This committee was created at the direction of the executive officers, fol lowing conferences held at Philadel phia and Pittsburgh, to devise means for satisfactorily handling freight offected by embargoes, between the | lines east and west. Its purpose Is to serve the public more fully by mak ing, us promptly as possible, modifica tions of. embargoes where transporta tion conditions and the ability of con signees to remove freight from the cars promptly .upon arrival, permit such exceptions to be muun, This makes more effective the object sought in handling freight under em r bargoes, which is to prevent terminal congestion by separating the freight that will be held in cars at destination, from that which will be taken off the railroad's hands without delay. Many More Cars As a result of the committee's ef forts, there have been moved in the last week, through the Pittsburgh and Buffalo gateways, more than 3,100 carloads of freight of all kinds, which were under embargo and could not have been handled with equal prompt ness, if at all, except by special ar rangement effected, by the committee. Of this freight, approximately 2,000 cars were eastbound ulid 1,100 cars westbound. At the close of the week, arrangements were pending for the movement of 4.100 additional cars of embargoed freight. During the period in question, the committee has had presented to it for consideration nearly 1,500 separate ap plications for individual shipments un der special modifications of the em bargoes. Constitutes Clearing House The Pennsylvania System joint em | bargo committee virtually constitutes a clearing house for handling all re quests for the special movement of freight affected by embargoes, be tween the Eastern and Western lines of the system. Its work practically unites the transportation facilities of the two branches of the Pennsylvania System in one organization. The ac tive work of the committee is' in charge of the following: John M. Gross, assistant general freight a&ent, Pennsylvania Railroad Company, chairman; J. E. Weller, general western frefght agent, Penn sylvania lines, Chicago, 111.; John Cal lahan, representing superintendent freight transportation, Pennsylvania Lines West of Pittsburgh; G. H. Bur tis, representing superintendent freight transportation, Pennsylvania Railroad East of Pittsburgh. Pittsburgh was selected as the loca tion for carrying on the clearing house work of the special committee because it is the most central point of the en tire system, affording the quickest communication by wire with all points of the lines east and wesv. This practice will be maintained In order that the export freight traffic may be strictly controlled, and the movement of foodstuffs and other necessities for domestic consumption may be as free as possible. This is in conformity with the established pol icy of the Pennsylvania System to give foodstuffs for home use prefer ence in movement over all other kinds of freight. Popular Young Fireman Is ~ Middle Division Employe A iHMi Jmmm PERCY L. SMITH An active member of the committee in charge of last night's ball of the Friendship and Co-operative Club was Percy L.

You Can Reduce The answer of most fat people is that it is too hard, too troublesome and too dangerous to force the weight down. However, in Marmola. Pres cription Tablets, all theso difficulties aro overcome. They are absolutely harmless, entail no, dieting or exer cise, and have the added advantage of cheapness. A large case is sold by druggists at 75b. Or if preferable, they can be obtained by sending price direct to the Marmola Co., 884 Wood ward Ave., Detroit, Mich. Now that you know this you have no excuse for being too fat, but can reduce two, three or four pounds a week with out fear of bad after-effects.

"V- HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH NEWS OF STEELTON DROP IN STEEL PRICES COMING Quotations Are Expected to Come Nearly in Line With Contract Levels Pigiron continues to hold the spot light. The spurt which the car con gestion gave % to prompt delivery buy ing two and three weeks ago was ac centuated in the past week by still high and more widely divergent prices. Dependent largely on the present un usual situation, prices are sooner or later expected to come more nearly in line with contract levels. Interfer ence with contract shipments has af fected steelmaking as well as foun dry iron. In summarizing the situation the Iron Age of to-day says: "With every day that much nearer the final removal of the snow barrier and with the improvement noted in car movements, industry is again look ing forward, although rail shipping questions are still the greatest concern. Destruction of shipping by submarines has not yet been a factor. That stocks at seacoast terminals may ultimately check operations at mills is regarded as so remote as not yet to warrant consideration. "What is noteworthy in the interna tional situation is an inflow of in quiries, which shows no diminution. Coupled with a heavy domestic de mand and generally low stocks in the plants o fconsumers, some strength is given to the talk of still higher prices for finished steel. Buying for the Government's pre paredness needs goes on slowly, wait ing largely the disposition of tile ap propriation bills now before Congress. It Is practically estabil&hed that the Mid vale Steel and Ordnance Company will provide facilities for malting 16- inch navy guns, and probably $2,000,- 000 will be expended for the additional equipment. "Some fresh sidelights on the do mestic situation may be briefly sum marized: Numbers of blast furnaces have sold their entire output into Oc tober. Pigiron contracts are reported, covering shipments extending into the lirst half of 1918. It appears that some 250,000 tons of steel bars for the agricultural imprement manufacturers have been closed for the last half. Fully 300,000 tons of plates, it is esti mated, could be sold on domestic ac count for delivery through 1918. Fair sized lots of' boiler tubes for use a few months hence have sold at 20 per cent, above going prices, which represent themselves unusually high profits.

Lettin' You in on the Secret IJ Some of these older boys who've been smokin' King Oscars ever since they were created a quarter of a century ago, can't un derstand how ,we keep 'em so regular. If Here's the answer we always buy the best that Nature produces. Cf 'Course she has her off years in tobacco, y'ust as she does in apples and peaches and other crops. <1 But you know it's seldom she ever makes a complete failure. There's some section or other in the world where she'll raise good apples or good peaches, no matter how contrary she is elsewhere. •J Same way with tobacco. IJ 'Course those years cost us a heap of money 'cause when the supply is low, the price is • high. But we can't get away from that qual ity-regularity in King Oscars. We just take our medicine, regardless of cost, and serve up in the same old style - / KING OSCAR 5 CENT CIGARS IJ And there's oniy one thing that'll ever change that policy when old Ma Nature falls down on the job completely, and simply won't raise any tobacco of A-l quality anywhere in the world. IJ But you needn't worry about that for some time to come. If Back in 1914 she overdid the trick raised tobacco of record-breaking quality all over the world. . - I Cf It's been passin' through a curin' process i since, and as soon as it was ready for the maker, we did, in buyin', what Ma Nature dicfl in growin' beat all previous records. fl CJJ So you're sure of one thing the same ol<l regularity of King Oscar quality that's what' 9 won 'em a lot of staunch, loyal friends in th>efl past is goin' to go right along for a good long spell. IJ They're better to-day than they ever were— if you're not smokin' 'em, you're missin' more 4 than you ever did. (f 5 cents at the nearest dealer's will prove it. JOHN C. HERMAN & CO.
