LANE IS AGAINST RENTALS REDUCTION David H. I.nne, sage of the Republi can1 party, said today he did not view the present transit situation with any degree of alarm. Mr. Ianp nppeared nt his office in the Land Title ltullding nt 11 o'clock this morning for the first time since his Illness of several months, lie motored from Atlantic City yesterday. Aside from a slight pallor on bin jrrlMlcd face and the fact that he walks with the nld of a cane, the nestor of the Republican organization showed evidence of a return of his old-time irility. , , , air. Lane would not be inveigled into a discussion of the local political sit uation or of the controversy over ex penses of opernting the Municipal Court. Ho commented at length on the tran nit situation nnd the agitation for a reduction In rentals paid by the Phila delphia Itapid Transit Co. to under lying companies. "It was folly for any one to suggest mich a course at this time." Mr. I.ano said of the proposal to reduce rentals. "Manv of these, companies were bur dened 'by great expense years ago when tho individual lines were started. Financial Hurden Heavy . "They had to pay for franchises nnd they had to keep abreast of con stant improvements in transportation methods, and in many cases their finan cial bunlen was aimoi unueuruun-. "Now, when conditions improve, there are some persons who demand that the contracts entered into between the underlying companies nnd the P. R. T.- be annulled. "It must be remembered that the P. II. T. is the tenant in this case. Where would you find a landlord who would rednce the rent because one of his ten ants is not making as much money now ns he wns formerly. "It seems that as soon as a public utility like the transit company appears to be making progress financially there is always a tremendous criticism from n substantial majority of the people. "It should be remembered that street railways greatly increase the value of property." Mr. Lnne then pointed out tbnt the Market street elevated line had in creased property values in West Phila delphia ty approximately $200,000,000. This Increase was due alone to the ex tension of the elevated through that section, lie said. He pointed out that the property owner takes su'h increases as n matter of fart "end then sets up a howl if he thinks that tho transportation com pany happens to be making a little profit. "I paid $."0 a ihare for storks, nnd there was a period of fourteen years in which it cost me ?.S0 a shnre without counting the interest on the monej," he said.

The second crime to which I'nsqualc confessed, that of nn old woman who he sas he robbed and killed in Phila delphia, will not be brought home to him cither, according to the Philade lphia police. They doubt his story and sny it is unlikely that nn nttempt will be made to Indict him on the second murder charge. Kacos Ufe Imprisonment can bo proved The maximum penalty which could be exacted for these crimes Is life impris onment. "1'nless we dewlop new evidence," said Mr. Rennlnger nt Norristown to day. "I shall not make any attempt to have Pasquale tried for murder. It is always essential to proethe body of the crime In a murder case. We cannot do this nt present. We have only Pas pinle's confession that the baby was smothered under his coat and the body cast In the river. "Ills confession is not sufficient in the eyes of the law.

J., this morning was to the effect that early yesterday four men in an nu tomobile had driven up to Pasquale's funn, beaten the caretaker when he tried to kep them out. and then searched the house, breaking into a cache in the wall and carrying off either pnpers or monej . IJert I'pdykc, a neighbor, who has been caretaker nt the house at New (irctna since Pasquale's arrest, went into Lgg Hnrbnr last night and said that early the morning before he had been set upon and beaten by four men. Major Adams today was inclined to doubt the story ot the raid. "My men certainly hod nothing to do with it," said Major Adams. "Last Monday Captain Gearhart. with Major Lnrzelore and Mry Cougluin, went to the house at New Gretna and were sur prised there by" the newspaper reporters. Captaiu Gearhart and the others made u snow of digging to fool tho newspaper men. They really went for the purpose of looking up some bankbooks which Pasquale was thought to hnve hidden in the house. Hut they have made no visit since." May Have Sought Money Major Lnrzelere confirmed this state ment. Larzelere and Coughlln todny are in New York on business connected with attaching Pasquale's accounts in New York banks. The only theory advanced in explana tion of the alleged raid on the Pasquale farmhouse early yesterday morning is that perhaps some ono heard of the true import of the trip made by Cough lin, Larzelrre nnd Genrhart, nnd went on n little private treasure hunting ex pedition. There remains about $2500 of the money stoleii from Coughlln to be ac counted for. The authorities are now convinced that none of it is to be fouud at New Gretna.

In a whirlwind trip through southern Indiana today, Sena tor Harding continued his warfare against the Versailles League of Na tions nnd nuked for "a return to the constitution" through the election of a Republican administration nfid a Re publican Congress. Leaving Louisville. Ky., this morn ing, he wbb to reach Indianapolis during the afternoon nftcr numerous short stops for speeches from the rear plat form of his private car. Tonight he will speak in the Indiana capital and tomorrow night will wind up his trip with a speech in St. Louis. The places at which his train was to make stops during today included New Albany, Jef ftrsonvillc, Scottsburg, Seymour, Co lumbus nnd Franklin. Among the nominee's guests on' his Rpcclal train were Senator James E. atson nnd Rcvernl Republican nomi nees for Congress and lie spoke for tho election of each of them, telling his crowds that if they were to hnve a Re publican President it would be better to make n clean job of It and choose a Congress thnt would co-opernte with him.

Although the candidate spoko Into n voice-amplifying device, his words ap parently did ti"t carry to the edges of the crowd and thcte was much shuffling of feet and conversations which kept up a hubbub while he went on with his speech. Thoe standing in the rear of the big cnclosuie began to thin out after he had been speaking for scvcrnl minutes. "I nm unalterably opposed to the League of Nations with Article X in it," said the Republican nominee in re stating his league stand for the crowd at tho armory. He added thnt he did favor a new world order nnd "nn asso ciation of a society or a league of na tions" to promote international undcr 'tatullng, but could not offer n speciti; plan until he hnd consulted with the leading American minds, regardless of party." He bitterly condemned the failure of the State Department and the Depart ment of Commerce to work together to furnish American business with in formation nnd promised if elected to follow a policy which would include a "firm determination to protect all Americans wherevcrthey go on legiti mate errands."
