GOVERNMENT ACTS
IN TICKET SCANDAL;
CHECK ON GOUGERS
Theatres Required by Law to
Retain Ticket Stubs as a
War Fax Record.
WARNING OUT TO-DAY.
Enforcement Will Halt Greedy

By Sophie Irene Loeb.

y Tho Internal Revenue Department
NJ the United States Treasury has
taken cognizanco Of the theatre ticket
scandal in New York City. While the
department has no statute right to
regulate the prices beyond checking
UP the prices charged to ascertain
II the Federal Revenue Laws have been
violated by spectators aud theatres,
tho Government shares in every cX-
cess in prices charged beyond the
price on the face Of tho ticket, and
it requires that the actual prices paid
10 spectators shall be written on tho
back Of every ticket sold together
with the name OF the seller. How far
this law has been observed will be
determined by the Investigation OF
the revenue officers.
A notice will be sent out to all thea
tres to-day requiring them to retain
all stubs Of tickets presented. These
stubs should carry the price above
the box office price, when sold by the
spectators, and should serve to check
UP the returns Of the SPECTATORS.
The theatres will also be required to
furnish the number OF tickets sold by
each 10 spectators. This return
will show how the theatres peddle
out their seats.

ing were petitions for the denomination
Of Alderman Fred Pabst of the third
ward. Alderman Pabst has served eff
fciently as member and chairman of
the finance committee of the council

most valuable members of the body.
He some time ago announced that he
probably would not stand for re-
election, but his friends have persuad
ed him to seek return to office.
The fight for the nomination of an
alderman in the eighth ward was
further complicated this morning when
petitions were taken out for the nomin-
alton of Charles G. Safranski. The lat
est candidate is one of the best known
of the young men Of the ward. He was
born in the ward and has lived there
all his life.
Other petitions for the day included
TIE petitions Of Charles A. Pofahl for
school commissioner in the third ward
and John S. Scholey for constable in

Kenosha is desperately interested in
a fair solution of the immigration prob
lem. Labor is necessary to keep great
industries in Kenosha in operation and
if that labor can not be secured in this
country it must come from some other
country. The restricters of immigra-
tion have not as yet shown any will
ingness to provide some other means
for meeting the labor shortage.

Found Revolver in a Drawer.

Without knowledge OF their grand
parents, they had gone UP into one of
the bedrooms to play and they found
revolver belonging to the chief in one
of the drawers Of dresser. It was
thought that the drawer was out Of
reach of the children. Mrs. O'Hare
heard the children laughing and talk
ing i'm the room and minute later she
heard the shot. She went upstairs to
find the little girl on the floor with the
wound in the shoulder.
81 was just fooling and wanted to
see how it worked, y little Owen sobbed
out as he watched the surgeons seek
ing to prolong the life of his little
sister. The little boy stood near the
door as the surgeons worked, refusing
to be comforted and sobbed as if his
heart would break.
Relatipes Are Grief Stricken.
The distressing accident caused great
sorrow in the community. Mr.. and
Mrs. Rafferty,, parents of the little
children, and Chief O'Hare and his
wife were grief stricken. The revolver
was a 32-calibre revolver which the
chief had kept at his home for em-
Urgency uses and it had been put away
in the drawer in manner which was
thought would make it impossible for
anyone save the chief to find it. It
is thought that the children were rum
maging through the drawer when they
found the revolver. asa

Engineer Baker Fears City
May Not Be Able to Meet
It's Part of Contract for
Garbage Reduction.
CITES FIGURES IN CITIES
Holds that Before the City Can Go
Ahead with Any Contract It Must
Have the Sanction Of the Wiscon-
sin State Board of Health.

State Sanitary Engineer C. M. Baker
sounds note of warning to the off,
gals OF Kenosha in letter received by
Mayor John G. Joachim this morning
In which he discussed the proposed
contract between the city and the
American Bi-Products and Chemical
Co., of Detroit, for the reduction OF
the garbage. Engineer Baker does not
IN any way recede from his former po-
s1t1on in which he declared that he
believed the contract an excellent con
tract for the city, but he questions the
ability of the city to meet some of the
provisions of it. He declares that he
is making further Investigations and
that he will send some other communi-
cation to the city before final action
ON the contract must be taken.
Questions Ten-Ton Provision.
The state engineer questions the
ability Of the city to live up Ito the
provision Of the contract which would
provide that the city furnish ten tons
of garbage daily to the reduction plant.
He gives figures from both Milwaukee
and Madison, where the cities are col
Letting practically all of, the garbage
and these show that in the past wear
the amount of garbage collected for
each 10000 of population ran far be-
low the lotion mark. The highest
monthly average for 10000 population
was only little over tons The
Detroit company has agreed with the
committee of the council to operate
with an assurance of 8 tons of garbage
daily. The local committee has. closely
checked up conditions and its opinion
is that with a general collection the
o-ton markscan be reached in Kenosha
The sanitary engineer shows that
there has been some trouble in the
separation Of the garbage in these 9TH
er cities but he does not hold that this
is a serious matter.
State Must Sanction Plan.
Engineer Baker calls the attention Of
the mayor to the provisions of the state
law which provides that before any
contract is entered into by the city it
must be submitted to the state board
OF health, The statements which have
already been made would indicate that
the state board will give its immediate
sanction to the contract which has been
proposed for the city Of Kenosha but
the securing of this sanction may in a
manner hold up the plans for putting
the contract into operation.
