SIX TRAWLERS SUNK Berlin, July 22 (by wireless). —Six British trawlers were sunk by German submarines off the English east coast on July 17, savs a German admiralty statement to-day. ' n SATURDAY EVENING, RELIC HUNTERS DESERT CANOES Lack of Camp Sites Necessi tates Radical Change in In dian Seekers' Plan Lack of suitable camping sites necessitated a change tn the plans of Dr. William K. Moorehead, of And over, Mass., and his party of arch aeologists who are seeking Indian history and relics aiong the Susque hanna river. This announcement was made to-day by Dr. George P. Donehoo, secretary of the Pennsyl vania Historical Commission, and his torian with the exposition. The large boats built for the expe dition have been sent back to Coopers town, N. Y., and the trip between Harrisburg and Chesapeake Bay will be made from town to town along the river. Dr. Moorehead and party will remain in Harrisburg until next week. It is probable they will return to Harrisburg at intervals. Duncan's island was visited yesterday and val uable relics and data were found. This morning the archaeologists at tended a meeting of the Pennsylvania Historical Commission. Secretary Donehoo made a partial report of the Susquehanna expedition and announc ed that he would give a complete re port later. The commission decided to make an additional appropriation for the Colonel William Crawford monument at Connellsvilie. Further plans for placing a tablet at Fort Hunter, near Harrisburg were considered. A tablet will also be placed at Coudersport, in honor of David Zeisaerger. The sec retary was auchorized to purchase some valuable collections of Indian relics for the State museum. After the business session the commissioners re ceived Dr. Moorehead and A. B. Skin ner of the Susquehanna expedition party. NATIONAL AID TO BE SECURED SOON [Continued From First Page] al Aid Good Roads bill is the con struction of rural roads and this is construed in the act to mean anv pub lic road over which the United States mails are or may hereafter be trans ported. The Act excludes every street and road in a place having a popula tion of 2,500 or more except that portion of any- street or road long which the houses average more than feet apart may be considered. For the fiscal year ending June 30, 1917, the Federal bill appropriates $5,000,000 for use throughout the Un ion; for the year 1918 $10,000,000 will be expended; for the year 1919, $15,- 000,000; 1920. $20,000,000,000 and for 1921. $25,000,000. This totals $75.- 000,000 of the $55,000 000 appropriat ed, the other $10,000,000 being speci fically reserved for the annual devel opment of roads in National forest reservations. Pennsylvania's share in the Federal distribution for the five years is $3,- 508,750, this State being third in the list of those receiving the moneys. Texas receives the greatest amount with New York coming next in line, followed by Pennsylvania, Illinois, Ohio, Missouri, California, lowa, Michigan and Kansas in order. While Commissioner Black and Chief Engineer Uhler have, as yet, made no definite selection of the roads to be recommended to the Federal gov ernment for improvement, it is known that the road 3 on existing State high way routes will receive first consid eration from the department. Wherc ever it is possible to secure federal aid in the improvement of a Pennsylvania highway, important State highway routes forming a position of the main arterial lines of the Pennsylvania highway system will in all probability be selected first. Under the provisions of the Federal Act the State Highway Department furnishes to the secretary of agricul ture statements setting forth the pro- ( posed construction of any rural post-! road on which it desires Federal aid. After the secretary of agriculture ap proves the project, the State Highway | Department then furnishes surveys, ! plans, specifications and estimates for! the road. On of the sec- [ retary of agriculture, he notifies the i State Highway Department and certi fies the fact to the secretary of the treasury of the United States, where upon the secretary of the treasury sets aside the share which the United I States is to pay for the proposed im proveinent which in no case is to ex- | ceed fifty per cent, of the total cost of the improvement. The State Highway Department then proceeds with the construction of the highway under its own supervis ion in accordance with the plans and specifications approved by the secre tary of agriculture and when the aforesaid road is completed, the sec retary of agriculture shall cause to he paid to the State the amount set aside for the project. There is a provision in the Federal [ bill which makes possible the adop-! tion of the same system of payments which the late State Hishway Com- j missioner Cunningham instituted in j Pennsylvania, namely, that the gov- 1 ernment's share of the Feaeral aid con struction can be paid on monthly es- 1 timates furnished by the State, thusi relieving the State from the necessity i of financing the entire operation until j completion. In Pennsylvania it was found that the State Highway Depart- 1 ment was financing on all State-aid | operations until after their comple tion at which time the applying coun ties, townships and boroughs contrib- j uted their payment to reimburse the! State. After consulting with the At- 1 torney general's department, the late I Commissioner Cunningham put a rul-' ing into effect compelling these apply- ' ing parties to pay their share pro; rata based on the monthly estimates s furnished them and in this way the; I State Highway Department was re-, i Ueved from the necessity of financing ; t lie entire operation until completion. 