PROVISIONALLY ACCEPT NOTE [Continued From First Patio.] shall be immune l'rom attack under previous assurances. Secretary L<ansing explained fully to the ambassador the position of the United States in the light of the new developments and is understood to have told him that while Germany's position is recognized as well founded, the. United States must insist that Ger many conform all her practices to in ternational law, inasmuch as the en tente allies have declined to make any changes. X'cw \'otc Asked The Lusltania agreement will, be kept by Secretary Lansing and later will be published, with the assurances which the United States hopes to re ceive from Germany covering the points brought up by the new sub marine campaign. The new assurances, if they are given, would be embodied in a sepa rate note. Meanwhile, it was said, the United States would make efforts to have the entente allies agree not to put guns of any kind on passenger carrying liners and in turn would ex pect assurances from Germany for their safety. It was understood the principal ob jection of the United States to accept j ing the Lusltania agreement as gov erning the future was that it merely referred to the assurances previously given that unresisting liners would not be sunk without warning, but it did not actually embody or reiterate them. Ambassador von Bernstorff when he returned to his embassy sent a long dispatch to his government setting forth fully the position of the United States as Secretary Lansing had out lined it to him. KOTUR TO GIVE LIE TO STAR WITNESS ? [Continued From First Page.] other chance. First Degree For Kotur "So confident are we of Kotur's in nocence," said the former recorder to-day, "that we intend to carry the appeal to the Supreme court if neces sary." Kotur was convicted of murder in | the first degree after an hour's delib eration by the jury last evening Should Kotur's efforts to obtain an other trial prove fruitless he will be the first murderer from Dauphin county to be executed in the elec tric criatr. Kotur, who up until the rendering of the jury's verdict had retained a stolid indifferent attitude, flushed an grily at the jury's announcement. To the astonishment of the courtroom which had been under the Impression that he could neither talk nor under stand English, the Bosnian sneered at the jurors: The Jurors' Thanks "T'ank. you—t'ank-a-you, so mooch!" he cried as he was led from the courtroom. Novokovic's testimony, which will be attacked by the defense in its ap peal for a new trial, was to the effect that he had seen Kotur strike Backlc to the floor of 725 South Third street ; and then grind his heel upon Backlc's upturned, helpless face. The last thing he saw, as he climbed to bed that night Novokovic declared, was the prone Backlc with the fur ious Kotur standing over him with a knife, Zeppelin Reported Lost; Many Killed and Much Damage in Fierce Gales London. Feb. 17. —A Rotterdam dis patch to the Daily Mall says that dur ing yesterday's stoijin a Zeppelin was blown adrift, apparently from Bel gium, and wrecked at Blerik, near Venlo, where it was seized and in terned by the authorities. Reports from the provinces show that the storm swept over the whole of England and Wales. Shipping on the Thames was damaged considerably. Some vessels ran aground and others were in collision. MANY SHIPWRECKS Paris, Feb. 1 7.—A gale swept France yesterday and caused serious damage in Paris and in the provinces. A num ber of shipwrecks have been reported from the maritime districts and the Channel services have been delayed and at some ports entirely interrupted. Reports from the front describe the weather for the last forty-eight hours as the worst experienced since the war began. The gale was particularly severe in the Belgian district, where roofs were blown off the houses, trees uprooted and many persons injured and where a large section of territory was flooded. SITUATION CRITICAL Amsterdam, Holland, Feb. 17, via London.—The northwesterly storm is still blowing with undiminished vio lence and the situation is described as critical. Reports from various places of the damage which has been done are causing grave apprehension. Monnikedam has suffered consid erably. At Volendam twenty houses have been abandoned. The railway embankment between Purmerend and Oostzaal. in the same province, h&s been destroyed, threatening a fresh catastrophe. The breaking of the dykes around Westlinder lakes at Aalsmeer, eight miles southwest of Amsterdam, appears to be inevitable. YOUTHFUL FORGER HELD Ray Stephens, aged 17. 303 South Seventeenth street, charged with forg ing his sister's name on four checks which were cashed at. the East End Bank, was held under SI,OOO bail by Alderman George V. Bolton, of the Twelfth ward, after a hearing last night. He was committed to jail in default of ball. YOU'REBILIOUS! CLEAN LIVER AND BOWELS JONIGHT Don't stay headachy, sick, or have bad breath and sour stomach. Wake up feeling fine! Best lax ative for men, women and children. Enjoy life! Remove the liver and bowel poison which is keeping your head dizzy, your tongue coated, breath offensive, and stomach sour. Don't stay bilious, sick, headachy, constipat ed and full of cold. Why don't you get a box of Carcarets from the drug store and eat one or two to-night and en- Joy the nicest, gentlest liver and bowel cleansing you ever experienced. You will wake up feeling fit and fine. Cas carets never gripe or sicken like salts, pills and calomel. They act so gently that you hardly realize you have taken a cathartic. Mothers should give cross, sick, bilious or feverish children a whole Cascaret any time—they act thoroughly and are harmless. —Ad- vsrtlsemcnt. j FEBRUARY 10, 1916.

WILL START SOON TO PUT ALL WIRES IN PIPES Moans Removal of Nearly 500 Telegraph and Tele phone Poles In line with its policy to keep pace with improvements in Harrisburg, ] the Pennsylvania Railroad Company, i to-day authorized an expenditure of | $75,000, to place telegraph and tele phone wires underground. This will ' mean the removal of between 300 and 1 500 poles located between the Penn- | sylvania passenger station and Di vision street. Along with this improvement will come the consolidation of the gen eral telephone exchange at the Penn sylvania station with the Reity street branch, and increased telephone facilities. Work on placing the wires underground will start as soon as the weather permits. Poles to be removed carry from 20 to 40 wires. They are on the south side of the railroad between Market and State streets; on Poplar street be tween State and North streets; on Seventh street between North and Maclay streets, and along the rail road between Maclay street to Di vision street. Blueprints are now being made for the placing of con duits and cables.

Use Cocoanut Oil For Washing Hair If you want to keep your hair in good condition be careful what you wash it with. Most soaps and prepared shampoos | contain too much alkali. This dries the scalp, makes the hair brittle, and 5s very harmful. Just plain mulsifled cocoanut oil (which is pure and en tirely greaseless> is much better than the most expensive soap or anything else you can use. for shampooing, as this can't possibly injure the hair. Simply moisten your hair with water and rub it in. One or two teaspoon fuls will make an abundance of rich, creamy lather, and cleanses the hair and scalp thoroughly. The lather rinses out easily, and removes every particle of dust, dirt, dandruff and excessive oil. The hair dries quickly and evenly ! and it leaves it tine and silky, bright, fluffy and easy to manage. You can get mulsified cocoanut oil at most any drug store. It is very cheap, and a few ounces is enough to last everyone in the family for months.
