BOILER USERS PROTEST
AGAINST PROPOSED LAW
Double Inspection by City and Under
writers Would Work
Hardship

Two hundred members of trade bodies of
Philadelphia men, representing the users Of
or the users themselves of over 1000 boilers.
this afternoon called upon Mayor Smith in
his office to protest against the passage
of the present boiler inspection bill which
is pending in the State Legislature. The
bill provides that the boilers of this city
be inspected by representatives of the city
yearly. Heretofore some of the boilers
have been inspected by city representatives,
but the greater part of the inspection has
been the work of the insurance companies.
whose reports are taken by the local de-
partment.
1t was asserted by these men that dual
inspection-one by the city and one by the
insurance companies-would work a hard
ship on the boiler owner inasmuch as it
would force him to cool his boilers double
the time for which he now suspends work
At present the owner of the boiler has to
shut down work from four to six days
while the Insurance company does its work.
Mayor Smith didn't seem to be much in
sympathy with the claim. He pointed out
that some arrangement between the manu-
facturer. the city inspector and the in
surance company could surely be made
whereby their work could be dovetailed and
thereby do away with the double loss of
tHne vi tne part OF tne manufacturers.
However. he fixed time when the men
could meet Director of Public Safety Will
son in his office and discuss their protest
with him. Meanwhile, a committee of the
compainants will go to Harrisburg and
have a hearing before the House judiciary
body
The bodies represented in the protest
today were the Bourse, Board of Trade
Manufacturers Club. Pennsylvania Manu-
facturers' Association Overs and Finish
ers Association Worsted Manufacturers
Association and the Textile Manufacturers
Association. William H. Brown was the
spokesman for the party, while Emil p. AL
brecht also. talked in behalf of the Phila-
delphia Bourse.

Miss Caroline Katzenstein, executive
secretary of the Pennsylvania Branch or
the National Woman's Party, hailed the
entrance of Russian women into politics as

women was one of the unhealthy signs
which. she said. were always apparent In
any country torn by revolution. She pre-
dcted that a reaction would set in which
would deprive the women of Russia OF the
ballot.
The suffrage movement" said Miss
when we learn of a victory In far-off land
we greet that victory as one more link In
the chain Of suffrage success.
THE giving of the right to vote to Rus
sia's women is one of the many signs of the
great democratic awakening Of the world.
II Is one Of the blessings which has come
out of this horrible war.
ITO bring the matter nearer home,
hope that the example set by Russia will
stimulate Congress when II convenes on
April 2, to make an effort to keep UP with
Russia. The fair treatment of the new
Government of Russia to her women should
make our statesmen do n lot of thinking.

to be placed on Allied food ships saved
hundreds Of vessels from destruction De-
tective Barth testified today in the trial of
oix alleged bomb plotters. The bombs he
said, were taken aboard many vessels, but
they were not properly made and failed to
explode.
Hundreds Of bombs. Barth said. were
found In the holds of vessels after they
reached France. The State Department
was notified. Barth said he had been as
signed to the case in January 1915. and
had worked continuously to get evidence
for q year and half.
Barth, who has traced down numerous
German intrigues, was not shaken by the
oross-examination from the prisoners six
lawyers.
CAUGHT BY CHANCE
A chance acquaintance in a waterfront
restaurant and bar, he said started him
on the real trail Of his prey. For a year
and four months he had been lodging about
the wharves in search of the men,
While drinking a glass Of beer he casu-
ally started a conversation with the man
next to him, he testified. II was one of
Won Klest's operatives The man informed
him, Barth said, that Won Kleist was try
Ing to get an Interview with Captain Won
rgel relative to the sale OF some bombs.
Barth lost no time in finding Won klest
in the back room of n saloon.
Il am a secret service operative under
Captain Won Igel," Barth said he told Won
kleist. "If you want any engagements
with him you must tell me fully your bus-
ness"
Won Kleist told i'm full details, Barth
said. and he went away. Later the arrests
were made after an investigation Of details
unfolded by Won Klest.
DRESSED TO PERFECTION"
The courtroom was crowded. mostly with
Germans. Two guards were stationed at
each door to keep out the crowds that were
refused admission. Owing to the serious
ness Of the case and its ramificatons Judge
Van Fleet would not permit persons to stand
In the rear.
The six prisoners glared with enraged
discomfort at the man in the witness chair
They were dvessed to perfection all wear
Ing black Prince Alberts and light spats.
As Barth testified that bomb outrages
along New York's water front had ceased.

q the men. a faint smile appeared on their
faces.
