The nation must steel Itself for the
hock of lt blR first casualty lists, ac
cording to ofUccrs today.
These are not d!proportlonate to the
pcopo of the recent fighting, hut they
will bo far greater than recent list', and
will bring the war homo to America as
nothing else, these officers point out
American casualties for the entire
war tn the end of July totaled slightly
past 14 000. a far as announced But
the nation has not jet had the reflec
tion of the Solssons-rthelms lctory.
The totals are likely to be greater than
the totals ho far announced : as stated
some days ago, a high general ofllccr
then estimated they would not exceed
25,000. Including dead, wounded, missing
and prisoners. Since tnen mere has
been heavy fighting
General Pershing has been Instructed
not to hold hack casualties now. He
Is ordered to send them through speed
ily, and Chief rf Staff March has an
nounced that they will be given out.
without camouflage, no matter how
heavy they "may be.
General March Is understood to take
the position that the nation. Inspired
by Its victory and determined to press
on. will not be dismayed by Its first
touch of what war really means.
In fact, compared with French and
British losses, the American Josses will
be small. Seven divisions and two.odd
regiments are now engaged. Counting
men put In to replace casualties, it 1b
likely that more than 200,000 Americans
have been engaged.
While casualties normally run only
2 or 3 per cent. It Is regarded as quite
possible the losses In dead, wounded,
missing and prisoners In a conflict so se
rious as the Solssons-Rhelms will run
10 per cent or more.
Up to the present, casualty lists have
been slow In coming through and an
nouncements have been distributed over
a considerable space or time to "even
up" In some 'cases. The purpose of this
,, to Drevent the Germans having a
too accurate tally on what the results
of their actions were. jow, noweer,
it is held that the losses cannot be sent

CLOSES HER WAR FUND
Miss Ethel Drake Ends Activities
Eollowing Investigation
Kw York, Aug. 1.
Miss Ethel Drake has announced that
she will discontinue her war activities
and the collecting of money for her
She was director and founder of the
Drake Section Sanltalre, which claimed
to be collecting money to equip
ambulances for the French army and to
supply 1000 trained women drivers for
the motor ambulances. Her announce
ment followed an Investigation Into the
affairs of her society by Assistant Dis
trict Attorney Kilroe.
The money collected by the society
amounts to $14,000, all of which will
be turned over to Ambassador Jus
serand, the French Ambassador at
Washington.
fonllniied from rate One
and was going to Philadelphia by trol
Icy.
On the eve of tho September primary
last year, Wlrischafter was serenely un
conscious of tho raid on the Flnletter
Club, tho Carey headquarters, he told
tho Jury today. After the raid he went
to tho Pennsylvania Hospital to Inter
view Sergeant Michael Hogan. who had
been blackjacked at the club. From
that Intenlew and his subsequent Inves
tigation at the Flnletter Club. Wlrt
schafter gained the Impression the battle
at the club was simply a "family squab
ble" among Its members
The witness denied he fired n shot
Into the club. A Commonwealth wit
ness Identified WlrUchafter posltlxely as
tne man wno mscn.irgeu a rcDi:i
through a window The shot preceded
the rufh of gunmen Into the place.
Tnutone Springs Surprise
Assistant District Attorney Taulane
launched his surprise nttack on Wirt
schafter the Instant Gray ended the di
rect examination. Taulane showed the
defendant a paper and asked If the
signature "John Wlrtschafter" was
written by him. The wltnestf, with sur
prise registered on his face and with
out looking directly at the paper, would
not admit the signature was his. Ha
would not assertithe signature was not
his either. Wlrtrchafter called attention
to n "C," ho said, missing from the
signed name. Tho prosecuting attorney lhe neutsch faction,
asxed mm to write nis signature, wnicn
was done. Taulane and his associates
then compared the specimen signature
and that on the offered document. Mean
time Attorney Gray tried unsuccessfully
to see either the document of the speci
men signature. The Court would not per
mlt tho defense nttorney to pee either
without prosecution's consent. Wlrt
schafter persisted he could not Identify
the name unless permitted to read tho
entire paper.
Finally Admits Signature
He would not admit the signature
even looked like his Drten Into a
corner by Taulane, Wlrtschafi'er de
clared he was not familiar with his
own handwriting
"Did ou make a report tn the super
intendent of police?" nskrd Taulane.
"Yes, sir" Whereupon the prosecut
ing attorney renewed his efforts to hae
the signature Identified by the witness.
The Court at length suggested that the
witness be allowed to read the paper.
Wlrtschafter then f.ald the signature was
his, and asked permission lo explain.
Wrote at Tate's Direetlon
Wlrtschafter said he was taken to City
Hall after primary election day and con
fronted with "Butch" Mascla and later
with "Lefty" Cosiello. both serving long
terms for the murder of Policeman
I.pplcy The witness sail the gunmen
were abked If they had seen him, Wlrt
schafter, at Sixth and Spruce streets, or
In New York oily. Tho gunmen, the
witness asserted, answered no.
Afier ho was confronted with the gun
men Wlrtschafter, at the direction of
James Tate, then captain of detectles,
wrote several statements concerning his
knowledge of tho murder and other elec
tion day events In tho Fifth Ward. Wlrt
schafter said he was nervous and shak
ing when he made the statements.
Admits Misstatements
Wlrtschafter declared he made several
misstatements In his City Hall reports.
He never thought when he made the
.misstatement, he explained, that he
would be undergoing trial in a con
spiracy case.
To prove his contention that Wlrt
schafter was a "political cop" Taulane
qulzied the witness about his police rec
ord He made the defendant admit he
was transferred to tho Second and
Christian streets station Just before the
S&lus-Moore contest In the Fourth Ward.
He was transferred to the Third and
Delancey streets police station, he ad
mitted, a short time before the Carey
Deutsch contest began In the Fifth
Ward. Taulane's hammering sent Wlrt
schafter "up In the air." He began nrgu

