Deaths of Babies More Nu
merous Than Last Year
Despite Crusade Against
Evils 4740 the Total.
Infant mortality records for Philadel
phia during the last nine months show
an Increase of deaths of babtcs less than
one and two years old over the samo
period for 1913, In spite of the active
effort of the Health Department and al
lied private organizations to reduce the
infant death rate.
There were 4740 deaths of babies less
than two years old reported from all
causes during the last nine months, or
174 mora than the samo period In 1313,
when 4466 Infant deaths were reported.
This year SMI of that number wore loss
than ono year old, and last year 3637 of
the total number were under one ear.
Those figures were compiled by Dr.
George H. Bchuman, statistician for the
Department of Health and Charities.
Although the figures apparently show
an Increase In Infant mortality. It Is
pointed out that a rigid analysis might
llsclose that the death rate of Infants
shows a decrease per thousand of pop
ulation under the same ratio of previous
years. Accurate figures on the city's
additional population In 1914, gained by
families moving Into tho city as well as
by births, arc not available until the
next census.
The average temperature this year was
lower than In 1913, and great advanced
have bcon mado In baby-saving efforts,
which faotors are declared to have kept
down the death rate to a considerable
degree.
Summer complaint continues to cause
the greatest number of Infant death'.
There were 1366 died from that causo
alono this year, and 10K of that number
died during the months of July, August
and September. During the first nine
months last year 11ST babies died from
summer complaint.
Deaths of babies less than I years In
1314 and In 1913, from other causes, were:

