COAL IN SMALL
LOTS DISCUSSED
BY COMMITTEE
j
Hickok Fuel Administration
Consult-rs Important Prob
lem at Second Meeting
The second meeting of the
Dauphin Fuel Administration took
place this afternoon in the office of
"Walter P. Magulre. The meeting
was called by Ross A. Hickok, fuel
administrator, for the purpose of
settling a number of minor ques
tions that have confronted the com
mittee. Among other tilings that
were taken up were he matters of
the delivery of the coal in small
quantities to the minor consumer,
and the prices to be charged for
such lots.
The Retail Coal Dealer':? Asso
ciation sent representatives to the
meeting this afternoon to discuss
with the committee the questions
that will before if. Mr.
Hickok has stated his Intention of
working with the coal dealer, and
carrying on the duties of his office
with as little discord as possible. At
a meeting yesterday the Coal
Dealers' Association expressed their
intention of working with the fuel
administrator.
The fuel dictator has two mem
bers to appoint to his committee
yet, but is taking time to select men
who will be most useful to the or
ganization, Mr. Hickok stated to
day that in his opinion there ought
to be an accountant, or expert re
tail coal man, in case of trouble be
tween dealers and consumers, who
could, if necessary, go over the
books of the company, against which
any complaint is made. A number
of names will be considered, and
one or two men may be selectod
this afternoon.
The committee has had no trouble
as yet, Mr. Hickok says. The Huin
melstown Consolidated Water Com
pany ran out of coal this week and
appealed to the fuel administrator,
who supplied them during the crisis
with a carload of coal borrowed
from the Reading Company. Coal
has now been procured to last the
company a period of two or three
weeks, and arrangements for ade-1
quate shipments have beci made, j
Mr. Hickok said. I

ple Cross, which has for Its purpose
the bringing buck to America of all
1 1 United States soldiers who lose their
lives in France and along with many
other organizations will urge Con
-1 Kress to give the Purple Cross the
same recognition in the quartermas
ter's department as is given the Red
j Cross in the medical department of
i the Army.
| This action war. taken following a
i brilliant address by Dr. Eckels, of
i Philadelphia, director general of the
i Red Cross. The Purple Cross is urg
i ing that all bodies of soldier dead
be embalmed, both for sanitary rca-
I sons and as a matter of sentiment,
! and that they be returned to America
after the war.
| The whole movement" is hinged
about by red tape and strong public
! pressure will be required to get the

Physicians Increase Rates
For Medical Services
! At the meeting of tlie Dauphin
! Countv Medical Society, the price of
niPdic.il services were advanced by
the physicians of the county. The
1 Increased cost of drugs is the pnn
-1 oipal cause for the advances, doctors
say, and this, combined with the high
cost of living, the increased cost of
I instruments and anesthetics, has
made the new rates necessary. The
new rates follow: Seventy-five cents
i for office visits; "house visits, $1.50;
night visits, between 10 p. m. and 7
i a m., $2.50; calles during office hours,
1 SO cents additional; first visit as con
! suiting physician. $5, subsequent
: visits, $3; obstetrical services, sls;
I anaesthetics administered, $5. The
last four rates are the same as they
I were before. The now rates go into

New York State Will
Gain a Million Voters
by Suffrage Victory
By Associated Press
New York, Nov. B.—As tho re
sult of the sweeping victory for
woman suffrage in New York State
at Tuesday's election, it is esti
mated that the state will gain at
least one million new voters, 40'i,000
of whom will come from this city.
The women will be eligible to vote
at any election after January I
1918, when the amendment becomes
effective.
If the relative number of regis
trants to a precinct is maint'ilned in
Now York, it Is calculated that un
der woman suffrage there will be an
increase of about sixty per cent, in
the election precincts here. In 1916
the election expenses in New York
were approximately $1,600,000. With
the enfranchisement of women
about $1,000,000 more will be added,
according to estimates.
Prominent •suffragists to-day pre
dicted that the women vouid join
the old parties in the slate and
scoffed at the suggestion that a
woman's party would be formed.
Unless the Legislature takes some
action changing the requirements
that qualify voters, (foreign born
women who are married to citizens
may vote after a residence of one
year in the Htato, four months In
the county and thirty days in tho
election district. As tho law now
stands, It requires foreign born
women who ure not the wives of
citizens u live year residence or a
wait of two years, the .joriod for
securing naturalization if they shall
have ' been In the country three
years or more already.

