Alice FRAUD
IN Grocery DEAL

Joseph r. Richardson, former
secretary and treasurer OF the Joseph
R. Richardson Company, wholesale
grocers, which went INFO the hands
OF a receiver last July. was held in
$1,000 bail on the charge of obtain
ing goods under false pre;enses, fol-
lowing a preliminary hearing before
Magistrate Buckley this afternoon,
for a further hearing On next Mon
day.
Mr.. Richardson is alleged to have
obtained groceries valued at 1861
from c. f. BOnsar Of Philadelphia,
from March until July IA. by making
what are said to have been false
statements concerning the amount of
goods owned by his company. It is
declared the defendant led the prose-
cutting concern to believe he had
$4,000 worth of stock, when, as
matter Of fact, the RichaI dson Com
pany went into the hands of a re-
ceiver with $4,000 worth of stock on
hand.
Mr.. Richardson was represented by
Philip L. Garrett. who commended
that no criminal charge could be sup
ported by the evidence. as il was
Bonsar's duty to have satisfied him
self as to the true condition Of the
Richardson Company before shipping
goods on credit to the company. He
showed that Mr. Richardson bought
goods from Bonsar and paid cash for
the mand that at the time the bill in
question was contracted the defend
ant did have $4,000 worth of gro
ceries on hand. Mr.. Garrett main
tanned that the transaction was hon
est and that the defendant had no
| desired to defraud Bonsar. The legal
points raised by Mr.. Garrett we're so
| numerous and of such Importance
| that Magistrate Buckley said he
would have to take time to decide the
case. Meanwhile. Mr.. Richardson is
out on bail. Leonard E. Wales repre-
scented Bonsar.

Suspension of Morris b. Smith. a

hearing before the committee on nav

OF navigation at Philadelphia.
The committee acted on complaint
OF Captain John ]. Knapp. command

had undertaken TO bring the battle
ship up the Delaware when he was
not in condition, but had been per-
mitted to do so. The captain also
complained about the pilotage system
here saying that sufficient RESPONSE
bility does not .attach to pilots and
that there Is not enough supervision
over them in the lower reaches o.
the river. The committee announced
that mediate steps would be taken
to remedy this condition.

Bottle Sealing Company. of this city,
alleging infringement of patent, on a
bottle closure. In his opinion Judge
Bradford reviewed at length the de-

Crown Company. IL was alleged that
the Wheeler patented machine vrned
out the stopper in three elements.
namely, the metal cap, the fusibe
binding. medium and cork disc. These
in the Wheeler patent are all assem-
bled and heated in the assembled con-
dition, before subjected to pressure,
the pressure being applied to the
closures while cooling.
The machine used by the defendant
company, the brief stated. turned out
metal cap with the adhesive binding
medium. which was passed under
blow pipe burner, acting directly on
the adhesive, and after being heated
the cork disc is inserted by a plunger
and kept under constant pressure
while cooling. The court found that
that under these conditions the two
machines we're different and therefore
dismissed the case.

EFFECTIVE CIVIC EFFORT.

To the Editor Of THE EVENING
JOURNAL
Sir-Of the various meetings which
have been held during the past few
years to better local conditions, the
most significant and encouraging was
the meeting of last Monday evening.
under the auspices of the Ninth Ward
Civic Association. II significance
lies in the large number of men pres
ent. in the number Of representative
men who participated and in the good
tempered interest that was manifest.
II was vertically a town meeting. in
which public officials and private
citizens met on a common footing and
discussed, in a good-natured and Oft
times humorous manner, matters of
moment to the entire city.
It revealed the fact that a new type
of citizen is emerging from our midst.
The old type. who does nothing but
grumble and growl. and once in
awhile. breaks out in an anonymous
I letter to the press, in which he re-
lieves himself Of a musty crouch, is
passing. The new type that is taking
his place organizes himself and his
kind into a civic association, and
meets every now and then to devise
ways and means to better existing
conditions. Instead of knocking the
city officials behind their backs, he
invites them to the meetings of his
association. and, in a friendly, candid
way, has it out with them. Instead
Of deliberately lunching. while some
expensive out-of-tOwn expert talks on
what is doing under his auspices in
far-away places, the new citizen cuts
out the hot-air and goes in for team
work with his fellows along some
constructive, line.
