EXPLAIN NEW LAW TO MEAT DEALERS " More than 150 meat dealers of this city and vicinity who sell meats in the I five city markets were present this afternoon at the big mass meeting held in courtroom No. 2. Arrangements for the big meeting were made by Dr. John M. J. Raunick, city health officer, to give the farmers and butchers a chance to have the new law passed by the Legislature explain ed to them. This act requires the dealer to prohibit prospective custom ers from handling meats on sale, and demands that the dealer keep these products properly screened. Drs. S. E. Bruner and John H. Turner, agents of the State Livestock Sanitary Board, were present to speak to the dealers. City Commissioner Harry F. Bowman, superintendent of the Department of Public Safety, Dr. Raunick and Drs. William V. Hughes and G. A. Zimmerman, city food in spectors, also spoke at the meeting. Many'of the butchers favored hav ing the meat stands in the city mar kets placed in one section properly equipped to meet the requirements of the new State law. Others were in favor of keeping all food stuffs that might be contaminated, screened. This is not embodied in any State law, according to Dr. Raunick, but he also favored this move. Many questions were asked Dr. Rau nick and the State officials, in regard to the new law which was fully ex plained. Dr. Clarence J. Marshall, State veterinarian, also addressed the butchers.

As the normal crop totals in the neighborhood of 130,000,000 bushels, which is insufficient for Mex ico's 15,000.000 inhabitants, the mis ery and distress which has prevailed for months past will be greatly accen uated during the winter months. FORCING VP PRICES London, Oct. 20.—The latest indus trial combination to force up its prices is the Launderers' Association, which adds 10 per cent, to laundry bills because the British public is al- j leged to wear 12,000,000 fewer collars since the war than before the war. This saving in collars Is based, says the secretary, on the assumption that the 3,000,000 men now in the army and navy used to send an average of four collars a week to be washed.

Haskin [Continued from Editorial Past'.] ly harbor a wonderful collection of races and types from all South and Central America. Uncle Sam, for his part, has secured space in one of the Panamanian build ings for the exhibits of American man ufacturers, and has promised to bring down from San Francisco In govern ment transports some of the very best features of the great California fairs. These are expected to be a splendid j drawing card to the rest of Latin America. Collect ion of Tropical l.ife The exhibits of the Republic of Pan ama are to form the basis of a Na tional Museum. Expert collectors have been employed in studying and collecting birds and beasts of the | Panama jungle and the fishes of neigh boring waters. A splendid collection of tropical life has thus been made, which includes many specimens entire ly new to science. The Isthmus of Panama is un doubtedly an unexplored wonderland of plant and animal life. There is probably not a citizen of the world who is more richly endowed by nature than the Panamanian. Plantains, cocoa nuts. yams, bananas and other nour ishing products grow almost without cultivation. The bays and inland streams are fairly aswarm with fish, the open country of the Sabanas sup plies corn and supports herds of cat tle. who are kept sleek by a grazing season that lasts all the year around. Withal, Panama has an equitable ex terminated by the zealous Yankee. It is these advantages of climate and pro ductivity which the Panamanian is eager to bring before the rest of the world. DEPRESSION HERE AFTER THE WAR [Continued From First Page.] ROGER W. BABSON capital would vanish, he said, did labor but come to the understand ing that it cannot benefit Itself but by a plan that will benefit capital also and capital would be much more ready to yield a fair share of profits to labor fit itself in a permanent way it must also benefit labor. Unless both reach this common ground of adjusting dif ferences. Mr. Babson said, there will be tremendous and destructive labor troubles throughout the* U nited States following the war when employers en deavor to reduce the wages of men now hired at fabulous prices to turn out war materials that are being made at any cost and the orders for which will cease with the conflict in Europe. Mr. Rabson gave it as his opinion that there will be no rush of immi gration from Europe to America after the war. but that the balancing up of trade is sure to create a period of tem porary depression until we can adjust ourselves to peace conditions. Sneaking most heartily in favor of profit-sharing as operated by a large number of industries in this country, Mr. Babson interpolated the remark that "the greatest trouble with the church of to-dav is that it has per mitted its problems to be handled by nhilanthropists instead of by scien tists. Mr. Mabson pronounced neace arbi tration but a makeshift and declared that there will be no international peace until the nations of the world come to the understanding that the law of action and reaction annlies to the world as well as to the individual and that national welfare must bal ance: one nation cannot permanently prosper at the expense of another. Henderson Gilbert, president of he Chamber, introduced E. J. Stackpole a.' chairman and Mr. Stackpole in turn nresented Mr. Babson, commenting on the good fortune of the Chamber to have the opportunity of hearing the men of national reputation who have spoken before the members recently. The luncheon was one of the largest of the year. INQUIRY INTO MURDER Charleston, S. C.. Oct. 20.—The coro ner's inouest into the death of Sidney J.

