TO COMPLETE STEPS
NORTH TO MACLAY

Job Below Reading Railroad
Bridge Now Practically
Finished
TWO STEAM SHOVELS GOING
Working Night and Day on Sewer;
Men Overcome in
Tunnel
Ginger of all kinds Is seen in the
work now under way along the River
Front. The job is practically com
plete south of the Philadelphia and
Reading Railroad bridge and the steps
will be finished to Market street with
in the next few days. Then will follow
as rapidly as possible the granolithic
walk, which will enable Commissioner
Taylor, of the Park Department, to
restore the parking along the front
south of the Market street bridge.
This morning the Stucker Brothers
Construction Company Installed an
other steam shovel north of Calder
street, and it will be possible with the
two shovels going steadily, to clear up
the low shore line west of the retain
ing wall. This will also enable the
contractors to complete the fill back
of the steps so that the concrete work
can go rapidly forward without In
terruption.
Yesterday a record was made in the
construction of stringers, thirty-two
having been built during the day. If
the work on the steps proceeds as rap
idly It ought to be possible to com
plete the whole job between Calder
and Maclay streets by September.
Meanwhile Commissioner Taylor, co
operating with Commissioner Lynch,
head of the Department of Streets and
Public Improvements, will complete
arrangements for transferring the dirt
from the subway at Second and Mul
berry streets to the narrow stretches
north of Calder. Mr. Taylor is also
In communication with the few own
ers of property who have not yet
transferred their frontage to the city
for park purposes, and hopes to have
everything in shape to complete the
park work as soon as the contractors
are through with the wall.
Til unci For Sewer
Of all the improvement work that
1s now being carried on in the city,
perhaps none Involves so much engi
neering ingenuity as the construction
of the sewer immediately south of
Mulberry Street to take care of the
drainaee after the new subways are
completed.
Tn order to save time and expense It
was considered advisable to attempt
the plan of tunneling beneath the
earth's surface instead of excavating
to the surface. Tn some 'instances the
tunnel had to be driven at a depth
of more than twenty feet. Roeks in
many cases had to be cut away or
even blasted. The working space is
so small that not more than two men
can be on duty at one time.
Night work is necessary as well as!
daylight work in order to hurry the
Job. T.lnes of electric wiring have!
been stretched on temporary poles!
and lowered Into the hole. By the |
light of electric bulbs the work is
pushed ahead. Earth is removed by
the great bucketfuls by swinging It
up with a steam derrick. Now and,
then the„iuen beneath the surface en-'
counter sewer and other gases and!
not infrequently they have to he
brought to the surface to he revived,
while on a number of occasions the
victims had to he taken to the Harris
burg Hospital for treatment.

VILLA'S ARMY IS
VICTORIOUS; READY
10 PUSH CAMPAIGN
Only Two or Three Points of Fed
eral Defense on Road to
Mexico City
By Associated Press
El Paso, Texas, July 10. —The
speedy return of General Villa's army
southward from Chihuahua City to re
sume the campaign against Mexico
City was predicted here to-day follow
ing the receipt of advices from Tor
reon that the internal peace confer
ence was finally ended and a report
of its transactions soon would be
given to the press.
With Guadalajara in Constitutional
ist hands and San Luis Potosi be
sieged, there remain only two or three
points of defense for the Federals be
tween the national capital and the
southern edge of the territory con
trolled by the revolutionists. On the
east General Pablo Gonzales, with an
army of 20,000 men. holds dominion
from the border to San Luis Potosi,
twenty-four hours by rail from Mexico
City,
Jn the center, General Villa's di
vision occupies the country from
Juarez to Aguas Calientes, eighteen
hours' travel from the Capital City.
To the west General Obregon has
stretched his lines so far as Guadala
jara. second largest city in the re
public and within six hours' ride by
railway of the central goal.
One San Luis Potosi is captured
the three military divisions will con
verge on Mexico City, according to
assertions made in El Paso to-day by
both Carranza and Villa followers.
When this combination is made, 60,-
000 men will be available for the
movement against the ultimate goal.
It was predicted here that this con-1
centration would take place at Colaya,
State of Gunanajuato, and eight hours'
ride from Mexico City. This point is
a junction of national railways from
Guadalajara, Aguas Calientes and San
Luis Potosi.
Before the three armies arrive there
two or three strongly fortified towns
held by Huerta's troops, including
Guanajuato ond Silao, must be cap
tured. From Celaya the combined
armies would have before them only
one fortified city. This Is Querataro,
ninety miles from Mexico City and the
place where Huerta, according to gen
eral belief, intends to make his last
stand.

Robbers Believed to Have Crossed
Missouri River and Started
Southward
By Associated Press
St. Louis, Mo., July 10.—The tw<>
masked bandits who held up the west
hound "Katy Flyer" on the Missouri,
Kansas and Texas Railroad near Mat
son, Mo., sixty miles northwest of (St.
Louis last night, captured a track
walker who surprised them as they
were robbing the train and took him
away with them.
This was learned from members of
the train crew this morning. The
story of the robbery was told by A.
L. Mudd, conductor of the train, and
by John Snadley, engineer.
The train, which left St. Louis at
8.32 last night for Texas, stopped at
Matson, Mo., on the north bank of the
Missouri river at 10.15. There the
bandits, of whom there were only two,
are supposed to have boarded the
train.
After the train had gone a short
distance the engineer heard a noise
behind him and turning saw a man
with two revolvers levelled at him.
Train Is Stopped
"He told me to stop the train," said
the engineer, "and I did so. Then he
told the fireman to run back and un
couple the train between the last ex
press car and the first passenger car."

and the bandits forced the engineer

American Women
Will Not Take Orders
on Length of Cloaks
By Associated Press
New York, July 10. —The American
woman refuses to lie dictated to in the
matter of the length of her coats and
suits. This is the opinion expressed
to-day by the executive committee of
the Cloak, Suit and Skirt Manufac
turers' Protective. Association in de
clining to promulgate any style lengths
for the coming season.
"We believe," says the committee's
statement, "that the matter of lengths
is year by year becoming of less im
portance in determining style. Indi
viduality of design and adaptability
to the needs of American women of
! all grades of society is the controlling
j factor. In the next place, the style of
tc-day, even if declared by us, would
I not be the style of to-morrow. W'e are
unanimously of the conclusion that to
make a declaration would only be mis
leading and would give undue impor
tance to the matter of length."
