While State administration sympa
thizers are charging that the Penrose
people are dilly-dallying and schem
ing to prolong the legislative session
at public expense in order to hamper
the Governor the leaders of the domi
nant faction are declaring that they
have refused to listen to peace over
tures from the Governor's friends and
have also charged that records in the
Capitol are being tampered with in
order to prevent any disclosures which
may make trouble. Threats to probe
the Penrose campaign expenses are
being made again and there is an
evident desire on the part of Brum
baugh followers to keep expense ac
counts where they cannot be touched.
The Philadelphia North American
declares to-dav that the Penrose pol
icy ties the hands of legislators and
the senator is barking up the
wrong tree when he says that the fac
tional quarrel is the reason for the
delay. The Philadelphia Ledger says
that Penrose has enough votes to pass
the Sproul resolution, but that he
wants all of the senators present on
Monday night. The Ledger declares
it is the Penrose plan to "carry the
Brumbaugh leaders oft their feet,"
and that he has given notice that
Mayor Smith, of Philadelphia, can
avoid trouble by "lobbying for the
Governor."
Charges that the State administra
tion having failed to secure a protocol
is not trying to line up legislators
against the probe are made by the
Philadelphia Record to-day. The

SATURDAY EVENING,
Record says: "Peace overtures made
by the Vare-Brumbaugh forces in a
desperate effort to stave off the drastic
investigation of the State government,
which is provided for in the Sproul
Senate resolution, have been rejected
by the Penrose organization. Senator
\Y. C. Sproul, of Chester, author of the
investigation measure, admitted yes
terday that efforts to effect a compro
mise had been made by the friends of
Governor Brumbaugh, but that they
had received no consideration from
the Penrose leaders. "Yes, overtures
have been made, but they contained
nothing tangible," was the reply of
Senator Sproul to a question as to
■whether or not the Vare-Brumbaugh
forces were seeking a peace pact
"There can be no peace agreement
now," he added, in order to empha
size the refusal of the Penrose forces
to consider any offers which would
make the provisions of resolution
providing for an investigation less
drastic."
—The Record also says: "Intima
tions that the Governor's faction was
using the same methods it employed
to line up legislators in the speaker
ship tight in its efforts to get votes
against the probe measure were con
veyed by Senator Sproul. Realizing
that they have not enough votes to
block the passage of the resolution by
the House, the allies of the Governor
are said to be making desperate ef
forts to call off legislators who are
known to favor the investigation."
—The Ledger says to-day: "The
Penrose conferrees received word
from Harrisburg that the departments
under the Governor were going over
their records in advance of the Pen
rose investigation. Whereupon Sen
ator McNichol said that it might be
necessary "to adopt a stiff resolution
warning certain people not to tamper
with the records.' Auditor General-elect
gave the orders."
—Auditor General Powell, whose
contingent fund expenditures have
been getting into the limelight lately,
says that the charges he made are
not unreasonable and that it is a gen
eral rule that officials of high sta
tion may be allowed to incur bills at
State expense which could not be
passed for those <,f the lower grades.
He also declared that charges for
valet service, including pressing of
trousers, were allowed State officials.
—The fact that members of the
Legislature have been cashing their
postage orders at the Capitol instead
of buying stamps is held at the Capi
tol to be entirely a matter for the
members. The Commonwealth allows
SIOO for stamps so that legislators
may answer their mail on public
business. If they choose to take the
cash for the order and buy their own
stamps when needed that is not a
matter apparently that disturbs any
one at the Capitol. In years gone by
there were stories that members got
SIOO worth of stamps and worried
what to do with them most of the
session, while there have always been
rumors that some legsilators sold their
SIOO worth for $95 cash.
—Talk that Attorney General
Brown had Secretary of the Common
wealth Woods impound the election
expense accounts of 1914 and 1916
is pronounced absurd at the Capitol.
Mr. Brown made some inquiries and
was informed by Mr. Woods that the
accounts have been under the strict
est guard for many months and that
no one could get at them except un
der supervision of one of the attaches
of the department.

To .Mark Cars.—ln all probability

Brumbaugh is said to be contem

veloped during the Governor's cor
respondence with the Highway Com
missioner that the cars in the High
way Department had been marked
years ago. but that there were depart
ments which had cars which were not
marked. The Governor is understood
to have been as surprised at Uie num
ber of cars owned by the State as he
was to find that the Highway Depart

to extents never known before and
it is said that contingent expenditures
are being overhauled with a line-tooth
comb in order to find things which
will have to be explained. Even the
expenditures for postage are being
checked up. Although Saturday is a

The contract expires in May, but Mr.