WOMAN'S I.Kti BROKBN Special to The Telegraph Sunbury, Pa.. Oct. '.'o. Falling while crossing a railroad track at Milton. Mi#« K. Gass, Sunbury, suffered j GOOD THINGS AT PURE FOOD SHOW Mrs. Harris Burg Sees Many Strange Sights at Big Event By Mrs. Harris Burg Did the rain keep me from the Pure Food Exhibition last night? Well, 1 guess not. After my thor oughly enjoyable experience of the night before I simply couldn't permit so small an obstacle as a rainy even ing to stand in my way, so I jitneyed. Yes, 1 jitneyed to the Chestnut street auditorium and resumed my tour where I left off the night before. I did not tarry, for a Flowery Bower of loveliness just inside the gates of Fairyland attracted my attention. There. 1 saw two very charming young Ladies' Bountiful" making hearts glad with Utopian chocolates. Now, my heart was far from sad hut the deliciousness of Utopian raised my spirits to a higher pitch of keen de light. I fain would linger here but the rich, fragrant aroma of making spaghetti calls me on and the spirit of conquest is again in my blood. My eye is attracted by a familiar bluo label on a mountain of various sized cans. For a better view I move closer and behold an old acquaintance, Mr. Henry who introduces me to Wag ner's Spaghetti—with tomato sauce and cheese. lam served, most cour teously, with a generous dish. The golden morsels fairly melt in my mouth. Inwardly I bless the inventor of Spaghetti and especially Mr. Wag ner. But I move ever onward. Now I find myself surrounded by an excited throng. It takes but little time, however, to discover that "The Jumping Calf" Is the cause of it all. E very bod v in the world, it seems, is making their guess on the probable number of leaps and bounds of the frolicsome calf. You've surmised cor rectly. It is the exhibit of the Capital City Dairy Company. They hand me an attractive booklet, dispelling my antiquated prejudice against Butter ine. Nothing, however, so quickly and completely removes my objections as does the sample served on crispy crackers. But, I must make way for others, eager to taste the taste of But terine, and my next stop is before the beautifully decorated booth of the antisuffragists. I had some ideas of my own on the suffrage question but am not long in being shown why the home is the plaice for we, of the weaker sex. And then, delight of delights—Russ' Velvet ice cream served in daintv crinkly cones. This is surelv a night of nights. Just a few steps and 1 find myself before a bower of snowy whiteness, presided over by a milkmaid in freshly-starched linen. I am helped to crystal cups of rich, creamy milk —and sandwiches. Here I am told of the careful handling, the expert analysis, and sanitary conditions un der which the Pennsylvania Milk Products Company handles its pro ductions of pure milk, cream, butter milk and butter. Another field of new-found delights to me. On my left is a platform, which at first apears to be a stage set for a drama, or, perhaps an opera. I look again and I see that the cottage, the barn, the old well, and even the fence, are all built of packages of Franklin refined sugar. Advisedly. I would call it a very sweet picture, indeed. After a time before this attractive scene, I retrace my steps and am be fore the exhibit of Valea pitted dates, cleaned currants and a diversity of dried fruits of Sunny California. T w'as informed by the gentleman in charge, that the goods for demonstra tion had unfortunately been delayed by the recent slide of ever-restiess Culebra, in the Panama Canal. I, too, regretted the delay. I've now* acquired the "sampling" habit which is being aided and abetted by courteous dem onstrators everywhere. Again I find it impossible to "do" the show in as short a time as at first anticipated so I drag my tired, but happy footsteps to the outer room to see if I am not one of the lucky ones in the basket awards for the e\ enlng. I am not, but I'll try again to-morrow night. The lucky ones were: W. A Rid dle, New Cumberland; D. Miles Sher rick, 1713 North Third street; H. D. Schriver, 247 Hummel street; Mrs. ( harles Krlse, 1104 Plum avenue* J. C. Finner, 364 South Cameron street, and D. R. Hoffman. Lemoyne. The three unclaimed baskets will be given to persons holding numbers 21,317, 21.478 and 21,092, if called for before 7:30 o'clock tjiis evening. The singers at the Columbus Hotel out of courtesy to the Franklin Sugar Refining Company, exhibitors at the show, have promised to give a con cert at the Pure Food Exhibit ThttTs day evening as an added feature of entertainment. JOHN A. MURRAY John A. Murray, aged 28, 618 Oxford street, died last night from a compli cation of diseases. He is survived by his wife and infant daughter, his father and mother, Mr. and Mrs. E. VV.

