2 BIG IMPROVEMENTS WILL BE IDE [Continued From First Page] pany to the presidency at the organ isation meeting. Although no definite statement as to what will be done this year can be made until after the meeting of the directors, it Is believed that renewals of trackage, paving and new equip ment will require the expenditure of more than a hundred thousand dollars during 1914. One large expenditure is certain. Derry street from Thirteenth to Twenty-third street will be retracked and repaved. Mr. Musser says the old foundation is about worn out and heavier tracks will be laid. The city intends paving Derry street from Eighteenth to Twenty-third street and the traction company has decided to put In new foundations, heavier tracks and new paving along this street at the same time. Lines to Be Rebuilt Contemplated paving jobs In Steel ton will require the expenditure of much money on the Steelton line. Front, Second and probably Nine teenth streets will be repaved and these the traction company will have to Improve with new paving between the tracks. Tracks in South Third street, between Chestnut and Mul berry streets, will be taken up during the year and every one of the streets which the city plans to pave or rcpave this year will require the traction com pany to follow along with paving. New cars will be purchased again, but It la not yet decided how many will be asked for. Anywhere from three to ten are bought each year. Last year seven were added to the equipment. Mr. Musser has succeeded H. D, Wa'lbrldge, of New York, as president and B. F. Meyers succeeds to the vice presidency, vacated by Mr. Musser. John O'Connell was re-elected secre tary and treasurer.

Statlo* SATURDAY EVENING, EIGHTEEN MEMBERS KUIEL'S CMAPAIGN OF STEAMER'S CHEW. FOR SUPREME COURT [Continued From First Page] [Continued Prom First Page] mate, and three of the members of the crew were brought ashore. The rev- t enue cutter Itasca reached the scene after the steamer went down. The' commander of the cutter was sig nalled from shore of the predicament of the eighteen men, among whom Is the captain, and the Itasca put to sea to search for the missing men. Life Savers Handicapped There are two big sand bars near the spot where the steamer went to the bottom yesterday and the life savers were seriously handicapped in launching their boats. One was finally launched but was upset and the life lavers waded ashore. The captain of the Tower and the seventeen men took to a long boat. It was so overcrowded that they were afraid to try landing on the first bar and hung around outside hoping the turbulent sea would subside. Snow was falling; it grew thicker about 3 a. m. to-day and the long boat was lost from view. Could Not Use Oars The weather lightened up again about 4.30 and there was then no sign of the long boat. When last seen the men were so cold they could not use the oars and therefore could not con trol the craft. Unless found by the revenue cutter or some steamer, it is believed here all will perish. It is possible that the men have reached an inlet and landed or may have been picked up by a life saving crew along the coast. Wire communi cation along the coast has been com pletely prostrated since last Sunday's great storm, and communication among the life saving stations is diffi cult and only accompanied after delay. The self-balling lifeboat of the Bar negatt Life Saving Station has been out of commission for the last three weeks waiting repairs, and the men cannot therefore go in search of the helpless long boat. The Tower was owned by the South ern Transportati< n Company, with which Charles W. Morse, of New York, Is identified. It Is said this was the first trip of the steamer in six years and that the crew was new to the officers. Three Boats On Ship The captain ts Harold Murphy. Ac cording to the crew, he edged in toward shore because he did not care to risk going on the bar and have the boat pound to pieces. All hands were ordered into the boats an hour before the steamer sank. There were only three boats on the ship and one was used for the clothes and other per sonal effects of the crew. This boat came ashore to-day at Barnegat Inlet. The members of the crew were vir tually strangers to one another, they being known to each other only as "Mike," "Charlie," etc. The second mate of the Tower is named Neaves and his home is in Boston. Thompson, mate of the Tower, after he came ashore with a fragment of the crew, talked about the ship. He said the repairs to the machinery at Hampton Roads on Wednesday were hasty and not well done. The engines went bad again soon after putting to sea and this condition, combined with hea\y seas, due to the storm, resulted in the wreck. The ship sprang leaks in bow and stern, he said, and in the end all the plates were shaken loose. V\ater poured into the doomed vessel as through a sieve. Punii>s Kept Going The steam pumps kent her going for a while. Then, with the aid of hand pumps, the crew tried desperately to fight back the inruehing water, but their struggle was unavailing, and It finally reached the engines. eoiffiiis BURLESQUE 019 WAIL I Continued From First l'ageJ W hat s this!" asked the reporters. "Oh, this is the Democratic Wail!" Here it is as Commissioner Bowman issued it. It is a sort of a burlesque on a mori,in!f newspaper editorial and news # column criticism: THE DEMOCRATIC WAIL Aided by the Progressives we forced a nonpartisan government on our city, thinking we had two chances to win. If we elected two Council men we retained con <'H| " r the city; if we did not, the Republicans with the nonpar tisan bugaboo staring tiiein in the face would he afraid to displace Democrats with Republicans. With all our threats of pollt leal destruction, supported by the lies and inucudocs of our beloved Patriot, the confounded Republi cans refuse to scare. The i>esky Republican trium virate in Council are stinging us wherever tliey can; they even have the nerve to Invite our two members, who are strictly non partisan now, to a conference for the purpose of having us execute our own truly loyal patriots and then bury our own dead. Caesar with all his cruelty never dared go so far as this. A bright light is fast breaking in on us, we sometimes believe It is their outrageous intention to break up our carefully prepared organization and strengthen their own. Every time the word "Chlefy" is mentioned, no matter to what it refers we feel murderous and get a dark brown taste in our mouths. Of course to ourselves we admit that most of our policumen are not strictly first class, but thev all supported our Mayor, which over balances anything they may have done or are doing now, which if done by Republicans would right fully qualify (hem for a term In "Castle Caldwell." What does it matter if our Poor Hoard turned out forty Republi cans or that the York (Demo cratic) nonpartisan Council is re moving lis enemies from office everybody knows that Democrats are always better than Republi cans and therefore turning them out would very properly be for the good of the service. We feel sick at heart when we think of what they are doing now, but when our thoughts turn to next November, when our magnificent and generous boss or rather leader is running for Gov ernor, and what they will l»e able to do us with their strengthened organization, we could wail In sorrow and gnash our teeth In rage. For, If we lose the city our leader may say, "Oh, ye of little wit and courage, have I brought you safely through the wilder ness of constant defeat, Into the promised land of Political Power, where the honey (spelled with an m) can be found wherever you look, only to have you lose It all, at the very time when I am hi need of help." The only thing left for us to do, is to continue trying to fool the public in our paper.' ' Patterson, O. H. Backenstoe, Charles IJ. Bailey, E. K. Beidlenian, Charles H. Bergner, John T.

