steps taken by the Government and by
the newspapers co-operating with the Gov
ernment for tho regulation of war news,
addressed an audience composed not only
of the members of the Chamber of Com
merce, but also the publishers, editors and
executive otneers of the Philadelphia news
papers, who had been Invited to nttend.
The ballroom of the Bellevue-Stratford

luncheon so as to carry out the roof-garden
Idea ; na.ms and ferns were used freely
and numerous electric fans decorated with
American flags were scattered through the
room.

EXPERTS EXPLAIN EXCESSIVE
RAINFALL READ, AND REFLECT
Varied Theories Advanced to Clear the Weather
Situation, Even Though the Sky Is Hidden by
Moisture Laden Clouds
THIS rain being about the only thing left 1
that no committee had been appointed
to Investigate, a "blown-ln-thc-glass" sleuth
went out with Instructions to team the
why nnd the wherefore and spare nobody.
The sleuth set out with n couple of lead
pencils, a pocketful of notepapcr, nn Inquisi
torial mien, a determined Jaw, n reasonably
recent shave, a Ereat reputation and nn un
limited, drawing account on his Imagination.
The first thing the sleuth did when he got
out of the office was to hasten to a restau
rant, where ho .had a saucer of coffee and
some sliced peaches with cream, and thought
about his nsslgnment. He was thinking of
his assignment like everything when his
boss, also In quest nf coffee and peaches,
entered. So the sleuth, hastily donning one
of the Nick Carter disguises, slipped out
and up the street a square to another filling
station, where ho ordered some eggs and
ham In order to bo original, and was soon
again Industriously thinking about his as.
slgnmcnt.
After a chat with the aishler. who had blue
eyes, yellow hair nnd a stubby beard, tho
Sherlock sauntered forth. His brow wrin
kled as he tried to think what his nsslgn
ment was It had slipped his mind ns ho
talked with tho cashier. Tken It began to
rain nnd he remembered. You can't run
around In the rain, you know, so Nick made
for Gannon's Grove. There, beneath the
shado of the palms, he planned his cam
paign while tho orchestra played all the
funeral marches that ever were written.
Between showers he eaught a car for
Manayunk. The prnbo was on.
Hero Is the result In tho special Investl
gator's own words:
"I went out to see old Simeon Moke
macher, who says ho Is a weather expert.
He said he knew why It had been raining
lust about nil the time for weeks nnd
weeks, but he couldn't discuss It now. His
books nnd records and charts were nil
locked up In the safe and his prlvnte sec
retary. John O. Collins, had tho safo com
bination. Collins was away on his vaca
tion. Mokemachcr didn't know when he
Would be back.
"I asked Colonel McJcnsen, of the Union
League, what was tho cause of all the
rain, and he said, 'What ! You a newspaper
man nnd don't know that? Why, the
Underwood tariff.'
"I nskd a celebrated Democrat, nnd he
said It was Just a scheme of tho Republi
cans to embarrass tho Administration.
SILAS COBBLESWEATHER EXPLAINS
"Silas Cobblcsweather, the tinsmith, said:
"It's all plain as day. The land area
of the world gets less alt tho time. The
earth Is gradually becoming nil water. This
has been going on for centuries. The oceans
and rivers hnve been gradually getting
deeper, and pretty soon they will begin to
wi.Hr nwnv thn land very rapidly Much
of tho water evaporates all the time, as
you know. But It does not all come down
at once. It Is stored In tho form of clouds.
Thero Is rain stored In clouds for thousands
of miles all around the earth. Now, these
clouds are getting so full of rain that they
can't hold any more and there Is no space
thnt Is not filled, so tho clouds must drop
the rain hack on the earth. ....
"Now that tho clouds have started to let
go of all the rain thnt has been stored up
for centuries there Is no telling when they
will quit. There may be another deluge. 1
look for It. I bought an umbrella only yes
terday.' STAMMERSTONE'S THEORY
"George Stnmmerstone. tho traveling
salesman, has an entirely different notion.
" 'It Is the disturbance of the atmosphere
by airplanes," he snld.
" 'In normal conditions the rainfall Is
only equal to the amount of water the at
mosphere absorbs irom rivers, lanes nira
oceans. Now, you see, the air Is constantly
full of moisture. Air Is not dry. ns some
people think; thero nre little particles of
water In It. Now, with thousands of air
planes nnd balloons In the. air there Is not
enough room for the moisture. It Is crowd
ed out, and as there Is no other place for It

