MI. CONFESSES HE
ISMOMIIT
Arrested Through Col. Hutchison,
Chief of Police,

WAS A "ONE MAN JOB"
Broke Down When Confronted by
District Attorney and
Witnesses
•£*:
FRANK G. HOHL
Man "Who Confessed to
Robbing Altoona Bank
Confessing that he was the Altoona j
rank bandit, search for whom has i
been carried on for several days,
Frank G. Hohl, alias Wilson, of Har
risburg. to-day admitted that he had
taken $2,800 from the Altoona bank
last month, after shooting Cashier Ru
pert. Rupert will recover, it is said
to-day.
This information was received to
day by Chief of Police Hutchison, and
It followed hard on a letter received
by Chief Hutchison from James N.
Tilliard, Altoona's chief of police, in
which Tilliard said that the Harris
burg chief's tip had brought about
Kohl's arrest.
Hohl was brought back to Altoona
last night and has been identified by
a number of persons. The man's action i
at Pittsburgh in trying to escape by
suddenly throwing a cup of coffee in
the face of his captor, served to I
strengthen the conviction that the po
lice really had the man who perpe
trated the daylight robbery.
Commenting on the part played by I
the Harrisburg police the Mirror, Al
toona, says in part:
"Chief Hutchison had been making!
an effort to get a line on Hohl and
about the same time that the robbery j
was committed learned that the man
had mailed a letter at Gallitziu, Pa., i
to a friend in Harrisburg. When Chief
Hutchison heard of the Altoona bank
robbery he at once got into communi
cation with Tilliard and suggested that
there might be some connection be
tween Hohl and the robber if they
were not of the same same identity.
The picture sent from Harrisburg of
Hohl while not positively identified at
11 ret, was later recognized by restau
rant employes where Hohl took his
meals. Information about Hohl going
to Gallitzin, furnished by Colonel Hut
e also proved correct, and he was
trailed from Gallitzin to Salem, Ohio."
When searched in Jail last evening
two SIOO bills, a S2O bill and two fine
saws were found sewed in HoWs
clothes.
Butcher Shot by Hohl
A news dispatch from Pittsburgh to
day says that Philip Steinmiller, a
butcher, was heir* up and shot In his
crowded store here March 7, to-day

FALLING WATERS
SHOW FLOOD DID
WALL UTILE HARM
Thursday Meeting Will Decide
When Work Will likely Be
Started
WORK ON PARK REPAIRS
Efforts Will Be Put Forth to Put
Recreation Spots Into
Shape
Now that the Susquehanna river is I
rapidly receding to its normal level j
there is opportunity of investigating
the effect of the recent flood upon the !
unfinished work along the river front. ;
There appears to have been lit.tie or <
no damage done and the protection of j
the wall when it shall have been '
finally completed is certain to bo all
that the engineers contemplated.
A massive tree trunk has lodged
along the bank near the water plant,
but this can be easily removed.
Tons of ashes have accumulated at,
the water works, but with the re
sumption of sidewalk and other work j
these cinders will probably soon dis- j
appear. One of the most, attractive!
features of the river front has been !
the beautiful planting around the
water works. Even inside the engine
rooms the windows are beautifully
decorated with plants and vines, which
are much admired by all who walk
along the river, and these can be num
bered in the thousands.
It is expected that the parks will
soon "be put in order and that the
damage done by wagons and carts at
several points will be repaired, one
of the worst spots in this respect is
near State street, where the carts have
almost destroyed the fine sod.
Effects of Water
While the water has not fallen to
the height of the foot wall along the
"front steps of Harriaburg," it has
receded sufficiently to expose the fin
ished section of steps and the string
ers of the unfinished portion. And,
as had been expected by the engineers
of the Board of Public Works, the
water has done little..lf any, damage.
Here and there some of the nil
has been gouged out where eddies
swirled close to the shore; the string
ers themselves are unharmed. On the
other hand, the water served to pack
more densely the cinder fill and in
crease the stability of the protecting
material for the interceptor.
Because of the high water it has
been impossible for the contractors to
go ahead with the work for the sum
mer, but It is figured that within a
week the conditions will be in such
shape as to warrant a start. Definite
agreement between contractors and
the Board of Public Works will be
| reached at Thursday's meeting of the
i board, it is expected.

