BRIDGE MEASURE j
NEXT TUESDAY
Hill Citizens Want Walnut
Street Viaduct Matter Laid ;
Before Service Body
i
LP TO COMMISSIONERS |
.
Bowman Will Offer Ordinance; j
To Consider Placing of
New Fountain
Preparation of plans and specifica
tions for the new $300,000 bridge
across the Pennsy tracks at Walnut
street for the purpose ftf receiving bids
for construction, will be authorized in
an ordinance to be introduced, it is
understood, in City Council on Tues
day.
While city councilman didn't care |
to discuss the question to-day pending i
Uie offering of the legislation, it was
s.iid in municipal circles that the pur- |
pose in offering the measure at thisj
time was to get something definite to
a'lon'it. to the Public Service Commis
sion
That the question of erecting a
bridge will have to be submitted to
that State body before the city can
proceed with the work, is generally
••onceded inasmuch as the proposed
structure would cross the right of way
of the railroad company.
Urge Introduction of Measure
A committee of Allison Hill citizens
beaded by A. C. McKee called upon
City Commissioner W. H. Lynch, sup
erintendent of streets and public im
provements to-day to urge the intro
duction of the ordinance.
City Commissioner Harry F. Bow
man, who offered the loan ordinance
by request of Mill residents several
months ago, will probably put in the
bridge measure. This will authorize
Commissioner Lynch to have plans and
specifications prepared. The advertising
Xor bids will follow.Whether the board
of public works will be asked by Mr.
Lynch to take charge of the viaduct
is not definitely settled though It Is
uulieved that if the viaduct is erected,
Lynch will handle the job with
* city engineer.
Placing of New Fountain
Mr. Bowman will introduce in
Council his resolution providing for
the taking over of the fountain"The
Dance of Eternal Spring," presented
by M. S. Hershey to Harrisburg, and
directing the placing of the fountain
under the jurisdiction of the water
department. If this is adopted Mr.
Bowman will also suggest the place for
the fountain. Petitions that have been
in circulation in some of the Hill sec
tions ask that the fountain be placed
at the intersection of Whitehall, Twen- i
ty-ftrst and Market streets, just inside
the line of the Reservoir park formal
entrance. President Judge Kunkel it
is said would like to see the fountain
along the river front somewhere in
the vicinity of State street.
Donato Coming Next Week
Sculptor Donato himself is expected
here early next week and Mayor John
K. Royal thinks that the artist should
have a say in the choice of a location.
The slopes of Oak Knob, Reservoir,
however, appears to meet with the
more general approval.
While the proposed Jitney ordinance
may be offered Tuesday, the commis
sioners generally said to-day that it
would not be passed hurriedly but
that due time for a hearing of the Jit
ney drivers and owners would be al
lowed. The jitney men organized last
evening to refute the ads of the Har
risburg Railways company and to ask
a hearing of council on the subject.
The Jitney Regulations
■ Ilartisburg is losing money by the
operation of the jitney," said Com
missioner Bowman to-day, "and it is
only just and proper that the munici
pality should adopt regulations which
will provide a license foe of a surti
t ient size to prevent this; also to pro
\ic!e regulations for safeguarding the
public and so on. This lam certainly
in favor of and 1 believe the other
commissioners think the same. How
ever 1 am opposed to adopting such
regulations as would put the jitnevs
entirely out of busienss. r don't
think this would be fair."
Council will likely take up the com
pletion of the assessment, too, al
though the commissioners will sit for
this purpose after the Council meet
ing. Commissioners declined to esti
mate what the probable increase over
said he believed that from two to
said he believed that form two to
two and a half millions might be pos
sible.

