District Attorney Weeks admitted to-
cay that private detectives had re-
ported the discovery that Walter S.
Ward maintained a bachelor apart
ment in New York while Mrs. Ward

Wadc's Resignation Rumored
Rumors having 10 do with the pos
sible resignation OF DR. Wade as a
member of the Board of Prison Con-
troll before the trial takes place. with
an accompanying statement by him
that the case already has been pre-
Judged against him by the Governor,
and that the friends OF DR.. Wade,
headed by former Governor John
Walter Smith would be lined up
against Richie in the gubernatorial
primaries. also were set forth in this
mornings Baltimore Sun as being ex-
lstent
Despite all Of these rumors, prepa-
ratlons for the trial are going on with
out abatement, and. according to the
statement accredited TO Samuel X
Dennis, of counsel for DR. Wade, sci
forth in the Baltimore Sun this morn
ing. II is likely to lie attended by
quite a bit of excitement.
Counsel To File Paper
According to The Sun, Mr.. Dennis
Yesterday said he was ready for the
hearing Friday and that his side
would file a paper in the case. Asked
what its nature was, he refused to
state, and 10 the question as to whe-
Their he thought he had a strong case,
his reply was: well, there will be
some excitement"
The proceedings of the trial. it is
said. will not be as formal as those of
4 court. but will be more like the
hearings before the Public Service
Commission. where the rules as to the
admissiblity of evidence are rather
elastic, and the main effort is to get
1t the actual facts in the case
O'Dunne As Prosecutor
AS Mr.. O'Dunne will be expected 10
make out the case against DR.. Wade
follows. according to the Governor,
that he will appear in the light OF
prosecuting attorney and will have
the right to examine witnesses and
cross-examine those for the defense
including DR.. Wade himself. Samuel
<. Dennis and J. Cleveland Grice. at
-orneys for DR.. Wade, will have the
same right to question the witnesses
which Mr.. O'Dunne may produce, and
t is not expected that they will
handle them any too tenderly.

PerchanCe our friend does not take
into consideration that if We look back
few hundred years with unsclfsh in

ception, will realize that, after all, we
all descend from Foreigners aud
strangers.
III 1t were not for our ancestors, Who
were at one time. too, strangers. pos
sibly most Of MS would nor be here to
draw our individual conclusions, and
rate our social privileges, excluding those
who are not so fortunate as TO fall heirs
to others fruit of toll.
Really Is il so very difficult 70 CEN
sure poor stranger or foreigner and
kick him unkindly when you are Sc
cure in your own social and financial
dominion
Is II magnanimOus 70 sncer at a
stranger in our city because no is un-
acquainted with our exacting customs
and individual tastes Why then DO
we hypocritlcally preach Americnni2a-
tion?
i suggest that we eRdcavor 10 teach
these strangers our customs and take
them among us TO be- treated with hu-
man respect and sincere kindness Docs
not our democracy teach that "all men
are created equal? Let us be true to
our teachings, Let US associate these
strangers and foreigners with US in
order TO help us build Il greater city

ideals OF unsclfshness and good will 10
