Anyway, we all went over to see
AL Fried's show at Albaugh's Theater
in Baltimore. Al Fried seems a pretty
good guy. For one thing. when Joe
Freeman told him we were WASH
ington expert" Al smiled just as
neat as you please, stuck out limp
fin, and wished us through the gate.
Now, you know, that was sort of good
of him. Most guys we've met in the
Baltimore fight line usually wanted
to sell us a tin watch or something
just as If an expert" ever bought
anything.
Well. we got in. treading on Hip
Dugan's heels down the aisle toward
the entrance to the boxes and the
stage. There Joe Freeman, who
knows everybody over there, hailed
the guard in some foreign tongue, and
DALI Pratt and company paraded
through TO the stage and then down
into the bowels of the theater. We
were going down to see joey Schwartz
dress for the act.
We Hear Of Moore.
While Freeman was painting his
boxers face, cndeavoring to conceal
a nasty cut received in training, we
heard that Pal Moore had arrived.
Being n bit noscy, VIC ambled along
into his room with Hip" DuGan. And
what do you think? There. chatting
with Moore and his manager, Tommy
Walsh, was walter $. Duggan, per-

Mayor Fights Examination

Mayor Hylan. through his attorney
Edmund L. Mooney, asked Justice Plat
zek in the Supreme Court yesterday to
vacate the order obtained by DR.. Will
lam j. Schieffelin, president of the
Sitlzens Union, to examine the Mavor
before trial of the action for libel
brought against him by DR.. SchietTelin
Mr. Mooney contended that the infor-
nation sought WAS not material and
that 1t was of character to suppor.
the case Of the plaintiff.
Although no demurrer was made 70
the complaint of DR.. Schierelin. said
Mr. Mooney, he was justified in raising
the issue now that the statements made
by Mayor Hylan in the letter that
caused the suit regarding the sale of
narcotics were directed not AGAINST Dr

corporation, w. J. Schietfelin & Co

Public School Janitors
Assured Wage Increase
Board of Education Also Favor
able to Bi-Montl1ly Payment
for All Teachers

New York City's $50 public school
Janltors were assured Of an increase in
their pay amounting to an average of
$500 year at a meeting Of the Board
of Education last night. The board,
meeting as a committee Of the whole,
adopted resolution offered by George
j. Ryan recommending to the Board
of Estimate and Apportionment 25
per cent raise for the men. Mr. Ryan
said the Mayor and the Board Of Esti-
mate were favorable to the increase
The board also looked favorably upon
plan offered by Mr.. Ryan to pay the
teachers and auditing staff of the cdu-
cational system Of the city twice a
month, and in cash, instead of once a
month and by check, as is now done.
The plan was not adopted, as it was
deemed advisable to have Mr.. RYAN
investigate the extent Of expansion
which would be occasioned in the au-
ditor's department by the bi-monthly
preparation Of pay rolls.
The proposition is expected to be af
firmed at the meeting of the board to-
morrow. Final action rests with the
board OF Estimate and Apportionment.
The lncrease recommended for the
Janitors represents an addition to the
pay Of city employees Of $494 900 a year.
Mr.. Ryan did not include in his resolu-
ton recommendation for a similar in
crease for twenty-three elevator men.
but 1T was Incorporated in the resolu-
ton. Increased pay for the elevator
men adds $4,000 to the total increase
for the janitors

Philippine Bank Enjoined
Court Forbies Sending Gables
as Government Messages

Judge Julius VI. Mayer, in the Fed
eral District Court, yesterday handed
down decree enjoining the Philippine
National Bank from sending cable
grams over the cabls of the CONNER
cial Pacific Gable Company as govern
ment messages. In this manner the
bank had been enjoying the privilege
Of half toll rates and avoided the pay
ment of the government tax
The decision was made in q suit in
equity involving 100000 in cable tolls,
brought by the cable company. In an
swering the complaint the defendant
bank. which has it's Offices at Manila
and a branch office here, asserted that
it was q part OF the United States gov
ernment and, therefore, could send mes
sages through the Bureau Of Insular
Affairs Of the govrnment as an inter
mediary at half rates. with precedence
as to submission. Between 50 and 90
per cent of the capital stock OF the
bank IA owned by the Philippine gov
crnment and that fact brought forth
the claim that this relationship made
the bank part of this government.
Judge Mayer in his opinion said that
upon the present pleading am of the
opinion that the defenses are INSULT
cient in law, and plaintiff may have an
appropriate decree"

Lodge Claims Communion
Win Dead Is Proved
Advises All Who Would Talk With Their Departed
to Lead Peaceful, Quiet Life and to Consult
Mediums, but To Be Sure to Avoid False Ones

travelling further into the specula-
tive realms of the unknown than he
has ventured since arriving in Amer
lea, Sir Oliver Lodge discussed the
evidence for survival in an address in
Carnegie Hall last night. He ex-
pressed the firm conviction that life
continues after death and said he had
definite proof that communication can
be established with the dead. One
half Of his time he devoted to illus
tration, quoting what he said we're
messages from the other side of the
veil, particularly those received from
ms friend and co-worker, Myers, who
died in 1901.
For the first time since Sir Oliver
has addressed himself to New York
auoiences skeptlcism was apparent as
he discarded his easy PROFESSIONAL style
and proceeded in Somewhat ierkv
Fashion to give what he termed evi-
dences of survival. They were in no
WISE different from the illustrations
frequently given by less eminent per
sons than the great English scientist.
Sympathetic Toward Skeptic
"fhe momentous question of whether
man survives bodily death viii be de-
termlned within a few years. believe
said Sir Oliver. "Surely the answer
Is Of vital significance to every one of
US. If human life terminates at death.
there are many problems incapable of
solution. If life goes on and we pre-
serve our individuality and character,
then there is hope Of solving prolems
which otherwise would be unsolvable
The answer to the question has really
been given by religions of all kinds |
The solution has been arrived at by
faith and inspiration But am one
of those inferior beings who have TO
have a cold-blooded scientific basis for
my convictions. Future existence lies (
IN the unseen.
"There is no argument against the
reality of anything that we can per-
ceive But Lam here to say that for !
myself have proof that the discarnate /
are still existing. However. I put this /
before you in the guise Of evidence, as
some of you may not think it amounts
TO proof"
Sir oliver admitted that he felt
rather sympathetic toward the skeptic
In the '70s he had been an out -and-o
skeptic himself, he said. But when the
,hance came 10 him to study tclopathy
ne seized the opportunity, and after
several months inquiry was convinced