New York. Nov. 27. Men who!
govern and guard the nation are here '
in thousands to-day to see the annual!
football game played by West Point i
and Annapolis. Streets and hotels are i
gay with the gold and gray of the
,Army and the blue and gold of the
Navy. Admirals and generats, cab
inet members, senators and represen- j
tativea are as much in evidence as
policemen. It is estimated that 25,-
000 persons came from outside the
city to see the contest.
| At 2 o'clock the official starting hour
of the game the Midshipmen battalion !
I had not yet arrived at the Polo
| grounds. It was reported that the
I Middies had been delayed in crossing
the North river by the heavy fog. The
i.section of the side line stand reserved
for the sailors yawned bare and yellow
against the surrounding mass of
spectators, and the Army had the
cheering and field to themselves. A
few minutes later the belated navy
contingent swung onto the field headed
by the Naval Academy brass band and j
after several evolutions mounted the j
stand to their seats and the gridiron
was cleared for the real actors of the
day.
At 2:12 the Navy team came on the
field supported by their mascot, the
Navy goat. A moment later the Army
eleven also came onto the field. Both
squads were given a terrific welcome
by their adherents.
They're Off
No time was lost In preliminaries
Both Captain We.vland and Captain
Miles was brought, together by the
referee to choose the field and klckoff.
The Army won and chose to defend
the west goal.
The Army kicked off at 2:19 to the
Navy's 30-vard line where a midship-
I man was downed without gain. Mar
tin on the first rush carried the ball
to his 40-vard line for a first down and
on the next play made 9 yards through
West Point's left tackle. Craig punt
ed to the Army's 20-yard line where
Coffin was downed without gain.
A line buck bv Oliphant, the former
Purdue star, failed to budge the Navy
line and then the Army punted to
Navy's 44.yard mark where Craig
was thrown.
Davis made two yards and then
Martin plunged through right tackle
for two more. The Navy then punted
to the Army's 20-yard line and bvj
magnificent running the Navy carried
1 the hall back to the Armv " 40-vard
. line.
, Coffin punted to the Navy's 10-vard
! line where the ball was fumbled bv
■ the Navy.
t Olipliant Goes Through
1 It was recovered by Weyand of the
Army close to the Navy gojil line.
Ford for the Army failed to gain
through the Navy line, and Cottin also
failed to get any impression on the
Midshipment's defense. It was a won
derful defense on the part of the
Navy close to their goal line. With
one more try the ball was entrusted to
Oliphant and he made good bv smash
ing through Navy's left tackle for a
touchdown. Army kicks goal. Score:
1 Army, 7; Navy, 0.
kicked the goal, making
the score 7 to 0 and the Army sang
their "good night" song.
The Army kicked off to the Navy's
25-yard line. Martin caught the punt
and ran it back to midfield. Davis

sult. Annapolis failing to penetrate

I The first forward pass of the game
was here made by the Navy. It was
from Craig to Johnson and netter five
yards. The Navy immediately tried a
second forward pass but it was spoiled
by McEwan.
Von Heimberg punted to Oliphant
on the Army's 5-yard line, and by
good running and poor tackling on
the part of the Navy carried the ball
Ito West Point's 40-yard mark. Coffin
" plunged through outside Navy' tackle
"jfor eight yards and Oliphant added
' | two more, giving the Army first down.
" .Oliphant punted over Navy goal line
'(for a touch back. The ball was so
! slippery that the players rubbed rosin
ion their hands to better handle the
! pigskin. Von Heimber punted to the
"j Army's 45-yard line when Coffin ran it
I back to the Navy's 35-yard mark.
Navy Penalized
j Oliphant made one yard around
I Navy's left end on a fake kick, Gerd

The first penalty of the game, live
j yards, for off side, was inflicted on the
soldiers. Navy lost fifteen yards for

FOOTBALL LEADERS IN TODAY'S FINAL BATTLE j
niSL.
CAPTAIN ALEX WEYAND, Army. CAPTAIN A. C. MILES, Navy.
Two gridiron leaders promise to be important factors in to-day's battle be
tween the Army and Navy elevens. There has been much discussion as to the
ability of the captains of each team. Alex Weyand, who has been directing the
Army team has a style all his own; while Captain Miles of the Navy, it is said,
seldom uses the same tactics two games in succession. Interesting figures
showing the work of the two teams 'o date, follow:

"2,500 Are Captured by Austro-
German Forces To-day; Aus
trians Advancing
Capture of 2,500 additional Ser
bians is reported by the German war
office to-day.
A semiofficial announcement in Ber
lin gives the number of Serbians taken
prisoner by the Austro-German and
Bulgarian troops as 101.000, while
2.000 Austro-Hungarians who had
been captured by the Serbians were set
free.
The Germans have occupied the

river, west of Pristina and on the
westerly side of the Kossovo plain.
Austrian troops :ire pushing their ad
vance southwest of Mitrovitza.
Field Marshal Earl Kitchener's con
ferences with Italian military authori
ties in R6nie and on the Italian front
have resulted in strengthening the ac
cord between Italy and her allies and
have helped the plans for active as
sistance by Italy in the entente cam
paign in the Balkans, a Rome dispatch
states.
Successes for the Turks on the Gal
lipoli peninsula in inflicting losses
upon the allied troops are announced
Iby Constantinople, lyarge numbers of
the expeditionary force have been
killed, while gun positions have been
destroyed and guns put out of action,

