HE SPEAKS AT DINNER R

Doubt that the Philadelphia Rapid
transit Company's property and gen.
era' assets are worth $500. .O0O. 900 as
claimed by the company's experts, was
expressed by Mayor Moore last night
IN an address before the CObbs Creek
PARKWAY Home Association at q dinner
in the Hotel Adelphia.
-, The Mayor. incidentally. criticized
Thomas Il. .Mitten, president Of the
company. as well as City Councilmen.
who he said were trying TO give the
trankford elevated line to the p. r. r.
without cent return for the first year.
After touching on the present contro.
versy between Mr.. Mitten and five in
sursent directors Of the company the
Mayor said the real cause of tho trouble
is due to the refusal Of Mr.. Mitten to
answer questions put by the directors.
Mayor Grows Sarcastic
The Mayor grew sarcastic at times in
describing Mr.. ..Miten. lie referred
10 him as super man." and added
mat he was n very smart man--vrry
able. But he reiterated that the city
hoped to prove that Il Scent fare was
all that was necessary for the L. X. T..
to pay dividends.
typewriter copy of his sncecb. lie
departed from tllat at times, particu-
larly in his reference to the e1pendi. L.
lures that he says Mr.. Mitten has re-
fused to explain.
