    NEW WARNING SIGNS
1 P. R. R. LINES
Circulars For Education of Em
ployes; Urge Long Island
V Plan For All Divisions
Circulars have been sent out along
the Pennsylvania railroad system di
recting the attention of all
to the need of care at highway cross
ings.
The circular includes Illustrations
and tell how the Long Island branch
of the system Is trying, to diminish
motor car accidents by signs and
■warnings, also by throwing across
such highway crossings huge poles
that are painted in black and white
stripes In barber-pole fashion.
It is stated that motor car drivers
are often so negligent in observing
caution that accidents involving death
or maiming are the result.
The Pennsylvania has undertaken
to do all that it can do to avert such
accidents by placing large signs, illu
minated at night, at all crossings on
the Long Island branch, asking that
auto car drivers help It to reduce the
number of such accidents, in which
241 persons were killed during the
first six months of this years as against
TO in a corresponding time last year in
the State'of New York, as compared
with 183 in the first six months of
1914. It is stated that a similar effort
to reduce accidents at highways cross
ings will be undertaken shortly over
all the liens of the system.

MISSING 50 YEARS
[Continued From First Page.]
claimed to be a relative and he made
every effort to get Mrs. Rhoads to
sign a. paper which he had with him.
As Mrs. Rhoads did not understand
the paper she did not affix her signa
ture nor show the family Bible in
which is written the history of the
family. The Bible also contains the
signature of the grandfather when he
was a young man.
Bunc-p Scheme
This man, who claimed to be a rel
ative said his name was William
Michael, but could not answer satis
factorily questions about the family
which Mrs. Rhoads asked him. How
ever, he told them all about the oil
wells which he said belonged to the
grandfather, and see—"d to take it for
granted that Mrs. • oads knew all
about the situation for he spoke con
tinually of the certain Franklin coun
ty land.
Mrs. Rhoads did not ask in what
State the wells were, but the mar
stated that they were near Rocke
feller's wells. Aside front this they
have no clue as to where the wells
might be. Mr. Michael seemed to bo
greatly disappointed at not being able
to secure Mrs. Rhoads' signature and
said he would return later, but never
did so and as It has been over two
years now the family has decided to
make a final attempt to find the long
lost relative.

RUMORED IHSER
IS GIVEN CREDENCE
Believe Union of Penna. Steel and
Cambria Plant Will Be Ef
fected by Mr. Frick
Reports from Philadelphia to the
effect that recent stories of the merger
of the Pennsylvania Steel Company
with the Cambria Steel Company are
about to materialize, were widely dis
cussed in Steelton to-day.
Stories concerning the purposed
merger have been making their ap
pearance from time to time and ap
parently come from well-informed
sources. They have been denied, how
ewer, by Pennsylvania Steel company
officials.
This time the report comes from
Philadelphia 'Where the two steel com
panies hare offices in the same build
ing. In a statement issued Saturday
by Chandler Bros. & Co., a brokerage
firm, it is declared that Henry C.
Frick, principal stockholder of the
Cambria company, has acquired an
option of the Pennsylvania railroad's
controlling holdings in the Pennsyl
vania company. Speaking of the fu
ture of both companies the banking
firm said:
Holds Controlling Interest
"The principal owners of the Cam
bria Steel Company have plans to
make that company one of the larg
est flteel producers In the United
States. H. C. Frick Is a larger owner
of the stock, and he has obtained an
option on the holdings o fthe Pennsyl
vania Railroad, by which the controll
ing Interest In the company la held.
It is the purpose of Mr. Frick and his
associates to combine the Cambria
with the Pennsylvania Steel Company
of which, also, a controlling interest
is at present held by the Pennsylvania
Railroad. The combination would give
the Cambria an interest, in shipbuild
ing, as with the Pennsylvania Steel
Company would be acquired control of
the Maryland Steel Company, which
has a shipbuilding plant at its works
at Sparrows Point; and It is under
stood that it is the intention, when
the merger Is formed, to develop, the
shipbuilding end of the business on
a much larger scale than it is conduct
ed now.
"There is every prospect of a very
active demand for the building of new
ships, for a long time to come, and
there is the .opportunity to make the
plant at Sparrows Point very impor
tant. The Maryland Steel Company,
which owns that plant, is controlled by
the Pennsylvania Steel Company, and
plans for the merger of Cambria Steel
and Pennsylvania Steel are already
well under way. On account of these
pending developments, as well as on
account of the increasing activity in
the steel trade, the stock of the Cam
bria Steel Company is deserving of
careful attention from both the spec
ulator and the inventor."
Given Credence Here
, Great credence is given the report
In Steelton where it is known that
the relations between the two compan
ies have been growing more intimate
in recent months. W. H. Conner,
president of the Cambria company, is
chairman of the board of directors,
the directing office, in Pennsylvania
Steel.
In addition to this there have been
a number of Cambria men placed in
positions at the Steelton plant. A
large amount of products from the
local plant is shipped to Johnstown
and considerable material from the
Cambria company comes here.
The merger of the two companies,
it is declared by steel men, would give
the new company a powerful influence
in the shipbuilding trade through its
Sparrows Point plant, a subsidiary of
the Pennsylvania company.

