SIMPSON. ROY If., 110 East Duval street,
Philadelphia.
Says Vare O. KM
Hire of Gunmen
Continued from Taite One
with "Baltllnf: Abe" Cohen, B25 Dc
Lanccy street, on the stand.
"Cohen's cros-s.examlnatlon by Attorney
Clray, chief counsel for Isaao Deutsch
and hlij sis endefendants, devclopeij n
few htnts about "stuss" games and crap
layouts.
The seven defendants displayed a deep
Interest as Maloney took a seat on the
stand.
Maloney admitted he was under an
Indictment and that ho had not been
promised Immunity as a concession for
his testimony.
The witness, said he had known Isaac
Deutsch for fifteen .years. lie met
Deutsch outside of Senator Vare's office
In the Lincoln Bulldlne before the Sep
tember primaries.
Aitkrri to Do Some Work
The contender fortho Fifth Wnrd lead
ership. Maloney said, asked him to do
(some work for him In 'hat ward. Ma
loney referred him to a man named
I.lpi'chutJ!, In New York. Llpschutz and
Deutsch later could not agree on a price,
and no arrangement was made between
them.
Maloney named Senator Vare as the
"boss" who guaranteed payment for the
Importation of eighteen "detectives" on
primary election lat September.
Deutsch had arranged with Maloney
for the eighteen men who were to wear
ribbons, "so that the Fifth Ward police
would nltnow .them."
Congressman William S. Vare and
Flnley, executive manager of the Repub
lican City Committee, were present In
the Vare office In the Lincoln Building
when Maloney called In reference to pay
ment fo the men to he Imported.
Congressman Vare assured him, Ma
loney testified, that Deutsch "had ample
money to pay all bills. There will be
no trouble about money."
The Congressman did not seem In
clined to say any more, the witness
said, and he started to leave the office.
Flnley followed him to the door.
"Deutsch has sufficient of money, plenty
of money. " You will be paid," Flnley
absured him, Maloney asserted.
Drought Thugs Here
As Maloney told of brlngtng the Frog
Hollow thugs Into the Fifth aru.
Deutsch watched the jury. Henneu
stnred directly ahead at the witness.
Four of the police defendants leaned for
ward on the long bench they were oc
cupying Inside the courtroom rail.
Wirtschafter alone aispiayea no un
usual Interest, but 'continued chewing
gum.
Counsel for the defense nsked the wit
ness if Maloney was his right name.
The witness said It" was and denied that
ho ever used another.
The court would not permit Oray to
exmaine Maloney about his domestic life.
The court also blocked an attempt to
have Maloney tell of his connection with
tho famous Salter case.
Oray probed Into Maloney's political
career.
Maloney admitted he had been politi
cal leader of the Fifth Ward from 1900
to 1905, when a reform wave upset his
power.
In 190B, Maloney said, he engaged In
detective work for William J. Burns In
New York, continuing with Burns until
1910. Ho then established a detective
agency In New York The witness lived
In Lansdowno at that time, he said. He
now lives at 772 St. Nicholas avenue,
New York city.
Didn't Try to Get Varea
Maloney, when his cross-examlnatlor
was resumed at the afternoon session
said he "never started out to get the
Mayor or the Vares."
Gray pressed the witness for his rea
son In not depositing In ban the $1000
note he received In a special de
livery letter. Maloney said he had no
reason for depositing It, but gave It to
Persch to be changed Into smaller notes.
"Frankly, Mr. Maloney, weren't you
trying to frame Flnley by the giving the
vote to Pcrsch as a corroborative wit
ness?" was Gray's thrust.
"If I was trying to, Magistrate Fersch
would be tho last person In the world I
would use," wns the reply.
"Does that mean you would not trust
him with a thousand dollars?''
"Kxactly." '
Maloney said when he got the bank
note back from Persch through the malf,
Assistant District Attorney Gordon, Red
mond, an attorney In former Judge Gor
don's office, and two trust company rep
resentatives were present and saw hln
receive the note. Gray mado repeated
thrusts In an attempt to prove that Ma
Icney used the thousand dollar bill to
make eUdence damaging to Flnley, The
witness parried the thrusts, meeting
each Insinuation of collusion with a
bland denial. ,
Denies Arrest In Canada
Maloney denied that he had been ar
rested In Canada for bribery, had
Jumped ball and was now a fugitive
from justice. He admitted he was in
Canada in 1913, posing as a business
man named Sampson.
Maloney denied Magistrate George A.
Persch had been an operative for the
O'Farrell Agency. He said all tho
agencys cases were sent to Persch as
a Magistrate. He denied Persch was
known as "Operative PB." The prlncl
pal business now of the O'Farrell
Agency Is protecting munition factories,
not furnishing strike-breakers, as Im
puted by Mr, Oray.
Counsel for defense dragged Harry
Thaw's name Into the case. Maloney
admitted the Thaw family were clients
of- the agency, which had been engaged
Ky District Attorney Swann. of New
York, to find Thaw when Harry fled
aftsr beating Frederick Gump.
"Maloney said he found Thaw by accl-

