TUESDAY EVENING,
I RAILROAD NEWS
START NIGHT SCHOOL
FOH RAILROAD MEN
Will Give Ambitious Opportunity
to Improve Selves and Bet
ter Their Conditions
The educational booster meeting:
held at the P. R. R. Y. M. C. A. this
city last evening was a big success.
The instituting of the night school in
connection with Y. M. C. A. work in
this city is new, but the enthusiasm
demonstrated by the seventy-flve or
more young men and men present
last evening Indicates in strongest
terms that the movement is finding
favor with the various railroad em
ployes and their sons in this vicinity.
The meeting was opened by C. H.
Mendenhall, chairman of the educa
tional committee, who Introduced to
the audience W. B. McCaleb, superin
tendent of the Philadelphia division,
Pennsylvania railroad, and chairman
of the advisory committee of the P.
R. R. Y. M. C. A. Mr. McCaleb spoke
briefly and to the point, stating that
In hla experience in railroad work he
has come in contact with many men
who would have been better off with
more education, and particularly
along those lines which It is the pur
pose of the educational department to
introduce. He stated that this was
the first time he had ever attended a
meeting of this character in the Y. M.
C. A. at Harrisburg. but that he hoped
the movement would be a success,
and that to that end it would have
his hearty support, as well as that, in
directly, of the Pennsylvania Railroad
Company. . . , „
Professor W. S. Steele, principal of
the Central High School, was next in
troduced. He spoke very entertain
ingly of the work at the institution
of which he is the head, and while,
as he said, the work there differs in
many respects from the work about
to be done In the new educational de
partment of the Y. M. C. A., neverthe
less the term education is all toward
tho same end and means the same to
all, for a classical education and a
commercial education all tend to the
same purpose.—training.
George V. Landis, State secretary
of P. R. R. Y. M. C. A. educational
work, was the next speaker. He said
that in a short time the work of the
Harrisburg branch would be equal to
that which has been founded in other
cities. He said that to be successful
to-day it is absolutely imperative that
one know as much as is possible for
him to obtain, for the increasing pos
sibilities make this necessary. He
called the attention of the audience
to the fact that but a few years ago
the wide awake men of the day who
talked the subject of railroads and
telegraphy were laughed at and yet
to-day, he stated, these are common
factors in our civilization.
Plan of the School
The plan of the school, as ex
plained by the chairman, is to hold
sessions from 7:30 to 9 p. m. on Mon
day, Wednesday and Fridays of each
week In class rooms provided at the
association building for that purpose.
The subjects to be taught will include
stenography, typewriting, English,
spelling, letter writing, commercial
and mechanical arithmetic, and the
uses and operation of office mechan
ical devices such as adding and cal
culating machines, mimeograph and
so on. This entire course will be given
to members of the association for a
very small fee to nonmembers for a
slightly larger fee.
Personal instruction will *>e given
so that a student may advance as
quickly as his ability permits. The
enrollment will not only be confined
entirely to' those who are eligible to
membership in the P. R. R. Y. M. C.
A., but also to those holding tickets
HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH
in the Central Y. M. C. A. of this city
or any other branch of the Y. M. C.
A. where the school is not established.
Twenty-five students were enrolled
and it is the purpose of the commit
tee to commence operations on Jan
uary 16.