NEWNOTETO BE OF
DEFINITE CHARACTER
[Continued From First Page.]
Intention of the United States to assert
Its rights on the high seas in accord
ance with international law. There
probably will be little or no discussion
on the principles already treated at
length in previous notes.
Prompt Action Forecasted
Prompt action irr dispatching the
note was generally forecasted. In offi
cial quarters It was agreed the com
munication would be on Its way to
Berlin by Saturday.
Although it Is not certain whether
reference will be made to the attack
on the Cunard liner Orduna, it Is
known that that incident has swept
aside previous suggestions that the
next communication would take Into
consideration that German submarine
commanders in actual practice wen
conforming to the rules of inter
national law. Irrespective of the de
tails of the Orduna attack, the fact
that, a vessel carrying Americans bound
to the United States and transporting
no contraband was attacked without
warning impressed high officials that
German submarine warfare still held
forth manv hazards for Americans
traveling the high seas "on lawful
errands."
The President Is said to have be
come convinced that the next com
munication to Germany must point out
In much more emphatic terms than
have heretofore been used the earnest
intention of the American government
not to surrender any of Its rights.

seem to be holding.
Disfigured Fop life
William Green, Frank's assailant,
still refused to.talk to-day. He is kept
in irons. Some of the guards to-day
recalled that he had expressed a feel
ing of animosity towards Frank be
fore the latter was brought to the
prison.
Dr. F. J. McNaughton, a convict,
was near Frank when he was attacked.
Dr. McNaughton, like Frank, was
saved from the gallows by a commuta
tion of sentence from Governor Slaton,
who saved Frank's life in the samo
manner. ,
Dr. Rosenberg to-day gave Dr. Mc-
Naughton full credit for saving Frank's
life. His qufrjt work in making a
ligature of the ends of the Juglar vein
stopped the flow of blood. Dr. Rosen
berg also said that the muscles in
Frank's neck were badly cut and If
he lives he always will have a stiff
neck.
Slaton Regrets Attack
Made on Leo M. Frank
By Associated Press
Seattle, Wash,, July 19.—Surprise
and regret at the attempt on the life
of Leo M. Frank by a fellow convict
at the prison farm at Mllledgeville,
Ga., were expressed by former Gover
nor John M. -Slaton, of Georgia ( here
to-day on his way to San Francisco.
"I do not believe that the attack
on Frank could be traced to any out
side influence working to Frank's de
struction," he said. "I believe the
criminal mind, aroused perhaps by
newspaper reports was responsible.
Frank was put in the safest place
for»htm in the State."
He said he had no reason to regret
commuting Frank's sentence to life
Imprisonment. "I would do it to-mor
row if confronted with the same possi
bility of mistake in the evidence by
which he was convicted." declared Mr.
Slaton.

