' nypocntcav- PENROSE'S STATEMENT Senator Penrose said: 'Mayor Smith's statement Is not candid and straightforward, but this Is not unusual with him. He states that ho has been com pelled to break silence, after being promptly suppressed by his lawyer when he mado a silly break to the effect that he had not been brought, on the ground thit his defense of the criminal proceedings against him mignt oe put in Joopardy. "Apparently ho had hoped that his hear Injr would occur on Friday of last week, beforo election, but ho entirely overlooked tho fact that the postponement until after lection was mado nt tho request of tho at torne"ys for tho defense evidently to avoid -T- further recital of tho details of the Fifth Ward infamy beforo election day. . "Iayor Smith tells an unqualified and' ueiioeraio raiscnood In what he says about any conversation with mo concerning Mc Curdy or Judgo Gordon. That ho lies In this Instanco will not surprlso tho many thousands of citizens who havo come to the conclusion that hf lies In overythlng. I never discussed McCurdy nor Judge Gordon with him, and I literally paw lilm only onco or twice during- the period prior to his election. UnOED GHOOME'S APPOINTMENT "I opposed the selection of Wilson as Di rector of Public Safety, because I deemed him personally unfit, and I was at that time Interested In trying to make tho In- coming Administration successful. 1 urged on Smith the appointment of Captain Oroome as head of tho police department. 1 explained to him that If he would take tho police department as absolutely out of . politics as tho State constabulary had been taken, ho would gain n reputation all over the country ns n, great Mayor. "This argument did not prevail against the temptations afforded by a police de partment controlled by shyster lawyers, ward politicians, gamblers and the agents and beneficiaries of commercialized vice. 1 objected to Wilson more particularly lie cnuso of his connection with cold-storage legislation, which had been gravely ques tioned, and his relations to tho liquor truffle And the local option Issue, which had been & matter of wide and scandalous comment. The announcement of his appointment satis fled me that nothing could bo hoped for from tfie Smith Administration In the way of inuntcipat betterment. ,"! took no part, directly or Indirectly. ,In any transit legislation In Harrlsburg. I was closely tied up In Washington with matter? of great magnitude, and was In no way In touch with the legislative situation on this subject. Neither was I able to understand It, as f could not follow the Mayor's tor tuous and(obscuro course In this nutter. . JJOT MAN-HUNT VICTIM V (.It... U l.t. . .

The situa tion Is serious enough and cannot bo flip pantly set asldo by belated pre-election statements. "What bearing have they on the Issues Involving Eppley murdered njd Carey wounded nearly to death a physical wreck with the connivance of the police? The Issue Is made up and cannot bo obscured. Shall the attempt to control the city of Philadelphia by fraud, force and murdor perpetrated In broad daylight be permitted to succeed and go unrebuked? "In conclusion, I will remark that tho people of Philadelphia will be Interested In the Mayor's definition of what he considers sordid wealth.' doubt as to his precise 4 views having previously existed in tho minds of many In the midst of Suppositions and suggestions abounding on every side: ' and they will note with Interest hl h...v,. tlona as to how his sensitive nature was shocked by any conversation affecting tho obligation of his oath of office." WASHINGTON, Nov. 5. Comptroller of the Currency Williams unexpectedly Injected himself into tho railroad freight rate situation this aft ernoon when he issued a statement fa voring the proposed increases in rates. The comptroller's statement is inter preted as putting the Administration's 'stamp of approval on the move to giro the railroads of the nation increased revenues. A REAL "STAR SPANGLED" BANNER WASHINGTON, Nov. D. Asserting net earnings are steadily de clining despite greatly Increased traffic and moro efficient management, eastern rail roads today renewed pleas beforo the In terstate Commerce Commission for higher freight rates. The hearing was regarded as the most Important In years, as western lines also are expected to follow with a request for more revanuc.i. Chief Itallroad Counsel George Stuart Patterson, tf Philadelphia, In opening de clared that 1917 expenses