With regard to the distribution of
the tax which the Supreme Court de
clared contrary to the Constitution,
the petition says:
"Even if it be true that the provi

the tax. The two matters are so sep

sustained though the distribution pro

the case from the start. The petition
was filed in the St. Clair Coal Com

COMPLETTCHANGE
IN SCHOOL SYSTEM
[Continued hYom First l'agc.]
| the more densely populated districts
of the county.
Claiming that a teacher should have
one class of children, not for one term
of school work only, but for a period
of three or four years. Dr Claxon de
clared that from his own personal ex
! perience he was positive that the pu
pils who went through the above
course would be at least fifty per cent,
more advanced than students who
had a new teacher each year.
Declaring that toachers are respon
sible for the physical, mental and
spiritual development of the child he
urged them to investigate the home
conditions of each pupil and to learn
what to expect from the child. He
went on to say that the teacher to
become successful must know the ex
periences of the child before the boy
or girl comes to school and while out
side of school: that the teacher must
know the child's hereditary instincts
and influences, physical and mental,
and must know the ideals of each boy
and girl. In order to know these
things and make the present day pub
lic school a success in educating the
boys and girls. Dr. Claxon then pre
sented his prediction of the complete
revolution of the public school system
now In use in the United States."
Criticises Gum Chewing Teachers
At the afternoon session Mrs. Alice
M. Carmalt, of the University of Pitts
burgh spoke on "Manners and Morals
—Our Problems." Asserting that the
United States is a nat-.on with a con
science, and that to maintain its pre
sent, position the boys and girls must
be properly trained in manners and
morals, Mrs. Carmalt said that the
school teachers of to-day are respon
sible for the men and women of the
future who will represent the nation.
She criticised the teacher who chews
gum and uses slang.
The other addresses of the after
noon were made by Dr. O. L. Warren,
of Elmira, X. Y„ and Dr. Claxon. The
former spoke on "Pedagogical Sign
boards," and the latter on "Co-oper
ation of School and Home." In this
address Dr. Claxon praised the parent
teachers' association. He favored the
plan of making the rural school the
social center of the vicinity, and spoke
strongly in favor of establishing homes
for teachers in country districts, to
be operated at the expense of the
State the same as the public school.
At the section meeting in the House
Caucus room this morning Dr. War

MILLIONS LOST IN
BETHLEHEM FIRE

of these guns will reach perhaps a rnil
! lion dollars.
| The lire is said to have resulted from
| a spark from an electric light bulb
which exploded falling into a pool of
oil. Almost instantly there flashed up
a sheet of tiaine which encompassed
the whole building. The main efforts
of the steel company firemen were
devoted to saving adjoining buildings
when it was seen that No. 4 machine
shop could not be saved. As yet the
steel company has not given out an
official statement concerning the tire
or its loss. The latter will be heavy,
as the contents of four floors now lie a
• mass of twisted material on the first
' floor.
Worth Several Millions
! There were about 1,000 machines
t of different kinds in the building, run
-1 ning from lathes, shapers, drills, on
| down to boring machines. These ma
; chines were worth from S4OO to sev
j oral thousand dollars each and it is
I estimated that the value of the ma
chinery was several million dollars.
In the neighborhood of 80f' men
were at work when the fire started and
so rapidly did it spread that some em
ployes had to make their escape by
; means of ropes from .the different
floors.
From workmen it was learned that
the fire started among oil near the
entrance to the plant. This oil flows
in conduits and is used to gather up
flying chips which escape in the op
eration of gun horing. There was only
a spark of fire at first, which some
workman started to put out by throw
ing on water. Then followed a mighty
flash and tip leaped a flame as high
as the structure, which seemed at once
to envelope the whole of the big
building.
General Marms Sounded
General alarms were sounded not
only in the steel works but throughout
the boroughs of South Bethlehem,
Bethlehem, Fountain Hill and North
ampton Heights. In a short time East
Tlilrd street was thronged with fire
engines, which pumped water onto the
burning building.
The fire started on the south side
of the building arfd soon ate Its way
through the structure to the north
side. Floor after floor, loaded down
with machinery, collapsed and fell to
the first floor, where it lay in a Jum
bled mass. As far as known there was
no loss of life. The fire probably will
burn all day.
Some heavy losers are many of (he
employes, who lost all their tools, sev
eral having as much as SIOO worth in
the building.

News of Sinking Was
Held Up in England
By dissociated Press
London. Nov. 10. 12.30 P. M.—News
of the sinking of the Aneona was not
made public in London until shortly
before noon, when the censor released
the first dispatch from New York on
the subject. This dispatch referred to
the fact that a sensation had been
caused by the torpedoing of the An
eona, but as nothing previously had
been heard of the disaster the mes
sage was incomprehensible. Subse
quently, however, a flood of messages
from Home was released.
I Submarines Active at
Point Where Ancona
Was Attacked and Sunk
By Associated Press
New York, Nov. 10.—No word con
cerning the sinking of the Ancona had
been received at. noon to-day by Hart
field, Solari & Co., local agents for the
Italian and it was thought in
steamship circles that the rigid Italian
censorship had caused numerous pri
vate and press dispatches to be held
back. A message from Rome last
night stated there were 482 passengers
on the Ancona, instead of 422, as given
in previous messages. William Hart
field. general manager for the line
here, said the crew numbered 160,
making the total ship's company 642.
Cm this number 270 passengers, a
number of them injured, are reported
to have been landed at Bizerta. while
a later message stated two of the An
cona's boats with f.4 of the crew had
landed at Cape Bon. Tunis, about 70
miles east of Bizerta.
The Ancona, according to the local
agents, was scheduled to sail from Na
ples yesterday. After leaving Naples
the steamer would pass through the
Tyrrhenian sea and enter the Medi
terranean between Cardinia and Sicily
The meager dispatches indicate that
the Ancona was sunk within the com
paratively small triangle the points of
which are the southern end of Sar
dinia. the western end of Sicilv and
Bizerta. Tunis.
The Austrian submarine reported to
have torpedoed and sunk the Ancona
it was thought here, probably was
Iving in wait for the Ancona at oi
near the entrance to the Malta chan
nel. which is a narrow strip of the
Mediterranean between Sicily and the
coast of Africa. Austrian and Ger
man submarines have been active in
this region of late, according to cable
reports.
War vessels and transports of the
nllies en route to the scene of op
erations at the Dardanelles, as well as
the forces sent to Salonlki. all passed
