Amos Pinchot. one OF the most pa

candidate for Mayor in letter which
Mr.. Hllquits campaign committee
made public last night.
The trouble with Mayor Mitchell. for
whom Mr.. Pinchot voted four years

Mayor MltcheIS attacks saturday on
District Attorney Swami and Samuel
Untermyer were answered in state
ments from both of these men yester-
day. The District Attorney COM
planned that the Mayor had waited "as
usual" until ii o'clock Saturday night
to make the attack upon him.
There were charges lodged against
certain clerks in the License Bureau
presided over by one of Mr.. Mitchel's
appointees. The cases were referred
by me TO my then assistant, William
Dean Embree, who had been IN this
office under Jerome, Whitman and
Perkins, and is now the head OF the
Volunteer Defenders, established By
Mr.. Rockefeller. Mr.. Embree reported
10 me that under People against Jaffe,
1876 New York Court of Appeals re-
ports, page 49, there was grave doubt
as matter of law whether there was
sufficient evidence, in addition to the
evidence of the city's paid accomplices'
TO satisfy the law in some OF the cases
"The other charge, of accepting petty
graft, if true, was a crime, and is now
pending on the court calendar, and will
be tried as soon as reached in order,

Mr.. Untermyer devotes his statement

"G) that was or am interested, and
implies that ! virtually control the
Yiddish newspaper 'Warheit; ~ that
it is or has been disloyal in its utter
ances. and (3) implication that | am

goes on:
"All this in face of the facts.
THAT ! have never seen copy
of the 'Warheit' and know nothing OF

I have learned in the last two weeks by
inquiry, and, unfortunately, could not
read the paper if saw il.
"2-That ] have never, directly or
indirectly, owned a dollar of interest
in the paper in any form, and have no
idea even of where its Office is located.
"3-From all can learn, the disloy-
altv of the 'Warheit' consists in it,
support Of Judge Hylan in this cart-
paign and it's opposition to Mr. Hillquit
and Mr.. Mitchell.
"4-Mayor Mitchell is we'll aware Of
nv loyalty to the Administration and
it's war policies, and that it is because
Of his treachery to President Wilson in
1915 and of his land deals and the eX-
travagance. inefficiency and worse Of
his administration that | am opposing

FOR reelection have had the tax az

properties reduced since the Mayor
took office. In statement issued in
Hylan's name yesterday from Demo-

reductions are cited, although no at
tempt is made TO discriminate between
those made directly by the Board OF
Tax Commissioners and those which
resulted from court proceedings. Nor

tiles became evident. The fact that
the patrol boats were operating with
greater vigilance about these Islands
gave the first clue that the Germans
had successfully extended their wal
operations to the Pacific. Steps were
taken Immediately which, ii is believ,
ed, would lead to discovery OF the
raiders, II they ventured near the
coast OF any of the Hawaiian islands
Fear that the raiders may be oper
atinS a steamer which they are trying
to keep secret from all coming in con,
tact with them is partly based on the
fact that all the small vessels destroy
ed have been coal carriers.
Coal cargo would be of no value to
the raiders so long as their operations
were confined to a sailing vessel,

all that survivors of the three destroy
