HIGHWAYMEN WHO
HELD UP CAR. NOT
ARRESTED AS YET
Police Have No Clue to Identity
of Robbers Who Shot
at Conductor
Up to a late hour this afternoon
the police had found no clue to the
identity of the two highwaymen who
last night attempted to hold up G. H.
Ayle, a conductor on the Fourth and
Sixth streets line of the Ilarrisburg
Railway Company.
The attempted hold-up occurred
shortly after 11 o'clock. Quick ac
tion on the part of Conductor Ayle In
closing the rear door and signaling
his motorman, E. T. Jones, to go ahead
frustrated the highwaymen.
The attempted hold-up was the cul
mination of frequent annoyances at
Sixth and Division streets by a gang
of rowdies who have for weeks been
throwing stones and other missiles at
membersi of the various crews.
Conductor Ayle had changed the
trolley to return to Market Square
last night, when two men approached
the car. Jone3, the motorman, In
the meantnime had gone to the front
of the car to lower tho fender. Lean
ing out to see if any passengers were
coming, Conductor Ayle looked into
the muzzles of two revolvers and one
of the highwaymen ordered the con
ductor to throw up his hands and de
liver the cash.
The second highwayman started to
enter the car when Conductor Ayle
slammed the door hut, and signaled
Motorman Jones to go aeead. The
one highwayman was knocked from
the step. His companion started a
fusillade of bullets at the car and a
bullet hit the center rear window.
Conductor Ayle said he had about ?35
in cash In his pockets. He could not
get a good description or the men be
cause everything happened too
quickly.
HARRISBURG TELEGRXPH!
NEW ASSOCIATION
SEVERELY RAPPED
Milt T. Robinson Shows Flaws in
the Rules; Favor Freight
Rate Increase
Eastern railroad men, representing
every branch of the Brotherhoods, at
tended one of the largest meetings ever
held at Wilmington, Sunday afternoon
and evening, at which Milt T. Robin
son, of Harrisburg, chairman of the
legislative committee of the Brother
hood of Railroad Trainmen, was the
principal speaker.
At both afternoon and evening ses
sions the proposed organization of an
Employes' Mutual Benefit Association
on the Pennsy lines was given a severe
rap and referred to as a move against
the brotherhoods. Chairman Robinson
returned to Harrisburg last evening
and was very enthusiastic over the big
gathering and the reception accorded
the visiting railroaders.
Mr. Robinson said the railroad men
who attended the big meeting were a
unit in favor of a five per cent, freight
increase providing that the profits re
sulting from the increase would not be
paid out in dividends. Referring to the
proposed Mutual Benefit Association
Mr. Robinson said in part:
Grievance Rule Bad
"This organization, according to
those who are being asked to Join It,
will give us an increase in insurance
at a lesser cost If this were t ru ® 'J
would be good, but we all know that
our brotherhoods iiave at times en
abled us to settle grievances. He have
been told that the new organization
will enable us to do this better and also
at less cost. But the constitution pro
vides that the grievances of the en
gineers will be referred to a committee
composed of three engineers and two
officials of the company, perhaps the
roadforcman or the foreman of the
roundhouse Of the trainmen s commit
tee the chairman of the committee
would be the train master or his as
sistant. . .
"I have always been opposed to
tramping down that which has been
organized after a struggle and I know
the railroad company will have trouble
in organizing the proposed department.
While not conversant with all the rules
of this association, I will choose the
fat goose in place of the lean one every
time."

President George F. Hner. In the
course of his brier address to the mem
bers of the Philadelphia &. Reading
Veterans' Association, at the annual
meeting in Philadelphia, Saturday, said
that about every thlnd generation some
theorist makes his appearance and
tells the public that things are not
going right, and thtft a change Is
necessary, The railroads of the coun
try are now experiencing the results.
The theorists, ho stated, are now try
ing to teach men who have spent their
best days In perfecting the big systems
how to improve conditions
The Reading ItallTvny Company has
sold one of its locomotives to several
brokers who own a large plantation
near Havana Cuba. The number of
the engine Is 145.1. It was used for
soma years on the Chester alley and
Catasauqua and Kogelsvllle branches
and later in the Reading yard. It was
rebuilt in the local shop and the parts
boxed for shipment. The engine will
be used in hauling materials, truck and
sugar cane.
Coinpnre With Statist leu for the cor
responding date in 1913, there was a
marked Increase in the number of sur
plus freight cars on railroad lines
throughout the country on January 15.
according to the American Railway
Association Service Bulletin. The re
port shows there were 217,274 idle
cars on January 15, an increase over