pushing ihc spearhead south of Rheims in an endeavor further to close the Soissons-Rheims pocket. 2
Oulchydc-Chatcau, one of the bastions of the Germans1 right flank, is reported raptured by the Franco
Americans. 3 American troops arc pushing forward on the five-mile front between Orizolles and Hezu-St.
Germain. -1 Near Dormanj the French arc pouring troops across the Marne in pursuit of the retreating enemy.
5 Burning villages near Fere-en-Tardenois shows the enemy is making reading for a further retreat. 6 British
troops drhing at the foe's left flank have made important gains. 7 The line of the Vcsle River, to which the
Germans probably will fall bark
dent In a Philadelphia hotel. The Court
Interposed.
"1 wnnt to sho wthat this man con
cealed Thaw," explained Gray. ,
"I don't care whether he hid him or
burled him," commented th Court.
Gray entered n general objection,
which was admitted to the records. He
again attempted to refer to the Thaw
case, but the Court blocked him. "We
aro not going to try" sixteen cases at
once," ruled Judge Ilnuse.
Maloney admitted he had been ar
rested In Connection with the present
case. Intimating that the police tried to
jail him because he was a witness In
prosecution. Maloney denied he had dis
cussed the Fifth Ward situation with
former Judge James Gay Gordon nnd
James S. Bcnn, city editor of a Phila
delphia newspaper. A minute later he
admitted that Benn had talked with him
nbout tho Fifth Ward before the Sep
tember primaries. Magistrate Persch
was present at the conversation, which
occurred on the Mrcet. The witness In
dignantly denied Gray's Insinuation that
Maloney hhd "planted" men In tho Fifth
Ward for the purpose of "framing" Vare
men there.
Payment for Imported Men
Maloney told how Michael O'Sulllvan
brought eighteen "good strong husky
men" from New York city for the pil
mary election. Tl)c bulk of his direct
testimony was concerned with the al
leged payment of $1000 for the services
of tho Imported men. He described a
visit to Flnley at a Philadelphia hotel
where Flnley, ho said, Inquired about
the "murder down In the Fifth Ward."
He told of several telephone calls from
Flnley, tho following day. Flnley used
the name "Smith'," he said.
"Smith, or Flnley, Maloney said, met
him by appointment at Thirteenth and
Walnut streets nfter telling Jtlm to
be careful he was not followed, Maloney
said Flnley did, not havo the $1000 wltli
him at that meeting. Maloney narrated
the receipts of a one thousand dollar
bill. Maloney said tho special delivery
letter In which the money came to his
office was addressed entirely In printed
capitals.
Flnley had telephoned ho was send
ing a special delivery letter with the
money, the witness testified.
Maloney said he received tho one
thousand dollar bill two days after the
election nnd gave It to Magistrate
Persch to have It changed. He got
the note back the following Tuesday, he
said. He conferred with District At

