COURT TIRES OF
HEARING SEVENTH
STREET HOTELMEN
Declines to Listen to New
License Plea in Already
Crowded District
LEAGUES ENTER PROTESTS
First Attack Leveled Against
St. Charles Which Lost
Out Last Year
President Judge George Kunkel
ruled to-day that the court would not
hear a repetition of evidence when
Perry E. Speaks' application for a
liquor license for 1012 North Seventh
street, was presented.
Months ago, when T. S. Frye, pro
prietor of the Frye hotel. Fifth and
State streets, applied to have his li
cense transferred to the same place,
the court ruled that there was no ne
cessity for another bar in the Seventh
street district owing to the number of
lecensed places there already.
J. Ft. Bennett, attorney for the pe
titioner, said that he had additional
evidence, and presented a petition
signed by twenty holders of liquor li
censes. Another petition was pre
sented with the signatures of 181 resi
dents in the North Seventh street dis
trict. Harry B. Saussaman, attorney
for the No-License League, presented
a remonstrance signed by 178 people,
61 women and 117 men.
One of the points brought out by
counsel for the application was that
there is no licensed bar conducted by
a. colored man. Additional Lad Judge
S. J. M. McCarrell then asked if the
laws provided that liquor licenses
should be granted because of racial
need.
The first remonstrance to be heard
was against the petition of Patrick T.
Sullivan, for a license for the St.
Charles Hotel at Second and Washing
ton streets. This license was refused j
to the former owner of the place be
cause of misuse.
J. D. Shields. Paul Reindell and;
Charles Tress, all residing in the vi-,
oinitv of the St. Charles, declared on 1
the witness ptand that a number of
people had spoken to them of tl".o
need for a bar there, as the nearest, i
one was at Chestnut street, or at Hacc
street. One hundred and forty-three
names were presented with the re
monstrance, while 196 had signed the
petition.
Other hearings will be held in the
applications of George E. Winger,,
Samuel Fishman, Fred W. Ebel and;
Lewis Baturin. A number of minis- 1
ters, representatives of the Anti-Saloon i
and No-License Leagues, temperance
organizations, school officials and
business men were in court but were
not called to the stand by Mr. Sau'3sa
man.

I DRINK HOT TEA
FOR A BAD COLD
-
Get a small package ot Hamburg
Breast Tea, or as the German folks
call it, "Hamburger Brust Thee," at
any pharmacy. Take a tablespoonful
of the tea. put a cup of boiling water
upon it, pour through a sieve and
drink a teacup full at any time. It
js the most effective way to break a
cold and cure grip, as it opens the
pores, relieving congestion. Also
loosens the bowels, thus breaking a
cold at once.
It is inexpensive and entirely vege
table, therefore harmless.
MONDAY EVENING,
POPULAR INDUSTRIALS
ARE MUCH HIGHER
Coppers, Oils and Shippings Display Similar Tendencies
—Rails Are Only Laggards
New York, Feb. 19. —In the ab
senco of untoward events over the
week-end, the stock market seemed
disposed at to-day's opening to aug
ment the many gains recorded last
Saturday. Popular Industrials, includ
ing those in the so-called war class,
were higher by material fractions to
two points, coppers, oils and ship
pings displaying similar tendencies.
Central Leather, Cuba Cane Sugar,
Studebaker, American Woolen, Pitts
burgh Coal and National Enamelling
also were firm to strong. Ralls were
the only laggards, that group showing
little animation.
OnlnM Supplemented
Trading broadened and initial gains
were supplemented in the increased ac
tivity of the first half hour, dealings
embracing many of the obscure special
ties. Rails also caught up with the
general movement, especially coalers,
Chicago and Alton, Missouri Pacific and
Southern Railway preferred. Realizing
for profits exerted the customary de
terent effect, reactions ranging from 1
to 2 points in equipments and shippings,
with a cncurrent diminution of busi
ness. Advonces from industrial cen
ters reporting slowing down of opera
tions because of coal and car short
age also induced some selling. Bonds
were irergular.
Marines, metals and some leading
industrials eased off in the early after
noon, Bethlehem Steel, old stock, los
ing five points. Harvester Company,
Colorado Fuel, Gas shares and Ferti
lizers were strong at gains of 2 to 5
points.