WORK WILL BE RESUMED ON
35-FOOT CHANNEL TO SEA
Official Notification Given of $1,
000,000 Award From Government.
Work of giving the harbor of Phila
delphia a 35-foot channel to the sea, tem
porarily fluspenrted pending the allotmont
of the rivers and harbors appropriation,
will now be pushed vigorously by Colonel
George A. Zlnn, chief of the army
engineers employed on Improvement here.
Official notification of the award of
tl.0fO.WO to this port was received yester
day. In conjunction with Colonel Zlnn's
work, the Knglneers' Department will be.
rln Immediately to improve the Christiana
River, the harbor of Wilmington, for
which $30,000 was appropriated.
The dredges Delaware, Manhattan and
Cataract will be sent to work on the
maintenance of the present 30-foot chan
nel, while contracts and specifications are
drawn up for the work on the 35-foot
channel. The dikes necessary to maintain
the deeper channel at Tteedy Island, Old
Man's Point and Chester Island are now
being completed.
Maritime interests of the port are hope
ful that the next Congress will make a
special appropriation of nnother million
dollar-j to replace the million authorized
for contracts stricken out of th lat
rivers nnd harbors hill This Is absolutely
necespary to push the work of giving the
port the 35-foot channel, so badly needed.
Camden also expects to have appropria
tions mode by the next Congress for the
Improvement of her waterfront. Army i
engineers have recommended the expendi
ture of jss.ono for the purpose, of which
the city Is to contribute fl5,0H0.
PERMANENT INDUSTRIAL AND
COMMERCIAL SHOW PLANNED
"Made in America" Exhibit Would
Be Part of Exposition.
A "Made In America" exhibit will be
a first-year feature of the permanent in
dustrial and commercial exposition In
Philadelphia If plans for the establish
ment of such an Institution are success.
fuL William H. Carpenter, president of
the Union National Rank, of this city;
Theodore II. Conderman, vice president of
the Philadelphia Fire Association, and S.
8. Marvin, president of the Pennsylvania
Chocolate Company, comprise the com
mittee back of the project, and they fee!
the Institution, particularly with such an
opening feature, will be of tremendous
educational and economic value to the
cit.
The plan of the committee is to follow
as c!ose,y as possible the permanent In
dustrial and commercial exposition of
Pittsburgh, which is now celebrating Its
2Sth year of successful operation, having
in that time been self-supporting through
admission fees and the sale of exhibition
apace to industrial concerns, and acquired
$1,000,000, which has been applied to the
erection of new buildings and the Im
provement of grounds.
The committee has approached Mayor
Rlankenburg and outlined Its plans,
telling him that the cost of building?
would be between $l,00u,0CO and J2.W.M0,
and suggesting that the city grant land
for the operation near Memorial Hall. In
Fair mount Park. In return for the grant
of land, or its rental at a nominal figure,
they propose that the institution Issue an
nually a free ticket of admission to each
school child in the city. This, it is point
ed out, would be of great value to the
children, as it would Instil in them at an
early age an interest in the Industrial
and economic activity of thtlr natlte
land.
The project, if launched, will be with,
out financial return to those who head
the exhibition, the only paid office In the
list being that of a manager, who will
devote bis entire lime and attention to
the success of the operation Any profits
realized will be cat aside for improving
and enlarging the original buildings or
tUe erection of new ones, while it is hoped
that a subscription Use containing about
WW name wdl be the means of raising
binds for the Initial cost of building.
MILLIONS IN GRAFT
"CHARGED TO PENROSE
METHODS IN STATE
William Draper Lewis and
Vance C. McCormick De
nounce Machine Spoilsmen
in Speeches to Working-men.
Charges of graft reaching far up Into
tho millions were laid at tho door of
Senator Penrose by William Draper icwls
and Vance C. Mt-Cormlck, the latter
Democratic and Washington Party can
dldtac for Governor, who addressed
workers from the Dhston Saw Works at
Taocny today. Mr. l,ewls declared that
out of every dollar appropriated for tho
Improvement of roails In this State, at
least CO per rent, of It went to tho Re
publican Organization, of which Penrose
Is the head.
Workers begrimed with the dust of
hours of toll gathered by the hundred at
Venn nnd Wlsslnomlng streets to hear
the orators. Teh applauso was frequent
during each of the speeches, nnd nt their
conclusion tho men gave a rousing cheer
Mr. leils spoke llrst. He pointed out
bills of vital Interest to every worker In
the State which he said had been killed
by Penrose and his gang. Among these
were tho child labor bill, the women's
minimum wage bill and tho workmen's
compensation bill. "These are of In
terest to ou," said tho speaker. "They
mean protection to you and to your chll-
dren nnd they have gone down to dc- I
fent at the hands of the very man in
whom you put your trust. You have i
been betrayed, and do not think for a I
minute the same thing will not happen
again." i
Mr. Lewis cited the roads throughout i
Xew York State as some of tho finest In
the country today. It costs tho State of
New York about JSOOO a mllo for those
roads," he said, ' but In Pennsylvania,
whorn the roads nro not nearly so per
fect, w are obliged to pay from $14,000
to $24,000 a. mil."
CHICKEN CAUSES NEAR-PANIC
IN CROWDED TROLLEY CAR
Incidentally Causes Escort's Arrest.
Leaves Egg in Policeman's Helmet.
An Innocent chicken caused a near
panic on a Moyamenslng avenue trolley
car this morning and was the means
of landing her escort In Jail. She was
decked out In the latest style as far as
plumago was concerned, and went readily
with Parker Stewart, of 60th and Upland
streets, when he met her at a butcher
shop In that neighborhood.
But before boarding the trolley car,
Stewart, according to the police, stopped
to havo a few drinks. And he brought
the chicken along. Finally the chicken
started to complain, and on being re
minded that u car was coming, Stewart
ran for It. By good luck more than good
Judgment he landed on tho rear plat
form on his knees.
Tho passengers expressed rather anrt
lble opinions of Stewart and the chicken,
but as he was rather tired he dropped
off to sleep. Not so the chicken. She
began to cackle and squirm and finally
attempted to attack a man who sat op
posite. Th chicken would have been
successful but for a rope which was tied
around her ankle. The chicken, the man,
the rope and finally the conductor and
Stewart himself became literally entan
gled In nn argument which caused sev
eral passengers to desert the car.
Policeman Jordan was standing on a
corner when tho carload of fighting pas
sengers flashed by him. An automobile
happened alon-r. and Jordan. Jumping Into
it, pursued the runaway fight. Hn caught
up with the car after a chase of three
squares, and extricating Stewart brought
him to the pollen station ut ISth and Rlt
ner streets. And he brought the chicken
along. Stewart was placed In a cell,
while the chicken was put in the lieu
tenant's room. She slept comfortably In
a policeman's helmet until the time for
the hearing. Then she complained so long
and so loud that Magistrate Brlggs dis
charged Stewart for the sake of peace.
Stowart walked out triumphantly and
soberlv and brought the chioken along.
An egg later was found In th helmet.

