There nre few in stances of profiteering. The grocers do not hare the sugar to sell. At present there is no system in the sale of sugar. If n grocer has n stock on hand he sells it until it is gone. This condition will be regulated when John A. McCarthy puts wartime siiirnr rationing into effect next Tuesday. Mr. McCarthy, who Is vice president of the Pennsylvania Sugar company, lias Been put in charge of this work by the sugar equalization board of the United States food administration.. According to Mr. McCarthy, whole Halcrs have not hoarded ' sugar. The situation, it is pointed out, is the re sult of Great Uritain's purchases of sugar in thi market. It is the opinion of Mr. McCarthy, however, that with proper care and ra tioning the shortage may be overcome, In nil sections of the city the con ditions seem to be the same. The chain stores, evidently because of their superior warehousing facilities, still have n little sugar to sell, although some ot the stores in the chain have none left. Likewise many small in dependents have stocks they nre dis posing of to their regular customers, and some even tnke care of transient trade. Alio canvass m iuu i.j, ,iui, shows that stocks are low with no more in steht. Kcnorts from the various sec tlons indicate the same conditions exist everywhere. In many stores in north west Philadelphia the proprietors have signs. "No sucar posted in tncir win dows Italians nre clamoring for the sugar needed to moke wine, which they brew at this time ot year. Concrete evidence of the lock of eugar is the shutdown of the Frank lin Sueur Helming Company. 125 South Prlanna street Operations ceased at midnight last night. Refining slowed up as the stock of sugar on hand became slowly exhausted. Vhcu n cargo failed to arrive the re finery officials shut the plant. This is the condition in most refineries of the country, it is explained. Mnny, like the Pennsylvania Company, have contracted to sell their product to Great Uritain. The British jumped into the market and contracted for all available supplies some time ago. Ucveral carnivals in the Mnnayunk district have sugar to chance off. One carnival, on Shurs lane at Crcsson street, offers two pounds of sugar and two cans of peas nt ten cents a chance, and is doing a big business. .lust across the Green T.ane bridge, in Montgomery county, the residents of West Mannyunk arc conducting a carnival for the purpose of raising fuuds for the equipment of n new volunteer lira company. They nre running a sucar raffle nt live cents a chance. offering two pounds of sugar nnd n meat Iilnto to the holders of the lucky num ers. First Week Brings Issues to Parley Continued Troni Tnco One and who are contented nnd prosperous under a system of high wages, good living conditions nnd the best of home hurroundings. Old School Socialism Down near the front of the table sits John Spargo, nn Americanized Kug lish Socialist ot twenty years' stand ing, and Charles lidward Ittisscll, an other lending Socialist, both of whom repudiated advanced Socialism for its tinpntriotic stand during the war. Gavin Mr-Nab, whose name is sug gestive of the .Tnines M. llarric school of Scotch literature, has come all the way from Han Francisco to sit at the people's tnble. lie is n lawyer-student of industrial problems, and the man who settled the shipyard strikes on the Pacific coast. Paul Ij. Fclss, n youngish man, but n big manufacturer of Cleveland, sits facing llert M. Jewell, a member of the Federation ot Labor, with radical tendencies, who is a People's represen tative by virtue of his appointment by tne Department or Labor. In the Employers' group sit such men ' as J. W. O'I.eary. of Chicago, president ot the National Metal Trades Associa tion ; K. Pemberton Hutchinson, of Philadelphia, president, of the West moreland Conl Company; Leon F. Lnrce, of New York, full -bearded and sturdy nnd one of the big figures in the railroad world. The Chamber of Commeice of the country has its representatives seated at the Employers' table. Among them nre Harry A. Whrrlcr. of Chicago, for mer president of the Chamber of Com merce of the United States Earnest T. Trigg, president; of the Philadelphia Chamber ot Commerce; and John J. Itaskob, of Wilmington, Del., one of the dominantfigures in the great duPont enterprises nil of them instant nnd ut nil times in attendance nnd activity. Labor's Powerful Group Of the Labor group, besides Mr. Compere, there stand conspicuous