U. S, WANTS WILHEI.MIXA
IXQUIRY TO HE POSTPONED
Washington, D. C., Feb. J2.—The
American government has proposed to
Great Britain a postponement of the
plans to take the American steamer
ilhelmina before a prize court, that
her owners may have opportunity to
present evidence which they contend
will prove her cargo not properlv sub
ject to seizure.
Counsel for the owners of the Wil
nelmina and her cargo have repre
sented that they can present irrefut
able evidence to support their argu
ment. Should the British government
agree to the proposal, action before a
prize court would be unnecessarv. The
Wilhelniina is at Falmouth with food
stuffs consigned for the civil popu
lation of Germany. H?r cargo is own
ed a St. Louis commission house.
TEXT OF NOTE MAY NOT BE
AVAILABLE FOR SEVERAL BAYS
London. Feb. 12, 2.07 P. M.—On ac
count of the great length of the Brit
ish government's reply to the Amer
ican note concerning British interfer
ence with American shipping, it prob
ably will be several days before the
text is available. The British and
American governments have agreed to
make the note public simutaneously,
but the entire communication has noi
yet be coded from the cable, and can
not posaibzy he transmitted, translated
from the code and be made ready in
Washington for publication for some
time yet.
The note is more than three times
the length of the communication to
which it is a reply, going into contra
band controversies in great detail
During the last three weeks the only
case of seizure of alleged American
contraband is that of the steamship
i W ilhelmina.
CONSUMER CAN SUE
BAKERS FOR FRAUD
[Continued from First Page.]
collected shall go to the informer Mr
Sweeney said:
"I have not heard fully of the Phil
adelphia opinion, but believe it is right.
The State's inspectors are working un
dei the act of 1913 and have no pow
er in the enforcement of the 1797 act
That power is with the consumer alone
Most breads also come under the seal
ed package clause, and packages five
cents in value or under do not come
within our jurisdiction."
Boyer Points Out Difficulty
Mr. Boyer was of the same belief
as to the act of 1797, but was of the
opinion that consumers would have
considerable difficulty in proving a
dishonest weight. Mr. Boyer said:
"A loaf of bread may weigh sixteen
ounces when it comes from the bak-*
ery. In fact as I have found It some
times, it may weigh seventeen ounces.
This loaf goes to the retail dealers and
may be in a case for a dav or longe>-
losing weight by drying out. The re
tail dealer is certainly not to blame
for the short weight and how would
the consumer be able to prove that
the loaf of bread does not weigh six
teen ounces when It came from the
bakery?"
Mr. Heel, clt.v sealer, said: "The
[consumer has the power to get hon
est weight under the old law."

Location of Lights in Fourth Financier, Formerly Manager
and Fifth Wards of Local Plant
Although by far the greater number |
!of Steelton's streets are lighted by
I electricity, some still are illuminated
by gas. When the proposed plan for im
proving the street lighting system was
broached in council some of the. mem- *
bers expressed a desire to do away j
with all gas lights.
President J. V. W. Reynders, how-!
ever, took a stand against the plan on 1
the ground that some day the electric j
light companies could be prevented |
! from raising their rates by changing j
ito the gas lamps—if such a contin- '
I gency should ever arise. In order to >
j keep competition alive there will be
I thirteen gas lights used under the new
! lighting plan.
The locations of lamps in the Fourth

PRESIDENT REJECTS
COMPROMISE SHIP BILL
[Continued from First Page.]
say, that President Wilson is still de
termined to press the shipping hill,
even if it means an extra session.
Some House leaders, hoyvever, told the
President that they believe an extra
session could not pass the bill, as it
would fail to get a majority in the new-
Congress.
Burleson Has Plan
Representing the President, Post
master General Burleson made a coun
ter proposition to the leaders this aft
ernoon. It was that the House com
bine Senator Gore's substitute for tlie
administration bill with a bill by Sen
ator Weeks which already has passed
the Senate, proposing a line of naval
auxiliaries to be used for passengers
and freight in emergencies at the dis
cretion of the Secretary of the Navy.
Mr. Burleson said the President wouid
not accept any amendment to destroy
the permanent character of the
project.
Democrats who had been working
at both ends of the Capitol to get the
bill in form acceptable to both Sen
ate and House before March 4 yvere
confident it could be passed if the
amendment making it a temporary
measure were attached. The counter
proposal advanced by the Postmaster
General drew the whole proposition
again Into theregion of uncertaintv.
Representative Kitchen, the House
Democratic leader elect, declared lie
yvould not vote for the bill in the form
proposed, but that he had no doubt It
could pass the House. The Democrats
who favored the temporary amend
ment feared a resumption of the Re
publican filibuster were it not at
tached.
With tb" White House proposal as
a new basis, further negotiations went

