ence, took a penknife from his pocket
and loosened the screws on the jewelry
case.
Wilson resisted arrest, struggling with
the detectives for several minutes. He
succeeded in wrestling the revolver
from Basine and pointed it to his head.
The detectives quickly seized 1t, how
ever. and slipped a pair of handcuffs over
Wilson'S wrists.
The suitcases found at his home con-
tanned number of watches and other
pieces of jewelry, silk shirts and several
fine hats. 1t is believed that all of this
came from the Berg store.

ANTI-TRANSTT BRIEF
TO BE FILED SATURDAY
Attorney in Taxpayers Suit
will Oppose Taylor Pro-
gram Before Commission

Ruby r. Vale, counsel for David r.
Dallam in the taxpayers suit TO hold up
the Taylor program OF rapid transit, to-
day completed the brief which he will
file with the Public Service Commission
In an effort TO show that certificate OF
public convenience should not be granted
for the construction Of the Broad street
subway and the Frankford elevated lines.
The brief will be sent 60 the printer on
Thursday or Friday, after 1t has been
transcribed in Mr.. Wales office and on
Saturday it will he forwarded to the COM
mission at Harrisburg.
Under the ruling of Commissioner
Pennypacker at the public transit hear
ing In Harrisburg on July 26, Mr.. Vale
was given 10 days to file his brief from
tho time City Solicitor Ryan served him
with the brief filed on behalf OF the city
Mr.. Ryan's brief was forwarded to the
commission on August 3, but Mr. Vale
was not served with copy until August
4, which gives him until Saturday to an
swer the city's arguments before the COM
mission.
As Director Taylor has advertised that
bids for the construction work on the
Broad street subway and the Frankford
elevated lines will be opened on Monday,
August 16, the commission will have only
two days to consider the points in Mr.
Wales brief and to give its decision.
MIR. Vale, in his brief, virtually ignores
all questions Of legality and constitution
ality, which he raised in the preliminary
hearing before Judge Sulzberger, since
Commissioner PennypaclSer stated at the
hearing that the commission was not cer-
tain of its prerogative to rule on legal
questions. Virtually the whole of Mr..
Wales argument is designed to show that
the proposed lines are neither necessary
nor proper for the service. accommoda-
tion, convenience and safety of the pub
lie of Philadelphia.