the vlbrattons of the planes nnd their

BOTTLINGHAM AND OTHERS
"Frank Bottllnghnm, a bnrtender. ex
plained It this way:
" "The temperance sentiment Is the cause
of It nil. These crusaders have brought
tt on. There Is a lot of water In beer,
wine nnd whisky. When everybody drank
a lot thero was a lot of water consumed.
Now drinking of beer, wine and whisky
Is being discouraged and lots of people
don't drink them any more. They don't
wnnt so much plain water, fo you see tho
consumption of water Is greatly reduced.
That makes more for nature lo take care
of and so more Is drawn up by thn sun
nnd comes back In the form of rain.'
"Joe Bcatty says the excessive rainfall
Is due to excessive nrgulng. duo to tho
multiplicity of things to nrgue nbout
the war tho Kaiser conscription. Every
body nrgues so violently that an over
heated general condition Is created. This
disturbs naturo so much that she must find
vent In some way nnd the rain Is the result.
"Sam Niuidlmcycr, the stationery and toy
dealer, said:
" 'It Is Just tho constant shooting In
Europe. You know It -scnernlly rnlns lato
the fourth of July or t' e fifth of July. It
used to rain hard ever. f -rth or fifth of
July. It hasn't been so irgulnr of lato be
cause the sane fourth people reduced tho
amount of shooting but iwforo that the
bombardment nlways brought rain. It Is
a well-known fact that farmers have re
sorted to blasting with heavy charges of
dynamite to Induco rain when drought
threatened their crops. Well, there Is so
much cannonading and bombarding In
Europe that tho same rerult Is produced
and It Is felt clear over here.'"

VICE ADMIRAL GRANT
IS A TRANSIT ADVOCATE
Former Commnndant at League
Island Foresaw Possibilities of
City as Shipbuilding Center
Vice Admiral Albert W. Grant formerly
commander of the Philadelphia Navy Yard
at League Island, who has Just been pro
moted to the rank by the President to re
organize the fleet, was one of the strongest
advocates of the Taylor rapid transit sys
tem for Philadelphia. He had the foresight
to see the coming Importance of the de
velopment of the Delaware In the construc
tion of ships. In the expansion of the navy
yird, and the .consequent rapid growth of
the city and port, especially In that great
undeveloped southern Fectlon so full of pos
sibilities He saw clearly what a factor
In this development the proposed subway
system would be and gave It his unqualified
approval.
Admiral Grant has had a notable career
since he graduated from the Naval Academy
as cadet midshipman In 1877. He Is a
native of Norfolk nnd from boyhood had
a strong liking for the water.
Perhaps the most striking promotion In
his career, nnd the ono which brought him
most prominently Into the public eye, was In
Mny. 1915. when he was selected to bring
the submarines to a maximum of efficiency.
In this work he was given very wide pow
ers, both In construction and development
of organization.
Previous to this nppolntmcnt he was In
command nf the battleship Texas, in whose
construction he took a prominent part.
In the navy he Is known as "a horse for
work." He Is a muscular giant, fond of
all outdoor sports. Admiral Ornnt Is also
a strong advocate of the proposed Inland
waterway channel nnd Is a recognized ex
pert on electricity
Willie commandant nt the League Island
Navy Yard he was also given the additional
duty of commander-in-chief of tho Atlantic
reserve fleet. His lajest promotion to vice
admiral Is a part of a partial reorganiza
tion of the Atlantic fleet to meet the new
problems resulting from Its expansion to
almost double its normal size.

Jersey Jurist Sustains Finding
in Case of Former Cape
May Official
TnENTON, July 19. The conviction of
ex-rrosecutor Matthew Jefferson, of Cape
May, for malfeasance In office was sus
tained by the Court of Errors and Appeals
In nn opinion by Chief Justice Gum
mere. This means, unless an appeal Is
taken to the Supreme Court of the United
States, that Jefferson must serve the term
of from ono to three years In State Prison
to which he was sentenced for violating the
criminal law by granting Immunity to
offenders for a money consideration.
The main point considered In Chief Jus
tice Gummere's opinion was the contention
of thn defense that Jefferson, ns a State
officer liable to Impeachment, could' not be
tried under the criminal law unless first
ndjudged guilty In Impeachment proceed
ings. Showing tho fallacy of this argu
ment. Chief Justice Gummero pointed out
that such n condition would mean In many
Instances the protection of Stnte officials
In any wrongdoing In their official capacity.
Many other instances might be cited. th
court added, where n similar result would
ensue. Remarking that there have been
only four Impeachment trials In New Jersey
since 1784. Chief Justice Gummero added:
Certainly no one will suppose that
during this period nf a hundrod and thlr
ty-three years the four persons thus pro
ceeded against constitute all of the office
holders under the State Government who
have been untrue to the trust reposed In
them. In fact, the very slightest exami
nation of our official reports will demon
strate to the contrary.
The Court of Errors also affirmed the
conviction of William H. Fennan, In five
cases Involving violation of the Atlantic
City ordinance regulating Sunday amuse
ments. They Involved tho operation of the
Steeplechase Tier.
