Circumvent Court Order
Petition Alleges "Straw Men
in Group Seeking Railroad
Coal Properties

PHILADELPHIA, July 31.-George F.
Baker jr, vice-president of the First
National Bank of New York, and other
prominent fnanciers, at hearing in
the United States District Court to-
day were charged with using powerful
influence to circumvent the Federal
court order for the dissolution of the
Central Railroad of New Jersey and
the Lehigh and Wilkes-Barre Coal
Company. A further charge was made
that there were "straw men" in the
Jackson E. Reynolds syndicate of New
York, the organization that is seeking
to purchase the coal stock.
After the dissolution order for the
railroad and the coal company had been
issued in the Federal court here, bids
were received by the railroad company
for purchase of the coal company's s
stock. The stock was voted to the
Reynolds group.
Isaac T. and Mary Starr, minority
stockholders in the Jersey Central, in
protesting the sale, filed a petition to-
day naming MI. Baker and several
prominent railroad officials, lawyers
and bankers all being members of the
Reynolds group for the purpose of ac-
curing the stock of the Lehigh &
Wilkes Barre Coal Company, so that
it could remain under the dictation of
the jersey Central

Baseball Fan Tells
Court of Assault
Declares Patrolman Beat Him
After His Shoe Brushed
Officers Trousers

James A. S. Carpenter, an advertis-
Ing man, whose complaint that Patrol
man Frank ]. Neidho.mer had beaten
him at the Polo Grounds on August s,
1921, resulted ir Neidheimer's indict-
ment or charge Of assault, testified
against the former policeman yester-
day before Judge Robert S. Johnston,
in General Sessions.
He said that in changing his seat his
foot had brushed the trousers of Neid-
heimer, who was in plain clothes.
Carpenter said he had apologized and
the detective had threatened to smash
him if it happened again.
"You ought to be in private box"
Carpenter said he remarked, where
upon the detective felled him with a
blow of his blackjack. Another detec-
tive, Carpenter said, held back spec
tators who tried to come to his assist
ance, and the pair dragged him out of
the stand.
Outside they decided after consul
tation, he said, to let him go. He in
sisted on being taken to a police sta
tion, however, and Neidh Fmer set out
with him, he said, only to abandon him
in the middle of the street and jump
aboard patrol wagon that passed.
Carpenter went on to the police station
alone and made his complaint.

Turning With New
Dancing Revels
New Numbers Added and
the Piece La Much Ina
proved Upon Its Return
to the Little Theater

You who are devoted to the classical
dance as expounded at Carnegie Hail
and the Metropolitan Opera House;
you who smote palms for sweet bar
baric things Of an alien soil as exhibit
ed to the Chauve-- ve--Souris--there Ia
room for you all at the Little Theater,
where Michio Itow spins his newly
primed PIN Wheel"
good many hearts beat happily
last night over the return of this
rronduae to Broadway after brief So
journ with the showsmiths. 1t Is bet
ter than when 1t tenanted the Earl
Carroll 'Theater. And it would be
much better If it were abridged by
amateur numbers and two Japanese
singing acts. 1t may be a very won
derful fish that Mr.. Yuji Itow cheers
in the Song of the Japanese Fisher
man." but there's no real or comfort
ing certainty about it. Perhaps the
only course Is to bring bowl Of as
sorted fish to the song and watch how
they act. Hazel Archibald, obviously
shy on stage routine, sang some glees
and catches of her own talented COM
position, but the really sweet thing
about her Is something that requires
no training-her face.
The "Pin Wheel" is bright with q
manner Of dancing not seen elsewhere
In New York. For instance, there is
tropical night--what chance to out
do Gilda Gray in the sedgey undula-
tions of the hula-hula. But Itow does
not steal Gilda's stuff. His idea Of the
tropical nocturn Is non-abdominal, lib
eral of feet and lavish of hands, but
barbaric and exciting withal. Jazz
and Jazz" isn't just that, but deal
more grotesque, with figures solemn as
the ceremented merchants from. "The
Idle Inn" growing giddy at Chopins
Funeral March. In fact. Itow has
tried to put on something new and ar
tstic, and in the main he has sue
ceeded.
From the earlier show seen at the

