Physicians Notified Absent-mind
ed Pennsylvania physicians and sur
geons, absorbed in their profession to
the extent of forgetting to send bills
for their services, are finding a friend
in the State Workmen's Insurance
Fund. The State Fund has adopted
the plan of requesting bills from for
getful physicians who have treated the
injuries sustained by an employe
whose employer is protected by a
workmen's compensation insurance
policy in the State fund. Assistant
Manager Albert L. Allen, of the State
Fund, said to-day that this procedure
has Deen adopted simply as a part of
the service which the Stato Fund is
rendering to all classes of citizens of
the State of Pennsylvania. He added:
"The State Fund not only sells com
pensation insurance to Pennsylvania
employers at net cost and exerts un
usual efforts to place, promptly, com
pensation payments in the hands of
injured workers, and to the depend
ents of workers killed, but it also
invests its available moneys in Penn
sylvania municipal and school bonds
as well as in guaranteed mortgages
on private homes in Pennsylvania.
(Now it has decided to jog the doctors
for their bills in order that they may
obtain prompt payment and cases may
be promptly closed in this office. It
is all a part of the service of the
Fund."

Shortage of Coal
Threatened
A recent bulletin from the
coal regions sounds this
warning:
Shorter hours; shortage of
labor; shortage in produc
tion; these are the conditions
ndw existing in the coal re
gions. Those who say, "We
will buy coal as and when we
want it," will discover that
the supply is not under pres
sure like water at the kitchen
sink, which can be drawn on
at will and without limit.
Existing conditions fore
shadow the most serious
shortage of coal this winter
that we have known since
the strike of 1902.
If you would be advised,
buy coal now—the supply is
sufficient for all orders, and
Kelley is still selling coal at
the old prices that obtained
before the recent advance.

HAVE EIPDEMIC UNDER
CONTROL IN STATE
[Continued From First Pagej
Dr. Dixon, State Health Commissioner,
said to-day:
Cool Weather Stays Plague
"The quarantine has been most sat
isfactory, and there have been few
attempted evasions. The present cool
weather has assisted considerably in
staying the spread of the disease, and
I believe it is now well in hand."
Dr. A. J. Smith, pathologist at the
Universty of Pennsylvania, has been
engaged by Dr. Dixon to make lab
oratory experiirvents in an effort to
discover the and cure of infan
tile paralysis.
A meeting of the various branches
of the County Medical Society will
be held to-night and to-morrow night
to discuss plans for closer co-operation
with the city and State health au
thorities.
Aided by thirty additional inspec
tor::. a score of trained nurses and a
detail of police, the State health offi
cers at the ferries were busy handling
the children coming from seashore
points.
No Additional Cases
of Paralysis Here
No additional cases of infantile
paralysis here have been reported to
the health authorities, but every pre
caution is being taken to prevent a
possible outbreak.
City Health Officer J. M. J. Raun-
Ick suggested to-day that all children
taken to the camps conducted by the
park department, should be required
to furnish certificates as a protection
to the other children on the outing.
The same suggestion was made to the
Sunshine Society members, who are
arranging to take some youngsters to
a summer camp.
The health officer stated to-day that
a number of prosecutions have been
staited against property owners, who
havo open lots and neglect to cut
down the weeds. Notices were given
a number of owners, and some of
them paid no attention to the warn
ing. The health official in explain
ing his action said, that the weeds are
a menace, and usually furnish good
breeding places for mosquitoes and
other harmful insects.
Yesterday the bureau offices were
kept open to furnish certificates to
parents desiring to take their chil
dren out of the city. The little child
1 now being cared for at the almshouse j
is slightly better, according to Assist
ant Health Officer Rltzman. The
cleanup in the foreign section con-!
tinued to-day, and sanitary officers j
have completed a thorough fumiga-!
tion of the place where the last case
of the disease developed.
INJECT SERUM EARLY
By Associated Press
New York, Aug. 14. Physicians
employed,by the Health Department
to investigate reported cases of in
fantile paralysis hereafter will be
equipped wwith serum made from the
blood of persons who have recovered
from the disease so that in every true
case an injection may be made at
once, before the patient is removed to
a hospital.
DECLINES IN X. Y.
By Associated tress
New York, Aug. 14. The epi
: demic of infantile paralysis took a
turn for the better to-day. The num
ber of new cases reported to the
Health Department went under the
hundred mark for the first time in
several weeks. During the 24 hours
ending at 10 a. m. the plague killed
31 children and 95 new cases were re
ported, 43 of them in Manhattan and
SI in Brooklyn. This compares fav
orably with yesterdays figures when
there were 141 new cases and 22 fa
talities. The falling off In cases was
attributed to the cooler weather.

10,000 FEDERAL
CLERKS OFF ROLL
Guardsmen Cut Off Payroll by
Law; Penrose Seeks
Remedy
Washington, Aug. 14. ln the face
of President Wilson's utterances prais
ing nrivate employers for their patriot
ism in continuing the salaries of their
employes serving in the national guard
there are more than 10,000 federal
placeholders on the border who have
been deprived of their federal salaries,
many of whose families are now in dis
tress.
Senator Penrose and Senator Town
send became interested in this matter.
Townsend gathered all the available
information on the subject and esti
mated that fully 10.000 government
employes, apart from carriers, have
been obliged to sacrifice their salaries.
Senator Penrose, as the result of the
revelations and his investigation, in
tends to introduce a resolution calling
for reports from all government de
partments, showing the number of
i government employes doing military
i duty and the amount of the salaries
they have been forced to forego. As
soon as it is ascertained how many
men are affected and the amount of
their salaries. Senator Penrose will in
troduce a bill to provide for the pay
ment of the salaries to these men for
a period of three months or during
their term of military service.
