Porr, a druggist, 14 7 North Front street, writes an interesting letter of his experience in active service on the front in France. The letter was written on July 13 and was received yesterduy by Philip Wadely, a friend. The letter in part follows; "On active service is right. At present, the service which "Jerry" gives us, in handing us our daily allowance of six and elgnt shells, is simply perfect. They say a fellow nets used to them. I have the first one to see who Is used to them. We are up now where they fall thick and fast. That is, 'somewhere in France.' "I don't know whether I told you, but we had a very nice trip through "Alerrie England," stopping over in several large towns. We have also been close enough to the Eiffel Towar to notice it. More I dare not tell. "We hav e traveled through France quite a bit. traveling by passenger, freight, automobile and foot—mostly foot. We have slept in all kinds cf billets, such as barns, townhalls, apple ochards. chateaus, and, while traveling, in boxcars. The boxcars are all marked "Homraes 36-40" and directly beneath "Cheveaux 8 en long." This means thirty-six to forty men or eight horses. At that, they are better than quite a few of the barns I have seen, in which some cf the men were billeted. We have been quite lucky in drawing billets, as we have only had to sleep in a tarn once, and it was just lilled with new hay. Phil, you are going to find an en tirely dift ent John W. if I ever get •"ack safely. I can eat anything now except onions. I can sleep on the ground with one thin blanket, or, better yet. with only a raincoat for cover, and have all kinds of bugs and ants crawl over me and never mind it. I have even gone ten days " ithout a bath or change of under wear, and go to sleep with my shoes and clothes on so regularly now that it is becoming a habit. I am not kicking about it. you under stand. but am only telling you what to expect. We all have to do it here. We realize that things cannot bo different and are willing to go on doing it. if it will help defeat "Fritz" finally. Things look pretty good from this side. We have no idea when the final scene will be staged or when the curtain will stop for the last time, but we are doing all we can and hoping that each battle will be the last. Sherman must have had a faint idea about war when he murdered that now famous sen tence, but I firmly believe that he was a very modest man. else he would have described it more fully. "We have had a couple of letters from Douglas Beidel, and the last we heard of him was a card from Aix-le-Baines. He certainly is lead ing an aristocratic life, traveling to these exclusive watering places. I am glad he got the rest, because I know he needed it. Keep up the good work and we will do'all we can to get back quicklv." Second Steelton Boy to . Get Wounded in France Charles Carricato, 325 South Third street, last evening received word from Adjutant Oeneral McClain that his nephew Silvatore Bernardo was severely wounded while in active ser vice in France. Bernardo is very well known ir. Steelton. being em ployed in the rail and structural mill of the local steel plant. His resi dence is at 327 South Third street. He is a member of the Highspire Band and the Steelton lodge. Loyal Order of Moose. A telegram receiv ed by Mr. Carricato reads as follows Deeply regret to inform you that it is officially reported that Pri vate Silva'oro Bernardo, Machine Gun Battalion, was severely wounded in action.

Huns Are Terrorizing Invaded Part of Italy Washington, Aug. 7.—Nameless atrocities are being committed by the Austro-Hungarian authorities upon the inhabitants of the occupied Ital ian territories as well as Italian pris oners of war. a dispatch to the Ital ian embassy yesterday states. "An Italian prisoner who escaped to the Italian lines describes the ter rible treatment accorded to Italian prisoners by Austria," the dispatch stated. "Food rationsare small and poor; the work is extremely heavy; the prisoners are scantily clothed and have to go barefooted. They fre quently escape to the mountains. In the concentration camps life is un bearable. Tuberculosis rages in them. The patients, who are isolated in barracks, die without assistance of any kind. "The men are compelled to work without compensation. All church ■bells have been removed. In many towns scaffolds have been erected in .order to intimidate the poDulation." "BABY" EXPLODES; SINKS SUBMARINE; CROSS FOR WOMAN British Seamen Meet German Craft and Cunning and Take U-Boat Toll London, Aug. 7.—lnteresting reve lations regarding the work of British mystery_ships which have played an Important part in anti-submarine warfare are made by the naval cor respondent of The Times. They show how British seamen have met Ger man craft and cunning with craft and cunning. Until this week the public has known nothing about the mystery ships, called in the navy "Q" ships, although several officers, notably Captain Gordon Campbell, have been decorated for their services on these vessels. Details. now can be made public, as the Germans are .be coming aware-through bitter experi ence of the methods used against them. How "a woman and a baby" ac counted for a U-boat Is told' by the correspondent. The submarine order ed a vessel to surre'nder and fired a few shells into her. The boats then left the ship, leaving on board a woman, who ran up and down the deck with a baby in her arms as if mad. The U-boat came alongside the vessel and the woman hurled the "baby" Into the. open hatch. The "baby" explode# and blew out the bottom of the submarine. The "wom an" was decorated with the Victoria Cross. The correspondent says that the first