Railroad Need Not Pay City Bonus Til Work Starts in Spring Not until the work on the proposed South Harrisburg freight station im provements has been started will the Pennsylvania Railroad Company be required to pay over $25,000 bonus to the city In accordance with the pro visions of the ordinance giving the company the right of way In South Harrisburg. This was the opinion expressed by Mayor Royal this morning when asked whether any money had been paid to the city. The railroad officials do not anticipate any activity on these Im provements until Spring. Charges Made Against Prison Management Philadelphia, Jan. 29.—Accusations of inhumanity and brutality were pre ferred against the management of Moyamensing prison yesterday. A widow told the five Common Pleas Court Judges, Who are investigating conditions at the Tenth and Reed streets jail, that, to all intents and purposes her husband had been killed in prison. She said he had been starv ed to death. An ex-prisoner testified that when he told a keeper he was ill and asked him to summon a physi cian, the reply was a threat of physical violence if he did not keep quiet. He did not keep quiet and his punishment was a blow that knocked out two teeth. YOUNG MOTHER UNDERGOES CAESARIAN OPERATION Another Caesarian operation, the second within two months, was per formed at the Harrisburg hospital to-day on the youngest patient who has ever undergone that test of sur gical skll in this , city. She is Mrs. Raymond Witman, aged 18 years, of Penbrook. Mrs. Witman is recovering although her baby Is dead. The other patient who underwent the same operation some weeks ago died under the knife. CELEBRATE M'KINLET DAY Harrisburg folks did not forget this was the anniversary day of the birth of the late President William McKln- Ley and many hundred carnations %re worn in this city. Local florists say that sales of carnations to-day ex ceeded all previous years. Every member of the Harrisburg police de partment wore a carnation. There was no celebration in Harrisburg. The principal observance of the day was at Canton, Qhio, the home of the "Martyred Prf-'ident." HARRISBURG TELEORZFB! ROAD DRAGS MIGHT BE OF ADVANTAGE [Continued from First Page. ] the road which figured in the suit." He showed a slide of road as good as a race track at a county fair. "The best thin? the Highway Com missioner could do would be to hold road conventions all over the State, but hold them right out on the roads. Use practical object lessons. The township highway law of 1913 is not a bad law; it's a good law. Last night's session of the board was featured by pertinent addresses on different topics which were receiv ed with close attention by the farm ers. Two heads of State departments talked Superintendent of Public Printing and Binding A. Nevin Pome roy and State Librarian Thomas Lynch Montgomery. Reports were also re ceived and an address was made by Professor M. S. McDowell, of State College. Superintendent Porneroy confessed thiU.it was a bit difficult, to interest farmers directly in printing, but he dwelt upon the big educational work of the Slate in sending out bulletins and advised all of them to study the bulletins of the Department of Agri culture and its branches. Touching upon delays In issuing documents which are not unknown, Mr. Porneroy said that he is an earnest advocate of a State-owned printery, but inform ed his hearers that such a plan is impossible without an amendment to the constitution. Librarian Montgomery devoted most of his address to the traveling library system of the State institution, citing some of the work it has done and urg ing that use be made of these free cir culating libraries In every c6rner of the State. He also referred to the ex cellent free circulating collection of lantern slides which the State museum has under him and urged the use of this educational material. R. P. Bliss, who is In charge of the traveling li braries, invited the agriculturists to visit the library and see how the sys tem Is worked. Professor McDowell spoke of the educational work of State College not particularly among the students at the college, but more especially among the citizens at large in the matter of liter ature, farmer's trains, etc. State Economic Zoologist H. A. Sur face, reporting as theornithologist of the board, gave an outline of the pro tected and unprotected birds of the State and of the work they do and in conclusion he showed lantern slides of San Jose Scale parasites which are cleaning up the orchards of the State. Professor Franklin Menges, of York, presented his report as entomologist of the board; John H. Schultz, of Norristown, as chairman of the ferti lizers committee, and Sylvester Shaf fer, of New Castle, as chairman of the wool and textile fibers committee. James Foust, dairy and food com missioner, was scheduled to speak late yesterday afternoon, but was busy In court and Dr. Joseph Kalbfus, chief game protector, who was to speak to morrow morning, made his address then. Dr. Kalbfus made an earnest plea for the preservation of bird