Whole Bill's a Corker They make your eyes bulge: they make you hold your breath: they make you wonder how it's done—those Chi- ! nese magicians, jugglers, balancers, ! acrobats at the Orpheum this week. Pekin Mysteries are mysteries in- , deed. Those Chinamen are about as : " lever a set as have ever thrilled and 1 mystified a first niglit audience. Their : magic is of a different sort; and so is: their acrobatic and juggling. One of the most pleasing things of the whole act is the way those Orientals smile. They seemed so pleased with the crowd that the crowd couldn't have been dis pleased with the performers had it tried. Possibly the act that ranks second to the Pekin Mysteries this week is a singing and dancing offering by Jim mie Casson and Betty Bond. Hut. Jimmie. why don't you kiss the pretty little lady at the end of that crooney love song? Jimmie and Betty both have voices of exquisite quality, both are good to lbok upon, and both could have flirted all evening without anybody's becom ing anything but jealous. A Bright Little Skit One of the brightest little skits that has been nt the Locust street vaude ville house in weeks is "The Squarer." featuring J. C. Nugent, who wrote the sketch himself, and Julie York. Spar kling repartee makes the piece most entertaining. Henry the Holland Dutch comedian, with his prologues, epi logues and fool acting, is just as amus ing as ever. Cameron and Gaylord, in ten minutes of tomfoolery, made you laugh in spite of yourself. Xana, who is billed as a dancer, is really a bare back rider out of her realm. Twisto, a lean, lank, limber soul, does many new things in the contortion line. There's not a dull act. MAX ROBERTSOX.

Station TUESDAY EVENING, j HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH DECEMBER 8, 1014. Emory R. Johnson Says Antago nism Between People and Companies Is Passing The importance of public utility companies giving the public a. fair (leal and safeguarding the good will ot | their pat'ons was emphasized by C. 1.. 8. Tngley, of St. David's, presi dent of the Pennsylvania Street Rail- I way association, in his address open ling the annual convention of the as sociation here to-day. Practically ! every trolley line in the State was Represented at the meeting. Emory R. Johnson, public service icommissioner, was the chief speaker, ;and in the course of his address said: ."The former antagonistic relationship j between the electric railwav com jpanies and the public is fortunately j changing tfofr one of mutual under standing. The obligations of the ser- , . vice companies to the public and the! j duty of the public toward the com-' J panics are coming to be clearly rec ognized and to be defined more and j more clearly by municipal ordinances and State legislation." Dr. Johnson urged that public officials and com pany officials should do their utmost Ito bring about a permanent basis of mutual confidence. He said that pub lic service companies can secure the | confidence of the public "provided the {companies adhere to methods of i flnancierinf and management that square with approved moral stand ards: provided the companies keep the ; public fully and accurately informed ; regarding the affairs of the corpora tions that serve the public, and pro ivided that the service rendered is ade quate and efficient." Dr. Johnson said that good service iis fundamental and all important as , sential to the success of the, company ! and necessary to secure public ap ; provai. The welfare of the inunici jpality and the electric railway coin- I pany afe linked together and the ; State's larger interests demand that jthe State shall supplement municipal .regulation of public utilities. He said )in closing that most public service I companies do welcome intelligent pub- I lie regulation. • HEPTASOPHB ELECT Dauphin Conclave, No. 96, Improv ed Order of Heptasophs. elected offi cers at its rooms, 321 .Market str.eet, last night, for the next year.

BUILD SUBMARINES Steel Man Signifies Intention of Following President Wil son's Advice Sferial to The Telegraph Washington. D. <\, Dec. B.—Charles jM. Schwab has definitely ileoideil that ! his lirni shall not huild submarines j for uny belliKcrent country for de livery during the war in Europe. Definite announcement to this effect, 'coupled with the statement that Mr. .Schwab had "submitted to the Presi dent's views of the subject," was is sued at the State |Department late yes terday afternoon by Secretary Bryan. Previous reports had been that the submarines were to be delivered to a European belligerent in parts only. it was the first official confirmation of reports that Mr. Schwab had ar • ranged for the construction, presum ably by the Fore River Shipbuilding • 'ompany, of twenty submarines for one of the European belligerents. | Equally interesting, if not more im portant. from an international point of view, is the statement made by Secretary Bryan at the same time that President Wilson had instructed the Secretary of State to inform Mr. Schwab that his statements to officials of the government "only confirmed the President in the opinion previously formed that the submarines should not be built." Carranza Is Reported to Be Under Arrest For Taking Sum of Money El Paso. Texas. Dec.

