GOOD SAMARITANS
NOT KIDNAPPERS
Took Girl Into Auto When
Motorcycle Party Was
Caught in Storm.
Pcdice from Trenton to Newark were
agitated last night when the report of
a kidnapping was flashed from the
New Jersey capital. They were asked
to look out for an automobile in which
Marie White, nineteen, of Balti?
more, was being kidnapped.
Luke M. White, father of the girl,
and Truax Cox, both of Baltimore,
told the Trenton police that they were
nd'r.g with Miss White from Balti?
more to New Yoik on a motorcycle
with a Fide-car attachment and that
when near Philadelphia a storm over?
took them.
An automobile came along, they said,
and the occupants offered to take Miss
White inside,'while the men rode along
in the rain.
Abort 8 o'clock, when the car was
? through Newark, it was stopped
by a motorcycle policeman. The owner,
Louis LixitS, an elderly man, his wife
and three children denied the kidnap?
ping charge. Miss White explained
matters satisfactorily, telephoned to
OX at Trenton and t*le
family was allowed to proceed
to New York.

MURDOCH SURE
OF \9\6 VICTORY
FOR BULL MOOSE
Committee Chairman's
Canvass Responsible for
Optimistic Forecast.
PERSONAL POLITICS
TO HAVE NO WEIGHT
Candidacies To Be Subsidiary to
Platform Planks in Progr?s
sive Party's Convention.
Mount Pleasant, Iowa, Aug. 1. Vic?
tor Murdock, of Kansas, chairman of
the Progressive National Committee,
made the following statement to-day
"I have just completed a three
months' personal canvass of the situ?
ation with the Progressives in the
l'entrai West and on the Pacific Coast,
and after making it I am ready to say
flatfootedly that we, Progressives are
going into the 1916 fight as a party and
to win.
"Moreover, a meeting of represent?
ative Progressives held this month in
New York City reported the same con
ditions in the East that I have found
in the West, and they are^lining up
for the next battle. This ?i%o is the
sentiment of the Progressive National
Committee. We will hold our na?
tional convention early and nomipa'e a
ticket.
Platform the Crucial Issue.
"The great convention battles of j
1916 wil not be over candidacies, but
will be over platforms. The storm ?'
will rage not in the committee on
credentials, but in the committee on
resolutions. The Bourbon Republi?
can leadership will not only insist on
a standpat candidate, but will fight for
an unstinted and unequivocal indorse?
ment of the administration of William
H. Taft, including the Pavne-Aldrich i
tariff bill.
"The Democratic leadership likewise
will point with pride to the equally la?
mentable Simmons-Cnderwood tariff
bill, ?and against a Bryan insurrection
of the first magnitude will cancel the
one-term Presidential pleilgc and other!
Bryan propaganda, and the Progres- ;
sives wil! reiterate and re-emphasize
their Chicago platform of 1911-'. That
platform remains the most nearly per?
fect utterance of the principles of
Abraham Lincoln of modern times.
"Both in its protest against the in-1
roads of privilege fattening on an era'
of gross materialism and in its practi?
cal Programme of concrete economic !
remedies, the Progressive platform has
become to hundreds of thousands of
aggressive Americans the Ark of the ;
?"ovenant, and there is not a township !
anywhere without its group of Hittites
devoted wholly and solely to its preser?
vation.
"The Progressives have the right
plan for the tariff and other economic
issues, including the trust problem.
Tariff Law a Failure.
"The Democratic leadership, after
two and a half years' trial, has signally
failed in solving the nation's economic
questions. Its tariff law, slammed to?
gether under the old log-rolling lead?
ership, is utterly unproductive of any ?
of the results previously claimed for
it. Its trust legislation flounders, its
attempts at the developmer of Ameri?
can oeear.-goir.g craft have fizzled.
"That this is the iudgment of the
voter is ample evidence of the tre- ?
rrendous anti-Democratic sentiment
that has developed at the polls at
virtually every election in the last two (
years. At manv of these elections the
roter cast a Republican ballot because
BO believed that the Republican lead?
ership had learned its lesson and would
hereafter take the Progressive nath.
"But now the voters know for a cer?
tainty that when the Republican lead- i
ership has been restored to power, if I
has shown more, net less, reactionary j
tendencies, as is notably evidenced bv '
the actions of the legislatures in N4
York, Ohio ni"! Massachusetts.
Parly ?if I'uhlir Service.
"Hnnd in hand with 'he I'rngressi'
proposition to eneompsw social ai
Industrial iustice goes the necessi
of solving the great ?conomie pmblcn
<.f the countrv. not on the basis of p
litiiiil advantage, of which praeti
both the old partiel are infamous
guilty, but on the basis of service 1
society.
"Everywhere I found those Proirre
who made the fight in 191! wit
idea uppermost eager now to coi
tiniie the light. Wherever they ha\
had a chance to make rood thev ha\
none sn,
"The spectacle of Republican reai
lion in New York and Ohio, in contra;
to I'mrrcsMve achievement in ('slifoi

