HERSHEY, Manager Bell 3688J Owner COAL INDUSTRY HAS BIG REVIVAL Chief Roderick Makes Some lateresting Statements Re garding the Trade Pennsylvania's total production of coal in 1915 is given as 246,797.774 net tons by James E. Roderick, State chief of mines, in his summary of the coal industry issued to-day. The anthracite production was less, but the bituminous and coke productions were greater than in the year before. The official figures show the fol lowing tonnages: Anthracite. 1915. 89,377,706; 1914, 91.189.641 Bituminuous. 1915, 157,4 20.068: 1914. 145.854.530. Coke. 1915, 22,012,949; 1914. 17.- 164.124. In his summary Chief Roderick says: "The year opened with most tin favorable conditions, but towards the middle of the summer the bituminous trade began to feel the effect of the foreign orders for war munitions that called Into activity nearly all available plants in the eastern part of the country. Any concern that was able to manufacture powder, shells, guns or other supplies needed by the for eign countries, was placed in opera tion and work was pushed with fever ish activity. The demand for bitu minuous coal to supply the needs of Ihe plants engaged in this newly de veloped trade became so urgent that part of the output was diverted from its usual channels, so urgent that part of the output was diverted from its usual channels, and as a result, the anthracite trade was benefited by the d.emand that arose for the smaller sizes of coal. As the year progressed, the industry became still more active and the year terminated with both regions producing very heavily and with prices at abnormal figures.

They are at least hoped for most ardently by most of the bituminous operators Who feel that an advance of from five to twenty-five cents a ton Is absolute ly necessary to keep them from loss. The two principal arguments for a higher price are. that all other articles consumed or used in any way by the public have advanced in price, and the further reason that the profits on bituminous coal have hitherto been i entirely too small. The existence of some of the operators, when the sell ing pttce is so very little greater than 1 the cost of production, is very pre carious. and it is the general opinion | that a higher price must be received I for the production of some of the less firmly entrenched and less favorably situated operators will be compelled to relinquish the business. Another 1 element that enters into this question, is the steady advance in the cost of production, due to the deeper mines, the longer hauls and the higher cost ol' labor, all elements that affect mate rially the total cost of producing coal. "The introduction and enforcement of the Compensation Act of 1915 will' no doubt place an additional burden on the coal operators. The reporting of accidents to the State authorities with the utmost dispatch after their occurrence will in some instances be somewhat difficult and expensive, and the fact that the insurance rates are to be based on the risks of the indi- i vidual mines, instead of being made equal throughout the State, will make necessary the installation of expensive safety devices by most of the smaller operators to bring their mines up to the standard maintaied by the larger operators, t Labor troubles of the year were of a minor character and confidence is txpremd for a continuance of jteace ful operation, although the renewal of the wage scale in both regions April 1 may prove an occasion for disturbance. The bituminous miners are having a prosperous period at present and they are generally anxious to continue without a break~in their earning power. In the anthracite re gion conditions are more uncertain ! and more apprehension exists as to ' the future." HARRISBURG IS HANDED FLOWERS [Continued From first Page] provement program of Pennsylvania's Capital City. The Nsw York man was here as the guest of the Engineers' Society ofj Pennsylvania. The audience could i have easily been larger. Flowers For City While Mr, Llr. L&throp. "1 shall pay Harrisburg the compli ment of speaking not in a narrow ; local sense of city improvements." said Mr. Lathrop, "for that would be carrying coals to New Castle. "1 shall regard this city," added the I sveaker significantly, "as not only the exemplar, but also the technical schoolmaster of city planning pro cedure. This is the seat of govern ment and government must take ac count of city planning. "After having made an intensive j study of more than 10 cities. I 'see two insistent needs in the State ■of Pennsylvania: "First, a program of change in the i laws and thp method of local applica- I tion. Traffic Needs "Second, a basic study of our cities as vast transportation devices. "In common with other American cities we need, excess condemnation, area assessments for street and other improvements, and declaration of proper plans for the widening of arterial highways which are now too