TO BE RESTRICTED
Conference to Be Held With the
Pennsy Officials Regarding
Future Privileges
Special- to 'the Telegraph
Philadelphia, Feb. 18.—Reading offi
cials late yesterday issued orders simi
lar to those of the Pennsylvania Rail
road restoring pass privileges to mem
bers of families of employes to points
within Pennsylvania. It was also un
officially announced that a conference
would be held between Pennsylvania
Railroad and Reading officials regard
ing certain restrictions as to the use
of passes on certain trains.
Theodore Voorhees. of the Reading,
declared that the passes on the Read
ing would be restricted by a supple
mental order to follow. He gave out
the following:
"The Public Service Commission of
the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania,
by its administrative ruling No. 1. has
ruled that the granting by railroad
companies of free passes to their offi
cers and employes to be used for the
transportation of dependent members
of their families would not be regard
ed by the commission as a violation ol
the provisions of the public service
company law.
"This ruling will be accepted as
affording protection against exaction
of penalties for the issuance of passes
to dependent members of families of
officers and employe*, and the general
notice dated December 5. 1913, is
therefore annulled. (Signed)
"THEODORE VOORHEES.
"Vice-President."
llraJionian Crushed; Dies. —Chester
Moyer, 22 years old. of Roiling
•Springs, the Philadelphia and Reading
brakeman who was injured in the
Rutherford yards Sunday night, died
last night at the Harrisburg Hospital.
Moyer was repairing an air hose when
the train suddenly started, throwing
him under the ears. His injuries in
cluded both legs broken, fractured
skull and lacerations all over his body.
Safely First Results. Among the
results of the detailed attention to
safety by the Pennsylvania is that
$99,758 has been spent for guards,
mostly in shops. Practically all ma
chines are now guarded, and serious
accidents to employes have been re
duced from 5.4 per 100 in 1911, to 3.2
in 1912. In 35 of 46 shops where more
than 50 men are employed there has
been a reduction in the number of
serious accidents, ranging from 5 to
70 per cent. Another result of the
keeping of detailed statistics, is that
when one shop does not show satis
factory improvement, special inquiry i
is made, to find methods of decreasing I
accidents.

IPPOfNTMENT WILL
(WISE EFFICIENCY
[Continued from First Fk|e.]
Park Commission might refuse to
aerve as a City Planning Commission.
Firemen's Action
The Firemen's Union which met in
the Friendship flreliouae, criticised the
action of Council in substituting Mr.
| Halbert for Mr. Splcer and adopted a
; resolution to that effect by a vote of
27 to 1. Following is the resolution:
"Whereas the Republican members
of City Council have seen fit to oust
Charles F. Spicer. as assistant fire
chief and appoint in his stead one Ed
ward Halbert, and
"Whereas, Charles F. Spicer being
an able and efficient fireman and the
first man for the position of assistant
fire chief, it is hereby
"Resolved, That it is the sense of
:the Harrisburg Firemen's Union that
! the City Council has made a great mis-
I take In appointing Edward Halbert,
as assistant fire chief and we believe
jthat his confirmation next Tuesday
I will be detrimental to the Interest of
the lire department and that we as
a body protest against this appoint
ment and ask the members of Council
to withdraw the name of Edward Hal
bert and retain Charles F. Spicer, as
our assistant fire chief."
Halbert Proved Efficient
Mr. Halbert is considered an efficient I
fireman and has taken particularly
heroic chances from time to time at
big fires. Harrisburg folks who stood
through the long hours of the Grand
Opera House fire recall the desperate
although unsuccessful ffort of Halbert
to rescue a nearly frantic stage hand
from the top window of the playhouse
while flames and smoke had practical
ly cut off all hope of escape.
Commissioner of Parks and Public-
Property Taylor declined to discuss the I
situation at all to-day. He wouldn't
talk <>n the subject of either Forrer,
the Fremen's Union or the Halbert ap
pointments.
"Mr. Forrer will remain until April
1 in accordance with *vhat 1 told him
sometime ago and mean to put in a
resolution carrying him over for an
other month, at an early meeting.
This will give him the additional time
to make what plans he wishes. As
for the action of the Firemen's Union,"
Mr. Taylor smilingly shook liis head,
"really I can't discuss that."
Tlie Planning Commission
"You mean to appoint the mem
bers of the Park Commission aa the
first City Planning Commission, do you
not?" Mr. Taylor was asked.
"Well that is the plan but X don't
care to talk on that subject just yet
as I don't know whether the commis
sion would consider the action relative
to Mr. Forrer an affront or not."
President Charles A. Disbrow, presi
dent of the Park Board, only said he
regretted the dismissal of Mr. Forrer,
and believes that the Commissioner of
Parks made a great mistake- in re
moving one who has been efficient and
capable. Whether the Park Com-1
mission would take any further action !
in the matter, Mr. Disbrow said he
doesn't know,
In a statement issued to-day Mr.
Forrer extends sincere thanks to the
Park Commission, the newspapers, and
the people of the city for their help
and co-operation—and a good-by to
•the thousands of youngsters of the
city. Here is the statement:
Mr. Forrer Says Good-by
In view of my long service in
the park department of the city
and the kindly co-operation ex
tended to me in the great work of
development that has been per
formed since I was chosen to the
superintendency of the park sys
tem, I deem it only proper that T
should briefly but sincerely thank
the members of the retiring park
commission, the newspapers of
the city and the hundreds of men,
women and children who have so
heartily supported me at all times
in my humble efforts to promote
the efficiency of thts Important
branch of the city government.
The members of the park board
have at all times been enthusiastic
and energetic. Nobody who has
not been associated with them can
appreciate their devotion to the
trust reposed in them nor to the
amount of time and work they
have given to the up-building of
the park system, and this with
out pay. and ofttimes, I have fear
ed, without much thanks.
The newspapers have at all times
stood ready to do their part. The
great work of public education to
the use of parks and to the value
of public playgrounds and recrea
tion places has been accomplish
ed through their instrumentality
and the hundreds of columns of
space they have given to the free
advertisement of what the park
officials and councils were trying
to do.
Thanks For the Children
It is needless to say that I sever
my connections with the park de
partment with extreme regret.
Especially Is it hard for me to
think that I am no more to en
joy the summer playground and
camp work among the hundreds
of little folks whom I have count
ed among my best friends. It is
my sincere hope that they will,
And in my successor as sincere a
friend as I have tried to be and
that he will appreciate their kind
ly advances as much as I have
done. It may not be amiss here
to extend my thanks to the boys
and girls who made my recent
enforced stay in the hospital
pleasant with flowers and showers
of post cards, all of which I have
kept and treasure among my dear
est possessions.
In return for these many kind
nesses I have endeavored to give
my best efforts to the city and I
will lay down my duties In the full
consciousness of a work done as
well as I knew how to do it and
in the belief it has met with gen
eral approval.

