LETTERS FROM !
THEFRONTHERE
BY HUNDREDS
Parents Anxiously Awaiting
*Yord From Boys in •
France
LIST IS LARGE
Many Harrisburg and Dau
phin County Boys Re
ported Wounded
Hundreds of letters from Harris
butt: soldiers have been received
within the past two or three days
indicating: that a ship bearing hun
dreds of bags of mail arrived recently
from France.
Because of the ending of hostili
ties, parents and other relatives now
are on the anxious scat waiting tq
learn whether or not anything had j
happened in thp closing days of the
war. For this reason the arrival of j
letters now means more than it did
at ahy time since Pershing's first
expeditionary force landed in France.
Two Weeks to Go
Most of the letters received from
front-line units beat dates between
October 25 and 30. This would leave
the writers with about ten days or
two weeks of lighting to do before
the armistice was signed. These
we* the hardest days of the war,
when the American army brake the
the German lines and penetrated far
into the enemy positions.
There is a general belief that the
next mails may get to America a
little quicker because of the war's
end, and letters from the fighting
men written after the fighting ceased
are expected to arrive here early
next month.
Advices from the War Department
to-day give the city and county one
of the heaviest casualty lists since
the war began.

'BURGLAR ADMITS
HE SLEW WOMAN;
ACQUITS A GIRL
James Regan, Sing Sing Con
vict, Confesses Murder of
Mrs. Helen Hamcl
Bv Associated Press
New York, Nov. 26.—James Regan,
a Sing Sing convict, confessed to-1
day that it was he who killed Airs.
Helen Hamel In her boardinghouse
here last February, exonerating Miss
Elizabeth Baksa,. 19 years of age, of ,
Freemansburg, Pa., now on. trial]
charged with the murder.
With a record of six criminal con
victions, Regan was yesterday
brought into the court room where
Aiiss Uaksa was on trial for her life,
avowing his desire to clear her of the i
charge of murdering Airs. Helen
Hamel, a New York lodginghouse ]
keeper, last February.
Regan demurred, however, at the i
"terms" on which District Attorney 1
Swann offered to accept his testi
mony, which he hinted might involve
himself. Air. Swann and Judge Itos
alsky, presiding at the trial, then de
cided to turn him over to attorneys
for Aliss Baksa so that they might
attempt to persuade him to tell what
he knows about the murder, regard
less of the personal consequences.
District Attorney Swann, who with
Judge Rosalsky, questioned him for
several hours, said he refused to give
any testimony in the case unless he
I were assured immunity from prose
■ eution. Mr. Swann said a suggestion
I that Regan might be permitted to
I plead guilty to manslaughter in ex-
I change for his testimony, "didn't
I seem to appeal to him."
Air. Swann declared he could not
! consent to Regan's demand for im
! munity, though he was anxious to
have him testify, t •
Regan was brought from Sing
Sing as the result of a letter lie wrote
Judge Rosalsky last Friday in which
he declared he knew the murderer
of Airs. Hamel and that he was pre
pared to give testimony in court
which would free her. He now is
serving a sentence for burglary im
posed on May 15.
Regan declared he had intended
also to kill AJiss Baksa when she
came into Airs. Hamei's house, where
she roomed, just after he had
strangled the elder woman to death.
The pleadings of a "pal" in the
crime, who said "don't'do that, Jim,
one is enough." induced him he
said to let Miss Baksa go.
Breaks Down After Grill
Convicted six times of burglary
and grand larceny and sentenced
last Aiay, three piontbji after the
murder, to the term V' now is serv
ing, Regan told the district attor
ney, after ten hours of questioning
which terminated at two o'clock this
morning that he could not allow an
innocent girl to go to the electric
chair for a crime which lie had com
mitted. He refused to divulge the
name of his accomplice, but said
thyo were robbing Airs. Hamei's
house when she discovered them and
began to scream. Regan, killed her,
he confessed, by knotting a 'towel
around her throat to suppress her
cries.
