Governor Martin G. Brumbaugh and
Auditor General Powell did not make
any comments to-day upon the stir
which has been created over the ex

Auditor General has let his statement
of yesterday stand.
There are intimations that the whole

THURSDAY EVENING,
N. Y. BROKERS TO
SUBMIT RECORDS
I
List of Transactions From De-i
ccmbcr 10 to 23 Will Be ]
Used in Leak Probe
I
New York, Jan. 25.—Members of
the Stock Exchange to-day received
copies of the resolution adopted by
their governing committee requesting
them to prepare records of their trans
actions for use at the congressional
"leak" investigation. Brokers were j
reluctant to express opinions ks to |
j how far this information would com- :
J ply with the desires of the investlgu- j
| tors.
I The rules committee of the House,!
which is conducting the inquiry to j
ascertain if advance reports of Presl-'
dent Wilson's peace note were utilized •
|by speculators, suspended their ses- j
■ sions yesterday to awatt this evidence, j
j Sherman L,. Whipple, counsel for the;
; committee, remained here to expedite, j
jif possible, preparations for the re- j
'.sumption of the inquiry next week. 1
| Mr. Whipple said he hoped sufficient'
; data would be received trom some of \
the brokers to enable the committee
to resume its work here next Monday,
\ alt hough because of personal engage
| ments of committee, members in
j Washington, there might be no fur
! ther sittings before Tuesday.
; In Wall street it was admitted that
isome brokers might refuse to comply
j with the committee's request, despite;
!its niodilication. The resold on of \
! the board of governors received by |
the Stock Exchange brokers calls for
the submission of transactions be-I
'tween December 10 and 23 with the
names of clients, but to safeguard
their customers brokers are asked to j
place the names in separate envelopes
land to mark them with symbols by!
(which they may be identified with the;
j records of dealings in ease the ex- j
j amination of these records arouses!
suspicion.
EMPEROR OF JAPAN
DISSOLVES HOUSE
j [Continued I'ioni firs! Page]
j ihe attack on the ministry, accusing it
!of being unconstitutional. Confronted!
J with the certainty of an adverse vote, -
| Premier Terauchi said the situation!
involved the prosperity of the empire!
and declared that while he maintained ,
the confidence of Emperor Yoshihito
he could not accept the verdict of the !
house.
Mr. Ozaki mounted the rostrum to j
continue his attacks on the govern- (
mcnt when an imperial messenger I
suddenly appeared with the rescript of 1
dissolution. The members of the j
house dispersed in an uproar.
Elections to the new house of repre- j
sentatives probably will be held in j
April or May. There are indications j
that in view of the criticism of aj
nonparty ministry. Premier Terauchi!
will throw his forces to the Seyu-Kai
(Constitutional party), which is said I
to favor the new China policy out- |
lined by Premier Terauchi and For
eign Minister Motono.
A political crisis developed at the
opening of the diet on Tuesday. The
chief reason was the appointment of
Field Marshal Count Terauchi as pre
| mier by the emperor last October.
This appointment was a surprise both
in and out of Japan and was criticised
unfavorably by Japanese political
leaders, who contended the premier!
did_not command public support. He I
is regarded as a representative of the]
radical militarist faction in Japan, al
though in an interview with the Asso
ciated Press shortly after his appoint
ment lie disavowed any policies of ag
j gression. Japanese newspapers said
the premier did not command a ma
jority in parliament and predicted that
the outcome would be dissolution of |
the house and a new election.
Steadfast Refusal of
Mrs. Byrne to Eat or
Drink Causes Anxiety
New York, Jan. 25. Friends of
Mrs. Ethel Byrne, serving a .10-day
sentence for her activity in birth con- i
! trol propaganda, became alarmed to
day by her stubborn refusal to eat or
drink and declared they would appeal '
to both President Wilson and Gov.er- J
nor Whitman. Mrs. Byrne has not!
touched loot! or drink since 8 o'clock i
last Monday morning.
Mrs Juliet Rubles, who went to!
Washington to-dav to do picket dutyj
with the congressional union before j
the White House said she would strive'
to arrange for an interview with the
President. A deputation of prominent
women who are in sympathy with
j Mrs. Byrne's efforts to spread Infor- |
mation regarding birth control will j
go to Albany to see the Governor. '
Both federal and State officials will !
be urged to have the statute regarding !
birth control information revised.
A physical examination of Mrs. f
Byrne by penitentiary physicians
showed that, her heart action was nor
mal after fifty hours of lasting, but
that she was losing weight, according
to a statement to-day by Jonah J.
Goldstein, her counsel.
Mrs. Margaret Sanger, sister of Mrs.
Byrne, and pioneer in the birth con
trol movement, was indicted by the
Brooklyn grand jury to-day on the .
charge of maintaining a public nui-|
sance. She was released in SSOO bail.
Mrs. Sanger's determination to tench !
] birth control to the poor of Brooklyn
i in a "clinic" brought her into conflict
i with the police. Her trial on the same
charges as that on which Mrs. Byrne
j was convicted will take place Monday.
Hunchbacks Are Wanted
For Delicate Touch
Chicago. Jan. 25. Scanners of
j help wanted columns to-day were
astounded by reading "Three hump
backs wanted; easy work, steady and
! profitable. If competent."
Inquiry developed that the cripples
were wanted to operate certain ma
chines in an envelope factory where
delicacy of toucl. rather than strength!
was required.
"You see," said one of the firm
seeking the men, "girls have been
operating these machines. Now we
must operate night as well and can
not employ women for the night
work. A normal man is too strong
and is also apt to bo too clumsy. A
hunchback is generally a delicate
worker."

