He says the city needs the hand of Congressman Moore to give it a police force which will actually prevent crime. The statement follows : "Judge Patterson is reported to de plore the fact that the Tifth ward mur der has been mentioned in discussions of his candidacy. "The Tifth ward murder lias ever had a curious faculty of provoking the phrase 'deplorable' from Vnre choices for Mayor Two years ago Mijor Smith was told that Policeman Eppley had been murdered by New York thugs at n Fifth ward polling place The Mayor said 'deplorable' before going out to play golf that afternoon Expected to He "Deplorable" "It is to be expected that the Vare plcked candidate for Mavor would re gard any discussion of the Fifth ward case as 'deplorable ' The nix police men who now are languishing in the West Chester jail for carrying out what they believed to be the express or im plied wishes of their superiors likewise consider their present situation 'de plorable' as well ns the acts for which they were responsible. "The Fifth ward murder, as well as all other crimes growing out of the abuse of police power, is 'deplorable,' but, like Banquo's ghost, it will not down.

Moore Questions Regularity Regularity of the Vare organization in Elating a former Democrat for sheriff is questioned by Congressman Moore, Independent candidate for the major alty. Addressing n meeting of Fifteenth ,ward workers last night at Nineteenth street and Fairraount avenue, the con gressman scored the Vare orcanizntfon for slating Daniel F. Wade, former Democrat, on their ticket for sheriff. "Where, oh, where is party regularity now;" exclaimed Mr. Moore. Judge Charles L. Rrown, head of tjie Municipal Court, greeted the cdh gressman and his campaign party at the entrance to the meeting hall. Congressman, you arc going to carry this ward," was the salutation of the head of the Municipal Court. Millions for Vares, He Says Congressman Moore attacked Sen ator Vare's contracting business and charged that he had collected nearly $15,000,000 from the city in the last twenty-one years. Alleged efforts to line up city em ployes behind the organization ticket were attacked by Congressman Moore and he charged that small merchants in South Philadelphia tvere being harassed because they displayed his campaign posters. "The contractor bosses were in such confusion that they delayed until the last minute to pacify their followers," said Mr. Moore. "They even had to go into the Democratic party to find a candidate for sheriff. "What will Senator Martin and Mr. Lane say about regularity now? What was the reason for going out of the Republican party to find a candidate? Are there not enough Republicans to satisfy the Vare appetite? Who is Mr Wade? for himself in which ho "I do not Intend to aslc nny man to vote for me," said Judge Patterson to day. "My position is this: If the people want me, I nm willing to answer the call. If they do not wnnt me, I am perfectly willing to stay where I nm. However, my nominntion is sure!" The judge was moved to make this statement, in nnswer to n question about the committee of lawyers which it is said is being formed to assist in the Vnre campaign. It has been reported that the lawyers were being "coerced" by Judge Patterson to unite into such a enmpuign committee." "Oh, you menn the committee which I did not coerce," said the judge, "but which Murdoch Kendrick said I did. Well, I knew nothing about that com mittee until I rend of it in the news papers," Judge Patterson conferred with a few of the Vnre party enthusiasts this morning. "I have no program of speaking dates nrrnnged ct," said the judge, "The only speech engagement I have is on Monday afternoou. At that time I have been nsked to address the 'lost legion' " and the judge smiled. Murdoch Kendrick called the Thomas Robins committee of 1000 the "lost legion," last week. Judge Patterson's campaign head quarters in the Straw-bridge Building, Thirteenth and Chestnut streets, were opened today. Mr. Robins, former Progressive, who is organizing the committee of one thousand which will direct the Patter son campaign, is in charge of the now headqunrters. Formnl opening of the Patterson campaign will be staged Monday after noon, when Judge Patterson will ad dress the members of the committee of one thousand. Organization of the committee is nearly completed, nccording to Mr. Robins. Judge Patterson's supporters hnve made public n letter written the judge by the late Major Blankenburg com mending the jurist's stand against dual offlceholding. Mr. Blankenburg's letter wns writ ten nfter Judge Patterson had refused to appoint Charles T, Pommer, then a member of council, a tipstaff in his court. Pommer had the support of the Republican lenders, but Judge Patter son insisted he would not make the appointment unless Pommer resigned from councils. Pommer did resign nnd was appointed. He is now on the Vnre ticket as a candidate for magis trate. Another letter made public was writ ten by Judge Patterson to James M. Simlster, president of the International Association of Firefighters, showing his attitude on the question of better pay for firemen. U. S.

How tho Deal Was Made Here is the inside story of Horn's nomination as told today by his friends who were in on the card game: Horn, according to his friends, was sitting in the back room of a saloon Across from his home Inst Monday eve ning about 8 o'clock, playing pinochle, when two "prosperous looking men" en tered. Across their ample nbdomens were heavy watch dinins, big enough and bright enough to catch the cyo at once. Horn had just melded 100 aces and wbh in a good humor. One of the strangers, nccording to his story, drew close to him nnd said : "Mr. Horn, we hnve been looking over the field for a good man to run for Council nnd have decided that yon are the man. It is a good job nnd pays $5000 a year, with almost nothing to do but draw your salary. But. in addi tion to the $5000 salary, there are chances for n councilman to make n great deal more money in fnct, to get rich." Horn, still more interested in the gnme of cards thnn politics, replied that he had no objection to running for the Council If his candidacy did not put him i omense or trouble. He was assured, according to the story told today, that there would be no expense. One ot the men then said that 200 or 300 of Horn's friends were willing to sign the npeossnrv netition nnd prouueeu n paper, which Horn signed. The strangers then walked out and Horn nccame again aD sorbed in the pinochle game. Alt dnv Tuesday Horn wns undis turbed. But yesterday he was startled bv the tempest over his candidacy.
