Pa.; May 13.—This town gives promise of making greater strides in the line of progress this year than In many years past. On the nineteenth of May, the voters of the borough will vote on improvement loan.

MOUNT HOLLY CUY WORKS SHUT DOWN Disagreement Between Owners of Towns' Two Industries Causes Suspension of Business Special to The Telegraph Carlisle, Pa., May 13.—As the result of orders issued by S. M. Kitzmiller, of Shippensburg, who recently pur chased the property of the Mount Holly Paper Company at Mount Holly Springs, consisting of two paper mills, the land on which Hilly Park is situ ated, and several hundred acres of woodland, the Cumberland Clay Works, the only Industry of any Im portance at present operating in the town was closed to-day. Forty men are out of work and business in the town is at a practical standstill. The closing of the plant of the Clay Company which mines a superior j quality of white clay used in the niak jing of tiles and bricks, came as the result of a disagreement between Mr. Kitzmiller and W. S. Russell of the Cumberland works. There is a spur track on the Gettysburg and Harris burg Railroad which runs from Holly through the gap to the property of the clay company. At one point It crosses a spur of land belonging formerly to the Mt. Holly Paper Company, now the property of Mr. Kitzmiller. It is claimed by Mr. Russel that he has ordered the railroad to send no more ears to the clay banks and that he In tends to tear up the track. The reason given is that the water from the banks, carrying with It some white clay, is draining Into the pleasure dam at Molly Park. This Mr. Russel claims was due some months ago to the frosts and was later remedied. On Friday there was a |cloudburst in that section and a small dam used to hold water for milling purposes was torn away. The banks |are accordingly draining into Holly I lake. It is claimed, however, that Kitzmiller did not give an opportunity to repair the dam before issuing his I order. The company lias been using the track In question for about five years and pays a small sum annual as ground rent. This, it is claimed, was paid until May and a check has been dispatched for the next three months. The haul to Mount Holly which is about two miles is claimed by Mr. Russel to be almost Impossible and the plant has accordingly suspended op erations. About forty men, all of them residents of Holly and doing business in that town are without any source of income. •Since the property of the Mount | Holly Paper Company was purchased by the Shlppensburg man there has been considerable trouble between him and the residents. Some mon'hs ago the proposition was made that if the property be exonerated from taxes the paper mill would be reopened. The property Is assessed at about 160,000 and if taxes were taken off would raise the tax on the other property several mills. The borough council refused, claiming that it was not Just to the citizens of the town and further more that they were not able to grant the exoneration. The mills were not opened and In consequence there Is lit tle work in the town. Railways Men Hear Paper and Go Home Edmund James Cattell, city statis tician of Philadelphia, addressed the members of the Pennsylvania Street Railways Association at the Board of Trade this morning and after a dis cussion of questions submitted yester day to the question box a paper on "An Analysis of Damage Claims Aris ing from Street Railways Transpor tation" was read by Cecil Rice, super intendent of the claim department of the Pittsburgh Railways Company.

They talk glumly about poor orderw and a disinclination on the part of customers to buy goods beyond their barest necessities. Trade condi tions. It is true, are far from normal, but no fundamental weakness that can be seen, is responsible for them. Hank deposits have seldom been as large as are now reported. Of idle capital we have indeed a surfeit. When money is so easy and there is so great a quantity of it stacked up In our bank vaults, it is impossible to have any crisis such as marks the coming of a panic. Nor can this capital remain long unemployed, for Its owners will wish to make it earn a profit. What grips the country just now is "General Apathy,' who is in full command of sentiment. His worthy lieutenant, "Uncertainty," has made corporations and merchants hold back until the skies are less clouded. Prosperity goes hand in hand with the new wealth a country produces. What is our outlook in this connec tion? On Bounteous Mother Earth and Nature we must largely depend for our new wealth, and consequently prosperity. She has not failed us thus far this year. Crop reports are of the most brilliant character. We have had plenty of moisture all over the country, and we need now only apprehend drought or such destruction as can arise from the attacks of insect life. Where there has been plenty of moist ure such dangers are minimized. Al ready we know that we shall probably have the largest winter wheat harvest we have ever raised. This crop re duced to a cash basis, means a rich store of available capital this summer and Fall with which to do business. After all the ominous rumors afloat about the condition of the Rock Island, the report of Expert McKenna, who was employed by the bondholders' protective committee to investigate into the financial requirements of the road, shows the rumors to have been Mellen Will Testify Tomorrow; Inquiry Will Continue, Says Folk Hx Associated Press Washington, May 13.—Charles 8. Mellen, former president of the New York, New Haven and Hartford Rail road, will testify to-morrow before the Interstate Commerce Commission in its Inquiry into the New Haven's af fairs, notwithstanding earlier indica tions that the inquiry might be end ed lest immunity be given witnesses. After adjournment of the hearing early in the day until next Monday, Mr. Folk, chief counsel for the com mission, and Interstate Commerce Commissioner McChord went to the Attorney General's office, where Sena tor Kern of Indiana, and Senator Nor ris, of Nebraska, had preceded them. Within a few minutes Mr. McChord and Mr. Folk left the conference show ing evidences of excitement. Asked why he had left, Counsel Folk re plied : "The conduct of Mr. Mcßeynolds w:.s such that we did not care to re main." Mr. Mcßeynolds read a letter sent to the Interstate Commerce Commis sion yesterday in which he suggested that the commission consider care fully the effect of the examination of Mr. Mellon and others on any crim inal prosecution which the government might desire hereafter to institute. After the conference. Senator Norris, author of the resolution which insti tuted the New Haven inquiry, went to Mr. Folk's office. At the conclusion of this meeting Mr. Folk said: "We are going right ahead with this investigation and Mr. Mellen and directors of the New Haven will be put on the stand. We are going to bring out the truth—the whole truth —no matter whom it hits or whom it hurts." NO SUNDAY BASEBALL Sunbury, Pa., May 13.—John H.

The road will not need more than $33,000,000 in the next thre years. This Is not $65,000,000, so first reported. But the bud reports succeeded in their purpose in enabling some people to pick up Rock Island bonds cheaply, and they are now able to see a nice profit as a result of their better prior knowledge of the actual condition of the property. Investigators for the government pro geting closer and closer to the root of the actual financial operations which were responsible for the New Haven's high financing. It was disclosed by the Interstate Commerce Commission that a comparatively unknown Connec ticut. coal dealer dealt in millions of the road's securities, and he. too, found it. advantageous to burn all books re lating to his transactions. This wan ton destruction of the records of such important transactions is damning evi dence that there are some things which must have been concealed, which big men on the inside wanted to hide. It was also shown that the New Haven under Mellen spent in one year over $350,000 on advertising to mould public opinion, whereas the New York Central spent but $12,000 for advertis ing and the Pennsylvania but $7,000. But all this money was wasted, and for the good it accomplished might as well have been thrown into the sea,for New Haven stock kept going down and down, simply because the public could detect the devil's horns behind all this publicity. Municipal bonds continue in good demand. The large Baltimore issue was subscribed twice over. The gen eral market shifted back and forth waiting on developments. It could not be said it was over-strong, nor was it inherently weak. Standard Oil shares were weak on account of the continued reduction In prices of oils. Such pub lic utilities as reported earnings dur ing the week made a good showing, though the increases were slightly less than the average they heretofore have reported. The steel and copper trade are in a state of lethargy. "Giggler" to Make Fun For Paxtang Patrons Paxtang Park will be officially open ed Saturday, May 23.
