HIS EYES ON THE ALLEYS NOW
COMMISSIONERS WEST SUGGESTS
RIGID OVERLAPPING.
Thinks Special Board Should Be
Created to Consider Their Status
and Improvement.

Following up the chy-cieaning crusade
which he inaugurated last spring, Com
missioner West has suggested to his col
leagues that special board be created
to consider the status and Improvement OF
the 300 private alleys In the District.
When the cleaning up Of the city was
undertaken by Commissioner West last
spring. under the direction of James NJ.
Wood. superintendent of the street clean
ing department, it was found that private
alleys were among the worst OF the filth
accommodating places In the city.
Being private, they are not swept by
the street cleaning forces; and therefore
the dirt and filth accumuiates tn them in
heaps.
To consider the problem OF the private
alley. in its relation to the city's clean
Illness, Commissioner West suggested that
a board be appointed to consist Of James
NJ. Wood. superintendent OF street clean
ing; E. NJ. Talcott. engineer in charge OF
street extension. and II. y. Moss of tho
engineer department
This list of private alleys, compiled a.
my request by the superintendent of the
street cleaning department. numbers APP
proximately 9O0,'' Commissioner West
says in his motion accompanying the list
of private alleys. Some OF these alleys arc
in very bad condition and the situation re-
garding them is one that demands prompt
REMEDY.
Alleys Ought to Be Widened.
II move that the list be referred to a
board consisting Of James NJ. Wood,
superintendent of the street cleaning de-
partment, and e. NJ. Talcott and H. n.
Moss Of the engineer department, to re-
port to the Commission ers such Of these
alleys as ought to be widened and made
public alleys. e'ther through condemna-
ton or dedication, and also 90 report
the cases where the conversion of these
alleys into public alleys. even at their
present width, Is desirable or practicable.
THE data obtained by this board in
connect. Ion with this alley situation
should be as full and accurate as pos
sibie In order that tho individual cases
reported upon may receive the personal
consideration of the Commissioners with
the view of taking definite action.
II move, further, that the health Off
Ger be directed to instruct his inspectors
to give especial attention to these private
alleys, which in many instances
repositories OF NTH and refuse, with the
view OF prosecuting the owners OF the
property where insanitary conditions arc
created or are allowed to continue"

of previous litigation between the

OF her jacket hung empty at her side.

ton Erb, 10 avenge his death at Red
Gables. Frank b. Rhodes. counsel .or
the accused women, demanded their
acquittal by the jury today.
MIR. Rhodes did not merely insinuate
trickery on the part of the prosecu-
ton. but he deliberately charged it..
and devoted the better part OF two
hour speech To denunciaton in
laundering tones of the Philadelphia
officials Tor sending detectives ami
other investigators into Delaware
county TO frame up a case OF murder
when there was no murder in il.
IL was the last argument OF the de-
tense In the famous trial and Mr..
Rhodes put every bit OF eloQuence and
earnestness of which he was capable
into MS appeal for the lives Of the de-
PENDANTS.
District Attorney MacDade, as soon
as he got on his feet 10 make the
closing speech for the commonwealth,
launched into an attack OF his oppon'
ent's charges. He denied that gang
methods" had entered the case ana
declared that assistance had been
asked OF Philadelphia by him in his
investigation.
Judge Johnson will charge the jury
this afternoon and the case will be
In the hands OF the twelve men be-
fore evening.
Mr.. MacDade in his final speech,
made a mastery argument, based on
the circumstantial evidence az his
command. He spoke for severa,
hours. and was listened To with the
closest attention by the jury. During
the district attorneys illustration by
means OF blue prints of the arrange
ments OF rooms In the hallway at Red
Gables. the unusual spectacle was
presented Of jurymen leaving their
seats and crowding about the speak
er. asking questions OF him and debaC-
ing in whispers with one another
Worried expressions were seen on
the faces OF the group at the defend
ants side OF the bar enclosure. The
feeling OF the crowd in the courtroom
was not so strong as before that &C
quittal will be the verdict. The pre-
vailing feeling Is that Mrs. Erb will
be freed, but that Mrs. Beisel may
get a verdict OF manslaughter or sec
ond degree.
