FREE LABOR BUREAU IS
NOW ON SLIDING SCALE
Finance Committee of Council Asked
to Make Thorough investigation
Of Present Conditions

The recommendation of the finance
committee that the free labor bureau
be abolished was re-referred to the
committee yesterday, with Instructions
to make a complete investigation.
A. l.. Wilson, manager of the free
labor bureau, is fighting hard to Keep
his place, which he will lose if the bu-
reau is abolished, and furnished the
members of the council with a writ
ten statement purporting to show that
he had secured positions for 2IOO men
during the last year. Councllmen
Plant and Gregory seemed impressed
with the statement and wanted the
matter further investigated before they
voted.
Councilman Washburn, chairman of
the finance committee that recommend
ed the abolishment of the bureau, de-
clared he had been satisfied that it was
of no use to the city and was a source
of expense that could be cut off with
out detriment. Councilman Andrews
declared he understood that the ma
jority Of the men for whom Wilson
claims to have secured jobs have sim
ply been told by Wilson they could Sc
cure employment on the aqueduct,
which any one could have told them.
1t has been alleged that Wilson hires
another man to look after the bureau
for him most of the time and deals in
horses on the side.
The bureau costs the city about $500
a year, and the finance committee of
the former council made a thorough
investigation of the place. Following
this investigation two members of the
committee. Wallace and Dromgold,
recommended that it be abolished, but
could get no support from the council.

STANDARD MEASURE URGED s.
FOR BOXED VEGETABLES

Within the next two weeks the leg
islation committee of the council will
consider the recommendation of the
city sealer of weights and measures
that all vegetables sold in sacks and
boxes be made to conform to a stand
ard measure.
The produce exchange and others in
terested in the produce business are op-
posed to the suggested standard, and
will be invited to appear before the
committee and present their side of
the case. The city sealer declares that

vegetable peddlers misrepresent their
weights and practically cheat the con-
sumers to whom they sell.

indorsed the recommendation of the
city sealer by formal resolutions, and a
copy of these resolutions was sent to
the council yesterday.

PLAYED POKER WELL,

PHILADELPHIA. October 15.-The
question whether q mans ability to play

tally able to execute q will was put up
to Register of Wills David Martin yes
terday. The proceedings were brought
to prevent the probate of the testament
of Thomas Morgan. who died at the age
of eighty years. leaving two Wills.
A caveat was filed against the probate

His mind always seemed pretty clear
to me. had often seen him in the
Office Of the water bureau at night play

He played the game to the limit-for
all 1t was worth-and seemed to be q
very successful poker player. Indeed
there was nothing about the way he
handled the cards to indicate that his
mind was in any way weak"

PORTRAITS FOR THE
POSTAL BANK BONDS
Licensees of Washington,
Lincoln and Cleveland viii
Ornament First Issues.

Presidents Washington, Lincoln and
Cleveland have been chosen as the SUBJ
jects for the portraits for the first postal
$500 bonds. respectively. This decision
has been reached by the acting Secretary
of the Treasury, A. Piatt Andrew.
The bonds will be ready for the public
as soon as the postal savings scheme is
put into operation. Issues OF the denom-
nations Of $40, $50 and $50 are not ex-
pecfed at present. for the reason that
the amounts can be covered in the so
bond or its multipies already determined
upon.
Treasury officials expect that the
Washington, Lincoln and Cleveland
bonds will be the most popular of those
authorized to be issued under the legisla-
ton of the recent session of Congress. It
is anticipated that there will be large
demand for them. as they will pay 2t5
per cent interest, while the deposits
which are to be exchangeable for the
bonds will pay only per cent fiat.
Under the postal savings law, depositors
may surrender their deposits or any part
of them in sums of SO. $40, $tO $50 to
500, and multiples OF 800 and $500 and
receive in lieu for them an equal amount
of q new issue of United States coupon
registered bonds in like denominations,
the interest payable semi-annually, re-
deemable in one year. and payable in
twenty years, in gold coin. They are to
but are to be issued only when there are
bonds OF the United States
subject to call. or when the government
wants to replenish the Treasury.

KING MANUEL TO REST,
FRIENDS WILL BE BUSY
Duke of Bragapza Expected to CO.
Operate in Campaign in
Portugal.

GIBRALTAR. October liking
Manuel Of Portugal, the Queen Mother
Amelie, the Duke Of Oporto. the Count
Of Sabugosa, grand master Of the Por-
tuguese court, and the Count of
Figueiro, master OF ceremonies of the
court, held a conference here yester-
day concerning the future course of
action to be taken by the king and the
other members of the royal household.
1t was decided that King Manuel
should lead a quiet life until his health
is fully restored, and that meanwhile
his friends in Portugal should under
take vigorous political campaign, in
which the supporters OF Duke Michael
Of Braganza, the pretender. will CO.
operate. to return as many monarchist
candidates as is possible at the cleo
tions.
1t is probable that after his arrival
in England and the publication of his
manifesto King Manuel will take a sea
voyage or travel abroad. so as to avoid
embarrassing England while he is carry
ing on a political propaganda. 1t has
been arranged that the Duke Of Oporto
shall accompany the king to England
instead Of going to Italy with the
Dowager Queen Maria Pia.

WR1GHTs MAY SEEK PRIZE.
Believed They Would Be Willing to
Try for Record Flight.

The Wright brothers are willing to go
after a ten-thousand- dollar prize for an
aeroplane fight from Washington to Bal
timore and return, or for a record flight
of over 1O4 miles made about Washington,
it is believed. A dispatch was received
here today from Thomas II. Jackson, rep
resentskive of the Wrights, now in ST.
Louis, asking whether prize OF $4,000
had been offered for such a flight.
Since Claude Grahame-White has found
it will be impossible for him to attempt
such a flight, owing to accidents to his
aeroplanes at Benning yesterday, it is
possible that the Wrights will take up the
gantlet and make the attempt for rec
ord. or send one of their best operators
Brookins or JOhnstone-to make the effort
in a Wright machine. If the offer of the
prize for such a flight is renewed the
Wrights will probably go after it.