First Men to Fall at
Battle Front Honored
by French Comrades
By Associated Press
With the American Army in
France, Wednesday, Nov. 7.—The
first three American soldiers killed
in the trenches in France to-night
are sleeping in French soil, honor
ed by the American Army and the
people and Army of France.
With a guard of French infantry
men in their picturesque uniforms of
red and horizon blue standing on one
side and a detachment of American
soldiers on the other, the flag
wrapped caskets were lowered into
the grave as a bugler blew taps and
the batteries at the front fired min
ute guns. As the minute guns went
oft the French officer commanding
the division in this section paid tri
bute to the fallen Americans. His
words, which were punctuated by
the roar of the guns and the whistle
of shells, touched both the French
and Americans. In conclusion he
said:
"Men! These graves, the first to
be dug in our national soil and but
a short distance from the enemy, are
as a mark of the mighty land we and
our allies firmly cling to in the com
mon task, confirming the will of the
people and the Army of the United
States to fight with us to a finish,
ready to sacrifice as long as is neces
sary until final victory ror the most
noble of causes, that of the liberty
of nations, the weak as well as the
mighty.
"In the name of the th di
vision, in the name of the Krencli
Army and in the name of Krance I
bid farewell to Private Enright, Pri
vate Gresham and Private Hay, of
the American Army."

SEEK NAME FOR
NEW SOCIETY OF
LOYAL WOMEN
Harrisburgers Asked to Send
Suggestions For War
Relief Workers
"From the Home to the Trench" is
the slogan of a brand new organiza
tion of Harrisburg. women, not yet
officially named, which was suggest
ed by the recent talk here of Ma
dame Schumann-Heink, and which, it
was planned to-day, shall include
nearly every family in the city and
county. The first meeting of this
embryo association which is intended
to carry a boy's home right to him
in the trenches or at camp was held
last Saturday at the home of Mrs.
William Jennings, 7 South Front
street. It resulted in tho appointing
of a committee on organization which
has already discovered, according to
reports made to Mrs. Jennings, that
the women of Harrisburg are delight
ed with the scheme and determined
to make a record here which will be
as famous as that furnished by Har
risburg in recruiting and enlisting.
This new move, which is very like
ly all over the country, has been
identified so far with the title,
"Daughters of 1017," but Mrs. Jen
nings said this morning that this
name had not been adopted and rhat
they were open to suggestions. To
this end the invitation is he-ewith
extended to every woman and girl in
the city to send a suggestion for a
title, the same to be mailed to Mrs.
William Jennings.
This new and novel organization
calls out a membership almost un
limited for it includes any woman
who has a relative in the war, a
relative no more distant than nephew
or niece. This means that member
ship is eligible to a grandmother,

It is to be understood, Mrs. Jen
nings pointed out, that this enter
prise is in nowise to compete with
the Red Cross or any othek - benevo
lent industry. On tho contrary it is
to be a "helper," but it is believed
that by interesting every woman who
has a relative in the great conflict
this association can cover a field rot
yet touched.
"I am not in position yet," said
Mrs. Jennings to give out the details
of what we expect to accomplish. It
will take a little time to arrange so
that we may not in any way conflict
with other societies. But this may
be taken for granted at least —we
will ask for no fees. We appreciate
that the call for funds has been
pretty severe and we have no desire
to overdo the thing. Furthermore
we do not want to take any funds
from any other work. But with the
co-operation that we plan and the
thorough canvassing by districts wo
count on arousing such a spirit of
generosity thnt the soldier boys will
get home and home comforts no mat
ter in what desperate plight thev
may be.
"The method for setting the name
of every woman relative in the city
will probably be a distinct registra
tion. That is to say we will open
branch offices in various parts of the
city, where any woman may tele
phone and leave particulars. There
will also be a scheme of canvassing.
1 do hope that we will get many *ug
gestions for a good name, because tho
name always helps. It shoul.J be a
j title that means something, means
Just what we intend to accomplish,
, to bring the home to the trenches."
