Charles E. Hughesi yesterday ad- '
dressed his first audience composed
solely of women voters. They heard
him in the first of two speeches de
livered here. Mr. Hughes touched l
upon suffrage and his views concern-1
ing it, and reiterated to a large extent
attacks on the administration made at
Coeur d'Alene, Idaho.
'I speak to you women as I do to
men," the nominee said. "I did not
come here to make a different kind of
speech from the kind I make to men. 1
I kpow you are solicitous about the
welfare of this country. There is no
doubt that the heart of womanhood is i
patriotic all through."
World Has Found Itself
Mr. Hughes' salutation of the worn- i
en as "fellow citizens" was applauded, i
He told them he was interested in 1
"good national housekeeping" and the
means of effecting it. He said:
"We must have in this country a !
different notion about the conduct of
our business than we have had in the j
years gone by. This world is not the
world of even twenty-five years ago. '
This world is a world that has found
itself. It has found itself in the de- i
pression of a terrible Gethsemane. |
Horrible as is the spectacle of war,
frightful as is the waste, we cannot '
look upon them without realizing that
a new Europe is emerging from this
struggle. We cannot contemplate the
conditions of the twentieth century
without knowing that there is to be a
new spirit in the United States if our
prosperity is to have a firm founda
tion. It must be a spirit which de- ;
mands efficiency, impartial govern- j
ment in the interests of all the people. :
"Is is easy for some to become en- j
thusiastic when the bands are playing |
and the flags unfurled, when they j
hear the strains of the National An- j
them and the crowds are around them.
But we must have a new spirit of
enthusiasm in the humdrum work of I
administration, the spirit of patriotism
in the administration of government. |
That is the hardest lesson for popular 1
government to learn. Every day in |

Mr. Hughes declared that he con
sidered a protective tariff essential to
i a continuance of prosperity. "The only
chance that the present adminstration
has to carry this election," he said, "is
because the European war has saved
it from a demonstration of its ineffi
ciency."
What Will Become of Boast?
The nominee repeated his assertion
that the Democratic party had as
cribed to itself benefits accruing from
the war.
j "I wonder if they think the Demo
cratic party and the European war
are synonymous," he said. He spoke
1 of conditions here after the war.
"Then, where will the Underwood
tariff leave us?" he asked. "Then,
i what will become of the prosperity
which is so clearly a boast at pres
ent?"
Mr. Hughes reviewed his previous
declarations concerning the admin
istration's policies and appointments.
He spoke later at an open-air meeting,
and left at 9 o'clock for Tacoma.
In his speech at Coeur d'Alene
earlier in the day Mr. Hughes, reply
ing to criticisms that he was not con
: structive in his policies, declared that
he stood for a protective tariff, a bud
set system, elimination of the pork
barrel, the end of waste and extrava
gance and the appointment to public
service of men qualified for office.
"Is that not constructive?" Mr.
Hughes asked. "I believe that they
are the fundamentals of constructive
. policies which this nation is facing to
day."
Isn't This Constructive?
Mr. Hughes reiterated his declara-
I tion for a national budget system.
"I do not know anything in the line
i of constructive work in this country
j that is more needed than that," he
jsaid. "It is fundamental. But I-tell
.you you cannot do it if you are run-
I ning the departments of our govern
ment for mere partisan expediency or

fices that they are not qualified to

Mr. Hughes said he considered the
I elimination of the "pork barrel" as a
constructive policy.
"We have poured too much Amer
ican money into streams a few inches
: deep and have nothing to show for it,"
he said. "How are you going to cor
rect it? Tou will never do so unless
j the Executive takes his political life

The nominee repeated his views
concerning the appointment to public
office only of men qualified to fill of

best qualified men for office should he
!be elected.
! "Is that not construcUve?" he
asked. "I regard it so—fundamen