A misunderstanding as to where he
should appear, caused a postponement to
day in the case of Thomas Dowd, S15
North Mth street, an Inspector In the

arranged before Magistrate Campbell, at
the Front and Westmoreland streets sta
tion, susplcloned with larceny. He went

Dowd is accused by Mrs. Martha Eberle,
IK Wlllard street, of stealing a ring from
her home during the latter part of Sep
tenVber. He was arrested on September S

New York Globe,
DEAN LOSES HIS $1600
ROLL AFTER FALSE ALARM
Recovers Money He Thought Stolen,
But It Again Vanishes.
The last chapter of a $1000 roll of bills,
once the property of Stewart Dean, West
Conshohocken, Pa., was written In letters
of blue early today. The blue, Mr. Dean
states, means that the roll has disap
peared. Just how the money took Its departure
Is not exactly clear to Its former owner,
who thinks he might havo been robbed,
and again there Is a possibility that ho
"Just threw It away." This Is what ho
told police of the Twentieth and Button
wood streets station this morning.
It will be remembered by thoso who
have followed Mr. Dean's career for tho
Inst two days, that ho came to town os
tensibly to buy a motortruck. In his
left hand trousers pocket was $1600 in
bills. Thrust carelessly on top of this
were two handkerchiefs. Dean said he
kept the money In his left hand pocket so
as not to confuse It with about $30 spend
ing money he had In a pocket on tho
other side.
Unfortunately, circumstances prevented
a try-out of the motortruck on Tuesday,
and Dean snld he would see the sights
in tho mennwhile. He saw them. Harly
yesterday morning a bartender at Eighth
and Arch streets turned Dean over to
a policeman jlth the remark, "The guy
says he's been frisked."
Several hours later, when Denn was In
a calmer frame of mind, he discovered
his money intact burled deep beneath
Its double layer of handkerchiefs. He
told the police he must have been mis
taken and was put on a train at Broad
Street Station and sent home.
Mr. Dean did not go all the way to
West Conshohocken. He alighted from
the train at West Philadelphia.
Later he wa found by a watchman
wandering about the American Ice Com
pany plant, at Ilth and Callowhlll streets,
again In tears over the loss of his money.
This time his fears proved correct. To
the police of tho Mth nnd Buttonwood
streets station, Dean said he remembered
telling a ohanco acquaintance in a tender
loin saloon of his wealth, but does not
remember much 3fter that, except pulling
out the handkerchief covering his monej
to wave at a passing street car. "Per
haps the money fell out then," he said.
HORSES TO SAIL FROM PORT
Will Be Used for Service in British
and French Armies.
Hundreds of horses for the use of the
British and French armies will be sent
out of this port, according to a report
circulating today In shipping circles. The
rumor la founded upon the secrecy sur
rounding the chartering of several ves
sels. Details of the transactions are be
ing kept from the public.
Should horses be sent from hre it will
mark the first shipment of Its kind for
three years. Several years ago cattle
boats sailed regularly from this port,
but two years ago they were discontinued
because of the cessation of exports of
live stock.
