jEXPECT ROBINSON
IN OLD JOB SOON
Early Release From Army
Foreshadows Return to
Police Bureau
NOW ON TEN-DAY LEAVE 1
Question of Restoration to
Full Powers Xies With
Director Wilson
Captnln James B. Robinson, United
States army, Is on a ten-day leave from
his military duties, a preliminary It 18
said, to his release from service nnd his
return as Superintendent of Police.
Robinson for months past was the
officer In, charge at Delaware niver
pier No. 78, at tho foot of Snyder ave
nue, tho expeditionary depot whence
millions of dollars of supplies flowed to
the army overseas.
With the last week, he was trans
ferred from that post to the adminis
trator's division, general supply depot,
Twenty-first street and Oregon avenue.
His, ten-day leave, beginning lust Tues
day icxplres Friday, December 13.
There Appears to be Indisputable au
thority for a rumor that before next
Friday, uu order will Issue from Wash
ington relieving Captain Robinson from
nctjve military set'lce.
On his return to civil life, his resuniD-
' tlon of the? office of Superintendent of
i l'.ollce will be nutomatlc. Whether he
Iwlir displace Acting Superintendent
1 Mills as the defnoto head of this city's
police or return to limited authority Is
up to Director of Public Safety Wilson.
It Is believed Lieutenant Colonel Charles
Hatch will have some voice In the mat
ter also.
Shorn of Power by llutth
Robinson was shorn of most of the
power of tho superlntendency when
Colonel Hatch cam here as the law-eu-fotolng
officer for the Navy Department,
charged with protecting thousands of
pallors here from flourishing vice con
ditions. Colonel Hatch's dissatisfaction with
lnrnl nnlicp management led to the ele-
'vatloti of Captain William B. Mills 10
the rank of Assistant Superintendent of
Police and appointment as actlr.g super
intendent with the virtual control of po
lice matters. Robinson, although re
taining tho title of superintendent, was
relegated to supervision over the police
payroll, uniforms, the van stables and
other routine nffulrs.
The superintendent In name then ob
tained a commission us captain In the
army and drew from the tity the dif
ference between his captain's pay and
the J4500 salary of superintendent.
To Retain Limited Authority
As a state of war still exists and
will continue until the peace proclama
tion Is signed Colonel Hatch will re
main here and keep watchful eyes on
bootlegging and other forms of lawless
ness that prey on service men. On Rob
inson's return to city nan, tnererore, it
Is regarded as certain that he will exer
cise only limited authority until he quali
fies for a pension on the completion of
twenty years' service, wnicn win occur
within a year.

Motorman Arrested After ,M
Trolley Kills Youth
in Wagoil '
EXPECTED CAR TO HALT
Doctor Conwell Culls Upon
Church Memhcrs to Urge
Elimination
Investigation Is being made today of
the death of Benjamin Singer, nineteen
years "old, Fourth street below Ellz
water, wllo was killed last night when
a trolley car crashec Into a wagon .on
,whtch he wnH riding at Hecond and
Fllzwatcr streets, a Rapid Transit Com-1'
pany skip-stop corner. The motorman,
George Carson, Is under arrest.
'Singer was riding with Maurice
Smocltlcr, nineteen years old, 2f J Spruce
street. Smockler said lie thejght Fltz
wnter was a regular stop, and drove
across the tracks expectln', the trolley
to halt.
Appeal to church members to exert
their entire moral and political Influence
to have the skip-stops eliminated, was'
made yesterday by tho Rev. Dr. Rus
sell H. Conwell, In addressing more
than 2000 worshipers at Grace Baptist
Temple.
"Every citizen of Philadelphia." he
said, "should take a hand In bringing
Influence to bear to do nway with the
skip-stops of the trolley cars, that very
Insidious and dangerous system of pass
ing a street without stopping. It Is
Inconceivable to think that. In a city of
2,000,000 of inhabitants, with children
on tho streets and crossings at every
Corner, such a system should be In
operation.
"Wo nre especially interested In It
here, because of this church of more
than 3000 meihbers, and the other
churches In the vicinity with all their
worshipers. Not only does this affect
tho churches by carrying them an
entire block past their destination, but
It extends Its baneful Influence by
carrying 4000 students of the Temple
University a whole block every time,
up or down. These students are busy,
for they have to earn their own llvlnr
and work hard to get an education,
and then they nre obliged to ride
that extra distance." .
"It seemn strange to me, though I
am not well enough acquainted with
financial Investments to speak with any
authority on the subject. Yot I wil
remember the day when the Philadelphia
railways companies were combined, and
when four men are said to have inatfe
810,000,000 that they never earned. Now
they Insist that they can not stop to
accommodate tho people, of the city,"
j ne unueu jiaiiwnys, or Baltimore
Md.. have Indicated to the Puhtlp ,..
Ice Commission of that State a willing-
iichh in Huiuiuuii me BKip-stops at any
time designated, and In Atlanta, Ga.,
nil tho original stops have been re
stored except upon one outlying line.
