AH Employes Must Lose Time if
They Go Away For Rest
and Pleasure
Even with prospects for an increase
in freight rates, retrenchment days
are not yet over on the Pennsylvania
railroad. The latest cut has been in
vacations with full pay. This order
hits every department. It also means
that many railroaders will cut out sea
shore trips and put m their vacation
time fishing or in the country where
expenses are not so nigh.
Heretofore it has been the custom
to give trainmen and employes of cer
tain departments a week or ten days"
vacation with pay. Now these em
ployes will have to lose their time
when they are off, and while it is not
stated in the order, it is understood
that the mon will be expected to take
a vacation, unless their services are
badly needed.
Officials explain this cut as one re
sult of the wage decision of a year
ago. They say that some of the de
mands made by the men for extra
pay when out longer than their work
required, were unreasonable and in
accepting the increased pay the com
pany also decided to cut out certain
privileges. It was also stated that
everybody did not get a vacation with
pay, and for this reason it was not fair
to some employes.

Royal Family Given
Protection at Races
By Associated Press
London, June 16. Never before
have such precautions been taken to
guard members of the royal family
from the sufEragettes as were taken
to-day at the Ascot race course. The
opening of the leading society race
meeting found more than 1,000 Lon
don policemen and hundreds of detec
tives from Scotland Yard assembled
on the historic course as reinforce
ments for the regular Berkshire coun
ty police force which had been mobi
lized in full strength.
The six mile route from Windsor
Castle to the course was lined all the
■way by policemen. *
The militants, in spite of the queen's
threat to cancel the rest of the sea
son's social engagements, showed
themselves more determined than ever
to obtain publicity for their cause by
attacking the king.
The arrangements for guarding the
entrance to the royal enclosure on the
race course were more stringent than
ever. Every applicant for a ticket
had to be vouched for by some re
sponsible official.

Beautiful Homes Just Completed
When C. L. Long completed a num
ber of homes of the semi-bungalow
type, at Green and Woodbine streets,
last year, he gave to Ilarrisburg a
new and distinctive type of dwelling
that met with instant favor on the
part of the local public. The sale of
the entire group was a matter of but
a few months. Immediately huilding
operations were started on six more
homes of the same type on Woodbine
street, and although completed only
a few weeks ago, two of them have al
ready been sold and are occupied.
The remaining four houses are now
being offered for sale at reasonable
prices and on attractive terms. Not
only are these homes distinctive in
general outline, an idiH of which can
be gathered from thu illustration, but
in their construction, completeness of
detail, and excellent finish, as well.

ASSISTING BANKERS
[Continued From First Pa«c]
State Department, through its con
trol of Nicaraguan customs houses, has
forced the Republic to redeem at par
$6,250,000 of bonds ksued by Zelaya,
later repudiated, and bought in at
about 25 per cent, of their face value
by Brown Brothers and Seligman &
Co., American bankers in
Nicaraguan financing.
"The sole beneficiaries of the fraud
upon a friendly Republic," says the
resolution, "were the Brown Brothers,
Seligman & Co. and Speyer & Co. and
their allies."
The resolution also charges that the
Nicargaguan National Railway was
sold much below its value to the bank
ers, and that the last election in Nicar
agua was intentionally influenced bl
ithe presence of United States troops In
violation of the treaty with Nicar
agua.
Ernest H. Wands, financial agent
for Nicaragua, the resolution says, was
designated by tlie State Department in
the interest of the bankers.
American Subjects
Returning to Capitol
Mexico City, June 16. —Optimism is
increasing here in all circles with re
gard to the outcome of the peace nego
tiations at Niagara Falls. The Foreign
Minister, Esteva Ruiz, said last night
that to-day he probably would give
out the details of what had been ar
ranged by the mediators at Niiagara
Falls.
Many of the prominent Americans
who went to Vera Cruz after the port
was occupied by the Americans, are
returning to the capital. This is taken
here as a sign that the difficulties be
tween Mexico and the United States
will be settled at an early date.
Commanders Evans, of the United
States cruiser Albany, has sent his
thanks to the Mexican authorities at
Salina Cruz for the aid given by them
to a number of American sailors when
a boat in which the sailors were going
to Salina Cruz sank. Mexican sol
diers rescued the sailors and then
turned them over to Commander
Evans.
