CLERK ItKFUNDH DAY'S PAT.
Tho most sensational turn of yesterday
was tho announcement that Professor J.
Louis Sowers, of Gettysburg, a clerk In
the 'Workmen's Compensation Board,
which Is under tho Department of Labor
and Industry, had been forced to circu
late a. petition much against his will. In

It Is said that Sowers demurred and
even went to see Commissioner John Price
Jackson, of tho Department of Labor and
Industry. Ho agreed to hlro somebody to

.agreed to, but evidently he could not find
a sultablo person, and ho was then "in

WORKERS DIE Ofl ANTHRAX
Two Stricken by Dread Diseaso in
Handling Germ-Laden Skins
From Abroad
Two men, formerly employed by wool
and leather firms, and ndmltted to tho
Municipal Hospltnl a few days ngo, died
from nnthrax, according to announcement
today by Dr. A. A. Calms, chief medical
Inspector. He asserted that both men
were stricken while handling diseased
hides.
Tho victims are James McCautey, "bf
1855 Umbrla street, Manayunk, and Alex
ander Grcmerk, of 4336 Stiles street.
The disease was contracted through an
abrasion on the faces of the men In both
Instances. Dcsplto the fact that strums
from Itnly, the only known cure, wero
Used, the malady, which proves fatal in
tnoro than half tho cases, could not bo
checked.
According to Doctor Cairns, about
twelve cases of anthrax develop annually
In Philadelphia. Four deaths already have
occurred tho present yenr from tho dlB
ease. Doctor Cairns blamed tho lax Im
portation lnw, which allows anthrax germ
laden hides to be brought Into this coun
try, with disinfection as tho only re
quirement, for the presence of tho malady.

refused to consider tho contest tiled
against the election of tho 7th Ward dele

primaries Is charged. The committee vote
was D to 3.
By vote of 23 to 17. tho Wilmington City
delegation Indorsed State Chairman Mitch

Miller In tho city.
Governor Miller's friends withdrew
from the caucus, announcing that thev

of the caucus. They went out with the
Intention of renewing their fight on the
floor of tho convention, being encouraged
by tho support promised by rural Now

NEGRO CAUSES STIR.
"Dick" Craig, a South Wilmington
negro politician, "started something" In
tho caucus by Insisting on a negro repre

However, ho and other negroes con

LONDON FEARS FOR SAFETY
OF TROOPS TENT AT KUT
Gcnoral Townshond Immured for
Four Months Supplies Dwindle
LONDON, April 11.
Increasing fears wcro felt hero today
for the safety of General Townshcnd'a
forco of 10 000 troops besieged by tho
Turks at Kut-el-Amara, In Mesopotamia.
Townshend has now been cooped In by
tho Turks for exactly four months, and It
Is believed his dwindling supplies nro
rapidly reaching the point of exhaustion,
Ofllclftl dispatches report tho failure of
tho relief expedition to brenk through tho
Turkish ring and Indicated that floods
are seriously hampering tho advance of
the relief forces.
Council todnv will pas the bill pro
posing a $17,425,000 loan for gencml mu
nicipal Improvements, maintenance nnd
deficiency bills, ns well ns that proposing
a port and transit loan of $07,100,000, If
tho plans of tho Varo-Smtth faction In
both brnnches do not meet with unex
pected"' opposition. Tho measures, signify
ing tho Intention to Increase tho city's
bonded Indebtedness by $114,525,000, re
quire but a majority vote, which should
be obtained without difficulty.
Friends of the lonn bills, which mean Bo
much to the Administration, this morning
freely predicted that both measures will
pass without a dissenting vote. They
pointed to tho fact that all who opposed
thn bills in their passage through the
Finance Ccmmltteo finally sanctioned tho
measures.
Opposition from tho 22 West Philadel
phia f'ouncllmcn, bnnded together to try
to obtain concessions for their section,
which Is virtually Ignored In tho gen
eral loan, Is not counted on to develop Into
n serious situation In Councils, no matter
what effect It has on the fortunes of tho
general loan when that measure Is sub
mitted to tho voters.
It Is an open secret that tho I'enrose
McNIehol leadors plan to work for the de-
I feat of tho general loan, which they have
increased to tho limit of tho city borrow
ing capacity, In the hope of making it
top-heavy enough to meet opposition.
Mayor Smith will be Impoi tuned today by
the West Philadelphia delegation to grant
at least a part of tho $2,020,000 they havn
asked for street and sewer Improvements
nnd additions and Improvements to Cobb's
Creek Park.
In tho not Improbable event of Mayor
Smith's declining to interfere In the In
terests of West Philadelphia, opponents
of the general loan Intend making a
campaign In that section of tho city
lying west of tho Schuylkill River with
a view of Imperiling the general loan at
the polls.
At today's session Chairman Gnffncy,
of tho Finance Committee, will Introduco
a bill providing approximately $20,000 to
cover tho cost of printing ballots to
carry tho separate loan bills before tho
voters. The printing of ballots Is the
only expense of any consequence to be
Incurred incident to the loan election, ns,
unless obstacles arise, it will be advertised
at once nnd tho bills will be placed before
tho voters at tho presidential primaries
next month. The rost of a special election
to lncrcaso tho city's borrowing capac

saved if everything Is shlpslinpo for the
voters by May 10.

In Mr. Caccavajo's own words, that
tho conclusions In the nrtlclo which

Repentance should never take the form
of remorse, according to the Rev; Dr.
Samuel McComb In a Lenten sermon to
day at St. Stephen's Church. "The popu
lar Idea of repentance," said Doctor Mc
Comb, "Is that It la a feeling of sorrow
for sin. This feeling may deepen Into tha
anguish of remorse. But remorse under
mines the will and paralyzes the moral
energy. Sometimes It Injures the brain
and leads to Insanity and suicide. True
repentance should form the basjs for
new living."

CONCEALING WOWD'S EVIL
NOT CUKINfl, SAYS MINISTER
Dr. A, B. Mcintosh Gives Advice to
Lenten Worshipers
"The world Is diseased." How to cure
some of its diseases was the subject of
a discussion today by tho Rev. A. II. Mac
intosh, of Trinity Church, Norrlstown, who
bpoke at tho noonday Lenten service In old
St John's Lutheran Church, Race street
below Gth.
"There has never been tho slightest
difficulty In perceiving that there Is some
thing out of kelter In tho world," said
Doctor Macintosh. "A brain of very small
calibre can readily discern that. Many
men set themselves up as expert diagnos
ticians in telling us Just what Is wrong.
One says that man's highest nature has
simply been enslaved by his lower nature.
And here comes another who says that In
herent selfishness Is the curso of tb' world.
Stilt another lays the trouble to the fact
that men have become so enamored of
this world that they have neither time
nor thought for the higher and better
world.
'The doctors Beem to disagree and yet
they are all correct They all find the
same disease. Sensuality, selfishness,
worldllness these are all slightly differ
ent things, and yet they all belong to the
same family, sin.
"But how about finding a remedy? Eng
land used to pack oft her criminals to
far-distant shores. Get them out of our
sight and they will trouble us no more,
was her thought. She tried by this means
to forget all about them, and succeeded
very well. It was good riddance for Eng
land, but rather hard on the criminals,
for whom hope became a forgotten woid.
"Sins, enemies, troublesome problems,
all, send them away. That la man's pre
scription. But Is It God'a prescription?"