Are Told by Police That

Two dazzling arc lights of the type
used in motion picture studios were
planted outside theater on Broadway
near Forty-sixth Street last night to
signalize the opening of motion pic

Motorists found the glare almost

creased by the fact that the crowd
which assembled grew to such pro-
portions that it overfowed the side
walk and almost blocked vehicular
traffic. The services Of several police
men were necessary to keep traffic

One man, at least, complained tc
Police Headquarters, but was Informed
that the theater management had a
permit to have the lights and was
within it's rights. The motorst was
disgruntled and wanted to know if the
city would give him a permit to re-

formed that it would not.

slaughter as the result of the death
Of Mr.. and Mrs. Fremont jackson in
the Hotel Margaret, Brooklyn, while
bradicichi was fumigating an apart

Professor Olsen said he had tried
hydrocyanic gas, the kind used by
bradicichi, on guinea pig and a
house. 1t didn't seem to hurt either
of them, he said.
The two animals were confined, he
and the gas was released the lower

opened, said Professor Olsen, the
guinea pig was seen to have its nose
at crack through which the gas was
seeping and was shifting avidly. Both
ANIMALS had voracious appetites after
the experiment, he said.
The concentration of the gas, Pro-

John Fl. Madden, valuation engineer
of the Transit Commission, at yester-
days hearing on the B. r. T. lines,
submitted revised schedule on behalf
of the valuation bureau of the commits
sion, in which he scaled down the B.
r. T. valuation 1922, 900. He said that
there was one item Of s255,000 which,

covered an omission of $4,000 for elec-
trical switches.
The schedules revised by the bureau
showed that omissions in the estimat tes
of the company aggregated 1871 ,703,
thus increasing the total value of the
property from 1925 ,967 to 72,30O, 500.
Revision of the schedule value of the
property on the basis of 1910 to 1914
prices increased the amount from $780,

Two Pacific Roads
Insist Dissolution
Sacrifices Rights
Joint Operation Antedates
Sherman Act and Results
From Natural Conditions,
Reheari1lg Petition Holds

WASHINGTON, July 31.--Execution
Of the Supreme Court order requiring
the Southern Pacific Company to divest
itself of ownership and control Of the
Central Pacific Railway, would give
retroactive effect to the Sherman
antitrust, law and create new and
untried condition" in the management
of the two roads. according to q brief
filed to-day in support Of petition
for rehearing of the case. No action
will be taken until the court meets in
October.
Joint control and operation of the
Southern and Central Pacific properties
counsel for the defendants contended
had been in effect long before the law
was enacted.
"If the present properties were dis
integrated after fifty years Of unified
and uninterrupted operation" the
brief said, "thc effect would be to
has been but one since the origin of
the properties and also to create a
new and untried condition which has
no prototype"
Not only were the two roads "built
operated and controlled by the same
persons" but the Southern Pacific was
CONSTRUCTED as a continuation" of the
lines of the Central Pacific, and "to
prevent duplication," counsel argued
adding that the builders proceeded
upon the assumption that the lines
would be operated together and
through the fifty years of their exist
ence the properties have never been
other than a unified whole, made up of
integral parts which were the outcome
of normal, natural growth"
at would be the irony Of fate" the
brief continued, off it should turn out
that the unified control of Stanford
and his associates were destroyed by
their stock sales" (referring to the
transfer Of Central Pacific stock, most
ly to foreign investors) "and then
find that the restoration of this uni
fed control by repurchase Of the stock
was illegal"
Declaring it was not the intention of
the Sherman law "to subvert titles
vested before its passage" the brief
presented an exhaustive argument to
support the contention that the lease
Of the Central Pacific to the Southern
Pacific was valid, made in 1885 for a
period of ninety-nine years, and that
the arrangement could not be inter
fered with until the expiration Of the
lease.

