MOOSE DICTATOR
CONFIRMS CHARGE
MADE BY COLGAN
Order Approached for Sup
port of Hearst Political
Aspirations, He Says.

Partial confirmation Of the charge
of George A. Colgan that he was fired
from his job as Deputy Commissioner
of Markets because he refused to use
his influence as an Elk to further the
political aspirations OF William Ran
dolph Hearst and that lie was told by
Francis +. Bent that Hearst ennis
saries were atawork among Masons,
theh Order of tMe Moose and knights
of Columbus, was obtained to-day
from William Garvan, Dictator of
Brooklyn Lodge No. II of the Moose
organization. Mr.. Garvan has not
only heard of the activities of Hearst
workers in his order but has been
personally approached In the interest
Of Hearst or Hylan.
Mr.. Colgan's ace in tho hole, which
he promises to turn over when Mayor
lIylan personally denies his charges,
remains buried. The Mayor persists
in his refusal to call Mr.. Colgan's
hand.
Mr.. Garvan, the Moose Dictator.
showed resentment over the efforts of
the managers of tho Hearst boom TO
use his organization. His attitude Is
that Of all tho officers Of fratcrnal
orders who have discussed tho mat
ter. They agree that an attempt to
capitalize membership in a fraternal
order for political purposes will in
jure any candidate for office.
"Such thing never viii bo tolcr-
ated in this order" Mr.. Garven said.
"Our order iS non political ana non
religious l have myself been ap-
preached and have been asked about
how the members of this lodge felt
| toward Hearst or Hylan for Cover
nor. There was u report that Hylan
had once Joined the WoOdhaven Lodge
| of Moose, but have found no record
OF his membership.
"a story has also reached my ears
| about a member of our lodge, who
holds minor office, who is said
| to have been asked or volunteered tC
| see what he could do among the boys
| il Hearst or Hylan were nominated
am going to investigate that report
thoroughly, and II it is true ! shall
warn this member of the danger OF
| such a thing. The matter will be
| taken up at our next meeting Of the
| officers on Aug. 10. We shall inquire
whether anybody has been approached
in this way and will advise all mem
bers not to be Influenced by the ap.
pcals Of any fellow member acting or
| behalf of a candidate.
"There are several races and sect'
| represented in our membership, ans
| the lodge Is not to be used for poll
| teal purposes. Secretary Of Labol
| Davis is one of my closest friends; h,
| is a Republican and Democrat, and
/ wouldn't listen to him IL he askoC
| me 10 swing the membership for any
candidate. And, Of course, no wouIdn"
ask any such thing"

The point at which the fire occurred
is one of the busiest In the west side
tube, and the rush in the morning Is
second only to Times Square. A tun-
mel connects the station with Broad
way and there are stalrways leading
from local to through tracks, to the
Long Island and Pennsylvania sta
tions and to the street. Tho many
avenues OF exit tended largely to quiet
the crowd that poured from the train
! and the station. and prevented more
serious panic and a list OF injured.
| Another factor that contributed to
preventing a more serious panic was
the conduct OF the guards on the
train. who showed intelligence in
dealing with the situation.
The train was in charge OF Conduc-
tor George Kaplin. Joseph d. Wood
was the motOrman. As the train en-
tered the station Wood glided in with
out power and then TO move on turned
on little OF the. Juice. The shoe evil
IDENTIFY came IN contact with something
that produced n short circuit. There
W. report like a shot, flash of
parti -colcred flame. a sheet of white
f,lne like l'ghtning and the smell OF
burning insulation.
AS the heavy. acrid smoke perme-
ated the forward cars and the fore
part Of the station there was an inn
mediate rush for doors Of the cars,
which carried the usual crowds. The
conductor and guards, shouting there
was no danger. opened the doors of
| the cars at the ends and sides and
the train was emptied in a minute.
Many persons who had been going
to alight at the station were anxious
to get out and fought through the
congestion. Those coming into It,
smelling the burning insulation and
getting a sight of the smoke as ir
| found its way up the stairs and graf
ing and lay along the sidewalk in the
heavy atmosphere Of the morning,
made a break to go hack
Young girls struggled to get out
and to get down into the tunnel that
rus to Broadway. There they were
met by those coming through that
tunnel. In an instant every exit from
the station was pouring out frantic
women on the verge OF hysteria, some
whose clothes had been dlsarranEed
in the scramble.
Among the first TO reach the side
wall was a young girl who had
shouted "Firc. Explosion" She was
responsible for great deal OF the
panic. Frank Lavine, OF No. 7O5
Rhinelander Avenue. saw the smoke
coming through the grating and
heard the yells of the girl as she
reached tho street. He pulled a fire
alarm box and in few minutes the
apparatus was rafting up 10 the
| station.
| Among the first to arrive was Act
| ing Chief "Smoky Joe" Martin, who
handled the Lexington Avenue sub
way fire and whose headquarters are
only a block away. He was followed
by Deputy Chief Ross. In a few
minutes the police and firemen had
taken charge and order was coming
out OF what for an instant was chaos.
Tho blaze. which had been communi-
Gated to the grease and woodwork OF
the car, was put out by hand extin-
guishers and Martin, to make sure,
had two lines OF hose run down into
the subway. The water in these was
not turned on.
| The power was shut OF and, remem-
| bering the finding OF persons blocks
from the actual fire in Lexington
Avenue, Chief Martin had the fire.

chintz-hung dressing room at the Full

dag, that Pat Somerset, an English
actor who has an important role In the
play, was threatened with deportation
and that she was the Indirect cause Of
a warrant being issued for him. His
examination Is to take place to-day
at Ellis Island unless his attorneys,
O'Brien, Malevinski s. Driscoll, sue
coed in having it postponed.
Miss Day and Mr.. Somerset readily
acknowledged that they were in love
with each other. If Carrie Carlton, the
theatrical producer, who is MSS Days
husband, over would finish ono Of the
numerous divorce actions he Institutes,
they said, they would be married.
If that was moral turpitude," the
offense charged in the warrant, said
Mr.. Somerset, his "paternal Uncle

that they lived under the same roof in

Miss Day was far more perturbed
than Mr.. Somerset, not by the charge,
but by the thought that she might
