"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. Foreman Gardner, of tin- cabie
spllclng gang, Harrisburg .1 wUh
an emergency kit at midnight and
reached here early in tht morning.

Mayor John K. Royal, who so ve

action in appointing Edwin Murphy and
l.,enas Cope as patrolmen to succeed A.
H. Haines and James Mitchell, signed
the resolution authorizing the charges
yesterday afternoon. The Mayoc* de
clared vigorously against the moTO at
the time, alleging that it wasn't proper
for Commissioner W. H. Lynch to offer
such a resolution without first consult
ing him.
However, Mayor Royal only signed
the measures, he says, as a "ministerial
duty." The Clark act provides this,
and on the margin of the resolution he
has written:
"I sign this under the impression that
it is a ministerial act only."

Troubles Englishmen
By Associated Press
Mexico City, Jan. 14.—Over-zealous
ness on the part of a i ollceman re
sulted yesterday in bringing about a
controversy between the Huerta gov
ernment and that of Great Britain as
represented by Sir Lionel Carden, the
British Minister, regarding the right
of British subjects to maintain an ar
senal for their defense In case of need.
A new consignment of rifles and am
munition was being taken to a build
ing yesterday when a patrolman
noted It.
The patrolmaif reported his discov
ery to the police department and a
squad of police took charge of the
building. The Britishers who were on
guard over the arms and ammunition
forthwith notified their legation and
Sir Lionel Carden called upon the au
thorities and demanded an explana
tion. The police shortly afterward
were withdrawn.

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.
