MARTYR
costs $500 FINE
Court Bears Down Hard on Man Who
Takes Blame for Operating
Speak Easy"

Anthony Bayrowski appeared IN the
role OF martyr to the cause OF the
successful sale of spirituous and In,
toxicating liquors In a "speak-easy
parlor, Monday morning. when con
victed In Judge Phelan's court Inc
Judge apparently has no sympathy
for that sort of martyrdom, because
he evinced no hesitancy In plastering
a fine Of 5000 upon the martyr, who
has the opt1ou of spending the en-
suing 80 days IN the Detroit House
Of Correction.
This IL how Anthony's martyrdom
came about: August Zieike operates
what Il ostensib1y q candy store at
No. SIS st. Aubin-ave. For many Sun
days back, saloonkeepers and house
wives In that immediate vicinity have
been 6eeping a watchful eye on Au,
gusts place. The housewives declare
that their husbands have been known
to return home from the place In
various degrees of effluviency. They
brought about by an over-indulgence
In bon-bons.
The saloonkeepers, who pay a H.
cense OF $500 year to engage in the
liquor traffic during other days than
the Sabbath, opined there was enough
beer In the neighborhood at five cents
per glass or bottle to go around. They
conflded their suspicious to the po-
lice and two officers invaded the place
and succeeded In purchasing two bot
ties OF beer, for which they paid 10
cents. Bayrowski made the sale.
Zielke was charged in police court
with operating blind pig. During
his trial In the lower court, Bayrow-
ski entered as the martyr. He volun-
teered the information that he sold
the beer and received the 10 cents
for 1t. Accordingly, complaint twas
made against him. a..
Monday morning, he told Hidge
Phelan that there was only case Of
beer In the place.
you see, It was like this" he said.
Mr.. Zielke and me, we had a bet on
the baseball. l lost the bet and had
to buy the beer. bought IL and
took 1t to the candy store"
The Judge then entered into a dis
cussion about baseball with Anthony
and 1t developed that Anthony didn't
know the difference between q base
hit and base on balls.
Your batting eye is very bad this
morning" said the Judge. your de-
Tense Is very unique, but is rather
weak behind the bat"
II also developed that the 10 cents
taken In by Anthony later found it's
way into the Zielke till. Judge Phelan
decided that the fine would have 10
stand az q warning to other operators
OF speak-easies, which are said to
flourish In that neighborhood.
The court offered various remarks
about the unfairness of the speak.
easies and declared that all cases OF
similar nature would be summariIy
dealt with. He sympthized with Bay.
rowski and In fatherly talk advised
MIN not to be so reckless in the fu-
ture.
Mr.. zielke was in court and listened
TO some very whitening remarks from
the bench. Zielke said he would make
an effort TO raise the 5000 for his
martyred friend.

plants Ready; Others In Sight.
The Detroit United railway 10 fast
piling up trouble for itself by refusing
to accept workingmen's tickets on the
stretch of track between the old and
the new city limits out Grand River
ave. Corporation Counsel Hally now
has two complaints ready for fling,
and probably will have a couple OF
more when Wednesday, complaint
day, rolls around.
James Walsh, the employe OF the
corporation counsel's ONCE who IL
gathering the evidence for these COM
plants, was put on the car, Saturday
night, when he offered working
mans ticket in payment OF his fare.
This will be the basis Of one OF the
complaints. Walsh will go out again
Monday evening. on the same mis-
sion to do SO as long as the company
keeps on refusing to accept the
tickets.
On top of this comes evidence that
the company is violating the edict OF
the supreme court with respect TO the
Fairview district. Mr.. Hally has re-
ceived a letter from j. w. Berns, q
member OF the Crosse Pointe village
council, who complains that an extra
fare was demanded Of him between
the Jefferson car barns and the Alter
road after he had once paid his fare
with a three-cent ticket, when he
boarded the car down town. At the
barns a new crew took charge Of the
car and the conductor proceeded to
collect another fare from everybody
on the car. Mr. Hally will advise Mr..
Berns to demand his nickel back and.
IL the company refuses to give II, to
bring suit, as a matter OF principle.

HALLY TO PREPARE
PHONE ORDINANCE
Committee Recommends That he Go
Ahead With Measure To Provide
Reasonable Regulation.

Definite steps toward securing ade.
quate telephone service at reasonable
rates and under reasonable regula-
lions were taken, Monday morning, in
meeting Of the special committee ap-
pointed over two years ago to investi.
gate the question. The committee
headed by Aid. Ellis, decided to recon-
mend to the council, Tuesday night
that Corporation Counsel Hally be in.
structed to draft an ordinance cover
ing the subject and that he be allowed
to employ such assistance as he
deems necessary to secure the needed
information. Mr.. Hally told the com.
mittee that he would be ready to start
in about three weeks.
This plan was stoutly opposed by
Aid. Freiwald and Field. who main
tanned that II was the committees
duty to make the investigation and Sc.
cure the data to be used by Mr. Hally
in drafting the ordinance. The com
mittee had no right. they contended,
to delegate such powers to the cor
poration counsel, and charged that
the other members were trying to
shirk their duty. In q yelled way 1t
was suggested that the corporation
counsel had been responsible for
much OF the delay In taking up the
investigation.
The action taken by the committee.
Monday, was based on the opinion rem
dered by Mr.. Hally last week to the
effect that the council has power TO
regulate the rates and service OF the
telephone companies. Aid. Grindley
moved at the outset that Mr.. Hally be
instructed to go ahead with the prep
aration OF an ordinance, and the mat
ter was argued for about an hour be-
fore q vote was taken. Aid. Fields
amendment, which Freiwald seconded.
providing for an investigation by the
committee, was defeated by a vote OF
z to g., Grindley's motion then car
ried. Field and Freiwald still holding
out against II.
To secure the information necessary
for the framing of the ordinance 1t
will be necessary to hire an expert.
and inquiries will have to be made
In other cities as TO the rates that
obtain there. For this purpose the
council already has appropriated
$1,000. When Mr.. Hally has prepared
the ordinance he will submit 1t to the
council, and the telephone companies
win then be given an opportunity TO
come In and be heard on the PROPOSE
ton. That the courts will be called
upon to determine the validity OF such
an ordinance Is regarded as almost
certain. and one OF the main reasons
why the majority Of the committee
favored turning the work over to Mr..
Hally was the certainty that he would
be called upon to defend the ordinance
In court.
The special telephone committee Is
composed OF the committees on pub
lie utilities and ordinances. Those
present, Monday morning, were: Aid.
Ellis, chairman; Allan, Grindiey, Frer
valid, Walsh, Garvey. Goeschel, Gut
man. Field, Deimel, Koenig and Rein
hardt.
During the discussion Mr.. Hally an
nounced that he would begin suit 10
establish the city's title to the old
Peoples Telephone Co. condufts'
which we're purchased by the Mieht
gan State Telephone Co, as soon a.
he had made up his mind as to the
form of procedure.