good thing," said Mr. Tracy. "It ought
to do much to relieve conditions. Of
course it is not within the scope of
the Chamber of Commerce to conduct
the actual survey, but the organization
will lend its support to the move
ment."
"The police department is willing to
co-operate in considering the traffic
problem," was the way Police Chief
Wetzel put it.
Directors of the company are now
giving close attention to the results of
the surveys of the police department
and school district, Mr. Musser said.
"We are interested in seeing what re
sults are accomplished by those sur
veys," said he. "If anything of im
portance is accomplished by the work
there we may take the matter up.
We'll be guided largely in our decis
ion by these reports."
Want ItexultH, Sn> Muwier
Mr. Musser here explained in detail
that the surveys instituted by the
Chamber of Commerce had been watch
ed closely for some time. "We don't
want a survey," lie said, "merely to
make talk; what we want is results. If
these results are accomplished for the
police and school departments it will
have a great Inliuence with us.
"Wo are making every effort to work
out our problems and are glad to re
ceive suggestions from persons not con
nected with the company. Of course,
some of these suggestions are Imprac
ticable and cannot be used; others are
put Into effect. Just last week a man
wrote into the office with a suggestion
that we were glad to make use of.
DemanilM Heavier
"More demands are made on the serv
ice now than in past years. Business
has been greater every place than ever
before and we have every car on wheels
In operation in an effort to avoid con
gestion and crowded cars.
"Take the situation at Steelton now.
The steel plant Is employing many
more men than ever before. Kach
evening we are compelled to place the
equivalent of thirty-one extra cars on
the line. During the day we need only
Ilfty-one.
"General conditions are such that we
cannot get new cars. Generally the
company orders six or seven each year.
This time we ordered ten, but we can
not get the deliveries through. The
manufacturers have promised to try to
get five of them to use by Memorial
Day.
ItrtiHOiiN For "IlunehlnK"
"Traffic conditions in tiie central part
of the city are largely responsible for
the bunching of cars on the same lines.
It is not uncommon for automobiles and
teams to hold up cars for five min
utes on the loop around Walnut, Third
and Market streets. Now on lines run
ning on a five-minute schedule It is
impossible to avoid 'bunching' at such
times.
I'nsxenßer* Who Suffer
"A tendency on the part of some
persons to hold up cars with the idea
that they are annoying either the car
crews or the company also helps de
lay the cars. These people don't stop
to think that it really is the passengers
who suffer.
"Several days ago a team got on the
track at Thirteenth and Market streets
and the driver refused to get off until
he got to Tenth street. Of course traf
fic behind him was delayed. The com
pany's schedules are often delayed by
the building operations In North Sixth
street. Many of these delays are not
due to accidents but with the evident
Intention of delaying the cars."
In conclusion Mr. Musscr added to his
statement that crowded street cars are
In a large measure due to the Increased
demands resultant from the general
prosperity wave.

PORTAGE WATER
COMPANY RAPPED
Commissioner Breclit Cuts
Down Its Valuation and
Scores Methods
The Public Service Commission to
day ordered the Portage Water Com
pany to reduce its schedule of rates
for fire protection to the borough of I
Portage from $325 per mile of distri
bution mains, as set forth in the com
pany's schedule to $173.60 per mile,
and ordered the water company to in
stall six additional fire hydrants.
In the opinion which was prepared
by Commissioner Brecht, the fair valuo
of the water company's property for
rate making purposes wan determined
to be $132,520, of which the portion
within the borough used and useful
for domestic and fire service was
found to be $104,120, in place of
$211,921 ts claimed by the company.
This is the first case before the
Public Service Commission where
rates for tire service rendered a bor
ough by a water company was the
principal matter for the Commission's
consideration.
Under the proposed rate of the
water company the charges were ap
proximated at $76.50 per hydrant and
the Commission's order will allow the
water company $45.04 per hydrant.
The water company claimed to own
the coal in pillars under the right of
way in which the pipe line is laid, and
sought an allowance in the valuation
of the company's property of $32,374
therefor on the ground that the re
tention of the coal was necessary In
order to prevent the settling of the
ground and the breaking of the mains.
It appeared that the Portage Water
Company had taken over this plant
from the Martindale Water Company;
the older company carried the prop
erty on its books as then valued at
$121,456.61, which amount was im
mediately increased o nthe books of
the Portage Water Company when
the property was acquired by it to
$168,124.44. The Commission declined
to permit this bookkeeping increase.
No evidence was submitted support
ing the company's claim for going
value and no specific allowance was
made by the Commission therefor.

Air Needed
In Cellar
For Draft.
When a building is well scaled and there arc no
openings in the cellar which will allow the ingress
of cold air, difficulty is often experienced in pushing
the fire, although it seems to burn readily enough in
mild weather
Invariably the claim is made that something is
the matter with coal or the chimney.
The real trouble is that the cellar is too tight.
During mild weather sufficient air gets into the
cellar to supply all the oxygen required for combus
tion.
In cold weather the greater rate of combustion
requires so large a supply of oxygen that the fire
burns sluggishly. Sometimes when the furnace is
driven hard care should be taken to insure a supply
of air directly into the cellar.
