BAN ON BUSINESS
LIFTED AT NOON
[Continued from First Pago.]
; laws require them to remain closed
i on election day.
A big demand for soft drinks and
; ice cream was expected by the soda
i fountain managers and the theater
owners also were prepared for rec
ord crowds at the reopening this aft
ernoon. Practically every business
place which has been closed has been
thoroughly fumigated. All the
j schools have been and sessions in
i them will start next Monday morn
ing. Most of the churches plan to
1 reopen to-morrow evening with
i prayer services.
I Health officials expect that a few
; cases of Influenza will be reported
! at times for the next few weeks, But
; it is believed that all danger of a
further outbreak has passed. Yes
| terday only seven burial certificates
' were issued in cases of deaths cuused
, by influenza.
Preciiut ion \rrilnl
| When the places which had been
closed, reopened at. noon there were
jno exceptionally large crowds on
I hand in the downtown district. In
1 ! a few minutes however, soda foun
' | tains were doing a good business.
■ j pool ' games were started and even
the bowling alleys in a few of the
! shops were doing business shortly
after 11! o'clock.
Health authorities said to-day that
: the public need olperve no further
i quarantine measures, but should fol
low the precautions of covering the
mouth and nose when sneezing or
coughing.
At the Emergency Hospital. Fifth
! and Seneca streets, there are twenty
six patients now, some of whom may
I be sent home late In the afternoon.
Three of the patients now at the hos
pital are in a critical condition. Since
j yesterday seven deaths front influ
enza and one from pneumonia have
: | been reported through the local
j Bureau of Vital Statistics. .
Dr. B. Franklin Royer, acting
commissioner of health, to-day stat
ed that reports from Pittsburgh were
that the closing order was being
generally obeyed and that prosecu
tions had been started by state
agents against owners of picture
houses or Siiloons who had opened
yesterday. Counsel has been named
ut Pittsburgh to have charge of
these cases for the state authorities
and the Attorney Depart
ment is being kept informed.
Dr. Royer said that whije the ban
against Lancaster raised at noon to
day automatically, as in York, Dau
phin and other southern central
counties, it would make no differ
ence in regard to the attitude of the
state on the equity action. The state
will maintain its position us to the
legality of the quarantine.
To-morrow the ban will he raised
in Berks, Lehigh, Northampton, Leb
anon, Lycoming and other central
counties.
Reports to-day, say health author
ities, indicate a clearing up gener
ally.
