Superintendent \Y. B. McCaleb Ex
plains Withdrawal of Pennsy
Trains
"Retrenchment when earnings are
Showing a big decrease, is the policy
t»f every good business man," said Su
perintendent William B. McCaleb, of the
Philadelphia Division of the Pennsyl
vania Railroad, this morning when ask-
Kl for a statement as to the meaning
bf tho withdrawal of trains, and other
reductions; announced yesterday.
After calling attention to the fnct
that retrenchments are made in Phila
delphia by the higher officials, and
tvith no desire to hit at any special
branch, Superintendent McCaleb refer
red to the recent reports showing a
big reduction in earnings of the Penn
sylvania Railroad, and said:
"The question of 'supers' and 'ghosts,'
referred to in one newspaper is too ab
liurd to consider. All retrenchments
kro made from a business standpoint.
"The necessity for retrenchment on
railroads Is apparent when conslder-
Pttlori Is given the fact that the earn
ncs of the road has decreased several
rnUllon dollars in tlie past few years,
East of Pittsburg and Erie.
"In making the retrenchment it was
fone with a view of inconveniencing
he public as little as possible, and a
Study of tho time table will show that
the trains taken oft will not be missed
to any material extent, as these trains
run rather close together, and the fol-

Begin the Hyomei treatment at

TUESDAY EVENING,
lowing: or preceedingr trains will take
care ot the travel."
Passenger department -officials of the
Philadelphia. Division were of the opin
ion that the public jumped at con
clusion too quickly. One official said:
Train No. 61) Is not taken off east
or Harrisburg, as is the general im
pression of tnc people, but this train
will run from Pnlladelpbia to Harris
bury: as formerly, and is only taken
mf tween Harrisburg and Altoona.
. The fame can be said of loby, which
is the same train on Sundays. Owing
to decrease in the passenger travel,
f rain ? Ci-ji take care of all travel
offered, which will be handled by haul,
ing the cars, or some of them from the
trains taken off, on the other trains.
"Stops made by trains taken off will
also be arranged to other trains.
"It will be remembered that at the
time of the opening of the new sta
tion in New xork four new through
trains were put on at one time with
tiie idea of taking care of increased
business out of New York, but it has
now developed that the business offer
ed can bo handled with a reduced num
ber of trains. Train No. 43, lias been
hauling few people. During the sum
mer months, this train will in all prob
ability go back on the schedule.'
Hall Signal Nhonn Broken Hull—The
value of the Hall signal system in case!
of a broken rail, wa» again proven yes-!
terday on the Harrisburg Division of
the Reading Railway, when tho parting
ot a rail near Myerstown, set the dang
er signals east and west, stop],ing all
trains, and notifying the nearest tower
that something was wrong
It is the belief that the cold weath
er was the cause lor the rail snap
ping.
The train leaving Harrisburg shortly
arter .-> o clock yesterday morning
»51r . e red "Iffnal sot against it, and
notified a track waiker who made an
investigation and found the broken
rail. i rains were delayed nearly an
hour until repairs were made.

Arbitration Treaties
Negotiated by Knox
Are Lying Dormant
By Associated Prtss
Washington, D. C., Feb. 24. —Atten-
tion was called at the Capitol to-day
to the fact that arbitration treaties
negotiated with Great Britain and
France for ex-Secretary of State Knox
and ratified by the Senate with amend
ments March 7, li) 12, are stored in
the archives of the State Department
and never have been in force. Neither
Great Britain nor France has com
municated to the United States gov
ernment their attitude as to amend
ments enacted by the Senate after the
original negotiations had been con
cluded. «•
lu the Senate to-day there was ap
parently no disposition to recall the
treaties, and unless Great Britain or
Frances should ask to have the nego
tiations reopened the foreign rela
tions committee or the Senate have
nothing before them in connection
with these agreements.
These conventions, which would ex
tend the scope and obligation of the
policy of arbitration adopted in the
general -arbitration treaties with Great
Britain and France, probably will be
permitted to lie dormant in view of
the extension of the original treaties
authorized by the Senate last Satur
day.

