FILES NOT GUILTY PLEA
TO CHARGE OF CONTEMPT

Not guilty was the answer filed today
by Attorney Michael w. Sullivan,
against whom a contempt rule was is
sued on a charge that he had attempt
ed to tamper with the grand jury
which had under consideration an alle-
cation of embezzlement against him.
Attorneys D. w. Baker and J. C.
Sheehy, for the accused lawyer, will
contend at a hearing on the charge. the
date of which is to be fixed, that it
is no violation of law or contempt Of
court or other offense in law for an
accused person to seek hearing be-
fore the grand jury. This is all Mr..
Sullivan did, his lawyers claim.
The charge on which the rule is
based was that Mr.. Sullivan visited the
apartments of Samuel G. Eberly, fore
man of the grand jury, and the busi-
ness house of Edmund X. Fox, q men,
ber of the grand jury. and attempted
to explain his side Of the charges made
against him and asked that his wit
nesses be heard before the grand jury
took action.
No answer was filed by Attorney
Creed NJ. Fulton, who was also cited
for alleged contempt Of court. It is
understood Attorney Wilton J. Lambert
will appear for Mr.. Fulton and that
because of Mr.. Lambert's absence from
the city the matter will be deferred by
United States Attorney Laskey.
Hearing on the rules will probably
await the answer of Mr.. Fulton.

IMPROVEMENT ORDERED
IN HERD|C LINE SERVICE
Public Utilities Commission Serves
Notice on Metropolitan
Coach Company.
Forfeiture of Franchise Alternative
of Compliance Within Three
Months Time.

Steps looking toward the material
improvement of service, equipment.
etc, of the herdic coaches operated by
the Metropolitan Coach Company by
April / or the forfeiture of the COM
panys franchise to operate over the
streets of Washington were taken by
the public utilities commission today.
when a letter couched in unmistakable
language was sent by the commission
to the officials of the company.
In the letter, which was dispatched
by special messenger this morning, de-
mand is made that the company put its
cars in thorough repair. place them in
clean and sanitary condition. and
place a sufficient number of cars in
operation to maintain schedules. Fail
ure to do this, the letter stated, is to be
followed by the imposition of penalties
thorizing the use of the streets by the
Metropolitan Coach Company.
Letter of the Commission.
The letter sent by the public utilities
commission says:
"In connection with the order of the
commission, No. 13S, authorizing short
er service by your company than has been
heretofore maintained. ! am instructed by
the commission to call your attention to
the fact that a number of complaints of
the service furnished have been received
and upon investigation it has been found
Il. That sufficient coaches are not
operated to make the schedules.
"2. That the regular headway OF
coaches is not maintained.
''3. That the windows of the coaches
are not kept clean.
Il. That the coaches are not main
tanned in good repair.
"5. That detective and noisy tires are
used.
sc. That the coaches are not satisfac-
torily lighted.
az. That drivers are careless in run
ming coaches.
IS. That in general the company is
managed in a haphaZard and indiffer-
ent manner, and on the whole quite
regardless of the interests of the peo-
pie whom it is intended to serve.
THE act of Congress of August "a
1912, specifically provides that the
service and facilities of your line shall
be in all respects adequate The con-
ditions set forth above show that the
service now rendered is neither ade-
quate nor satisfactory. and the COM

la peace conference.
Gen. Wotherspoon. former chief of
staff of the United States Army, tells
armies average more than five field
guns for each 1000 men-so our 634
guns would only equip modest little
army of $4,000. To be sure, we have
appropriated for 226 more guns, but
they are not ready.
"In the testimony before the fortif1-
cation committee in 1913 it appeared
that Russia has 5000 field guns. FRANCE
$500 and Germany about 1000. 1t Will
take us quite a while to raise our mod
est 634 to those figures if the infor-
nation given US by the War Depart
ment is correct. Last session Cen
Wood testified that the entire capacity
of this country working night and
day is 500 guns in a year.
Four Days Ammunition.
after all what good would the guns
be without ammunition? The Secretary
of War expects us to have $4,000
rounds of artillery ammunition ready
by July 1. l hope he is right! 1t is
worth remembering that in single
battle of the Japanese war, Russia
shot away nearly half that amount.
Gen. Wood tells us that 200 rounds of
ammunition day is a fair expenditure
for gun under battle conditions, so
you see that our 6s4 guns can next
July be provided with just about four
days ammunition apiece If Secretary
Garrson's hopes are fulfilled.
Last year the ordnance department
estimated that the government arse
nails. running night and day with three
shifts. can turn out 1,600 rounds of
artillery ammunition daily. In other
words, eight field guns can shoot away
ammunition just as fast as Uncle Sam
can make it. Private manufacturers
cannot help the situation, for three or
four months after they get their
orders, says Gen. Wood. Listen to this
sentence from the generals evidence:
The best estimates indicate that at
the end of the first six months not to
exceed 350.000 rounds could be pro-
cured from all sources, including the
government plant
Think of that-35O, 900 rounds to be
made in half a year. Why Russia shot
away 100000 rounds in the nine days
battle of Mukden alone"

this being. in the opinion of the COM
mission. a reasonable time for the pur-
pose. If at tho expiration of that time
the service and facilities are still un-
satisfactory the commission will be
compelled to take such steps as the
act above referred to contemplates"
The act of Congress referred to stip-
ulates that failure of the Metropolitan
Coach Company to furnish adequate
service and facilities, and to main
tain its coaches in proper condition or
its refusal to comply with just and
proper orders and regulations issued
by the public utilities commission may
be penalized by forfeiture of the COM
pany's franchise. or, in the words of
the act, shall make II unlawful for il
the company to operate its vehicles
over it's routes"
Officials of the coach company today
declined to discuss the order of the
commission or to say what the COM
panys course is likely to be.

ten mountain, about five miles from
here.
