FOR CAR THEFTS
Pennsy Yardmen at Altoona
Charged With Stealing
Whisky
Altoona, May I".—Arrested on the
charge of breaking open boxcars and
stealing 126 quarts of bonded whis
ky, four Pennsylvania railroad
brakemen employed -in the Altoona
yard have been held for trial in the
federal court at Pittsburgh by United
States Commissioner Samuel I. Ston
er, of this city. The men accused
are: W. D. Downs, F. E. Curley, E.
Blair Hamilton and Charles A. Trout.
Each man fnrnished SI,OOO bail for
his appearance at court.
It is the first case of the kind In
this locality since the Federal Gov
ernment took over the operation of
the railroads. The arrests followed
investigations conducted by Lieu
tenant J. W. Springer, of the Pennsy
police, assisted by Taptain J. W. Car
roll and the men of the Middle divi
sion police department.
Took Forty Quarts
Downs is accused of taking forty
four quarts of whisky from a car
containing 1,000 cases. Curley is al
leged to have removed eighty-two
quarts from a car on April 3. Hamil
ton being implicated with Curley in
this offense, while on May 4 he is
alleged to have taken forty-four
quarts. Trout, it is charged, broke
open a car carrying forty cases of
whisky, taking eighty-two bottles.
As there has been considerable
stealing from freight cars for some
| time and it is now a felony, punish-
I able by Imprisonment for ten years,
for breaking open a car, the railroad
company has posted warning notices
to this efTect throughout the yards.
i The employes at the locomotive
and car shops of the Reading Rail
way Company received their pay for
the last half of April. The amount
of money distributed aggregated
about $150,000.
Instructions have been issued by
the superintendent of the
division of the Reading railway that
all freight conductors must ride on
the engine except in cases of emer
gency.
The Reading Railway Company has
fifty-six of its passenger coaches em
ployed in hauling the workmen to
and from Hog Island, Philadelphia.
I An official of the Reading Railway
I Company stated yesterday th*t the
J freight conditions in Philadelphia
| show a decided improvement. More
oars are being unloaded by the con
signees. The embargo on all freight
1 except perishable and Government
| material, however, is now in effect.

Women Will Not Stick;
Work Is Satisfactory
Women working on the railroads
would prove the best thing that ever
happened if they didn't get married,
says Walter Thayer, general coal
agent of the Pennsylvania railroad.
He says that out of the 7,000 wom
en now employed by the company
on its lines east of Pittsburgh, not
one has failed to make good.
"But they don't stick long enough,"
he said. "The railroads prefer to
pick for promotion those in the
ranks who have made good. If
women don't remain on their Jobs
long enough, the railroads will have
a hard time finding employes suited
for the big Jobs that are being
thrown open daily."