NINETY-ONE ARE
KILLED ON RAILS
Unusual Figures Issued by the
State Public Service Com
mission Today
Ninety-one persons were killed and
758 injured on the railroads of Penn
sylvania and 2 3 killed and 230 Injured
on the trolley lines of the Btate dur
ing the month of December, according
to the date for the month Just com
piled by the division of accident in
vestigation of the Public Service Com
mission.
Fifty-three of those killed on the
railroads were trespassers and 6 of
the fatalities on the electric lines of
the same class. This percentage is
higher than usual. Only 2 passengers
were killed on the railroads and 3 on
electric lines. Eight of the fatalities
were at grade crossings of railroads.
The number of railroad employes
killed was 25. 10 being section hands,
G trackmen, 2 conductors and 1 each
yardman, engineer, car cleaner, signal
man, trackwalker and crossing watch
man. Two employes of trolley lines
lost their lives.
Considerable interest is being shown
by manufacturers of the State in the
prospective hearings on the coal rates
charged from the Clearfield region to
Lancaster and it is probable that York
manufacturer* will Join with the Lan
caster people when the cane is heard.
The Public Service Commission will
likely go Into rates charged for bring
ing coal to this city, Philadelphia and
Baltimore and It may t>e the first
probe into schedules for hauling fuel
to eastern Pennsylvania.
A. F. I-Tanna, chairman of the bor
ough council of Lykens, calU the at
tention of the Commission to a dan
gerous crossing of the line of the Sus
quehanna & Dauphin Traction Com
pany over the tracks of the Pennsyl
vania railroad near Wlconisco.
Ellas Sassaman, of Center Valley,
has tiled with the Commission a com
plaint against the Lehigh Valley Tran
sit Company. It appears that on the
branch extending from Allentown to
Bethlehem. Catasauqua,, Siegfried,
Siatington and Emaus, a monthly trip
book, or ticket, at reduced rates is
used, whereas a full fare is charged
between Allentown, Coopersburg and
intervening points.
D. O. Kerr, Klngsvllle, informs the
Commission that there are no station
facilities at that point, on the line of
the Lake Shore & Michigan Southern
railroad and that several deaths are
attributable to exposure at the sta
tion.
Curtis E. Blin-Slnger, editor of the
Hoxborough Independent, wants the
Commission to render a decision as to
whether a railroad company cannot
contract with a newspaper to pay for
Its advertising in as many miles cash
value as the advertising bills amounts
to, by Issuing a mileage book for the
use of the newspapers advertised in.
The Commission has secured better
passenger train Service on Whites'
Creek branch of tho Baltimore &
Ohio.

MARKETS GRADUALLY
SHOW AN INCREASE
At Noon Level of Prices Were Depressed Under Yester
day's Close
By Associated Press
New York, Jan. 27. Stocks were
supplied in large amounts to-day when
ever quotations showed an advancing
tendency. The extent of the recent ad
vance made traders reluctant to at
tempt active operations on fhe ions side
in the face of this realizing, and the
market gradually developed & heavy
tone. Signs of moderate purchases of
an Investment character were apparent;
the inquiry from this source was
neither as large nor as varied as on re
cent days. By noon the level of prices
was depressed under yesterday's close.
Bonds were Irregular.

Parcel Post to Cut
High Cost of Living
Special to The Telegraph
Washington, D. C.. Jan. 27.—I3x
perts of the Post Office Department
and the Department of Agriculture
are at work upon a scries ol' investiga
tions which the experts believe will
accomplish more toward reducing the
cost of living than anything that has
yet been proposed.
Their experiments contemplate the
use of the parcel post in the transpor
tation of commodities directly from
the producer to the consumer.
The first report on these investiga
tions will soon be made public by the
Deparement of Agriculture and offi
cials of this department already are
rejoicing over the prospects.
Postmaster General Burleson and
Secretary Houston believe that the
use of the parcel post as the direct
means of delivery from the consumer
to the producer, through doing away
with the middleman and his profits,
will bring the cost of the market bas
ket provisions down considerably.
SHOOTS WIFE AND HIMSELF
