12 RAILROAD RUMBLES NEW PLAN FOR R. R. INSURANCE Similar to That For Soldiers Now in Army; Pcnnsv Liabilities Officials of the Pennsylvania and Reading Bailroads are taking meas ures to ascertain the provisions of the Government's plan to establish a national insurance fund to cover prop erty and other losses sustained by railroads. As contained in announcements from Washington, the plan originated in the department of Director Gen-1 eral McAdoo. As one of the econo- 1 mies for Government operation of the roads a proposal for the creation ' of a national fund for railroad in surance similar to that for insuring soldiers is being given consideration. Indications that this purpose has reached a definite point were recent ly contained in Mr. McAdoo's notice to all lines that they refrain from renewing insurance contracts with commercial companies to run longer than one year. Already Injured So far as the Pennsylvania and Reading lines are concerned, each ot these roads has maintained its own insurance department for a number of years. The Pennsylvania started a fund in 1579. In the meantime this fund has grown to $9,000,000. The Reading's fund approximates $1,000.- 00U. The question the railroads are seek ing to settle is what tile disposition of this fund is to be in the event ot the Government including all roads in the national plan. Should these roads be taken into the Federal pro gram. the money, it is contended, should revert to the general funds of the roads to be credited to the sur plus account. On the other hand, be- 1 lief is expressed that an exception may be made where roads do their own insuring. I'fnn}' I, lability The Pennsylvania carries a liability of 1.000,000,000, divided into 1400,000.- 000 for physical property and $600.- 000,000 for the risk of injury to pas ' sengers and employes. The insurance fund applies to the entire Pennsyl vania system, and the liability entire- , ly covers tile property of lines owned completelv. On lines where the com pany has" only a part o%vnership the insurance carried is in proportion to the degree of ownership. For the year 1917 the Pennsyl-1 vania deducted $3,003,700 from oper ating receipts for the insurance fund. The cotnpanv's payments aggregated $6,067,285. of which $2,039,833 was paid for passenger injuries and oth- , ers and $2,303,448 for loss and dam age of freight. In contrast to the Pennsylvania's method of carrying all its own insur ance. the Reading divides its respon sibility by maintaining a fund of. 51.000.000 and using commercial com panies to carry about $1,700,000. j Railroad Notes George W.

You Can't Afford to Save? How Do You Get That Way, Brother? In a Harrisburg store two volun tary Liberty Loan workers ap proached a clerk who makes $32 a week. "How many Liberty Bonds are you going to buy. Jack?" they asked him. "On the level, fellow," he replied, I simply can't afford to buy a bond this time." "What? You can't put a dollar a week into a Liberty Bond?" "Boys, on the level—l can't afford even a dollar a week." "You can't afford to save! How do you get that way, brother?"

At the special services there will he prayers for ultimate victory. There will be special music. The Honor Xlarch, as the Sunday afternoon procession will be called, will take place about 4 or 4.30 o'clock. The object of the march is to do honor to the soldiers from Harrisburg and Dauphin county, and for the first time, through a display of hundreds of service flags, Har risburg will get an idea of how many men it has sent to the front and to training camps. Church Service Flags As told, the clergymen of the city | will lead the procession. This in | eludes the clerics of every denomi nation. In the first division will come the | service Hags of churches and re- I ligious bodies. There will be no ' large bodies of marchers represent ing these organizations, but each l church or society will be permitted to send its service flag in the care of a bearer. In the second division will be the home service flags. These will be carried by a mother, a sister, the wife or nearest relative of the Har risburg boy in the Army or Navy. In the third division will be found the service flags of the clubs, lodges and fraternal societies generally. In every instance, only one person will be permitted in the parade with each service flag. At a point to be announced later a memorial service will be held. Schumann-Hcink Saturday While details of her appearance ! Saturday night have not been com- i pleted, Chairman Henderson Gil bert of the Liberty Loan "Stunts" Committee, announced last night I that Mme. Schumann-Heink is com ing to Harrisburg Saturday night ! and will appear in Chestnut Street i Auditorium on behalf of the Liberty j Loan. No admittance will be : charged. Mme. Schumann-Heink has a son | in the German Army and several sons in the American Army. Her hopes are with the Army of the United States of America. Liberty Loan Notes A mass meeting will be held to night at Elizabethville. at which one of the speakers will be a Canadian soldier who will tell of conditions on the battlefront. The Askln-Marine Company is one of the city firms In the hundred per cent class. Two other hundred cent*rs are C. F. Hoover Furniture Company and Hoover & Son, under takers. . The Rev. Mr. Musselman, of Mil tersburg; Commissioner H. M. Stine and a Canadian soldier will speak at a mass meeting to be held in Gratz to-night. A meeting in Loyalton to-night will also be featured by the pres ence of a Canadian soldier, as well as other speakers. Berrysburg had a rousing Liberty Loan meeting last night. Dwlght Clark was one of the speakers and a soldier from the Canadian forces told of what is going on in France and Flanders. Blaine had a rally last night. Lieu your money away,", they told him. "We're simply asking you to save $t a week for yourself—that's all. At the end of fifty weeks you have a SSO bond that will be worth $55 or S6O In five years. And in the .mean time you are getting 4V4 Per cant, interest. And you tell us—you have the audacity to stand there and look us in the eye as you tell us—that you 'can't afford' to save money." "I never thought of it that way." raid the clerk. "I'd been looking at this Liberty I.oan from the wrong angle. I see now where I'm not only helping the Government, but helping myself. Put me down for SIOO worth *>f bond." And they did. tenant W. T. McCallum, of the Cana dian forces, talked, as did Senator Scott Lei by.

