FIRE CHIEF TO PREVENT MURRAY
ENDANCERINC LIVES Of PATRONS.

Lives of hundreds OF citizens have
been jeopardized because the city
council turned down an ordinance re-
quested by Fire Chief Miller to stop
the selling OF tickets In movie houses
after their seating capacities have
been exhausted.
One of the most flagrant abuses OF
public safety took place at the Muir
ray theatre last night when the lobby
was packed SO tightly by the manage
ment that persons leaving the house
had to fight their way out.
The patrolman on this beat called
up Fire Chief Miller and was instruct
ed to clear the lobby and keep the
exits clear. He also was instructed to
report to the fire chief at once il he
did not succeed in carrying out the
order.
No. subsequent report was made.
and Fire Chief Miller believed the
patrolman had executed his order.

Nine-year-old Theolinda De Vito,
prosecuting witness against Joe Cap

ed to the witness stand In city court
this morning that she could not talk.
Then -she-was taken out or the room
and the case came to halt. Had the
child remained. in the court room she
probably would have been frightened
into Mysteries because Prosecutor Rel
Ter and Henry u. johnson, attorney
for Capozza, put on a near fist fight
and verbally bombarded each other so
violently that the uproar was heard all
over the city hail.
After the prosecutor had passed the
lie. his infuriated adversary sprang at
him with an oath. nearly upsetting q
table which stood between him and
Keller. The prosecutor with clinched
fists awaited the attack, but before
the brandished fists of Johnson fell
upon him Officer Vogelsong with mace
uplifted sprang between the two men.

When city employees began placing
"No Parking Here" signs along Main
street this morning, the business men
at once got busy in starting move
ment to have rescinded the unpopular
and, as they refer to It., nonsensical
ordinance prohibiting not only the
parking OF vehicles in the business dis
trict Of Main street, but, II strictly in
terpreted, preventing vehicles stopping
on the street any longer than would
be required for their occupants to
, alight.
In a remonstrance which was being
prepared today to have circulated for
signatures, it is pointed out that the
enforcement of such an ordinance
would impair the friendship now ex-
listing between residents Of Richmond
and people living in the neighboring
towns and rural districts. This re-
monstrance, address to council, reads
IS follows:
| I'VE. the undersigned Main street
business firms respectfully petition
your honorable body to, repeal the or.
dinance recently passed by which the
parking Of automobiles and other We
hicles from Fourth street to Eleventh.
on Main street, is prohibited.
Your petitioners would respectfully
represent that this ordinance, IL its
drastic provisions are strictly enforc.
led. will work severe hardship and IN
convenience on hundreds Of patrons OF
Main street business houses, for II
such ordinance is enforced the owner
of an automobile or any other vehicle
will not be permitted to leave such
vehicle in front of any business house
on Main street while actually trans
acting business within. We believe
that the parking of automobiles along
Main street for prolonged periods
should be done away with If possible.
but we do not believe that the citizen
whose automobile or other vehicle is
parked on Main street during the time
he or some occupant of his machine is
transacting business in any of the
stores, should be interfered with IN
the slightest degree.

LYONS DESCRIBES FIRE:
RETURNS TO RICHMOND:
PICTURES SHOW ATHINA|

I'VE didn't think any more of the
fire than would of fire in the boiler
room of the Y. M. c.. A. here" said
Ross Lyons today, in relating his ad-
ventures on the Greek steamer, Ath-
inai. which caught fire and burned off
Halifax last Saturday and Sunday. Mr..
Lyons was enroute to Constantinople
to accept q position as physical direc-
tor in the Roberts college. an Ameri-
can institution. s.s
Ross Lyons. son LOT the late Rev 8.
r. Lyons, returned to Richmond today
to awaft further orders from the inter-
national association which will prob.
ably make arrangements for him to
take passage again for the Turkish
port some time next month.
Because the officers and members
of the crew were unable to speak Eng
lish, Lyons said it was impossible for
him to learn the exact cause of the
blaze. He said, however, that he knew
quantities OF oiled waste and other
material which would ignite freely had
been found scattered in all parts of
the vessel. Passengers of first class
never at any time had any fear for
their lives, he said, feeling that if the
fire got beyond control the number OF
lifeboats was adequate to insure their
safety. +

Panic broke out among the steerage
passengers, however, most OF whom
were foreigners. They fought desper-
ately to get off the vessel and it was
only with the greatest difficulty that
the officers were able to calm them.
Women and children laughed and
joked about the vessel being on fire."
declared Mr.. Lyons.
It was, however, only about half an
hour after Mr.. Lyons and his fellow
passengers had been transferred to
the Tuscania which came to thA res,
cue that the fire broke through to the
deck of the Athinai The efficient
manner in which the English crew Of
the Tuscania handled the situation
was the subject of praise by Mr.. Ly-
ons.
Mr.. Lyons was forced to leave prac-
tically all his clothing on the Athinai.
He had the assurance, however. of Mr..
Dodge, one of the officials of the steam
ship company, that he would be fully
reimbursed for his loss. The company
also paid his fare to Richmond, he
told friends.
Mr.. Lyons obtained many valuable
pictures of the burning ship and of
the transfer of passengers which he
said he sold to the International News
Service, which supplies The Palladium
with its pictures.

SHOW new ANTAG0NISM

NEW YORK, Sept. 23.-Opposition
to the proposed war loan to the allies

negotiations may have to be re-opened

The three chief obstacles were the

of the British government as revealed
in the budget speech of Reginald Nc
Kenna, British chancellor of the ex-
chequer. ..-- --. --
2. Opposition to Russia's participa-

packers by England.
