Abdication
HIIISUTIIUIII. NOV, 27. —The armis- 1
th'e conferences between the Ger
man delegates nnil Marshal Koch,
Mini his associates early this month !
were carried out In the most busi- j
nessllke manner possible and appar- !
ently without notable incidents, ac- i
cording to an uecount of the con- |
ference given the Berlin Yossische !
Xeltung by a member of the Ger- j
man party.
Drive liitcntloiuilly Prolonged
After the' French met the Ger
man commissioners they were driven
for ten hours in automobiles to an
appointed rendezvous. "It seems to
me," says the narrator, "that the
drive was intentionally prolonged
in order to carry us through the de
vastated provinces and prepare us
for the hardest conditions which
hatred and revenge might demand.
One of the Frenchmen pointed to a
heap of ruins, saying 'behold St.
tjuentln!' "
"We entered a train, with blinds j
drawn, in the evening, and awoke I
in the morning in the midst of the
Forest of Complegne, surrounded by i
soldiers.
"There were two trains, one oc- I
cupied by Marshal Koch and his
staff and the other by the Germans, j
In these we lived, worked and nego- !
tiated for three days. We had
.everything in abundance. There was'
nothing to find fault with. The great
enmity and hatred that apparently
prevailed against us were shown,
however, In tlie negotiations and in
th terms Imposed.
Attitude of Allies Cold
The narrator remarks that the
French officers and Vice Admiral
Wemyess, British representatives,
maintained a eold attitude, never
tempered by a friendly word.
"Marshal Foeh, whom wo only
saw twice, at the beginning and at
the end of the conference, is a stern,
plain man. J le did not speak a single
word to us in the tone which for
merly distinguished the chivalrous '
French nation. • * *
"It is not true that Foeh told us i
there could not be any question of j
negotiations, only i.ie imposition of
conditions, and whutever coldness he
displayed was never ill-tempered or
rough. ♦ • *
Nothing to Negotiate
"lteally, there was nothing to
negotiate. We pointed out the tech
nical impossibility of some condi
tions * * • Finally we were ,
obliged to sign."
During tho discussion tlie French |
handed the Germans the Paris news- I
papers announcing the abdication ofj
Emperor William.
"We observed no smile of tri- !
uiuph on their faces," adds the writ- :
er, "but could discern their hatred." j
Wilson Plans to Guide
Ship of State by Wire
From Vessel and Paris
By Associated Press
Washington, Nov. 27.—N0 weight
is attached by President Wilson to
the argument of critics of his plans
for attending the peace conference
l hat upon crossing the sea he loses
the right to perform executive duties
and must allow them to devolve
upon the Vice-President.
It was said officially to-day that
the President will administer the
duties of his office as completely
aboard ship and from Paris as
though he were in the United States.
He holds there are no constitutional
difficulties and wireless and cable
communication solves the physical
problem.
Advertising to Play Big
Part in Reconstruction
Days Coming With Peace
"Advertising as a Factor in the
Development of Harrisburg," will he '
i tie subject of discussions by two
prominent Harrisburg citizens at an
important meeting of the Advertis
ing Club of Harrisburg Friday eve- :
ning at 7.45 o'clock in the Senate i
caucus room in the left \Ving N of the ,
Capitol,
Club members will speak, and a 1
discussion of the problems and pros- 1
pects of advertising during the re- i
construction period will take place.
In view of this importance of the i
. subjects, it is thought that every <
member of the club will make a spe- \
rial effort to be at the meeting. ,

Lord God of Hosts, we bend the knee to-day
In gratitude that Thou hast shown the way!
That throughstlie malstrom of four fearful years',
Through blood and fire, through death and women's tears,
We. as a nation, saw the Cross on high
And heard the echo of that, "Crucify!"
As our forefathers came to worship Thee
Daring the wildness of an unknown sea;
At last we give them answer, for we stand
' Before the world a great God-fearing land!
j
j We thank Thee for our harvests' fruitful yield
| To recompense each blackened Flanders field;
For hearts which learned, through sacrifice, how fine
Is human nature touched by the divine!

We thank Thee for the severing of the ties
I Of ritualistic form; that all men's eyes
See but the God of heaven and of earth;
That "Brother" has become a name of worth!