j Clement J. Driscoll, of New!
! York, Will Preform Work For j
Chamber of Commerce
j Clement J. priscoll, who will con
duct the survey of the Harrlsburg Po
lice Department for the civic com
mittee of the Harrlsburg Chamber of
Commerce, will arrive In Harrlsburg
lon the evening of Monday. January 29.
He begins the active work of the sur
[ vey on Tuesday morning. Mr. Dris
call will make his headquarters at
the Engineers' Club. South Front
street, while in Harr'isburg.
As a reporter on an evening paper
In New York Mr. Driscoll became i
prominent in civic affairs. He was
I chief of the bureau of weights and
measures. Subsequently lie became a
terror to dishonest dealers.
The late Mayor Gaynor appointed
him first deputy police commissioner
in October, 1910, on which occasion
lie resigned his former position to
enter the police department, where he
immediately gained much publicity by
a series of sensational raids on gam
bling and disorderly resorts.
At the time of his appointment
James C. Cropsey, now a supreme
court justice, became police commis
sioner. For two months Mr. Driscoll
continued to round up gamblers and
other questionable characters. Seven
months after his appointment Mr.
Driscoll resigned, ire later in speeches
blamed politics for the number of
gangs and gang leaders in New York
city. After his resignation from the
police department Mr. Driscoll became
connected with the Bureau of Mu
nicipal Research.
Since joining the Bureau of Munici
pal Research staff Mr. Drisuoll has
represented the bureau in the alder
manic investigation of the New York
police department and also investi
gated and reported on the police and

TRANSFER CASE
[Continued I'ioni l-'ir.si Page]
the remonstrants who presented a
petition signed by many of the resi
dents of the Ninth ward, brought out I
that there are three other bars close!
to the Metropolitan Annex.
Reference was made to the fact that
the old United States Hotel on the
site of the Metropolitan Annex, was
licensed for forty years, and that
finally the license was revoked be
cause of its misuse.
Fail to Reach Decision
Witnesses favoring the transfer in
cluded attaches of the Metropolitan
Annex and tl.e petitioner, Mr. Ebei.
Pictures were exhibited showing the
rooms of the Metropolitan Annex and
the bar at the National Hotel. Wil
liam M. Hargest and Senator E. E.
Beidleman, were attorneys for Mr.
Ebel.
The attention of the court was call-]
ed to the fact that there are only two
liquor licenses held by hotels oil the
north side of Market street, between
Cameron and Front streets, and wit
nesses testified that a number of per
sons stopping at the Metropolitan All
next expressed disappointment when
they learned that there was no bar in
the place.
James W. Barker, prominent church
layman, and Charles Boyer, both testi
fying as 1-cmonstrants declared that
they thought there was no necessity
for the transfer. Mr. Boyer, when
questioned, admitted that he thought
there should be bars in certain lo
calities, but did not approve of one
at the Annex. No decision was made
on the transfer.
FAKE SOLICITORS

