    INCREASE TIME
TO CONTRACT FOR
WASTE REMOVAL
•
Council Amends Ordinance
Asking Bidds For Collec
tion of Garbage
Because of an amendment to the
ordinance authorizing the health bu
reau to advertise for bids for the col
lection of garbage, llnal action will
not be taken by Council until next
Tuesday. The amendments change the
time for which the contract is to be
let from one year to fifteen months
iind provide that the specifications
prepared by the board of health must
be approved by Council.
With the final passage of the ordi
nance practically assured, the health
department will begin at once the
preparation of its specifications so
that no deloy will result in getting
bids, drawing up a contract and pro
viding for a continuation of this
1 ranch of the waste collection and
disposal work.
Council also passed the following
ordinances finally: Providing one
way traffic northbound in Kivor
street, between Market and Straw
berry streets; authorizing the placing
of a number of electric arc and 60-
eandlepower street lights; providing
lor the purchase of an auto truck for
the. water department; increasing the
salary of the assistant city chemist
and authorizing the laying of water
pipe in l'axton from Sixteentli to Sev
enteenth streets.
Plans for the collection und dis
posal of ashes by the city will be
made and presented to Council by
the health bureau it was decided last
evening at a conference held by the
two bodies.. That municlpa'l control
of collections will be provided was
practically assured, every one at the
conference favoring this plan as the
only one which will give efficient re
sults.
Xo Curb Collections
Curb collections will not be re
quired, it was understood. Realiz
ing the public opposition which
would be sure to follow any effort to
reuqire this in Harrisburg. both the
city commissioners and the health
bureali last night said they would
not consider this method as the ulti
mate saving for the city would not
be a gain because of the filthy condi
tions which would exist on the
streets by placing ash and garbage
cans along the curb.
It was decided to have Council
amend the ordinance asking bids for
garbage collection, so that it will
cover a period from February 1,
191S, to May 1, 1919. The health
bureau will begin preparing specifi
cations for the bidders, and the
awarding of a contract.
Discuss Garbage Disposal
Part of the time during the con
ference was devoted to a discussion
of the best system for garbage dls-

posal, but it was decided to postpone
any further action on this question
until the ash problem was disposed
of.
City commissioners estimated that
the city can not pt-pperly equip for
in- nlcipul ash collections In less than
ninety duys, and the health burea.u
was asked to start at once outlining
a plan for this work so that all neo
essary legislation can be prepared
and passed in time to provide for the
Installation of the system.
Favor District Plan
Officials agreed that additional
regulations may be necessary and
must bo enforced. The plan of di
viding tlie city into six districts was
favored. This was originally the sys
tem used by the Pennsylvania Re
duction Company-but was not main
tained.
According to Dr. J. M. J. Raunlck
the ash collection problems would
never have btarted had the reduction
company been successful in carrying
out this plan.
The six districts as proposed last
night were: Two on Allison Hill
from Cameron street west to the city
line, probably using Market street .as
the dividing line; one district from
Market street south to the city line
and Cameron street east to the Sus
quehanna river; three districts from
Market street north to city limits and
between the river and Cameron
street, to be divided into sections as
nearly equal as possible.
Under Superintendent
The proposed plan if adopted will
place the entire disposal system un
der the direction of a superintendent
who will district inspectors under
him, making daily reports, receiv
ing complaints and directing the
work of the men In his district. Ash
collections will be made twice a
week in winter, and once a week in
summer; garbage twice a week In
summer and once a week in winter.
Householders will probably be re
quired to keep ashes and rubbish
separated.
By letting a contract for garbage
collections for another year the com
missioners believe ample opportunity
will be given to study the best and
cheapest method of disposing of this
waste. v

