MERELY COMMENT

street railways emecuVely. Keep
Fostering EN- until they decide to be
good and give the public decent ser
vice.
Any city administration that really
wants to represent the people can
make any public service corporation
do what it ought to do.
Too often public officials are closer
to the corporations than they are to
the people.
But it's all tommyrot to let the
street railways hold the city up for
more privileges as the price for doing
what they agreed to do under the
franchises they now have.
More franchises mean more bonds,
more watered stock, more graft and
more debt on which the people who
ride on street cars have to pay the
interest.
The Daily News yesterday discov-
cred another man who was lack
rolled" in the Desplaines street police
district.
The man was told he couldn't get
any more drinks in Rubin's saloon,
5 South Halsted, staggered out of the
place, and fell and fractured his head
on the sidewalk.
If the Daily News wants to correct
this state of affairs it might advo-
cate prohibition else recommend
that Halsted saloonkeepers keep only
the best booze.
Incidentally, both the News and
Judge Mahoney ought to get wise as
to. what jackrolled really means.
JackroIled men don't carry fras-
tured skulls to show where they were
''jackrolled"
The gentle art Of iackrOIIing con-
sists of getting man so drunk he
gees quietly to sleep, whereupon the
jackroller quietly and efficiently rolls

made his plea for a painless death
while undergoing an operation, in his
own home at 1884 Constance avenue.
Mr. WayInan was very nervous"
said Murray. ''He seemed to fear a
complete breakdown. He said to me :;
IF you're friend of mine, please
take me to a hospital and cut some
vital part that will cause death
won't you, Doc?'"
Murray said that he had told
Thomas Marshall, Wayman's law
partner, who was first assistant
states attorney under Wayman, of
this conversation. the night before
Wayman shot himself.
Marshall, who was in the room,
jumped to- his feet, and demanded
that he be put under oath. When this
was done, he swore that Murray did
not tell of the conversation until
after Wayman's death.
Then came Murray's story of at
tempted intimidation by Mcclure.
Mcclure came to me in my Of
fce," he said. "He told me he had
heard l intended telling of the con-
versation I had had with WRyman
the week before his death. He asked
me if 1 were in league with the in
surance companies. told him was
not, and that could not be buIlied
or frightened into giving false testi-
mony."
Mcclure, who was in the room,
denied he had tried to "intimidate"
Murray.
81 just asked him if he was in with
the insurance companies, . the detec-
tive said.
Dr.. William o. Krohn, house ply
stefan at the Hotel Del Prado, was
called. He contradicted Murray by
saying he believed Wayman's death
due more to accident than design.

dal with John Wayman's name," said
