STEEL CARS SAVE MANY PASSENGERS Only Six People Receive Injuries When the Buffalo Flyer f| Leaves Rails » . Sfecial to The Tele graph Williamsport, Pa., Oct. 19. All steel cars again proved their value as life savers when train No. 52, Buffalo- Philadelphia ftyer, eastbound, on the Pennsylvania Railroad, was wrecked at Glen Union, 38 miles west of here, yesterday afternoon, while running 45 miles an hour. The accident was caused by a broken axle under the tender. The. entire train, three day coaches, three parlor cars, a diner and a bag gage car, left the rails, the engine and babbage car rolling down a six-foot embankment. More than 100 passen gers were aboard. All were badly shaken up, but only six sustained in juries, and these of a minor nature, consisting mainly of sprains and bruises. The injured are: Mrs. G. E. Van Riper. Sunbury, suf fering from nervous shock. Dr. W. P. McCorkle, Pittsburgh, % right eye injured. Mrs. Edward Hawkey, Port Alle ba&y, nervous shock. Dr. W. J. Pyles, Swissvale, wrist bruised, leg sprained, bump on head. Robert Wagner, Swissvale, right elbow bruised. All were able to continue their journey. None of the crew was hurt. Some of the cars were badly battered, and it is admitted that had it not been for the steel construction there might, have been heavy loss of life. When the accident occurred the train was just passing a freight that was standing on a siding. The dining car toppled over against a freight car, this alone keep ing it from going over the embank ment with the engine and baggage tar. Although the baggagemasti r was in his car when it went over, he es caped unhurt. A relief train was made up here and sent to the scene of the accident, ar riving here with the passengers at 9.30 oclock last night. Wreck crew were sent from Williamsport, Renovo and Lock Haven. The train was in charge of a Buffalo and Susquehanna division crew and was due in Harrisburg last evening at 5.20 o'clock. Trains were made up here and passengers sent East and South. Delayed passengers reached Harrisburg at midnight.

CITIES ASKED TO AID UNEMPLOYED Dr. Jackson Suggests That They Inaugurate Public Works to Give Work to Idle GIVES PRACTICAL THOUGHTS Public Service Commission Will Meet Tomorrow With a Big Calendar Ahead of It nidpalitles under ) take public works providing work [PjnftQHnl unempl oy e d are J.l nCMHIM' made by Dr. John Price Jackson, State C o m m i s - cently the bureau of statistics of the department undertook an Inquiry into the state of employment in the State supplemental to its study of the immi gration problem, which had been in progress for several months. The re sults showed a large number of meiy out of work and the information re ceived indicates that conditions will not improve very materially. The recent tour of Europe by Dr. Jackson afforded him good opportuni ties for observing the industrial con ditions and he found that in Germany and England prior to the war public works were being used as an outlet for unemployed labor. The department then ascertained that a number of places contemplated municipal im provements. such as paving, sewers and grading, and also took steps to find out where building operations were under way on a large scale. This was followed up with the suggestion that other cities contemplating im provements should advance the start as goon as possible, it being pointed out that it is probably as economical to promote the project now when labor is cheap as to defer it. It is recognized that the unemployed are a direct economic loss and State officials believe that prompt action on im provements would do much toward alleviating suffering . In addition to suggesting that the improvements be undertaken soon to relieve conditions the commissioner is also urging in a circular that munici palities establish employment agencies to bring employers and unemployed together.