life, saying very little about the aesthetic side. He devoted himself principally to economics, quoting figures of loss and possible loss from insects which ran from billions to sextillions and had his audience gasping. More State Police a Necessity For Rural Districts Major iohri C. Groome, superinten dent of State police, this morning talked to the board on "Police Pro tection to Rural Districts," setting forth details of the work which are probably unfamiliar to many citizens. Major Groome recited the methods of organization and maintenance of the force and then told how the rural districts in general get protection dur ing the summer by the scores of sub stations which are established and which cover hundreds of miles by daily patrol, do local detective and protective work, fight forest fires, help enforce game and fish laws, etc. In 1912 the department received 2,592 requests for help from mayors, judges, sheriffs, etc., nearly all of which came from small places with little or no local protection. The calls averaged eight per day. The 200 men on the force cover 491,000 miles per year, working every day. In six years, the force has covered 2,- 142,000 miles and made 20,676 ar rests. "The common Idea that the State police are like a fire company, set ting around waiting for an alarm, is entirely wrong," he said. "They are constantly on duty. Unfortunately, riot duty is the most spectacular work we do, although it is but a small item. We have made as many arrests for horse stealing as we have for riot, and we have made more for murder and more for rape. "A group of idle men, inflamed by an agitation and probably some al cohol, becomes a mob and a riot starts. Local methods fail and the State police are called. We recognize nothing as an excuse for rioting. No matter what the merits of the strike the men must preserve law and or der. Naturally, we have incurred the enmity of some worklngmen, but I am glad to say that the better class of English speaking laboring men are changing their views." In conclusion. Major Groome said the way to get more protection is to have more police. "I consider the refusal of the last Legislature to Increase the force a di rect Invitation to criminals in this State. I hope the next session will do better. You men can be of great help. The farmers are the men who rule the State. We ought to have such a police force In Pennsylvania that no farm, no matter how remote or Isolated, Is without protection. Remember, our work Is entirely in the country, except on riot duty. We cannot help you as we should unless we have sufficient men and money. State's Fish Work Has Expanded in All Directions Apt comparison of the relative eco nomic value of an acre of land and an acre of water was made by N. R. Bul ler, State fish commissioner. "Scarcely a farm exists In this State," said Mr. Buller, "which does not have a wet spot which can be used as a pond for fish. All that Is need ed Is a supply of water sufficient to prevent the pond from becoming stag nant. It need not be a very large pond. "The farmer, or several farmers go ing together, can raise a supply of fish sufficient not only for family use but leave plenty over to sell." The sunfish species known as blue gills and the catfish are the best to raise. If no pond exists, the cost of construction need not be great and the cost of maintenance Is nil. The re turn in sport and food repays aU effort manifold. Introduction of tadpoles will pro vide additional food in the shape of frogs. Musk rats can also be raised and, in spite of prejudice, they are delicious food and the hidp of com mercial value. Commissioner Uuller. noting the common idea that progagation of game fish is the department's chief work, said its really important work is to propagate food fish. He set his office at the disposal of any who wish to establish food fish ponds on a farm and urged the agriculturists to take up the idea. Fish for stocking are available from the department. Fertilizer Law Is in Much Need of Some New Restrictions This morning's session brought a dis cussion of fertilizers and the consen sus of opinion was that this business, in general, is honest. F. S. Brong. of Monroe, however, advocated legisla tive creation of a State inspector of fertilizers to carry out the work in this line, now being done through the general office of the Department of Agriculture, Mr. Brong also offered a resolution that the legislative committee endea vor to have passed a law requiring the sources from which fertilizer is de rived to be stamped on the package, to provide for chemical analysis and to provide heavier penalties for law violations. Keep Roosters Away From Hens, Says Poultry Expert Separation of roosters and liens will do much toward Improving the quan tity and quality of eggs for food, W. Theodore Wlttman, of Allentown. told the board this morning In making the report of the poultry committee of the board. "Millions of dollars' worth of eggs can so bo added to the State's annual supply," he said. "That Is no ex aggeration. All males should