Belief that the recent closure

coma has resulted In loss Of bust
ness for merchants. by virtue OF
service men going to other cities
II erroneous. according TO a state
nent Saturday morning by DR.. Lee
Powers. director OF health.
Dr.. Powers said that accurate
figures have been given to him
about the number OF service men
- Tacoma the weekend Of
August .. On that particular
weekend there were $4,000 serv-
ice men in Tacoma, while only
3.0So went to Seattle from Fort
Lewis. McChord field and Camp

That was the heaviest week

bsen . large concentration of
troops near Tacoma" Powers
said. and II occurred several days
following the official closing Of
bawdy houses. Since that day the
men have been on maneuvers.
making 1t difficult to know how
many have been here.
'Persons who are trying TO dis
credit the closing Of the houses
are using the weak loss of bush
ness argument in their propa-
gsnda- These figures seem to in
dicate that they are misinformed."

Retrial of Suit Against
Perkins and Clapp Ordered

S. A. Perkins and Norton Clapp,
Tacoma finsnciers. and Roy N
Bathum, Seattle ccountan [
against whom a $4,000 Judgment
was given by a jury last June,
were awarded a new trial in King
county superior court in Seattle
Friday.
The three men were charged by
the plaintiff, Otto A. Erdevig, Sc
attic accountant, with conspiring
TO procure his arrest by falsely
charging him with the crime of
grand larceny by ENLIGHTENMENT,
and thus prevent his entering into
competition with the Alaska
Transportation Co, owned by Per
kins and Clapp.
Erdevig, former employee OF
the Alaska Transportation Co, had
been acquitted on the charge OF
grand larceny involving company
funds.
Justice Miscarried
81 am thoroughly convinced that
justice has miscarried," Superior
Court Judge Donald A. Mcdonald
said in a memorandum opinion.
Judge Mcdonald presided at the
trial in June.
MY close consideration of the
arguments, authorities and ex-
hibits in the case leads me to the
unacceptable conclusion that the
verdict is contrary to the weight
of evidence" Judge Mcdonald con-
tinued.
Il do not say the verdict is
wholly unsupported by any EVIL
dence. or that verdict should
have been directed, or a non-suit
granted. The jurors were good and
well-meaning people, but the case
was packed so full of emotional
drama, and dashed as they were by
the powerful lnVectlve OF able
counsel John ]. Kennett, Seattle
attorney for the plaintiff in his
closing address. / am satisfied
that while still under the influence
of his eloquence. they returned
this verdict before emotion had
been fettered and reason and calm
judgment had been liberated.
Believed largest
The verdict rests almost wholly
on the testimony Of Erdevig. cor
roborated in part by his wife and
sister. During the trial 81 wit
nesses were examined and 100 ex-
hibits, some Of them yolunninons
