Clever strategy was resorted te by the
traffickers, many of whom had letters
from mythical physicians, recommending
that they receive hospital treatment.
In many Instances the applicants
cached their big earnings from the
traffic and appeared forlorn and des
titute at tlie hospital where they made a
pathetiu pica te be cured from the habit
which gripped them.
It was the cese of "Mickey" Tay Tay
eor that brought the subtle plan te light.
Accidental Trip Gives Cine
Captain Van Hern went te the Phil
adelphia He'pltal te get information
from addicts recently committed thcre.
Walking through the wards he Raw n
familiar face. The man was Tayler,
for whom the police have been looking
for everal days.
After lirst denying his identity. Tay
ler said, according te Vnn Hern, that'
he gained iidmlttnnce te the hospital
under an assumed niinm for drug treat
ment, ltn said that he went tiiTe te
hide. I lireugh Tayler it was learned
that tcvcral mero sellers also ;ire In the
Institution.
On aceh ,ng the report of Van Hern,

City Officials Witness Tests of
Sprinkler System at In

RESULT PLEASES MAYOR
Independence Hall was cloaked In a
curtnln of water for fifteen minutes this
morning during the, preliminary tct
of a lecently Installed sprinkler sys
tem for protection against fire.
Mayer Moere, who wns present, ex
pressed keen satisfaction with the test.
A oOO-galleu centrifugal pump, with
a pressure of 100 pounds, sends the
water through pinef in Independence
Hull. Congress Hull at Hlxth and Chest
nut streets, and old City Hall at Fifth
uud Chestnut fctreels".
The jump in the basement of the cast
wing of Independence Hall automatic
ally starts with the opening of a valve
located In any part of the three build
lugs, fending a Hlream of water shoot sheet
ing through the outlets, placed incon
spicuously throughout the interior.
The water curtnin en the outside Is
operated manually. Tt is intended te
protect the buildings against sparks that
mny fly tfrem tires in the neighborhood.
Water Seeped Through Reef
The sprinklers en the tower and reef
of Congress Hall were first tested. They
worked batlsfncterily, but the pressure
was turned off when water was found
te be seeping through several places en
the reef.
At 1(:4." the master valve, opening
the sprinklers outside the tower nnd
along the coping of Independence Hull,
was turned en nnd in n moment the
entire center section of the building
wns ceered bv a thin sheet of water
that fell steadily until 11 o'clock. The
experiment with the system lu old City
Hull was just as successful.