The sum is re ported to be more than $50,000,000 and is said to have been sent to the border by the first chief. General Ornelas, 'the Villa com mander at Juarez, announced to-day that a strong force of Villa soldiers soon would be sent against the troops of General Jose Ynez Salazar, former federal leader, who has started a new revolution in Central Chihuahua. To Erect Electric Cross in Market Street Before the end of the week a big electrically lighted red cross will be erected over Market street just east of the Square in observance of the 1914 Christmas seal sale. The cross, which will be picked out with scores of red-bulbed lights, will be raised by the .Harrisburg l.ight and Power Com pany. The same plan was followed out last season and when the 1914 seal campaign was inaugurated John Fox Weiss, chairman of the general com mittee, asked the utility company if the same emblem could again be erected. Three days will be set apart es pecially for the sale of the seals in the public schools, December 16, 17 and IS having befjn decided upon for the purpose. Oh liecember 15 the Boy- Scouts will serve as messengers to carry the seals around to the different buildings. Dr. C. R. Phillips, chair man of the subcommittee on school distribution, said that at least 60.000 will be put out in the schools this year. In 1913 the children sold 57,000, net ting ?570 for the Red Cross Christmas seal fund. Two Carloads of Horses For Use in British Army Shipped From Carlisle Carlisle, Pa., Dec. S.

COUNCIL TO CONSIDER BUDGET THURSDAY Skeleton Measure Will Likely Be Presented at Next Week's Session City Council will begin the prepara tion of the 191.1 budget ordinance at a special meeting Thursday afternoon. j The departmental estimates will be .submitted and pruned as much as pos sible and the figures will then be in corporated in a skeleton measure to be submitted on first reading at next Tuesday's regular meeting. Some idea of the expenditures of the departments were given in Council this afternoon, although the figures are all subject to change. Commis sioner M. Harvey Taylor, superintend ent of parks and public property, said his estimate for Ihe fire department will be $40,196. Included in this will be the $7,500 for a new firehouse for the Royal Company. For parks $34.- 108.75 will be asked, including SI,OOO for the salary of the city forester and SIOO for equipment. Only $632 for maintenance is asked for the new lights. Commissioner Taylor also in cludes in his budget the necessary ap pjropriation for the stand lights along the river wall. Commissioner W. 11. Lynch, streets and public improvements, could not say what his budget would probably total, although it is believjed that he may ask for $117,000. practically what would have been required for the present year had twelve instead of nine months' expenditures been provided for. Commissioner W. 1.. Gorgas. super intendent of finance and accounts, has not yet prepared his budget, but this will run ahead of this year in view of the fact, that interest and sinking funds for twelve instead of nine months must be provided. The Water Department appropriation for 1915, according to Commissioner H. E. Bow man's tentative figures, will total $122,236.83. For 1914 it was $138.- 700.98. The estimates for the health' and sanitation bureau will be about $11,930. Mayor Want* More Cops Mayor Royal's budget will total $69,215. The Mayor among other thinks asks for S3OO additional salary for Col. Joseph B. Hutchison, chief of police, making his salary SI,BOO. The Mayor says he doesn't consider the establishment of a detective bu reau and captaincy necessary at this time and doesn't recommend this. He does ask for an increase in salary for the detective who conducts the Bertil lon bureau. Detective Joseph Ibach is now in charge of the work and his salary is S9O a month; the Mayor's recommendation Is that this salary be raised to SIOO. He asks for one addi tional policeman, the traffic officer al ready provided by Council, and five more patrolmen if the city can afford it. The Mayor also asks for SSOO for the installation of a city scales in the market houses and SI,OOO for an auto mobile runabout for the sealer. About $l4O is also asked for the framing of the pictures of seventeen Mayors who served the city since 1860. City Clerk Miller's department asks $4,634.50; the sealer of weights and measures, $3,600, and the printing de partment, $5,600. The law depart ment wants $8,586.64, including dam ages for the recent South Front street park condemnation cases. Council authorized the city solicitor to file bonds to cover prospective damages incident to the taking over of unacquired park land from Kelker street northward, so the treatment of the river embankment may be pro ceeded with. The food inspection ordinance was amended to revise the fixed rates for different license fees. Sullivan Asks For Full Investigation By Associated Press Washington. D. C., Dec. 8.

