Then Broadway’s night clubs And speak-easies were raided, v Rumors that more intense activity, •' was intended were admitted by Assistant United States Attorney John J. Fogarty, in charge of the campaign against the prescription graft. The raids on the theater district are part of a concerted plan directed iby Police Commissioner HcLaughlin and Prohibition Administrator Mills. Mills has said there are more than 15,000 speak-easies in the city, and it was the duty of the police to go after them. mayorlFsei MEETING DATE To Draft Merit System Rules —Board Named.

Civic Clubs, who will cooperate with Police Chief Claude F. Johnson. Meanwhile, a special committee named by Duvall is investigating civil service procedure in other cities and will assist the newly named ofcials to draft the formal proposal, which must be ratified by the city cabinet. FRICINIRKS .HALL INQUIRY Bu United Preen \ 9 NEW BRUNSWICK, N. J., Aug. 6.—A drift today' toward that same lack of harmony which four years ago sent the first investigation of the Hall-Mills murder into blind alleys, has been indicated by Assistant Attorney General Alexander simpson, special prosecutor. His order to the State police to make out warrants for the arrests of two persons, had not been followed he said. At the State troopers’ headquarters it was held that such an order had not been received. This was the first real indication of friction in the present probe. Simpson had wanted the arrests of Ralph M. Gorsline, vestryman and member of the church choir in the Rev. Edward W. Hall s church, and Mrs. Nellie L. Russell, Negress, who lives near the murder scene, he said.

one person was killed fend several Injured. The paper said that 300 persons, mostly women and all Catholics marched to the central plaza shouting: “Long live religion.” One woman was placed in jail when she assaulted the mayor, who refused a permit for the parade. The crowd Increased to 1,000 and some of its members met and mauled the chief of police and then tried to hold off advancing gendarmes with an incendiary bomb. When the gendarmes fell back Federal troops were called out. The troops fired 200 shots over the heads of the crowd and then charged, killing one man who attempted to seize a trooper's rifle. Several women were among the injured and most of those arrested were women. Troops patrolled the streets.

The church’s remaining weapon, the boycott. Is gaining a sharper edge with each day of use- Even the press is beginning to feel the effects of withdrawals of advertisements. Merchants no longer conceal their apprehension, for the boycott plus the already bad economic situation promises seriously to affect trade. Meanwhile, a canvass of the Central American and South American diplomatic sections here, made by the United Press, showed a majority of diplomats support 'the viewpoint of the Mexican government that the religious controversy is a domestic affair and that other powers have no right to intervene. Two prominent South American diplomats believe that under no circumstances would their governments do anything toward mediation in the controversy, and the entire spirit revealed indicated that other Latin

Americans would be slow to attempt mediation. The fact that such mediation is not imminent emphasized the stale-mate reached in the struggle between church and state. Observers here believe that the situation can only be solved by one of two means, either forcibly by means of the Catholic boycott of luxuries, or through a political solution in ultimate presidential elections. Meanwhile the heat of the controversy, in the capital, at least, is waning, although a constant stream of reports and rumor? concerning minor clashes come from the interior.
