PRETTY PRISONER
TELLS JURY HOW
DETECTIVES WORK
Declares Windsor Advised
Dentist Not to Sign her
Bail Bond
TOO MUCH PUBLICITY
Describes Alleged Third-De
gree Methods of Officers and
Protests Innocence
One method adopted by the city
detective bureau to apprehend a femi
nine suspect in a robbery case was
told this morning to a Dauphin county
criminal Jury by Anna Corpenny,
charged with receiving stolen goods.
Anna's arrest followed the appre
hension in Wllltamsport several months
ago of George Davies, who was
charged with having broken into and
robbed the residence of K. Wallower
at Front and Maclay streets.
Silver spoons, peurl ; handled knives,
vases und other trinkets which had
been stolen from the Wallower resi
dence had been given her at varioiw
times by Davies, the pretty witness
said. She never suspected they had
been stolen.
Following a search of her rooms,
however, the detectives took her to
police headquarters and then W. L
Windsor, Jr., superintendent of de
tectives, and a couple of his subordi
nates insisted, according to Miss Cor-
P ( enny, that inasmuch as "they had her
in the middle, she'd better come
through with truth and confess all
about the theft." Her repeated denials
I hat she had told them all she knew
elicited more rather paternal advice
that "she come through with the whole
story." Finally, she declared, Super
intendent Windsor announced that she
would iie held under SSOO bail for
court, and when she called a well
known llarrlsburger on the phone to
ask his help as bondsman Superin
tendent Windsor talked to the doctor.
Tells of Plioiic Conversation
" 'My advice to you, Doctor, is not
to go this girl's bail, as this is a very
bad case and you might be exposed to
undue publicity,' was Mr. Windsor's
message." declared the witness.
"Then." she went on, "1 heard him
say: 'All right, Doctor, I'll tell her
then, shall I, that yon haven't any
property in your own name, that it is
in your wife's name? Yes, sir.' And
then lie hung up the receiver and said
that the doctor had decided not to go
my bail.
"Several times both Mr. Windsor
and Paul Sehelhas and other detectives
took me aside and advised me to tell
the 'whole truth,' as. if 1 did, I would
not need to go to jail," concluded the
witness. "But I'd told them all I
knew—so I was taken to jail."
While Judge McCarrell tried the
Corpenny case. President Judge Kunkel
heard the trial of Lewis Stober,
charged with false pretense. John A.
Horner accused Stober of selling him
a horse which wasn't up to speci
fications.
Charles C. Steiner, formerly presi
dent of Common Council, was chosen
foreman of the September quarter ses
sions grand jury. Peter S. Gruber and
Wesley E. Horning. Conewago town
ship and the Tenth ward, respectively,
were excused. Petit jurors excused
because of illness or absence included
Daniel Brubaker, Halifax township;
Herbert G. Calvert. Fourth ward;

GOVERNOR WILL
BOOM EDUCATION
Outlines Some New Subjects
For His Address on Legisla
tion at York
In discussing the legislation which
he will urge upon the next General
Assembly at Philadelphia last night
Governor Martin G. Brumbaugh
showed that the demand of the people
in the smaller towns and the rural dis
tricts for better educational advan
tages had been Impressed upon him
and he added to the list of subjects
which he had already outlined a plan
for schools which will meet the condi
tions of the times and also to improve
life in the countryside.
The Governor reiterated his public
improvement program, which he made
known here during the summer, em
phasizing flood control, waterways,
highways and industrial legislation.
The new subjects he discusses are ag
ricultural conservation, education, the
eight-hour law and the cost of living.
The Governor said that he would
present his thoughts on the subject to
the Lieagrue of Republican Clubs when
it ineel i at York to-morrow, planning
to visit that city on his third tour of
the State. The address is to be used
by his friends in urging: election of leg
islators favorable to the program of
the Governor.