M. T. Tighe, president of the Steel Work ers ; Frank Morrison, secretary of the American Federation of Labor; W. D. Mahon. of Detroit, head of the street car unions of the 1'nited States and I. H. Sheppnrd, of Iowa, executive head of the conductors' branch ot the Tfnlnmcn's Brotherhood. Slicppard is a forceful speaker, with an excellent comninnd of laugunge, nnd is second only to Mahon in oratorical power. One thing thnt hns attracted attention is thnt to half a dozen men In each group nre, relegated the actual work of the conference. They tnke the lend, spak for their colleagues, and by a sort of natural selection, nre forced into the limelight. Another notieenble feature is the gradual growth of the "warming up" process, tlio practical working of the "get-together" iden. The members of the People's group nre the best mixers. They realize that they are the mediat ing force between the groups of Capital nnd Labor. Their attentions are di rected mainly to the Labor representa tives. It is not with nny idea of curry ins favor, or any display of snobbish condescension. It is n frank effort to make the Labor grout) feel that a sincere desire animates the People's section to get in sympathetic touch and under standing with tlieiu. There is a betterninderstandlng grow ing among the Liihoritcs ns a result. They realize, I think, that friendly in tcrrtnirse, ns man to man, with those who may not be in full sympathy with them, does not Involve n snerifice of principle. Radicalism a Common Enemy Perhaps the most vjtal force thnt will bring these people together is the con stant menaces of radicalism, whose triumph spell defeat for Labor ns well ns Capital. The anarchist, the I, W. W:. the crackibrained Jlutslati agitator. th:BoUhevltT are euemlne of orgs nixed 1t labor ns much cs they nre of employing capitalists. The convention is dead against radi calism in any shape. Conservative lead ers, like Gompers nnd Morrison in the Federation of Lnbor, arc ami-radical and nntl -syndicalist. On this basis nlone, the representatives of Capital nnd Ln bor can come together. They can be ot mutual help. Ilut the golden rule, first to bo observed, is confidence in each other nnd n belief In each other's in tegrity of purpose. I bcllcvo this 13 being shaped for future action in the halt nnd committee rooms of the con ference. The big outstanding features of the first week are measures which require immediate' action; the Gompcrs's reso lution for the nppointment of a com mittee of six to adjust the differences between the steel workers raid the Steel Corporation, with the strikers return ing to work, ad interim, and the pro posal formulated by -A. A. Landon, of Buffalo, that an Industrial truce be de clared everywhere for three months, pending nctloti of the conference. Gompers's Effort to Fnil I have outlined the reasons for the belief that the Gomners's nronosal will not receive indorsement. On the surface it appears incongruous for r.' body bf men committed to arbitration or nny other successful form of settlement for Industrial disputes, at the outstart, to reject tlio first proposal for arbitratiop. But the present steel strike presents nn unusual phase. It is confessedly in the hands of radical members of the Ainnl gamntcd Association, and, in this num ber, I do not include President Tighe. The strike, it is nsserted, except in cer tain districts, i's n failure. The men are returning to work. To undertake nrbltrntion now would give encourage ment to the radical leaders and convey to the Ignorant alien element the im pression that they had won, which would be an encouragement to further strikes. The proposition presented by the neo- plo's group for a truce in country-wide strikes, pending tne attempted adjust ment of lnbor disputes upon broader and more equitable ground, is the next most important feature, lne only doubt np pears to be, if adopted, can its pro visions be enforced? Would the strik Ine lnbor in California, or Mnssnrhu- setts, Illinois or Louisiana heed these requests, unless entorced by direct ap peal from the White House? While labor has formulated its de mands, ns was anticipated, including recocnition of unions, collective bar gaining, eight-hour day and kindred principles, the employers have gone a trifle further than was expected in their declaration. They have displayed their hand openly. They hnvc justified the statement tlint they were willing to make I concessions nnd adopt