FAILS WITH COMMISSION
By Associated Press
Washington, Jan. 6. —The Inter

POLICE MOVEMENT
PROMISED SIEaTDN
Central Station May Be Established
With Telephone and
Light System
A discussion as to how to improve
the present Inefficient police depart
ment, took up the greater part of la«t
night's meeting of the Steelton coun
cil. As a result several plans were
suggested and action was taken which
it is believed will bring some sort of
efficiency to this department. On the
motion of Councilman Nelly,
chairman of the police com
mittee. the otflce of lockup keep
er. an otflce which carries a salary of
S2OO annually and large feeß, was held
open. It is the suggestion of Councll
mnn Nelly that a central station be
titted up and that a desk officer at a
salary of SSOO a year be employed.
A system of telephones nnd lights
will be installed, if the plans of the
chairman of the police committee are
carried out in full, which will enable
the desk officer and the patrolmen
out on their beats to lie in constant
communication with each other.
The necessity for some Immediate
action that shows efficiency in Chief
Longnaker's next report, was brought
to the attention of the cotincllmen
when T. T. McEntee, the retiring bur
gess, read his final report. In this re
port, which dealt almost entirely with
the police, the retiring burgess strove
manfully to give Chief Longnaker's
department a clean bill of health. He
martyrized himself by attempting to
take the blame for the present Ineffi
ciency of the police force upon him
self, saying "Chief Longnaker and his
department has always worked in en
tire harmony with me and under my
instructions."
Something Has to lie Done
Following Mr. McEntee's report the
report of Chief Longnaker was taken
up. It was a short report. It was
this report of the chief himself that
impressed the oouncilmen with the
necessity of making some immediate
efforts to improve the department.
Chief Longnaker reported that
within the past year two murders were
committed in the borough. One of
these murderers, the report boasted,
was captured on the spot. The re
port however omitted to state that the
arrest was made by Joseph H. Gore,
private detective. The last murderer,
Steve Loncar, the chief reported, has
outwitted the department a.nd escaped.
Continuing the chief said he was will
ing to rest upon his record and that
he didn't want to be egotistic but
thought that his subordinates should
get their share of the "praise" that Is
being showered upon the department.
During the first year, 1909, that Long
naker was chief, according to his re
port, 138 arrests were made. The de
partment began to become more in
efficient each year till the low water
mark was reached in 1012, when only
forty-eight arrests were made. In
1910, seventy-five arrests were made;
in 1911, sixty -four; in 1912, forty
eight; in 1913, the year just closed,
sixty-four were made.
Chief Longnaker further reported
that during his term of four years he
had been instrumental in collecting for
the borough in licenses of all kinds,
pole, amusement, hunter, dog, etc.,
the sum of $4,720.26, or about $1,200 a
year. In sharp contrast to this amount
is the salary paid to the chief and his
department. These salaries amounted
last year to $4,335 or over $3,000 more
than the total amount of fines, license
fees, etc., collected by the department.
This report in the opinion of many,
proves the inefficiency of Chief Long
naker and his department.
Officers are Elected
The report was followed by the elec
tion of the borough officers. All the
present officers were re-elected with
the exception of the lockup keeper, an
office formerly held by the borough
secretary. When it came to the selec
tion of a chief of police some hesita
tion was shown. Finally Councilman
Nelly nominated Longnecker and his
selection was affirmed. There were
no other candidates for the office.
In commenting on the re-election
of Longnaker as chief of police, Fred
Wigfield, the new burgess who went
into office last evening said that Long
naker's selection was merely on a
ninety-day trial. , "If there is no effi
ciency in the department at the end
of that time," Burgess Wigfield assert
ed, "I shall certainly recommend the
dismissal of the chief of police."
The two new councilmen who took
the oath of office last evening were
Fred Wagenbaugh, from the Third
ward, and Charles Keisch, of the Fifth
ward. As soon as the meeting was
called to order the minutes of the two
preceeding special meetings were read,
and several ordinances were passed
on second reading. The ordinance re
quiring stop cocks on gas lines outside
the curb line was laid over on a mo
tion of Councilman Capella.
With Councilman Lewis taking the
chair. President Reynders, chairman
of the finance committee, read his re
port. The total receipts of the bor
ough for the year were $114,250 and
the dis'nurseemnts were $111,360 or a
gain of $2,890. Following the read
ing of the report councils volunteered
a vote of thanks to Mr. Reynders and
his committee for the careful financ
ing of the borough.
The board of health asked for an
extra appropriation of $705.20 to de
fray the expense of caring for small
pox patients. The appropriation was
granted. , . ,
Reynders Re-electgd
On a motion of Councilman Black
well, retiring Third ward councilman,
the old council adjourned and the new
one proceeded to organize. J. V. W.
Reynders was re-elected president
with an unanimous vote; Charles Hol
ton was elected clerk to council, C. 1.
Feidt, borough secretary; Leroy Sut
ton, treasurer and all the old officers
were elected unanimously.
Straws were drawn to decide which
of the recently elected councilmen
should take the long and which the
short terms. Councilmen Nelly and
Stees of the Third ward, caused a lit
tle merriment by playing the Alphon
so-Gaston act, both wanting their co -
eague to take the longer term. lMnal
ly President Reynders ruled that
straws were to be drawn to decide the,
question. Councilman Stees got the
short straw —and term in the first
ward. Councilmen Capella and Zim
merman drew the other two year
terms, giving four year terms to Coun
cilmen Nelly, Sellers and Reisch. On
a motion of Councilman Reisch, a new
member, council adjourned.
MIDDLET'N COUNCIL ORGANIZES

which the five were picked up—con
tained eleven when it got away. Six
were drowned after the craft had re
peatedly capsized. When they were
finally taken aboard the Gregory their
condition was pitiable.
Both boats wore in extreme peril
from the moment they were lowered
over the sinking ship's side. The seas
smothered them; the racing screws,
which they barely missed, threatened
to smash the boats to matchwood.
As they drifted away—soon to be
separated—they saw Captain Cunter
and others amidship on the Oklahoma.
The five rescued knew nothing of his
fate until they reached New York and
were surprised to learn that he and
seven others had been saved by the
Bavaria.
About 1.30 p. m. the Gregory hove
In sight. They made frantic signals
and rowed toward her. Eleven men
were still In the boat at that time.
Nearing the steamer the boat capsized
and all were thrown into the icy wa
ter. They succeeded In righting her
and all, nearly frozen, painfully climp
ed in again. This happened again and
again and by the time they got along
side the Gregory all were on the
verge of collapse. Almost at the Gre
gory's side the craft again went over.
This time six sank, never to appear
i again.
The Gregory had now lowered a
boat which cruised aiiout searching
for the lost. No one was found. The
five survivors, barely conscious, were
taken on board and placed in care of
the ship's surgeon. He worked over
them heroically and it was hoped to
day that all would recover, although
the suffering they went through left
thorn weakened and shaken.
The boat was only seven miles from
the wreck when the five were picked
up. The steamer cruised about for
some time searching for the other
boat but no trace of it could be found.
As a last resort the Gregory steamed
close up to the sinking Oklahoma but
could see no one abo.rd. She then
made for New York and having no
wireless equipment could give no re
port of the part she played of the
disaster until she reached quaran
tine.
