FRIDAY EVENING, BABBISBOTO TELEGRAPH! OCTOBER 6, 1916.
Glenn Gotshall of the Associated Aids.
The history of the typhoid out
break, from contaminated ice cream,
the probable source of contagion, the
steps that have been taken through
co-operation of the State authorities
to check it, the grave need of facilities
for caring for convalescents in order
to properly relieve the hospitals who
are treating actual cases—these sub
jects were discussed at length by Dr.
Raunick. President McCormick. Drs.
McAllister, Funk and Douglas, Mr.
Yates, Mr. Bailey, Miss Miller and Mrs.
Gilbert.
Epidemic Xearing Crest
The physicians generally agreed
that the epidemic was "about at its
crest, although it is possible that the
high watermark will not be reached
for a week, probably by October 10."
The Polyclinic hospital it was ex
plained by Dr. Douglas Is crowded to
its capacity with patients; the Harris
burg hospital has room to accommo
date perhaps forty-five more patients
at the present time although the insti
tution is being sorely pressed for ac
commodations for convalescents.
That there are now many patients
in the hospitals which of necessity
must bo kept there because they are
not sufficiently recovered to be sent
home, because of the danger of con
tagion in their homes, or because of
the fact that there are other sufferers
a-bed there now, was emphasized.
To House Convaicfet-ciita
Facilities for housing these con
valescent*. which will include provision
for beds, dieting, nursing and super
vision of a physician for a week or
ten days after discharge from the hos
pital are the serious need confronting
the health authorities to-day.
Tho Visiting Nurse Association
which has been caring on its own ac
count for many cases, will continue
to co-operate with the city and health
authorities according to Mrs. Ollbert,
although she suggested further co
operation by a proper supervision on
the city's part of the sanitary condi
tions of many of the homes.
The failure of the Board of Poor
directors to provide milk and eggs for
convalescents, and coal to heat water,
was discussed. Secretary Yates re
ported that help had been asked on
one occasion but was refused because
the poor authorities declared they
had no legal right to give aid except
to the head of the family which pro
vided the revenue.
The Financial End
That other counties which have sent
patients to this city ror treatment
could relieve the situation in a
financial way was also brought to the
city commissioners' attention. That
many patients Incidentally are enjoy
ing the free privileges of the hospitals
who could afford to pay for the treat
ment, was also pointed out.
Lack of sufficient nurses and a woe
ful lack of cots for patients and con
valescents are further imperative
needs with which the medical and
hospital authorities have had to cope.
Disapprove of Tents
Establishing of tents or similar light
temporary structures on the lawns of
the hospitals or in the city parks did
with very general favor
either by the hospital officers or the
physicians.
The sanitary hospital, the Board of
Trade and several buildings in the
capltol park extension were suggested
as possible convalescent places al
though Dr. McAllister in discussing
the sanitary hospital Idea, called at
tention to the complications that
might arise if a case of smallpox
should develop during the typhoid
outbreak.
Quick Action
Messrs. Lynch and Bowman finally
brought the conference to a satisfac
tory end by suggesting that a com
mittee be appointed to select a site
and "let the question of expense be
taken care of afterward."
"Why wait until this matter gets

[Continued From First Pago]
the consolidation of nil the ground
gained is now reported.
Von Mackcuscn Firm
Sofia again reports the failure of
Russian and Rumanian attempts to
push back Field Marshal Von Macken
sen's line in Dobrudja. The complete
clearing of the southern bank of the
I>anube of the Rumanians who re
cently crossed the river near Rahovo
also is announced.
Attacks by the British on the
Somme front have gained them
ground along the Pozleres-Bapaume
road, acordlng to London's official
statement. A further inroad was
made into the German lines northeast
of Eaucourt L'Abbaye.
Only artillery activity in the French
section of the Somme front Is reported
In to-day's war office bulletin from
Paris.
British Raiders Active
British raiders have been active in
| both the Lille and the Lens region.
AVhether these raids on the German
j line have more than local significance
is not apparent. In operations in the
Loos and Armentieres districts, in
cluded within this area of activity, gas
was discharged from the British
trenches.
The German Crown Prince has re
sumed active hostilities at Verdun,
Paris announced. His guns have
opened up a heavy Are on the Cote Du
Polvre north of the fortress, while
elsewhere in the Verdun region the
artillery is notably busy.
Well Across Serb Border
On the western end of the Mace
donian front the Serbians and their
allies it appears from the Paris War
Office bulletin, have pushed their
lines well across the Serbian border
directly south of Monastlr and are
now within seven miles of that city,
along the line of the villages of
Mesdjidli, Kenall and Gradeshnltsa.
General Brusslloft Is persisting in
his determined efforts to break down
Teutonic resistances along the south
erly sector of the Russian front and
within the way to Lemberg. South
east of Lemberg his assaults have re
sulted successfully In several instances,
according to Petrograd, which reports
ttie capture of positions south" of
Brzezany, which were held against
counterattacks.
