no body was seen, the police saw. for
they point out that the men may have
been frightened away by Powers or the
negro.
What the police are trying to connect
with this happening is information which
the State Anatomical Board, of this citv
furnished today. Coroner McGlathery. of
Norristown, was asked by a member of
the board IL he had instructed that a
BODY be delivered into the custody OF
the board. He replied in the negative.
The member then told him that a woman
had asked over the telephone for direo
tions as to now to deliver a body to the
board, saying that the Coroner had d.
rected her to DO SO. The Coronsr uoti-
fed the police.
The mysteries woman, the police say
they were Informed, gave her address as
Norristown, but refused to give her name
to the State Anatomical Board.
CHECKING UP ON DEATHS.
Coroner McGlatkery and the police are
checking up on all deaths that have oe-
CURED within the last "a hours. and the
disposition of the bodies. BY this method
they hope to run on a clue which will
show the way to a solution of the case.

ALLUDED TO IN HEARING
Philadelphia Electric Attorney
Says Company's Security
Safeguards City

The bonding company OF which Thomas
r. smith. Republican Organization candi-
date for Mayor Of Philadelphia, is the
head, was brought Indirectly into the
argument between the Philadelphia Elec-
trio Company and william Draper Lewis,
counsel for the complainsnts against the
rates and services Of the company, be-
fore the Public Service Commission at
Harrisburg today.
Mr.. Lewis appeared before the Commits
sion at this time to ask that a man be
named 70 chesk up the inventory and the
appraisal OF property now being made by
the company. He also asked that an
early date be set for a hearing in the
public lighting complaint and that the
original case be concluded as soon as
possible. A...
Fred w. Fleitz, counsel for the Electric
Company, I'm opposing the motion OF Mr..
Lewis. pointed out that there is no cause
for undue haste as the city is amply
protected by bond in the matter.
Mr.. Lewis then made the assertion that
caused those familiar with conditions to
prick up their ears. He said that while
he believed the bond would provide the
protection necessary. he was not certain
that those who represent the bond will
not raise the objection that the con-
tract has expired II a claim should ever
be made for payment. o.
No names were mentioned. but nearly
everybody in attendance knew that
Thomas p. Smith, former commissioner
and Republican candidate for Mayor of
Philadelphia, who was in the bonding
business at the time the contract was
had handled the bond, which
is in the sum of $4,000. The bonding
companies Smith then represented are
said to be on IL.
Mr.. Lewis made no direct reference 20
Mr.. Smith and the incident passed.

CASE GOES TO JURY.
Counsel for the Defense Recall Days
 of Dewey at Manilla..

New York, Dec 2-The case of the four officials of the Hamburg -Ameri- can Line on trial for conspiracy to de- ceive and defraud the United States government, was given to the jury at 2:4O D. m. today.
 Counsel for the defense went back, in his summing up today, to the days of Dewey at Manila for what he termed parallel and a vindication of the acts of his clients in sending coal and supplies from American ports to the German fleet in the South Atlantic in the early days of the European war.
 "Dewey's ships," said MT. Rand, the defendants counsel, needed coal and supplies during that blockade. How did they get them? Why, it is no secret. An American firm at the Brit ish port of Hong Kong-Jackson & Evans, I think it was-loaded the coal and supplies and provisions on British steamers and cleared those steamers for the Chinese port of Macao. And for Macao these ships sailed out of Hong Kong. Their manifests made no mention of supplies. The mani fests said these steamers were loaded with scrap iron.
