The district attorney added conf
IDENTIFY:
1T certainly did not weaken the
States case against Mrs. Carman.'
Take Defense by Surprise.
The defense had no inkling that the
negro maid was to take the stand
yesterday. The plan was purposely
kept a secret. When it did become
known that Celia had testified and
gone away George Levy, Mrs. Car
mans counsel, fastened to give out
statement, purported to have been
dictated by the prisoner, who sat in
her CELL not a hundred yards away
from the grand jury room. nervously
awaiting some report that might in
dictate that she was not to be indicted
for Mrs. Bailey's murder.
In this statement Mrs. Carman as
serted her innocence and said:
~ only ask that the public suspend
Judgment upon me until the entire
truth in regard to the murder of poor
Mrs. Bailey is known"
For days there have been reports
some of them semi offieial-that the
negro maid would tell a different
story from the one she told at the in
quest, but even the district attorney
himself did not realize how much the
testimony before the grand jury
would deny the former statement.
While the District-Attorney does
not look with favor upon Mrs. Car
mans appearance before the grand
jury, he realizes that it presents him
with an opportunity rarely accorded
public prosecutor. With the in
formation in his possession he feels
he can so attack her story that If it
he untrue it will tumble to ruin about
her. There will be no lawyer at her
elbow to protect her with objections,
no one to shield her from the search
ing inquiries of the District -Attor-
ney. She will be alone with him and
the nineteen men who are to judge
her, and she will need all the courage
she can summon.
1t is District-Attorney Smiths
present intention to close his case
on Friday and he says he expects
immediate action upon 1t by the
grand jury.

Philadelphia Trolleymen
Vote for Cooperation Plan

PHILADELPHIA, July 15--An-
nouncement was made today that the
vote cast yesterday by the motormen
and conductors of the Philadelphia
Rapid Transit Company resulted in
the men deciding to continue for an
other year the present cooperative
plan by which the men deal as in
dividuals with the company rather
than through a labor organization.
About $500 men are involved.
The cooperative plan, in force here
since 1911, Is said to be the only one
of its kind in the country. The COM
pany sets aside twenty-five per cent.
of the gross passenger receipts into
a fund from which wages are paid.
The wages of the men have been in
creased since the strike of 1910 from
maximum of twenty-three cents an
hour TO a maximum of thirty cents
for.men in the service five years. The
minimum wage for new men Is TWEEN
ty-five cents an hour. A feature of
the plan is the election by the men
of cooperative committeeman who
are expected to look after the inter-
ests of the motormen and conductors.

thereby increasing the federal forces
by 100 men.

His testimony was In response to
House resolution of Representative
Townsend of New Jersey, calling for
an Investigation OF the financing of
the Pittsburgh Terminal Company,
which Mr.. Townsend declared is
worse than the footing of the New

Mr.. Townsend informed the COM

in from banks, insurance companies
and private investors in the stock of
the Wabash Pittsburgh Terminal
Company since 1908. Former Presi-
dent Taft, President Wilson and the
department of justice have been petit

Juggling" of that company appeared
to be "a scientific job of bungling its

Ramsey brought in a Cleveland law

Commerce Commission, because the
receivers would give more consider

AWARD CONTRACT
/. BORROWER HOUSE
Linde & Griffith Co. to Erect
New Plant for Public Ser
vice Electric Company.

The Public Service Electric Com
pany yesterday awarded to Linde &
Griffith Company. of this city. the
contract for the erection of the com
pany's new Essex power plant at
Point No-Point, on the Newark
meadows. The plans for the power
plant and dockage facilities were APP
proved yesterday by the New Jersey
Harbor Commission. The contract is
to be completed within five months.
The work authorized includes a
timber and concrete bulkhead dock,
500 feet in length: dredging from the
channel to the shore line of the river,
intake and discharge canals and the
foundation for coal tower and con-
veyer. Operations will be begun as
soon as the contractor can assemble
pleted within six months. Nearly
pleted within SIX months. Nearly
100000 is involved.
Because the channel Of the Passaic
river swings toward the kearny
shore at the point, 1t will be neces-
sary for the company to dredge some-
thing like $4,000 cubic yards in order
to get sufficient depth of water at its
wharf. Only a portion of the dredg-
ing will be done before the dock is
built. as the bulk of the dredged ma
teriai will be used for filing back of
the dock and on the power-house site.
So also will be the material dug from
the intake and discharge canals.
These are intended to provide sup
ply of water for condensing purposes
which water after being used, will be
returned to the river.
The intake canal will have a width
of fifty-eight feet and the discharge
canal will be fifty-four feet wide.
They will be dug to depth of thirty
feet so as to provide a maximum
water supply for condensing purposes
of 20000,O00 gallons an hour, which
quantity, 1t is figured, will be neces-
sary when the plant reaches its full
capacity of approximately 100000
horsepower.
