placed on the stand. Leslie denied that
Sutter had been employed in connec?
tion with the cas?', although he ad?
mitted that he hired Shaw, Suitor's
brother-in-law, to do the trailing for
him at Sutter'a suggestion. Sutter said

I contract of sale was between whom

i seller.
Q.?Do you remember tho purchaser?
A. Yes, sir,
O. Who? A. Inspector Dwyer.
Q Now, do you remember the con?
tract price? A.?I think it was about
?$164,000.

either $15,000 or $17.000, as I recall it.

insisted it was a private litigatior
and that anything ''in the Allers caBC
cannot have any possible connection
with the investigation of any depart
ment in the City of New York, or anj
officer thereof."
Meeting With Inspector
"I am not so sure about that," came
back Mr. Brown. Leslie said he was
president of tho Court Martial Boarc
in the Police Reserves and that he mei
Sutter and Inspector Dwyer in hi?
capacity as a reserve official. He ad?
mitted hiring Shaw on Sutter's recom
mendation. At this point ho attaekec
Winters's story as vicious and withou
foundation and referred to Winters'
suit against him now pending. He do
nied that Sutter had anything to d<
with the case or that he gave him an;
money.
He said, however, that both Sutte'
and Inspector Dwyer were frequcn
visitors to his office in connection wit'i
police reserve work, and that Sutte
brought to his office char?es proferre'
against reserves. He said Winters wa
a friend of his for twenty-five years
and after going away for twelve year
came back about two years ago, who
: he again became associated with hi
firm. Leslie said he paid Shaw lib
crally for his work, but couldn't re
I member how much.

?Court Rejects
Hi?es Plea for
New Primary
Just ?or McAvoy Rules That
Evidence Contained in Af?
fidavit? Fails to Show
Fraud Permeated Election
'Minor Error?' Admitted
Recamas? in District of
Anli - Murphy Candidate
Show? Only 10 Changes
Justice McAvoy in the Supreme
: Court yesterday denied the applica
j tion of James J. Hlnes for an order
i directing that a new Democratic
primary election be held to determine
whether Hines, the anti-Murphy candi?
date, or Julius Miller, the Tammany
organization candidate, shall be the
Democratic nominee for President of
The Boiough of Manhattan, llines ran
independently against Miller, who was
named by Charles P, Murphy.
Hincs received more than 20,000
vote?, and in tho examination of the
ballots cast throughout the horough
his counsel, Vincent S. Lippe, declared
that there had been so much fraud
discovered that a new primary elec?
tion would be the only equitable boIu
lion of tho fight.
Justice McAvoy said that the deci?
sion of the court must be governed by
proof that the primary election had
been so permeated by fraud, as alleged
by Hines, as to render it impossible
for the count to determine the true
result. Such proof, held the Justice,
had not been presented. The affidavits
telling of alleged frauds, he said, were
in no such number ns would justify
the court to determine the true result.
'"There is wholly lacking that demon
1 stratIon of pervading fraud in the
! whole result," said Justice McAvoy,
' "from which would spring the right
invoked."
During the argument before tho
courl Lippe, representing Mr. Hi?e:-,
! said thi't the brief reranvnss of vote?
I casi at the primary election indicutod
? that Hines had received the nomina?
tion for Borough President by a ma?
jority of 5,000, while the officiai count
gave Miller n majority of 8,511. ? He
cited several Instances of alleged
frauds.
George W. Olvany, counsel for Mil?
ler, argued against the holding of a
new election. One argument made by
him wtt!; that such new election would
cost the city $75.000. Justice McAvoy
remarked that the cost would not be
considered if it was found, as alleged,
that the election had been permeated
by fraud. Olvany said there may
h?\vo been some minor errors in tab?
ulating the vote, Imt denied there was
any deliberate fraud,
Slight Change in Eleventh
Lippe .mid last night that the rc.can
vaas of the primary vote in tho Jlth
District, which the Hines people never
objected to, had justified the earlier
statement by Hines and others to the
effect that the election there was con?
ducted according to lnw and that every
one p,ot his just deserts.
"Out of 4,040 votes cast there were
only ten variations from tho original
canvass disclosed by the recanvnss,"
said Mr. Lippe. "The tally sheets bal?
anced with the police returns and in
all respects there wus a strict com?
pliance with the election law. What
slight variations there were are ac?
countable for by construction of the
law, and they are too few in the ag?
gregate to be of any account.
"There was no systematized and de?
liberate fraud shown. Doubtless Mr,
Olvany, representing Tammany Hall,
will make much of the disclosure that
there were double crosses on a few of
the ballots, thus voiding them. None
of the ballots so marked were counted
for Hines. They were segregated as
void ballots. The recount of the 11th
District, of which Mr. Hines is leader,
was made solely for 'grandstand' effect
to offset the studied and considerable
frauds committed in Charles P. Mur?
phy's Assembly district. Now it acts
as a boomerang, and adds to the con?
viction, which is becoming widespread,
that wherever the Murphy henchmen
could do so they cheated Hines."
doing clerical work in the office of In?
spector Dwyer. He said from March,
1920, to November, 1920. he was de?
tailed to plain clothes duty on Staten
Island with Inspector Dwyer. He said
his brother-in-law, Shaw, was a chauf?
feur, living at r.r> Bank Street, but was
now out of work. Sutter said he had
nothing to do with tho Allers case.
Mary Schacht, secretary to Mr. Les?
lie, could only remember that she had
received certain reports on the Allers
case from Mr. Shaw, and that she made
certain payments to Shaw for his work,
but couldn't remember how much
money she gave him or what the re?
ports were. She didn't recall seeing
Sutter in the office.

