FREIGHT EMBARGO
HITS LOCAL YARDS
Orders Prohibit All Freight
From Connecting Lines;
Cars Tied Up
Facing the possibility of being
swamped with freight, now that many
of the trunk line railroads entering
Kew York have prohibited shipments
varying all the way from special prod
ucts to a complete embargo, the Penn
sylvania Railroad yesterday placed an
embargo on all freight originating on
connecting lines and destined for the
New York district. The order includes
Harrlsburg , Enola and Marysvllte,
where shipments are classified.
The embargo exempts freight origi
nating from points directly on the
Pennsylvania railroad, the Philadel
phia, Baltimore and Washington and
the West Jersey and Seashore railroad,
likewise It makes an exception of cer
tain classes of perishable freight.
Kxcept for a few commodities, the
order prevents the carriage of all ship
ments coming from other roads,
whether handled for export or New
York city. Exceptions have been made
in the case of livestock, dressed meats,
flour and foodstuffs for local consump
tion. coal for delivery at Harsimus
Cove. N. J., and coal for public service
corporations.
Cars Tied Up
Figures showing the actual number
of cars with goods for export tied up
awaiting movement, based on con
ditions yesterday morning, gave a total
of 5,775 cars. This is a decrease of
371 cars, compared with the previous
24 hours. Of these cars 2,311 are
stored between Philadelphia and New
York, an Increase of 70: 3,464 are on
sidings on the various divisions, a de
crease of 441 over Sunday. The Penn
sylvania unloaded at New York on
Sunday 85 cars for export.
The Philadelphia and Reading Rail
way announced yesterday that it had
levied no embargoes further than that
on export grain through the port of
Philadelphia, which was put into effect
some days ago. The local situation, it
was said at the offices, was in no way
serious. Plenty of steamships to move
the grain accumulations are either in
port or destined to arrive shortly.
RAILROAD NOTES
Another assignment of Philadelphia
division passes was made to-day.
The large siding of the Pennsyl
vania Railroad at Duncannon used for
unloading cars is now doing service as
a storage siding.
An alarm clock, shaving outfit and
other articles await identification at
the police department of the Pennsyl
vania Railroad. They were taken from
Thomas Jenkins, who is being held as
a pusnect.
Lucknow Shopmen Held
on Brass Theft Charges
Three employes of the Lucknow
shops of the Pennsylvania Railroad
have been held for court on a charge
of larceny. They are John Gibboney,
George Nagle and Samuel Fisher.
These men are charged with stealing
brass. It Is the belief that the thefts
have been carried on for three years.
The men, it is said, srtld the brass to
lsraol Levitt. 1106 North Seventh
street, who is charged with receiving
stolen Roods. Captain Barclay, head of
the railroad police department, made
the arrest. He has been on the case
for some time. The oases were heard
last night. by George A. Hoverter, al
derman of the Ninth ward.

KKCOMMEND "GUII/TY BUT
INSANK" FOR "NOT GIII/TY"
By Associated Press
New York, Dec. 14.—Substitution of
the verdict "Guilty, but insane," for
the verdict of not guilty, rendered by
juries in cases where insane persons
have committed crimes, is recom
mended by a committee of the Society
of Medcal Jurisprudence in a report
to that body.
For Acid Stomachs
Use Magnesia
The almost universal use of mag
nesia by physicians and specialists in
the treatment of stomach troubles in
due to the fact that It neutralizes thw
excessive acid and thus stops food fer
mentation the direct cause of near
ly all stomach trouble. Of the many
forms of magnesia such as oxides,
citrates, carbonates, sulphates, etc., ths
one now supplied In either powder or
tablet form and especially recommend
ed for acid stomachs Is hlsnraled mag
nesia, a tcaspoonful of which in a lit
tle warm water Immediately after eat
ing will Instantly neutralize the ex
cessive acid, stop fermentation, and
thus ensure painless normal digestion.
Be sure to get blsurated magnesia
rathor than any other magnesia, as this
form Is prepared especially for thi*
treatment of acid stomachs. The live
grain tablets are the most convenient:
for physicians and travelers to carrjr
and two tablets are equivalent to a
teaspoonful of the powder. Take two
of the tablets (with or without water*
or a teaspoonful of the powder in a
quarter of a glass of water after each
meal. Stomach sufferers and dyspep
tics who follow this plan and avoid tn»
use of pepsin, charcoal, soda mints,
drugs and medicines are astonished to
find that the stomach, relieved of th«
irritating acid and gas, soon regains
Its normal tone, and can do its work
alone without the doubtful aid of arti
ficial digestants.—Advertisement.
