Troop C Attacks Members of the Governor's Troop I had an interesting experience yester- ] day afternoon when theoretically 1 they dstroyed with dynamite the i Pennsylvania and Philadelphia and Reading railroad depots and the Mul berry street bridge. A patrol under the direction of Sergeant Fink had been sent out by Lieutenant Kline ' with orders to destroy, theoretically, all objects of a military value. At the same time a patrol under ' direction of Sergeant W. M. Gard- i ner entered the city from the north. ! and a third patrol went out under the direction of Lieutenant Kline. J Two patrols met near Reservoir Park and a skirmish ensued. Great slaughter resulted. To the remain- | der of the troop Captain Roberts lec- ! tured upon the subject "Security and ' Information." "Brownie" I .aid to Rest "Brownie," canine member of the Eighth Regiment band, was laid to rest this morning with military hon- ! ors. The band. In bereavement, j played a funeral dirge as two of the mounted orderlies laid the dog in his last resting place at the end of the island. A salute was fired over I the grave as the bugler sounded taps. ' Co. D leaves To the accompaniment of waving 1 flags, applauding hands, hats tossed ! in air. fluttering handkerchiefs and! low murmurs of farewell, the bovs of Company D. Eighth Infantry, passed through a sea of solid humanity ex tending from North street to the' Pennsylvania station, last evening. Uncomplainingly the people of' Harrisburg and surrounding country ; stood for hours in the sweltering sun, eager for an opportunity to wave farewell to the brave boys who were about to enter upon the first stage of j their journey lor "somewhere in; France." The demonstration was one of the j most remarkable ever held In this city. Never since the outbreak of j the Spanish-American war has there ! been such unbounded enthusiasm. j No Kffort to Conceal Amotions ! Last night thousands of persons! jammed the sidewalks of this oit>. struggling for a point of vantage. Then came the advance guard, clear- | ing the way. A moment later the I parade was in progress, and stillness j swept over the vast crowd. Under a veritable canopy of flags | the boys marched down Market i street, while men cheered, women l wept, and youngsters watched with | rapture-lit faces. To many the pa- j rade was an epoch-making event. For the first time, the people of: Harrisburg realized that the grim, pitiless hand of war hovers over this j city. And side by side with those I who laughed and spoke lightly to j the passing soldiers were fathers with tight-clinched hands, mothers [ with wet eyes, sisters and sweet-1 hearts who made no effort to conceal I their emotions. Traffic Stopped Although the purade was desig-; nated to move at 4.30 o'clock, tliei start was not made until almost an I hour and a half later. At 2.30 the fire alarm called thousands from i their homes, and the crowd continu- j ed to increase until, it is estimated, ! fully fifty thousand persons awaited I the coming of the troops. The crowd was so large that it was found neces- [ sary to stop traffic in the business section of the city. Street cars and | vehicles were routed over streets in I which the traffic was light. Headed by a squadron of police i and accompanied by the New Cum- j berland Band, the first division swept into Third street, with Troop C, First j Pennsylvania Cavalry (the Govern-' or's Troop) on the right. The troop I was dismounted, with the exception j of four mounted orderlies, who per- ] formed duties in assisting the chief marshal in forming the parade and in keeping back the crowds along the line of march. Immediately fol lowing, came the veterans of the Civil War, who received a full share of the plaudits of the crowd. Com pany I and the Machine Gun Com- i pany were next in line. Then came ; veterans of other foreign wars with j a turnout exceeding 100. The City j Grays brought