Depositors in the North Perm Hank
will lose more than $1,000,000.
One of the highest officials in the
state made this statement today.
This will be the net loss. While, the

financial jugglery which wrecked the
bank and which probably will result in
further arrests.
The amount may be higher, but nt
present the investigators sec a cold mil
Hon loss. Should nil accounts on the
books be collected and this is deemed
unlikely by the probers the figure
4 scarcely will change.
Calls Colflesh "Squealer"
Walter O. Colflesh is "a squealer."
Colonel Fred Taylor Pusey thus des
ignates the head bookkeeper at the
North Penn, who yesterday gave such
- Amazing testimony of the juggling of
accounts at thebank, at the sensational
further hearing of the cashier, Ralph
T. Moycr. The cashier is now held for
trial in $25,000 bail.
, - Colonel Pusey, who is the state's
chief prober in the bank wreck, denied
today that Colflesh was a state wit
ness at the hearing.
Colonel Pusey said Colflesh collapsed
under the fire of Assistant District At
torney Taulane.
"Colflesh," said Colonel Pusey, "did
not tell all. No, not by any means. lie
did not turn state's evidence. He squeal
ed; he collapsed." '
And Colonel Pusey added that the
man owes the bank far more than the
?200 which he admitted on the witness
stand. It was learned, from another
source, that Colflesh's overdrafts would
approximate $12,000.
Speaks In Military Terms
The colonel, who was quartermaster
of the Keystone Division in France,
spoke of the bank failure in military
1 terms.
fi.'Weli," he said, "we have had our
Mirmisn, we jam our artillery bar
rage. There was some machine-gun
firing and now we have the mopping up
to do and battlefield reclamation. We
must take the broken pieces and sort
them on the salvage dump to see what
we can save."
He changed the subject to the tenta
tive offers made by downtown financial
concerns which have offered to take
ci. over tne banK wncn a statement of its
affairs has been made.
"Offers," he said, "made by finan
cial institutions to take over the bank
still hold good. They depend, how
ever, upon the flotsam and jetsam wc
, are able to sho'w. The bank has an
excellent business location and a val
uable plant. The building itself is
Vrorth $100,000 and the vaults at least
$25,000.
"Under the new banking laws the
state bank commissioner has the power
to sell the assets of a bank, including
the plant, and can apply the proceeds
to the benefit of creditors. He can do
' this with the approval of the court."
,'" Directors Liable for Loss
"Are the directors liable for any loss
df the deposits?" Colonel Pusey was
1 asked.
''Yes," was the reply. "They are
liable and we shall exhaust these lia
bilities,"" "Could any of the bank officials dodge
liability by the transferring of their
property to some one else?"
"Emphatically not. We could get
i such property through bankruptcy pro
ceedings. Even it the transfer was made
before the bank failed we could go after
I j theproperty so transferred and re
cover It."
"Does not the position of the de-
tf posftors appear to be worse than ever?"
"be was asked.
"No," snapped Colonel Pusey. "Their

Gives Her Securities
She stood weeping nt the door of the
North Penn Hank today.
She was a woman of middle age,
poorly dressed.
Hinging of a bell brought n clerk
to the door. A whispered conversation
took place. The door closed and the
woman turned nway, pressing n hand
kerchief to her eyes. Ity this time she
was sobbing convulsively.
"What's the matter?" asked Patrol
man Crissy, of the Twenty-sixth and
York streets station.
"All my mother and I hnve in the
world is in the bank. Wc only hao
eight cents left. Neither mother nor I
had nnj breakfast this morning. Oh !
if I could only get my Liberty bonds out
of the bank then wc could have money

Crissy called to Patrolman' Hawkins,
tho other guard at the door. The tvo
big patrolmen tallied in low tones.
Then they walked up the steps of the
bank nnd pounded vigorously on the
door. The clerk again appeared.
"You tell Mr. Mucllurney (the re
ceiver) thnt he has got to come here,"
ordered one of the patrolmen.
The clerk disappeared and in a few
miuutes James W. MacBurncy's face
was seen at the grating.
"You've got to give this woman her
Liberty bonds. She's starving," the
patrolman said.
Tho receiver hesitated for n minute,
then he opened the door. The woman
entered.'

