LIQUOR ROBBERY ATTEMPT
IS NIPPED BY BLUECOATS
Two patrolmen prevented thefts by
automobile thieves in Hie central nnd
northern sections of (ho city early to
day nnd in eaeli wise n robber Is ro
ported to hnve been shot during re-
votver fight.
rUrnlmnn Clark, of the htcventh
nnrl Winter ptrccts station, noticed
.iortlv after 1 o'clock that n door of
' he KlidinR nt 218 North Thirteenth
lirpcl had been broken open. 'J he
Dlace is used ns n storage house by
Andrew Forbes, n liquor dealer.
Find Truck Nearby
Clark telephoned the station, and Mo
tnrVvcle Patrolman Linden piled Pa
ttelman Gnv nnd Detective long into
Mb side car an.l hastened to Clark s
SwWnncc. When tbey arrived they
jw a .light truck parked in a small
street nearby. ... . .
Concluding that, the truck was to be
uieil by the conspirators to naul oil the
whisky and wines they expected to steal.
, the policemen hid lclr motorcycle bo-
hind a pile of boxes, nnd luy in wait.
It was half nn hour before anything
hanticnrd. Then a big touring ear
rolled quietly up, and parked before
the storehouse nnd two well-dressed nnd
dapper men got out. A third remained
at the wheel, later lenvlng-thc car also.
. i.aii. innn Htnrted toward the
mahri door of the warehouse the
policemen made for them on n run.
Klro on Tolicc
' One man. jumped for the wheel and
Matted the engine. The other two
leaped into the tonnenu, drew big auto
matic pistols nnd opened fire on tlie
1 police. The fire was returned, the men
in the machine leaning over the back
of the tonncau, using it as n breastwork-,
while the police dodged behind
boxes and poles.
,Finallv Patrolman Linden grew im
patient .ind slipped along close to the
ear, popped out nnd fired point-blank nt
on of the bandits. The ntnn rose, to
f. Ma leet, ciapeu ins mum over ms mkiu
ifr'east. reeled and feel in n heap on
tn car. . . ...
, The bandit beside him callously
pushed him off the seat, where he was
'n the wc.y, down to the floor of the
cir and continued shooting. By l',nt
jime the driver got his stalled engine
.'jolng.
Took Parilng Shot
' The bandit In the rear of the car took
one more shont Linden, and the officer,
dodged just In time, the bullet pene
trating a sign of the Sunday Breakfast
An-ociatiott and missing his head by u
narrow margin.
The automobile was headed up Thir
teenth street. By the time the police
cot into their cur and got it going again
the touring car had a good lead. Both
sides kept up firing, however, nnd the
rlinse proceeded up Thirteenth street to
Callow hill street, to Broad street, up
Ilroad street to Columbia avenue; then
the touring car was lost by the pur
fliers. The second battle occurred when Pa
trolman d'eorgo Stump, of the Park and
Lehigh avenues sTutlon. saw three men
in a touring car preparing to tow aa
another automobile at Thirteenth sheet
and l.ehigh a otitic.
When he, ipicstioned the men, one
drew n revolver and fired. All three
then jumped In the touring car and
started down Lehigh avenue. Slump
fired after them and saw one man top
ple oirr in the ear. The rubber fired
repeatedly at Stump, who returned the
shots from the shelter of trees.
The shooting mis heunl al the Park
and Lehigh inclines station and the
motor-bandit squad started after the
fugitives. The men escaped In the
uelgbboihooil of Sixth and Dl.iiuoiiil
streets.

