MALONEY UNDKIl $10,000 BAIL Malorey, Val O'Farrell petecthe Agency manager In this city, whose testimony against Mayor Smith, his eight co-defendants and "men higher up" was moit damaging, was held In $10,000 ball by Mag istrate Watson, In the Central Station, for further hearing next Thursday upon mur der conspiracy charges preferred by the Department of Public Safety. Judge J. Willis Martin, In Quarter Ses sions Court, a few minutes pretlously ruled that Maloney should be surrendered to the police. In accordance with the warrant that Was blocked by a writ of habeas corpus. The final victory of the administration's police In their determined efforts to gut this "star" wltnem was not without laurels for District Attorney Itotan, who haa been contesting what he termed today police ter rorlr.ntlon.of witnesses against Mayor Smith and his Accused followers SCOTT NOT IIIX'OONIZCD representative John 11 K Srott. a lead ing Vare-Bmllh political lieutenant, ap pearing aa "counsel for the Department of Publlo Safety," was not recognized by Judge Martin In the preliminary argu ment on the write of habeas corpus, whereby District Atorney Itotun held Ma loney Immune from arrest until after he had given his sensational testimony Involving Senator Vare as the "ilttle man" In tho Importstlon of New York gunmen for the Fifth Ward primary election At thn hearing before Magistrate Watson, however, Scott was recognized by tho Mag istrate, a Vare-Smlth follower, and, In a heated battle with the District Attorney, declared that he would produce evidence showing that the District Attorney's office had been suppressing Information about the case. A counter-mote by District Attorney ftotan waa made after the hearings when he summoned Captain of Detectives Tate to hla oince and demanded the names of thn ntt nessts who, Mr Scott boasted, would tes tify against Maloney, James I Clnrk (the "man with eyeglasses") and Michael J Sul livan, the three Commonwealth' witnesses, who testified that they were Instrumental In bringing the gunmen to thla city Captain Tate refused District Attorney Itotan, who did not an nounce what would bo his next move, made It plain that he la prosecuting Maloney, Clark and Sullivan equally with Mayor Smith and the others Involved and char acterised Tate's refusal aa "additional evi dence" of police Interference In tho Investi gation, Intimation that Captain of Detectives Tate may be arrested In connection, with tho case was made by Assistant District Attorney James Gay Gordon, Jr., when h objected to Tato's testifying on the grounds that he is "closely allied" with one ot the defendants. He declared that a warrant virtually was hanging over the head of the detective cap tain, but qualified It a moment later by saying that none had been Issued, Maloney, former harbormaster and po litical leader In the "Bloody Fifth," was taken before Judge Martin this morning He was accompanied by District Attorney Jlotan, Assistant District Attorneys James Oay Gordon, Jr., and Joseph A, Taulane, representing the Commonwealth, nnd J. Hurrwood Daly and former Hepreaentatlve J. Washington Logue, his personal counsel. Mr. Scott also appeared. An attack waa Immediately launched against Mr. Scott by Mr. Itotan "Whom Ai you represent, Mr. Scott?" asked the District Attorney "The Department of Publlo Safety," re plied Scott, confidently. "I object, your Honor," said Mr Itotan, citing numerous Jaws nnd court decisions showing that none but he or tho City Solicitor could represent the city's police. SCOTT nULUD OUT BY COUItT Judge Martin then ruled that Scott had no authority to appear. "He has no official standing In this case," aald Judge Martin Judge Martin announced his object to be to determine the legality of the warrant on which Maloney was arrested October 1 by Detective Belshaw, the day District Attor ney Itotan snatched him from the police by means of the writ. Finding It legal, he said, he announced his Jurisdiction In tho case ended He declined to have ball en tered before him, as suggested by Maloney's counsel. He called attention to the fact, however, that Maloney's alleged offense was bailable. "In order to see that he Is not unlaw fully deprived of liberty, I will sit here this afternoon to hear an appeal, if neces sary," said Judge Martin. Maloney, officially under arrest, then waa taken to the Detective Bureau, where he was "stated." He was taken at once to the Central Station, before Magistrate Wat aon, who had been present at the hearing before Judge Martin. The same confident Scott appeared here as representative of the police and again District Attorney Itotan objected, calling upon Magistrate Watson to follow the ex ample of Judge Martin's ruling, made In a court of record. Watson, however, refused, drawing from Mr. Gordon the Intimation that the hearing had been "flxed" before hand. "What were you doing In the Magistrate's chamber before the hearing?" he asked, pointing a finger at Scott ''A court of record haa ruled that Mr. Scott haa no standing In this case," pro tested Jlotan. "If he can prove that I have been derelict In my office he should swear out an affidavit before a court and proceed against me. But he dare not do it." "You'll see what well do to you," threat ened Scott. "I repeat that you dare not do It," flashed back Itotan. "The police have been at tempting to terrorize witnesses ever since the case started against the city officials and others. This Is not the first attempt to get possession of Mr, Maloney. We will not stand for such Interference," "We will produce witnesses,'' Scott an swered, "to prove our side of the case, which Mr, itotan s department has sup pressed. We have witnesses of our own.

