RAILROAD COMPANY AFTER MALICIOUS- LY INCLINED INDIVIDUALS.—When the Pennsylvania railroad company two years | ago improved the Bald Eagle Valley road from Mt. Eagle to Howard they built two subways at the former place in order to obviate the danger of grade crossinze | The old grade crossings were then fenced with wire fencing. It appears that to cross through one of the subways in- creased the distance about 160 feet over the old grade crossing and this some res- idents of that village strongly objected to. In fact, it is alleged, that on one or two occasions the wire fencing was cut down and that some one maliciously in- clined placed dynamite upon the track and on another occasion a’ Vulcan rail creeper. Fortunately both were found before any damage was done. The WATCHMAN this week got infor- mation of the fact that since May 14th, the railroad company has had three de- tectives on the job and they have glean- ed some very damaging evidence against certain parties living in that vicinity. One of the detectives boarded at How- ard and worked as an ordinary laborer. Another boarded at Curtin, and likewise did days’ work in that neighborhood. The third man was at Mt. Eagle, having appeared there as the result of an auto- mobile accident, and his supposed mis- haps kept him there until his work was completed. So far as the WATCHMAN has been able to learn the railroad company does not intend bringing any immediate prosecu- tions or make any arrests, but if its property is again interfered with at that place, in any way whatever, arrests will follow immediately, and the information gathered by the detectives, it is alleged, will be sufficient to send a ‘number of men on long terms to prison. In so do- ing the railroad company is not only act- ing in self-protection so far as its own property is concerned, but also safe- guarding the lives of the hundreds of passengers it transports over that line every day. ia ——Robert G. Gilliland has been ap- pointed postmaster at Snow Shoe. —-David Barlett Jr., is in the Belle- fonte hospital suffering with typhoid fever. During his absence John Love is filling his place at the P. R. R. station. —— ——Every day from four to a half doz- en crates of new onions are shipped from the penitentiary farms to Pittsburgh, for use in the old penitentiary at that place, so that even the inmates there have that addition to their daily bill of fare. ——George Coble, Pleasant Gap’s ab- sconding postmaster, who was arrested in Denver, Col., several weeks ago, was sentenced by United States court judge Charles Witmer, at Williamsport this week, to serve six months in the Centre county jail.

Working to Advance Peace. The Impression Is Growing That Ger- many Would Welcome a Movement For Peace From a Neutral Power. Reports that the United States had in various neutral countries to make peace in Europe were said by Presi- dent Wilson to be untrue. The president said the Washington government had done everything that legitimately could be done to encour- age any movement that might lead to peace or an accommodation of inter- ests in Europe. The president said Colonel House, who recently: investigated peace pros- pects in Europe, had not been sent for by him, but he expected to see the colonel soon. At present Colonel House is visiting a daughter in Mas- sachusetts. The impression is growing in Wash- ington that Germany is disposed to look with favor on a tangible move- of the neutral powers, - The attitude of the more moderate of the German newspapers toward the latest Wilson note, the sending of Dr. Anton Meyer-Gerhard to Berlin as the special envoy of Ambassador von Bernstorff, the constant springing up of peace suggestions in various quar- from outside, all point tc a movement believed by some officials to have its source in Germany looking to the time when peace may be more openly discussed among the powers now at war. : It is believed that German officials are pleased witr President Wilson's latest note because they think it af- fords opportunity for further discus- sion, in the course of which other principles involved in the maritime war with Great Britain may be linked with the submarine issue raised by the United States. . All information in official quarters tends to indicate that a positive yes or no answer to the president's de- mands is hardly to be expected from Berlin. According to this, it has al ways been the intention of the Ger- man government to make the discus: ion with the United States the ve- hicle for conveying to the world her propaganda for changing the rules of maritime warfare in such a way as to decrease the value of a sea power such as Great Britain is now exercis- ing. President Wilson was asked just what the changes were to which Wil ! liam Jennings Bryan referred as hav- ing been made in the note to Ger- many after his resignation as secre- | tary of state had been accepted, but the president felt it was best for him not to discuss the resignation or other ! questions connected with it. ~ GERMANS FORCED BACK British Take Positions In Belgium Along Front of 1000 Yards. Sir John French, commander-in- | chief of the British forees on the Con- tinent, reports that the British have captured the German positions to the north of Hooge for a distance of 1000 yards, and that they captured and then Jost a line of German trenches at Fes- tubert. ; Hooge is three miles east of Ypres and Festubert is northwest of La Bassee. General French’s statement is follows: “Barly Wednesday morning in the neighborhood of Ypres we successfully attacked the enemy’s positions north of Hooge. We occupied the whole of his first line of trenches on a front of 1000 yards and also parts of his sec- ond line. “By noon 157 prisoners had passed to our rear. The German counter at- tack has been repulsed with heavy losses. “Wednesday evening we captured the German front line trenches east of Festubert on a mile front, but fail- ed to hold ,them during the night against strong counter attacks. “The enemy exploded five mines on different parts of our frout, but none of these caused any damage to our trenches and only one caused any | casualties.” SHIP TORPEDOED; 22 DROWN | Straithcairne, of Glasgow, Sunk by German Submarine In Irish Channel.