In his remarks, the Governor snid
about the new subjects:
"We must busy ourselves with the
soil of Pennsylvania. It cannot be
solved, this problem of the soil, in one
year, and it may take twenty, but it
must be done. It means a better
grade of farming and a finer intensive
system of agriculture, and to make
the farmer realize the most of his pos
sibilities the State must help. The
same thing is true of finding a market
for the farmer. He must have the as
sistance and co-operation of the Agri
cultural Department, and there is no
better way for that bureau to assist
than in aiding the farmer to find the
best market for his products.
Labor and capital must approach
the future with a spirit of co-opera
tion. I am in favor of the eight-hour
law, but I am opposed to the manner
in which President Wilson had the
proposition enacted Into law by Con
gress. He says that the eight-hour
day is not a matter for arbitration To
this I cannot agree. We submit mat
ters of as great moment to the inter
national tribunal at The Hague for ad
judication, matters in which there are
millions of dollars involved. We could
do the same here, and the President's
declaration that the eight-hour law is
not a matter for arbitration Is nothing
more or less than a neat side-stepping
of the question, such as he did in his
Saturday's address.
"In this State we must keep careful
watch on the relations between the
workmen and their employes. To do
this is one of the real big vital things
of the future and should be in line
with the constructive program that
changed into legislation, will make
the Republican party impregnable in
the State for at least twenty years
"The high cost of living is a living
problem that to my mind should be
treated nationally and not by an iso
lated State. We are an industrial Com
monwealth here in Pennsylvania, and
our prices are fixed largelv by the
markets of the world. The high cost
of living at least does not affect us
more than any other State. Person
ally, I think that this is a matter for
a national commission lo take up and
investigate. That is the onlv rational
way In which the high cost of living
can be traced to its real source."

19 North Third Street v
RAILROAD RUMBLES
REFUSE TO PAY
FOR WORK UNDONE
Western Railroad Executives
Give Reason Why They Op
pose Eight-Hour Ruling
Chicago, Sept. 2R. The basis of the
opposition to the eight-hofli' law re
cently passed by Congress, which will
result in litigation in an effort to prove
it invalid, and possibly more serious
consequences, is. according to the Asso
ciation of Western Kail ways, the ques
tion of paying for work not actually
performed.
In a statement Issued by the execu
tive committee of the association, an
analysis of the payrolls of fifty-six
western railways is given, purporting
to show that in one year they paid sl,-
403,038.74 to engineers and firemen for
which no actual work was done. Con
tinuing, the statement says:
"This pay for service not performed
was compulsory, not voluntary.
"The sole reason for it is found in
the two little words 'or less,' which are
included in the wage schedules of train
service employes.
"Most of the present wage schedules
in freight service provide at the outset
that 'ten hours or less, 100 miles or less,
shall constitute a day.'
"The words 'or less' make it compul
sory on the railroad to give a full day t>
pay at least to every train service em
ploye who is 'called for duty,' no mat
ter how short a time he may actually
work, whether he runs one mile or 100
miles. e
"The difference between the actual
mileage run or hours worked by a train
crew mid the 100-niile minimum which
must be paid for is known as 'con
structive mileage.'
"In the wage issue the train service,
employes demanded a full day's pay
for 'eight hours or less, 100 miles oi
less.'
"The words 'or less' prove absolutely
that the train service employes did not
want a real 'eight-hour day,' as they
claim, but that tliey did want to be paid
for 'eight hours or less' the same wages
they get now for 'ten hours or less.'
"Thus the demand was really for
twenty-five per cent, more wages, with
a. further Increase in the form of time
and-a-half for overtime.or eighty-seven
and a half per cent, more than the pres
ent rate."
Specific case are quoted in which
eleven engineers on western roads each
earned over $3,000 in a year.
An engineer on the Atchison, Topeka
and Santa , says the statement, in
one month made $264, running 6.3 hours
per day, and for the year earned $2,-
875.77 or an average of $239 per month.
An engineer on the Denver and Rio
Grande working twenty-neven days in
one month earned 1246.86 in freight
service and $16.10 additional for a
round trip Ane day in passenger ser
vice.
