Gloom hung this morning over the de fendants In the case of Sid HnttlcliI nnd the twenty defendants who are on trial here in the Circuit Court before Judge It. 11. Itnlley. nt a result of the report that one of their ranks had become n "traitor" and would turn stntc'n evi dence. A itirp-ise was created Tester day when the state's counsel announced In court that It had no evidence ngaint Isaac Ilrewer, who was indicted with Hatfield and the other defendants for the s'ajlng of the set on Kaldwln-Kelts operatives nt Matcwan, on May 111, ll20. nnd asked that the Indictment against him be nolle prosed. Later In the day they learned the Mate was planivng to spring a coup on them nnd thnt the reason Hrewer's in dictment had been nolle prossed was because he had p-otnied to take the Htand for the commonwealth against Hatfield and the others. Urewer is an Important witness at the trial and the defense hnd built up their cae around him. He was shot in the neck in the battle at Mntcunti. "They nre not going to spring any thing on us by having Brewer turn Mate's evidence," Attornej .T. J. Co niff, chief counsel for the defense, dc claied. "We lime his sworn statements and we will be ready for him if he takes the stand against the defendants. He will have to perjure himself." 1tn nnt.'t , iiu ntu Knrrti tf Tin .! the truth." Sid Hatfield, the principal ; ii vuu i tii ur1 huj u "" - defendant in the case, declared Sid .More Subdued, Hut Still Confident Sid and the remaining twenty de fendants were brought into the court room In the sheriff a few minutes before the trial started. The former had lo,t fcome of his debonair disposition after his night in the crowded Jai.. The men complained that they wore overcrowded an that they had poor beds to sleep ou. "We.l. I s;xut my first night in Jail," declared H.itfield as he dropped Into h s chair behind hK counsel. "This was the first thut I was ever in jail in my life, but I won't be then long. ' ' Shortly after court convened Mrs Hatliolil, th former widow of Mayoi C. C. l.esterman, of Matcwan. wiio was alnin at the time the Felts detective was shot to death, arrived in the court room. She is a duelling beauty nnd is de clared to be the prettiest woman In Mingo county. Hatfield married her two weeks alter her husband was Killed. The wife took a -oat among the specta tor and smiled sweetly upon her hus band. The defense encountered a setback wheu th court ruled that no members of the I'nited Mine Workers of Amer ica could sit on the jury in the case. This matter precipitated a bitter clash between oppo'ug counsel. Judge Uai.ej declared 'hat h wanted a jury which was free from prejudice and in xiew of the fact that the killing arose over a controversy between the operato s and the union officials, he would hate t'i rule against jurors who arc members of the United Mine Vorkers.

City Gas Operation Opposed by Mayor Continued from race One possible results during the balance of the term of the lease. Production Cost Increases "In all Industries there were marked increases In the cost of production na n direct result of the great war, which, In many cases, are now In course of readjustment. The increase in the cost of making and distributing gas In Phil adelphia for the five months ended De cember 31, 1020. over 1017 was thirty one cents per thousand feet. "There have been two additional spe cial ,nnd Important developments, which must be considered as permanent In Ihelr effect upon the future of the business. "The greatly enlarged use of gas: Twenty-three yenrs ago the chief use of gas was as an illuminant. consumed through open flame burners. Toilav "UU per cent of the gas sold In the larger cities of the I'nited States Is used for cook In z food heating water nnd other domestic fuel purposes, nnd in Indus trial establishments as n source of power and for various manufacturing Processes requiring the direct applica tion of heat ; 10a per cent Is used to heat to incandescence mantle burners, and only about 2 per cent Is used through open llame burners, the substi tution for which of incandescent man tles would give a greatly better light and cut in half the consumption of gas. "Then the enormously increased dc maml for the distillates of petroleum, for the production of energy through interna' combustion engines, which has compelled oil refiners to develop the proc ess of "cracking" gas oil under pressure, thereby making it possible to convert into gasoline this product, so that the balance left for use in pun making becomes each year less than in the preceding year, and will unques tionably shortly become wholly inade quate to the demand. "This means the gradual, perhaps rapid, disappearance of oil us an ele ment to any material extent in the pro duction of gas, and In the judgment of those who have carefully studied the kiidjcci ami me situation manes it nee- ,, .i .. r-.-s.ii, uiiii iuv UMUV13 uuu ninuiurT 'it gas works should readjust their present oi. orations nnd plnn the extensions of their manufacturing plants so as to promptly reduce nud eventually elimi nate the use of oil, "These nre grave problems. The interest of the city, the welfare of the public, the satisfaction of the consum ers, the convenience of life, demand that a solution shall be found, and no doubt it can be found, which will in sure u continued and adequate service, a suitable nnd compensatory return to the city and to tic operator, the con tinued development nnd upkeep of the gas works, nud as low a rate for gas as the changing conditions of manu facture nnd cost will permit."

Talk about the return of the prodigal son nnd the fatted calf which was brought forth for his enjoyment ! Well, he hud nothing on today's win ner, and the welcome that has been pro vided for him upon his return to the City of Brotherly Love after an ab sence of thirty-one years. Hero Mr. Pnrvin returns to his boy hood home, and ns a result of his first evening In this city he receives $100. Pretty soft, we think. Only wish some one would hand over $100 to us when we come back here after a visit to some other city. You sec it's this way. Mr. Parvin was bom in Germantowu nnd left here when he was five years old. He has since mnde bis home in Chicngo and Kon-du-I.ac, Wis., but owing to busi ness matters he came back to Philadel phia last Friday. Then last Friday eveniug he wont into n hotel for his first meal in this citv after many years, when, like all other visitors here, his attention was attracted by the lim'rick contest in the Evenino ruuLlc Lkdoeii. Not being superhuman, Mr. Parvin. like the rest of us. could not resist his desire to take n shot at the $100 prir.e. He wrote out his offering ou the back of the menu and sent it in to this office. Then the next day he went on a trip to New York Upon his return to this city yesterday afternoon he was in formed of the fact thnt his lim'rick lino won the 5100 prize. How's thnt for u "welcome-home" gift? Oh, boy ! I.caa us to it. Mr. Pnrvln's father nnd grandfather were both natives of this city. His grandfather was the Rev. Robert J. Parvin, who was the first rector of St. Paul's Episcopal Church on Old York road, near Ogontz. He occupied the pulpit in this church from 1MI1 until hfs death in 1807. Pnrvin Hall, one of the church buildiigs nt the rear ot the ed'fice. was named in his honor nnd was built by Jay Cooke, the emi nent financ.er of the Civil War period. Mr. Pnrvln's' family nt the present time is living nt Fond du Lac, Wis., and he has decided thnt his two chil dren. Robert J. Jr., nine years old, and Virginia Lee. five years o'd. shall cacti hove half of the $100 prize he has won. In fact. Mr. Pnrvin has been so de cidedly pleased by the warm welcome given to mm Dt- rni auc-pnia tnat n city to live He is engnged'ln sales promotion work nnd also has done som WriUhK ,MnuJ1M,rllm-rIrn'iCia.t'nnS and he thinks tliat lim rtckin is one of the greatest of Indoor sports.
