Probably one of the best demon
strations Of the necessity of air pres

who have taken taxicab contracts.
These contracts are taken on a mile
age basis. the tire company making
the contract agreeing TO furnish mile
age at certain amount per mile. the
tires remaining the property of the
tire company. In this case il will be
readily seen that the tire company
must get the greatest amount of mile

their tires inflated to a pressure named
by the rubber company. the penalty
being that the taxieab company shall
pay the difference between the mileage
received and the price of the tire in
case the tire is ruined by insufficient
air pressure.
1t is as reasonable to expect a ma
chine to run without sufficient oil as
to expect a tire TO run without suff-
cient air pressure.
TOO MUCH GUARANTEE
The owner does not show the con-
sideration for the tires he ought to
on account of there being a guarantee
to fall back on. Invariably the left
rear tire will show more wear than
any. other tire on the car. due to a
leakage of oil under the right brake
drum. thereby causing the left brake

suit being that the left tire stands all

according to their own stories n those
of witnesses of the ARRAY, Patroimer
Deering, Boweron and Meidenbach

when a hearing will be held.
On the slate at the First Precinct sta
ton the arrest of Saratella is stated TO
have been mad by officers Crawford,
O'Gara and Deering, which would seem
to indicate that the last named did have
some hand in the fight. Neither Craw-
ford nor O'Gara wanted to tall today,
further than to say that none of the
three officers aforementioned seemed
to care much about assisting them.
Deering was on the spot when Kline
and his band came up Halsey street to-
ward Market. O'Gara and Crawford
arrived at this time and were greeted
with insulting eplthets by the gang.
They passed these by and ordered the
men to move on. Upon their refusing
to do so, the officers grabbed Kline n
he other gangsters made a concerted
rush and succeeded in rescuing their
leader from the clutches of the police.
A large crowd gathered, and, attracted
by this, 1t is alleged that Boweron and
Meidenbach rushed to the scene, but
seemed to devote their energies to keep
ing the crowd back. In the meantime,
O'Gara and Crawford were having a
hard fight. and, falling to recapture
Kline, succeeded in getting Saratella.
This, it is said, is not the first time
that an affair of the kind has occurred,
in other precincts. .
Captain Ryan, commanding the First
Precinct, stated that he would make
n complete investigation of the matter
and that he would leave no stone UNI

Lyman e. Kane. president of the
Police Board, has ordered an imme-
date investigation by the chief of
police, and, should the charges be
proven by such investigation, h three
officers will have to ACE the board on
serious charges.
1t Is claimed that the refusal or the
alleged evident unwillingness of Deer
ing M%eidenbach and Boweron enabled
Kline to escape.
Saratella Is well known to the police,
as is Kline. Saratella has served time
before, and efforts have been made by
the police for some time to break up
the gang.

SCORES FEDERAL OFFICERS
IN FALSE WEIGHTS" SUIT.
Judge Holt Denounces Retention
of Men Who Confessed.

NEW YORK. Oct. 27.-Antonio Mu-
sica, who with his son, Philip, has beer
on trial in the United States Circuit
Court here, was today found not guilty
on the charge against the pair of al
legged frauds In obtaining underweights
in cheese importations. Philip Musica,
who yesterday pleaded guilty to one of
the counts in the indictment, was re-
manded to the Tombs for sentence.
Yong Musica, on the witness stand,
testified that his father was in Door
health and had not had an active hand
In the business for several years.
In remarks following the verdict
Judge Holt criticized the announced de-
cision Of the government to retain in
the customs service the weighers who
during the trial confessed to frauds by
which they and the Musicas profited.
Judge Holt said:
Before finally disposing of this case
l have something to say in regard to
h three government witnesses, the
three weighers, who turned states evil
dence, in return for which the govern
ment not only promised them immunity,
but also retention of their position. I
never before In all my experience heard
of the practise of continuing in the gov
eminent service men who have con-
fessed to frauds in that service.
Il wish to express my strong disap-
probation of continuing such men in the
government service. i say II Is a dis
credit to the government to do so. I
say further that it is wrong to compel
honest men In the public service to act
in the company of men who have con-
fessed to such frauds"

hope of being able to pick up some OF
the crew of the wrecked Donaldson
line teamer Hestia, q number of tugs,
vessels, and other craft put out from
this port today for Seal Cove, Grand
Manan Island, where the Hestia ran
upon a ledge, and where more than a
score of persons are believed to have
persisted. The efforts of the volunteer
rescuers were conferred or the location
of II little lifeboat, which, over
crowded with men, was the last to
leave the Hestia. When last observed
the occupants of the frail craft were
struggling in the heavy seas. The wind
at the time OF the accident was blow
ing a gale off shore. and today, al
though it had diminished considerably,
it still blew from the land and 1t was
the general opinion that the lifeboat
had been carried out to sea.
One Of the vessels to leave port for
the scene of the wreck this morning
was the steamer Aurora, which makes
regular trips between here, Grand
Manan and East Port, Me. The steamer
expected to pick up the survivors of
the wreck who are now at Grand
Manan and bring them to Eastport, ar
irving there tomorrow.

ability of some sort of reciprocal COM
mercial relations between them in the

ton of bringing both nations on the Pa

governments and peoples of the two ma

accomplishment OF this end, If they de-

If their professed friendliness to each

With precisely the same idea and de-
