LOAN COMPROMISE
ST|RS Faction WAR
Administration Grants 1000,
600 and Gains 81 900, 900 for
"PaIace of Justice"
MAYOR ANSWERS GAFFNEY

Administration and Ware councilmei
united in harmony to pass $33, :
100000 general improvement loan bill
at yesterdays special session of Coun-
Gil.
Promptly the fires of factionalism
burst up in greater flames than at any
time since the Inauguration of Mayor
Moore. was q day of feverish activity
by councilmen, the Mayor and politica,
leaders. headed by Thomas W. Gun
ningham, president OF the Republican
Alliapce--a day in which the inHuenc,
OF President Judge Brown. Of the Mu-
nicipal Court. was most marked.
The loan bill was finally made up so
as to appease the faction headed by
Councilmen Hall and Gaffney. The so :
called Ware members were conciliated
by the addition of $4,000, 900 to the
bill. This sum was earmarked as fol-
lows: Five hundred thouSanI dollars
for the Bigler and Packes streets sewer
as demanded by Gaffney, $500, 900 for
Fairgrounds in the congested section of
the city as demanded by Hall, and an
additional 81 900, 900 for the improve
ment and extension of the water supply.
Administration Gains
The administration, for its part
forced the approval of the 81 200, ,OOC
for the City Hall annex which the Ware
men wanted to strike out and $4OO, ,OOC
OF the general fund for sewers was ap
portioned to the Rock Run sewer In
special recognition of President Veg
lein, Of Council, and Councilman yor
Tagen.
When the loan bill went into confer
ence yesterday il totaled $31 ,OOO, 600.
The concessions to the Ware men Jumped
the total to $33 100000 Mayor Moore
quickly signed the bill when It was
brought to him about Z O'Clock last
night.
Commenting On the passage of the
loan bill, Senator Ware said:
II am very glad that harmony pre-
vailed in City Council yesterday, ant
that as a result loan bill was passed
which provides for the best interests oI
oil the people. The improvements con-
templated by the bill are needed and
its passage was the right thing.
Personally, l had nothing to do
with the framing of this legislation. but
/ am glad that the members worked
out such satisfactory program"
In political circles the senator's state
ment was interpreted as meaning that
the Ware forces will work for the ap-
proval Of the loan bill by the people in
the November election. As administra :
tion men also will be in favor of it, it
Is considered its adoption by the peopl,,
Is assured.
The final passage Of the bill in Coun q.
Gil wds the signal for the opening of q
bitter attack on the Mayor by Coun-
ciimen Gaffney. Hall. Hetzell and
others. When the Mayor signed the bill
he replied that his act of signing was
the best answer to the attacks.
~ have not compromised. No agree
mcnt has been made by me with the
Ware men. Gaffney's attack was sim
ply the feeble gasp of the dying. The

The Countess Of Portsmouth, visit
ing Philadelphia today, declared she is
thoroughly charmed with American
womanhood. THE American girl Is
wonderful" she said, while describing
her visit to this country, and her OBJ
servations of the people of America.
The countess Is member of the
world board of the Young Woman's
Christian Association. That organi-
zation, she said, will be of potent effect
in bringing more Christianity into the
hearts of young women. 1t is unde-
niably true girls became too free in
manner during the war, she said, but
they are sound at heart, and time will
bring its own cure.
The wedding of her nephew, Gerald
Wallop. to Miss Mary Post, on the
Post estate on Long Island. is what
brought the countess to this country.
While here she toured and discussed
Y. w. G. A. work with the Y. w. c. A.