at 1101 North Seventh street was at!
one time used by the Poor Board as '
a Colored Day Nursery.
Captain of Police Thompson and Miss
Rachel Staples, of the Associated Aid
Societies, were called, also ques
tioned the Williams woniun, and Mrs.
George Butler, who was collecting, too. j
Both were given hearings this after- 1
noon, at 2 o'clock, at police court.
Nearly *lll Collected
Small notebooks taken from the two ;
women, contained printed certificates i
that they were collecting for the home j
in .orth Seventh street. Investigations I
have been started to learn whether |
these are the persons who have been
soliciting without authority for at least
a year.
One of the books showed that $11.52
had been collected from sixty-four per
sons, while the total contributions, as
noted in the other book, were $90.47.
Many well-known residents of the city
are listed as having given donations
ranging from five cents to sl.
Dr. C. H Ci;ampton, of the Uw and
Order League, when he learned of the
case, issued a warning that residents
of Harrlsburg should not contribute
to solicitors for colored institutions or
churches unless the persons collecting
the money presented proper creden
tials, preferably ones sanctioned by
Mayor Meals and the Associated Aid
Societies.
Captain Thompson explained that un
der Mayor Royal. George Butler, col
ored, had been given permission to col
lect for a mission, but the different
stories told by the women that they
are collecting for orphans, will be in
vestigated.

Lancaster's Big Water
Plant Electrified by Power
From McCall's Ferry Dam
Lancaster, Pa.. Jan. 25.—Lancaster
yesterday abandoned steam for elec
tricity in the operation of its water
works. The change took place when
Mayor H. L. Trout pressed the button
that turned on electric power from the
great McCall's Ferry power plant.
Water was furnished heretofore by
three steam-driven pumps, while now
seven electric-driven pumps will be
used as required, two being used solely
for forcing the water to the filter
plant. The capacity of the reservoll
pumps is 21,000.000 gallons a day,
with an average consumption of
7,000,000 gallons.
Should the McCall's Ferry power
supply fail, a current from a Balti
more steam plant is available. If
that is disabled, the Engleside steam
plant, in Lancaster, can be depended
upon. If that fails, the water works
can rely upon a part of Its old steam
system, which will be retained for
emergency and kept in readiness.
All of the old pumps will he re
moved but one of 10,000,000 gallons
capacity. The improvements were
made possible by the citizens voting a
loan of $125,000.
Recommend Continuation
of Present Government
For Danish West Indies
Washington, 'D. C„ Jan. 25.—The
form of government for the Danish
West Indies was discussed at a con
ference to-day between Secretary
Lansing and Senator Stone, chairman
of the foreign relations committee.
Senator Stone recommended and
said afterward that Secretary Lansing
agreed that the present form of gov
ernment should be continued as nearly
as possible, under the direction of
either an army or naval officer, as
deemed best by President Wilson. The
present form of government is very
simple and centers largely about a
general council chosen on a limited
suffrage. An American customs of
ficial also will be appointed.
The chief question as to whether the
islands should be under an army or :
naval officer. Senator Stone said, will j
be left for the decision of the Presi
dent.
The navy, which was largely instru
mental in the purchase of the islands
as a valuable naval base In the Carib
bean and near the Panama canal, de
sires a government somewhat like that
of Guam. The army would like con
trol of the islands on the basis that
the insular bureau of the War De
partment already controls most of the
island possessions.
NO II.MIV CARRIAGES IN JAPAN
One's first Impression on reaching
Tokyo is tl.at it is exceedingly well
provided with means of transporta
tion. L'p through the middle of the
city runs the elevated trestle, under
which scores of warehouses and shops
utilize the covered space, and on this
four-track trestle electric and steam
trains enter and leave in steady
streams. The streets are filled with
automobiles, motortrucks. bicycles,
man-drawn carts—every type of ve
hicle except flic baby carriage. The
baby carriage of Japan is the mother's
back or the daddy's shoulder, and I
have no doubt that this closeness of
j mother and child throughout months
land years has much to do with the
excellent behavior of (he bright little
i babies. Street cars pass a given
j point every minute or two, and at a
j crossing there are always a half
dozen big trams in sight.— Maynard

