KEPT STOLEN
UT O SIX
MONTHS
Gay Young Philadelphia Is
Captured at Last After
Exciting Chase.

PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 12.-With a
merry chase lasting ID hours, in a
stolen automobile, pursued by motor
cycle policemen. Harry Ford, p years
old, Of 1901 Vine street, yesterday
ventures and dashing company. lasting
five months, during which he had been
sought high and low by detectives. He
was arrested in a garage at 1920 South
Bancroft street for stealing a $4,000
touring car from Francis P. MOTIF, of
5513 frankfort avenue, last March.
Ford's boldness and his success In
eluding capture for so long astounded
the police. He had lived a carefree
existence, renting out the stolen ma
chine, acting as chauffeur, n then
spending his earnings in taking friends,
both men and women, on long auto
trips. He passed as a man of wealth
and leisure, dressed well and enter
tanned lavishly. Although aware that
a warrant had been issued for his
arrest, he remained in the city. and
took no precautions against discovery
beyond changing the license tag of the
motor car and moving to new lodg-
ings.
Ford was employed in an automobile
repair shop in Frankfort. Last Janu-
airy MOTIF, who is manager Of the Mon
umental Marble Works at 5511 Prank
ford avenue, took his automobile to the
shop to have it put in good order. He
told them there was no hurry, and that
he would call for it in March. The a
was renovated and vas just ready for
delivery to it's owner when one night 1t
disappeared and at the same time Ford
was missed. MOTIF swore out a war
rant for his arrest before Magistrate
O'Donnell, but after five months search
he had not been ~apprehended.
Saturday night Mr.. and Mrs. MOTIF
were walking up Chestnut street. near
the Mint Arcade, to a cafe after coming
from a theatre. They saw Ford with
two male companions dash by in the
missing car, going west. With a wild
leap MOTIF caught hold of the rear end
| of the machine and tried to climb in
side. at the same time shouting for the
occupants to stop.
Ford was at the lever, and his re-
sponse was to throw it forward to a
higher speed and shout to his compan-
ions to Joss the man off.
"Get off peaceably or we will throw
you off," the men cried to MOTIF, at the
same time attempting to loosen his
hands. He only chung the tighter, n
they then clasped him roughly. He a
little to hold to and was pushed into
the street, being severely bruised by
the fall. This happened at sixteenth
and Chestnut streets. The car sped
away toward the west. Not a police
man was in sight, but Moitz went to
the City Hall and reported the matter,
It was not until afternon yesterday
that Ford was found and arrested by
Motorcycle Policeman Coan and Special
Policeman Ritter, of the Fifteenth
street and Snyder avenue station. He
was taken to the Frankfort station ano
will be arraigned today.
1t is understood that there are other
charges against Ford, and also mai
several more arrests are to follow.

prevented from doing so. owing to the fact
that the Standard, by reason of its adj
vantage in rail rates. could, and would,
at any time when Necessary, again depress
prices to a point where such competitors
would again be forced to conduct their
business at a loss. 1t Is thus apparent
that discrimination in railroad rates is in
timately identified with discrimination In
prices.
The Galena Signal Oil Company has CON
tinucd under successive agreements, which
1t has had ample Opportunity to terminate,
to sell these lubricnting oils TO the PENN
sylVania during the past ten years at
prices which were about one-half the in
voice prices, and some few other roads
have had equally favorable contracts.
Moreover. the calculations made by the
Pennsylvania as to the cost at which II
could compound its own lubricants from
oils bought in the pen market, as we'll
companies, show that the prices paid by
the Pennsylvania can be used as a stand
ard Of reasonable price by which to judge
the excessive prices paid 10y nearly all
other railroads In the country.
Absolutely no satisfactory explanation
has been given for the excessive prices
paid by nearly all railroads, They must
be attributed solely to the fact that the
STANDARD. which controls the Galena, IS
powerful enough. either by reason of its
enormous shipments of petroleum products
or by its influence In financial circles. 10
induce most of the railroads OF the coun-
try to pa yexcessive prices for their lubri-
cants. Two typical instances of this char
acter may be cited.
in all the evidence gathered on this sub
ject there is nothing to show any reason
why the railroads of the country should
pay the Standard this Excess of S2.Oo0.G30
per year except the suggested connection
between these contracts and the. distribu-
tion of freight traffic by the Standard OIL
Company or the possible weight of imam
cial influence.
The obnoxious character of the Standards
price policy and its methods Is thus made
clear from the present report. The Stand
ard has repeatedly asserted that combine

NEW YORK, Aug. 12.-Cardinal Glib
bons, who is spending a vacation at the
little Long Island town of Southampton,
went into the pulpit of the local church
and delivered the sermon Sunday.
The cardinal extolled the virtues of
charity, and urged upon his listeners the
necessity for sympathy toward one an
other, regardless of color, creed or ma
tionality.
you may have the wealth of h Van

what will it avail without sympathy? You
might own Manhattan Island, the richest
island in the world, but If there was no
other man there whose hand you might
grasp Of what value would 1t be? While
YOU cannot raise the dead as Christ did,
the greatest thing you can do for God is
to save your brother from a worldly life"