had previously testified for the Common
wealth. Davis said Lieutenant Bennett
never discussed politics In the station
house.
He contradicted testimony given by
Policeman John Flynn two weeks ago
concerning a remark made by Bennett.
The remark tended to show the lieuten
ant to be politically active. Taulane re
minded Sergeant Davis he had been a
Commonwealth witness.
Ordered to Appear In Uniform
"When you testified for the Common
wealth you nppcared here In civilian
clothes. Xovv you are wearing your
uniform. Why arc you?" the prosecutor
asked.
"I was ordered to," answered Davis.
"Who ordered you?" queried Taulane.
Gray objected and was overruled,
"The order came over the official wire
last night fro mthc ofllce of the Super
intendent of Police," Davis replied.
drny Tilts With Judge
Sergeant Davis declared himself a
"McN'Ichol man." Taulane used all his
resources of cross-examination, without
success, to draw from Davis an admis
sion there was political activity In Ben.
nett s station house. The sergeant Knew
the twenty-seven police transferred from
the Third District before the primary
were Carey men. Unlike his superior.
Lieutenant Bennett, and Policeman
Wlrtschafter, Sergeant Davis knew there
was a Carey-Deutsch "contest In the
ward." "I learned It from the news
papers," he added. Taulane asked If
Lieutenant Bennett was aligned with
Gray objected.
"I suppose the witness will reply the
lieutenant was a political friend of Mr.
Deutsch?" Judge Hause commented.
"With all respect. 1 must object to
your Honor's supposition," said Gray.
"Oh, I purpose to suppose as often ns
I want to," rejoined Judge Hause.
Witness Proves Boomerang
Sergeant Davis proved the frankest
police witness yet called by the defense.
He prqved, In effect, a boomerang, for
from him Taulane drew the moat direct
statement yet secured, linking Bennett
with Deutsch. The sergeant asserted
Bennett was n Vare man, that Deutsch
was a Vare man and that the lieutenant
was a friend of Deutsch, and not a
friend of Carey. He admitted Deutsch
had been In the station house "ten or
twelve times," but would not Bay he had
been there "scores of times," as Taulane
put It.

whoso name has been mentioned fre
quently In the testimony, followed House

tenant Bennett had not visited Deutsch
In Atlantic City In August or September
of last ear. The sergeant said he
heard the lieutenant was at the shore
city, but did not kne whether he vis
ited Deutsch or not.
Sergeant, at Scene, Ignorant of Raid
Glendlnnlng, on the night of Septem
ber 18, saw a crowd of Btrange joung
men near tho Flnletter Club. He did
not try to disperse them. Feldman and
Uram were with 1.1m at the time. He
could not say. he stated, that Uram
and Feldman went with the crowd when
It mwved toward the club. He saw To-
llceman Murphy and Detective Harry
Clark on the step of the club when he
(Glendlnnlng) npproached the place as a
shot was fired and cries of "murder"
and "help" were sounded.
The sergeant's Investigation of the
shot and tho murder call was fruitless,
he testified
"Sergeant GlenJlnnlng. didn't you
know that raid was coming off?" Tau
lane asked.
"No. sir," he replied.
"Didn't you tell Wlrtschafter that
night that the raid came from with
out?"
"Yes, sir," the sergeant answered
aiendlnnlnr persisted, however, In tat
ln he thought the melee in the ctub
was "an ordinary fight nmong them
selves." Wlrtschafter' and Murphy were lhe
regular special officers In tho Third
District, the sergeant asserted. Tau
Inne made him admit Uram and Feld
man, two of the defendant policemen,
did plain clothes duty In the district,
but he didn't know "vvhnt kind of work
they did."
Shot and Srrenms 'Mint Trivial."
There were Injured men llng In the
Flnletter club, furniture was disordered,
he had heard a shot and screams, yet
he thought the whole affair "was trivial,
Glendlnnlng testified. Taulane tried to
pin him down to n statement that Uram
led tho raiding party of huskies. Uram
was In tho vicinity, he said, but did not
shepherd the gunmen.
When Bennett was absent at any time
from the Third District, Glendennlng
was acting lieutenant. For that rea
son. Taulane subjected him to a long
nnd severe cross-fire to get him to tell
Incidents "behind the scenes In the
district. Glendlnnlng admitted he had
gone to the Deutsch club twice. He
"Just dropped In," he added. He denied
he canvassed votes for Deutsch.