narrow." Mr. Lathrop discussed at length the move that has been i.n these direc tions in other States and In foreign cities. "It is the practice in this State, under the statute, either to assess cost l of street improvements against the (S*en. Marlranft fhe cigar for esiery smoker who expect*/ full nickle vjalue. /%j-/ ever/- w/>ere. HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH general funds of the city, or to assess them against abutting property. On the principle of special assessments for special benefits, many street and other Improvements should be assess ed against property not contiguous. For The Property Owners "Obviously," continued Mr. Lath rop, "these residents desire a material benefit to their properties, yet, under the law, they will bear none of the ex pense. The abutting property owners will bear all or most of the cost, Should not these residents pay a special assessment for this special benefit?" Director l-athrop touched interest ingly on the wide street question. "The city," said he, "is a transporta tion device and the priciples of trans portation should govern the lay-out. Tt is a popular fallacy that all streets should be wide. We might as well say that all shoes should be large. The shoe should fit the foot, the streets should fit the use. In the quiet resi dential districts the street should be narrow, but the houses should be set far back thus giving light and air and lawns for the children. At the same time this would involve less ex penditure for construction and main tenance of pavements. Wide and Narrow Streets "But." added Mr. impres sively. "arterial highways should be capacious, removing all obstacles in order to permit the flow of traffic economically." "The street problem, together with the general transportation problem is the biggest issue before the American people," continued the speaker im pressively. "Properly handled it is the proper sort of preparedness for peace or war. In case of war eighty per cent of our activities would be industry, commerce and transporta tion. And our transportation problem is to-day a problem of terminals. Obviously congestion and delay are caused not by a lack of equipment hut by failure to move the equipment. This delay is caused by congested ter minals. Marysvillo and Knola "There must be a separation of through traffic from local traffic. Wherever it is possible, through traffic must be carried around our cities. This principle is recognized by classi fication yards at Enola and Marys ville and by the New York Central Railroad near Syracuse. The Penn sylvania applies this principle to through traffic between Washington and New York. The question of transportation applied within and without the city is the biggest prob lem of city planning. Mr. I,athrop, in conclusion boosted the city's general improvement pro gram including the scheme for the construction of a subway at State street, its parks and playground work. "We recognize them all as social, in dustrial and cultural necessities," i said he. } Ue Social fhates Story No. 3 THE PARASITE Pl*t by G*ora« Bronson Howard. Nov*l nation by Hugh C. Wsir.

With that In mind she had warned Mary that slie might not re turn. and had madt arrangements for keeping In touch with her chum. Sha was well content. She waa by no meani insensible to the rlak ahe waa running, to the falae position In which ahe had deliberately placed herielr But she was confident, too, of her ability to cope with Reynolda. Sha knew, from the way he looked at her. that she had a power over him, and she meant to use It to the fullest poa alble extent. That night. Indeed, after ahe had once gone to her own room and as sured herself that she could lock her /•elf in. she deliberately ventured Into the lion's den, metaphorically speak ing. She went down to the office, which Reynolds also used as a library. He was sitting there, alone—the serv ants had all retired. At the sight of her he started up. plainly pleased, but Mona drew back in confusion. •'I—I took the liberty of coming down to borrow a. book," she eaid. "I like to read myself to sleep." "Help yourself, my dear," he said. "Tou —- he chuckled, meaningly, and leered at her—"you're welcome to mora than a book from me!" She went to the shelves, and, after •he had selected a novel, made for the door. "Sit down," he said. "Sit down and talk to me a little. You're bonny com pany for an old fellow like me. But ■—l'm not too old, am I?" "Oh. no," she said. "X mustn't stay. Remember I'm only your housekeeper, Mr. Reynolds." He cackled at that, and she started as she saV him go to his safe and open It But, though she tried, she couldn't make out the combination—he WM ahrewd enough to prevent that. When he turred back he held out a necklace to her, a sting of sparkling brilliants. "Look at the pretties!" he said. Mona took the necklace and looked at it admiringly. "It's beautiful." she said. "I envy you that. I