Pennsylvania's legislature will re

|ls considered to be the most com
plcte scheme for establishing a work
. men s compensation act upon a basis
eminently fair and yet suited to the
(peculiar industrial conditions In Penn

| legislation were made public last night
by Governor Martin G. Brumbaugh,
who is committed to the enactment of
such a law and who haß taken a
great Interest in the preparation. The
Governor has publicly invited com
ments and asks that remarks upon

The acts were drafted by Attorney

consultation with employers, em
ployes, labor leaders, manufacturers
attorneys and many other interested
persons as well as members of the In
dustrial Accidents Commission which
has made a study of the proposition
for the last four years.
There are six proposed acts and
the constitutional amendment passed
last session and submitted this time
so that if it passes it may be submit
ted to the voters of the State in No
vember. This amendment would give
the legislature the right to enact com
pulsory compensation and to limit the
amounts to be paid. The act as drawn
provides an elective system or a vol

of compensation, changing materially
the common law defenses.
The first act provides for work
men s compensation; the second
creates the State bureau to enforce
the proposed act; the third establishes
a State insurance fund: the fourth
regulates the policies of insurance
against liability under the proposed
a £*'° "'th authorises the creation
of mutual liability associations, and
the sixth exempts farm labor and do

act. They are accompanied by the
proposed amendment and the whole

It is expressly stated that the act
calls for elective compensation, con

1915. being presumed to accept it un
less a statement is filed to the con

iiO per cent, for 215 weeks; foot, 50
per cent, for 150 weeks; leg, 50 per
cent, for 215 weeks: eye, 50 per cent,
for 125 weeks: for loss of two or
more members, not constituting total
disability, 50 per cent, during the ag
gregate period specified for each. No
compensation shall be allowed for the
first fourteen days, but employer must
furnish surgical or medical ear# un
less refused by the employe, the cost
to be limited to $25 unless major op
eration when it shall be $75.
In event of death the schedule shall
be: Child or children if there be no
widow, 25 per cent, of wages with ten
per cent, additional for each child In

scale for other dependents. Burial
expenses are limited to SIOO. Children

aliens, commutation, notices and ex
aminations and other details of ad

The procedure is provided in a sec
tlon which provides for rpfproeß th 6

papers with the bureau created in the
second act, the hoard to name referees.
The hoard of administration is to
he composed of three to be named

fect "any person who at the time of
injury is engaged in domestic service
or agriculture."

W. U. HENSEL DIES
IN SAVANNAH, GA.
[Continued from First Paste.]
1851. He graduated from Franklin
and Marshall College In 1870 and
after studying: law was admitted to
'the Lancaster county bar in 1873. He
then engaged in journalism in Lancas
ter, being the editor of a Democratic
paper. In 1886 he was appointed At
torney General of the State and held
that office until 1891 when he en
gaged In the law practice with J. Hay
Brown, now chief justice of the Su
preme Court of Pennsylvania. Mr.
Hensel was an ex-president of the
State Bar Association and a vice
president of the American Bar Asso
ciation. He was president of the
board of trustees of Franklin and
Marshall College and attorney for
many corporations. A daughter,
Elizabeth, wife of John A. Nauman, a
member of the Lancaster bar, survives
I as do several brothers and sisters.
TRIBUTE OF A FRIEND
William Uhler Hensel Is dead:
There is no need to say "of Lancas
ter," and, in fact, there is little use in
giving forth anything but the state
ment, "Mr. Hensel is dead." Through
out the length and breadth of the land
he will be missed as one of the most
loyal of friends, one of the most pub
lic-spirited of citizens, one of the most
Intelligent of men-in-the-law, and one
of the most versatile of men of let
ters. At a recent dinner ex-Governor
McCorkie, of West Virginia, stated
that it was not the reunion which
limited the North and the South. It
was the address made by Mr. Hensel
at Washington-Lee University in the
year previous. Champion of Bu
chanan, laudator of the country law
yer as evidenced In Thaddeus Stevens
and protagonist for Grover Cleveland,
he inspired with his enthusiasm and
charmed with his logic and forceful
English. Newspaper correspondent,
historian and legal adviser, he united
ail his abilities in the uplift of the
State, the improvement of his town,
the betterment of his college and the
promotion of healthy social Inter
course among his friends.
Mr. Hensel was awarded many hon
ors, richly deserved, but he will be re
membered for his high sense of honor,
his indefatigable industry, his marvel
ous versatility in his life among his
people and for the fact that in addi
tion to these characteristics he was
every inch a man.

forts and the removal of mines is un

a further advance toward Constan
tinople. An Athens dispatch repeats
the statement that the sultan has
made plans for a hnsty departure from
Constantinople.
The great battle in Poland is still
to lie decided, although latest reports
indicate that the German rush from
Kast Prussia has been checked. The
Russian statement that the Germans
have been defeated in the region of
Przasnysz and the German announce
ment of the capture of the city leave
in doubt the situation on that part of
the front where the battle at present
is being waged most fiercely.
Teutonic Attempt Checked
The efforts of the German and Aus
trian armies to crumple both ends of
the long Russian front are reported to
day «o have been checked. Petrograd
states that the German drive at War
saw from the north has been counter
ed. The official report from Berlin
says that new Russian forces have ap
peared in Northern Poland and began
attacirs. Near IColno, the statement
announces, 1,100 Russians were cap
tured.

signed it. The affidavit says that
when Mr. Blackmore invited me to
dine with him he told me his wife was
to be there. That's the only reason I
met hlni at the New York restaurant."
Tt had been Principal Miller's in
tention to USL Miss Cramp as a witness
against Mr. Blackmore when his case
is heard by the full board of trustees
Monday.
It is understood that all the tnis
tees, with the exception of Charles
Bishop, are of the opinion that Miss
Cramp should be fully exonerated.
Trustee Bishop contends, however,
that if Mr. Blackmore was guilty of
indiscretion in dining with Miss
Cramp, she was equally guilty.
