"Aw, keep It and sell It for whnt you enn get, I'm hi hurry," said Babe Ruth this morning, after his brand new $5000 car had upset hear Wnwa.

"Babe," his wife ard three "compan ions, Frank Glelch, outfielder; Fred Hoffman, catcher, nud Charles coach, nll'ot tlu Yankees, werq in the machine. The big car fell in a clay bank near tiie road.

This and tho fact that the top was up saved the five from being crushed. All were able to crawl out, and all left later for New York by Tho accident occurred near the home of Coates Colemnu. Philadelphia tobacconist, about GOO feet from the road. "Babe" and his party found refuge In Mr. Coleman house, wlicre their injuries were given temporary care.

On Way to New York "Rabc" was on his way from Wash-Incton. where his team played yester day, to New York. Tho Yankees do not play today, and Ruth had decided to motor up from Washington in his resplendent new car. He enme over the Baltimore turnpike, which Is a smooth, cement road at this point. Ho was nt tho wheel and his wifo was sittinc be side him, his three friends being in the tonneau.

"I was nslcen." snld Mc. "when the grinding of Ruth's brakes awakened mc. rom the noise 1 judge lii must have been coinc nrctt.v fnst. There is very bad turn at this point in tho pike.

BAB RUTH DODGES 'A- AA- tW MAYOR FOR VETO OF 'Strongly Doprecatos HliFounded Criticism That Places Council in Falso Light' ROPER-AND BURCH JOIN IN HIS STAND IN COUNCIL Hall, Angered by Blocking of Appropriation, Accuses Mooro of 'Peanut Politics' Mayor Mooro was taken to task at this afternoon's session of Council by one of the strongest of the administration men, Councilman Dcvcllu. Tho criticism of the Mayor by one of his own adherents was because of the executive's veto of the bill introduced by Mir. Devolln to give a franchise to Broad street bus line.

Two other administration men Councllmcn Burch nnd Roper concurred In the criticism of tho Mayor's uso of his ycto power. Mr. Dcvelln'rcad his statement, as follows "The Mayor totally misreads and has put a wrong construction upon some of the fundamental pnrts of tbo ordinance. The first error consists in the reiteration that the company is to give only for the privilege of using Broad street in face of the fact that the company agreed to pay per cent of It gross receipts. $7500 Minimum Payment "It is clearly stated beyond any possibility of doubt that $7300 is the minimum to be paid.

"It is difficult to understand the entire confusion of the Mayor in inter preting sections ten and eleven, ns their language seems to be perfectly clear. They are both intended for the protection of the city. Section ten provides for the restating of the terms of the agreement at the end of ten years if the city should conclude it could make better bargain with anbthcr company, which would of course Include the taking over of the physical property of the old company, so that In till? contingency the city would not have to take the property at all, although technically tho title would pass through the city into the new company. "Section 11, is pointed out ns only to be used in the event thnt public necessity should require the cessation of the use qf tho.Btrec.tr-ond of this city is to be'the sole judge. "Thcr total franchise in this ordinance is for the maximum limit of fifteen years, and is the shortest ttnio that any company would consider, and If that is further lessened nt the instance of the city fairness requires that some 'provision should be made for relieving the company of its "physical property at a fair valuation.

"No Quarrel With Mayor" "I have no quarrel with the Mayor, and I would willingly defer to his better judgment if he should rest his disapproval of tho ordinance, upon the ground that it is inexpedient to allow the public to use Broad street because of the crowded condition of traffic on that thoroughfare or otherwise but I strongly deprecate Ill-founded criticism that places the Council in a false light with tho public." Councllmcn Roper nnd Burch con-curred In Mr. Dovclin's statement. Mr. Burch said the Mayor's statement bad been "horribly garbled." Mr. Roper said tho Mnyor'j.

criticism was not merited. Mayor Moore was threatened with the penalty of "being wiped out ns the head of the party" by Charles 11. Hall. Varc leader. This dire fato would nvcrtake the Major, Mr.

Hall promised, unless the latter desisted froni "playing peanut politics." Tho Mayor was excoriated by Hall during thcTdcbate on the Mayor's message' vetoing nn item in nn appropriation ordinance. Tho Item culled for $7500 for tho department of the recorder of deeds to pay extra clerk hire. The Major vetoed the Item nlone of numerous Items appropriating money for various city and county departments, nnd offered ns his reason for doing so tbn fact that the uso of the money was not set out In detail, and therefore the item violated the new city charter. Calls Situation Unfortunate nurlne tho debato Mr. Hall said: "It is unfortunnto for tho city that tho Mayor performs and continues to perform these acts of peanut politics.