BATTLE LINES ON
SALOON FIGHT DRAWN
Opposers of Booze Concentrate to
Keep New Placet From
Getting Licenses
With battle lines closely drawn and,
figuratively speaking, sleeping on their
arms, the pro and antl saloon ad
herents of Steelton are awaiting with
Intense interest the opening of license
court to-morrow, when the opposing
forces of the borough will engage in a
test of strength to decide whether or
not any more saloons shall be licensed
here. Both sides have taken particular
pains in preparing for the test and
both admit that to-morrow's struggle
will decide the future of many of the
borough's drinking places.
Antl-saloon workers here have con
centrated their strength against the
two new applications for retail license*
and no remonstrances are filed against
any of the old hotels. These new ap
plications have been filed by John
Shoop and David F. Kaker. Shoop
wants a license to conduct a hotel in
the building owned by F. E. Smith ai
Front and Molm streets and Raker
wants to run a hotel In the building
owned by William Flynn at 561 South
Third street, in the midst of the bor
ough's foreign section.
Both these men are prominont in
the borough. Against them both, how
over, there have been filed remon
strances and a number of witnesses
will bo called to show that more
saloons are not necessary, are not
needed and will promote law breaking
if granted. The no-license people will
be represented by two well-known
lawyers and many of the town's
prominent people will be called upon
to testify against the granting of the
licenses, it is asserted by temperance
workers.
Mrs. 31. M. Stees, president of the
Dauphin County 'Woman's Christian
Temperance Union and a member of
the executive committee of the
No-License league, said this morning
that, she was confident that the licenses
would not be granted. "If we win to
morrow's fight," she asserted, "we
shall file remonstrances against every
saloon In the town next year."
"This morning," said Mrs. Stees, "1
mailed copies of the License Annual,
tho publication we issue, containing
the names of all license recommenders,
to Burgess Wigfleld, along with a copy
of the cigaret law, for each patrol
man. I shall see Burgess Wig-field
personally within the next few days
and call his attention to the number
of men in public office here who want
more saloons."
Dress Rehearsal For
Minstrel Show Tonight
The first dress rehearsal for the sev
enteenth annual production of the
original Home Talent Minstrels, to be
given to-morrow evening in tho High
School auditorium for the benefit of
St. James' parish, will be held this
evening in the T. A. B. Hall, North
Front street. Costumes for the per
formers arrived from New >"ork this
morning.
The show this year is under thej
management of Thomas F. Lynch, who I
wrote all the "skits," and Mike Daylor. I
These two men have directed the show ,
for seventeen years and the company I
has acquired a high reputation among
amateur minstrels. Gwyllm Watklosi
is the musical director of the company.
The show is in two parts and consists
of ten separate acts. One of the fea
tures is a "skit," enttled "Back From
Mexico." One of the other features
is a "skit," entitled "At the Ball
Game." Reserved seats are now on
sale at Daron's jewelry store, in North
Front street. The seats ai e going fast

take advantage of tho opening of tho

there had not been a single customer
and all the municipal clerks had to
do was to dust off the shelves, where

pound instead of 7; soap at 3'/4 cents
a bar; rice at 2 % cents a pound in
stead of 6, and bacon at 17 cents a
pound.

You needn't coax sick children to
take this harmless fruit laxative; they
love its delicious taste and It always
makes them feel splendid.
Ask your druggist for a 50 cent bot
tle of "California Syrup of Figs,"
which has directions for babies, chil
dren of all ages, and for grown-ups
plainly on each bottle. Beware of
counterfeits sold here. Get the gen