It comes on gradually, beginning
with languor, indisposition to mental
or bodily exertion, irritability and a
feeling of fatigue Jjiter comes palpi
tation of the heart and headache. In
a majority of cases constipation is
present. Often the patient craves un
usual things to eat, such as starch or
chalk. There may be no loss of Aesli,
but the complexion takes on a green
ish-yellow pallor.
There is no need to worry in a case
of this kind. The treatment is easv
and simple. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills,
nonalcoholic and free from any harm
ful drus:, are just the tonic to remedy
this condition. Improvement begins
with the first dose. As the blood is
made rich and red the peculiar pallor
leaves the face strength and activity
gradually return and if the treatment
is continued until the last symptom
disappears the danger of relapse Is
slight.

MANNING PREPARES
PLANS FOR COAL WHARF
EContinued from First Page.]
discussed the project, but took no offi
cial action on the subject. Officially
speaking, the wnole plan cannot, bo
submitted to the commission for tinal
a< tion until after its passage by Coun
cil. but to-day's conference was held
for the purpose of obtaining the com
mission's views.
Before considering the matter as a
body the commission heard J. H.
1 homas, the electric company's engi
neer. and when he and the other rep
-1 esentati ves of the company retired
the planning board went into execu
tive session.
Members Differ on Site
In discussing the project. President
S. Herman said there was a. differ
ence of opinion among some of the
members of the Commission as to the
advisability of establishing the prece
dent of placing the wharf on the
island _ shore. Whether or not the
< ommission would announce any deci
sion in the matter now he could not
say.
The quesion of taking the first stop
n the elimination of the unsightly
i landing- wharf at. Market and Front
streets was considered carefully, ao-
| cording (o President Herman, although
[lO said the aesthetic side of the prob
lem was given consideration along
; with the utilitarian side.
The electric company's engineer
j explained in detail just what the com
| pany wished an >1 why it wanted. ,t ho
; wharf removed to the island. Seventy
! five per cent, or more of the coal
| wagon traffic that is now handled at
the Market street landing would ho
thus eliminated as the bulk of all the
hauling there Is done bv the electric
company. •
! The company. President Herman
said, would be the gainer in that it
would be able to handle all Its coal
in three months of each year or less
and thereby save in time and money
what it is compelled to expend now
practically throughout the year.
Question of Kconomy
whole question on the com
pany s part is one of economy," said
President Herman. ''There is no In
tention to put anything over'—purely
a question of how to handle its coal iii
a more satisfactory and economical
way and at the same time do the
right thing by the city.
"Furthermore," continued .Mr. Her
man, "the company's engineer pointed
out that the question of keening the
river bed clear of the accumulation of
coal is one that should be considered,
too. It isn't oniy a problem of
handling $«0,000 or $70,000 worth of
coal; it's a question of keeping the
coal accumulations removed. Other
wise the river -tvould bo dotted with
grass patches and little islands, which
the washed down coal would help ac
cumulate."
"The question of whether the wharf
should be removed to some other
side, probably further down, was con
sidered. too, but because of the pro.x
jimity of the playgrounds on the lower
end of the island it is desired if pos
sible to keep the southern end of tho \
island clear. V.
"The question of handling the coal
is a serious one with the utility com
pany and X think that, it is no more
than proper that the city should keep
this in mind. The alternative to which
the company will be put, according
to its engineer, Mr. Thomas, is a float
ing hoist. And the chances are this
will be a big unsightly thing that can
be anchored somewhere along the
Itiver Front.
"P-ersonally." concluded President
Herman, "I don't think the structurn
as it is proposed will bo as unsightly
as they think. And I believe that if
no better-place can be suggested why
then place it on the sit proposed. I
think that the aesthetic end of the
problem should be considered, hut I
think that there is the other side of
it, too."
Secretary B. F. Umberger said ho
was not decided as the problem was
a grave one. It involved, he said, tho
establishing of a preceden. "The
city's big asset is tt's water front,"
said he.