Makes Full Confession v "
Regan wrote from his cell to Judge
Rosalsky, asserting that Miss Baksa
did not commit the murder and that
he would tell who did, after he had
read in the newspapers of the trial.
| He refused at first to give any de
tails of the crime unless he was
I promised immunity from prosecu
j tion, but finally made a full con
: fession which he said he would
I swear to in court. It is understood
J that if his story on investigation, is
, found to be true, he will be per-
I mitted to plead guilty to man
slaughter. Pendin gthis inquiry, the!
I Baksa trial was recessed until next
Monday.
in the meantime, the district at
torney, who stated that he wqs not
satisfied with some parts of Regan's
confession, will check, up its var-i
ious features with other evidence in
the 'case. Regan will, be subjected
j to an examination by allienists to de
j termine Ig's mental condition.
Girl Flees in Fear
Mjss Baksa fled to Freemansburg
after the murder. When she re
turned four days later, impelled,
!as she declared, to tell what she
! knew of the killing, she was ar
rested and later indicated for the_
crime. She maintained from the"
start of her trial recently that an
unknown man had strangled Airs.
Hamel and hud threatened to kill
her unless she "went away and kept
quiet."

I HOUSING PROBLEM
WILL BE SOLVED
i
Flaps Made to Build Large j
Number of Homes of
All Classes
At the meeting of the Municipal"
( League held iast evening in the of- j
fices of Frank A. llobbins, Jr., the|
problem of securing better housing j
conditions In Steelton was discussed,
jat great length, and definite plans I
of action were 'aid for the erection!
of an indefinite number of homes |
within, the near future. The prob
lem is one that has long been a
matter of worriment and great con
| cern to all who know the situation,
| and no action or movement could
I be better launched at this time. It i
i was pointed out that little could be 1
done in. the way of improving liv
| ing conditions among the foreign
! and colored elements in the town so
j long as such inadequate housing
| conditions prevailed. The matter
! has come up in the past at frequent
intervals but on each occasion the
matter was dropped, but at this time
the realization is that something
must be done. The necessity was
brought out quite clearly by the re
cent influenza epidemic, a large pro
portion of the number of deaths
having occurred in. the congested
sections of the town, which sections
took the aspect of breeding places
for the epidemic because of which
and through which the other sec
tions of' the town suffered. The
housing problem has thus developed
from u matter of municipal growth
to a matter of the safety and health
of the residents of the town, and as
such the matter must be taken up
immediately.
The plait proposed last evening
called tor the immediate raising of
at least $lOO,OOO to be expended in
erecting residences of three distinct
types, in three separate districts of
the town, one type to be inexpen
sive in a cheaper section of the bor
ough, another to be moderately
priced In a better section, while a
third type is to be of a thoroughly
good type in the best section the
town ntfords.
T. T. McKntee and W. H. Nell of
the Peoples Bank were named as a
cordmittee to formulate plans and
work out an organization for the
financing of the matter.
Those interested in the matter be
lieve that this effort will be suc
cessful in spite of the failure of
similar projects in the past. This
hope is strengthened by the tact
that in the plan ot labor representa
tion recently formulated by the
Bethlehem Steel plant, a commit
tee was named to take up the hous
ing situation. It is to be hoped
that this committee can be of help
in the present project; especially
when it is borne in mind that the
improved housing conditions would
be of greater benefit even to the
Steel Company than to the borough
and its residents.
At the league meeting the-jfol
loMung officers wqj* ejected; T, T.
AlcEntce, president; C. Sr. Davis,
first vice-president; F. A. Bobbins,
Jr., second vice-president; G. M.
Bong, treasurer; W. Y. Guyer, secre
tary. Two new members were ad
mitted, the Rev. J. C. Thompson,
rector of St. James' parish and U. S.
Abercrombie manager of the Steel
ton Stores Company.