Austrian Soldiers Torture; Terror in Invaded Italy Kalian Headquarters, April 16, (Delayed)— Terror reigns- through out the Italian territories occupied by Austria, according to unanimous reports made by the few civilians and soldiers who have succeeded in making their escape. The barbari ties committed by the invaders are so ghastly that they are impossible of description. At Feltre, some of these refugees report, a wife was torn from her husband by Austrian soldiers, who tied the man to a tree and half killed him with their rifle butts. Girls were subjected to the most awful outrages and tied naked to iron gratings outside the windows of their homes. At Vittorio the Austrians not only removed the bells from the church towers, but even the doors from the churches, while they trans formed the latter into stabtes. In every little village which the mili tary carts pass the Austrian troops helped by the Germans and Turks, throw from the windows mattress, pillows, sheets and furniture—every thing of value which can be re moved.

The feature of the target offering, which is the first one given, is the "bullet-proof lady," introduced by Captain Frank Leltel. After giving an amazing exhibition of marksman ship, Captain Leffel uses an Ariny rifle and shoots at close range di rectly at his assistant. The result is startling and mystifying and the feat must be seen to be enjoyed. Those who are interested in magic may find some logical explanation of the trick. Mack and in "Milk and Melo dy," are go am variety entertainers and sure of aiplausc. Arthur Wil liams, Leigh DeLacy and C. Blanche Bice have one of the ordinary come dy sketches, billed as "Excess Bag gage." While some of the situations are sure to amuse the audience, the playlet is similar to others which have been presented in the city. Lew Pistel and O. H. Gushing are the boys who start things. Billed] as "The Stranded Minstrels," these two comedians have one of the most laughable offerings seen at the Ma jestic in weeks. • The introductory, "So it's come to this," is both origi nal and farcical and the antics and j jokes of this pair keep the audience in a constant uproar. Tom Brown's Musical Revue is an other of those fine musical acts which are being featured this season. Harrisburgers have had the oppor tunity during the last few months of enjoying some real musical treats and this'is even better than some com panies appearing earlier in the sea son. The feature is singing by Miss Marion Claire, said to have three distinct voices. Her demonstration by using the "Quartet" from "Rigo leito" is fine. Other numbers in clude a violin solo, saxaphone quar tet and a brass quartet of cornets and trombones. Others' in the act are Gus King and Misses Hazel Grif fin.

It is the story of a young college man who goes west to "look after his oil well and then has several thrilling experiences with his men and a gambler, from whom he wins a large sum of money and an es tate on fashionable Long Island. When he returns to look ovej- bis es tate he finds the daughter of the gambler there. After playing the part of the new chauffeur and her protector, everything ends happily. "The Turn of a Card" will be shown to-day for the last time. To-morrow William S. Hart, in "The Dawn Maker," will be the attraction.

One of the finest musical comedy casts ever as sembled in one company has been se cured by the Messrs. Shubert to handle th principal roles of the spec tacle. And this cast is most capably supported by a chorus of exceptional beauty and ability—a rare combina tion. It was selected from the very pick of the Winter Garden corps of heautiies, the choicest being elected to help make this attraction a real wonder show. And there is also the big scenic sensation without wluch a Winter Garden spectacle would not be complete. This time ■it is 'Oyer the Top." a timely war scene showing lan attack upon a German trench by a lleet of American airplanes and a com pany of Yankee lads. It is said to end with a scene that never fails to make the audience go wild with pa triotic enthusiasm. "The Floor Below."