up the rear. The Steelton Band headed the sec- i ond division, followed by the Harris- | burg Reserves, who made an excel- j lent showing. Marching clubs, to gether with a delegation from the j Furniture Dealers' Association came 1 next, while clerks-and miscellaneous j interests completed the division. The third division was made up! wholly of active military organiza-l tions. Colonel M. E. Finney and his staff formed the first rank. Then came members of the headquarters company, Harrisburg men who have recently been commissioned officers, and bringing up the rear was Com pany D. Co. 1> Passes Through With the chimes of Zion Lutheran ' Church ringing out a patriotic selec-1 tion and the Eighth Regiment Band playing the national air, the parade was brought to a halt In Market street. Here the various units broke rank to permit Company D to pass through. Get Away at 0 O'clock At the trainshed there was a gen eral stampede, and the efTorts of city and special officers were re quired to bring about order. The officers were powerless to control the crowd that pushed back and forth in an effort to get a last look at the departing soldiers. Until a late hour last night thou sands of persons lined Mulberry street bridge, the passageway be tween the Pennsylvania and Read ing station, and other points from which the movement of trains could be observed. The train bearing Com pany D to Camp Hancock, near Augusta, Ga., left this place shortly before 9 o'clock. Truck Company Goes Through Other troop trains bearing men from . Scranton and other points pulled into the yards as the Harris burg company was leaving. A large number of persons waited in the Pennsylvania depot hoping to get a glimpse of the Mount Gretna con tingent. Disappointment was great when it was learned that the men would not be permitted to leave their coaches. Many Organizations in Line Among the organizations partici pating in the big parade were: The G. A. R., City Grays' Veteran As sociation. Spanish-American War Veterans, Veterans of Foreign Wars, Sons of Veterans, Stevens Memorial Methodist Church Guards, Boy Scouts, Harrisburg Reserves. Cham ber of Commerce, Rotary Club, B. P. O. Elks, Loyal Order of Moose, Dives, Pomeroy & Stewart, Bowman & Company, Kauffman, Doutrlch's, Harrisburg Furniture Dealers' Asso ciation, William Strouse and The Globe. The Second division was headed by the Bteelton band, which had been engaged by the Furniture Deal ers' Association and which followed immediately after. The band was preceded by ten proprietors of va i nous stores of the organization. Marching with the furniture deal ers were 1,500 representatives of the following stores Rotherts Company, Burns & Company, Gately & Fitz gerald, Goldsmith, B. Handler, Miller & Kades, Brown & Co. Marshals and Aids The following persons had charge of the parade: E. C. Humer, chief marshal. Aids, 13,000 NURSES TO ! LOOK AFTER U.S. INJURED ABROAD I !

Aug. 21.—After forty-three years spent in the Arkan sas penitentiary at Little Rock, Jos eph F. Jones has returned here to pick up the thread of life that was broken when he was sent to prison. When a young man Jones went to Arkansas to work on a farm. He met and loved the daughter of the farmer who employed him. The girl had another adm( er, who was the son of a wealthy farmer. He did not relish the intrusion, quarreled with Jones and fought a knife duel with him at the gate of the girl's home. When the fight ended Jones' rival was dead. After a hasty trial Jones was con-I victed of murder in the first degree j and sent to prison for life. After forty-three years his case was laid before the Governor. A pardon was granted. Old man Jones walked out of the prison. The girl for whom he had fought had never married, but she had long since been dead. Penniless, Jones walked from Little Rock to Owensboro. No one re membered him. He is a stranger in his own home town.

HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH MAN WHO STOLE J RELATES STORY [Continued from First I'agc.] held for court in the suip of $5,000. He is now confined In the Dauphin l county Jail. I For three weeks one of Plnker ; ton's beat detectives has been In this , : section. Every move of Shoemaker | j has been known, and It Is not un j likely that other employes of the Pipe Bending Works have been un der observation, for the famous de tective agency is no respecter of per sons. Flees From llis Conscience Shoemaker left this city, went to Mt. Gretna and after a short stay there became a fugitive from the jus tice that he felt would sooner or later , overtake him. For almost two weeks i he prowled about in daytime and ! slept in barns at night. At one time he was hiding in the woods while the detective was watching his every move from a strip of woodland ad joining. Then, still pursued by his con science, the young man prepared a statement which he mailed to the employers from whom he had stolen the money. He returned to his rooms at 813 North Second street and was placed under arrest by Detective Shuler. Then followed one of the most remarkable confessions that has ever been secured by the Pinkerton people. The manuscript copy covers sixteen closely typed pages, compris ing almost 10,000 words, and tells of the life of the young man from the time of his birth to the present time. Did Not Fall Shoemaker is the son of an hon ored minister of the gospel, and was born at Cressona thirty-eight years ago. When quite young his family moved to Mt. Carmel. When the hoy was 17 years of age he attended a law school, and later enrolled In another school of law, but did not complete his course. He was at one time employed by Thomas M. Reigh ter and Company, at Mt. Carmel, and during his stay In their office more than SIBO,OOO passed through his hands, but the temptation to take money that was not his never both ered him. At the age of 24 he secured a po sition with the Harrlsburg Pipe and Pipe Bending Company. Certain He Was Safe Shoemaker took the money to the cellar and concealed it under a piece of burlap, but said nothing to Mrs. Conrad of the theft. At the office the next day there was a great deal of talk about the missing bills, but the billing clerk felt confident that he was not suspected. Desiring to get Mrs. Conrad out of the way until the affair blew over, he went to the cellar and stripped five bills from the pile. Giv ing her the money, he told her to take a trip which had been pre viously contemplated, to Philadel phia. When asked where he had gotten the money, he replied that he had received a raise in salary, but of this Mrs. Conrad seemed skeptical. On Saturday Shoemaker's con science gave him so much trouble that he determined to get rid of the money, but he had no thought of returning it to his employers. He drank at several places, and when considerably under the influence of liquor, went home and threw the bills into the coal bucket, thinking that he would burn the money in the furnace. Changing his mind, he took a piece of the burlay, and using It for a wrapper, formed a compact pack age of the bills. He tied the pack age securely with twine, and as an afterthought slipped a monkey wrench weighing perhaps a pound ' beneath the cord. 1 The bills formed a package slight ly larger than an ordinary building brick. Taking the package under his arm, he started for the river. His dog followed him. Pinkerton Men Arrive Above Market street he tossed the money Into the river. It did not sink at once, but floated a distance of ten ' or twelve feet. The dog leaped after I the package, and missed It by but a few feet. During the week following, Pink erton detectives were called to Har risburg and took over the case. Em ployes of the Pipe Bending Works were interviewed, and although Shoemaker's vacation was to have started July 30, he was requested to appear at the office on the morn ing of that day for a further ex amination. Fear Rules Him Fear ruled his movements from that time on. He went to Mount Gretna and later mailed his confes sion. The detectives were not at all certain that the money had been dis posed of in the manner described by Shoemaker, so he was closely watched. Upon his return to Harrlsburg, the former clerk was put through a grilling by the Pinkerton man, and after eleven hours he freely con fessed everything declaring that he desired to conceal nothing. Shields Woman Mrs. Conrad, It Is said, was al most prostrated when she learned of the confession, and throughout his statement Shoemaker makes It plain that she had no part in the affair. Not only In the confession but afterwards at the hearing and at the jail, the accused man endeav ored to ahleld her In every way possible. Moves to Farm He proved a valuable employe, and was sent to the Wharton School of Commerce In Philadelphia for special in'sft-uctlon covering his du ties. Upon his return here he took up a night course, and desiring a quiet place to room he answered an advertisement and secured a room with Mrs. Pearl Conrad, at 110 North Second street. The pair became In timate, and Shoemaker paid liber ally for the comforts he received. A year or so ago, deciding that he would like to be a farmer, the young man purchased a farm near Shlremanstown. He moved to his farm, Mrs. Conrad accompanying him. He spent considerable money for farm implements and for repairs, but his salary was ample to cover all expenses. He came to Harrlsburg each day and continued his work as usual. Buys Second Farm After a time the farm was dis posed of, and the couple returned to this city, but the lure of the land again called to the young man, and he purchased another farm near the city. Shoemaker and Mrs. Conrad lived there until April 1 of this year, according to the confession, when they came to Harrisburg and rented an apartment or rooming house at 813 North Second street. The change was made necessary through losing the farm by fire. Although Shoemaker was earning a good salary and received a bonus of almost $2,000 per year, he went Into debt for furniture when he re turned to this place, the confession said. Dreamed of Money On Wednesday evening, July 18, according to Shoemaker's remark able confession, he dreamed that he was counting large stacks of paper currency. On the following morning the bill ing clerk was called Into the adjoin ing office to help verify the money for the payroll. Almost $50,000 was counted and checked, Shoemaker's duties being to verify the stacks of one dollar bills. The work was com pleted and the billing clerk IRREGULAR CHANGES FEATURE DEALINGS Rails Show Some Relaxation From Recent Pressure; Oils and Shipping Are Strongest Issue in Trading By Associated Press New York, Aug. 21 (Wall Street). — The usual irregular changes accom panied to-day's early dealings in the stoclc market, rails, however, showing some relaxation from recent pres sure, although New Haven fell one half a point to the new minimum of 32.