fused. The number of has
been thus greatly reduced and many
more of them are expected to report
before the end of the week.
At the board of the second district
the work of sending notifications to
the men that have been summoned
on the third call is nearly finished.
These men are asked to report next
Monday and will be examined at the
rate of fifty per day. IJhis board re
ports that in the cases of the seventy
nine men that failed to report when
called, a wait of the usual ten days
will be made, and if the men fail to
put in appearance by that time they
will be accepted and certified. Their
names will be sent to the appeal
board where they will be entered on
the roll of the United States Army
and classed as deserters. It was
also learned that out of the first 317
men examined in this district, only
six (lied appeals from the decision
of the local board. These men claim
ed various reasons for exemption.
Their cases wll be sent to the appeal
board.
Exempt Married Men
The draft board of the third dis
trict of Dauphin county with head
quarters at Eiliabethvllle, on Tues
day established a precedent for
Dauphin county, when with one
swoop forty-three married men who
had been passed physically (it were
exempted on the grounds of depend
ants. This Is the record exemption
for the county. It was a sort of a
demonstration gift to those married
men who claimed exemption, and
when the news spread among the
large crowd that had gathered for
the big celebration, there was great
rejoicing among the wives of the
men.
When asked why they made such
a wholesale exemption the board is
reported to have acted on their own
discretion. They were advised that
if they thought the wife of a man
was sufficient ground for exemption
It could be granted. This the board
did with one big blow.
Examine 56
■ Besides exempting all these men,
the board also examined llfty-slx
men. Of this number five failed to
appear, thirty-three passed; nine
asked exemption; twenty-two were
rejected and twenty-three asked ex
emption.
The following is the result of the
examination Tuesday:

emption: Spurgein H. Bingaman,

"We have heard from all of the
boards which have been ordered to
start men to the mobilization camps
this Week," said Col. Frank G.
Sweeney, officer In charge of the
draft headquarters to-day. "In some
cases 1 have been advised that men
have been started to Camps Lee and
Sherman. The movement will begin
to-day and continue until the tenth,
Inclusive. We have received no defi
nite information as yot regarding
movements of men to Camp Meade,
scheduled to begin on the nine
teenth."
From what has been learned at
the headquarters the movement on
the nineteenth will depend upon tho
condition of the cantonment at Camp
Meade.
Drafted men cannot pick the can
tonment to which they must go, ac
cording to a teloaram received at
State draft lieadqnarters from Pro
vost Marshal General Crowder. They
may make application to be sent to
a camp, but local boards must In
vestigate carefully such applications
and only allow them when by reason
of men being at long distances such
action would be advisable for other
good and sufficient causes.
Notice was also issued that the
Marine Corps would recall a state
ment to the effect that registered
men called by a local board could
enlist in the Marine Corps with writ
ten consent of the local board. "After
being called by a -local board no
registrant is eligible for voluntary
enlistment in any branch of the gov
ernment service," says the notice.
Local boards have been warned
that they should make certification
at the close of each day's business of
men called for duty. "Since this
certification constitutes the giving of
notice to registrants that they have
been selected for military service, it
should be made as promptly as pos
sible In order that each man may
have the maximum time to compose
his affairs before being ordered to
military duty," says another notice.
It is also given out that until word
comes that camps are ready there
should be no further call to military
duty for the men summoned to go
on September 19 and October 3.
Pennsylvania will send fifty-seven
men to Camp Sherman says Colonal
Frank G. Sweeney. There will be
266 sent to Camp Lee.

