BUSINESS MEN GET
INTO HOIDS FIGHT
Better Highways Demanded by
Leaders of Many Trades and
Occupations
Many of the substantial business
men of the city are identifying them
selve with the Pennsylvania Good
Roads Association with a view to put
ting the movement in behalf of better
highways on an organized basis.
E. J. Herman, who organized the
Ohio Good Roads Federation, a body
instrumental in establishing a practical
road system in that State after all
other efTorts had failed, has been mak
ing a preliminary survey of conditions
here.
I have conferred with scores of rep
resentative business ami professloal
men, and wltli leaders In the various
trades and occupations In Harrisburg
with a view to ascertaining .lust what
Is the state* of popular feeling on the
good roads question," said Mr. Herman
to-day, "and I am impressed with the
unanimity of sentiment In favor of the
Legislature first taking care of the
great public works of the State before
deciding how much can be spared for
other objects in proportion to their
worth."
If this sentiment can be crystallzed
through organization, so that the
Legislature may know exactly where
the great body of the people stand,
there will be no question about ade
quate appropriations for the building
and maintenance of both the State
highways and the country roads.'
Mr. Hernan will shortly start on a
detailed tour of the State, under the
auspices of the Pennsylvania Good
Roads Association.
FUGS OPCAPITOL
IT IE MIST
[Continued from First Page]
James Adams Beaver, then an officer
of the militia of the State, promptly
volunteered and entered the military
service of the United States as First
Lieutenant in the Second Regiment
Pennsylvania Volunteers. He was
subsequently commissioner Lieuten
ant Colonel of the Firty-fifth Regi
ment Pennsylvania olunteers, which
commission he later resigned to ac
cept the Colonecy of the One Hundred
and Forty-eighth Regiment, in which
capacity he served until mustered out
by reason of wounds received in bat
tle.
"His military career was marked by
the bravery and devotion to duty that
glorify the fame and the worth of the
American citizen soldier, and gives to
the martial history of his native State
one of its brightest pages. He always
enjoyed the unlimited confidence of
his superior officers, to whom he was
ever a tower of strength, and was the
courageous and competent leader
whom men deemed it an honor to
follow.
"In peace he gave freely of his time
and efforts to build up the National
Guard of the State, a work In which
his signal ability and conspicuous fit
ness produced results in keeping with
his brilliant record as a soldier and
in which service he remained until
as Governor he became the Com
mander-in-Chief.
"His services as Governor of the
Commonwealth, from 1887 to 1891.
were characterized by courage, zeai
and ability. His official acts were al
ways prompted by pure motives and
strong convictions.
He was appointed Judge of the Su
perior Court in 1890, in which office
he was continued by subsequent elec
tions until his death. As a member
of the bench he was upright, honest
and fearless.
"His funeral will take place at
Bellefonte on Tuesday, February 3,
at 10 o'clock a. m.
"In recognition of his services to
this Commonwealth as soldier, Gov
ernor and jurist. I recommend that
the flags upon the public buildings be
displayed at half staff and that the
several departments within executive
control be closed that day."
Personalities Denied
in Bigelow Suit
By .Associated Press
Philadelphia, Feb. 2. A denial of
Sersonal animus or hostility toward
idward M. Bigelow, State Highway
Commissioner, and other employes of
the department who are under Indict
ment for neglecting public roadS, was
made to-day in an answer filed by Dis
trict Attorney Whitehouse, of Schuyl
kill county, to the Supremo Court.
Counsel for Bigelow and the others
petitioned the Supreme Court for a
change of venue on the ground that a
fair trial could not be had in Schuylkill
county because of the alleged hostile
attitude of Judges Brumm and Beehtel.
The Supreme Court will hear argu
ment, it is expected, later In the day.
As usual in such cases, It is expected
the Court will hold the case under ad
visement. John C. Bell, Attorney Gen
eral, is agreeable that the change of
venue be made. In papers filed with the
Court he has Joined with counsel for
Bigelow that such a motion be granted.

Mid wives' Practice Dangerous
"Another danger to the mothers j
and children is the practice of mid- i
wives and old women who make a |
business of nursing in maternity cases. !
These people will be licensed by the !
State, but at present the harm done :
by the midwives is considerable.
"As it is now with no place to go, ,
and funds in the family treasury j
short, the mother fears to hire a ,
physician and calls in the midwife,
who has absolutely no training for the
delicate case. If a free maternity
hospital is established here or only a
small fee were churged these mothers
would know that they could go to a
place where they could be taken care
of at small expense. The need for the
maternity hospital is urgent."
Miss Mary W. Miller, superinten
dent of the Visiting Nurses' Associa
tion who meets with deplorable con
ditions daily in her work said a ma
ternity hospital can come none too
soon if the lives of the cities' babies
and mothers are to be saved.
Harrlsburg Is Far Behind
"This city is far behind many oth
ers, in fact, it is the only one of its
size I know of that has no provision
for taking care of the mothers of the
poor," she said.
"A baby died last week in a North
Seventh street home, a few days nfter
it was born because of the deplorable
conditions which met its coming into
the world. The family is not to blame,
for they can't help it. These poor
people are anxious to have some place
to go. Men tell me they have sent
their wives to Lebanon or Philadel
phia and there they were taken care
of in maternity hospitals. It is a
shame that this city has no place in
which healthy babies can be born.
"In many of these homes, I have
visited a child is born into a home
where there are no clothes, no food,
no fire and terrible sanitary condi
tions.
"Council should be urged to do
something to establish a hospital or
the Ilarrisburg hospital would do
well to add a maternity ward to its
present equipment. It is needed so
badly. If the councilmen could only
see what we see every day, they
wouldn't wait long to appropriate the
money."

ed the slump In all of the old and new
Rock Island issues. Pressure was lift
ed later on denial that the company
waß suffering from financial embar
rassment. Rock Island stocks made up
part of their losses, and the general
