If ths plnii should be accepted In

TJic bills will be returned before

It wils decided not td return the bills
Immediately, police said, so as to give

to clear np certain details of the case.
Chief of these are Identification of the
murdered stranger and the police
theory that Wanderer's alleged Infatua

have been the motlvo for the crime.
Confronted with the girPln his cell.
Wanderer, for the first time since his
arrest, lost composure momentarily,
but firmly denied the girl had had any
influence on his desire to be free.
The girl. Julie Schmltt. told the police
she bad known Wanderer some time nnd
had gone to an amusement park with
"him several times, but did not know he
was married. She was not held, as
police announced after questioning thnt
they were convinced she hnd no knowl

llnlds by federal agents on At
lantic City cafes Saturday cost tire
government ncnily $."000, It was
estimated today. v
Forlwo weeks prior to tlw raids
twenty-four prohibition enforcement
agents were stationed at the shore
resort. Their bills -for hotel nnd
mcnld wns 52088,
The agents spent a total of $143
for drinks In the various cabarets
under surveillance. Train fare for
agents totnlled ?112. A motortruck

for, $15 nnd warehouse' space ty store
the contraband goods cost ?2.". "N.
The' salaries of the agents for the
two weeks, an Item of, $1020,
brought the grand total to $4003.
.Special Dhpateh fo r.venlno PubHe Ltiotr
Atlantic Cty, July 12. Still moist
and contented. Atlantic City nnd Its
thousands of joyseekcrs nre nwnltlng
the next move on the part of the Phila
delphia prohibition enforcement agencies
which tried tp clnmp the lid on the
cabaret belt with a scries of raids Sat
urday. Officially Atlantic C.llv hollevps the
worst Is over nnd that henceforth the
federal enforcers of the Volstead law
stationed in Atlantic City will admin
ister the law without further raiding
visitations. ,-.
Hut neither the cabaret proprietors
nor the saloonkeepers, who are trying
to make both ends meet, with near-beer
;n'cs. are wagering a penny that J.
. Crowley, deputy chief of the fed
eral forces in Philadelphia, is not lurk
ing In the background, waiting to put
something over ns soon as rum begins to
reappear up nnd down the white Jight
belt where midnight sons foregather. In
other words, all bets are off.
Saturday's raids gnve Atlantic City
the biggest jolt,it hns hnd since prohi
bition became u fuet and not a theory,
without, however, materially diminish
ing the spirits of the habitues of the cab
aret area. All of the four big resorts
upon wnicn tne government raiders de
scended with a bang did a standing room
only business Saturday night. Yester
day crowds' drank "light stuff" by the
gallon and danced by the hour in the
glittering cafe's, for shore authorities
probably through resentment of the fed
eral intrusion, removed the Sunday
amusement lid and lost it effectually.
According to alt accounts the big
snore town was more than u little moist
after 12 o'clock last night. It is a gen
erally accepted fact that those who knew
the "sluns and could clve them without
a slip-up could get almost anything they
wanted" if they had the cash to pay for
it. More than one call for "ginger ule"
evoked something much stronger and
more expensive.
Ilmnnuel Katz, proprietor, of the
Moulin Ilougo on New York avenue,
from which twenty-five barrels of whis
ky were removed in the face of eurncst
protests Saturday, today engaged coun
sel to tell him hw to get back his $23,
000 worth, of wet goods. Mr. Katr.
claims to have a government permft
covering the storage of the wares in bLs
cellar. Ho says he told Crowley's men
about the permit, 'but as he did not
hnppen to have It in his pocket they took
the whisky unyhow.
Liquor icen in possession of federal
agents us they emerged Saturday from
the building housing Martin's, cafe did
not come' from the cafe, jays Henri
Martin, the proprietor, but was found
ju an apartment above. The apartment
has no connection with tho cufe, Mr.
Martiu fays.

KEEPUP P. R. T. FIGHT
United
Business Men to
Continue
War on Rentals
Tho United Business Men's Associa
tion will continue its fight against the
allegeck exorbitant lentnls" paid to the
underlying companies by the Rapid
Transit Co.
This ivas Indicated today by Sidney
F.crlc chairman of- the transit commit
tee nf the association.
He said, regardless of the outcome
of the transit' company's application for
a temporary fare increase, the associa
tion, through its attorney, C. Oscar
Beasley, will not discontinue its attack
or lli. rentals.
"It Is the feeling of our association,"
said Mr" Karle, "that the application
for Mgher fares and the rentals paid
the underlying companies by the P. It.
T. arc merged in the same issue. If
the P. R. T. did not have to pay these
exorbitant rentals, it would not have to
niv 1111 mailer mien.
The Public Service Commission did
not meet In executive sesion at tiarrts
burg today to consider the traction
company's request for nn order Insti
tutine hitrher fnre.s. made nt the henr-
Ing before the commlslon In City Hall
lost week. Absence of several commis
sioners w.'is nastcrueil nn the reason.
'A itri nfllrlal Mtntiil todav the city
would take no direct nctlon against the
rentals paid the underlying companies.
Tho rentals would be investigated by the
city, he added, but the facta" developed
simply would be studied tor uieir Dear
ing on- the question o higher fares.
