HALP|N WANTS
FULL INVESTIGATION

New York, Jan. LA rumor was cur
rent in athletic circles yesterday that in
view OF the unpleasant controversy re-
garding Matthew Il. Halpin's reappoint-
ment as manager of the American Olym-
pic team he would resign his position
and bring the AFFAIR 10 an end. This re-
port was emphatically denied by HIalpin.
who declines TO be driven out of his job.
That Halpin is determined on his stand
for vindication is evidenced by his action
Monday In instituting one suit for dam
ages growing out OF the bitterness OF the
contention. The charges brought by the
manager against certain members of the
Olympic team that went TO Athens I'm 1906
created sensation Monday, and. IL true.
they place several of the athletes I'm a
very unfavorable light. The conservative
element in athletes, however. lis inclined
To the belief that both sides have some
what overdrawn their troubles and that
full and complete investigation would
disclose the fact tnat In more than one
instance mountain had been made out
OF molehill.
There is a general desire for complete
sitting of facts. so that the Olympic team
10 be sent to England next year will not
repeat the experiences OF the Athens ag-
gregation. The present charges and
counter-charges cannot but hurt the pres
tige OF tho American Olympic team, both
from an athletic and social standpoint
Manager Halpin is anxious TO have the
matter brought to the attention of the
American Olympic committee, and he
courts the fullest investigation. He is
also desirous OF having the proceedings
fully published. as he feels that a star
chamber investigation would leave the
matter In very unsatisfactory condi-
ton.

cdentally torn up the Will and that Mr..

will should be admitted TO probate. Mr..
Canning. who represented the other heirs,
argued against this.
at is a fair presumption" said Mr.
Canning. that Mr.. Cronin was the per-
son who destroyed the will and not the
wife, who is the principal beneficiary.
She Is the only witness, and her testi-
mony does not seem consistent"
The case was continued for two weeks

Philadelphia. March 2-Word was re-
celved here to-day OF the death OF Thomas
Wanamaker, son Of John wanamaker.
He died last night in Paris at the Lv-
erpool Hotel He had been travelling
abroad for some time.
Thomas Brown Wanamaker. although a
busy man for years. had been little IT.
the public eye. He was forty-seven years
old at the time of his death. Since his
purchase Of the North American, nine
years ago. he had devoted his energies
mainly to upbuildins that newspaper
property.
Mr.. Wanamaker was one Of those who
were instrumental IN securing Maj. Gil
iette as head of the filtration bureau.
three years ago. and with former Mayor
Weaver and former Judge Gordon, signed
the bond guaranteeing the army officer a
salary of $1,000 a year for five years
from February. 1906.
Up TO a few months ago Mr. Wana-
maker remained the head Of the North
American. Shortly after purchasing the
newspaper Mr. Wanamaker moved the
plant from its old location at Seventh
and Chestnut streets TO a new twenty
story building at Broad and Sansome
streets.
On February l announcement was made
that Thomas B. Wanamaker had retired

.PITTSBURG is FLAT BROKE
City Employees Must Borrow from
Friends to Live.
Trouble Brought About by QuarreIs
I'm City Council and with
the Mayor.

Pittshurg, March 2.-Employes of the
city of Pittsburg will for the next thirty
days live on what they can borrow.
The city IS broke and cannot pay the
employees for February work This, at
least. is what has been told the anxious
ones to-day. and everything Is blamed on
the city council, which has been quarrel
ing with the mayor and among them
selves until there is little or 10 money in
the city treasury with which 10 pay the
employees.
There is about $4,000. but $4,000 more is
needed, and at once. if those who work
for the city would be paid. Rep tape must
be unwOund. and il is certain that II
will not require four weeks before the
money needed is in the treasury
An Interesting feature OF the affair is
that Mayor Guthrie finds his authority
disputed, too. Some time ago he issued
orders 10 all officeholders running for
any other Office to get off the pay roll
during the campaign. and told them that
they could not electioneer on the city's
time. He specially insisted that Richard
kopp. deputy city treasurer. who is
candidate for county commissioner. and
Deputy Director Of Public Works John
or the pay roll.
To-day this pair issued a note in de-
iiance Of the order. saying they would not
resign or take vacation. and dared the
mayor 10 try 70 discharge them.
