Liquor Inquiry
Involves New
Lambs Member
Clubman, Not Mentioned
AS Yet in Investigation,
Said to Have Brought in
Drinks for Nc Craw
No Change in Slavin
Wounds Made in Tongue
by Teeth, Not Paralysis,
Causes Lack of Speech

After a conference between counsel
for John J. McGraw and Prohibition
Supervisor Shevlin it was intimated
yesterday that Mr.. McGraw's lawyers
had asserted the liquor consumed at
the Lambs on the night when John
c. Slavin was seriously injured was
purchased by another member and
brought in.
Mr.. Shevln said he had no statement
to make, and William J. Fallon, Nc
Graw's counsel, likewise refused to
talk.
1t was admitted, however. that pro-
hibition agents will continue their in
vestigation of the alleged sale of liquor
at the Lambs.
McGraw Has No Complaint
McGraw yesterday assured news
papermen that he had no complaint to
make against the club or any one con-
nected with the affair which led to the
injury of John c. Siavin, now in ST.
Luke's Hospital.
Physicians at ST. Luke's Hospital
said last night that John C. Slavin. the
actor who was picked up in an I'M
concous condition in front of tho
apartment of John J. McGraw on the
morning of August 8. was very sick
man." and that his condition for the
last twelve hours had changed but
little.
Rumors that Slavin was dying were
denied at the hospital, although no Off
cial there would say that he was going
TO recover The injured actor is still
without the faculty of speech and the
only persons allowed in his room are
his wife and his son Raymond Slavin.
Teeth Penetrated Tongue
The report that Slavin had suffered
relapse we're said to be due to "pessi-
mistic hospital officials" who were I'M
acquainted with the case. At noon yes
terday Mr.. Siavins condition was re-
ported to be Slightly improved. His in
ability to talk is attributed to the fact
that his tongue was penetrated by his
teeth and not TO paralysis.
Late last night it was said at St.
Lukes Hospital that Mr.. Slavin was CAS-
we'll as could be expected
While an entirely new phase may be
placed on the McGraw Slavin-Lamb
situation in the event of the
death of the actor. there was consid-
cradle interest Yesterday in the con-
ference held between William ]. Fallon
and Eugene T. Niece, attorneys for
the manager of the Giants, and James
S. Shevlin, prohibition enforcement
officer in this district.

been opened and others closed, but they
are not on the main line of travel from
this city.
The Pennsylvania department issues
weekly notifications of the roads that
are being oiled. That would be a good
plan for the highway departments Of
other states to follow. Freshly oiled
roads are avoided because they are
considered dangerous and usually cause
damage to the finish Of the car.
Thus far no regulation has been
made by the police to prevent the park
ing of cars within safety zones. This
practice is an Inconvenience to motor
ISIS and causes an unnecessary con-
gestlon Of traffic