"A full registration is the most im?

voters who have not already made up
their minds that Hylan must go in or?

Lawrence was re-elected chairman of
the Bronx Republican Committee, and
a united and harmonious front was
promised for the work for the Republi?
can-coalition ticket. The members of
the committee gave the two nominees a
most enthusiastic reception.
Major Curran urged upon the com?
mittee members the necessity of bond?
ing every effort toward registration.

WASHINGTON. Sept. 28 (By The As?

unlimited debate reached such propor
i tions to-day that an unofficial commit?
tee of Republican Senators went to
' the White House and conferred on the
question with President Harding.
While the proposed rule has not yet
been drawn up, it was understood that
? the plan contemplates a change in the
' Senate rules so that cl?ture would be
? invoked by a mere majority vote, in
I stead of by the two-thirds vote now
! required. After invocation of the rule
| ?ach Senator's time for debate would
? be limited to one hour, it was said.
Sudden as was the movement to defi
; nitely restrict the ancient rule permit
j ting Senators to speak at length, those
behind the plan declared to-night for
ehe fir?t time in the Senate's history
I adoption of a real majority cl?ture rule
I impended.
The informal committee which dis
| cussed the matter with the President
! consisted of Senators Lenroot, of Wis?

i said to have received assurances that
the Executive would not interpose any

49 Terra Cotta
Makers Indicted
By U. S. as Trust
Every Manufacturer in the,!
Country but One Accused
by Federal Grand Jury of
Sherman Act Violation
Accused of Price-Fixing
Plot Jo Bar Competition
and Boost From $40 a
Ton to $800 ?* Charged
The special Federal Grand Jury in
vestigating the alleged scandals in the
building trades revealed hy the Look
wood committee yesterday returned
two indictments under the Sherman
anti-truflU law, which, according to
Special Assistant United State? Dis?
trict Attorney David L. Podcll, involve
every terra cotta manufacturer in the.
country but one.
The first indictment, names twenty
two corporations and twenty-seven in?
dividuals connected with them, and
covei'3 the entire country. The second
I involves seven corporations. n\id eleven
1 individuals doing business in the East
? ein section of the United States, all of
whom are also named in the. first in?
dictment.
All these corporations are members
of the National Terra Cotta Society,
whoso headquarters are at 1 Madison
Avenue. Mr. Podcll explained yester?
day that the reason for returning two
indictments was that one charge was
found against members of the Eastern
division of the society, who also belong
to the Eastern Terra Cotta Association,
which it had been impossible to estab?
lish against the manufacturers in the
West.
To Plead Within Two Weeks
Both cases will be tried in the Fed?
eral Court nere and, although no time
has yet been set for pleading, the gov?
ernment prosecutors said that this
would take place within two weeks.
United States District Attorney Hay
ward himself took an active part in the
proceedings before the grand jury,
along with David L. Podell and Ben?
jamin S. Kirsh, two of his special as?
sistants in the building trades inves?
tigation.
Announcement was made yesterday
that Raymond L. Wise, formerly as?
sistant counsel for the Lockwood com?
mittee, has been retained to assist in
the building trades litigation. He re?