vire. Therefore the Progressive part
will po on with its ficht straight ou

SAYS COURTHOUSE

L M. D. McGuire Points Out
$700.000 Has Been Spent,
but Sees No Benefit.
The Board of Estimate or some other
business end of the city government
should be the body to plan the new
courthouse, according to Laurence M.
D. McCuire, president of the Real Es?
tate Board of New York. In a state?
ment i^sttod yesterday he urges that
Supreme Court justices be eliminated
from official connection with the con
?? ruction of the building, and that a
'ire for courthouse purposes,
without frill?-, fancies or fads, be I
erected.
"Now that the extravagance in
planning the building has been shown."
he continues, "the next thing to do is
rid of the courthouse board
which approved the plans."
Mr. McGuire concludes that stmpli-'
tied business methods, and not city sur?
reys and efficiency reports, are wanted,

MINE EXPLOSIONS
NOT "ACTS OF GOD"
Government's Engineer
Charges Means of Pre?
vention Are Not Used.
ONLY 15 PER CENT
TAKE PRECAUTIONS
Death Claims Needless Toll of
from 400 to 1,100 Lives Each
Year in United States.
frrom Th? Trihun? Rurain |
Washington, Aug. 1. Mine explo?
sions are not "acts of God." but can
be prevented if the mine operators and
miners will follow the recommenda?
tions of the Hureau of Mines, accord?
ing to a report by George 8. Rice,
chief mining engineer of the bureau,
made public to-day. Mr. Rice charged
that mine managements are not using
the means that are at hand to prevent
explosion?.
"Despite all that has been said and
written during recent years about the
prevention of explosions," said Mr.
Hice, "it niu.-f be admitted that un?
satisfactory progress has been made
in this country in lessening the num?
ber of dust explosions. Hut of one
hundred typical mines examined in one
state only fifteen were taking anv pre?
cautions, and in only a few of theae
was there enough systematic humidify?
ing or watering to give reasonable as?
surance that the coal dust, always
present in a coal mine, was rendered
non-ignitable.
Hundred? Killed Fach Vear.
"The risk of an explosion seems to
a mining man like the chance of being
s?ruck by lightning, yet the chances
are greater than that, as indicated by
the toll of mine, explosions in this
country, which has varied in recent
years from 400 to 1,100 deaths per an?
num.
"No better illustration of the ad?
vantage of carefulness can be found
than in the mines of Belgium. In those
mines great instantaneous outbursts
of inflammable gas from the measures
into the? mine workings are frequent,
sometimes smothering the n.en, yet for
the last twenty years no explosions of
any magnituile have occurred through
ignition of the gas; though prior to
IMS, wh?n less precautions were
Itaken, there hail been many great dis
I asters.
"Without open flame of some sort
I there would be no mine explosiona.
I Permissible explosives, as recommend
e?i by the bureau for use in gaseous
j mines, produce some flame, bu' their
: flame i? so small and its duration is so
brief that if properly used they will
? not ignite gas or dust, and if they were
employed throughout the coal mm?s
i to the exclusion of blaek powder, dyna
, mite and other explosives of a charac
! ter dangerous to use in coal mining
! nearly one-half of the explosion*
! would he prevented.
"If safety lamps or permissible pier
tn<' lamps were used, even in so-called
( non-gaseous mine', it || thought that
i more than one-third of all the explo?
sions in this country would be pre?
vented.
Danger from Open Lights.
"There are many mines, doubtless
more than half oT the mines in the
' United States, in which small bodies
of gas are occasionally reported, yet
| these mines are rated as non-gaseous,
and open lights are freely used, despite
the fait that a considerable proportion
1 of the explosions have occurred in just
such mines through the ignition of a
' pocket of gas by long-flame explosives
? or by an open light.
"The reason for greater immunity
from explosions in mines that are ord
inai/ly considered dangerous because
of the preaenee ?if tire-damp is that
""?eater care is taken in all respects.
Vigilance is. not relaxed, open lights
1 and the use of matches are forbidden.
, permissible explosive* are exclusively
used and the ventilation at the work
' ing places, at the face, is carefully
. maintaine?).''

