IS HELD FOR MURDER
Sculli0n Said to Have Given

NEW MOTIVE LOOMS NOW
Detectives Tell of Gun Play
Party Where Cline Danced
With Beauty.
NEW MOTIVE LOOMS NOW

The arrest of Charles Scullion
brother-in-law of George Cline, who
killed Jack Bergin, the moving pic
turs extra last Friday night in Edge
water, and the possibility that Ber-
gins love affair with Mrs. Cline was
added interest yesterday to this latest
movie sensation.
Scullion, who has made at least four
statements to Archibald G. Hart, pros
ccutor for Bergen county, New Jersey
none of which hold forth the same
version of just what happened. was
locked up charged with first degree
murder. He is only Fl years old, and
il was he, according to the majority
of the many stories of the murder
who handed Cline the revolver with
which Bergin was killed
AS for the possibility of the motive
becoming as diversified as the stories
of what happened in the Cline house.
Mr.. Hart merely says that the latest
reports from his investigators force
him to wonder why, IL Bergin's affair
with Mrs. Cline was the motive for the
shooting, Cline waited so long.
% This much | may tell YOU" said
Mr.. Hart, whatever the true motive
was, certainly il was aided and abetted
by desire to make a display OF bra
vado, the presence of q good audience
and the fact that Cline had repeatedly
been urged to do something"
May Ne other Arrests.
Scullion's arrest was not unexpected.
And although the prosecutor viii not
verify rumors that other arrests may be
made, IL win not be surprising II they
are. Young Scullion who. by the way
lived with the Clines and not next door
with his parents, was very nearly pros
trated by his arrest. He was locked up
In a cell far away from that occupied by
Cline. Even his sister, the murderer's
wife. was not permitted to see him.
II was no comfort TO him that Clines
lawyer. william NJ. Mackey, issued a
statement saying that the defense would
be based upon "the unwritten law. which
includes self-defense and Justifiable
homicide" which. according to the
statement, has been recognized In this
and other countries" All that Scullion
realized was that he had been subjected
to a mean cross examination by Mr.
Hart and that he had made a sorry mess
Of his attempts at consistency In his
versions OF the murder
One Of the most romantic sidelights
on the killing was reported TO Mr.. Hart
by the detectives. II Is real movie stuff.
Some time ago there was n party given
by an association Of assistant movie
directors and location men. Cline, being
prominent In the latter class, was notice
ably present. He danced several times
with a young woman who is celebrated
for her gentle beauty and her harsh
tongue.
Cline appeared 10 be enjoying himself.
None OF those who attended the affair
can recall that he looked worried until
along about the close OF the party. But
early In the evening, while dancing with
the bitter beauty. he was asked by her
What's worrying your
'Nothing's worrying me-" Cline re-
piled.
"Oh, thought there was"
What made you think so7"

YOU have to buy your vacation shoes.
Ha. ha! That's where the Fresh
Airs have the best of you. They not
only have their vacation given them,
but the shoes to enjoy them in as we'll.
That is to say, 3sI "Fresh Airs" do.
They're the lucky lads and lasses
who set out to spend their Fresh Air
fortnights in and about Binghamton,
N T., yesterday morning. They didn't
know about the shoes-~that's to be a
surprise for thembut they grinned
and giggled and hollered and yelled as
though they thought they were going
out to bring the world back in their
arms.
For about twenty-five years Bing-
hamtonians have been entertaining
crowds of Fresh Airs" annually With
out miss, but yesterdays was the
biggest of all their big parties. You
could have read that fact in the smiles
that wreathed the faces of Mr.. and
Mrs. George j. Michelbach, tho kind
folks who every year arouse the peo-
pie of Binghamton to sense of their
duty toward the youngsters of the New
York tenements.
They Love Children
Every year since The Tribune's cam
paign was inaugurated in Binghamton
these folks have carried on the work
of getting invitations for children.
have come to New York to escort the
party to Binghamton and at the end of
the fortnight have brought the girls
and boys safely to their homes. Why =?
Just because they love children.
And the shoes? Well, those are to
be the gift of George F. Johnson,
whose shoe factories are known wher-
ever shoes are worn. On one day dur
ing their stay the children are to be
to be the finest children's playground
in the world, and when the games are
all played and the lunch is all Seaten
they are to be asked to pick out the
pairs of shoes they like best from the
Johnson stock rooms.
The Binghamton party went out over
the Erie in six special coaches. They
must have been, as one lad said, "some
class" for Assistant General Passenger
Agent Andrews was on hand to super
intend the arrangement for their de-
parture in person, and the whole sta

300 Go to Cortland
But Binghamton wasn't the only party
of "Fresh Airs" that went out yester-
day. You'd have known that if you'd
been in Hoboken at the Lackawanna
terminal. About three hundred boys and
girls assembled there yesterday morn
ing at 8 o'clock to start out for Cort-
land, N. Y. They started, too. and
last night slept in 800 of Cortland
best homes.
The Cortland kiddies are the guests

Solve Traction Muddle

WASHINGTON, Aug. 1.--Glenn E.
Plumb, counsel for the sixteen larger
| railroad organizations and author of
the celebrated Plumb Plan" of rail
road operation and ownership, died to-
night. Death was due to an affection
Of the heart, from which he had suf-
| fered for several months.
Mr.. Plumb's failing health caused
him to cease work with railroad organ
izations last spring, and at the time
physicians were of the opinion that his
recovery was doubtful. He had his left
leg amputated at Washington in May,
and it was said that the amputatlon
was necessary as a result of poor cir
culation of the blood resulting from
gangrene.
Mr.. Plumb was ffty-six years old and
was native of Clay, Iowa. He was
graduated from Oberlin College, where
he received the degree of doctor of
philosophy in 1891. He attended law
school at Harvard for year and later
was graduated from the law school of
the rudiments of railroad law during
five years service with a Chicago law
firm, and in 1900 was retained as at
torney for the General Railways Com
pany of Chicago. He later served as
receiver for the company and when it
was finally turned over to the con-
solidated traction enterprise that took
over all the city's traction properties
he was in complete charge of the prop
erty of the General Railways Company.
In 1905 Mr.. Plumb was retained as
special attorney and counsel for the
city of Chicago by Mayor Edward F
Dunno, in the latter's attempt to un-
tangle the city's traction affairs. Mr..
| Of Cook County and the corporation
counsel in negotiations between the
elevated and surface lines in Chicago.
His theory of valuations attracted the
attention of the railway brotherhoods,
| and in 1917 he was retained by the four
big brotherhoods affiliated with the
American Federation of Labor to repre-
sent them in valuation proceedings be-
tore the Interstate CONNER Commits
sion under the railway valuation act.
he became counsel for the ten other
railroad labor organizations in the
spring of 1919.
The Plumb Plan, devised by Mr..
Plumb, was adopted by the railroad
employees organization for the reor-
ganization of the railroads and placing
in control a commission of fifteen, one
third of the number to be railroad en-
ployees. The plan also provided that
the employees share each year in a
certain portion of the profits.
MIR. Plumb was twice married His
first wife was Grace E. Clark, Of Chi
cago. She died in 1899, four years
after their marriage. In 1907 he mar
ried Marie Coyle, of Chicago.
