ALOR|CH'S HEAD
IN CRAVE DANCER
Strong Probability He'll Lose D. P,
w. Job Next Tuesday, at Mayors
Request.

Frank Aldrich, superintendent of
the street cleaning department. OF
the department of public works, will
probably be removed next Tuesday
Aldrich is moving heaven and earth
TO stave of the blow. lie is pulling
every wire he can lay hands on. He
even appealed TO Mayor Breitmeyer
the fountain head OF the Aldrich OPP
position, Saturday morning, but re-
ceiyed no encouragement there. The
mayor told him frankly that he had
asked Commissioner Haarer 10 ap-
point another man.
Aldrich's fate, therefore. would
seem TO rest in the commissioner
hands Haarer dislikes TO discharge
any man unless there are good rea-
sons. The mayor has asked for Aid
rich's removal not solely because OF
Aldrich's activity in behalf OF Proc
tor X. owens, but on the ground that
he has not properly performed his
work There are other things, how
ever that must be taken into consid-
Grafton in Aldrich's case.
According to the gossip around
city hall, when Aldrich was appointed
superintendent OF the street clean
ing department under the Codd ad'
ministration. it was with the under
standing that he was TO remain as
long as Haarer was In Office. This
places Jake" in "A rather embarras-
sing position, and he IL bound TO
make some enemies no matter which
way he decides Ii he refuses to dis
miss Aldrich. he Will incur Mayor
Breitmeyer's displeasure; il, on the
other hand. Aldrich is discharged.
how will Haarer square himself with
the friends of the superintendent
who secured the latter's appoint
ment?
However, from sources close TO the
administration ii is learned that the
commissioner practically has decided
on successor 10 Aldrich. a politician
well-known around the city hall, who
is regarded as live wire. Haarer
was In conference with this man for
more than an hour Friday after
neon, and 1t is understood that the
matter was settled al that time. II
may be that Aldrich already has re-
ceived noice. At all events, he was
very busy Saturday morning.
All | can say is that | have asked
Mr.. Haarer 10 make change in the
street cleaning department said the
mayor to The Times II have given
him the name OF man who | know.

Aldrich, but he has my request and il

New York, April 21.-The sudden

quiry into the alleged cotton pool be-
fore the special grand jury sent a
thrill of hope in certain quarters of
the financial district that perhaps the
government had decided to call off

Clark McKercher, assistant attor-

ARGUES PINK FRANKLIN CASE
Attorney General Lyon Before United
States SuDreme COurf

Washington, April 21.-Unusual
interest was shown today by the Su-
preme Court of the United States in
the argument of the Pink Franklin
murder case, Of South Carolina, when
Attorney General Lyon Of that State,
had questions to ask concerning the
conviction of the negro on a charge
Of having murdered Special Constable
Valentine, who had entered Frank
Inns cabin to arrest him. on a charge
of having violated the agricultural
contract law" That law has been
denounced by former Attorney Cen
eral Bonaparte as an attempt to re-
duce negroes to captivity.
Attorney General Lyon, in his open
ing argument, said he would consider
it just as much a disgrace for South
Carolina to take the life Of an hum
bic negro without warrant as if it
were to execute unjustly the highest
citizen in the land.
He admitted that the agricultural
contract law" under which Valentine
sought TO arrest Franklin was uncon-
stitutional. "As long, however, as
the magistrate who issued the war
rant had the power to do so and the
warrant was regular on it's face, the
constable was clothed with the pro-
lection Of the law of the land in MAX
ing the arrest.
Repeatedly the various Justices
piled the official with questions as to
whether there was any distinction To
he made between resisting arrest on
a warrant issued under a constitu-
tional and an unconstitutional law.
Mr.. Lyon invariably replied that
there was none.
AS to the regularity of the warrant
he cOntended that no question on
| that point ever was raised until Mr.
! BOnaparte imagined it to he in the
| record.
Mr.. Lyon argued that the State OF
| South Carolina was not attempting to
reduce the negroes to a state of peon-
age nor to deny them their consti-
tutional rights.