State Supreme Court Rules That
No Error Has Been Made
by Lower Tribunals
MEN MUST SERVE TERMS
The Supreme Court today denied the
petition for a new trial of the Fifth
ward murder case.
Acting" upon the plea of counsel for
Lieutenant David Bennett and tho live
patrolmen-defendants, the seven mem
bers of the court denied a rehearing of
the case on the ground that no error
had been made in the lower courts.
This means that the bondsmen of the
defendants will have to surrender the
convicted men to the West Chester court
to servo their sentences.
The defendants, with Lieutenant Ben
nett, arc:
Former Patrolmen John Wirtschnftcr
and Kmanuel Uram, and Patrolmen
Michael Murphy, Louis Feldmau nnd
Clarence Hayden. Hayden is a negro.
Lieutenant Bennett is now detailed to
the Moyameiising avenue und Dickinson
street police station.
The order for the surrender of the
convicted men will come from the court
nt West Chester.
At tho district attorney's officeV.it
was said that an appeal could he taken
for a new trial in the United States
Court if it was shown that the consti
tutional rights of any of the defendants
were denied them (luring the trial. It
was said, however, thnt as far as the
office here knows, nt no point in the

MOVEMENT
AS MAYOR
GROWING,
Congressman Declared Still to
Be a Possibility, Despite
Reports to Contrary
R0TAN, "PRACTICAL MAN,"
IS GIVEN CONSIDERATION
Committee of 100 Praised In
dependents Ready to Begin
Gas Attack
By OEOROK NOX McCAI,
Notwithstanding his assertion that
he would not be the candidate of a fac
tion, nnd thnt he would ouly accept a
nomination for Mayor from the entire
party, the name of Congressman J.
Ilnmpton Moore has again sprung into
renewed nnd conspicuous prominence on
the list of candidates.
There has been n genernl and voeifer-.
ous denial on nil sides that any deal
is oointcniplntcd ; that there is any deep
down maneuver or scheme to jockey the
situation to where the Varc organiza
tion wouM be compelled to decide
whether or not they would accept Con
gressman Moore as a candidate.
Even friends of Senator Vnrc are dis
inclined to believe such an attempt is
under way. There are those, however,
who insist upon the facts and decline
to take any other view.
The sudden playing up of Congress
man Moore's name in spite of his dec
laration lends, they say, additional
color to the report. Senator Penrose,
who has been in Washington for the
past two dnjs, is expected to return
in a day or so. He has had a fatherly
tali with the "big little man" from
the Third congressional district und
his coming is awaited with interest.
Acker Remains Silent
While A. Lincoln Acker is, and has
been, the first choice of the Republican
Alliance particularly, rather than of
.the Town Meeting party, that gentle
man has made no definite declaration as
to his intentions up to the present.
Should Mr. Acker decline to become
the target for political bowmen the
question of second choice becomes very
interesting, with the Moore arrange
ment slicked.
District Attorney Samuel P. Rotan
is seriously considered. He has n vig
orous nicutnlity, ' wide acquaintance,
political experience and tho various
other qualities that would render him
acceptable. Ho would size up to the
description of the man desired by Sena
tor Penrose. No "pussyfooting" iu his
campaign. He would be against the
Varc organization from the start.
The only obstacle in the way, as in
the case of Mr. Acker, is Mr. Rntiin
himself. Both of them, I understand,
hnve been repeatedly interviewed on the
subject, but hesitate to plunge into the
muck of a campaign thnt will be the
most objectionable this city has ever
seen. It is the horror of having one's
peccadillos picked to pieces before the
public. And politienl nnntomists will
be very industrious this fall dissectiug
candidates in tho limelight.
Rotan a "Practical Man"
The district attorney is regarded ns
the "practical man" from the political
standpoint who will answer the re
quirements of the workers, the seekers
after the loaves and fishes. At the
same time he would consistently fill the
vision of tho reformers ns to bruins and
a high grade of citizenship.
He would be satisfactory to the

of Investigators
NO TRIAL AFTER ACQUITTAL
By the Associated Press
Washington, July HO. One new ar
ticle of war and changes in thirty
others have been recommended by the
special board of officers nppointed early
in the war to investigate the nrmy
court-martial system. In making this
announcement today, Secretury Baker
said he soon would transmit the board's
report to Congress.
"It ma bo said." Mr. Baker said.
"that the board upon the whole fiuds
no radical defects in the system nnd it
attributes the greater part of the just
criticism not to inherent faults of the
system itself, but rather to the inex
perienced personnel called upon to ad
minister It nt n time of stress when
the great thing wns to get 4,000.000
men quickly in shape for the fighting
line."
The bonrd was composed of Major
General F. J. Kernnn, who organized
the service of supply in France; Major
Genernl John F. O'Rynn, who com
manded the Twenty-seventh (New York
National Guards) Division, and Lieu
tenant Colonel Hugh W. Ogden, judge
advocate, who served with the Rainbow
Division. Secretary Baker said these ofHcrra
were selected after the controversy over

