    Greatest of All
Human Blessings
The most -wonderful thing In the world
la love expressed in the helpless Infant.
And among those aids and comforts for
expectant mothers is the well known
"Mother's Friend."
This is an external application to
enable the abdominal muscles to become
more pliant, to expand naturally without
undue pain from the strain upon cords
and ligaments.
In almost every settled community are
women who have enjoyed the blessing of
this famous remedial and helpful embro
cation. Their daughters have grown up
to learn of its splendid assistance.
Applied as directed upon those muscles
involved It soothes the fine network of
nerves with which all the muscles are
supplied. Thus a great share of the pains
BO much dreaded may bo avoided and tho
period of expectancy passed through in
ease and comfort.
Anything that adds so much comfort
must be counted as a blessing indeed.
In a little book sent by mall much use
ful information is given to inexperienced
mothers. It tells how to use "Mother's
Friend" and how to avoid ™aklng breasts.

Committed For Court Without
Bail; Say He Sped
Away
Special to The Telegraph
Lebanon. Pa., July 14. —Gilbert
Stewart, of Harrisburg, yesterday af
ternoon was committed to the county
Jail without bail by Alderman R. L.
Miller, of this city, on a charge of
manslaughter In the death of Claude
Witters, of Palmyra, who was killed
early Sunday morning in a mix-up
of two automobiles and a team at
West Annvllle.
Stewart was the driver of the car
which is alleged to have figured in
the fatal accident and sped away leav
ing Witters and his four companions
lying in the road. With Stewart in
the car were Joseph Demma, Preston
Blxton, George Huber and Theodore
Mageli, all of Harrisburg.
It has been established that the car
owned and driven by Roy Stauffer,
who is dying in the hospital here from
a fractured skull, first collided \vlth
the team of Wilbur Reed, of Syner,
and was then struck by the car
driven by Stewart. The question of
responsibility for Witters' death, the
probable fatal injury to Staufter and
serious injuries to Paul Zimmerman
and Chester Bruce, also in the hospital
remains to be solved.
Only two weeks ago Stauffer nar
rowly missed death in an accident
which resulted In the loss of his auto
mobile near Harrisburg.
SUBWAY OPEN AS

[Continued from First Page]
on the present line of the street about
200 feet south of the bridge, changes
the whole neighborhood materially
and has attracted much attention. It
is now possible to get the full effect
of the subway transformation. Here
tofore it has not been possible to see
Harris Park and the district south ow
ing to the high embankment of the
railroad bridge abutment; but now one
can see under the bridge and get a
view of the park south and beyond
Mulberry street.
Hastening Subway Work
Engineers were busy yesterday giv
ing the lines for the paving of the
new section of the street under the
bridge, and it is Commissioner Lynch's
idea that the street shall be asphalted
and put in permanent shape without
a day's unnecessary delay. Until this
shall have been done it is probable
that no start will be made on the sub
way at Second and Mulberry streets,
which is a* larger job and will consume
more time. Only those who have vis
ited the vicinity of Mulberry and Sec
ond streets cain realize the important
changes which are now under way.
Many buildings have already been re
moved and others are going as rapidly
as gangs of men can raze them. Mean
while work on the big sewer from Sec
ond street to the a tunnel far
under the surface, is going forward
night and day, and Commissioner
Lynch hopes that the disturbance to
traffic as far as Front stree is con
cerned will be a thing of the past in
a short time. He will not consent to
any shutting off of traffic in Second
street until arrangements shall have
been completed permitting an outlet
to South Harrisburg by way of Front
street.
Commissioner >ay:or, head of the
Department of Parks and Public Prop
erty, will open bids next Monday for
the transfer of the earth from the
proposed excavation at Second and
Mulberry streets to the narrow
stretches of the River Front from Ca'-
der street northward. It is expected
that active operations will begin about
the first of August.
If all the bosses on the various im
provement undertakings were as full
of energy and enthusiasm as Fore
man Williams, who is in charge of
the construction of the concrete work
along the river wall in the northern
part of the city, tnere would be no
question about the completion of all
the river work this summer. He has
broken the record on "stringers" two
or three times within the past week
and never stopped the work for a mo
ment yesterday during the heavy
shower in the afternoon. This work
has now proceeded to Gelger, between
Peffer and Maclay, and unless the re
cent showers raise the river too much
it is the expectation that this work
will be completed to Maclay street
by next week.
To Transfer Concrete Gangs
It Is the Intention of the Stucker
brothers Construction Company to
immediately transfer the concrete
gangs from one point to another as
rapirly as certain stretches of the
work are completed, so that all head
way possible may be made while the
season is favorable. There is no rea
son why the whole stretch between
Calder and Maclay streets cannot be
completed, steps, wall and walk, be
fore the first of October. The slowest
work thus far has been on the foot
wall, but more men will probably be
employed and it is likely that both
steam shovels will be pushed to their
capacity to clean up the space between
the low water line and the wall, this
material being necessary to fill in be
tween the slope and the steps.

