Stine, of near Millersburg, is, literally spo'.iklng, one tof Dauphin county's mightiest huntsmen; figura tively, he follows the chase In a com paratively small way. These truths were developed in the County Treasurer's office this morning when the mail brought in Mr. Stine's application for a hunter's license.

CLOSELYINSPECTEO Harrisburg Merchants Will Con duct Business Along Sim ilar Lines Directors of the Merchants Ice Com pany, of Harrisburg, returned from Reading last night, where they made a thorough inspection of the Reading Merchants company plant and in quired into its business methods and results. Harrisburg directors while in Read ing were guests of the York Manu facturing Company, of York, which operates the plant in that city. Har risburg visitors were met by the stock holders of the Merchants Ice Company of Reading, including John A. Hin nershitz, president, Daniel Heffner, William Irwing, F. A. Horner and Oliver Lentz. The engine room at the Reading plant was first inspected. Here the visitqrs were shown three York ver tical single-acting ammonia com pressors. The freezing tank room was next visited, where 1,400 300-pound cans are used in making ice required for this plant. It takes forty-eight hours for one 300-pound cake to freeze. The can is submerged in brine having a temperature of about 14 de grees. The Harrisburgers were then shown the large distilling room, where a filtration plant is operated, assuring pure water and ice. The tour was completed with an inspection of the boiler room, where two 150-horse power boilers are operated. It was explained to the Harrisburg visitors that provision has been made In the Reading plant for the storage of 10,000 tons of ice which is mado during the winter. . At Reading ice is sold at the fac tory platform for per ton to stock holders only. A great many small ice dealers are stockholders and are get ting their ice for $2 per ton and can afford to deliver it to the housewife at a reasonable figure. Pieces cut to be sold in Reading for 5 cents are said to compare in size to pieces ordinarily retailed in Harrisburg for 15 cents. It was announced on the return of the Harrisburgers that the Mer chants company of Harrisburg will do business along lines similar to that of the Reeding company. WHAT'S IN A NAME?

Democratic Campaign Fund of $210,000 For Watchers' Pay Alone Democratic and Washington party workers in this city and county are wondering who are to be the lucky six to be named as watchers in each of the election districts in behalf of the "campaign of righteousness" be ing waged by Vance C. McCormlck. According to the rumors there are to be three Democratic watchers and three Bull Moose watchers for Mc- Cormlck each of the 7,000 election districts in the State. These men will not work for glory and as the tariffs "in the statements tiled for the Demo cratic campaign were about $5 per man it is evident that there is going to be some campaign funjj. If this is correct it will mean that about $210,000, assuming that there will be six watchers to a precinct, is to be provided for "watching" alone.

SEYMOUR MAY BE MINTED TO SUCCEED MURPHY First Ward Man Policeman Proba bility When Dismissed Officer Resigns While it had been generally con ceded in municipal circles ever since Tuesday that Andrew E. Murphy, dis missed as a city patrolman for insub ordination, conduct unbecoming an officer, etc., would submit his resigna tion to Mayor John K. Royal, gossip's tongue in the city offices was busv to day with the name of George W. Sey mour, 1070 South Cameron street, as Murphy's successor. The probability of Seymour's ap pointment would not be confirmed or even discussed by the City Commis sioners, but it is said on good author ity that the First Warder is to get the place at Tuesday's session of City [Council. It is generally conceded that Jacob Kinley, nominated by Mayor Royal to fill Murphy's position, will not be confirmed by Council. Action on the dismissal of Murphy and the appointment of his succes sor was postponed for a week at last Tuesday's meeting. It is expected that jthe place will be filled at the next meeting in order not to deprive Har rlsburg's taxpayers of the services of a policeman. Seymour is well-known in the lower end, where he has lived for years. He had been employed at the Central Iron and Steel Company's plant. King Nicholas Gives Views of Great War By Associated Press Rome, Oct. 15, 4 A. M.—The Gazetta del Popo, a Turin newspaper, having asked King Nicholas of Montenegro to give his views regarding the war, received an answer from General Mar tinovitch, who, in the name of the king, replied as follows: "This terrible war is the revenge— attempted throughout a century, which sometime, we hope, will be strictly defined—of oppressed nation alities against the nefarious work of this great struggle. The nationalities supported by the triple entente did not provoke the sanguinary struggle which was imposed upon them by the reactionary spirit of the German world, wishing definitely to consolidate its own reign on the sufferings of the weak in contempt of international law. "The Italian government," he con tinued. "will be able to choose the moment favorable to take such new decisions as are claimed by Italian in terests." He ended by saying he hoped that Italy, besides rejoining her children still outside her kingdom, would help the Slav nationalities in the Balkans to take the place due them on the steps of the altar where justice is law.

TRAFFIC THROUGH PANAMA CANAL IS HALnDBYSLIDE Several Ships in Waterway Have Been Unable to Complete Their Pasiage EXAMINATION BEING MADE Reports Indicate That Earth Move ments Occurred on Both Sides of Channel Panama, Oct. 15. A serious land slide In the Culebra cut at a late hour last night Interrupted completely all traffic through the Panama Canal. Sev eral ships in the canal have been un- i able to complete their passage. The reports indicate that there were I earth movements on both sides into the I channel from the slopes of Gold and ! Contractors Hills, which are virtually i opposite each other. Colonel Goethals and other officials | are making extensive examinations this morning. It is said traffic through the canal probably will be interrupted for some time. Washington. D. C., Oct. 15. News of the landslide into Culebra Cut caused no alarm at the Isthmian Canal Com mission offices. While regretting the temporary closure of the canal, the of ficials say this slide will have its com pensations from an engineering point of view, because it will hasten the final subsidence of the mobile material In the cut, thereby insuring the perma nence of the waterway. No official report on the slide had reached the commission to-day. It was recalled, however, that in almost every reference to the Culebra Cut operations Colonel Goethals had pointed out that the earth had not reached a state of equilibrium artd that probably it would be necessary to continue dredging op erations there for many months after the waterway was opened.