This Day, Bright and Early,
Opens the One Great August Sale
of Furniture Deserving the Name
E have been talking of our
homes?how through fear of
the future we have let them
run down even though we
had money to fix them up.
We have been talking of the
prosperity of our co^aitry, of
our people, of each one of us?
how the prosperity of the indi?
vidual depends largely upon the
prosperity of the whole; how the
hoarding of money halts pros?
perity, how the spending of it
wisely hastens prosperity.
We have been telling of the
natural wealth and prosperity of
our country ? bumper crops,
more money in the savings banks
than ever before, laager incomes
according to the tax paid lastyear.
Now we have a few word?
to say about the Wanamaker
Store and the Wanamaker
August Sale of Furniture.
The Wanamaker Store orig?
inated the August Sale of Furni?
ture. There is a certain distinc?
tion in this?in being original in point of time.
But there is a greater distinction in being original
in character.
It is more to YOU, the buyer of furniture,
to know that the Wanamaker August Sale is still
FIRST today as it was when the store originated
the sale some twenty years ago?first in charac?
ter, first in reliability, first in volume, first in
variety, first in quality, first in values, first in last?
ing satisfaction.
First in New York and in Philadel?
phia (where our two stores are lo?
cated), first in the United States and
first in the world. There is no other
August Sale of Furniture to compare
with the Wanamaker Sale. ?
This statement is made with due knowledge
and due modesty, it is the truth, as any one may
see by personally visiting here and elsewhere.
The writer after seeing the Grand Canyon
said he would nevermore use the superlative in
advertising. But he feels so strongly about this
August Furniture Sale that he cannot help calling
it what it is?GREATEST OF ALL.
Visitors call it "greatest." Greatest in ex?
tent and volume of the furniture, which coven
three block-long floors. Greatest in variety, <\
tending from the finest period furniture that is
mad?;, costing several thousand dollars for a suite,
down to the plainest, simplest and cheapest 'bu?
reau that is worth owning, for as little as $8.
Greatest in the artistry and simplicity of designs,
the good taste in decorations; the absence of the
tawdry, the garish, the commonplace. Greatest
in the high qualities of wood and cabinet work
and the low prices maiked on the August tags.
This perhaps does not sound like a Wana?
maker announcement. It smacks a little of the
other kind, the exaggerated over-drawn state?
ment. But many people have said that we are
too modest about this August Sale of Furniture,
that we understate its greatness, and that we do
not give a proper conception of its superlative
character and its enormous advantages to the
public?
So we risk criticism and state the
FACTS as strongly and vehemently
as we can, knowing that they will
"prove up" upon personal inspection
of the furniture.
The selling is passing all former records,
which proves up not only the Sale itself but the
willingness of the people now to spend their
money in fixing up their homes?thus
giving work to more people, keeping
more money in motion, and bring?
ing more prosperity to the whole
country.
