Train Going 50 Mtles an Hour
The train was running about fifty
miles an hour when It ploughed into
thl- workmen. It takes a curve a short
distance from where the accident oc
curred. Foreman H. B. Mills, In
charge of the repair gang, was sta
tioned west of the workmen. He says
he blew his warning whistle when he
heard the express coming, but that
the men were unable to escape the on
coming flyer because of their being
blocked between the trains on the
tracks to the right and left.
The men were knocked from the
track like tenpins. Two of the bodies
■were hurled fifty feet. All were hor
ribly mangled.
Trainmen and passengers went to
the scene of the accident promptly.
The only man showing any life was
Frank E. McCool.
The accident was reported to Middle
division headquarters and orders were
received to send the express east and
have the members of the crew make a
statement regarding the accident on
their arrival at Harrisburg.
Engine Covered With Blood
The train reached the Pennsylvania
Kailroad station at 9.15 a. m. The
front of the big passenger engine. No.
189, was covered with blood. A straw
hat was found beneath the spark box.
Portions of clothing, including one
shoe, were taken from .the engine
when it arrived on the pit at No. 1
roundhouse. Small bits of flesh were
also sticking to the pilot and right
hand cylinder boxes.
The members of the crew were all
from Harrisburg. As soon afe they
made their usual reports at the sta
tion they went to the office of Assistant
Freight Trainmaster Jacob E. White
man. of the Middle division, at DE
office, where they cave their testimony
to William E. Schraedley, the chief

Engineer Trout said the fog was
heavy this morning. He did not see
any trackmen at work until he was too
near to stop his train. The men were
on the left side of the track. Two
other trains were passing and he Is of
the opinion the men not only failed
to hear the warning from their fire

the election of controllers. This pro-1
vides that the tenure shall be two
years while the controllers hold that
the constitution provides ror a four

is unconstitutional. The case at any
rate would have to be settled by the
courts and as most of the controllers
have decided to adopt the "safety

same. The case may be tested out In
the courts but whether this will be

charges against Hoak wno was

Tests were taken recently of milk
and cream that Hoak had been selling
to Harrisburg consumers, tne samples
showing that the product did not
come up to the requirements of the
ben Ith rules.
Several other dealers were brought
before Alderman Hoverter this morn
ing for a hearing. They were allowed
to go after being warned ana paying
the costs as it was the first t?me that
they had sold milk below standard.
Other hearings were held late this

HARD COAL PRICES
MAY BE REDUCED
[Continued from First Page.]
The commission charges the roads
with having granted concessions and
offsets to their allied coal companies
"which have in effect been rebates In
violation of law.
Commissioner Harlan, who dissent
ed, contended that while modification
of many coal rates was justified, the
action was inconsistent in view of the
recent rate increase for practically all
other traffic.
The decision is' the result of an in
quiry instituted by the commission
three years ago.
Local Coal Dealers Not
Sure About Reductions
Local coal dealers are not positive
that the reductions ordered by the In
terstate Commerce Commission on
freight shipments of- coal will affect
the prices of hard coal sold here.
The coal dealers are not sure about
the rulings of the commission in re
gard to shipments to interior points.
If they apply to coal sent to points
within the state and a cut in freight
prices for these shipments, it is ex
pected that the nrice of coal will he
reduced eventually However. If the
reduction only applies to shipments to
other states and on tidewater orders,
no reduction in retail prices is pre
dicted.
As no official orders have been re
ceived. according to the retailers, they
are not well enough informed, they
said, to make any forecast of hard coal
prices In the future.
The condition arising before the
coal operators for next April is caus
ing much comment throughout the
city. Both the bituminous and an
thracite agreements with the United
Mine Workers expire at that time, the
first time such a state of affairs ever
loomed up for the dealers.
Just what will happen at the ex
piration of the agreement is the cause
of the apprehension. The local deal
ers believe that one thing the mine
workers will ask for will be the rec
ognition of the union, and this, they
believe, will not he done hv the op
erators. •

Bishops and Cardinals to
Aid in Peace Movement
London, Aug. 13.—A dispatch to the
Mcrning Post from Rome says:
"The Italian press gives prominence
to a statement circulated by a news
agency which is generally well in
formed on vatlcan affairs to the effect
that Cardinals Gibbons and O'Connell,
ol Baltimore and Boston, respectively,
have called a meeting of the neutral
cardinals and bishops to be held in
the course of a few weeks in Switzer
land to discuss some concrete pro
posal for arranging terms of peace
between the helligerents.
"It would appear that these cardi
nals have invited the Catholic authori
ties in neutral countries to such a con
ference. which, though not officially
inspired by the Vatican, has undoubt
edly received unofficial approval.
"For the moment the pope in his
last message directed to the peoples
and rules at war has said his last word
on the question of peace and any fur
ther initiative must come from outside.
The fact that Cardinal Gibbons had a
long conference with President Wilson
on the question of acting as an Inter
mediary is supposed to have given zest
to the initiative of the cardinals.
"It would seem that this Initiative
also was not unknown to or uninspired
from Gfernaan and Austrian sources."
Bishop John W. Shanahan,,of the
Harrisburg diocese of the Catholic
Church, said that he had received no
message from Cardinals Olbbons and
O Connell of a meeting of the neutral
cardinals, and bishops to be held In
! Switzerland. He said that he was not
i positive whether he would attend the
; meeting If he does receive a nqtlce