Turks In Retreat
In Volhynla and Northern Gallcia
the Austro-German armies are
obstinately standing against the Rus
sian offensive which according to press
dispatches from German sources is
being pushed by means of attacks
more violent than any experienced
previously during the war.
In Turkish Armenia, Grand Duke
Nicholas has continued successfully
his new offensive west and southwest
of Trebizond, Petrograd announces.
The Turks are being driven back to
ward the river Karshut, which flows
into the Black Sea, 50 miles west of
Trebizond.
Kaiser on Way to Eastern
Front as Climax Approaches
in Lemberg Fighting
Berlin, Oct. 6. lt is officially an
nounced that Emperor William has left
for the eastern front to visit the troops
of General von Llnsingen, against
whom the principal Russian attack Is
being made.
Desperate attacks by the Russians
are continuing on the Austro-German
front west of Lutsk, in Volhynla, army
headquarters announced. At the only
point at which the Russians reached
the Teutonic lines, north of Zubllno,
they were subsequently driven out.
Russian Attacks on Front
in East Are More Violent.
Than Any Since Start of War
London, Oct. 6. The Russian at
tacks on the eastern front are more
violent than any known since the
start of the war, according to a Cop
! enhagen dispatch to the Exchange
Telegraph Company, quoting the East
ern correspondent of the Berlin
"Lokal Anzeiger." The dispatch says
that near Karytruca and Zubilno
Russian infantry have attacked Ger
man lines for the last 86 hours without
cessation. This assault was on a front
of fifty kilometers and the cannon
ade continued all night.
German officers who participated
In the battle on the western front
are quoted as saying that the Russian
bombardment was now nearly as vio
lent as that on the Somme. TTie
Russians are using thousands of can
non and in a few days the Germans
fired 60,000 shells on a very srilall
front.
12 Die When Converted
Canard Liner Is Sunk in
Mediterranean by U-Boat
London, Oct. 6.—The admiralty an
nounces that the Cunard steamer
Franconla, employed for transport
duty, was sunk in the Mediterranean
yesterday by an enemy submarine. The
steamer had no troops aboard. Twelve
men of the crew of 302 are missing.
The Franconla was a vessel of 18,150
tons gross and was built In 1910. Her
maiden voyage was between Liverpool
and Boston In February. 1911.
The Franconla was 62 5 feet long, 72
feet wide and displaced 25,00 tons.
When she was built she was consid
fred one of the most comfortable
teamers of the Cunard Line. A strik
ing feature of the saloon appoint
ments was the absence of staterooms
on the boat deck, which was devoted
to a promenade room, a library, a
gymnasium and a lounge and smoking
room.
The vessel was nicknamed the "Bath
Ship," inasmuch as she had more bath
rooms and showers than the Maure
tanla. this equipment being installed
for the benefit of passengers bound for
long cruises of the Mediterranean.
Claim Rumanians Crossed
Danube After Successful
Raid Without Losing a Man
London, Oct. 6.—The recent crossing
of the Danube by Rumanian forces
constituted a successful raid, accord
ing to a wireless dispatch from Rome
to-day. The Rumanians, says this ver
sion of the affsir, destroyed Bulgarian
depots containing large quantities of
army provisions and recrossed the
Danube without losing a man.
According to the Bulgarian official
reports, the Rumnlans were badly cut
up by Bulgarian forces from Rustchuk
and Turtukai which caught the in
vaders between two fires and com
pelled their disorderly retreat with
heavy losses.
out of hand?" asked Commissioner
Lynch. "This is no time to talk about
the financial end of It. Let us have
something done now and we'll take up
the question of expense afterward."
Commissioner Bowman's motion
naming the personnel of the commit
tee, followed.
"It's Just 10:58 now." observed Mr.
Gilbert, "and I would surest that this
committee get busy at once. We can
begin work at eleven o'clock by call
ing upon Superintendent Rambo at
once.'

Campaign For Resumption
of U-Boat Activity on Old
Basis Meets With no Success
Berlin, Oct. 5, via London, Oct. 6.
Efforts to compose the differences be
tween Chancelor von Bethmann-Holl
weg and his opponents in the relchstag,
which have been in progress since ad
journment was taken after the chan
celor's speech, apparently have accom
plished little. The ichancelor's position,
however, appears to be unshaken and
such information as is obtainable indi
cates that the campaign for resump
tion of submarine activity on the old
basis has met with no success.
After several davs of confidential
conferences of the chancelor and mem
bers of his cabinet with a committee
from the relchstag, discussion of the
submarine issue and other problems
of foreign politics was resumed to-day
before the ways and means committee.
Herr von Jagow, secretary for foreign
affairs, and Admiral von Capelle, sec
retary for the navy, made statements
explaining the position of the govern
ment. The naval secretary frequently
interposed in the debate which fol
lowed, answering questions and meet
ing objections concerning the govern
ment's policy In regard to submarine
operations.