signed a3 assistant counsel to the
Meyer committee to enter this work.
In discussing the effects of the al?
leged conspiracy in restraint of trade
yesterday, Colonel Haywurd, declared
that the government investigation,
which led to the indictments, has shown
that Finco the society was formed the
price of terra cotta has risen from
about $40 a ton to $300 and $400 a
ton, and in the case of so-called addi?
tions even as high as $800 a ton.
Supply Never Met Demand
"We find that with'-the possible ex?
ception of rare and isolated cases not a
single manufacturer has increased his
kiln capacity," he declared. "They
took pains to see that the supply never
equalled the demand."
Terra cotta, he added, is second only
to steel in importance to the builder,
and the evidence in the hands of the
government shows that the entire in?
dustry in this country is in the hands
of some twenty-three men?
A statement was issued from Col
-".??^~???'?'??? ??**?
onel Hnywnrd'u office yest?r?ay after
noon setting forth the general nature
of the charges in the Indictments.
"The first indictment charges foul
different violation? of the Sherman
I law," the statement reads. "The finit
i of these relates to the elimination of
competition through a division of terri?
tory. Prior to the organization of the
association ?11 tetra cotta manufac?
turers competed freely throughout the
country. Tho .iceiety divided the coun?
try in such manner that the majority
of the terra cotta manufacturers of
the country refused to enter and com?
peto in the New York market and have
refrained from making any sales or
shipments in the New York market by
common agreement.
Price-Fixing Charged
"The second count more directly
charges price-fixing through the medi?
um of the open price plan. The de?
tail? of the business of each concern,
it is charged, were disseminated among:
all o^her concerns.
"The third count chargea that an
elimination of all competition on the
subject of so-called additions, so that
the one manufacturer v/ho had erect";!
the original structure could dictate his
own price to the builder or owner of
the building who desired to make any
extensions or to erect any adjacent
structures.
The fourth count of the indictment
charges monopoly of the terra cotta
industry of the United States. The in?
dictment alleges that the association
controlled more than 96 per cent of the
ferra cotta industry in the United
States and by reason of the evil prac?
tices in price fixing, division of terri?
tory and elimination of competition
has violated tho Sherman law and has
monopolized the industry.
Th.e second indictment, which in?
volves only tho Eastern group of manu?
facturers, contains all the counts set
forth in the indictment against the
national group and adds a further
count charging the Eastern group with
elimination of competition and price
fixing through the medium of an allot?
ment and division of business among
themselves. Ihe indictment alleges
that by common agreement each of the
Eastern manufacturers was allotted a
specific percentage of the business and
that they all agreed not to exceed their
respective quotas.
"In the monopoly count against the
Eastern group it is charged that they
completely controlled the terra cotta
industry in the Eastern States and by
reason of their unfair and illegal prac?
tices through the price fixing, elimi?
nation of competition and by various
other methods they violated the monop?
oly section of the Sherman law.