OCTOBER 20, 1915 Twins Cause Trouble in Football Contest Special to The Telegraph Cleveland, Ohio, Oct. 20.—1t doesn't always pay for two brothers to play on a football team. Just ask either of the Wrights, both members of the Cleveland Shaw High grid squad. Don Wright played quarterback in the game against Erie High. The sec ond quarter was In progress when the referee blew his whistle and stopped play. Walking up to Wright, he laid his hand on the player's shoulder and said: "You get off the field. I'm go ing to penalize your team half the dis tance to the goal line." "What for?" inquired the surprised Wright. "You were talking with your coach while play was in progress." the offi cial answered. Then Coach Canfield. of Shaw, came running onto the field ami explained matters. "That wasn't Don. It was Douglas Wright, a substitute end," he said. "They both look alike." And sure enough, when the umpire looked the two over he couldn't tell the difference. President "Yes"; Fiancee "No" on Woman Suffrage Washington, D. C„ Oct. 20.—The at titude of Mrs. Norman Gait, fiancee of President Wilson, on the votes for women question became known yes terday, when, without allowing herself to be interviewed. Mrs. Gait permitted the statement to go out that she was not for suffrage. This does not mean Mrs. Gait Is an active "anti." She has not allied her self with either party, and having lived just half her life in Washington, where even men have not had the vote in forty years, is not vitally interested in the subject. This declaration from Mrs. Gait on the day when the President was voting 'yes" on the much debated question is giving preat comfort to the antisuf fragists of the District of Columbia, and will be regarded as active support ir. the campaign States—Pennsylvania, New York and Massachusetts.

MEALS WILL BE ONLY CANDIDATE [Continued From First I'aso.] alphabetical order on an equal foot ing. The question of whether or not ex- Mayor Meals had won a place alone for the November election by the number of votes he received at the primaries had been agitating Harris burg's voters for some weeks. That Dr. Meals did and did not come within the fifty per cent, clause of the 1915 supplementary act had been argued again and again. The act provides that the primary candidate who receives more than half of the total vote cast and more than half of the total number of bal lots cast, shall be the sole nominee at the general election. That Dr. Meals won more than half of the number of votes cast was easily deter mined. How to comply with the rest of the clause had the commissioners and their adviser guessing until this morning. Then Colonel Ott advised the careful counting of the number of ballots issued to voters as indicated by the check lists of the election boards of the city. This count was finished late this afternoon. The computation disclosed the fact that 11.994 ballots had been issued and cast, half of which is 5,997. At the primaries, however. Dr. Meals got 6,615 votes, just 608 more than halt' the required number. FAHMHII DIES AT 05 Spefial to The Telegraph Sunbury, Pa., Oct. 20.