1 ; There is a proviso in the Federal bill which covers this point exactly and the United States is authorized to pay i its share to the States on estimates • from time to time. The Federal bill becomes effective at once, but the opening section states i "that no money apportioned under thlsj Act to any State shall he expended therein unttl its legislature shall have arsentod to the provisions of this Act. except that, until the final adjourn ment of the first regular session of the Legislature held after the passage of this act, the assent of the governor shall be sufficient." Just as soon as word is received from the secretary of agriculture, the State Highway Department of Penn sylvania will make announcement of the roads to be recommended to the Federal government for federal aid and it is expected that at least all the preliminary work thereon may be fin ished before the close of the present working season. MISS FISHER'S FUNERAL. Funeral services will be held at 2 o'clock, Monday afternoon for Miss Elizabeth Fisher, at her home, 410 Strawberry street. Burial will be made in the East Harrisburg cemetery. Miss Fisher died Thursday evening at the Harrisburg hospital. ( MARKETS METALS FEATURE OF TRANSACTIONS U. S. Steel Rises to 86 1-2; Beth lehem Drops Ten Points; Tobacco Gains By Associated Press New York, July 22. Short covering accounted largely for the activity ot to-day's operations, although trading was again wnoliy professional and lim ited to speculttive favorites. United States Steel was the foremost feature, rising to 86%. its best price ot the week on transactions embracing nu merous 1.000 to 2,000 share lots. Auto mobile stocks were prominent at aa vances of three to ten points, the lat ter for General Motors, and Munitions weie moderately oetter with substan tial gains in minor steel and metal is sues. Bethlehem Steel lost ten points. Tobaccos showed additional advances with some inquiry for Beet ?tigar ana similar issues.

Since 10 al. m. yesterday the plague killed 39 children in the five boroughs of Xew York city. There were 13 5 new cases. Impose Regulations of Increasing Severity By Associated Press • Xew York. July 22. Quarantine regulations of increasing severity due to tear of the. spread of infantile paralysis were reported to-day from a number of cities and towns near New York. At Mountain View, X. J., about 100 summer colonists from Xew York city, with a few from Xewark, have been ordered to leave their bungalows along the Passaic river and return homa All houses where children from Xew York have visited were put under a month's quarantine. The Erie railroad which serves thousands of commuters, has sent out a bulletin to fill its station agents warning them to notify prospective passengers that children will he barred from most of the stations. A total of 239 cases of infantile paralysis was re ported from Xew Jersey. The cases in Connecticut number 59. Xew York state outside cf New York city has 195. STRIKE SETTLEMENT HOPES ARE BLASTED [Continue*! From First Pafio] was resumed to Middletown and Pax tang by the cars and no serious dis orders occurred. Xo other suburban points were reached. In the city cars were operated and no disturbances were reported. The police and sheriff's deputies were sta tioned at places where the trouble started earlier in the week, but re 'ported no trouble. The cars will be kept on the lines as long as possible according to Felix M. Davis, superintendent of transporta tion. They are being operated by al leged strike-breakers. Arrest Five Hooters Five men were arrested during the morning by County Detective James Walters because they hooted and leered some of the crews on the cars passing in Market street. The strik ers. who had pickets at all street inter sections, made every effort to maintain order. Company officials stated to-day that should the men not return to work be fore Wednesday, no further plans have been made. Both the company officials and the union men said to-day that they expect an early settlement of the strike, but are hinging the situation on union recognition. To Get I'nion Money The first strike pay, union men stated to-day, will be made next week, as the Amalgamated Association of Street and Electric Railways Employes does not pay out any money the first week that members are on a strike. Strikers stated that outside contri butions have been received, together with assurances of aid from other or ganizations. The regular meeting of the strikers was held this afternoon at 2 o'clock at headquarters, 26 Xortli Third street, but nothing of importance occurred. The men were urged to be loyal and plans were started for another parade to be held next week. Demand Quelling of Disorder The most important development in the strike situation to-day from the standpoint of the public was the wide spread demand all over the city for energetic action on the part of the authorities in quelling the outbreaks of disorder along the street railway lines. It is intimated that Mayor Meals is not in physical condition to handle the situation and as a result many of the patrolmen are showing utter indifference to the general wel fare of the community. This is not true of all the officers and those who are honestly endeavoring to maintain order feel that they are handicapped by the attitude of other members of the force who have failed to appre ciate the seriousness of open disorder on the part of the unruly element of the city. District Attorney Stroup's declara tion that