Committee Calls on Judge Following the meeting of the Dau phin county bar yesterday afternoon the committee appointed to wait upon President Judge Kunkel and acquaint him with the action of the attorneys, called upon the presiding Judge la chambers. Chairman Gilbert Informed the Judge of the bar's action and pre sented him with the resolution which, as Chairman Gilbert put It. "was bril liantly and unanimously carried." In accepting President Judge Kun kel said: Mr. Chairman and Gentlemen of the Bar: The compliment contained In the resolution which you have presented me I fully appreciate, ■and I know comes from sincere and true friends. During the past . months I have been In receipt of a number of communications not only from residents of Dauphin county, but from many other parts of the State, offering their support in case I should be a can didate for the office of Justice of the Supreme Court at the coming election. It has been with great interest also that I have noted the frequent mention of my name by the newspapers in connection with so exalted and so responsible a position. The ambition for pre ferment Is a laudable one, and the wish of loyal friends in so Impor tant a matter ought not without good reason to be disregarded. In compliance with your request I now submit mv candidacy «o the electors of the State, with the as surance that yon nnd all those de siring mv elevation to this high office will leave nothing undone that zeal and honest effort can accomplish to secure a full ex pression of t'>e peonle of the Commonwealth on this subject. Entire Bar at Meeting Dauphin county's entire bar except those few perhaps, who were out of the city or 111, attended the meeting yesterday afternoon at which the reso lutions were adopted calling upon President Judge Kunkel to be a candi iate for Justice of the Supreme Court. Senior and Junior bar—a nonparti san bar composed of Republican, Democratic, Washington and Keystone attorneys, and a visitor or two from county bars—all were represented. A dozen or more lawyers praised Judge Kunkel's qualities for the position on the Supreme bench. Among these was James Scarlet, the famous Danville attorney who has not only gained a State-wide reputation for his conduct of the Capitol graft trials, but who haß an equal reputation throughout the country. I to the bar of Dauphin county and to; the people of Pennsylvania. We'll be sorry to lose Judge Kunkel; sorry to l lose his ability; but his gain will be' the gain and benefit of the State." John Fox WeldN, ex-District Attorney —"Judge Kunkel enjoys more than any | other justice, not even excepting my I honored father, Judge Weiss, the ab solute confidence of this bar. He is eminently fitted to sit upon the bench of the Supreme court. He wouldn't simply occupy a seat; he would assume his full share of responsibilities. As district attorney I sat here for seven years and I soon learned to ijuage the breadth and depth of Judge Kunkel. So, in seconding the adoption of this resolution, I say that Judge Kunkel Is eminently qualified in everv way to go from this bench to the higher position —the bench of the Supreme court of this Commonwealth." John E. Eox—"lt is of high import ance to our bar to have this compli ment paid to Judge Kunkel. He Is known from the Delaware to the west ern confines of our Commonwealth, from the northern to the southern tier." E. W. Jackson—"He is, in learning, Judgment, training and character ex ceptionally qualified for a position on the Supreme bench. But, I say bluntly, that I believe this bar would lose more that it would gain by the elevation of Judge Kunkel to the Supreme court." Senator E. E. fleldlen-an—"l do not need to extol Judge Kunkel's qualities and virtues: we all know him. What we wont to do is to take ofT our coats and get out and tell the people of Pennsylvania about it—to tell them that he is the best Common Pleas Judge In Pennsylvania to-day. And when they say the other man is Just as good, then be prepared to come back at them and say the other Isn't as well fitted, either by training or experience." Jair en Scarlet, Danville "To my mind the bar of Dauphin county Is con ferring a great honor upon the people of Pennsylvania by this action to-dav. No man's work in this Commonwealth is more widely known than Is Judge Kunkel's. His unswerving fidelity to duty, his great legal ability, his un flinching courage lias made him known to all. And I say to you that In nam ing Judge Kunkel you name the win ning candidate.
