," said
Mr. Townsend, "should be licensed. Such
licenses should be Issued at City Hall tho
samo ns dog licenses, or any other hind
of licenses. When the licensee walks Into a
saloon for his beer, hln whisky, gin rlckey.
wino or nnv other kind of Intoxicant, be
should ho required by the bartender to show
hln drinklnir card before drinks lire served.
Abuse of tho drinking privilege should mean
Immediate cancellation of licenses.
"Licensing of drinkers, I am confident,
would do nvvay with tho treating evil, tho
luring of young girls Into the back rooms
of cafes and other abuses now allied with
the rum'trniric. I am certain that the liquor
Interests would approve of the licensing of
drinkers, for such a system would put tho
responsibility of good conduct right up to
tho drinker."
In dealing with the vice problem Mr.
Townsend urged that houses rented for
such purposes should have tho names of
tho owners placed In conspleloss places on
tho outside
"These owners," he Mild, "should bo held
personally responsible and not permitted
to escape tho law by hiding behind tho old
nuent-subtcrfuge. They should bo made ic-
sponslble for tho actions, of thee agents In
renting their properties
