Harrisburg in 1914
THE Telegraph herewith presents to its readers Its "Harrisburg In
1914" edition, the purpose ol which is to forecast, as nearly as
may be from the facts at hand, the city's prospects for the com
ing year. LJttle attempt has been made to set down anything of a his
i torical character, save as it relates to events of the future. The situa
tion summed up is this—that no matter whether or not business at
large shows any remarkable increase In volume in the ten months re
maining, Harrisburg has sufficient public improvement work and other
constructive projects in immediate prospect to provide plenty of work
for those who may need it. Indeed, with anything like a swing back
to normal trade conditions 1914 should be a remarkably prosperous
year for this city. If this has been made clear in the accompanying
pages the full and only object of the edition will have been attained. :

By Associated Press
Laredo, Tex., Feb. 28. — Americans
along the Mexican border were not
hopeful to-day that the slayers of Cle
(inente Vergara, the Texas ranchman
'killed bv Mexican federals, would be
identified and punished by Provisional
President Huerta's government.
It was pointed that that the Mexi
can War I>epartment exercised little
I restraint over the isolated bands of
! federal troops. While they took more
I hope from expected action by the divi
sion military chiefs, it also was re
membered that Vergara alreadv had
been executed when General Alvarez
in good faith, it is believed, promised
j his release unharmed.
Friends and relatives of Vergara
have started an inquiry into the kill
ing in addition to the Investigations
being conducted by the United States
I government and the Texas authorities.
Reports from Hidalgo, where Vergara
was taken by orders of Captain Apo

IBy Associated Press
Berlin, Feb. 28.—Admiral Von Dle
derichs replies in print to-day to the
j statements made by Admiral Dewey
\ I regarding the exciting incidents be- j
! tween the American and German
j naval commanders in Manila Bay dur
i Ing the Spanish-American War.
The reply is published In the official
Marine Rundschau and is spread over
11,000 words, it contains the report
,of the visit made to Admiral Dewey
|on July 10, 1898, by the then flag
Lieutenant Von Hintze, who Is now
German Minister to Mexico,
i It is evident from this report that
Admiral Dewey threatened the Ger
mans with war If they did not cease
: their Interference with the blockade
regulations, and If they refused to per
: mit the Americans to make the in
quiries necessary to establish the iden
tity of neutral warships. Von Dleder-1
ichs says:
"Admiral Dewey gradually talked I
himself into a passion. He said 'Why,
1 shall stop every vessel, whatever
may be her colors. And if she does
not stop. I shall fire at her. And that
means war, do you know, sir?' When
the phrase 'if Germany wants war.'j
etc.. occurred again, I took my leave.!
"I was under the impression that!
this in itself trivial incident put a
mutch to a mass of explosives which
had long been accumulating in Ad
miral Dewey's mind from suspicion,
rumor and newspaper reports."

"I believe that the time has now
come for the building of a railroad
through northern British Columbia to

| and Ottawa have both gone so far as
to all dorse heartily some project of

FEEBLEMINDEDNESS
CAUSES PROSTITUTION,
SAY INVESTIGATORS
j
Recognition at Early Age Is One
Way of Preventing
Immorality
BUSINESS IS PROFITABLE
! Report of Inquiry Made in 79
j Massachusetts Cities Sub
mitted Today
By Associated Press
Boston, Mass.. Feb. 28.—"The flnan
i cial profit of the business of prosti
-1 tution is the principal reason ,for its
i existence. No other form of criminal
j offense so flagrant and open and so
I harmful to the community would be
■ tolerated for a day in this state."
These declarations are made in the
report submitted to the legislature to
day by a commission appointed last
year which has conducted a detailed
investigation in seventy-nine Massa
chusetts cities and towns.
The report* says that millions of
dollars are invested in establishments
utilized for immoral purposes and that
I "prostitution in all its ramifications
constitutes a vast business extending
. all over the state."
; The report emphasizes the dangers
I of unregulated lodging houses, public
i dance halls and recreation parks.
( The commission has found "wide
-1 spread evidence of a strong public
I sentiment against the continuance of
j the conditions it has found to exist"
| and expresses the conviction "that this
j evil is susceptible of successful attack
. and treatment."
Many Feeble-.Mliuled
"The fact that one-half of the
women examined wens actually feeble
! minded," the report says, "clears the
' way for successful treatment of a por
tion of this class. The recognition of
| feeble-minded girls at an early age in
j the public schools and proper pro
i vision for their protection may pre
vent much of the observed immorality
among young girls and th© resulting
temptations to boys.
"While the officials in no city in the
State have openly adopted the policy
of segregation and toleration." says
the report, "yet it is a fact that in
certain cities there arc streets where
the bueluess is conduced In much the
same way as if segregattoh was the
accepted official policy.
"In the larger cities the most fla
grant expression of commercialized
prostitution is in connection with cer
tain cafes and saloons. These places
are enormously profitable. The police
take the position that they have no
right to interfere if the letter of the
law is observed, but it is difficult to
understand why these immoral cafes
and saloons are tolerated."

: Obliteration of a large part of the
lower West Side of Steelton by the
' Pennsylvania Steel Company to make

! one of the biggest building "booms"
;J in the history of the borough in the
, opinion of prominent real estate men.
Out of town capitalists, it was
learned authoritatively this morning,
have already made tantative offers for
an option on a large tract of land east
of the borough for building purposes.
A party of real estate men were in
j the borough yesterday afternoon look
ing over two available cites. The
owner of at least one of these
tracts has been approached by agents
of these men with an offer for an op
tion. It Is understood that a syndi
cate contemplates the erection during
the next summer of about 100 new
houses of the bungalow style, houses
that will be sold at from $2,500 to
$3,000.
At a recent meeting of the Munici

Ithat at least 200. houses were needed

While the city tax rate for 111*
cannot be definitely determined until
alter the budget Is completed, every
Indication points to a reduction of at
least a half, and perhaps a whole
mill.
The fact that provision for expendi- \
tures covering 1 a fiscal year of nine,
instead of twelve months, makes a
reduction follow.
The City Commissioners grot to

expenses was held this afternoon at is
o'clock.
The budget for 1913 totaled $529,-
129. and while the total of the short
year, necessary appropriations cannot
yet be more than roughly estimated,
it is figured, conservatively speaking,
that the 1914 budget may be nearly
SIOO,OOO less. And the mill rate tor
the 1913 budget is nine and a half
mills.

The change in the city government