would Increase 27O.O00,0O0 over 1918, but that rato ad vances allowed last June 30 would bring only JO", 000,000 Increased revenues. Some of the leading railroad men In the country Presidents Smith, of the New York Central ; Kea, of the Pennsylvania, and Un derwood, of tho Erie mado personal appeals. Itallroad employes are deserting to the higher -paid munition trades, Patterson stated, although the railways' annual wage Increase Is 1102,000,000, of which he said the Adamson eight-hour law represented $36,000,000. Other advanced costs claimed were coal, $78,000,000 and materials, $90, 000,000. "The question of rate Increases," said President Underwood, "narrows to thlsp are the roids to expand nnd prosper or wither and fall to perform tho Usual war demands? Aro the stronger ones to cut or pass divi dends and the weaker, default on their debts? "It Is not a healthy state for tho Erie to earn $83,000,000 gross nnd after exer cising all possible economies to have a bal ance of only $2,111,000 for betterments and sinking funds. Thcro Is no time to lose. The next two months will be a trying period for weaker lines." President Smith, of the New York Ccn tral, Btated tbls system would earn $93,000,000 gross more than last year, but would havo less net profits by several millions. He declared there was the same necessity for the Government assuring railroads reasonable earnings as to guar antee munition factories 10 per cent. Mr. Ilea thus summarized tho salient fac tors which are rendering Increasingly dif ficult the task of providing adequate trans portation servlco to the country: Continuous Increases In the cost of la bor, fuel, supplies, taxes and of obtaining new capital ; InabtllfV to nf-eilm nnrl rMot., nml.n labor; Curtailment of maintenance expenses. itn uunuiimeni is quo in part to In ability to securo neceisary labor and materials ; Decrease In net operating Income, not withstanding largo Increase In operating revenues, In property Investment, in car load and In tralnioad ; Iteductlon In surplus with consequent effect upon the credit of the carriers; Inability to secure new capital by the Issue of stock, with the consequent weak ening effect upon the financial structure: inability to provide Improvements and facilities, not only essential for the traf fic of today, but equally essential for tho traffic of the .future. . Declaring thatihe Pennsylvania Itallroad system faces Increased operatW' expVnsea of more than $74,000,000 per year, Mr. P.ea attributed this to tremendous advances in the prices of labor, fuel and materials, as well as higher taxes. He presented the fol lowing summary of Increased costs: Increased fuel costs J21.4.10.000 Increased material costs 14,094,000 Increased wases under Adamson law. 0,430,000 Increased wages to employes nther man inoee aneciea or ins Adam- ZS3 I M- f! .P'HI,V; ;;v. -sT.--..l. assssM im!X.t 'OmvN. ,.1 ,Fp si I I asK asasasAt4t ar s saaj; aaaaaaaaaaaaaaBdHaaaHEf Ak .

Dr H. 748,000 3.8TO.00O Total IH.2-J1.000 III discussing wages and the labor situ ation, Mr. Rea dwelt upon the great ad vances in wages which It had been neces sarry to grant to employes In addition to the trainmen affected by the Adamson law. Since last May, he said, the payrolls of the Pennsylvania system had been swollen by more than f 13,000.000 per year through wage advances granted to employes other than trainmen. Concerning the heavy tax burdens of the railroads, Mr. Rea said he saw "no pros pect of any reduction in taxation for a long time to co-.ne." Strongly urging that tho railroads Bhould have surplus earnings and credit sufficient to enable them to provide Improvements, extensions and additions, to facilities and equipment, in advance of actual needs, Mr. Rea said : , Tho railroads, he stated, should be In a position to follow the same policy, with teferenco to Improvements, as the Govern ment recognizes In financing the war. Some should be paid for out of surplus earnings nnd some out of new capital, he said: "In this connection," he continued, "I must again refer to the Importance to tho general Interests of the country of tho rail roads being nblo to secure additional capi tal by the Issue of stock and not almost exclusively by tho Issuo of bonds or short term notes.' Mr, Rea added-. "If this commission takes the view ot this situation which I hope. It will, the re sult will bo felt In the future financing of our Improvements, as It will give confidence to those furnishing such capital."