Gorgas Suggests Disposing of Se-j

MAY FLOAT LARGER AMOUNT
—. . i
Sinking Fund Commission Will
Consider Both Matters,
It Is Reported
Plans for Issuing at least sloo,ooo'
worth of 1913 public improvement 1
bonds will be completed by the eltyj
sinking fund commissioners at a meet*- <
lng to-morrow evening.
The commissioners will likely con-1
sider a suggestion by City Commis-i
Eloner \V. L. Gorgas. Superintendent!
of Finance and Accounts, for what,
will be a radical change in the method i
of disposing of bonds.
In brief the finance superintendent's;
scheme is to dispose of the bonds to >
the successful bidder for any particu-j
lar improvement contract instead of j
cash, a plan now being followed pretty
generally by the city in paying for the |
small sewers and paving jobs.
Legal advice as to whether this I
procedure can be followed has been |
asked of City Solicitor D. S. Seltz byl
Air. Gorgas and it is expected that!
the opinion will be ready by to-mor-]
row evening.
The meeting of the sinking fund!
[commission, the first to be held under
' the new Clark commission form of |
government, will be held at 7.30
| o'clock in the offices of Mr. Gorgas. j
' The commissioners consist of Mayor j
| John K. Royal, chairman; Commls
-1 sloner Gorgas and City Treasurer O.
IM. Copelin. County Controller H. W.
Gough. ex-City Controller, has been
; invited to attend the meeting because
\ of hts familiarity with the previous
issues of city bonds.
What Ordinance Authorizes
The commission to-morrow evening
will decide on the amount of bonds to
be issued and probably will fix the; i
■ time for advertising for bids, provided |<
, the old method is followed. The ordi- i
! nance passed several weeks ago au- j
! thortzed the Issue of SIOO,OOO worth of i -
i the $300,000 issue voted for by the peo-'
] pie last Fall The bonds are to be 4 per | ]
| cent, interest bearing, and the bidding 11
will be as usual for par and accrued'
'interest. If the. securities cannot be j
! sold at i per cent. —and the condition ; 1
of the money market, It is held in mu- 1
1 nlcipal circles, may preclude this—the i :
' ordinance will have to be amended by 1
Council to provide an Increase In the 1
| interest rate.
While the ordinance authorizes the!
i issue of SIOO,OOO, the sinking fundi
! commission will determine whether |
; interest can be provided to insure the!
I sale of more than this sum. If this |
jean be done, possibly $125,000 or even
I more may be floated.
Of the amount that It was hoped to
use this summer, about $50,000 of the
! SIOO,OOO would be needed, it is esti
! mated, for the Department of Streets
i and Public Improvements for the con
| struction of sewers, and $25,000 for
j the asphalt plant; about $50,000, it is
expected, would be necessary for the
Department of Parks and Public Prop-1
erty for park development, and prob-1
ably SIO,OOO -for fire apparatus.

bY NEW DIRECTOR
Special to The Telegraph
Bethlehem, Pa., April 7. —Enthusi-
astic approval of the Harrisburg
Choral Society, which he characterizes
as a great living organ, marked the
utterance of Dr. J. Fred Wolle, its
leader, when seen at his home in
Bethlehem to-day. Dr. Wolle also
paid a remarkable tribute to his prede
cessor, Dr. Gilchrist, of Philadelphia.
Dr. Wolle said:
"When you ask me for an opinion
of the Harrisburg Choral Society and
of the prospects of the Easter music
festival on April 14 you place me in a
somewhat delicate position. You must
remember that I am almost a stranger
In Harrisburg, but I have been
adopted by the choral society at least,
and I expect to do my part toward
making the festival a huge success.
But my part will be a small one; with
a chorus of 2Co added to an orchestra
of 40 and 1? soloists, it is evident that
I will represent only the one three
hundred-and-seventeenth part of the
combination.

sive vocal chords. If the rendition of
'Elijah' is a great performance it will
not be by reason of the new leader,
not by reason of the visiting: orchestra
and soloists l , but it will be because you
j have here a devoted band of men and
women who have given themselves
| unreservedly to the work in hand;
whose attendance at rehearsals shows
a remarkably high percentage; whose
willingness and enthusiasm know no
bounds, and whose endurance knows
no end. It is a chorus of tremendous
j virility yet not lacking refinement. It
I combines unusual solidity of tone with
j capacity for extreme plasticity of ex
! presslon. The society is an asset of
which any city might be proud.
Founded nineteen years ago, it has
steadily progressed to a high standard
of efficiency, and the rendition of
'Elijah' will be the result of sys
tematic training covering a period 01
years.
Praises Gilchrist
"Whatever success attends the com
ing concerts, the credit for the major
portion thereof must be given to the
man who has led the society from
success to success during the nineteen
years of the society's existence and
; who was unable to continue his work
i this year on account of sickness. I
refer to the honored former leader,
| Dr. W. W. Gilchrist, of Philadelphia,
I forwhich I cherish the highest re
j gard."

Washington, April 7.—Fifteen days
of public hearings beginning on April
9 on the Sims bill to reßeal the Pan
ama tolls exemption, were decided
upon to-day by the Senate Canals
Committee.
Administration supporters pressing
for a minimum of delay in getting the
Sims bill out fo committee professed

days of hearings provided added time
was not reserved for consideration of
the bill after hearings are over. The
hearings wilf give opportunity for
threshing out various amendments,
principal among them one to reaffirm
the sovereignty of the United States
over the canal zone and its right un
der the treaty to grant an exemption
to coastwise ships if it desired to do
so.
