Many Driven Mad By Hoerrors of FireMassacre. Miss Mary Morton Among 5 Sailing In Relief Work. Payment Terms at the Homer L. Kitt Co.- “Knabe Pianos” 1330 G St. N.W. { A former Washington girl. Miss Mary Louise Morton, once secretary to the late Senator Willlam' Hughes of New Jersey, is among u group of Near East Relief workers who have been given the job of reuniting scat- tered refugee familles from the Sr region, according to a cable Teceived at headquarters of the Near l] East Relief, 131 5th avenue, New York, today from H.

When the Public Utllities Commission takes up the application of, the Federa- tion of Citizens’ Assbciations for a re- duction in fare on Capital Traction lines it is practically certain that the Washington Railway and Electric Com- pany will renew its objection to differ- ent rates of fare for the two systems. William F. Ham, president of the Washington Raflway and Electric, said he was not prepared today fo discuss the rate situdtion, but he indic: plainly that he does not believe theis has Leen any change in the local traction Eitug- tion_to warrant the commisslon in fix- ing two different rates of fare. i If the commission should inquire into the posibility of a_reduction on both systems the Wasbington Rail- way and Electric Company will pre- sent figures to show that it is falling short of a reasonable return, even with the present rate of fare.

Members of the police force are en- gaged in their regular fall campaign to rid the city of so-called undesir- il |ables. Uruanly at this season, Maj. Daniel Sullivan, superintendent of police, said today, numerous strangers, known as “floaters,” reach here and camp for the winter. Somc of them may be honest, he said, but it is presumed that many of them are here for no good purpose and should be treated as vagrants. “I believe every bootlegger and handbook man is a vagrant,” Maj. Sullivan said, “and the courts should treat them as such.” “The question of the floaters being vagrants will be put squarely up to the court” he added, “and it is the intention of the department to make it 50 Interesting to this class of unde- sirables that they will Jeave the city.” Anxfous to Ri& the LU Inspector Clifford L. Granf, chitef of detectives, said he hoped the depart- ment would succeed in_ ridding the city of every person who is in the undesirable class. Scores of strike- breakers have- been sent here from other citles, he safd, and many of them are classed among those who will be of no particular benefit to the city. Tf permitted to remain here during the winter, the inspector said, he fears they will remain until the city is filled with visitors on the occasion of the Shriners’ gathering here next summer. The inspector said he is anxious to have the city clear of all undesirables when the visitors arrive. “Capt. E.

According to Mr. Vickrey this work is largely confined to the care and training of orphans of the world war and rubsequent massacres and periods of starvation. cinct has been doing excellent work in the matter of rounding up the 9th street loafers,” Inspector Girant re- marked, “and our crusade will cover the entire city.” Several Arrests Made. Several were arrested last night in the round-up. Some gave out-of- town addresses, while others were known residents of this efty, not at present emploved. One man, it was alleged, had spent much time in the vielnity of New York avenue and 9th street, and it was claimed by the po- lice that he had tipped off handbook men when dctectives or policemen ap- peared in the neighborhood. Another man was arrested just after he had made a purchase of two pints of corn liquor. It was suspected that iz was going to sell the liquor, but he enteredg vigorous denial when accused. Inspector Grant released the two young men. In doing so, however, he warned them that in the future {t would be well for them to move in different societv. “Go to work,” was the inspector’s ad: “If you take the bit in your mouths and try to live wild, we will check vou up with a bang.” Further investigations are belng made with respect to others caught in the crusade. alities of a CORNWELL 12i5:17 F STREET and also brought word !