Here is whnt Colonel McCain has
to say about the committee of one
hundred :
"The committee of one hundred
named by Mr. Coles and his assist
ants is icgarded by the Independent
Republicans as an admirable iiecc of

representative of the best element of
Independent Republicanism.
"The committee, however, cannot

TALKING OF MOORE
Congressman's Name Is Men

SOME IN FAVOR OF ACKER
Numerous members of the committee
of one hundred, which met in executive
session nt the City Club this after
noon, expressed their preference for the
selection by the committee of Con
gressman .7. Hampton Moore as candi
date for Mnjor.
These members expressed themselves
as confident that he would be the man
selected in preference to A. Lincoln
Asker or other men who have been men
tioned. Just before convening mnny members
said they had received newspaper clip
pings from an unknown source indors
ing John C. Winston, chnirmnn of the
charter revision committee, ns a candi
date. All efforts to find out from whom
these clippings came failed.
Wholo Committee to Pick Man
George W. Coles, chairman of tho
Town Meeting party, called the meet
ing to order and made it plain that the
selection for Mayor would be made not
by n subcommittee, ns previously rc-
i ported, but by the committee as a
whole.
Sixty-five members were present when
the meeting wan convened.
Among those present were five women,
Mrs. Archibald Harmon, Mrs. Julia
Lewis. Mrs. Max Margolin, Mrs. II. T.
Nichols and Sirs. Edward Blddle. Five
negro members of the committee were
also in attendance.
John Walton, a manufacturer, of the
northeastern part of the city, was slated
to be chosen chnirman of the commit
tee. His name had not been previously
mentioned in this connection.

publican city committee, today attacked
the personnel of the mminittee of one

manner in which it was named.
The city chairman declared a ma
jority of the new committee's members
"will take orders" from Senator Pen

Republican organization wnrd commit
tees are elected, "not selected."
He divided the membership of the
committee into four classes: manufac

TOLL OF DEATH 26
Day of Comparative Calm Fol
lows Prolonged Period
of Violence
GOVERNOR L0WDEN HOPES
FOR RETURN OF ORDER
Virtually Entire Militia Ready,
but Call 'to Action
Deferred
Ity the Associate! Press
Chicago, July SO. Comparative calm
marked this morning's situation in the
Chicago race ynr. No serious trouble
had been reported, the sporadic fights
were few and mostly between individ
uals, nnd in only one instance were po
lice compelled to shoot. In that case a
negro wns killed while resisting search
by two patrolmen. j
Governor Frank O. Lowden and other'
state nnd city officials were plninly en-
cournged by the diminishing evidences
of mob spirit. Although virtually ever j
mllltlnninn In the state wns either ini
the city or en route here, it wns indi
cated that they probably would not he
cnlled to active duty in the streets.
"I believe thnt wo hnve passed the
crisis," said Governor Lowden. "(If
course, the troops will rcmnin ns long
ns there is possibility of danger and
their services are nt the command of
the city authorities.
"I believe, however, thnt the mnnr
and chief of police arc right in refrain
ing from nsking for soldiers. Sending
the troops into the trouble district might
nrousc some antagonism and then
when the regiments were withdrawn
fresh trouble might break out."
Twenty-six in Official Death List
The governor questioned intcmrwers
closely about conditions in the riot dis
trict nnd also received reports from
Frnnk S. Dickson, niljutaut general of
the state, who toured the "black belt"
with Charles Fitzmorris, secretary to
Major Thompson. They took three
hours to go over the ground and re
ported to their chiefs that conditions
were satisfactory.
With the lull in rioting the police
took stock. They checked the coroner's
official death Hat of twenty-six and said
that was complete. They also found
that the list of injured reported to them
had increased to .'li", One policeman.
John II. Simpson, u negro, was killed
and upward of thirty were hurt In the
three nights of lighting.
The official list of twenty-six dead
included n dozen white and fourteen
negroes. Of these nil Jincl been Identified
except one white man and three negroes.
No women or children were dead, but
scores of them hnve been hurt, some in
the nctunl fighting.
"Gun Toting" Under Police Ban
Police today redoubled their repres
sive measures. Commanding officers
were given copies of n drastic law on
"gun toting" passed by the lust Legis
lature, and told to bring changes under
it whenever pocsible. All public gath
erings iu the South Side negro district
were forbidden, the prohibition extend
ing to a jubilee celebration of a chapel,
whose pastor assured the police that
he intended to counsel his fcllow-ue-groes
to be calm.
Few negroes went to work today. The
riots and the street car strike gave them
a double excuse for remaining home.
The most seriously affected district was
the stock jards, where only half the
working forces reported, despite heavy
police guards along the chief thorough
fares lending to the yards. The negroes
evidently kept under cover, ns almost
none appeared on the streets nnd the
railroads reported that there had been
no noticeable exodus of blacks from tho
city. Reports thnt the ".",000 southern
negroes who came to Chicago to get
the high war wages had begun to
drift South ngain were scouted by rail
road men.
The police committee of the city
Council nt n special meeting today au
thorized Chief of Police Gnrrity to
swear in ns many specinl policemen ns
may be necessary to restore order. Chief
Garrity snld he would deputize 1000
bpecial policemen nt once.
Alderman McDnnnugh made an un
successful attempt to have the commit
t- adopt a resolution calling upon Gov
crnor Lowden to use state troops in
quelling the disturbances. ' The alder
man said he had been shot at by negroes
twice in forty-eight hours nnd he be
licved the police were unable to control
the outbreak.