mention of a mystery ship was in the case of the Baralong, which on August 19, 1915, sank a U-boat after the torpedoing of the British liner Arabic. It will be remembered, he says, that the German government protested that there was nothing to indicate the Baralong's warlike char acter. The Earalong case was prob ably not the first in which a ruse was used, and since that time the disguising of armed vessels as inno cent merchantmen for dealing with submarines has attained considerable dimensions. "Howls and moans." adds the naval correspondent, "went up in Germany about the treachery of British seamen, but the German al legations curiously ceased at the be ginning of 1916. These allegations af forded a typical example of German mentality, for they ignored the fact that in every case the U-boat was an actual or potential assailant, and any ruse of war Is considered legitimate by them except when employed against Germany." It should not be forgotten, he con tinues. that the German designed mystery ships for commerce destruc tion. The British commanders showed much ingenuity in devising plans for trapping submarines. In addition to the "woman and baby" case, the cor respondent mentions the story of a retired admiral, serving as a captain, who placed a haystack on board an ancient looking craft. When the Ü boat ordered her to surrender the Germans were astonished to receive a broadside from the haystack. On another occasion a seaworn tramp steamer was crossing the North Sea when a submarine ordered the crew to abandon ship. So sure was the German of his prey that the bombs with which he intended to sink the vessel were brought on deck around the conning tower. The com mander of the tramp steamer by careful maneuvering brought the submarine within range of his con cealed armament so that it required only a shell or two to explode the bombs and blow the U-boat out of the water. More Coal or Lose War, Says Garfield Philadelphia. Aug. 7.—lf hardship and suffering in many homes in this country are to be avoided during the coming winter and if General Per shing's army is to receive from the mine workers the complete support it deserves, there must be a decided increase in anthracite production, ac cording to a letter from Dr. Henry A. Garfield. United States fuel adminis trator, to the anthracite board of conciliation, which was made public yesterday. "The operators must strive for higher efficiency and for uniformly good physical conditions in their col lieries," says Dr. Garfield. "The mine workers must report for work each day and not only must stay in the mines the hours prescribed by the wage agreement, but must see to it there is a marked increase in the tonnage." Although it is not uncommon for miners in the anthracite regions to earn ?300 a month, there virtually are no applications for miners' cer tificates. and that in itself, as well as the coming draft, is a condition which greatly worries those desirious of an increased coal production.

Use McNeil's Pain Exterminator—Ad. l HAJRRISBURG TELEGRAPH! gp NEWS or THtP? \ READING FACTOR IN NEW RECORDS 'reight Business Under Fed eral Control Is Keeping Up to Standard The volume of business done by j the Reading railway "continues heavy. On Saturday and Sunday the corn | pany handled 37,541 cars on the | Reading and Harrisburg divisions. Of this number 2,329 were anthra cite and 4,267 bituminous. Railroads under common manage- I ment this year have hauled approxl- I mately this same amount of freight jas last year with less actual train j movement, owing to rerouting and fuller loading of cars. This was shown yesterday by a railroad ad ministration report on freight train operation for the year up to June 1. Five Months' Record In the five months' period* the number of tons of freight hauled one mile was 154.000,000,000 as compar ed with 156,000,000,000 last year. The apparent reduction this year was caused partly by new methods of re porting. Reports showed the number of mile 3 traveled by freight cars, con sidering the movement loaded freight cars, considering the movement of one car one mile as a unit, was 5,- 903,000,000, as compared with 5,456,- 000.000 last year. The hauling of empty freight cars also was cut down 44.000.000 car miles. Railroads had 30,791 locomotives in service June 1, as compared with 30,321 a year before. This was in ad dition to 4,555 locomotives awaiting repairs in shops. There were 2,418,- 000 freight cars in service, or 130,- 000 more than a year previous. A tendency to reduce the miles cover ed by trains in a day also was re flected in the report. Pennsy Shopmen Hear of New Classification In a supplementary order issued by the United States railroad adminis tration a comprehensive classifica tion is made of all railroad shopmen in the matter of wages, hours and conditions of employment. It goes into detail describing and classifying each class of workers, including me chanics, helpers and apprentices, making it very easy for each to de termine the class to which he be longs. j The rates fixed by the adjustment board are effective as of January 1, 1918, and apply to all men in the service at that time, or who have been employed since that time. The hourly rates named are for an eight hour day, and one and one-half time will be paid for all over-time, in cluding Sundays and the following holidays: New Year's, Washington's Birthday, Memorial Day, Fourth of July, Labor Day, Thanksgiving and Christmas. The special overtime rate will not, however, date back to January 1. but will be operative from August 1, so that Altoona men will receive their first overtime pay when they receive their pay for the first half of August.