K fsfsfsfi SPICY MINT LEAF JUICED WILL FIGHT EFFORT AGAINST RJLL CREWS Railroad Men Not Pleased With Bulletin Posted by Pennsyl vania Railroad Today Railroad men \C-ill fight any effort to have the Full Crew repealed, brotherhood members in this city said to-day, aft'- reading a bulletin post ed by the Pennsylvania Railroad Com pany along the main line, announcing that efforts will be made to have the Full Crew Bill repealed in the several States in %vhich it is in force. It will be two weeks before the lo cal lodges of trainmen and conductors can take any action. Local lodges will pass resolutions recommending action and will forward the resolutions to the legislative committees of their re spective orders. Railroad men were unanimous in their opinions to-day, protesting against any effort to repeal the law. The bulletins say in part: "It is in the interest of the public— whose chief concern is good service and safety—that the extra crew law now on the statute books of Pennsyl vania be repealed. "This law causes a waste of $1,100,- 000 annually in the employment of un necessary men on the Pennsylvania system alone. "No one is more concerned than the Pennsylvania Railroad in securing maximum safety on its lines. Every train on this railroad has a full crew, and thte extra expenditure adds noth ing to safety or public convenience. The aapie money had much better be spent to remove grade crossings, im prove tracks, signals and bridges and buy steel cars. "We appeal to the people in their Interest, we appeal to our employes in their best interest, to ask their repre sentatives in the next Pennsylvania Legislature to repeal the extra crew law." .

LETTERSTOTHEEDITOR PLEA TO REPUBLICANS X° the li Jit or of the Telegraph: Through your columns can you not persuade your subscribers and all good Republican voters to not allow a paper so low and misleading as the North American of Philadelphia to enter their homes? Think of a paper which is mean enough and unreliable enough to pro fess to be so much against certain things, such as they accuse the Repub lican party as being interested in the booze business, when not more than a month ago they offered In an open letter to support said party. They are of too changeable a way to ever consider theft support worthy of the Republican party. Surely the Republican party is better off to-day by refusing to recognize them and their open letters. They have always been uncertain and exaggerating. What little Repub licanism they ever had they threw aside in supporting the Washington party at the last presidential election. NtAv they have in this campaign started Washington, turned and of fered to support Republicans and finally wound up by going to the ex treme of supporting Mr. McCormlck and his clan. Nothing Is too bad and corrupt, ac cording to their present writings, to believe of Messrs. Brumbaugh and Penrose. I wonder what the North American would have been printing to-day of their good qualities if Messrs. Brumbaugh and Penrose had accepted their support. Surely they have shown in this alone to be against associating with even newspapermen in a corrupt and mis leading way. The Republican voters should not support such a paper and should con gratulate themselves on having such a poor, weak opposition. A REPUBLICAN. OPINION FROM PERRY To the Editor of the Telegraph: I as a Washington party county committeeman express my implicit confidence in the integrity and un selfish action of William D. Lewis in withdrawing as the Washington party candidate for Governor, so that all the forces opposed to Penrose and Penroseism might be united. We re gret that before taking the step that irrevocably eliminated him as the Washington party nominee for Gov ernor he had not secured the opinion of the great unbossed rank and tile of the party who have opinions of their own, irrespective of the wishes of tho leaders. If the rank and file of the Wash ington party considered that the Democratic party were more anxious to defeat Penrose than to secure the offices of Governor and United States senator, they would enter heartily into the scheme, but large numbers of our party think that the Democrats are not sincere and A. .Mitchell Palmer, Democratic candidate for United States senator, confirms that belief by fre quently in public utterances asserting nothing but death will cause him to show the same disinterested spirit of William D. Lewis and withdraw. The [attitude of Mr. Palmer not only Jeoy ardizes the election of Gifford Pinchot. but Mr. McCormlck as well. After Interviewing a great many Progressive voters they denounce the idea of fusion with the Democrats un less they make some concessions. The idea of playing second fiddle to a minority party in this state is prepos terous. Unless Mr. Palmer withdraws from the senatorial race in favor ot Mr* Pinchot there will be a landslide for Dr. Brumbaugh and not the Demo cratic party, as the Democrats are very optimistic over what they claim a sure victory for them by the gen erous act of the Progressives. I in terviewed a prominent Democrat the other day and he seemed highly elated at the outlook. I told him the old story that when a fellow goes through a graveyard at night he generally whistles to keep up his spirits even if he is scared almost to death, and that seemed to apply to them pretty well. Yours trulv, G. M. ESHELMAN, Progressive County Committeemen. Blood Remedy Sustains World Myriads Have Learned of Its Re markable Curative Value. From tlic very fact that 8.
