Beig, who was one of the victims of the disaster, said yesterday that the funeral services for her husband would be held either tomorrow or Wednesday.

At the home of her mother, Mrs. S. Barlow, at Buck road and Haverford avenue, Bryn Mawr, Mrs. Beig explained that, the many details that had to be attended to made it impossible to decide upon the exact day on which the services would be held.

BEAMISH The Mayor of Chinatown hurried to the corner of Ninth and Race streets, where a sudden swirl around a bulky, blue-shirted Cantonese showed the beginning of a Sunday afternoon quarrel. Two policemen assigned to prevent the Sunday holiday from fomenting into trouble did not move from their comfortable seats in the shade of the dilapidated wooden awning fronting the House of a Hundred Rooms. "Ifs only, a little fuss over the weekly returns from some laundry, said the tall policeman. "Old Moy will fix It." Impassive, squatting figures feeding the strutting pigeons did ot even lance in the direction of the clatter. They knew the capacity of Mayor Moy as a peacemaker.

Presently he returned, peace in his wake. "Yon were asking," he said in his Tin ruffled way, "about our plans to have the Republic of South China represented at the Conference for Limitation of Armaments. Come with me to the Chinese Nationalist Leagne of Philadelphia and you will learn our whole case." His black alpaca jacket and trousers fluttered in the afternoon breeze as he led the way to 905 Race street. His strong, bare, round head was a study in bronze topped with ebony and his shrewd humorous eyes beamed eager friendship. His walk was almost a glide on noiseless slippers of cheap lint.

Nothing about him betrayed his wealth, the combined fortune of his brother, who also lives in Philadelphia's Chinatown and himself amounting to more, than a million dollars according to the police. Thirty-two years he has lived in Philadelphia and for more than twenty years has been a dominant figure in Chinatown as head of the importing firm of Pong Chong at 919 Race street. Up three flights, past the tattooing parlor of a former sailor, with walls hung with gorgeous designs of naked women, snakes, full-rigged ships, flags, hearts and flowers, past a closet from which issued a river of coal, past the rlosed door of a Chinese apartment, the Mayor led the way and came at last into the rooms of the Chinese Nationalist League. A kitchen table, covered with an American flag, and a larger table bearing patriotic Chinese pam-phlpts, were surrounded by about fifty collapsible wooden chairs. The Mayor rrooked an imperative forefinger and out of the knot around the tables came T.

C. Liu, secretary of the league. Between him and the Mayor the story of South China's to be heard in Wasbfton in. November was tbld. "TVe htt two Presidents in China," said the Mayor.

"Tu Shi Chong illegally holds office in Pekin which is in North China, and representatives sent by him have been received by the American Government. He and his government are raising money by selling to foreigners the great natural resources of China. Dr. Sun Yat Sen, the legally elected President, whose government centers in Canton, South China, is opposed to giving the country's wealth away. Every Chinaman in Philadelphia yes, in the whole United States stands with Sun Yat Sen.

We want China to be one nation. We wants its' voice heard in Washington." T. C. Liu took up the thread of argument. "That is why we of Philadelphia have sent a strong letter to Secretary of "State Hughes asking that President Sun Yat Sen be permitted to send representatives.

That is why we of Philadelphia have sent a great deal of money to that great leader for the purpose of fighting the wicked work of Tu Shi Chong." "South China will fight Tu Shi Chong to prevent the destruction of China," said the Mayor. He is in secret league with Japan. That country is back of the movement to bar South China from Ihe conference. It is well that the American people should know the truth." He went to, the table and took from it a pamphlet. "Here," he said, "are our twelve arguments for representation at Washington." The pamphlet read in part: "As the Pekin Government cannot speak for the whole of China, and, in fact, cannot carry out any undertakings entered into for the whole of China, is it right or just that South China should not be represented? "Can the American Government afford to have China's participation in the Disarmament Conference a mere farce? "Unless President Sun Yat Sen and the two hundred million people united in the South China republic are invited to send representatives to the conference, China's participation will be a farce and the gravest injustice will result." of rugs as fine as these at prices as low as these is this: The mill that makes these rugs (and it is well known for TKma Ructq Ai-a Pai-f Irnlarlv n.ii-nklV the durability of its product) closed down with a large sup- 1 "CSe iXUgS MXe arUCUiariy UliraDie ply of freshly made rugs on hand.