(clares the reports that the Russians
, have retaken rzartorysk, in Volhinia,
nre untrue. It asserts that there are

British Troops Find Turk
Trenches Filled With Dead
and Wounded at Ctesiphon
By Associated Press
I-ondon. Nov. 27. 10:30 A. M.—The
battle between British and Turkish
forces at Ctesiphon, near Bagdad,
which for a time looked like a check
to the Mesopotamian expedition is
now reported to have been a success
of first importance.
Information received to-day is that
the retirement of the British after the
capture of Ctesiphon occasioned by
the lack of water, was only temporary.
After the Turks withdrew in the di
rection of Bagdad, as announced offi
cially yesterday, the British reoccu
pied their former position, encounter
ing no opposition as they took posses
sion of Ctesiphon for the second time.
British troops at once began the
work of clearing the Turkish trenches
which were filled with dead or
wounded soldiers. The British cap
tured a large (|uantlty of arms and
ammunition, in addition to the 1,300
prisoners previously reported.
Ctesiphon has been the scene of
many fateful battles. The ancient city
was besieged and plundered a dozen
times by Greek and Roman invaders
from the East before the Arabs finally
sacked it.

By Associated Press
Nogales, Ariz.. Nov. 27. —With the
evacuation of Nogales, Soriora, by
General Villa's forces and the arrival
here to-day of an additional 1700
United States infantrymen to rein

feeling of security such as had not
been enjoyed since Villa forces took
possession of Nogales, Sonora, follow
ing their defeat at Agua Prieta.
There was evidence of renewed con
fidence in every quarter and the belief
was generally expressed that should
there be a recurrence of the exciting
events of yesterday when Villa snip
pers fired into American territory
from the Mexican side, killing one
soldier and wounding two others, such
an attack would meet with prompt
j and vigorous response.

By ROBERT F. GORMAN
The agitation of West Shore citizens
for the organization of a municipal
co-operative league or association for
improvement and civic betterment
continues to meet with approval and
finds favor in all sections of the com
munity. Expressions of prominent
men as to the benefits of co-operation,
it is believed, will lead rapidly to the
forrhation of an organization. Ira E.
Shaull, one of the live wires in West
Fairview, said to-day: "The oppor
tunity is here to develop all of the
towns and boroughs along the West
Shore. Why should we wait?" And
his statement is seconded by dozens
of other men who are working for the
welfare of the community.

New York, Nov. 27.—-Members of ;
the Protestant Episcopal Church here:
| to-day heard that the contest over the
[sending of delegates of that church
to tho Panama Congress of religtons
1 has been renewed. The question was
! decided by the board of missions of
[the Episcopal church in a session here
I a month ago when it was voted to
J send the delegates. This resulted in
ithe resignation from the board of Dr.
William T. Manning, of Trinity church

posed taking part in the congress.
! Some of the prominent members of

SERB ARMY IN RETREAT
Reported That Invaders Will

on Greek Soil
London. Nov. 27, Noon. —The Ser-I
bian forces soon will become an army |
without a country, unless the French |
should defeat the Bulgarians, four di
visions of whom are said to be .ham
mering at the French lines. Reports
arrive from various sources that
Monastir has been surrounded by Bul
garians and that they may not wait '
for their Austro-German allies before
entering the Macedonian capital.
The main Serbian armv, retreating
in a southwesterly direction before I
Field Marshal Von Mackensen's troops,
may find no rest even in Greek terri
tory, as it is reported here that the
invaders of Serbia would not hesitate
to cross into Greece. Apparently the
Oerman leaders expect the Serbians
and their allies will await attack in

»V. under the supreme commund
of Field Marshal Von Slackensen.
Additional reports from the battle
at Ctesiphon, in Mesopotamia, near
Bagdad, indicate that the British
forces won a substantial success in
stead of suffering a reverse as first
accounts led everyone to believe.
. ,T' le diplomatic representatives at
Athens of the entente powers are still
active, their latest effort to settle defi
nitely all outstanding questions being
the presentation to Premier Skoulou
dls of a note detailing measures
deemed indispensable for the security
j and freedom of action of the allied
| troops.
j The situation along the Rumanian
jtrontier, where a great Russian force
< is said to have been gathered, is still
■ obscure. The display bv the Ru
manian public of feeling in favor or
the entente Is regarded in London as
an indication that the nation is in a
position to disregard the demands of
the central powers.
No definite news has been received
of the renewed Austro-German offen
sive in Galicia. It is expected, how
ever, that this movement will be
pushed energetically for the political
effect on Rumania.
