Baldwin Works Receive
Big Munitions Order
Special to the Telegraph
Philadelphia, Pa., Aug. 2. Offi
cials of the Baldwin Locomotive
Works yesterday confirmed the re
port that this company had closed an
other munitions order for the allies
amounting to approximately 400,000
shells, at an aggregate cost of about
$15,000,000.
It is believed that a large part of
the order will be made at the Eddy
stone plant of the company, and it is
known that the local plant now has
its hands full with a previous order.
Based on unofficial figures, this con
tract swells the total amount of war
business closed by the Baldwins to
something more than $200,000,000.
The company's last year's contracts
received partial conrmation as run
ning about $150,000,000, while since
that time locomotive and shell orders
have brought the total up to the $200,-
000,000 mark.
CHILDREN WE WORRY ABOUT
Close confinement in school during
the past winter, overstudy perhaps, an
attack of the grip or tonsilitis, some
one of these things is doubtless respon
sible for the condition of tlie child who
shows a decline in health now.
What are the symptoms? Pallor and
languor, a fickle appetite, dark rings
under tlie eyes, bronchial colds. Very
often the best efforts of the family
physician fail in such cases and tho
condition of the child causes the most
intense anxiety. Cod-liver oil,sooften
prescribed, generally fails because the
weak stor.iach is unable to digest fats.
Try this treatment. Before break
last each morning give the child tho
juice of half anorange. Afterthenoon
meal give one of Dr. Williams' Pink
Pills. Keep this up for a few days and
then give one of the pills after the
evening meal also. Weigh the Child
before beginning tho treatment and
again after two weeks. An increase in
weight of from two to five pounds will
show you that you are on the right
track at last. Care is necessary in the
diet of the patient an d it will be well
to send to the Dr. Williams Medicine
Co., Schenectady, JJ. Y., for a diet
I hook and the pamphlet, "Building Up
j the Blood." Both are free. Your own

Find Two More Bodies
Two more bodies were found to-day
j floating in New York bay within a few
i rods of the scene of the explosion,
i One of the bodies was identified as
i that of Captain Cornelius Leyden,
chief of the Lehigh Valley railroad po
lice and previously reported missing.
The finding and identification of
Leyden's body paves the way for the
prosecution of those who may be
found responsible for the explosion. In
•complaints upon which warrants have
been is'aed and served upon four per
sons, the death of Leyden is made the
basis of individual charges of man
slaughter. To make out the case it
was necessary to have the body found
and identified and every effort was
made to recover it.
The other body found to-day, bring
ing the death list up to six, has not
been identified.

AN OPEN LETTER
Asks Repeal of Jitney Ordinance
To the Mayor and City Commissioners,
Harrisburg.
Dear Sirs:
You are aware that about one hundred and seventy of the em
ployes of the Harrisburg Railways Company are on strike for bet
ter wages and freedom from slavery more galling than that of the
slaves of the South in 1860.
You are aware that the Harrisburg Railways Company is
carrying more than six millions of valueless stock, that it may the
better conceal its huge profits from the public.
You are aware that the greatest issue involved in this strike is
whether or not the water-logged concern shall permit its employes
to maintain a union for their protection against the injustices
heaped upon them by insolent and overbearing bosses.
You are aware that this badlv-managed concern proposes, if
it can defeat the strikers, to make them even greater slaves than
formerly.
You are aware that an American citizen is, at least, supposed
to be a free man, who may join, for his advantage, any lawful or
ganization he may please.
You are aware that the directors of this aqua-soaked institu
tion deny the right of the men to be organized and insist that they
must deal with the company as individuals.
You are aware that even the strike-breakers revolted against
their treatment by the bosses of the company and their grievances
had to be adjusted.
You are aware that the men who, as the manager boasts, went
back to work, did so because they were so poor while working that
they were unable to live more than two weeks idle.
You are aware of these conditions, so we call upon you to
settle the strike at once, that justice and individual freedom may
live in the land.
You are aware that you can settle this strike by laying down
the ultimatum to the company, that you will immediately rescind
the jitney ordinance and allow the jitney to run legally on our
streets. *
Knowing, as you do, that all the foregoing statements are
irue, we call upon you to exercise your full powers against the
Railways Company, in favor of the strikers and the public by at
once setting aside the jitney ordinance, in which the unfair Street
Car Directors are so much interested. If you do not do this, then
you will not have done your duty to the majority of your constitu
ents.
Very truly yours
C. F. QUINN, Secretary,
PENNSYLVANIA FEDERATION OF LABOR.

How You Can Make
Hairs Quickly Disappear
(Helps to Beauty)
Even a stubborn growth of hair will
| quickly vanish from the face, neck or
arms after a single treatment with
I delatone. To remove the hairs, make
I a stiff paste with a little powdered
| delatone and water, applying to hairy
surface and after about 2 minutes
| off. wash the skin and it will be
free from hair or blemish. To avbf?
disappointment, be quite certain you
i get real delatone.