Ship Board Seeks
To Reduce Budget
Of $l38,OOo,OO
Sheedy to Pare Expenses
for Subsistence, Stores,
Repairs and Fuel; Hopes
for 5 to 10 PC. Savings

The Shipping Board rapidly is work
ing out plans to reduce it's annual op-
Grating budget of $13e,000,000, Joseph
H Sheedy, vice-president of the Emer-
gency Fleet Corporation, sa.d yester-
day. The most important step, he said,
was that of giving the managing agents
fixed allowances for subsistence, ship
stores, repairs and fuel. The plan for
subsistence and stores has already been
completed. Progress is being made on
repairs and fuel.
The committee appointed by Mr..
Sheedy to study the fuel situation,
under Captain C. A. McAllster as chair
man, has recommended the creation of
a Coal Conservation Department of the
board. 1t was said yesterday that when
this body had finished it's task, saw
ing of to 10 per cent in the $6O,00O,-
600 annual fuel bill was expected.
The Shipping Board has been operat-
ing under the budget system for about
six months. Mr. Sheedy said yesterday
that the President had asked the board
to do its part in eliminating the $780,
rent fiscal year over appropriations by
Congress.
The Shipping Board plans to use fifty
five vessels in the present coal move
ment, Mr.. Sheedy said. He explained
that when the rush started the Emer-
gency Fleet Corporation had twenty
one boats in the "spot fleet" Nine
others were drawn out Immediately
from the idle vessels. These thirty
are being used to replace regular liners
diverted to British ports for coal In
addition, the board is taking out twen-
ty-five steamers to constitute a new

Enright Will Restore
The Ten-Squad System
Commissioner Believes 500
New Men Make Return to
Former Schedule Possible

Police Commissioner Richard E. En-
right, who has been in Europe, returned
to his desk at Police Headquarters yes
terday. He expects to be able to re-
store the ten-squad patrol system in
the departm soon. The nine-squad
system, which prevails at present, gives
a patrolman thirty-two hours off duty
only once in twenty-seven days. Under
the ten-squad system each patrolman
would get thirtytwo hours off each
week.
The nine-squad system swas intro
duced by Commissioner Enright April
7 in order to increase The number of
men on patrol. 1t gave him 600 addi-
tional men each day., Since then 500
men have been graduated from the
training school at Police Headquarters,
and the Commissioner believes he can
return safely to the easier schedule.
He announced that promotions would
be made in the department within a
few days. During his absence a new
eligible list of sergeants was created.
There are more than sixty vacancies in
that rank to be filled.

From The Tribune's Washington Bureau

From The Tribunos Washington Bureau
WASHINGTON, July Ex-senator
Dial, of South Carolina, will endeavor
to have President Harding withdraw
the nomination of Joseph w. Tolbert,
Republican National Committeeman for
South Carolina, to be United States
Marshal for the Western District Of
that state.
Senator Dial, it is understood. will
have the support not only of Demo-
cratic Senators, but Of n number of
Republicans, in opposing the confrma-
tion of Tolbert. Confirmation has been
held up temporarily
Senator Dial has made a series of
charges against Tolbert, the most seri-
Gus of which is the sale of Federal
Offices. The charges are denied by
Tolbert's friends here. Nevertheless,
there will be bitter opposition to con-
firmation unless the nomination is
withdrawn.
Tolbert's nomination is now in the
hands of Il subcommittee Of the Senate
Judiciary Committee. This sub-com-
mittee is looking into the allegations
of Senator Dial. The Senator has not
thus far seen fit to attack Tolbert on
the floor Of the Senate and may not
do so, inasmuch as this is an executive
matter under Senate rules. The rules,
however, are not always observed in
such cases.
Senator Dial charges that Tolbert is
a "spoilsman of the worst class" The
only allegation, however, which would
be likely to cause his rejection by the
Senate. If it we're sustained, Is that as
referee of patronage for the state Toll
bert has divided the state into districts
and required persons appointed to Of
fee to give up to Tolbert and his aids
