11. S. IS (IB
DECLM
ers to-day were on the alert for a
counter move by Huerta and awaiting
the development of any positive atti
tude by Carranza, the Constitutionalist
chief. The sporadic outbreak in Nuevo
Laredo, where evacuating federals
fired across the liio Grande and drew
a pelting of bullets from the American
border patrol, and the reported arrest
of several Americans by Huertista au
thorities at Orizaba scarcely served to
alter an already absorbing situation.
Officials to-day awaited news of the
reception by Carranza of" a telegram
sent by Constitutionalists in Washing
ton advising liim to remain neutral
and declaring the United States in
intended to withdraw its forces from
Vera CVuz as soon as reparation for
Huerta's offenses had been obtained.
A ray of hope that the Constitutional
ists would remain neutral was con
tained in reported utterances of Villa,
the military chief under Carranza.
Despite that, however, many officials
declined to rest assured and the
strengthening of the border patrol con
tinued to-day.
Must Be "Properly Treated"
Representative Kent, of California,
took to the White House to-day a tele
gram from a friend in El Paso whom
he described as well informed stating
that in his opinion the Constitutional
ists woula remain quiet if "propcrlv
treated."
Huerta. in the anti-American atmos
phere of Mexico City that was marked
last night by desecration of a statue
of George Washington, might make a
definite move to-day, it was thought.
Since he had given the American
charge his passports, a positive decla
ration of war would not be surprising
to officials here. His next move, it
was believed, would develop whether
it would be necessary for the Ameri-
now in complete possession
of v era Cruz to proceed farther—per
haps to Huerta's capital.
While officials of the War and Navy
Departments worked under stress in
preparation for any eventualities,
Colonel Goethfiis, in Panama, had or
dered the canal zone placed on a spe
cific war footing and Texas troops
were ordered toward the border to
help regular troops patrol districts
where there was any danger of out
breaks or raiding by marauders from
south of the Rio Grande. Congress
had its share in the crisis by enacting
the volunteer army bill, which the
President was expected to sign to-day.
It provides means for raising a volun
teer army in emergencies.
Order Being Restored
Meanwhile Rear Admiral Badger
with his marines and bluejackets was
restoring order in Vera Cruz. The
sinister cost of the first move in the
war drama was shown by official fig
ures that 17 Americans perished and
( a were wounded in the seizure of the
Mexican port. That was more than
i e ., casua ',t' es °' naval engagements
of the entire Spanish-American War,
when 16 Americans were killed and
68 wounded. Official messages early
to-day reported that the wounded on
the hospitaJ ship in Vera Cruz harbor
were satisfactorily responding to treat
ment.
Inquiries over the disposition of the
bodies of the marines and bluejackets
who perished in the seizure of Vera
Cruz reached the War Department to
day. Representatives Moore and Vare
of Pennsylvania, were Informed that
the victims of the housetop snipers
would be returned to their home towns
by the firoverninent on northbound
ships.

HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH
FRIHH MAY
ABSORB PI. STEEL
[Continued From First Page]
been abroad in Steelton to the effect
that the Steel Company contemplated
a number of sweeping changes in its
executive force.
One of these rumors is to the effect
that William H. Donner, now t at the
head of the Cambria Steel Company,
is to be made the executive head of
the Pennsylvania Steel Company, suc
ceeding E. C. Felton, the present pres
ident of the company. One of the
largest individual stockholders of the
Steel Company hereabouts yesterday
said that Mr. Donner would come to
Steelton on or about June 1. Another
rumor afloat is to the effect that John
W. Dougherty, former general super
intendent of the Steelton plant, is to
return as vice-i>resident, replacing J.
V. W. Reynders, now vice-president.
Reynilers Wouldn't Talk
Mr. Reynders, when shown copies
of the stories printed in yesterday's
papers, declined to say anything lor
publication. "I am not In a position
to make any comment," he said.
An effort to have some of the ru
mors either confirmed or denied from
other sources met with little success.
One man who has followed the history
of the company carefully intimated
that it was his belief that no changes
in the ownership or control of the
local company would be made, but
that there would be several changes in
the personnel of the management.
Friends of Vice-President Reynders,
however, expressed the opinion that
there was no foundation to the ru
mors. They pointed to the great im
provements made to the local plant
under his management and averred
that it was highly improbable that
there would be any change while the
company's big extension plan was be
ing carried out.
Just recently the company an
nounced a change of policy. Instead
of depending solely upon the railroads
for orders, the equipment of the plans
will be changed to enable the com
pany to enter a wider field of opera
tions, especially along the lines of
structural steel manufacture. These
changes will cost in the neighborhood
of $10,000,000 to complete. To better
handle the changed output a new
company was organized with Mr.
Reynders as one of the principal in
corporators. This, friends of Mr.
Reynders point out. would preclude
the Idea of a change in the local man
agement while this Improvement plan
Is being carried out, at least.
Rumors Arc Current
Commenting on these rumors, which
seem to be current in the stock ex
change .as well as in Steelton, a Phila
delphia newspaper this morning says:
"Financial quarters heard a report
yesterday that the Frick-Donner
group, whlc-h is largely dominant in
the Cambria Steel Company, might
acquire the big stock holdings of the
Pennsylvania Railroad interest in the
Pennsylvania Steel Company and also
take over the controlling block of
Cambria Steel stock. Such a deal is
far from impossible. Whether it shall
develop or not, information received
in circles often well advised runs to
the effect that important managerial
changes are about to be made in the
Pennsylvania Steel Company.
"The understanding received is that
William H. Donner, now at the head
of the Cambria Steel Company,
where ho was placed by the Frick in
fluence, is to be made also either
president or chairman of the Pennsyl
vania Steel Company. It would be
likely for any changes contemplated
to be made at or immediately follow
ing the annual meeting, which comes
May 11. Under the Donner manage
ment the Cambria Steel Company
made a very line showing of earnings
for last year.
"The Pennsylvania Steel Company
has been obliged to discontinue divi
dends on its preferred stock. About a
year ago the controlling stock interests
provided $3,000,000 on a $10,000,000
program of rehabilitation of the
plants. If these interests, the Penn
sylvania Railroad and the Reading
Iron Company, intend to stay with
the property or to sell out, they in
either case would want to see operat
ing results better than have been got
out of the company under the Felton
management. The Cambria Steel Com
pany did not realize results under the
Stackhouse management, which satis
fied the forward-pressing Frlck in
terest."
The Philadelphia News Bureau In
commenting on the rumors lias this
to say:
"There are many rumors afloat as
to the merger or acquisition of the
Pennsylvania Steel Company by the
Frick-Donner interests. Officials have
refused to make any statement, but it
is likely to prove that the stories are
exaggerated. Last year when the al
leged Cambria Steel deal was first ex
ploited well informed people would
have been less surprised if the rumors
hud been in connection with Pennsyl
vania Steel Company. Bill in the end
the rumors did not materialize as to
the Cambria Steel Company, and but
little was said about Pennsylvania
Steel.
"Recently the Pennsylvania Steel
Company has entered upon plans for
the expansion of Us plant, which aro
well under way.
"It may be possible that these plans
will Include some changes in the con
duct of the company or the personnel
of the management, but it is said to
be unlikely that there will be any in
ownership or control."

CENTRAL PLAYGROUND
IS PRESENT PLAN
Big Recreation Spot May Be Built
on Cottage Hill by
Borough
A large public playground on Cot
tage Hill, fully equipped with all the
latest devices for outdoor recreation,
will be secured for the borough if
present plans of the Municipal League
materialize.
I Under the direction of the league
I last evening a meeting was held in
j the First Presbyterian Church to in
! crease interest in outdoor recreations.
W. B. Dickinson, of New York, asso
ciate secretary of the playgrounds and
Outdoor Recreations Associations of
America, was the speaker. He told
how the playgrounds and social center
idea has been worked out In other
cities. Following the address by the
expert on playgrounds the members
of the league, the ladies of the Civic-
Club and members of the School
Board, who were present held an in
formal meeting to discuss Steelton's
needs. The idea was suggested that in
stead of having several playgrounds
in various parts of the town it would
be better to have one large central
playground. The best place for this
would be on Cottage Hill, said one of
the members. At the present time, it
was pointed out, there are a number
of tennis courts being laid out here
and a baseball diamond has already
been built. Other additional tennis
courts could easily be provided and
the necessary equipment for the small
children could be added cheaply, it
was said.
Burgess Fred Wigfield was present
and in a short speech told how the
children were now forced to play in
the streets. This he said was danger
ous as well as unhealthy. He intimat
ed that he would be strongly in fa
vor of any move that would "give the
children more playgrounds.
The Municipal League will take
this matter up at its next meeting in
the early part of next month. If the
expense is not too great, said promi
nent members of the league this morn
ing, the Idea will be worked out.

