Street Railways this afternoon until his charges that ratification of the instru

"I demand that my charges be answered by the administration," said
Mr. Taylor, braving a hum of disapproval when Chairman Gaffney, of Councils'
Finance Committee, the presiding officer, insisted upon drawing the former
). Director into an argument.
Public opinion, voiced by representative business men, condemned the
f proposed lease, in spite of a lengthy defense of it presented by Dr. William
Draper Lewis, the Mayor's legal advisor on transit.

Iuestlgatlon of alleged Irregularities of
cettaln draft cases now being pmbed by
tho Federal Grand .luiy took a 'new tuiu
late this afternoon when tho liureau of J it -estlgatlon
of the Department nf Justice
caused tlio arrest of Dr. David Farlngci.
2102 Spring Garden street, accused of at
tempting to bribe a police suigcon.
Doctor Faiinger was atieitcd by Agent
Mallet, of tliel ocal branch of the Depart
ment of Justice. The arrest of the physi
cian came while United States Attorney
Fiancin Kl'sher Kano and his assistants
weie going over several other cases, which
It Is teported, will result In attests before
long.
Testimony offered before United States
Commissioner Long was to the effect that
Doctor Farlnger had offered "a little
change," as some of the witnesses testified,
to Dr. John II. Kgan. a police surgeon, If
he i ejected one William E. A. Heed, 22
North Tenth street. Heed Is now under
bail of $2000. He was arrested recently
when a hotel of which he Is the alleged
proprietor was raided by Government
agents.
According to Doctor Egan, while he was
examining men for the new National Army
In the Seventh Local District, whose head
quarters were at the Fifteenth and Vine
streets station. Doctor Faiinger came to
him and asked him to reject Heed. One of
the reason that Doctor Farlnger gave why
Heed should be i ejected was that at one
time .he was confined in the Hahnemann
Hospital for a fracture of the skull.
"If jou see him through. I'll see that you
get a blank envelope." the doctor Is alleged
to have told Doctor Egan, who testified at
the hearing,
Agent Mallet cortoboraled Doctor Kgan's
testimony, and added that the defendant
had also told Doctor Egan 'that he could
expect "some change."
Doctor Farlnger denied that he had any
thought of bribing Doctor Egan. He said
that when he mentioned "some change" he
merely thought of paying Doctor Egan for
his trouble to 'go to the Hahnemann Hos
pital to look up the record of Reed.
Ball of J2B00 was fixed by Commissioner
Long. . , . .
More witnesses have been summoned to
appear before the Federal Grand Jury In
this city which Is Investigating several al
leged violations of the draft act by Phlla
