Bureau Is Fabrication
Manila, June 14. (By A. P.) W.
Cameron Forbes, joint hend with Major
General Wood, of the presidential
mission of inquiry, denied today the
statement Issued by the Philippine
Press Bureau at Washlneton that
declarations made by Igorrote chiefs to
inc mission had neon made at tho In
stance of American missionaries. The
Igorrotcs made statements opposing in
dependence for the Philippines.
"It was a foolish charge and one
which can be disproved easily," said
Mr. Forbes, who is a former Governor
General of these Islands. "The con
ference with the Igorrotes waa at
tended by chiefs of the different trlbea
and no one tried to influence them in
expressing their views.
"The laorrotes are intellieent and
know what they are doing. The attack
made from the other side Is a pure
fabrication and has no basis."

Improvement Ase'n Again3t
Proposal Mrs. Toogood
Calls It Political Trick
ADDRESSES WOMEN TODAY
At a meeting of the Germantown and
Chestnut Hill Improvement Association
last night resolutions were passed pro
testing against tho proposed division of
the TwentV-SACOnd Wnrrl Mra TCranaf
Toogood will address the women voters
of the ward upon tho subject this after
noon In Vernon Hall.
William H. Emhardt, president of
the Improvement nBSoclatlon, presided
last night. It Is declared In tho resolu
tion adopted that partition will multiply
many agencies and be not a help but a
hindrance. The Twenty-second Ward,
or Germantown Township, It is pointed
out, has been n historic unit for many
years, and Its partition would break up
Its civic Mpirit and the various agencies
advancing its intcrcsta.
The resolutions express the unquali
fied opposition of the meeting to the
partition as a step backward, a move
that will weaken the Influence of the
ward, and a thing that Is against the
thoughts nnd desires of'the people.
Hearings to Re Held
Commissioners appointed by the court
to conduct hearings oil the proposed di
vision arc William B. Murphy, chair
man; Howard Smith, J. Lee Patton
and George Gca&ey.
Hearings will bo held as follows: In
Chestnut Hill on Friday night, In Im
maculate Conception Hall on East Chel
ten avenuo on June 20; in Vernon Park
Hall June 22, and at Seymour street
and Germantown avenue June 20.
"The only argument In favor of the
fietltlon as far as we can see," accord
ng to Mrs. Toogood, "Is that it will
make the upper part of the word Inde
pendent nnd the lower part organiza
tion nnd thus please tho politicians and
save them much trouble. We think It
Is a dreadful thing to sacrifice the old
crganitatlon that has lasted a hundred
j ears or more ,to tear it apart. Tho
citizens are nil opposed to It. We will
bring the matter before all the organi
zations of the ward and the people."
According to Mr. Bmhardt, the en
tire affair has come to a crisis so quickly
it has taken the people by uurprise.
hvery effort la to be made, however, to
acquaint the people with the facts In
tbe case, ho said, and to have ndequute
representation at the hearings.
Sees Better Protection
On en B. Jenkins, who presented tho
partition petition to tho Court, defended
the project. "The main reason for the
division wanted," ho said, "Ib that the
samo area, divided Into two wards, will
receive more police protection, more
firemen, now cewcra and street paving,
ond better facilities all around. It ha
always been this way in the paat when
n ward has been divided.
"In tho matter of handllnir the want
committee alone, just consider. We now
hate about fifty-four divisions In the
ward, with the proposition to increase
them to sixty-four or sixty-six divi
sions. This makes the ward committee
unwieldy. Since the women have won
the vote. also, it will sooner or later h
necessary to divide the divisions arstn.