PENNSY READY IF
TRAINMEN STRIKE
Officials Tell of Plans to Have
Office Employes Run Trains;
Ask Protection
Special to the Telegraph
Philadelphia, Pa., Aug. 15. —In the
event of a railroad strike, officials of
the Pennsylvania Railroad say the
company will be able to give ample
train service, providing its property
and employes are protected against
violence. It was explained yesterday
that the trains would be manned by
crews selected from the large force of
employes who recently volunteered
their services to the company in case
of need.
According to one of the officials, the
loyalty of this force is remarkable.
Clerks and office heads, men un
familiar with any form of manual
labor, have even expressed their will
ingness to act in the capacity of en
gine wipers and oilers, should a strike
be declared. On the other hand, the
company has announced that it has
listed already the men who could be
called upon to act as conductors,
brakemen, engineers and firemen.
Clerks as Trainmen
"Naturally,.the conductors will be
selected principally from among the
office employes." explained the official
in discussing this matter. "Howeveri
it must also be remembered that many
of our employes have had experience
in more than one branch of the serv
ice, and among this number we have
found men capable of performing al
most any duty in connection with a
train."
When the call for volunteers was
sent out, more than a month ago, each
man was asked to sign up for the posi
tion which he considered himself best
suited; therefore, the company has
been able to estimate with more or
less accuracy just what kind of train
service it can probably render in case
of a strike.
So far as engineers are concerned,
it has been announced that they will
be recruited principally from the shop
forces. According to an official state
ment, an overwhelming .majority of
the shopmen have placed their serv
ices at the disposal of the company.
INCREASE FOR TRCCKERS
Special to the Telegraph
Reading. Pa.. Aug. 15.—Following
the presentation of a petition asking
for a wage increase from 19% to 30
cents an hour, the truckers in the
Reading freight department were
granted 21 cents an hour.
A petition from the clerical force
for a 15 per cent, increase was denied.
ENGINEER GRIEVES TO DEATH
Special to the Telegraph
Cleveland, 0., Aug. 15. Unable to
put from his mind the sights of the
wreck, Dennis W. Leonard, engineer
of the Twentieth Century Lake Shore
limited train, wrecked at Amherst, in
which twenty-three persons were kill
ed. died at his home in Toledo to-day.
His friends declare he also was a
victim of the wreck. He was not in
jured in the disaster, but ever since
the company placed the blame on him
he had failed in health.

hcieiit tuuus lor the purpose, was put
up to President Judge George Kunkel
of the Dauphin county courts to decide
in a mandamus proceeding heard yes
terday between the State Highway De
partment and the county commission
ers of Northampton county.
The hearing was unique not only
because it marked the first time the
peculiar phase of the highway im
provement problem has been presented
for judicial interpretation but because
of the illuminating figures which were
submitted on the improvement that
been done on Pennsylvania roads.
Northampton's county commission
ers want the road between Nazareth
and Bethlehem maintained by the
State and accordingly mandamused
the State Highway commissioner.
The State authorities contended that
the section in question is a county
built road which it has not yet taken
over and which it optional for the
State to include within its Jurisdiction.
Even if it wished to take over the
Nazareth-Bethlehem road, argued the
State Highway Department, it can't
afford to do so as it hasn't sufficient
funds now to fulfill its obligations so
far as township roads are concerned.
Figures submitted in court yester
day by Deputy Commissioner* Biles
showed that there are about 10,200
miles of roads in the State highway
system, 3,600 miles of which have
b°en improved by the State: 1,003
miles of the total are in boroughs
which have not been taken over, 154
miles of county roads and 394 miles
of toll roads. During 1915, $3,892,-

ment and of the $2,588,214.50 appro

FOUR DEATHS IN PHDLA.
By Associated Press
Philadelphia, Aug., 15. Four
deaths and six new' cases of infan
tile paralysis were reported here up to
noon to-day making a total of fifty
one deaths and 193 cases in the city
since July 1. The determination of
the health authorities to give Bpecial
attention to unsanitary fish, fruit
stands in the fight against the spread
of the plague resulted in the arrest
to-day or a number of dealers who
were charged with violating the san
itary code.
ADVISE .NORMAL BOARD SERUM
New. Xork, Aug., 15,=-FamHjf- fiUysl-,
cians were advised 13-day, by Dr. Abra
ham Zingher, of Willard Parker Hos
pital, to try the use of "normal" blood
serum obtained from parents as a
method of rendering their children im
mune to infantile paralysis. Many cases
of this disease have been treated in
Willard Parker Hospital during the
present epidemic. The theory on which
Dr. Zingher and his assistants are
working is that the blood of a normal
adult contains the antibodies which
neutralize the virus of poliomyelitis.
Some physicians believe the presence
of these antibodies due to the fact
that the parents have had: the disease
in an unrecognized form. It is stated
that if the theory of the antibodies
is correct, the blood serum treatment
may prove as effective in preventing
infantile paralysis as vaccination Is in
preventing typhoid.