the east of the present front In West
Flanders as far as the Thorout-
Courtrai line, embracing an area of
some 200 square miles.
One theory advanced for the re
ported evacuation is that the German
command, dreading the effect of the
next drive is preparing to flood the
lowlands by diverting water from
the river Scheldt, thus blocking al
lied progress. Another supposition is
that the Germans lacking the men to
hold the present lines firmly enough
are preparing for another strategic
retreat.
Russian Women Soldiers
Throw Selves Into Thick
of Battle to Shame Men
London, Sept. 5. —The press bureau
i" a semiofficial Russian communica
tion says in part:
"The catastrophe at Riga was not
wholly unexpected; measures for the
evacuation of the littoral of the gult
were taken before the passage of the
Germans across the Dvina near Ux
kull. Artillery of heavy caliber on
permanent explacements was thrown
out of position during the last week.
After the Dvina was forced the order
v as given to expedite the evacuation
of Riga. A train with wounded left
under German artillery fire.
*The Russian troops withdrawing
from Riga are holding up the enemy's
pressure. Several units have shown
exceptional valor, repulsing Germari
counterattacks with the bayonet. Thu
First Battalion of Death (composed of
wemen) particularly distinguished it
self, throwing itself Into the melee at
the most critical moment and throw
ing back and pursuing the enemy
nearly three kilometers in spite of
the losses It had sustained. The ex
ample set by the battalion inspired
the other units. General Novltsky
personaly directed the attacks."

district. More bombs appear to have
fallen in the streets than hit build
ings. The Chronicle estimates, that
eight or ten raiders visited London.
Two Attacks
There were two separate attacks
over the London district, the second
occurring about 1 o'clock this morn
ing. Sotne people claim to have seen
a half dozen airplanes but they were
quickly lost sight of in tl haze.
After dropping bombs the raiders
llew seaward.
One machine was located by seacli
lights at an estimate height of 9,000
feet. It was severely shelled and on
lookers declare It was hit. At the
same time British airplanes were
seen maneuvering for attack on the
raiders.
"Has Germany got her great air
offensive ready before ours?" is a
question asked by a morning paper
apropos of the invasion of England
on three successive nights, and Field
.Marshal Haig's ovennight report of
aggressive enemy aircraft. Another
paper, which assumes and frequently
warns of Germany's intention to in
vade England with aircraft in very
large fleets says:
Germans Move Fast
"The enemy seems to be getting
on rather with invasion plane.
The German aircraft came, bombed,
and departed. Our guns fired and
our aircraft went up but without re
sult, according to the latest official
reports. This is the ninth serious
raid this summer and of 127 ma
chines which have crossed our coast
Germany only admits the loss of
seven."
The paper refers to the growing
casualty list and the relative immu
nity of the invaders and adds:
"It cannot be said that we are
gettiqg on with our invasion plans
faster than the enemy."
British Drop Many Tons
of Explosives on German
War Centers in Belgium
London, Sept. s.—Many tons of
bombs have been dropped in further
raids oi) German military establish
ments 1% Belgium, causing large fires.
The admiralty to-day gave out the
followingaccount of these operations:
"At midnight on the third instant
a bombing raid was carried out by
naval aircraft on the Bruges dock,
the Varssenaere airdome and the
Ghistelles airdrome. Many tons of
explosives were dropped with good
results.
"A second raid on the Bruges dock
was made a noon, September 4. Di
rect hits were observed on special
targets. Many sheds along the quay
side were hit, and large fires which
were causad were still" seen to be
burning when the machines recrossed
the line. All our machines returned
from both raids.
"On Monday afternoon, the third
instant, an enemy aircraft was en
gaged by one of our patrols and shot
down. An enemy kite balloon also
was attacked and the observer was
forced to jump out.
"Owing to the antiaircraft fire, the
fate of the balloon was not observed."
"Tim" O'Leary Charged
With Stealing Chickens
"Tim" O'Leary, -who in times past
has received more than his sharo
of attention from the police depart
ment because of his propensity for
beifig arrested on charges of
drunkenness, is now facing a more
serious charge, and it is probable
that he will be held for court upon a
charge of stealing.
Mrs. Andrew Kuble, of Shaffer
alley, alleges that "Tini," when the
desire for drink was strong upon
him, took three of her chickens. The
chickens, it is claimed, were pawn
ed to procure money with which to
satisfy "Tim's" desire for liquid re
freshments.
Although O'Leary has been before
the police court many times, tills is
the first time he has been charged,
with stealing.