General Agreement Among Busi
ness Men to Stop Selling
Next Snnday
Members ot the Steelton Merchants'
Association, the Good Citizenship Lea
gue, the Ministerial Association and a
number of lodges are watching the
calendar with anxious eyes. On Sun
day next is the date on which all stores
and other places of business are re
quested to close and observe the Sun
day selling laws.
The Rev. Harwick Loilis, rector of
Trinity Episcopal Church, chairman of
the Joint committee on Sunday clos
ing, was asked this morning whether
ho tliought the agitation of his com
mittee would bo successful. He said:
"I think that everything now points
to a. general observance of the law.
In the foreign sections a great deal of
interest was shown, and others are in
terested as well. I visited 242 places
of business giving tho people in each
a popy of the Sunday law, and a copy
of the letter asking their co-operation,
and requesting them to close beginning
March the first, the Sunday upon
which the Ministerial Association is
trying to rally the people of the bor
ough to attend their respective
churches. I now feel that the situa
tion depends upon the attitude of our
own people. The others will fall into
line readily enough, andl am hoping
that everyone will respond to the bet
ter sentiment of the community. Fi
nancially, there would be no loss to
tho business men If tliey would do so.
Some have opened on a Sunday to
accommodate a few people or get a
little more business, and the others
were compelled to follow. Now tho
result is they are doing six days' busi
ness, but taking seven doys to do it.
What we wish is for them to have
their full amount -of business, but not
to be compelled to do an extra day's
work to secure it."
FIRST "IIEAT" POURED
The first "heat" from one of the big
Talbot tilting furnaces at the new
open hearth department, of the Penn
sylvania Steel Works, was "poured"
shortly after 7 o'clock last evening. It
was a big event to the army of em
ployes around the steel works. When
the big' furnace tilted over and a livid
stream of liquid rail steel ran from the
mouth of tlie furnace, a cheer went up
from the crowd of spectators. A full
"heat" of 100 tons of steel was poured.
Another furnace of the same capacity
is now in the course of construction.

AHIZONA MOTORCYCLISTS ACTIVE
E. G. Baker is promoting another se
vere endurance test for Phoenix, Ariz.,
motorcyclists. The proposed event is a
triangle run to Roosevelt, to Tucson
and back to Phoenix. A part of the
course is in fairly good condition, but
the run from Globe to Tucson, which
is the longest lap of the course, will lie
a real trial. This road Is scarcely more
than a path dug out over the moun
tains by Arizona convicts. Is ex
pected that many noted motorcyclists
will take part In tho competition.
Plans are also on foot in Phoenix to
form a State F. A. M. organization for
Arizona. The recent numerous club
runs, races, and road competitions have
created great enthusiasm among mo
torcyclists of Arizona and Commis
sioner Pottiger Is of the opinion that"
there will be little difficulty In perfect
ing a strong State organization.

Have Urged More 1 rouses
For several years past the Munici
pal League, anticipating such a move
from the steel company, has been agi
tating the building of more houses
«f re ' «> » e of some of the peo
plei affected by the order is pathetic

11 the condemned district to-day and
°, * ® little stores there were
gathered little groups of the residents
discussing the situation. Their uiijrht
is distressing. No one of them can
suggest a solution. One business man
in the district this morning said the
move would ruin him.
"I have several thousand dollars
tied up here in stock and book ac
counts," he said, "and I don't know
where I can move."
Officials Say Nothing
Just what the steel company in
tends to do with the big plot of ground
to be vacated is a matter of mere con
jecture. An inquiry at the general of
fices of the company here this morn
ing led to tho reply that "we havo no
information to give out at the present
time. Rumors have been floating
about in the borough during the past
few weeks, however, to the effect that
the company contemplates building a
new $3,000,000 mill on the ground
made available. This rumor has il6t
yet been confirmed.
Another rumor that is whispered
persistently about, is to the efTect that
the company will build a freight yard
on the ground made available by yes
terday's vacating order. Officials of
the company also refused to talk on
thi srumor. The purchase by the
company of the plant of the defunct
Milliken Steel Company on Staten Is
land, however, lends color to the ru
mor that a large building for a new
department will be built here. The
Staten Island plant will be moved
here and workmen are now there dis
manteling the plant. Just where it
will be erected at the local plant, of
ficials of the company will not say.

night were running irregularly, and
behind time, and several of the city

died down last night for awhile in- "
creased in velocity this morning, in
creasing from 15 miles an hour at 8
o'clock to 20 miles at 8:30. Suf
ficient time elapsed after the snow
ceased, however, to clear the trolley
tracks, and little trouble Is expected.

Knocks Rheumatism
The only logical treatment for rheu
matism is through the blood. The poi
sons that settle in muscles, joints and
back, causing severe pain, must be dis
solved and expelled from the system or

working wonders all over the country.

one ounce of syrup of Sarsaparilla com
pound Take \hese two Ingredients

take a teaspoonful beforo each meal
and at bed-time." Results come the
fist day. If your druggist does not
have Torls compound In stock he will
get it in a few hours from his whole
sale house. Don't be Influenced to talte
some patent medicine Instead of this.
