PHILADELPHIA STIRRED UP
OVER MULHALL EXPOSE


The Mulhau exposure has stirred
up a rumpus in the Philadelphia Cen
trail Labor Union, of which Frank
Feeney, said by MuIhan to have been
on his pay roll, is a prominent factor.
Feeney and his crowd control the
G. L. U. and are also thick with the
Republican machine, which, under
PenrOse and MacNichOI, controls
Philadelphia politics.
Some of the rank and file are de-
handing an investigation of the
charges against Feeney, and his ma
chine is opposing any investigation,
The News-POst, a daily friendly to
labor, got MUIhan to consent to come
to Philadelphia and present his evil
dence against Feeney to the c. L. U.
MuIhaU testified that Feeney had
been on his pay roll and had furnish
ed inside information concerning or
ganized labor, for the use of the Ma

CHAPTER v.
Tom Phinney Returns.


During this ride it occurred to Van
Vechten that he had seen nothing Of
Tom Phinney since he had sent him
away brusquely the day before. He
wondered not little at his friends
prolonged absence, hoped that Tom
was not huffy, and finally concluded
that he had tired Of waiting upon an
uncertainty and had gone off upon
some jaunt of his own.
The Man of Iron hardened attentive
ly to what Rudolph had to say, but if
the narration prompted any misgivings
he showed them not at all. He consid-
cred moment, after the younger man
had finished, then said:
"One woman might drop from sight
in number Of ways, but it is too i'm
probable to believe that both Paige
and Josephine could have been made
away with without ripple reaching
the shore. Both merit a stern rebuke,
although apprehend that nothing seri-
GUS has happened"
And Theodore Van Vechten dis
missed the subject, nor would he dis
cuss 1t any further during Rudolph's
stay.
A furious thunderstorm was rar'ng
when the latter was ready to DEF art,
so he perforce dined with his uncle,
and instead of returning to the Pow
hatan, went directly to the Kenm 1re,
where he surprised BGrnicle with an
explicit injunction not to be perl.ii-
ted to sleep minute later than sev, i
o'clock.
Seven, did you say, sir" as '.el
Barnicle, too thunGcrstruck to b1l:eNa
his own ears.
The Yong man regarded MS agc /
! valet a tlihe sardonically.
You old saiyr Go to bed TT de-
cent hour, and to sleep-mark that,
Barnicle ?-and you will find it no
great hardship to rise before seven
o'clock"
"Oh. it's no 'ardship at all, sir; just
-er-beggin' your pardon. sir-just a
bit unusual, if l may be allowed to
say so, sir"
WELL" Van Vechten announced, 81
am going to turn in now. And l want
to be up by seven"
An hour later, satisfied that his
master actually was in sound slum-
Der, Barnicle blinked at the bedroom
door in a bewildered way, then at the
cellarette. Next he produced key,
opened the richly carved door and
poured himself a stiff peg of brandy.
Having consumed this with evident
relish, glass and bottle were replaced,
the door was closed and locked, and
then Barnicle moved with an air Of
stealth to the desk telephone.
Cautiously he seated himself and
noiselessly took down the receiver,
calling for number In voice so low
that he was obliged to repeat it. NUT
fling the mouth.piece with one hand,
he held a long CONVERSATIONAL in q
mysterious undertone--in the course
| of which he replied to numerous qucS-
lions on the part of his unseen inter.
locutor.
Followed several minutes of intent
listening by Barnicle, then he said:
"Mr. Rudolph is not a gentleman
that shows is feelings, don't y'know,
and that Is what makes me sure that

small amount of glue along the edge.
Bind the edge with gilt gimp about
an inch wide, by sewing lightly at

London's First Charter.

The first charter of the city of Lon
don was granted by William 1. in the
year 1879. This document, written in
Saxon on parchment, is still preserved
and reads as follows: William, the
king, greeteth William, the bishop, and
Godfrey, the portreeve, and all the
burgesses within London friendly.
And l acQuaint you that will that ye
be all there law-worthy as we were in
King Edwards days. And / will that
every child be his fathers heir after
his fathers days. And l will not suf-
fer that any man do you any wrong.
God preserve u.s." The "portreeve"
referred to was the chief officer Of
London, the name signifying chief
governor of a harbor. Afterward the
chief officer was called provost, and
in the reign of Henry II. the Norman
title of maire, soon afterward changed
into mayor, was brought into use.
The first London official to hold the
title of mayor was Henry Fitz-Alwyn,
who assumed the Office in 1889, and
continued to hold it "a years. The
prefix of lord" was granted by Ed
ward III. in 1854.
