GOD DON'T WANT YAP
OR PREDETERMINED
SUNDAY TO PENN MEN

Cigarette smoking, paddle Drained
yaps" came in for some rough verbal
handling by Billy" sunGay at noon to-
day, when the evangelist stood before 5000
students of the University In the GYM
nasium, crashed his fist down on a table
and started his first TRADE of the day
against sin.
Long before Mr.. Sunday arrived at the
University the scene about the big GYM
nasium gave ample evidence of the well
come that was to be accorded him. The
student body seemed to have forgotten all
else but BILLY Sunday.
Many who heard the evangelist when he
spoke three times at the University last
March. waited outside to get a glimpse
of the baseball player-preacher, knowing
his voice has the power to carry to all
parts OF the big gymnasium, and even
those far off could hear him.
WAIT FOR THE EVANGELIST.
Meanwhile the line had begun to form
at the tabernacle at II o'clock for the
afternoon service, to start at o'clock.
BY noon hundreds of men and women

OF GOV. GOEBEL'S SLAYER
Party Split in Plea on Kentucky
Case.

Party Split in Plea on Kentucky
Case.
LEXINGTON KY. Jan. s-Twenty-
FIVE thousand voters, principally Demo-
Gratis, have signed petition to Governor
McCreary asking that he parole Henry
Youtsey. the only man of 10 accused
of completely in the murder OF Governor
William Goebel in 1900. who is still in
prison
About 5000 Republicans and Democrats
on another petition oppose the parole
of Youtsey. They say he almost with
out question, fired the shot that killed
Goebel. The fact that many Democrats
are of the same opinion puts Governor
McCreary face to face with a split in
his own party.
The majority OF Democrats always have
favored Youtseys going free, although
he made two sensational confessions dur
ing the trials of Caleb Powers and others
arrested in connection with the murder.
Justus Goebel, brother of the murdered
Governor, has been asked by Youtsey to
come to his aid. He has refused to do so

SEES NO REASON FOR DELAY.
Robert d. Dripps. Common Councilman
from the 22d Ward, said. today he could
see no reason why the special election
should be held as late as June l.
II favor action on the transit matter
at the earliest possible date" Mr.. Dripps
said. Director Taylor plans to institute
1 understand. That work, made possible
by the 100000 item in the 81, 100000 loan,
will include the lowering and changing
of lines of sewers in the central city that
in their present location would obstruct
the proposed central part of the loop of
the subway.
''If the funds from the $50, 900 loan
were to be available this summer" he
said, 'it Is probable that the central city
excavations not only could be made for
the relocation Of the sewers, but also for
the simultaneous start of the subway
work."
COUNCILS AND THE ORDINANCES.
The two ordinances sent to Councils
yesterday by Director Taylor and intro
duced by John P. Connolly chairman of
the Finance Committee, provide for sub
mitting the proposition of increasing, the
debt of the city by s3O,OOOOOO to the voters
at a special election. That election would
decide whether or not the city shall have
the hlgh-speed lines.
The ordinances have been referred to
the Committee on Finance. The action
of that committee, which reflects the at
titude of the Organization leaders, will
indicate whether continuance of oppo-
sition to the subway plans will follow or
whether the welfare OF the citizens shall
be considered.
prompt favorable report of the
Finance Committee on the ordinances will
place the measures on Councils calendar
for early passage or rejection.
John P. Connolly, chairman of the COM
mittee, suggested that the special election
might be held on Tuesday, June l. That
suggestion Is regarded as q desire to in
troduce a delay to the inception of the
project during the present administration.
If the special election is not held be-
fore June l. the necessary legal certifca-
ton OF the election, the subsequent adver-
tlsing or the intent of the city to create
the loan. and the requisite legislative pro-
cedure in Councils would delay making
the money actually available until late in
1915.
The summer recess of Councils, coming
shortly after the date Connolly has named
for the election, would add to the delay
and introduce new complications.
ELECTION TO HASTEN PROJECT.
By special election in March, it is
pointed out the legal processes involved
before making the authorized loan sub
ject to appropriation could be terminated
entirely before Councils begin their sum
mer recess. The appropriation bills could
be passed and work on the transit pro-
ject proper could be instituted in con-
junction with the Preliminary steps I'm
relocating the sewers in the central part
OF the city that will be begun in March
under the $4,000 item of the sl1.OOO,O 900
loan.