M AGAIN GOES
AFTER STATE BOSS
Palmer Given Terrific Scoring by
Gubernatorial Candidate and
by Judge Bonniwell
Athens, Pa., Af. II 25.—The Ryan
campaign party left here to-day for
Wllliamsport after having given the
voters of the northern tier something
to think about. Both Mr. Ryan and
Judge Bonniwell made charges against
Congressman A. Mitchell Palmer. »
Mr. Ryan said: "Palmer became a
Wilson man when Wilson's success
seemed most certain. He was bound
hand and foot to Wilson by a resolu
tion introduced in the Democratic
State convention by the late Thomas
J. Ryan, of Philadelphia, instructing
the delegation from Pennsylvania to
vote for Wilson as long as his name
was before the convention. That reso
lution prevented Palmer from making
the delegation a thing of traffic and
trade, for, previous to the Harrisburg
convention he had induced Champ
Clark to believe that he was for htm,
and had persuaded Underwood that
he was for him.
"He has followed In national af
fairs the same "tactics he practiced in
Pennsylvania, for he was adviser and
companion and mouthpieco of Colonel
Guffey when the Colonel was rich, and
was the recipient from Senator Hall
of the campnign funds necessary to
elect him to Congress in 190S and
1910. and now he sounds the chief
note in the chorus of abuse against
his benefactor and paymaster!"
Judge Bonniwell, in his speech,
made direct and definite charges
against the main political assailants
of Mr. Ryan, and said:
"I charge that A. Mitchell Palmer
has not only violated the Federal stat
utes relating to solicitation of contri
butions from Federal employes, but
that he has not accounted, as required
by law, for moneys contributed to his
campaign funds; and that he is dis
qualified by that, fact from holding
place in Congress, If, indeed, he is not
presently liable to a prosecution for
perjury. I charge the Democratic
State organization of Pennsylvania
with a failure to account for funds.
This Is the first of transactions, indis
putable, which , at our own conveni
ence,, we Bhall present to the people of
Pennsylvania.
"T have a certificate of the account
filed in Washington by Rolla Wells,
APRIL 25,1914.

which shows that Voucher No. 1682,
dated October 31, 1912, In the sum of
| $15,000, was paid to James I. Blakslee
for organization purposes in the State
iof Pennsylvania. I ask of James I.
| Blakslee or A. Mitchell Palmer, when
land where was this money spent? I
charge that the account of Samuel
Kunkel, treasurer of the State Central
committee of Pennsylvania, contains
no record of this money or its dis
bursement. I charge that there has
been no account filed, so far as can
be ascertained by an inquiry at the
office of the Secretary of the Common
wealth in Harrisburg, that will show
,the expenditure of this money. (He
then quoted the corrupt practice law
,and continued:)
1 "I now call upon James I. Blakslee,
Fourth Assistant Postmaster General
j of the United States, to answer when
I and where he paid this money to the
; treasurer of a political committee; and
; if not, why he should not be indicted
i under this act?
i "I charge further that Samuel Kun

Central committee of Pennsylvania for
,the same campaign shows a payment
iof $4 50 to Harry D. Kutz on Novem

Included in his expense account. Upon
accusation being made against Kutz.
he explained that this $4 50 was paid

vouchor on file bear Mr. Palmer's sig
nature? Mr. Palmer was forced to
acknowledge the receipt of this
money; but if Mr. Kutz did not in
