Begun by Karl T. Opperman to
whom the .contract was awarded
nearly three years ago, the creek lob
was completed by the West Construc
tion Company of Baltimore to whom
the unfinished contract was sublet by
the Maryland Casualty Company, Op
perman's bondsmen. Opperman was
able to finish only a small portion of
the Job.
Work Was Hindered
By the vote of the people SIOO,OOO
was provided to improve the creek
and Opperman's bid of SBI,OOO was
accepted. The whole operation how
ever cost much more it is figured, and
at" least $26,000 of this was lost by
the West Company.
High water, severe rains, the un
favorable condition of the weather in
the late Fall and early Spring— all
these elements entered into the gen
eral delay. At that, however, the
West company pushed the work as
consistently as possible and to-day the
completed job is considered another
one of Harrisburg's splendid public
improvements.

Twenty-eight Arrests. Twenty
eight arrests for violation of the pure
food laws were ordered to-day by
Dairy and Food Commissioner Foust,
mostly in Dauphin, Philadelphia and
Lancaster counties, with a few in
Mifflin. The cases arose out of discov
ery that various food products were
adulterated, the Dauphin cases being
of coffee, cherries and similar articles,
while the Philadelphia cases were ten
for sale of adulterated soft drinks and
five for sale of eggs unfit for food.
Speeding Up Settlements. —Auditor
General Powell estimates that as a re
sult of the speeding up of settlements
for State taxes from corporations ap
proximately 28,000 settlements have
been sent Out. The State should begin
to get the money from them in the
next two months. The balance in the
State Treasury is now.less than what it
was in the general fund alone at this
time last year. The establishment of
new funds has depleted it considerably
and no school districts have been paid.
Water Company Gets Busy.—Advices
were received by the Public Service
Commission from counsel for the
Johnstown Water Company stating
that at a meeting of the directors of
that company held yesterday the su
perintendent was authorized to at once
secure the pipes and facilities neces
sary to supply the residents of that
part of the Seventeenth ward of the
city of Johnstown, known as the Wal
nut Grove section, and also to secure
without delay the necessary rights of
way for the construction of these fa
cilities In order that the work may be
prcceeded with at once. Heretofore
residents of the Walnut Grove section
have been obtaining their supply of
water for household use from various
springs and private wells in the neigh
borhood and eight of the twelve cases
of typhoid fever during the latter part
of May apparently obtained all their
water supply from a well in that sec
tion. The State Department of Health
made an examination of the territory
in question and instructions were
given to the residents there to boil the
water obtained from the well until
such time as a more adequate and
safer source should be installed in the
district. This action of the water
company is in response to a complaint
filed by residents of Walnut Grove sec
tion with the commission.

RIVER ROAD SPEEDING
[Continued from First Page.]
question of so grading the roadway as
to make it convenient and satisfactory
for pedestrians to keep off the road
way and in this way eliminate the
danger to people who travel a-foot.
"Speeding on the river roadway
certainly must be stopped," declared
the district attorney to-day. "Numer
ous accidents have occurred in this
section due to collisions between auto
mobiles or motorcyclists and these
are caused in many instances by ex
ceeding the proper limits.
"Many autoists however, are an
noyed by young men, usually from the
city who step out into the roadway in
the way of passing autoists for the
express purpose of stopping them.
Now because of the condition of the
roadwaV —there are really no side
walks you know—many people must
use the highway to walk upon.
"Autoists have no more privilege on
the roadway so far as this is concerned
than pedestrians and vice versa. The
roadway is there for the equal con
venience of both and not for either to
the exclusion of the other. If both
autoists and pedestrians could keep
this in mind there would be reason to
complain."
DIAMOND IMPORT PROHIBITED
London, July 29. A royal proclama
tion prohibits the importation into the
United Kingdom of unset diamonds ex
cept under special license. This step
has been taken presumably on account
of the alleged sale recently of consid
erable quantities of German stones on
tue English market.
WARSAW SITUATION CRITICAL
London. July 29. "Although it Is
possible the present German drive may
fail as the attacks on Bolimow failed
last January, the roar of guns and the
arrival of wounded have convinced the
population of Warsaw that the situa
tion is critical," said the correspondent
of the Times in that city In a dispatch
filed Saturday.
