: MNnrafti ers come back to
i Tt t ' ie State Capitol
after the usual re
cess to permit the
! committees to be made up. This
proposition Is now being- considered.
The arrangements were made to
place the pictures this week and to
have all In place when tlio solons meet
on Tuesday, but it was found imprac
ticable, as some work must be done
when the paintings are in place. It is
likely that when the Senate adjourns
until about the 15th or 22d the paint
ings will bo put in place and Miss
Oakley will come to Harrisburg to
complete them.

plications l'or help. Tho director has
been very active in getting information
and believes that there will be places
for every man without a regular job
or who has not been taken care of by
his employer while absent. His sugges
tions that employers needing men write
to him have been bringing a big bunch
of mail. One employer asked for ten
men.

Hagerstown, Md., Dec. 29. Dr.
Theodore Khara* was married in Bal
timore about Thanksgiving to Miss
Bessie Murdock, daughter of William
A. Murdock, this city, but the couple
have not been In Hagerstown since the
wadding. Mr. Murdock, when seen
to-day, said he knew nothing of the
alleged Eimira divorce proceedings
against Dr. Kharas, - but he believed
that his son-in-law was granted a di
vorce in another State and was free to
marry his daughter. He said Dr.
Kharas and his daughter, are now liv
ing in Harrlsburg, where the former
has ottlces at 202-203 Trustee building.
The couple are living In Second street

and started operations by erecting a
small concrete building at Halfway.
He left Hagerstown about two years
ago, returning occasionally and since

Former Business Associate
Here Says He Understood
Khar as Has Wife in Elmira
Dr. Theodore Kharas, lives at 1321
State street. His offices are at 203
Trustee building, 8 North Market
Square, but was not at his offices to
day. Stenographers said that Mr.
Kharus was somewhere in the Cum
berland valley, near Chambersburg or
Hagerstown, looking after the promo
tion of several stock companies. One
of the girls at the Kharas office said
she knew of no wife in Elmira, hut
said her employer had been married
recently to a Hagerstown girl.
Several peoplo who have been con
nected with Mr. Kharas in u business
way in this city, however, to-day said,
they had always understood that ho
had a wife living in Elmira, N. Y.
While Dr. Kharas was handling the
stock selling for the Charles E. Bard
Piano Player Company, more than a
year ago, a woman, who said she was
• Mrs. Kharas, called from Elmira on
the long distance telephone and in
quired for Dr. Kharas, according to a
statement made to-day by Charles E.
Bard, president of the Bard Com
pany.
The stenographer in charge of the
offices in the Trustee building said to
the Telegraph reporter who called to
see Dr. Kharas:
"We know nothing aobut a wife in
Elmira. Dr. Kharas was married In
Norfolk, Va., on November 29. He
formerly livein Elmira and conducted
a printing office which he still owns.
As far as I know he came to Harris
burg during September, 1915. With
his bride of eaeveral weeks ago he left
here yesterday in his automobile and
said he would return sometime to
night.
"Dr. Kharas is an efficiency engi
neer and promoter, and head of the
Industrial Securities Company which
sells stocks, bonds and other securities.
Ho organizes corporations."
Charles E. Bard, of the Bard Com
pany, said:
Dr. Kharas is no longer connected
with this company. He hot not been
identified with us since last January,
when wo dispensed with his services.
He Is a promoter, sells etock and gets
commissions. I heard ho Is Interested
In a bank at Mt. Alto, and a shirt fac
tory at New Berlin. He has offices in
the Trustee building, and is connected
with the Industrlay Security Company,
handling stocks.
"I recall that he called on a girl
named Miss Murdock In Hagerstown.
-Vl<l., and she is the one he married last
November, according to reports. 1
also heard of a wife ft Elmira, who
I had charge of a printing business. She
called up seevral times on the tele
phone to my knowledge and said she
was Mrs. Kharas. Tt was reported
that divorce proceedings had been
started, but I do not know whether a
divorce was granted. He is well
known in Hagerstown and about
Green castle, having sold stocks In that
locality. Ho has been doing business
in the Cumberland valley for some
time."
Up to a short time before his recent
inarrlagp, Dr. Kharas resided at 214
North Second street. When he moved
out it was announced that he would
take up his residence in Second street
near his otflce. r>uln*iuently It was

RA/LROAD MM
RAIL MILEAGE IS
SMALL FOR YEAR
Increase in Orders For Rolling
Slock; Outlook For Year
Is Bright
Chicago, Dec. 29. Although the
year 1916 was one of record-breaking
traffic and earnings, new mileage built
was the smallest with the exception of
1915 since the Civil war, according to
a review of the railroad situation
printed by the Railway Age Gazette.
This year 1,098 miles were construct
ed, compared with 933 in 1315. The
second track mileage of the year was
3 56, or 4 4 miles less than in 1915. In
Canada only 290 miles of new tracks
were laid, compared with 518 in 1915
and 978 in 1914.
New mileage projected in the United
States is 727; that being surveyed
2,126 and that being actually built
1,060.
Now Rollins Stock
New rolling stock orders increased
The orders call for 170,000 freight
cars, 2,3 49 passenger coaches and
2,923 locomotives. The freight cars
ordered outnumber those of the pre
ceding year by 63.000. Freight cars
?old abroad increased 10 por cent, and
locomotives nearly 400 per cent.
There was a small reduction in the
railroad mileage in receivers' hands—
-63 railways, with a mileage of 34,559.
At the beginning of the year this mile
age was 38,661.
"The outlook for greater prosperity
for the railroads and affiliated Indus
tries, and for a larger expansion of
railway facilities during the next few
years, seems promising," concluded
the review.
Eight-Hour Conference
Ends Without Decision
New York, Dec. 29. Conferences
between representatives of railroads
and the four brotherhoods of railway
employes, at which wore discussed the
possibilities of a settlement of the
eight-hour controversy, were discon
tinued abruptly to-day when it became
apparent an agreement could not be
reached.
It was announced by both sides that
there would be no more meetings un
til after the United States Supreme
Court hands down its decision on the
constitutionality of the Adamson act.
The brotherhood chiefs held, it was
3aid, that their men had the right
to begin drawing wages according to
the scale provided by the Adamson
law Immediately after the law became
effective Irrespective of the suits
brought by the railroads to test its
validity. The railroads announced
their determination to wait until the
Supremo Court decided on the Adam
son law.
The railroad managers held it would
he folly for them, in view of the awnrd
made last week by a board of arbitra
tion in the case of the Switchmen's
union, to pay the 50,000 switchmen
who aro members of the brotherhoods
at the rate of ten hours' pay for an
eight-hour day, when the award
grants only nine hours' pay for eight
hours' wqflt.