are mapped out with a view to expe
diting the various undertakings dur
ing the summer period, especially in
view of the fact that much of the
work is reinforced concrete and it is
necessary to keep moving durhig the
favorable weather. There is still some
controversy over a water main cross
ing the channel of Paxton creek near
State street, but it is expected that
all these matters will be adjusted as
the work proceeds. There seems to be
no reason why the Paxton creek job
cannot be completed without diffi
culty this summer. It has been a slow
undertaking.
Some big sewer work is under way
In different parts of the city and pro-'
vision has been made for considerable
paving, the move important job being
that in Derry street toward the east
ern city line. There is much paving
yet to be done and the Central Con
struction and Supply Company is un
derstood to be making its preparations
to hurry along the work. Harrisburg
is already one of the best paved cities
in the country and strangers and vis
itors are constantly saying nice things
about the city's fine streets.

RAINY DAY TOYS
On days when children cannot be
out and play, the ingenuity and pa
tience of mothers are tested to the
utmost. Pamos pictures to cut and

WHEN "PRY" IS WET
When clothing and the nest raiment
is "dry cleaned" it does not mean
what the name usually implies.. Dry
cleaning consists of R gasoline rinsing
In which a certain kind of soap has
been dissolved which acts the same
as ordinary soap does In <Vater. It
removes all soil and grease spots with
out Injuring or shrinking the garment.

communication between Mexico City
and Vera Crum. The .chief engineer
of the Mexican railway was sent from
the capital personally to supervise the
repairing of the gap In the line near
the coast. Huerta, It was believed,
might use that route' of departure.
The railway was torn up after the
American occupation of Vera Cruz.
With a crisis Imminent administration
officials and envoys of the South
American republics were untiring in
their efforts to-day to bring about a
transition of power In Mexico City
without further sacrice of life. Car
ranza, Constitutionalist chief, in noti
fying the United States that he would
not sanction any conference with rep
resentatives of Huerta to draft peace
terms, declared that unconditional
surrender of the authorities in Mex
ico City was the only thing he would
accept. He said he could give ample
assurances for the guarantee of life
and property.
General Carranza
Will Go to Monterey
By Associated Press
Saltillo, Mexico, July 13 (via La
redo, Texas, July 14). —General Car
ranza and his oflicial family will leave
here to-morrow for Monterey, where
the temporary capital will next be
established.
Many Constitutionalist commanders
gathered for a final conference to-day
with General Carranza. The generals
forming the commission which met
recently at Torreon have rejoined their
commands and it is understood have
been given instructions to make utmost
speed in the advance on Mexico City.
All troops in this section will be trans
ported at once to San Luis Potosi and
General Pablo Gonzales and staff will
proceed to that place, where it is ex
pected General Gonzales will' take su
preme command on Monday or Tues
day.
A report prevalent here from San
Luis Potosi Is that a man named Car
denas, alleged to have fired the shot
which killed former President Madero,
is with the federal garrison at San
Luis Potosi. The. Constitutionalist 1
forces will attempt to capture him.
ASSESTS IF CRIME
CI BE DISCOVERED |
[Continued from First Page]
London and other points had received ;
no copies of the evidence to-day. It is ;
understood, however, that copies will i
be received. District Attorney Whit
man, who has been in Newport, came
here to-day.
Will Not Discuss Report
Directors and former directors of
the road generally have refused to dis
cuss the commission's report. Mr. Mel
len. however, under whose adminis
tration the alleged acts complained of
were committed, branded It as "a re
port of a political tribunal made for
political purposes."
The full board of the present New
Haven directors is to meet In New
York on Thursday. At that time some
statement bearing on the charges may
be issued.
Mr. Mellen's counsel, J. W. H. Crim,
has issued a statement defending Mel
len's actions. He said that Mellen's
private fortune when he took charge
of the New Haven was a million dol
lars. Now, he added, it was far less i
than that. He added that if the gov
ernment or the stockholders began
action against the directors of the New
Haven Railroad, as suggested by the
commission, the directors would re
taliate with what he termed an affirm
ative action, in which the other action
would be nullified, and much to the
credit of Mr. Mellen and the directors
would be established.
May Bo Indicted
District Attorney Whitman reached
his' office shortly before 11 o'clock
and Issued this statement:
"When these papers (relative to the
New Haven) reach this office they will
be closely scrutinized, and if we have
any reason to believe that any crime ■
of any kind has been committed by 1
any person connected with the New
Haven Railroad or its management in :
this county an indictment will follow
nc matter who the person may he."