STRICT PROVISIONS IN N. J.
By Associated Press
Camden, N. J., Aug. 15. With
srtricter provisions than those enforced
in Pennsylvania, the New Jersey
quarantine against infantile paralysis
went into effect at midnight. Health
inspectors are stationed at the various
points of entry into the State and no
child will be allowed to enter who has
not been provided with health certifi
cates. Although in Pennsylvania chil
dren are allowed to move about freely
without a health certificate, the New
Jersey quarantine prohibits children
going from one town to another in
that State unless provided with a
certificate. The State quarantine su
persedes all local quarantines where
the regulations were not so strict as
those of the State.
MALADY TAKES JUMP IN N. Y.
By Associated Press
New York, Aug. 15. The epi
demic of infantile paralysis has taken
a turn for the worse despite the con
tinuation of unusual cool weather.
During the 24 hours ending at 10 a. m.
to-day, 163 new cases of the disease
and 39 deaths were reported to the
Health Department. This is an in
crease in new cases of nearly 100 per
cent, over yesterday's figures, which
shoved 95 were stricken with the
plague and 31 killed. Failure of physi
cians to report cases over the Sunday
holiday was suggested as a reason
for the increase in to-day's figures.
Since the epidemic began there have
been 6,532 cases and 1,463 deaths'.
CASE IX LANCASTER

the new positions west of the Teu
tons' old line.
The Germans did not long hold the
trenches recaptured from the British
northwest of Pozieres on the Somme
! front, according to London. The Brit
ish war orfice to-day reports the clear -
: ing of the Germans from nearly all the
trenches in that region in which they
j gained a footing Sunday.
French Win 100 Yards
The French in the Verdun region
have resumed their hammering tac
tics and according to Paris have re
captured German trenches in the Vaux
Fleury sector east of the Meuse, to a
depth of 100 yards along a 300-yard
front.
j Rome announces further advances
for the Italians in their campaign on
the Carso Plateau, southeast of Gor
izia. The official bulletin chronicles
the capture of Austrian entrench
ments in that region and also positions
further northeast of Gorizia.
The Italians are making rapid
strides in their drive on Austrian ter
ritory, both north and south of Gori
zia, to-day's dispatches indicate.
In the former direction they have
reached the suburbs of Tolmino 18
miles northeast of Gorizia, according
to unofficial messages which report
the city on fire, and process of evac
uation by the Austrians, its fall being
momentarily expected.
Closing in on Tricst
To the southeast special dispatches
assert, the Italian advance guard has
reached a point within 13 miles of
Triest.
The greater part of the Austrian
fleet if reported to have left the har
bor of Triest for an unknown destina
tion. The Austrian naval base of Pola
lies on the Adriatic 55 miles south
east of Triest.. This would naturally
be the refuge of any portion of the
Austrian fleet, which might be at
Triest. when the safety of that city
was considered to be menaced.
City of Much Importance
Tolmino, a place of only some 2,000
inhabitants before the war, has been
of chief importance during the period
of hostilities because of the strong
bridgehead established there by the
Austrians in their system for the de
fence of the Isonzo region north of
Gorizia. This bridgehead, considered
I generally next in importance to that
of Gorizia, has persistently resisted
Italian attacks. The towr» itself, how
ever. which has frequently been under
Italian shell fire has previously been
reported abandoned by the Austrians,
but these reports have never been
confirmed.
The Italian Navy has lost one of its
big dreadnaughts. according to a
Tueran dispatch through Paris, which
tells of the blowing up of the 22,000-
ton Leonardo De Vinci in Taranto har
bor as the result of a fire. Of the
crew 300 were drowned.
Russians Are Drawing
Closer to Austrians in
Retreat; Position Serious
London, Aug. 15.—Von Bothmer is!
continuing his flight over the whole
front from the Sereth River to the j
Dniester. The Russian armies of Gen-'|
erals Sakharo, Letchitsky and Scher- i
batcheff are drawing closer to the re- !
treating Austrians every hour. Al
ready they have struck at the Aus- j
trian flanks along the railroad to Pot- I
utory and apparently have cut deeply
into the enemy's forces.
Military critics here are already dis
cussing the possibility of nnother
Sedan. It is firmly believed that
neither Von Bothmer nor Flanzer can
escape from the Russians with their
armies Intact, and some observers
foresee the capture or destruction of
the main port of both forces.
> The Russians have captured thej
strongly fortified town of Tustobaby,
northwest of the Dniester. On the
upper Sereth, however, the Teutonic
Allies at some points on their
chosen line are holding back the Rus
sians with a vigorous artillery fire.
Berlin says that south of Brody, on
the Lub and Graberka sector, Russian
attacks were put down with heavy
losses and that Russians who had
penetrated Teutonic positions on the
Zborooff-Konicay line, northeast of
Tarnpool, later were, driven out and
3,00 of them taken prisoners.
A summary of the prisoners and
booty taken bf the Russians during
last week's operations, estimates that
83,200 men and 1,720 ofcers were
captured and 69 guns and 342 ma
chine guns and bomb throwers taken
by Generals Letchitsky, Scherbatchoff
and Sakharon.