sert Deutsch had power over me r..i"
Ward police. Judge Hause cul ..the an
gle. He asked the sergeant If De"(,n
wna recognized as the leader who had
Influence over the police. The witness
admitted Deutsch was.
Attorney Gray called another ser
geant to the stand, but Taulane sur
prised the defense by recalling Lieu
tenant Bennett.
The prosecutor asked if the lieutenant
hnd reported Benjamin Yanowltz'a res
taurant to tho Federal authorities as a
suspected "speakeasy." Bennett replied
he repprted Yanowltz to Will Gray
Ucarh. a revenue agent.
"Did you report any other tea-room
proprietors to the Federal authorities?"
The lieutenant could not say that he
did.
"Isn't It a fact that Beach found no
v lolatlon of the law nt Yanowltz's place,
but did find violations at places not re
ported by you?"
The court ruled that the question need
not be nnswered. Bennett said a busi
ness man named Settzer went his ball
when he was arrested on the charge at
Issue.
Sergeant KulogUes Bennett.
Lieutenant Bennett was eulogized by
William J. Mlnnls, a Third District
street sergeant.'
"Did Lieutenant Bennett ever talk
politics with you?" Gray asked.
"No," was the reply. He added
"Bennett did say to me that police
nnd politics did not mix, would not mil
and never could mix."
The next witness, Joseph Brown, act
ing house sergeant, Third District,
caued Judge, Jury nnd spectators to
smile. He was willing to admit he
voted for Carey, but iralncd the Deutsch
Club and came to be known as a Deutsch
man, thereby saving himself from trans
fer.
"He evidently knew on which side his
bread was buttered," commented the
Court.

Herbert Salus. Select Councilman from
the Fourth Ward, and brother of State
Senator Salus. and Special Agent Sul
livan, of the Department of Justice, hnd
a flsi-flght this afternoon In the third
floor corridor of the Federal Building.
The fight followed an attempt by Salus
to talk privately with one of fourteen
young women In Sullivan's custody.
Salus Is counsel for the girl, one of
several taken In a raid Saturday night
on the Kagle Hotel, Tenth street below
Chestnut, by thd Federal authorities
She was held as a material witness
against the proprietor.
Owing to the ibsence from the city
of United Stntes Commissioner Lone,
the second hearing In the case, which
had been set for this afternoon, was
postponed until Monday by agreement
earlier In tho day between attorneys for
the Government and the prisoners.
In spite of that, however, the fourteen
women were taken to the courtroom nt
the appointed time, and, under direction
of Captain Bernard J. Cunningham,
head of the Department of Justice vice
squad, placed under arrest, with the In
tention of later turning them over to
the Misdemeanants Court, at Twelfth
and Wood streets.
Meanwhile, hundreds of persons had
assembled, expecting to attend the hear
ing. Sullivan was placed In charge of
fourteen vvdmen, who were herded Into
the Jury box for safe keeping.
When Salus tried to draw his client
from the room, Sullivan objected, Sharp
language ensued and a scuffle followed
In Salus's attempt to take the girl Into
the corridor. Sullivan thereupon
grabbed SalUB by the collar and attempt
ed to arrest him for Interfering with
Government witnesses. Salus's client
and two other girls made their escape In
the excitement.
Salus and Sullivan fought their way
out of the courtroom and went to th
floor of the corridor In a tight flinch.
Another agent of the Department of Jus
tlce raised a blackjack as If about to
UBe It on Salus's head. Thereupon Sam
uel Blcadon, another attorney, grabbed
his arm. A general mlxup between
Government officers and attornej u for
the various prisoners followed.
Other Go'vernment officials came run
ning from all parts of the building, and
found It necessary to adopt strong-arm
methods to separate the belligerents and
restore order. Salus and Sullivan
finally were pacified at the hands of
Deputy Marshal Matthew Kelly and
"Bobble" Denis, n boxing promoter, nnd
the crowd was dispersed. Salus pro
tested to tho District Attorney s oltlce
over the treatment ho received.
After a conference between Todd
Daniels, special agent tn charge of the
Department of Justice bureau : Captain
Cunningham, and the District Attorney's
office. It was decided to relcjise the remaining-
eleven women held ax wit

under their present ball, ranging from