Middletown Ferry Station
Case Heard by Commission
Public Service Commissioner James
Alcorn sat to-day in the Supreme
Court chamber to hear the objections
to the abandonment of the station of
the Northern Central at Middletown
Ferry, one of the noted stations of the
lower Susquehanna. The Northern
Central proposed to close it and to
have Riverview used in its place.
Members of the Free family, which
have owned land in the vicinity of the
historic ferry for many years, object
ed, pointing out the depreciation of
property which would ensue and the
long use which has caused many peo
ple living in the country to regard it
as a place to board or leave the train.
The Northern Central officials con
tended that the traffic did not jutify
the station and that there was more
business at Riverview, which they
contended was only a short distance
away in any event.

is cloudy, full of sediment; the chan
nels often get irritated, obliging you
to get up two or three times during
the night.
To neutralize these irritating acids
and flush off the body's urinous waste
j get about four ounces of Jad Salts
I from any pharmacy; take a table
spoonful in a glass of water before
breakfast, for a few days anil your
kidneys will then act line and bladder
disorders disappear. This famous
salts is made from the acid of grapes
and lemon juice, combined with Ilthlu,
and has been used for generations to
clean and stimulate sluggish kidneys
and stop bladder irritation. Jad

waler drink which millions of men
and women take now and then, thus
avoiding serious kiitoutt and bladder
diseases.

Universal and Compulsory
Military Training Endorsed
by Major R. R. McCormick
Washington, D. C., Jan. 25. —In en
dorsing universal compulsory military
training before the Senate military
subcommittee to-day Robert R. McCor
mick, of Chicago, major in the Illinois
National Guard and a newspaper pub
lisher, said proper military legislation
would not be enacted until all mem
bers of Congress had actual experience
or had relatives in the army or navy.
General public conception of military
needs, he said, was a condition prece
dent to adequate military legislation.
Long training periods for all Ameri
can youths upon attaining eighteen
years was recommended by Major
McCormick. He assailed transporta
tion facilities during the border mo
bilization and denied that, prejudice
exists among regular forces against,
the state troops. Universal training,
he said, would not inculcate mili
taristic ideas. Young pacifists, he de
clared. were cowards; old pacifists,
theorists.
CONQUERS RHEUMATISM
IN A VERY FEW DAYS
It is an established fact that one
half teaspoonful of Rheuma taken
onco a day has driven the pain and
agony from thousands of racked, crip
pled and despairing rheumatics dur
ing the last five years.
Powerful and sure; quick acting, yet
harmless, Rheuma drives blessed relief
almost at once. The magic name has
reached every hamlet in the land and
there is hardly a druggist anywhere
who cannot tell you of almost mar
velous cures.
If you are tortured with rheumatism
or sciatica, you can get a bottle of
Rheuma from H. C. Kennedy or any
druggist for not more than 50 cents,
with the understanding that if it does
not completely drive rheumatic poi
sons from your system—money back.
Dyspeptics Should
Avoid Drugs and
Medicines
Try u l.ittlr Magnesia Instead.
Some people instinctively shut their
eyes to danger, and It may be that
instinct, or custom or habit causes dys
peptics to take drugs, patent foods and
medicines, artificial digestents, etc.
But closing the eyes does not banish
the danger, and it is certain that neith
er drugs nor medicines possess the
power to destroy the harmful excessive
acid in the stomach, which is the un
derlying cause of most forms of indi
gestion and dyspepsia. They may givo
temporary relief, but ever increasing
quantities must be taken, and all the
time the acid remains In the stomach
as dangerous as ever.
Physicians know this and that is why
their advice so often to sufferers from
digestive and stomach trouble is "Just
get about an ounce of purse Itixtirnteil
magnesia from your druggist and take
a teaspoonful in a little water immedi
ately after every meal. This will in
stantly neutralize all the harmful acid
in the stomach and stop all food fer
mentation, thus enabling you to enjoy
hearty meals without experiencing the
least pain or unpleasantness afterward.