The Mayor was asked If the end of the Fifth Ward fireworks was In sight and he burst out laughing "Why, the pyrotechnics have Just begun," he exclaimed. "We haven't started our side of the show yet.

In reviewing the results of the publlo hearings on the lease which have been held before Councils' Joint finance and street railways committee, said that they have developed the following funda mental questions, which must be decided by Councils! "First. Shalt the taxpayers of the city or the car riders bear the burden resulting from the city's' participation In rapid-transit development In Philadelphia? Shall the tax rate be raised or car ares temporarily Increased? "Second, Shall the fare be held at five cents flat, with universal transfers and all excess cost paid out of tho city's general tnx revenues, or shall the fare be flexible nnd vary up and down as required to meet the cost of service and aa approved by the Public Service Commissions?

It is a Cadillac Limousine, and I picked it out myself mi just two hours' time at the Cadillac Salon, 142 North Broad, where they arc having- the real thing in an Open ing of 1918 models, all this week and last. Remember, Madge, what a bugbear we thought It was going to be picking it out? Well, it wasn't. The moment I leaned back on those wide, comfy cushions and spied the little "beauty box" on the side, I just knew it belonged, the same way you know with a gown or a hat or anything. The outside is of the loveliest gray enamel, with a wonderful shine. It takes nineteen coats of paint to get that kind of a lustre, the nice salesman told me. The inside is all upholstered in sapphire velvet, set in perectly stunning stripes, exactly like my new Pariuin. I know everybody will think it was ordered to go with me. That was one thing that decided me. There is true economy in it, too, as the cushions will last forever, being of mohair velvet, which you may not know is made of real Angora wool. it It holds five inside with the greatest ease. When you want to talk scandal or anything, the chauffeur can't possibly hear; and when you want to tell him something you don t have to scream into any tube. All you have to do is to press two little buttons on the side. The motor Dictagraph, they call them. They're another special Cadillac feature. The first one signals him. The second turns on a switch or something, so he can hear you perfectly. Well, I was sure, but not quite sure, so they took me out for a spin in the park, and it was so perfectly glorious, skimming along like a bird, we stayed pretty late and had to put on our headlights; but that doesn't mean we blinded every other car we met. The Cadillac has a spec al tilting reflector that, instead of going in the other man's eyes, throws the light on the ground some way. I can't explain, but you'll see when I take you out. That was the last thing that decided me. i And Harry, bless him, never raised a single objection but one, and that was so perfectly ridiculous I squashed it on the spot. "Don t you think, Toots," he -sked, "you might, have tried.out a few of the others first, just to be sure?" "Harry," I answered, "when I took -you, I didn't have to try out all the rest first, did I?" And he said, "Ye gods, nol" just as I meunt him to.