those brought before him for violations of law will be prose cuted to the fullest extent of the law has had a tendency to call attention to the apparent Indifference of some of the policemen. It is pointed out that the breaking up of noisy assemblages along the main streets and in those quarters where most of the trouble has occurred would go far toward pre venting the outbreaks. Strikers Greatly Concerned All the strike officials and the strik ers themselves are concerned over the situation. They see that public reac tion is bound to follow a continuance of disorder and that instead of their cause being benefited, it is likely to be injured. So far as the public is con cerned it doesn't seem to be a ques tion of favoring one side or the other: it is more a demand for restoration of order and the enforcement of law against those who have seized the op portunity to do about as they please. Jitneys Law Unto Themselves Complaints were commencing to be made to-day of the inadequacy of the jitney service which has been brought into being by the interruption of trol ley service and charges were heard that operators of unlicensed cars were acting as a law unto themselves. The police department, which encouraged the unlicensed jitney as a means of affording transportation in the present emergency is now being accused of falling to protect the public from overcharges, ignoring dangerous overcrowding and neglecting to re quire that men offering their cars for hire give proper service. The licens ed jitney drivers, who have paid money to the city and given bond, as provided in the jitney ordinance, are yourTOOTHBRUSH Kround TeuclierM and Several Picnics Have to Be Postponed Weekly conference of the girl in structors of the city playgrounds and Supervisor J.

Doubts concern- I ing the fato of the British battleship, | Warspite, which may have been causeo by German assertions that she was sunk in the Jutland battle, were dispell ed when a representative of the Asso ciated Press and other neutral corres pondents visited, this week, a British ; port where the squadron of Vice Ad miral Sir David Beatty was viwede. The i entire squadron, with light cruisers ana i destroyers, was aligned ready for work, ! and no scars were visible. | ' Try Telegraph Want Ads FRONT-MARKET HAS VARIETY Specialties For Motorists of Every Kind Makes Inter esting Study Life or mechanical action of som. kind always attracts more attention than objects that are inactive. Upon this theory T. B. Wildermuth of the Front-Market Motor Supply Company has arranged an attractive window display with Lubriko grease with the transmission of motor car working submerged in grease. Lubriko grease is among the many motor car special ties distributed by this local company. Others include the Atwater Kent ig niting system, which has displaced the magneto on thirty representative Am erican cars. The claims for the At water-Kent system is that it is a scientific ignition system which pro duces a single hot spark, uniformly hot and exactly alike in each cylinder, no matter whether the motor is being cranked slowly or running at forty- I five miles an hour. A Dann Insert consists of a perfor ated anti-friction and nonshock-con ducting metal, packed with a special graphite lubricant and inserted be-, tween each spring lear. It prevents rust and the consequent squawk, and practically eliminates vibration. The Goodyear is distributed by the Front-Market Motor Supply Company. This tire is among the best known of the leading makes, and has found ready sale in this territory. The klaxon coansnrd etaoin ufirew aterict doGo horns and klaxet needs no introduc tion. It introduces itself on every highway of the country with its dis tinctive note. This is another of the standard specialties found in the variety of articles displayed in this large accessory house. Being the olficial Bosch supply sta tion for this territory, a full line of Bosch products and share parts are carried in stock. Factory testing ap paratus, manned by factory trained i expert mechanics and provided with factory facilities for the prompt execution of any adjustment or repair is a feature of the establishment. Leak-Proof Piston Rings is another simple little device that fits tight as a drum yet elastic as rubber. It consists of two concentric unit members ol equal size, strength and value fitting one around the other to form a com plete concentric ring, thus saving power, fuel and oil by preventing j leaks. The Hess-Beight Ball Bearings | are pioneers among the leaders of ball j bearing devices and great friction ; savers and come in all the standard I sizes and many special wishes may be 1 had. This feature has contributed to ; the easy running qualities of motor , cars. Gabriel Snubbers Is a device I intended to keep you on the seat when (the roads are rough. As tne car springs compress, the spring within { the coll expands and takes up the slack in the belting, then, as the re | bound commences, the colls'of belting • begin to tighten and create friction on i the band of brass between them, thus forming a resistance that in action steadies and controls the car springs, and causes them to regain their nor mal position gradually without jolts or abrupt stop. Vacuum Mobiloils are among the well known lubricants that are feat ured by this concern and Hartford I Shock Absorbers, A-C Plugs, John son's Cleaner and wax, Carter Car | buretors. Raybestos Brake Lining, Red Seal Batteries and White Star Extra Quality Motor Oil are among the many other standard specialties dis tributed or retailed by this accessory [ house.