Senate Plans to Frame
Legislation For Control
of Railroad Financing
Washington, July 14.—With Its
unmeasured denunciation of the
"maladministration" of New Haven
financial affairs and "criminal negli
gence" of directors, the Interstate
Commerce Commission's sensational
report on its Investigation of the New
England railroad lines was to-day be
fore the Senate Committee working to
frame legislation for control of rail
road financing, interlocking director
ates and other subjects concerned in
the investigation.
Administration supporters declared
that many of the recommendations of
the committee agreed perfectly with
portions of President Wilson's trust
lcgsllation program.
The next step In New Haven affairs,
however, was expected from the De
partment of Justice. Apart from al
leged violations of laws of States and
liability of the New Haven's direc
tors over which Attorney General
Mcßeynolds has said the federal stat
utes have no control, the Department
was concerned chiefly in the commis
sion's findings that all the acts char
acterized as "corrupt and unlawful"
were for the purpose of setting up a
monopoly In violation of the federal
statutes. The Department of Justice
has taken that view in its dissolution
suit against the New Haven system
which probably will be filed within the
next few days, unless the railroad offi
cials reverse their-attitude and accept
the terms of peaceful dissolution.
The possibility of any criminal acts
being in violation of federal law was
being considered by the department,
but that phase of the case is apart
from the dissolution proceedings.
Certified copies of testimony and ex
hibits of evidence gathered by the
commission's examiners were on their
way by registered mail to-day to dis
trict attorneys In various Jurisdictions
in New York, Connecticut and Rhode
Island In which New Haven transac
tions were carried out. The testimony
and exhibits relate to such acts as the
commission has characterized as un
lawful but which State officers If any,
must act.
The entire record was sent some
time ago to the Department of Jus
tice where It has been under study
by the attorneys in charge of the gov- j
ernment's contemplated dissolution;
suit.
i New Haven affairs were brought up l
In the Senate during a "prosperity"
debate between Senator Galllgher, Re
publican, and Senator Thomas, Demo
crat. The Republican senator read a
i clipping telling of the discharge of
nhop hands In Wilmington, Del., and
the Democratic senator retorted that
i his colleague might be more solici
i tous of those who had suffered In New
Haven operations as disclosed In the
Interstate Commerce Commission's re
port.
Senator Thomas quoted from the
late J. Pierpont Morgan's will, the
words in which the dead financier
committed "my soul to the hands of
my Maker."
"That will is a fitting companion
piece to the commission's report,"
concluded Mr. Thomas.
WOMAN AGAIN ON TRIAD
By Associated Prist
New Haven, Conn., July 14.—Bes
sie J. Wakefield was to-day placed on
trial for a second time under an in
dictment for murder in the first degree
in causing the death of her husband,
William O. Wakefield, at Cheshire on
June 23, 1913. The woman was found
guilty of the murder on October 31
and sentenced to he hanged on March
4 last. Upon an appeal the Supreme
Court of Errors granted a new trial.