General Carranza.
Famine conditions in the capital
are described by a Red Cross report
received to-day. Dated July 1, it
says more than 100,000 women on the
previous day applied to the Interna
tional Committee for food tickets. Only
40,000 were available.
"Where formerly 200 persons a day
went to the slaughter house to get the
blood that is saved and given away,"
the report says, "there are now 2,000
daily besieging the gates. Near there
the other day, twenty people were
seen struggling to get pieces of a dead
horse."
The report continues:
"Infants In arms are given food en
tirely unsuited to them and that Is
causing disease among adults. The
rate of Infant mortality consequently
1b very high. The adulteration of
flour and other foods and the limita
tion of the coarser and poorer kinds
are causing much stomach trouble,
both among the Mexicans and foreign
ers, according to the statements of
physicians."

THAW REFUSETTO
TALK DURING STOP
[Continued From First Pa«e.]
Thaw gave out one statement soon
after leaving Philadelphia. It was a
denial of a remark made by him
sometime ago relative to insane peo
ple. A New York newspaper credited
Thaw with saying, "A person once In
sane is always insane." This was given"
an emphatical denial by Thaw, who ex
plained what caused the remark, and
its meaning. The statement was filed
at Lancaster when the train stopped
In that city. ,
From Detective Dean, it was learn
ed that Thaw will rest up at Pitts
burgh. With his mother he will go
into the mountains for a short stay.
On his return he will prepare for an
automobile trip to the Pacific Coast.
This trip may last three months.
When Thaw comes back from tho
coast he expects to go into business at
Pittsburgh.
Won't Talk On Divorce
Asked what Thaw's intentions were
regarding a divorce from Evelyn
I Nesbit Thaw, a reporter for the Tele
j graph was informed that Thaw had
j made no plans. "It will be taken up
I at Pittsburgh on his return from the
; west," was the statement given oiit.
| "He has not changed his opinion along
j this score," spoke up one of the newf-
I papermen.
Thaw was not well received. The
car in which he occupied a stateroom
was Hlled with passengers, all but four
being women, outside of the Thaw
party. None of the passengers showed
any special Interest in Thaw's pres
ence. ' At Lancaster a big crowd was
on the outside of the car and waved
their hands at Thaw. He answered
1 the salute and then moved his seat
away from the window.
Few Greet Him
At the Pennsylvania Railroad station
Thaw was greeted by a few attaches,
and passengers, who boarded the train
for the west in this city.
Pittsburgh Express, on which Thaw
is traveling is due at Pittsburgh at
6:15 this evening. Thaw may get off
at one of the stations east of Pitts
burgh in order to avoid the big
crowd. He selected Pittsburgh Ex
press this morning, because, it was
slow and people would not be look
ing for him on a train of this kind.

Big Clock to Denote
Progress of"Globe" Sale
Uniquo Feature Employed Which At
tracts Attention of Many
People Rally
On the front of The Globe building,
322 and 324 Market street, hangs a
mammoth clock face that Is attracting
much Interest on the part of passers
by. It is one of the features of the
big One Thousand Suit Campaign that
is now being conducted by The Globe,
but differs somewhat from the usual
clock face in that instead of the hours
being designated about the circumfer
ence figures denote the progress of the
big merchandising event.
The sale in connection with which
this feature is being used is a distinct
ive one. On July 10 The Globe an
nounced that it would conduct during
July and August its half-yearly clear
ance of men's and boys' clothing on a
co-operative basis. The plan is to sell
before the close of the sale on August
28 one thousand men's and boys' suits,
in the event of which each participant
in the sale will receive a refund of
6 per cent, on his suit purchase.
The clock face described above
designates from time to time how the
sale is progressing. Although only one
week hat. passed, the hand on the big
clock to-day Indicates that up until
Saturday night 218 suits had been sold
far exceeding the required weelUy
average necessary to reach the goal
for which the big store Is striving.
Full particulars regarding this event,
which the owner of the store, Ben
Strouse, is endeavoring to make the
most Important in the history of the
store, will be found from time to time
in this paper,