a conciliatory at titudc. In discussing the open shop, they concede that "fair argument nnd persuasion" nre permissible in turning an open shop into n "closed union." Coercion for this purpose, however, is condemned. Another free admission is the right of employes to strike, couched in the following terms: "In private industry the strike or the lockout is to be deplored, but the right to strike or lockout should not be de nied ns nn ultimate resort, after all pos sible means of adjustment have been exhausted." WANTED TO BORROW MONEY Man Charged With Breaking Into Saloon Gles Patrolmen This Excuse "I merely wanted to borrow n little money. Tliis wns the excuse Lawrence Arthur, of Forty-second nnd Thompson streets, gave for entering the saloon of Fred Felt, Fifty-second street nnd li Irani nvenue, this morning while the proprietor was asleep. Patrolmen Coombs and Bradley no ticed that n side door of the saloon had been broken from its hinges. They also saw a man waiting in an auto mobile. The mini in the car gave his nnme os Axilla Seward, of Spruce and Camac streets. He and Arthur were arrested charged with forcible entry. Arthur, accord ing to the police, broke into the Tilacc nnd Scwnrd signaled him whenthe two patrolmen approached. Nothing wns stolen from the saloon. The prisoners were each held In $S00 bail for a further hearing by Magistrate Harris. 382 DIED DURING WEEK Deaths Same Period in 1918 Num bered 3234 In Influenza Epidemic Deaths throughout the -city during the week numbered .i.SU, compared with 3'l dijring the corresponding week Inst year, when the epidemic of iiillu enzn wns nt its height.

The explosion occurred early Tester - day morning nt Green street wharf. Delaware river. The death list is now six, Alfred Falter, 23H0 Kerns street. having died today at tho ltooscvelt Hospital.' The ciirnrctte stubs and candles were . found by Frank Paul, of tho coroner's office, who also found in pockets of swenters which had been worn by the workmen three packages of different brands of clgnrcttcs. The burned stumps found on the flooring of the mess room were of the same brand ns some of those found re maining in the three boxes. The theory evolved by Coroner Knight thnt nn open flame or light caused the blast Is declared to be borne out further by the statement of Bernard Nyson, one of tho ship's crew, who snld thnt oip of tho workmen had given him n cignrctte out of the box he had. J.J1C VnCHlUUl. illll. Ul'lUK IIIUIHCU 10 the Green street wharf, and not being under steam, nor yet in service, is held by Coroner Knight to be n pnrt of Philadelphia, so to speak, nnd he will not permit the vessel to elenr until his investigation of the explosion is fin ished. The ship was scheduled to clear for n Mexican port, in ballast, for a cargo of petroleum, Thursday, tho repairs, needed after the blast of yesterday, re quiring but little time. C. P. Bramble, 1131 Mt. .Vernon street, one of the fourteen men working over the No. 4 tank, amidships, when the blast went off, will be examined in the coroner's office ns to his knowledge of whether a lighted candle wns burning where the men were nt work, nml also if any of the workers smoked cigar cttes. Coroner Kniclit will have a chemist report to him whether a sudden inrush of nir into Np. 4 tank, caused by the drilling of the one-hnlf-inch hole in the flooring nbove it. could nnve caused nu ignltidn of gnsollne fumes. Kmburg, n watchman on the ship, nnd Christlnnson, the second engineer, swore they had ordered a cignrctte ex tinguished and a lighted candle put cut, respectively, about twenty minutes be fore tlio explosion. The five men whose deaths occurred yesterday have been identified. They were : Benjamin Goldberg, thirty-seven years old, 220 Fitzwnter street; John Smokiilslti, thirty-six years old, of 507 South Front street: Itobert Taylor, twenty-two yenrs old, 1008 South Ninth street, and Joseph Gossick, 118 Clymcr street, nnd Jacob l'cldmnn, 151M North Sixth street.

I Vare Assessments on Officehold ers to Play No Part in His Mayoralty Campaign DEMOCRATS STRENGTHENED Campaign expenses for the election of Congressman Moore as Major will be drawn from the same sources that pro vided tins funds fur the primary cam paign, it wns lrnrned today. The Moore united Itepubliean com mittee will not use political nscs. incuts made on officeholders by the Vnre-controlled city committee, accord ing to authoritative information from the Moore leaders.