be shut up and kept shut up, or else they should be caponized or killed when not more than three months old. A few males must be kept, of course, but they should be selected carefully for breeding and handled carefully only for breeding. The hens will have better health, better plumage, will lay better and will live longer. Dr. M. E. Conrad, of West Chester, reported as chairman of the livestock committee and went Into detail In urg ing a higher standard of all grades of livestock throughout the State, H. C. KUnger, of Liverpool, report ing as apiarist of the board, gave in teresting statistics of the beekeeping industry in this State which, he said, iB yearly increasing in Importance. Pennsylvania now ranks second in the beekeeping Industry. Mr. Kllnger In vited the board to the annual meet ing of the Pennsylvania State Bee keepers' Association at the Capitol, February 20 and 21. Powell Discusses Taxation of Farm Lands in the Stale Among the speakers this afternoon was Auditor General Powell, who, in discussing taxation, said: "With rare exception, contribu tions to governmental revenues are In voluntary; and Involuntary payments are of two classes: First, there are prices charged by government for some special service or privilege, these being fees or licenses; and sec ond, amounts levied regardless of con siderations of special benefit, these being fines and taxes. Payments of the second class are enforced to meet the government's net operating deficit. If government charged for each ser vice rendered a fee sufficient to cover cost of service. Including carrying and overhead charges plus provision for replacements, Insurance and a reserve for lean years, there need be no taxes; or only sufficient to raise that small amount necessary to provide for mis cellaneous expenses of a very general nature. "The true theory of raising revenue for expenses of government, is that fees should cover cost, including over head charges and reasonable reserve; that license fees should equal or slightly exceed the value of the privi lege granted; and that taxes proper should be levied in proportion to the ability of the individual taxed to bear government's burdens. "It is an erroneous idea that prop erty is taxed. Tax is levied against the owner, and its amount is regulated in some degree by the value of his property. "Pennsylvania reserves, for State taxation, only the owners of property which takes the corporate form. It taxes the bonds or other evidences of Indebtedness issued by corporations, in the hands of the holders, and makes treasurers of these corporations the State's agents for collection of the tax, which is four mills on par value. The State also lays a tax of Ave mills on the value of capital stock outstanding, and requires certain public utility cor porations to pay a tax of eight mills upon the dollar of their gross receipts. From these three principal sources of revenue the State last year received about $18,000,000." Goethals Police Bills Are Sent to Albany By Associated Frist New York, Jan. 29.—Mayor John Purroy Mitchel sent the Goethals po lice bills to Albany to-day, where they will be Introduced in the State Legis lature. There are five bills in all, each one dealing with a particular reform whlch2 the Mayor hopes to put Into effect In the police department as soon as possible. The most important bill is destined to meet the condition im posed by Colonel George W. Goethals, chief engineer of the Panama Canal, before accepting the Mayor's offer of the police commissionership. that the commissioner's action in dismissing -policemen shall not be reviewed by the courts. The Mayor expects the co-operation of Governor Glynn In getting the bills through the legislature. CHI UK CLERK NEEFE RETIRES The following statement was given out at the State Highway Depart ment to-day: "State Highway Com missioner Edward M. Bigelow an nounces with regret the resignation of his chief clerk, L. F. Neefe, who has been with the State Highway De partment since early In the year 1905. Mr. Neefe held the position of chief clerk under former Commissioner Jo seph W. Hunter and was retained in that position by Mr. Bigelow when he assumed charge of the State Highway Department as commissioner on June 1, 1911. Mr. Neefe will become a member of the real estate and Insur ance firm of Miller Bros. & Baker, talc ing the place of W. Harry Baker, who will retire from the firm on Febru ary 1. Mr. Neefe will remain with the department until March 1, *1914."

The redaction of the English and French bank rates failed to stimulate bullish operations In this market, and prices readily foil away when pressure was applied. The only reflection of Improved conditions in European monetary markets was ac tive buying of stock here for foreign account. London and the Continent bought ■ 30.000 shares, chiefly Canadian Pacific, Steel. Amalgamated and some of the minor railway shares. Bears concen- j trated pressure on Influential stocks, particularly steel and Reading, acting 011 the theory that a substantial reac tion was overdue.
