4 CHIEF WETZEL APPROVES SHOW police Executive Says He Found Nothing Objection able at Burlesque Show That the burlesque show which ap peared here yesterday afternoon and last evening at a local theater was not objectionable and that the police department would refuse to permit an Indecent performance, was the state ment made to-day by Chief of Police J. E. Wetzel, as a reply to the report that suggestive performances were being staged with no opposition. Acting Mayor William B. Gorgas stated it was a question entirely for tlie police to handle and that should any show exhibit iieje which was not lit to be shown, charges should he brought against the department for permitting it. Chief Wetzel, in his statement, said: "\Ve keep a close watch on these shows, and at once notify the man agement when there is anything ob jectionable presented. We have had little trouble and few complaints. I was told of the stage being extended Into the audience and have issued an order that this not not to be done again. When I heard that an investi gation was to be made, I personally attended last night, and found noth ing objectionable. In fact, some of the comic operas and mimical come dies which have been shown here have been much worse."

Public Service Helps Car Distribution The Public Service Commission's bureau of rates and tariffs to-day'ls sued tlie following notice relative to action just taken In regard to car distribution: "AH an aid to relieve the difficulties at the bituminous coal mines caused by insufficient cars for shipment be ing available, the Public Service Com mission has granted the coal-carrying railroads authority to amend the 'car distribution rules' effective immedi ately, to permit the at-signment of box cars to mines regardless of the num ber of coal-carrying cars supplied, und not to be charged In the distribu tions. This practice will be carried out only for west-bound shipments of coal and is designed to make use of boxcars which are now moving west empty for the grain movement east, which is very heavy at this time of the year. It will also enable the coal operators to increase the output of coal, which will relieve not only the markets in the west, but will also have a beneficial influence on coal supplied in the east, in that it will conserve coal-carrying cars to this traffic which might otherwise be nec essary for coal moving in other di rections."

HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH RAILROAD RUMBLES MORE CARS FOR ALL RAILROADS Since April the Shortage Has Been Reduced Nearly Eighty Per Cent. ' New York, Sept. 14. Reports made by all the railroads of the coun try to the American Railway Associ ation show that on September 1 the excess of unfilled orders for cars in some parts.of the country over sur pluses of cars In other places was 31,591, a reduction of 14 per cent., compared with- the previous month. In the latter part of April, when the railroads' war board was organ ized to co-operate with the Govern ment in all matters of the roafls af fecting the conduct of the war, there was an excess of unfilled car re quisitions over surpluses amounting to 148,627 cars. As it was impossible to create cars over night, not to mention locomo tives, terminal facilities, tracks and other facilities Just as badly needed, the war board directed its first ef forts at obtaining greater use of the facilities which existed, mainly freight cars. To Help Government The object was to more nearly take care of all the orders of the Govern ment and shippers as well. Railroads were instructed to do things within their own province which would in crease the efficiency of equipment, and at the same time to get the co-oper ation of shippers, consignees and com mercial bodies. The success of the combined efforts of State and Federal regulative lilies, shippers, commer cial organizations, the railroads, with seasonable weather, may be seen from the fact that, while the railroads have with practically no increase in facilities handled the greatest amount of freight in their history in the past four months, the excess of unfilled car orders was cut down from 148,627 on May 1. to 106,649 on June 1, to 77,682 on July 1, to 37.- 062 on August 1 and to 31,591 on September 1, thus achieving an lm i—--anient in four months of 78 per cent. / Pennsy Clerk Dies on French Battlefield Altoona.

NEW YARDS CAUSING GOSSIP Officials Tell Why Tracks Cover Much Ground; An Expensive Improvement Work on the new classification, and storage yards of the Pennsylvania i Railroad on vhe Columbia branch is ] being rushed. This improvement when completed will extend from | west of Marietta to Columbia. A | total of $3,000,000 will be expended I on the improvement, which is ex- • pected to be partially In operation | by January 1. Officially it has been announced | that these yards are being built to relieve the congestions at Marysville and Epoia. However, there Is a wide spread rumor that this big improve ment will include something more than classification yards. Tracks Cover Wide Area Tracks now being put down, are 70 feet apart. Considerable expense has been incurred in cutting away the big rocks and hills. Why this Is being done, when more desirable lanil, it is said, could be had several hundred feet west, is causing much gossip. It is said that west of the present location, of the head of the new yards it would not have been any necessity for cutting away big rocks. Officials Explain Officials claim there Is nothing In the rumors about it being storage yards for the Bethlehem Steel Com pany. The present plans for laying tracks, it is said, will allow the use of the tracks now down while other tracks are being placed in position In the opening spaces. It is the de sire to get the new yards in opera tion as soon as possible. A total of twenty miles of tracks will be put down running as far east as Colum bia. The railroad company pur chased 500 acres of ground from H. S Rich, Marietta. Railroads Make Appeal to Farmers to Ship Grain Every Pennsylvania railroad man who goes to France with the Army, who joins the Marine Corps, or en lists in the Navy, will, from time to time—probably as often as once a month—receive from another Penn sylvania railroad man, at home, a package of tobacco and cigarets. Each package will contain a self addressed postcard from the em ploye whose contribution provided the gift. This arrangement has been made possible by the establishment of tliCi Pennsylvania Railroad Tobacco Fund, similar to that of the Har-1 risburg Telegraph. More than 2,500 employes of the lines east of Pitts burgh have already enlisted. Some of them are in France now; others are on their way; the remainder are preparing to go. The object of the fund is to maintain personal con tact, and the spirit of fellowship, between those who go and those who stay. A campaign has been organized on every division and in every depart ment of the general offices. The headquarters of the fund are at rooip 351, Broad Street Station. J. K. Linn, attached to. the staff of the superintendent of telegraph, has been appointed treasurer. Railroad tobacco Fund in Charge of J. K. Linn Philadelphia, Sept. 14.—Fairfax Harrison, chairman of the railroads Avar board, authorizes the follow ing: "We are assured that the price of wheat determined by the President will be maintained throughout the! year by the Food Administration and that there can be no objective in holding wheat. In fact, the farmer saves interest and deterioration by marketing early. "At the present- tim the rail ways can handle more wheat to storage points for ready distribution and to mills to be manufactured, into flour for domestic consumption and exportation to our allies, where it is much needed and for which ships are available at ports. The railways wish to appeal to the farm ers to bring their wheat to market now. Later in the fall the handling of more products will cause con gestion and delays." Railroad N6tes E. E. Stacks, clerk at DE office left to-day for Chicago. He will be absent two weeks. A. A. Stacks has joined the signal department forces of the Pennsylva nia Railroad. Fred Lupfer, engineer on the Pitts burgh division will be the guest on Sunday of a number of Middle divi sion employes at Losh's Run. Trains from the west were off schedule this morning due to trou ble west of Pittsburgh. Robert Jones, a flagman on the Philadelphia division, is nursing a broken left collarbone. He was thrown against the sldo of his cabin at Columbia. C. F. Thomas, freight brakeman on the Baltimore division of the Pennsy is off duty on account of illness. H fHKGO HH A Qapita!
