VEDEN NOT TO

elite Hopes People Will
Force Change in Gov
ernment
ndon, Sept. 11. —The following
finent from an authoritative
ce was made to The Associated
s with reference to the revela
s concerning Sweden
here is no need for any action on
part of the allies regarding the j
lish exposures, nor is any action.
or otherwise, contemplated. The ,
i narrated speak for themselves, i
his is not a case of any quarrel i
te part of the allies with the Swed- 1
>eople, but of individual action by
"idual officials, which, it is con- i
tly believed, will be strongly re- ,
;d by the Swedish people. There
l>e no doubt that Sweden will tako
earliest opportunity to explain ]
position and this, it is hoped, will

rstanding.

Argentina Not Yet Ready
to Act on Treachery
By Associated Press
I Buenos Aires. Sept. 11.—News dis
j patches to the effect that the pass
ports may be handed to the German j
and Swiss diplomatic representatives
to Argentine are declared by the for- i
elgn minister to be premature, as tho '
government Is unable* even to con-
aider such a procedure until it re- '
• reives official details respecting the !
j Washington revelations.
| An Argentine patriotic society has;
issued a statement urging that Count
Luxburg must not be given his pass- !
J ports, but tried for a criminal of- j
fense of inciting the assassination of !
| Argentine citizens. This action is lm- j
j possible, however, as diplomatic rep
i resentatives are immune from court
I summonses.
Swedish Foreign Office
Awaits Further Details

fly Associated Press I
London. eSpt. 11.—The Swedish for-j
t eign office, according to a dispatch J

tions opened up by these statements."!

Hear* School Suit.
Argument in the suit brought by
residents in Paxton. a village in i'p- '
per Paxton township, against the
school district, was heard today by ,

FLOUR AND SUGAR
WILL TAKE DROP
IN PRICE SOON
Government Promises Saving
of Three Dollars a Barrel
on Former Commodity
Washington, Sept. 11. Definite
j price decreases to the ultimate con
j suiner wore officially announced by
i the food administration to-day.
These will result from the co
! operative regulation of grain, flour
and sugar, which has now reached a
; st.-.ge that makes the regulation of
wheat effective to-day, with flour
I regulation to follow shortly, and the
j control of sugar to become effective
j October 1.
A saving of $3 a barrel on flour
I over the average price of the last
four months Is promised the con
sumer as soon as the flour from
wheat sold under the new control
i plan reaches market.
A slight drop in sugar has already
occurred. By October 1. when con
| trol becomes complete, a further re
| duction of $1.60 below the mtd
. August price is expected.
The saving to the American people
! in the lowered cost of flour is esti
mated at $30,00,000 a month, these
figures being based on a normal
monthly flour consumption in this
i country of 10.000,000 barrels. The
saving to follow in sugar is placed at
$9,000,000 a month, representing a
20 per cent, decrease below mid-
August figures, or 2 cents a pound
under the price then prevailing.
Steps ahead in the food situation
! comprise a consideration of the ques
i tion of the standard loaf of bread for
war time. This was taken up at the
meeting of the war emergency coun
cil of the master bakers of the coun
tr> ;n Washington, which began its
sessions to-day.

HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH:
RAILROAD RUMBLES
COAL BUSINESS
SHOWS INCREASE
Reading Has Another Record
Sunday at Rutherford
Yards
With the shipment of large quan
tities of hard coal over the Reading
system to eastern points, this week
is expected to bring new records in
number of cars handled. For the
first time in many weeks anthracite
shipments are being made to Head
ing, Philadelphia. Trenton and other
points. In addition to this increase
in freight the Heading is also hauling
large quantities of soft coal.
Miui.v Sunday Trains
On Sunday the Philadelphia and
i Reading Railway Company handled
a total of 19,000 cars on its system
This included in rount' figures 4.000
cars out of Rutherford yards en route
eastward over the Harrisburg and
Lebanon Valley divisions, 2,000 cars
were taken over the East Penn and
6,000 cars over the main line system.
Other branches were kept busy with
trains hauling from forty to sixty
cars.
The Reading has been short of
motive power, but notwithstanding
kept the trains moving without a
hitch. Sunday is always made a
special day for clearing up freight
yards, as a number of passenger
trains are not running and fast time
is made. '

BIG EEL STOPS
PENNSY TRAINS
Gets Into Pipes at Lewistown
Pumping Station; Call
For Plumbers*
One largo eel came nearly tieing
up traffic completely on the Middle
division of the Pennsylvania rail
road on Sunday. It clogged up the
automatic pump at Lewistown Nai
rows watering station. Calls were
made for plumbers in this city, Mtf
flin, Lewistown and Huntingdon.
In the meantime trains using the
water trough at this point were
obliged to stop from 20 to 30 min
utes and water tanks in order to be
able to keep up steam. This upset
schedules. Fast freight trains wero
also held up and it was slow moving
for time, to keep the main line open,
largest Ever Caught
H. O. Elder of Mifflin, was the life
saver. He worked for an hour be
fore he found the trouble and started
the pumps. The eel, according to re
ports,. was the largest ever taken
from the Juniata river. It measured
thirty-eight inches in length and
weighed eight pounds. No person
has been able to explain how the
eel got into the~Tpipes. There is a
fine mesh wire screens covering the
intake pipes and unless there la a
break in the screen nothing larger
than a needle could get through.
This water trough is one of the
most important on the Middle divi
sion. All fast trains take water "on
the fly" running about forty-five
miles an hour, and when they are
obliged to stop for water at a tank
it means a costly delay to all trafllc.
Pennsy Pensioner Has
Long Service Record
|l

i 1866. being mustered out at Phila

He entered the Pennsylvania rail
road service on June 10. ig6, as
I brakeman, and was made freight

lations.