Railway express train were killed and
several scores of passengers were badly

Entangling Alliance and Sub
version of Power of Congress,
Opponents Assert
BOTH SIDES CONFIDENT
OF VICTORY IN SENATE
Dillingham for Reservations, He
Says After Conference
With President
HARDING NOT A CONVERT
Decision to Consider Colombian
Treaty Openly Establishes
Precedent
Ity tho Associated Press
Washington. July .-JO. Informal dis
cussion among senators today developed
thnt opposition to the specinl defensive
treaty with France which was sent to
the Senate jesterday by President Wil
on is likely to be centered along two
general lines that it is directly antag
onistic to the tradition of no entangling
nllinnees nnd that it subverts the con
stitutional right of the Congress to de
termine questions of war or peace.
Although the President has taken the
position that the treaty is not properly
an alliance, Senator Borah. Republi
can, Idaho, and others maintain that
it has nil the force of the alliances
which hnc been common among Euro
pean nations.
Likened to 'Article X
Tn the view of this group the treaty
will be evcji more in contradiction of
American traditions than Article X of
the leagne of nntlons covenant, tinder
which the members of the league would
"undertake to respect and preserve ns
against externnl nggrcssion the terri
torial integrity" of all members of the
league. .
In view of the administration neither
Article X nor the French treaty would
go-fiirthTr'tWln "the Monroe Doctrine In
curtailing the power of CongrcN to dC
clnre war. They argue that, while a
moral obligation is imposed bj such
ngreements, it is left to Congress In
nny specific case to decide by declaring
war or refusing to do so whether the
time has come to fulfill that obligation.
Advocates nnd Foes Confident
Most senators have refrained from
announcing any definite position re
garding the French treaty, but the
lenders opposing it declare it will be de
feated and thnt among those who line
up ngnlust it will be found some of the
Republicans who nre willing to accept
Article X of the covenant without res
ervations. On the other hand, the ad
ministration leaders say it is sure to hr
ratified.
Senator Dilliughnm, of Vermont, first
of the Republican tenators to sec Pres
ident Wilson today when he resumed his
discussion of the treaty with members of
the Senate majority, announced on
leaving the White House thnt he ex
pected to vote for the treaty with res
ervations. Senator Dillingham said he iiad a
very "satisfactory and delightful talk"
with the President, who nnswered
frankly many questions concerning the
negotiations nt Paris, including the
Shantung settlement.
No Shantung Statement Indicated
President Wilson did not indicate to
the senator that he would make a public
statement concerning Shantung, nnd
