LAWSON SAYS LICENSES
MAY BE TRANSFERRED

Aid. Dingeman But things that may
have happened In the past Will not
occur before the present committee.
The charge has been made that we
are attempting TO evade the law; on
the contrary we are trying TO live up
TO the letter of the law and as re-
suit | am hopeful that we can make
quite cut in the number or saloons
before next May"
Congressman Cramton spoke on the
saloon question before the Lincoln
day banquet OF the Mems club OF the
Simpson NJ. e. church "Wednesday
night. He expressed his surprise that
the corporation counsel and the COM
mon council profess 70 see difficulty In
reducing the number OF saloons.
Detroit has ample power under the
law TO reduce the number--provided 1t
wants 70 use that power" he said.
Since the law went into effect in 1909
the common council has not had the
right to transfer license. Therefore
the license OF every saloonkeeper who
has retired from business within the
last four years, is dead. 1t is within
the authority of the present liquor
committee to revoke licenses issued In
their place. A license is not prop
erty right and cannot be sold"
Congressman Cramton declared that

SAVED FROM DEATH
BY DINNER DAMPER
Doctor Arrives in Time to Keep
a Starving Man from
Feasting.

Life looked very dark to Peter NeplCs
an iron worker. yesterday as he lay down
in the hallway OF No. 100 Greenwich
street. exhausted after his continuous but
unsuccessful hunt for work Day after
day since last September Neples. then a
stalwart man, had valnly sought employ
ment For weeks he had subsisted upon
what he could pick from free lunch coun-
ters His once muscular frame began 10
shrink and lose strength under such
meagre nourishment until he was only a
shadow OF his former self
AS Neples shufied almlessly down
Greenwich street yesterday morning he felt
the gnawing pains OF starvation; he grew
dizzy and he sank into the hallway. A
few minutes later Patrolman Johns found
the iron worker there, unconscious, and
removed him TO the station house.
When the other policemen heard the
man was starving they made up a sub
scription and bought a generous meal
Just as Neples. ravenous, was about to
satisfy his craving for food the ambu-
lance surgeon, who had been summoned
from the Hudson Street Hospital. arrived.
He refused 10 let the starving iron work
er touch the solid food. saying 1t would
kill him. Instead Neples was only al
lowed to sip Of little warm milk.
When the man was taken to the hos
ptal another subscription was taken up.
His condition is serious.

PLAN TO BETTER MARKETS
Living Cost Committee Named
at City Club.

The question Of what reorganization OF
the markets of greater New York may be
effected to reduce the high cost Of living
will be considered by a committee that
was appointed yesterday at the City Club.
Representatives Of the railroads, farmers
and consumers met at the City Club TO
hear an informal report by four invest-
gators whom the federal government sent
TO Europe last year TO make a study OF
agricultural conditions. The investigators
were Frederick II. Allen, c. c. Mitchell.
r. D. Van Cortlandt and Professor
George n. Lauman, Of Cornell Univer-
sity.
Oscar S. Straus said that in Great Brit
ain, France and Germany the markets are
run very much more economically. great
savings being made by cooperative in
stitutions, but that care must be taken
that the cooperative principle be not used
for the benefit of a small clique.
Edwin f. Howell, a member Of the
executive committee of the New York
State League OF Savings and Loan Asso-
Citations, said that the unit Of cooper
alton is always at the bottom, and that
all big cooperative movements must be-
gin at the bottom with the individual
small producer or consumer.
The committee for permanent organiza-
ton was announced by the chairman as
Frederick II. Allen. William Church Os-
born, Mrs. Julian Heath. Oscar S. Straus
and Bailey b. Burritt.

URGES BUSINESS HONESTY
Prosecutor Asks Jewellers to
Follow Crooked Bankrupts.

II. Snowden Marshall, United States
District Attorney, IN addressing the
Jewellers Board OF Trade at luncheon
at the Whitehall Club yesterday on "Busi-
ness Dishonesty" urged his hearers 10
cooperate with him in the prosecution
OF mercantile crimes. He referred espe-
cially 10 the prevalence Of dishonest bank
rupts, and called upon the jewelry trade
not 10 rest satisfied with what was due
them as creditors bat 10 work unceas-
ingly and unselhshly TO put the dishonest
bankrupt behind the bars.
Mr.. Marshall said that a comparison Of
the administration OF the laws here and
abroad was not favorable to this country.
Statistics showed, he said, that more homi-
cides were committed here than abroad,
and that II it were possible TO get the
figures il would be found that mercantile
crimes also were more prevalent here.

Buffalo. Nov. 1S.-'Do the $4,000 de-

This was question taken up by
speakers at the opening Of the New
York State conference on charities and
corrections here to-day.
NO one knows what we are doing for
these children" said Charles n. John
son. superintendent OF the Albany Or
phan Asylum. This is due In d large

institutions, maintained by private be-
nevolence. are not required to report 10

Mr.. Yoakum said that the Rock Island
Railroad lost heavily by the deal through
which it acquired control of the Frisco in
1896 BY this deal the Rock Island ex-
changed $40 OF its own stock and bonds
for each 800 share OF Frisco stock. Six
years later the Rock Island sold its
Frisco holdings TO Yoakum, Edward
Hawley, James Campbell and a syndicate
for $37 30 a share.
Mr.. Yoakum said that the Rock Island
securities that entered into the $40 pay
ment were not worth par. but that the
Rock Island lost money. nevertheless.
The examiner then went into the petit
ton for the receivership. which was filed
by James Campbell of St Louis.
why did he petition for a receiver
ship" was the question.
1T began to look dark for the opera
ton Of the road without a receiver" Mr..
Yoakum replied.
WAS there any effort TO get aid from
banks other than those interested In the
'Frisco?"
II don't think So"
Gould you have obtained higher prices
from other bankers"