22D WARD DIVISION
MEETS OPPOSITION
FRANKLIN SQ. SITE FAVORED
The Phlladctphfa-Camdcn Bridge will
bo the best bridge In the world, both
from an artistic and engineering stand'
point, according to Ralph Modjeskl
nc is chalrihnn of the Board of Engl'
neers which made tho report concerning
the proposed Delaware River Bridge and
made this assertion yesterday after the
public hearing in City Hall.
The hearing wan called to discuss the
Franklin Square-Penn street site for
the brldgo and served (o bring forth
manr conflicting views. A majority of
those present, including Mayor Moore,
indorsed tho site named and expressed
the belief that it waa tho rest possible
one.
Designers Limited In United States
When asked how the proposed bridge
would compare with others, Mr. Mod
jeskl made the prediction stated and in
discussing the subject generally added:
"There are different conditions to be
met in the United States from those In
other countries. The requirements of
navigation arc much more strict, so that
limitations are mado on tho designers of
hridrres. In Enron n bridle is de
signed and erected, and the vessels and
steamships which go under the bridge
must accommodate themselves. If tho
bridge is too low for their funnels, they
must have collapsible funnels.
"In America a bridge must be ac
commodated to tho craft that arc to go
under It. The Eads Bridge In St. Louis
is a beautiful bridge, with arches, but
another one like it could not be built.
The State law requires suspension
bridges, and no plcra can be erected for
arches."
In this connection Mr. Modjeskl men
tioned the opportunity In the construc
tion of the Delaware River Bridge to
bring out the utmost beauty of which
American suspension bridges are ca
pable. This beauty, as described by the
engineer, Is to be gained by observing
the most compelling of esthetic princi
ples, that of unadorned simplicity.
To Use Advanced Ideas
"We hope In the Delaware River
Bridge to express the furthest advance
esthctlcally In American bridges, as
well iiH to include the most advanced
engineering work." said he. "The span
must be very long, but wo will try to
have it as simple and graceful as It can
be made. Some American bridges have
been too much decorated with curlicues
and ornate additions."
The most difficult featuro of the
bridge construction Is not, ns might be
judged from the debate into which vari
ous groups of interested citizens have
entered, the choice of sites for Its ter
mini, but the Intricate and lengthy
mathematical calculations necessary to
mnkc the great span of the structure
equal to the stress that will be put upon
it. A miscalculation here would prob
ably mean the death of hundreds, with
the collapse of tbe bridge.
"The Delaware River Bridge does not
present more or less difficulties, I be
lieve, than the others I have been en
gaged on," said Mr. Modjeskl. "The
main span, which will be about fifty
feet less than the Quebec Bridge, is the
most difficult part of the work. We
must calculate accurately all of the de
flections, not only the strain put upon
the bridge by traffic, but the changes
due to temperature, and other ele
ments." Approval of the Franklin Square
Penn street site was given at the hear
ing by the Philadelphia Chamber of
Commerce, Camden Chamber of Com
merce and North Philadelphia Business
men's Association.
Joseph K. Costcllo, secretary of tbe
Bridge Commission today requested
projective speakers nt the next two
public hearing to forward their names
to the commission offices in the Widener
Building, This will enable a program
to be drafted in advance. Tbe Spring
Garden street site will be discussed to
morrow and the Washington Squaro lo
cation Friday.

SEVERAL SUSPECTS NABBED
The search for Louis Lively, sus
pected slayer of seven-year-old Matilda
nusso. of Moorestown. N. -T.. con
tinues with unabated fervor. The au
thorities believe that the chase In nar
rowing down to a point where they will
have the Nflrro In custody before to
morrow night.
Some Idea of the vleor with which
tho man-hunt Is being prosecuted can
be gleaned from the fact that John
Bradshaw, chief of the Moorestown po
lice, had his first sleep last night for
three days. That, too, was only a nap
snatched between motorcycle trips, and
tho chief has not removed his clothes
since the discovery of the girl's body.
Ellis Parker. Burlington County de
tective, who has charge of tbe case,
announced this afternoon that printers
wero rushing out circulars with a com-1
pleto description, Bertlllon measure
ments, past record nnd photograph of
Lively. These will be distributed broad
cast throughout the country.
More Suspects Picked Up
Several more suspects have been
taken In various parts of New Jersey
and Pennsylvania, but Burlington
County detectives believe that the right
man Is still nt large.
A thorough combing of the swamps
about Rancocas Creek is now going on
following tho report that n man an
swering Lively'a description had been
seen lurking near a place known as
Irish "Wharf. Walter P. Stephens, a
fanner living near that place, told
Sheriff Edward II. Flagg, Jr., that ho
had seen the man hiding in the bushes
as he was returning home yesterday
afternoon. Edward V. Stone, n deputy,
was sent with a posse to make a search
of the neighborhood.
Four separate posses are scouring
sections of New Jersey nnd Pennsyl
vania In automobiles. Each group Is
acting on Information received that a
man resembling Lively haB been seen,
or is covering a district where he may
be expected to attempt to get work. The
man had but the $18 pay he collected
In this city Saturday and the police be
lieve he will soon have to get work or
fctarve.
Detective Parket said today : "Lively
collected his pay at the brush factory at
Front and Arch streets, Saturday morn
ing. He was able to get it, despite the
publicity attending the discovery of the
murder, because ho was employed there
under tho name of Louts Roberta. He
was paid $18.
"We havo no satisfactory Informa
tion as to his posslblo destination after
being paid. We know Llvely's wife was
not at home at the time of tho crime,
and we feel she doesn't know where he
is hiding."
DOCTORS AGAINST LIQUOR
N. J. Medical Society May Oppose
Alcoholic Prescriptions
Atlantic City, June 14. Indications
at the opening session of the lKCth an
nual convention of tho Medical Society
of New Jersey, In the Hotel Chelsea
here this morning, are that a declaration
agalnBt prescription of nlcohollc
remedies may be placed on record.
Former President W. Blair Stewart,
of the Atlantic County Medical Soci
ety, said be believed not more than 10
per cent of 2000 members had qualified
to prescribe liquor by securing the forms
from the Federal revenue officials.
"It somehow impresses me," he said,
"that prescribing alcohol links tho pro
fession to the barroom, and It has been
my experience that a majority of those
who seek whisky prescriptions could as
well do without It. I stand with thi.
investigators who tested the effects of
alcohol as medicine and reported that It
failed generally to be proved as bene
ficial as substitute medicines employed
in place of liquor."
Dr. Philander A. Harris, of Pater
son, the president of the State Society,
presided over the convention ; Dr.
Alexander McAllister, of Camden, sec
retary of the State Board of Medical
Examiners, la spoken of for third vice
president, which office leads to the
presidency.
