The Law and Order League has taken this step both for the good of the city and because it believes crime is engendered and encouraged where too many families occupy the same house. "Put a half-dozen or a dozen fam ilies in rooms made for one or two families and you invite disorder," said Dr. Crampton. "So long as the con ditions of which we have complained to the Mayor to-day continue there will be crime of all kinds among the people who are the victims. lam not defending anybody, but I submit it as a general and a reasonable proposition that even the mbst peacefully inclined people might not conduct themselves in a precisely examplary manner If penned up together as sonj,e of the folks are in the tenement houses of which we complain."

JEFFERSON BOYS Board of Pardons to Hear Ap peals For Rchearings of Doomed Youths Few sessions of V\\ 5 /Vy the State Board of \\\\ Wx/C/ Pardons since tlie SXXXXca days of the March f and Penntnt<>n cases have attract fd the attention VJrQQSQV which is being be- I JNilFiWlwtSw stowed upon the " fsfifi fflljljllll meeting of the . yiKiti'iuißc'M* board scheduled for to-morrow when the appeals | lor rehturings for the two Jefferson! county youths sentenced to death will jbe heard. The boys were refused rec | ommendation for mercy after exten sive arguments. An unusual number of letters and appeals for mercy are being received at the Capitol, not only the office of the board but those of the Governor and members of the board being ad dressed. Governor Brumbaugh has reiterated his well known position on capital punishment and said last even ing that he would have no opposition to its abolition. In Luzerne county the bill, vetoed some years ago, to give juries the right to set punishment nt death or life im prisonment, is being revived and Rep- I resentative David W. Thomas will present it. Meet in Pittsburgh. The State Compensation Board will .meet in Pittsburgh on Thursday for one day's hearings.

J Objections Withdrawn Objections to the proposed merger of various ' Pennsylvania lines west into the Pitts j burg, Cincinnati, Chicago and St. j Louis railroad company were with drawn before the Public Service Com- I mission to-day.

Ruling on Names ln an opinion I given to Secretary of the Common wealth Woods, Attorney General | Brown decides questions of similarity | of names of corporations in applying j for charters. It was contended by one company that the use of its name with \ addition of an adjective would tend jto confuse the public. The attorney j general says the secretary would be j justified in refusing a charter. COUNCIL IN ROW OVER WATER FUND [Continued From First Page] I sum appropriated from the water sur plus that is equal to a full mill. | Incidentally this will also mean that ■the appropriation ordinance for 1917 I cannot carry more than ss99.ooo—the same amount as in 1916. Consequent ly no more improvements, extensions, etc., beyond what had been done dur ing the year just closing, can be plan ned for in the coming twelve months. Bowman as "Housekeeper" • In offering his ordinance Mr. Bow j man reiterated his previous statement J of efforts on his own part to obtain the use of the water earnings to re duce the millage but had desisted upon advice of City Solicitor D. S. Seitz. Incidentally he pointed out how he had twice reduced water rates and said that he has been a good "housekeeper" of the departmental funds. Furthermore, he said, he be lieved in using the surplus toward a fund to eventually huild a new res ervoir. He doesn't like the plan of Council, however, to "throw the water earning" into the city general fund to be used as a "grabbag." He scarcely resumed his seat until Commissioner Lynch asked if Mr. Meals' or dinance had exempted the money the highway bureau received for paving "private cuts" made by corporations and individuals on streets in and out of guarantee. A warm debate followed but no defi nite action was taken. Riverside's Hope of Annexation Is Blasted by Council Riverside, the hustling little suburb to the north of Harrisburg, to-day formally withdrew its petition for an nexation to the city. For weeks the question of annex ation has been threshed out at length and a week ago Charles' L. Smith and Thomas F. Burns, a committee repre senting the petitioners, intimated that [ Riverside folks, wearying of the par leying and the delay, preferred to withdraw their petition. Council postponed action until to day, however, and on motion of Mr. Gross, superintendent of parks, the re quest for withdrawal was granted. Riverside, according to Mr. Burns, will not make further effort to come into the city, but will now take steps to seek Incorporation as a botough. In suggesting that the withdrawal be permitted Commissioner Gross said it has unfortunately been discovered that the cost of putting down new sewer connections, providing for prop er water lines, electric light, paving and other facilities would be such as to make it unsatisfactory for the city at this time, i Council passed finally to-day the or dinance prohibiting the parking of automobiles and other vehicles in Fourth street between Market and Chestnut streets, upon penalty of $5, $lO and $25 fines for first, second and each subsequent offense. Action on the salary raiser ordinance and on the measure provid ing for thirty additional policemen was laid over until after the budget makers get together, The budgeteers will meet again to night and the chances -are that there will bo meetings every evening until tho ordinance is completed.' At last evening's meeting a committee from the llarrlshurg hospital consisting of John Fox Weiss, ROBS A, Hickok and William M, Condon, superintendent of the institution, asked Council for a $3,000 appropriation for'a hospital motor ambulance, Mayor Meals promptly tendered a private subscrip tion of MO, fil'BH APPOINTED COACH Prineeton, N.