"HATCHET FIEND" HUNTS
SOME WOMAN TO GET
REVENGE THINK COPS
Will a slender band wedding ring
be the tiny clue which will lead to
the capture of the mysterious "hatchet
fiend," who has terrorized Steelton by
brutally wounding seven pretty young
women as they slept in as many mid
night visits in various parts of the
town?
That ■ this may be true, is the be
lief of Detective Irvin Durnbaugh. the
man who as chief of police in 1908
ran down and captured single-handed
in the stone quarries at Rheams, Lan
caster county, Peter Celope, murderer
of a fellow countryman in Steelton,
after the foreigner had eluded many
other officers.
Detective Durnbaugh formed this
opinion after discovering that each
time the "hatchet fiend" pays his
bloody visits to some home, he takes
away with him every band ring which
he can find by ransacking the house.
Other jewelry of far more value he
never touches.
It was around just such a clue as
this that detectives wove the skein of
the law in the mysterious London
murder case later made famous by
A. Conan Doyle In "A Study in Scar
let."
In that case the only clue was a
tiny circle of gold found beside the
body of the murderer's victim, and, in
that famous case jealousy and a de
sire for revenge proved to be the mo
tive for the crime.
So In the recent crimes here attri
buted to the "hatchet fiend," believes
Detective Durnbaugh, there seems to
be no other motive except some fan
atical desire for revenge. But what
injury, real or imagined, that the crim
inal may be desiring to avenge, no one
seems to know.
Durnbaugh who has conducted a
searching Investigation has formed a
theory. In his own words It is this:
"Back somewhere In Austria," the
Nemesis of Peter Celope mused, "I be
lieve there might have been two boy
chums. Of course, there was 'the
girl.' Perhaps one of the chums told
the other that he was going to give
the girl he married a curiously marked

ring on their wedding day. And per
haps the other chum found the great
er favor in the eyes of 'the girl.'
"Then perhaps the favored chum
obtained the girl's promise to marry
him before he went away for his en
forced military service. But during
his absence, suppose the other chum
'put one over' and married the girl?
"Then," continued the detective,
"perhaps the military chum swore
vengeance. Years may have passed and
the wedded ones have come here. The
Jilted one followed.
"Do you see what I mean?" queried
the detective.
"Why I believe," continued he,
"that that's just what happened. I
believe our 'hatchet fiend' is seeking
the woman he was to marry back in
Austria years ago. Brooding over his
tragedy, he has become half insane.
He thinks he will recognize the ring
his chum of other days showed him.
When he 'pulls off' one of his daring
midnight visits and, after looking over
all the rings, finds he is not yet at the
end of his search, I believe, he be
comes enraged and smacks the near
est woman over the head with an ax
or hatchet.
"I may be wrong," concluded the
man who has solved many a myster
ious crime, "but that's my theory, and
I am going to run down the clue of
one of the rings the assailant took
from Mrs. Patterson the other night.
It, unlike the other rings, bore two
tiny initials on the Inside."
Since the latest attack of the
"hatchet fiend," Monday night upon
Mrs. John Patterson, 401 Francis
street, Steelton has been terrorized.
Every night the police are flooded with
telephone calls from excitable women
who Imagine they have seen "the
hatchet fiend" prowling about their
homes. No foundation has yet been
discovered for any of these reports.
When the "hatchet fiend" comes he
gives no warning—and leaves no
clue. Reports that he was seen in
Mohn street Wednesday night and in
the West Side again last night were
groundless, the police say.

SOAP IS BAD
FOR THE HAIR
,
Soap should be used very sparingly,
if at all, if you want to keep your hair
looking its best. Most soaps and pre
pared shampoos contain too much
alkali. This dries the scalp, makes the
hair brittle, and ruins It.
The best thing for steady use is just
ordinary mulsified cocoanut oil (which
is pure and greaseless), and is better
than soap or anything else you can use.
One or two teaspoonfuls will cleanse
the hair and scalp thoroughly. Simply
moisten the hair with water and rub it
ill. It makes an abundance of rich,
creamy lather, which rinses out easily,
removing every particle of dust, dirt,
dandruff and excessive, oil. The hair
dries quickly and evenly, and It leases
