Immoral Purposes
flagrant violations of the liquor
laws arc charged against some hotels,
heretofore considered among the most
conservatively conducted hostelries in
this section of Pennsylvania, by the
hundreds of remonstants against the
granting by the Uauphln county court
of the relicensing privileges for 1916.
The campaign is the result of the;
joint efforts of the No-License league. 1
the Dauphin County Law and Order
League, and a number of the congre-!
eations of Harrisburg churches.
The judges of the Dauphin county
courts will sit on Friday to hear ap
plications for relicenses for the ensu-i
ing year or to grant new privileges.
Following are the hostelries against j
which remonstrances have been tiled: '
St. Charles, Washington and j
Second streets, B. Leslie Potter.
Harris House. George Rovar, 1
Third and Strawberry streets.
Savoy. 143-45 South Third,
Jajnes J. McClellan.
Columbus, Third and Walnut,
Maurice E. Kuss.
Sullivan's, 32T Verbeke, Thom
as J. Sullivan.
David Katzman, 314 Verbeke.
National. Fourth and State,
Fred W. Ebel. (Also against new
site. 1802 North Fourth.)
Leroy, Benjamin A. Striplln,
Bighth ward, and 943 North
Seventh.
John A. Broughter. 317 Walnut
street.
David C. Mingle, 110S Market
street.
Edwin S. Miller, 435 Market
street.
Victor, Joseph Giusti, 24 Grace I

Lenox. Samuel Fishman. 426-
2S Market street (new).
Coxestown, Frederick Bossing- I
cr.
Grantville. I. D. Lingle.
Shell's Tavern, Shellsvllle. Ches
ter A. Bover.
In addition to these hostelries a re- i
monstrance has been filed against the j
Fink Brewing Company.
Dislike Cabaret ,
The objections on most of tiie city
hotels are based on the grounds that
lhiiior is sold to minors, to intoxicated
persons or to persons of intoxicated
habits; that women are permitted to
congregate for the purpose of solicit-,
ing men: that dancers are employed
to draw the trade.
The objection against the Fink com- (
pany. however, was the most startling
in view of the fact that the United i
States government recently had trou- '
ble collecting the internal revenue du- !
ties from this establishment.
Next to the Columbus hotel, the re- I
monstrance against the Harris House
probably attracted the more general I
attention. That women drink there ,
and that they are suspected of fre- ,
ciuenting that place in order to attract
men. was the gist of the charges
Jtre advanced against the Columbus. :
It Is at the Savoy that a cabaret danc- !
er is employed, according to the re
inonstarnts.
To file Seven More
Seven more remonstrances were'
filed late this afternoon by Attorney j
Harry B. Saussaman for the No-Li
cense League. Four of these are pro- j
tests against the re-licensing of the
St. Lawrence hotel, Berrysburg, Wil- j
liam H. Bowman, who will try again
for the privilege after having been re- ?
fused last year: A. P. Schoffstall, Ly
kens, for maintaining a private drink
ing room; against the Fort Hunter
hotel, conducted by J. Garfield Fack-1
ler. trustee. The other objections
were supplemental remonstrances filed
against the Columbus, the Harris
House, the Savoy and the Leroy
hotels.
"THOU FAT PIG!"
MAY LEAD TO CHAIR?
[Continued From First Page.]
Wickersham hopes to convince the
jury that Kotur should pay the law's
penalty for the murder of Backic on
the electric chair.
Following Novokovic Constable
James W. Haines took the stand. It
was through Haines that Kotur was
brought to trial and the Steelton offi
cer's sleuth-like investigations of the
circumstances surrounding the death
of Backic, it is believed, should help
tighten the electrodes about the fore
head of Kotur.
What the defense will be would not
he forecasted to-day by ex-Recorder
O. G. Wickersham and Duncan Wylie,
counsel for Kotur, but. it was the gen
eral opinion among members of the
bar that Kotur would try to save him
self on the ground that the death of
Backic occurred during a drunken
brawl. By this means, it is believed,
the defense hopes to at least reduce
the degree of the murder. Mr. Wick
ersham expressed confidence to-day,
however, that Kotur would be ac
quitted.
By this evening or to-morrow morn
ing. it is confidently expected. Kotur's
fate will be in the jury's hands.
The Song of Backic
Facing the stolid Kotur, Novokovic
on the witness stand vividly described 1
the "beer party'' at 725 South Third
street. Steelton, on the night of De
cember 22.
Kotur, Novokovic and some other
companions were sitting at a table
with their beer before them when they ,
heard someone outside —singing.
Kotur. feared even by his fighting j
chums in far-away Bosnia because he
was believed to have killed a man in j
t hat turbulent part of the Balkans, |
snarled and strode to the door.
Outside Joseph Backic, singer, caroled '
cheerfully on.
"Quit it, thou fat 'ushe'!" Kotur
yelled, according to the witness.
And "ushe" means "pig"—the im
possible, unprintable word of the I
Bosnians.
The Ugliest Word
Words followed words and finally
Backic strode into the house. Kotur
felled him with a bow. Novokovic
started fearfully to his room on the
second floor. As he turned he saw
Hackle lying on the floor: over him 1
stood Kotur. flourishing a knife, j
Backic was not yet dead, Novokovic I
declared, because he saw the prone'
man move and moan. And then Kotur
crashed his heavy boot heel into !
Jiackio's face.
"What do you do. Kotur?" called
down the frightened witness from I
above. "Do you not know that God |
will not forgive you for what you do?" '
"Forgive, ehl" screamed Kotur. I
"Tou go back to bed and shut up—or!
J come up and serve you thus, too!"
That, in etXect was the gist of Novo-1

ASKING CHEAPER
ROAD CONTRACTS
Reconstruction Is Too Expen
sive Say People From Berks
County Towns
An appeal was made to State High
way Commissioner Cunningham late
yesterday by a delegation from the
Berks County Conservation Association
to devise J: cheaper method of build
ing State-aid highways in Berks county
where stone foundations exist. The
delegation consisted of 11. F. Heinlv,
former district attorney; Solon L.
Parkes. secretary of the association,
and Walter S. Frees, president of the
Berks County Firemen's Association.
Mr. Heinlv explained to Commissioner
Cunningham that a number of town
ships in Berks county felt that they
could not afford to join with the State
on State-aid application for the con
struction of county roads and said that
the conservation association had named
this committee to interview the State
Highway Commissioner as to the feasi
bility of resurfacing roads with stone
foundations in a less expensive man
ner than that of reconstruction. Mr.
Heinly said that his committee wanted
to know whether or not the State
Highway Department could not use
the State-aid money for resurfacing
work of a character similar to that
done by the State Highway Depart
ment on State highways during the
past season.
Commissioner Cunningham said he
would consult with the Attorney Gen
eral as to whether this interpretation
could be placed on the law governing
State-aid construction.
Dr. George Hetrich, burgess of
Birdsboro. and William K. Young,
vice-president of the school board of
the same borough, also called on State
Highway Commissioner Cunningham
to-day with reference to the proposed
State-aid improvement in Birdsboro.
The borough council has approved a
proposed bond issue to finance this
improvement and the object of the
Birdsboro visitors was to ascertain
what amount would be necessary so
that a special election might br held
to ratify the issue of bonds.

President Judge Kunkel and another
jury tried Thomas, alias "Country'."

was also charged with the murder of
the woman, but it is understood that
the State will ask that the murder case

sufficient evidence to convict.

Another point of enlightenment for

out in Mr. Cunningham's statement

paid the State in automobile license
fees, had received only the amount for
the first half of the year, and he an