Aug. 21. Rarely has there been greater division of opinion in the highest official circles than exists to-day in regard to the Presi dent's probable answer to the Pope's proposal. He is receiving definitely opposed advice from his most intimate advisers, and each of the opposing groups is confident that its advice will be followed. Those who advocate re jection of the note are absolutely cer tain that the President's answer will be unfavorable to further negotiations or move by the Pope. They will not even admit that there is the slightest possibilty of a favorable reply. They continue to argue that the position which the President took at the en trance of the United States into the war makes rejection of the Pope's pro posal inevitable. about to return to his own office when the cashier was called from the room. Within a few feet of the young man's hand were two great packs of S2O bills, held in place by rubber bands. A quick glance convinced Shoemaker that he was not ob served, and acting upon the impulse of the moment he slipped a part of the bills from one stack. Jamming them Into a pocket he returned to his room, and placed the money In a drawer of his desk, covering the bills with a large envelope, he said in the confession. Only once did he leave the desk that morning, and that afternoon, after making certain that'no one was present to see, he slipped the money into his pockets. During the after noon a bookkeeper remarked to hint that the account was about $5,000 short, but attributed the shortage to an error made by the adding ma chine. Always Trusted During all the years that Shoe maker has been in the office of the Pipe Bending works, he has 1 - • ;i en trusted with large responsibilities, and until he yielded to temptation a month ago, he has always proven faithful to his charge. That the ab sence of family ties and the Influence of a fair face have been factors in his undoing there can be no doubt. Shoemaker had never been a drink ing man in the ordinary sense of the term, and the only time that he was intoxicated, according to his confes sion, was when he desired to rid him self of the money secreted in the cellar of the house. When questioned about Shoe maker's life, his employers stated that they had reposed every confi dence In the young man. They knew that he was not married, they said, and despite some apparent irregu larities in his mode of living, they considered him absolutely trust worthy. At the Dauphin county Jail, Shoe maker's principal concern seemed to be regarding Mrs. Conrad, that she should be kept out of the affair as much as possible. Small Hope of Re<-overy The authorities entertain little hopes of recovering the lost bills, which to the average man would mean a small fortune. At the point described by Shoemaker the Is swfft, and It Is probable that the precious package now lies at the bot tom At the river, many miles from this place.

Steelton Precinct Is Having Difficult Time Finding Polling Place Residents of the Third Precinct, Third Ward, Steelton, are worried these days, not about the war, but about the appointment of a judge of elections, and the finding of a poll ing place. I'ame Fortune hasn't been smiling so kindly on the voting district in the lower end borough. Recently the polling place at 13:! Main street was destroyed by tire. But the worst came later when John Husic, a Dem ocrat. and Judge of elections, removed from the precinct. Iluslc and Charles H. Rider are the .only two registered Democrats In the precinct. Rider is already an officeholder as he was elected assessor. The law requires that when the court appoints a successor in a county voting dis trict. he must be of the same party as the person whose place he takes What is worrying the voters now is can be named judge of elections.