WIRE TROUBLE FROM STORM STILL FELT Heavy Rains Broke Long Drought and Puts End to Factory Shutdowns Storms in the east which paralyzed telephone and telegraph business and eliminated several Jersey coast towns from communication with the outside world are passing off the North At lantic Coast. Outside of wire trouble, llarrisburg got off with about two inches of pre cipitation. which Included snow and sleet. Trains to and from Harrisburg to-day were all on schedule time. Up to late this afternoon wire trouble was still reported. There was but one wire for telephone service and the Western Union Telegraph Company transacted business with one wire and by relays to various cities. Gus Catherman, manager of the Western Union, was of the opinion that the trouble would all be over by this evening. Weather forecasts for Harrisburg and vicinity to-day were favorable for milder weather. Snow flurries are a probability during the night, but no further rain is in sight. Philadelphia, Dec. B.—Although the northeast gale which raged along the Atlantic seaboard for three days caused thousands of dollars' worth of damage .the deluge of rain which ac companied it has decisively broken the long drought, which in some sections of Eastern Pennsylvania, Southern N«W Jersey and Delaware had become serious. In several counties of this state streams and wells had dried up and in many Instances it was necessary for the farmers to haul water for their stock from a distance, while in some cases Water was brought In by the railroads In tank cars. Scores of mills and factories had either shut down or were running on part time owing to the shortage of water and in the coal regions op erations at many collieries had been suspended for the same reason. $75,000 Graft Fund For Two U. S. Senators Is Charge Made in Mexico New York. Dec. B.—A dispatch to the New York World from Mexico City sent from the capital on December 2 by messenger to Galveston. Texas, whence it was wired to this city, states that correspondence and records found in the Mexican national treasury after Carranza and his troops lied the capi tal indicate that Carranza paid $75,000 in gold to two United States senators, unnamed, for their influence in bring ing about the evacuation of Vera Cruz. The books of the treasury contain entries showing that this sum was paid out for such purpose about a week be fore November 23. when General Funston led his forces out of Vera Cruz by order of the War Department at Washington. Search revealed that the money had been transmitted by Carranza's order to Rafael Zubaran. chief of the Car ranzista junta In Washington. Further investigat. on developed that appar ently Zubaran had informed Carranza that it was necessary to employ finan cial stimulus that sufficient pressure should be put on President Wilson to present him from receding from his expressed determination to withdraw the troops November 23. It is doubted in Mexico City that the money was ever paid to senators, as alleged, although treasury employes who were connected with the Car i rana administration insist that the money was cabled to Zubaran.

War Results in Boom For Shipping Industry All Over Great Britain By .Issoi-iatcd Press London, Nov. 26 (Correspondence of the Associated Press). —The war has resulted in a boom for the shipping industry of Great Britain, and no where has this been felt more than in London. The port of London has never been busier, and a notice just posted by the Association of Master Lightermen appeals to ship owners and manufacturers to do all in their [power to secure the prompt discharge of cargoes as a measure of relief for the unusual congestion of traffic. As for foodstuffs, the present re serve stock is live times larger than it was at this time last year. Of grain there are 130,000 tons now afloat for London. A consignment of 250,- 000 bags of flour, sent as a gift from Canada several weeks ago, is still in the dock warehouses, presumably lie lug held as part of the reserve supply for the troops. The supply of meats and tea is not as large as had been planned. The supply of tea apparently was affected by the activity of the German cruiser Emden in the Far East. With this menace removed heavy arrivals are expected shortly. One full shipload of 4,000 tons, which arrived Novem ber 20, was the largest cargo of tea ever sent here from China. The shortage of "lumber, which was noted during the early part of the war, has been remedied by the ar rival of vast quantities from the Baltic and Archangel. GERMANS MOKK ACTIVE Paris.