OULCHY LE CHATEAU CAPTURED
BY ALLIED ARMIES, IS REPORT
Continued from Paite One
Grlsollcs. seven miles northwest of
Chnteau-Thlerry.
The Germans are stiffening their re
sistance between the Ourcq and the
Alsne Rivers, nnd nre bringing up
guns.
In their fighting nlong the Marne,
the French arc revolted to be experi
encing great difficulty In making n
passage ofthe river nt some points
being stubbornly opposed by the Ger
man Infantry, well supporter! by artil
lery nrfrt machine; guns.
Well-informed opinion In London re
gards the sltimtlon on the battlefront
as going well for the Allies. It Is
not expected, however, that the ad
vanco will he so rapid as previously,
the Oermans having now had plenty
of time to net their reserves Into
position. They nre also displaying n
disposition to light for r,ll they nre
worth.
The expectation of those who
thought that the Germans were pre
uarlng to give up Immediately the en
tire Solssons-Chnteau-Thlerry-Hheims
salient and drop back to the Velo or
the Alsne has not yet been fulfilled.
Arcnrdlnsr to ti'tlav't dispatches the
German Is lightlna his hardest to Inns,
on to even' foo: of ground he has and
Is constantly cun'-er-attnckii' with
surprising momentum, both on the
Marne and aIuim ii-o west side of the
salient.
By f7ic United Press
Paris, July 23.
OuIchy-la-Chateau, the dominating
point ontho lino between Solssons
and Chateau-Thierry, Is reported to
have been captured by the Allies, but
tho report Is not officially confirmed.
American troops are reported to
havo captured Buwney (four miles
south of Solssons and east of the
Solssons - Chateau Thierry highway).
The report is unofficial.
Additional important gains nre said
to have been made In tho Solssons
region yesterday. General Mangln is
tightening his grip on Mont de Paris,
which commands the city of Solssons.
Only artillery fighting, however. Is
reported on the whole Alsne-Marne
front last night, by the French War
Office, In today's communique.
Capture Three Village
French troops advanced on a three
mile front north of Montdidler
(Plcardy front), capturing three, vil
lages nnd 300 prisoners.
During the night only artillery
flghtlns was reported on the whole
battlefront, the communique said.
North of Montdidler a sharp local
operation enabled the French to
take Mailly-Ralneval, Sauvillers and
Aubvlllers, together with 300 pris
oners. (Aubvlllers is six miles north, and
slightly west of Montdidler. Sau
villers is a mile north, and slightly
west of Aubvlllers. Mallly-rtalne-val
Is two miles north and west of
Sauvilitt-s.
As a result of the Allies' bombard
ment from both sides of the Rhelras
Solssons pocket, the German Crown
Prince has only a seven-mile passage
for withdrawal of his troops, It Was
reported from the front toddy. (The
width of the salient on the Fere-en-Tardenols
line Is nbout 25 miles.)

With the French Armies in the
Field, July 2.1. The German retreat
northward from the Marne was bclns
carried out last night by the light of
burning .villages the. torches of Prus

The sky was Illuminated from
horizon to horizon by blazing towns
and nmmunitlon dumps, as the enemy
continued his retirement toward the
Vesle niver. Allied aviators report
great congestion on the roads below
Hnsochcs (on the Vesle, two nnd a

It Is established thnt the Germans

Prisoners Increasing
The number of prisoners is steadily
increasing. When they nre nil counted
It ryobably will be found that one
army alone has captured nearly as
many as the total of the present offi
cial estimates. (The latest official
statement regarding prisoners was
lade In Sunday's Paris communique,
when It was announced that more than
20,000 had been taken and more than
400 guns captured).
Bazoches Is one of the most impor

Information does not Indicate any radical
change In the situation along the bat

that today would be another of heavy
attacks nnd counter-attacks with not
more than slight changes In the line.
The Allies continued today to tighten
their vise-like grip upon the German

Solssons to nhelms. The enemy is fran

While Arcs were reported In tho dis

night there were no reports of similar
conflagration nlong the fine south from
Solssons or that running southwest from
