2 "LONG DISTANCE" FIRE MAKES TROUBLE Crossed Wires at Hagerstown Cripples Telephone Serv ice at Waynesboro SfrciiU io Tht Teltgrafh Waynesboro, Pa., Jan. 14. —An elec tric light wire In Hagerstown caused a "long distance" fire In the big cable box of the Bell Telephone Company at the corner of Potomac avenue and Alley No. 1 South here on Monday night. A wire carrying a large Quantity of electricity, but not of a high voltage, fell across a telephone wire in Ha gerstown, Md., and the electricity ■kipped to the telephone wire and rushed through it to Waynesboro. Here It entered the cable box and blew out the fuse. The operator in the local exchange promptly notified Manager W. J. C. Jacobs and Wire Chief John Wyncoop. Mr. Wyncoop climbed the high pole and opened the cable box, when a mass of flames burst forth. Efforts to extinguish the Are were at once begun. Inspector Thompson passed up to Mr. AVyncoop a quantity of sand, but this did not accomplish the purpose. Then two of the com pany's fire extinguishers were carried to the top of the pole, but to no avail, and it wes necessary to get out several lines of hose belonging to the Mechan ics Fire Company before the blaze was extinguished. Sixty lines, carrying more than 200 telephones east of Potomac avenue and South Main street, were thrown out of service. Manager Jacobs notified G. R. Keim, plant chief. Chambersburg. and the general offices in Harrisburg. Action was quick on the part of these offi cials.

POULTON now at 307 toarket St. PHIl"y V,UNCH PRESIDENT HOPES TO HAVE CONGRESS ACT [Continued From First Page] for industrial peace, it was said, rather than to wage war on big business. The keynote of the President's policy will be that the great business interests of the country are acting in good faith in their assurances of in tention to conform to laws now on the status books affecting interstate trade and commerce. In this belief the President desires that they shall be met in a conciliatory spirit intended to reduce fears that the contemplated legislation will be based on the theory that they should be shown no con sideration. All the intelligence that has been trickling from those close to the Ad ministration recently, to the effect that the President was of the opinion that it would be a mistake for Congress to harass corporations, was confirmed and emphasized to-day. President's Attitude Some of the senators after the hear ing said that an interstate trade com mission with limited powers to as sist the courts in carrying out decrees of dissolution would be created. They all appwared certain too that' legisla- tion prohibitng interlocking' director ates would bo put through, that pen alties would be imposed in every case upon individuals and that personal guilt would be distinctly fixed. The President is understood to have pointed out that it was necessary to remove all doubt as to what consti tuted a restraint of trade, believing that public sentiment no longer was that restrains of trade could be rea sonable. It is hoped to have trust legislation out of the way by June. It was desirable to treat the problem with a feeling of friendliness and co operation rather than of radical an tagonism, the President said. Vice-President Marshall, D. W. Sohn, who attended last night's meet ing, Dale Meals and other members of the club confirmed Dr. Douglas' statement. Colds Cause Headache and Grip LAXATIVE imOMO QUININE tablets remove cause.