Hoart Attack Seizes Assyriolo-
gist as He Discusses Plans
for Vacation
HELD CHAIR AT PENN
AND WAS 60 YEARS "OLD
Dr. Morris JnMrnw. Jr. known to
schnldrs the world over as an As.rlol
oglst and authorit.v on ancient 1'gypt.
died nt I o'clock this morning nt the
Jenklntown home of his fnther-ln-law,
Prank 11. Bnchmnn. n bunker.
Dentil caino almost unhernlded to the
scholar who had plumbed deeply the
lore of the ancients and who was re
garded as a profound writer on Bible
hitnry and literature.
Dr. Jastrow had been chatting with
his wife and other members of the fam
ily last night nnd wns in a cheerful
mood. They discussed the mention thej
had planned nf Northeast Harbor. Me.
At !:.'!0 o'clock Dr. Jnstrow's
face wns distorted with pain for
nn in stunt . the result of n heart attack.
He did not lose conseinusnevi, but hnd
to he assisted to bed when medical aid
wns summoned.
Family at Bedside
The scholnr was conscious almost to
the moment of death, although he was
unable to spenk. His wife and members
of her family were at the bedside when
he died.
Members of Dr. Jnstrow's fnmilj said
tlie funeral would be "private and nt
tiie convenience of the family." The
day wns not given.
Dr. Jastrow wns sixty enr old. and
freipiontl) watt. in a the public ee be
cause of controversies over questions of
scholarship. The most noted of these
disputes was that with Dr. Herman V.
Ililiiiecht, who taught philosophy and
held a research professorship of Asyr
lology at tjj.e I'nlversity of Pennsyl
vania. The Jiistrow-Hilprecht controversy,
while nn offshoot of nn earlier one In
100." between Dr. Hilprecht and Dr.
John P. Peters, a former member of
the I'nlversity fneulty. exceeded the
older dispute in intensity nnd bitterness
of language.
The main points of the original mi
trovcrsy were concerned with certain
charges made by Dr. P(ter legarding
research work in Babylonia by Dr. IIII-
lireelit. Literary illsiionest.v was al
leged in connection with references to
certain tablets that had been excavated.
The hub nf the controversy appeared
to be Dr. Hilnreclit's opinion thnt some
of these tablets belonied to the so-called
"Temple Mbrnry a( Mppur, Tinu-
ylonin. nnd nlso ns to the nctuality 'of
the temple library and the character
of Its content''.
((iicstion of K(h lis Involved
Dr. Jastrow shared the views of Dr.
Peters and expressed himself so forcibly
that Dr. Hilprecht aid Dr. Jastrow's
lief purpose siniplj was to Keep the
eontrocr.v nlive
r.v alive. A question of ethics
was tnvohed bcenuse Dr. Hiiprccht s
opponents made much of the fact that
he had bought one of the tablets.
Dr Jastrow nlxi hurled his lame of
scholarship at a translation of what was
icgarded a an account of the Deluge
autedatiing the aeinunt in the Itnuk
ef Genesis, bj 1100 jenrs.
The translation was bj Dr. Stephen
I.nngdnii, of Oxford I'nlversitj . and wa
made from the Nippur tablets, often
called the Siimerinn tab'ets.
According In this translation, it was
the counterpart of the Noah of the Blb'e
who ate th- forbidden fruit in the Gui
llen of Kilen. and the consequent fall
of man occurred after the Deluge and

WEGLEIN V PLANS
Accuses Council of 'Honey-
Fuggling' and 'Dilly-Dallying'
on Frankford Measure'
OUTLINES HIS STAND!
Mayor Moore Is unnlterably opposed
to the amendments to tne Prnnkford
elevnted lense proposed to Council jes
terdny by Blcbnrd Weglein, president.
Today he bitterly criticized the fail
ure of Council to net on the lease, which
wns sent for consideration last March.
The Frankford "I,." Mayor Moore
said, would be in operation next win
ter were it not for the "Dilly-dnlljtng
and honeyfuggled" tactics of the coun
cllmeii. After ,i conference with City Solici
tor Smyth and Director Twining, the
Mnyor let it be known he would light
the Weglein program nnd then reverted
to his net ion in sending the. lease lo
Council for action.
Sees Delay in Weglein Plan
"That was nearly three mouths ago."
said tiie Major, "nnd nt the time the
pioposnl lease was forwarded the
Major s(a;ed that it was subject to
auieudment nnd not necessiirih final,
but did not state that if the people were
to receive the benefit of the Prankford
I. extension by the coming winter, im
mediate consideration of the lease would
be in order.
"Some f Mr. Wcglcin's proposals
which have been before the public in
one form or other sime the Taylor plans
were imposed upon the cltv look is if
much delay might ensue before the city
and the cnuipniij are hroiisht together
upon a workable plan.
"Mr. Wcglcin's insistcii'e upon the
extension of the Prankfoid I. from
Bridge street lo which it has been vlr
tuallj completed to Ilolini'sbiirg sounds
ensj. but It Involves the construction of
the I, nt least three miles through farm
laud, much of which Is upon the market
nnd some of which is in the hands of
speculators, and the cost of construc
tion would prohnbh run up to
M.tlOO.OOO.
"The I'orujinin Is leitnmh not in
fiunncial tondltloti to uiiileriake this
extension and the citi i- not In funds to
do so at present. Moreou'r. It should

sides agreed that the operation of the
Prankford I., even to Biide street,
must be undertaken bj the citj or by tho
company nt n loss approximating ?!I00,
000 for the first jear.
The proposed extension from Bustle
ton to Bj-bcrrj is nlt-n through farm
land and some of those owning it hne
refused to dedicate, so that the exten
sion must be carried on at tin expense
of the nthe citj to icnihc Somerton
where the population is nlmut Mill.
Assail, Council for Del.ij
'The big part about the agreement
sent to Council in Mnnh was to stop
the Infernal waste and hiss of time
and inoiiej in capital and interest ou
the Prankford D and to gi t il in opera
tion for the benefit of the people. That
operation would huve been possible b
next winter if Council had not dillj
tlallieil and houej -fugglul.
"Nor can the Mnjor penult the stric
tures of Mr. Weglein with icspect to
legislation nt Harrisburg to go unchal
lenged. Bills were introduced bj the
Adnillnistratlon and others seeking con
1 1 ol over transit in Philadelphia and
then- was a re-routing bill which was
liiiiendeil to upplj to freights but not
to passengers. Those who remember
the differences Mr. Wcglcin's legislative
committee hud with Mr. Deicllii. chair
man of the Law Committee of Council,
will bear these matters in mind.
"It certuinlj comes wi.h poor grace

, In the meantime a sharp revolt lias

primarily against taking lumber off the

This revolt is organized. It includes
