Under an act passed last year hy the legislature, the city treasurer is required to send out notices two mpriths earlier, as the time for pay ment of the assessment has been changed. Under the new law a one per cent abatement is allowed tax payers making a remittance during March and April, instead of May and June as under the old law. The full amount of the tax is payable during May and .Tune, and on July 1 one per cent, is added and one per cent on the first of each additional month. Blanks to be used in fitting in these state ments to property owners must have the name of the city treasurer print ed on them. It is not believed in councilmanic circles that any action will be taken to fill the post until the regular ses sion next Tuesday. The turn of af fairs caused by the statement of one of the commissioners has created wide discussion all over the city with the result that Council is now reported to bo looking for a capable businessman who has no political affiliations. Among the names more frequently mentioned are J. Clyde Myton, secre tary of the Motor Club of Harrisbgrg and widely known throughout tha city and vicinity by many business men, and Clarence E. Weber, clerk in the city treasurer's office. Many other names have been mentioned as pcssible candidates, but it is not likely any of the commissioners will express a preference until the open meeting.

PENNSY SEEKS BLANKET POWER To Ask Stockholders For An-* thority to Borrow Money as Needed That the Pennsylvania Rajlroait' management proposes to be pre pared to raise money when per mitted under the new plan of gov ernment control, is indicated by tha announcement in the regular notice of the annual meeting to be held on March 12, at Philadelphia, at that time it is said there will be sub mitted "for consideration and action by the stockholders and increase of the Indebtedness of the company to be made when and as prescribed by; the directors." In the past, when conditions werei normal, the company required around $25,000,000 each year to pay for new equipment, construction and betterments, which Is about naif the sum usually required for the entire Pennsylvania system, but this year conditions are such that the stock holders are to be asked for general authority instead of being called upon to authorize a stipulated in crease of the Indebtedness, so that the management may act as Direc tor General McAdoo shall order as* regards any increase. Average Expenditure Before the Interstate Commerce Commission last November President Rea stated that the average expendi ture for road and equipment of the entire Pennsylvania system for tho past 17 years was $53,000,000, arid, that very much more would be needed this year if the system were to adequately perform its functions. He also stated that there still was left $26,000,000 of the proceeds of bonds sold last spring. It also is set forth in the annual meeting notice that there will bo submitted for action of the stock holders agreements for the acquisi tion by the company of the fran chises, corporate property, rights and credits of the Cornwall & Leb anon Railroad Company, and of the Susquehanna, Bloomsburg & Berwick Railroad Company, subsidiaries of the Pennsylvania Railroad. Such acquisition is in furtherance of the policy of consolidating the various parts of the Pennsylvania system and simplifying the corporate or ganization. • New Requisitions The Cornwall & Lebanon runs from Conewago, on the main line of the Pennsylvania, to Lebanon, and with Its branches has a total length of 26.44 miles.