believe!" "Ha-ha!" he chuckled. "Try It on, my dear! Who knows? If you and I get along you might wear It for your own!" Mona pretended not to understand, and returned it to him. "Now I must go to bed." she said. "Good night, Mr. Reynolds!" "So soon," he said, wistfully. Tvt got mors Jewels to show you." "More?" she said. "I should think you'd be afraid of thieves!" "I'm guarded against them," he aald, shrewdly. "Look—l'll show you!" And In the next few momenta, thanks to his vanity. Mona was able to make a mental chart of the whole burglar alarm system that protected the place. She had hoped for this, rather than expected It. And then she went to her room. But In a few min utes there came a tapping at her door. "It's me!" said her employer's cracked voice. "la everything all right?" "Quite, thanka." said Mona. with an affectation of sleepiness In her voice. He turned sway at that and went to his own room, disappointment plainly written on hie face. Mona slept little. But ahe was up, bright and fresh, in the morning. Sha was n"t afraid of Reynolds by day. As she suspected, he had plenty ~tr keep him occupied, so that while hi might think of her, he would not have the time to puraue her with his horri ble aftentlons. His "clients," peopla of all sorts and cotinUiwns. since all ap peared to be grist that came to his evil mill, began to arrive aoon after break fast, and came all day long. In a steady stream. It was easy to understand that his business was a profitable one. Mona meanwhile, had affairs of her own that demanded her attention. The first was a meeting with Mary—previ ously arranged for, and held at a near by roadhouse. "Everything looks fine, ray dear,"* amid Mona. "But you've got to ftnd a real burglar for me—some one who can crack a safe! I can't do that— and it's the ssfe that contains what we're after. Do you think you can?" "I can try," said Mary. "I know aome awfully disreputable people, yoa know." "Well. It's vital to mv plan to hav* a dependable safe cracker. I'll leav* that to you. As usual, the really hard work is for you to do." Mary did, as she had told Mona, know a lot of more or less shady peo ple. And on the night of her talk with Mona she went to a place she had not visited for a long time—a place that had threatened, once, to entrap her, and dray her down. It wai a luxur« lous resort of those who smoke opium —a place where the drug Is surrounded with all the glamour and false ro mance that constitutes its chief appeal to many who are forming Its acquaint ance for the first time. This place was not in Chinatown, but In the heart of one of the best districts of the city. The house was luxuriously appointed and furnished. There was a great room where. If they so desired, the patrons might take their ease on soft couches. If they preferred, however, small rtVims wer« at their disposal, where they might have privacy. Many customers cam* to this resort because they knew that they need be seen by none of their f*l> low smokers. IT* B* C*atlnued Tomorrow.) PHILADELPHIA PIIonUCE By Associated Press i Philadelphia.

One of the original Progressives, Representative Cooper, of Wisconsin, presided during the greater part of the ceremonies. Speaker Clark, in a humorous and friendly speech, termed Mr. Cannon one of the "top-notcher class of mental pugilists." He also wrote into the record lor posterity the statement that during debate with iiis own eyes he saw Mr. Cannon perform the unusual feat of describing a com plete circle on one heel. Straight and Ruddy-Checked Still carrying himself as straight as an Indian and as ruddy-cheeked as » t schoolgirl, Mr. Cannon marched down I the center aisle of the House and de livered an address of appreciation filled with reminiscences of other days. It brought back the shadows of Blain, Randall, Ben Butler, George F. Hoar, "Sunset" Cox, "Pig Iron" Kelly and a score of other contemporaries of Mr. Cannon to the halls where once they served. Mr. Cannon was quick to | observe the nonpartisan character of ! the occasion and his opening words I were in appreciation of it. "This is a sample of tlie partisan ship of the House," he said. "I tan say with the psalmist, 'The lines have I fallen unto nie in pleasant places,' and | as 1 look into the faces of friends on | both sides of the house 1 am more in clined to accept the plain evidence of fact than the popular and picturesque fiction which divides this body into i partisan groups on all questions, shuts out personal relations and the co operation of representatives regardless | of party to work out in legislation tha greatest good to the greatest number." Representative Rodenberg, of Illi nois, referred to the courage of Mr. Cannon in the stormy days when he was Speaker. "It is but human lo err," he said, "and 'Uncle Joe' has at al' times been intensely human; but no man, living or dead, ever saw hint lower his colors or hoist the white tlai? of surrender."
