ORDERED TROOPERS TO RETURN FIRE [Continued From First Pajje.] south and that 5,000 more were within a short distance of the town. The name of the commander was not men tioned. but it was said General Villa is not with the party. The arrival of the troops revived the report that the ar rangements to surrender had fallen through and that the town would not be turned over to the Carranza gov ernment. Villa soldiers In Juarez, who. clamor ing for their wages, broke from mili tary control yesterday and enacted scenes of disorder which resulted in the killing on the American side of an American trainman and several Mexicans in Juarez, early to-day were still unpaid. The money, however, is on deposit In El Paso, awaiting the appointment by the Mexican authori ties of an authorized paymaster. Killed By Snipers Strong representations have been made to Mexican Consul Andreas G. Garcia by General J. J. Pershing, com manding the Eighth Brigade, at Fort Bliss, regarding the death of the American, George A. Diepert. Ac cording to his investigation, General Pershing said. Diepert was deliberately fired upon by Mexican snipers as he passed along the border on a moving train. Shooting across the border would not be tolerated, he told the consul. A heavy guard of American troops is on duty on the border. General Villa, whose whereabouts during the last few days has heen a mystery, last night was reported from Rancheria. seventy miles south of Juarez, approaching the border. NECESSITY MUST BE SHOWN STATE Public Service Commission Lays Down Rule in Refus j ing a Charter Rehearing OFFICIALS WILL MEET Pennsylvania State Society Will Be Perfected News Notes of the Capitol | The Public Serv \. \\ 9 //J ice Commission in n\\\ a-V/y an opinion written V\N\\ tcK by Commissioner Samuel W. Penny packer refuses to grant a rehearing: WjqBSQSk or > the application I of ,he Sou, h keb : OSE nnon Electric I S<v * tsfc3ls=sl2ifc Company for ap i "" proval of its In- MitimmaSimmmdim corporation on the ground that there is no public neces sity for the service the company of fers to give. The opinion establishes a precedent. The company asked the right to operate in a district where the evidence showed there were al ready two companies and nothing to establish that the service they gave | was inadequate or that any demands : had been made for service which they had not granted. It was also shown that the proposed company intended to obtain current from a traction company and to furnish current only! In portions of the township which did not have electric service. "If the commission could limit the territory as designated it would be in effect to relieve the corporation from certain of the duties imposed upon it. The grant In a charter is accompanied by certain burdens which have to be met," says the opinion. To File Briefs. The Public Ser vice Commission has asked counsel for complainants and railroads in volved in the charges that the full crew law Is being violated to file briefs. The commission now has eleven allegations of violations before it. eight railroads being respondents. The companies claim that the com plaints are based upon matters which are open to Question under the full crew act of 1913. Two More lilnc-Vp. Notice has been received at the State Capitol that Bedford and Monroe counties have decided to appoint sealers of weights and measures and to bring articles used In markets and In business un der the genera*l State Inspection laws. Juniata county commissioners have the same nfatter under consideration and there are less than ti\'e counties in the whole State whose weights ana measures are not supervised. James Sweeney, State chief of standards, who has had charge of the bureau since it was created, has been in com munication with the counties which do not have sealers and expects that the end of the coming year will see all districts protected. People Must Ileip. State Dairy and Food Commissioner James Foust in his bulletin on the activities of his branch of the State Department of Agriculture calls upon the public to help the State enforce the food laws. "It Is recognized that unless the con sumer is interested in his own protec tion the police agencies of the State cannot secure him entire freedom from injury." says the commissioner. To Push Appeal*. lt is likely tliat steps will be taken early in January to present to the Dauphin county court appeals from decisions of the Pviblic Service Commission which were made prior to the act of 1915 providing that such appeals shall be taken to the superior court. There are half a dozen such cases, some of them of wide importance. The other cases will go to the superior court automatically. Fifty-six Exempted.

ADD MILLION MEN T OBRITISH ARMY [Continued From First Page.] While the Greek elections have given a large majority to former Pre mier Gounaris, a powerful member of the present cabinet who Is not over friendly to the entente powers, it is not believed here the change will have much of an effect on the attitude of Greece, which is now much more agi tated by the possibility that Bulgar ians will cross the frontier than by the formation of a now government. (Germans Suffer Heavily Along the western line, according to British official reports the Germans suffered heavy losses while exposing their forces in an attempt to occupy craters which their mines had opened along the front near Armentieres. French operations at most places arc hampered greatly by bad weather, but a considerable portion of the German works on Hartman Weilerkopf has been carried. The Russians are reported to have occupied Kum which indicates they are making an important advance into the interior of Persia. Although the question of conscrip tion llgured largely in the army de bate last night in the House of Com mons it was only an incidental part of the discussion. The country awaits with keen interest the debate which is certain to follow presentation to the House of the Earl of Derby's figures on the attestation plan. Withdraw More Troops From German sources come state ments that nearly all the British troops have been withdrawn from the Aegean island of Imbros, Eemnos and Tenedos, their destination being Sa lonika British bases for operations in the Dardanelles have been maintained on these Aegean Islands. Reports of the troop withdrawal are in line with the impression that the abandonment of important sections of the Galllpoll peninsula front marked the virtual end of the Dardanelles campaign, even though a footing on the peninsula has been retained by the allies. Capture 1200 Germans After the French had made an im portant gain in the Vosges region, capturing the summit of Hartman's Weilerkopf, the Germans vigorously counterattacked, and according to the Berlin dispatches, regained a portion of the lost position. Some 1200 Ger mans were made prisoner in the French drive, Paris claims. Bad weather Is interfering with operations on most of the western front and official statements indicate little activity in the eastern war theater. Neither are important developments reported from the Balkans. A roundabout report from Malta ts to the effect that an Austrian sub marine has been captured by two tor pedo boats, presumably Italian. The Japanese steamer Sada Maru Is reported to have been sunk in the eastern Mediterranean by a German or an Austrian submarine.

RECOVERY FROM GRIP The form of Influenza popularly called grip lasts but a short time, is seldom fatal, but causes suffering and misery out of all proportion to its importance. The reason is this: When the acute stage of the grip is passed there often remains a neurasthenia that persists for months if not properly corrected. The patient Is moody. In poor spirits, suffers lack of appetite and vigor and feels indisposed to work or even to en joy life. Warmth and quiet alone give comfort and these not for long at a time. Sleep Is restless and does not refresh the nerves, which are always at high tension. The best way to correct this after effect of the grip is to ,build up the blood, and there is no better blood builder than Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. As soon as the revitalized blood courses through the system you are aware of its soothing influence. Grad ually the color returns to the pale cheeks, appetite and digestion Im prove and you are on the road to health.

HERE'S A CHEW THAT JSJI CHEW "American Navy" is Rich in Quality and Fruity in Flavnr TASTIEST TOBACCO MADE Do you chew tobacco? If you don't you're missing a lot of wholesome en joyment and healthful satisfaction. If you do, what form of tobacco do you use? A plug is the only chew that per fectly retains all the natural juices of the leaf. American Navy is a high-grade "scrap" chew in plug form. It's made of the same type of leaf as "scrap," but the leaves used are whole instead of "cuttings." And being pressed close, the sweet, mellow, fruity flavor of the leaf runs evenly through every last juicy chew of the American Navy plug. American Navy represents the high est form of plug tobacco production— the very best chew that can be made from rich, ripe tobacco leaf—the last word in tobacco satisfaction. American Navy is so carefully and painstakingly made that not one drop of the leaf's rich, natural juice escapes from the plug. American Navy is the money's worth chew—and more! In Sc and 10c cuts.
