FABIAN WITHDRAWS NAME
Nomination Papers for County Com
missioner Attacked in Court

The nomination papers of Joseph Fa~
bian, on the Washington party ticket for
County Commissioner, were withdrawn
today when it was brought out at a
further hearing on the objections to the
petition before Judge Patterson that sew
eral of the signatures were forgeries and
that one signer was not a naturalized
citizen.
Harry Freeman, of 419 South 4th street,
and Andrew Willis Graham, also signers
of the petition, were severely repri-
manded by Judge Patterson for interfer-
ing with witnesses subpoenaed to appear
in court last week and explain If they
were members of the Washington party
and entitled to sign the petition.
There were 104 signers to the petition,
which was attacked on the ground that
It did not contain the requisite number
of Washington party electors to make
II a valid nominating petition under the
law. Witnesses who failed to answer
subpoenas last week were brought in this
morning on attachments. They declared
that they had failed to obey the sum-
mons because Freeman and Graham told
them not to pay any attention to the sub
poenas.
Judge Patterson then told Freeman and
Graham that il they again interfered
with the process OF a court subpoena they
would be sent to jail.

MTNEYNIEN AGAIN
REPULSED IN COURT
Judges Decline to Grant Injunc-
tion Against Enforcement
of Ordinance

The jitneymen were blocked again to-
day In two moves designed to permit them
to resume business at once. Judge Pat
terson refused the request OF Michael
Francis Doyle for the Philadelphia Jitney
Association and the South Philadelphia
Jitney Owners Association for pre-
liminary injunction.
Judge Finletter, In Court OF Common
Pleas No. 4, refused to grant prelim-
mary Injunction or hearing In the bill in
equity, filed by Harry Shapiro and Harry
NJ. Berkowitz for the Union Motor Bus
Company, to restrain the city from en-
forcing the ordinance. He said he be-
lievede a hearing would be a review Of
the hearing before Judge Ferguson some
time ago, and that II would be undigni-
fed of him to grant &C. September 20
was set as a date TO begin arguments for
a permanent injunction In this case.
Mr.. Doyle told Judge Patterson that the
jitney drivers are losing 5000 a day
through the enforced cessation OF busi-
ness. He pointed out that the associa-
tions he represents are not connected
with the Jitney Auto Service Company.
This organization obtained the original in
junction, which was vacated in all but
the zone clause when the company failed
to file a bond Of $500 required by Judge
Sulzberger
II was pointed out by Judge Patterson
today that the final hearing on the injunc-
tion granted by Judge Sulzberger will be
on September IS, and, in view of this,
Judge Patterson said. he would not grant
Mr.. Doyle's request for another injunc-
tion. Jitney drivers thronged the court
rooms and listened TO the argument Of
their attorney. They were badly disap-
pointed at the result, as they had been
confident OF securing an injunction.

100 JOBLESS MEN

SUBWAY FOR CITY
Many Others Promised EN-
ployment in Few Days.
Work Is Begun in Earnest
Today
PEDESTRIANS SAFET Y
Essential Steps in Actual Construc'
tion Operations Under City Hall
Courtyard Taken

Several hundred men crowded City Hall
Plaza early today looking for employ
ment on the Broad street subway work,
under City Hall. The foreman in charge
for the keystone State Construction
Company, took on more than a hundred
laborers and the others were told more
men would be needed within few days.
The work began in earnest today. The
southern and western sections of the
courtyard and the northwest corner OF
the plaza had been entirely ripped open
on Saturday and yesterday, and the eX-
Cavation began today.
Within the courtyard the excavation
for the big pit, which is to house the
hydraulic pumps used in connection with
the City Hall elevator system, was be-
gun. On the plaza outside digging on the
subway proper was started. The heavy,
wooden framework which is to support
the electrical dredging machinery has
been almost completed in both places.
S. NJ. Swaab. chief engineer in charge
of the construction of the subway, decided
today to move the heavy bronze statues
of DR. Joseph Leidy and John Christian
Bullitt from their present locations on
the plaza in order that all possibility
of their being injured may be removed.
The statue of Doctor Leidy is situated
on the west side of the plaza and nortn
of the Market street entrance to the
courtyard, while the other Is located on
the southern side and west of the Broad
street entrance. Derricks to effect the
moving of the statues from the line Of
the subway we're put in place today.
As the work proceeds, II will be neces-
sary to close off the southern end of the
Broad street passageway during the
night hours, diverting the north and
south pedestrian traffic through the cor
ridors of the building.
On the western end OF the Market
street passageway safety barriers will
be erected. leaving a space of about 10
feet for wagon traffic and leaving about
one-third the width of the present pas
sageway for passenger traffic.
In addition to the big hole In the court
yard and the wide excavation at the
northwestern corner of the building a 30
foot shaft viii be sunk at the southern
end of the City Hall later The pave
ment will probably be removed today
for beginning the work.