But more than all our grateful hearts o'erflow
With thoughts preventing speech because we know
; The roar of cannon and the whine of shell

AIM IN CITY'S !
NEW STATION
Council Commended For De-'
sire lo Avoid Vulgar Dis
play in Market Square
i
Council by yesterday's action In.j
picking the vacant plaza at the
side of the courthouse as the site'
of the proposed public comfort sta-!
tion to-day is meeting with more
and more approval. The city coni-s
missioners generally were com-j
mended for their passing Mr.
Lyneh's resolution on lirst reading.'
That Market Square is no place
for the housing of public toilet
facilities to-day was generally con
. ceded, while the courthouse site is
even, more centrally located. The
latter place also has the advantage
that women and children wishing
to get to it would not have to cross
a thoroughfare already overcrowded
and made dangerous by the im
mense amount or trolley car and
vehicular traffic.
Strictly Utilitarian
The purpose of a comfort station
is purely utilitarian, it was pointed i
out, and in no sense could such a
structure be considered as ornamen
tal. The privacy which ought to
mark it would only be lessened, it
is sqid,-by vulgar ornamentations.
One of the strongest arguments
that had been put up in favor of
erecting the toilet rooms at a point
that is decently secluded and yet 1
quickly available Is that the long
discussed plans for building safety
isles In Market square could be
more easily accomplished with the
comfort station somewhere else.
Whatever plans the future brings
forth for safety isle could be
handled separately and to meet traf
fic conditions as they arise.
The cost, too, of building a com
fort station at the courthouse would
be much less than in Murket square.
In years to come If the courthouse
is replaced by a ctt.v hull, little dif
ficulty could be experienced In let
ting the structure remain. There Is
no need to spend 125.000 for such a
structure, It was generally admitted I
in municipal circles. '
the platoon for its bravery follows:
"During the operations in the
Argonne Forest, September 25 to Oc
tober 9, 1918, the Stokes Eight
Trench Mortar Platoon of the 112 th
Infantry curried their guns and am- !
i munition throughout the advance, ,
I constantly keeping lip with the as- ;
i suultlng battalion, this through vast !
I stretches of barbed wire only par-
I tla.ll>- cut and up hills which the in
j fantry had to climb on bands and
; knees,
"They finished the advance and
j came out without losing any of their
! equipment. Their work was exhaus
• tivo, hut the spirit of the men and
| the standard of their morale was ex
| emplary."

Turkey, the traditional Tlinnks

to-day in the city markets than ever
before in local history, although late
in the morning fowls of all kinds .
were selling at less than had been
expected.
Shipment of a large number of
turkeys into the city during the last
week helped keep prices within rea
son. Farmers nnd big dealers ar
riving in the city yesterday sold a
number of turkeys as low as 35
cents a pound to hotel and restau
rant men. This morning the price
generally was higher, averaging 50
to 55 cents a pound for dressed
birds.
In many instances these prices j
were exceeded whei"> attempts, were j
made to sell fowls at a fixed figure ,
without giving the weight. Prices |
ranged up to 65 cents a pound where I
such pructlces were observed.
Geese were not plentiful. They I
averaged 38 to 42 cents a pound.
Ducks were even higher In propor
tion, setting at |1.90 to 12 for smull
fowls. Chickens were not appre
ciably higher than they have been

chickens sold from 11.75 to |2.50. [ i

CONTRACT TO BE
LET FOR BIG NEW
READING BRIDGE
| Work oil Double-Track Struc-|
lure to Begin Before
Spring
Contract for the erection of a two
track concrete and steel bridge to
replace the Philadelphia and Read-
I ing Railway Company's one track
j steel structure over the Susquehanna
| river in the lower end of Harrisburg
j will be let within a short time. Con
j tractors' representatives have been
I in the city for some time going over
j the ground and collecting data as to
I costs, muterials and problems of con
j strueUon.
The plans for the bridge have been
prepared. The bridge will closely re
j semble that of the Cumberland Val-
I ley Itailroud Company at Mulberry
street, but will be considerably high
er. It will be of ornumental design
and will cost upward of a million
dollars, perhaps more. It will give
work to a large number of men for a
year or longer and will go a long way
toward relieving the situation here
next spring, which was unduly stim
ulated last spring by the erection of
the big army depots in this vicinity.
For Skilled Workmen
The new bridge, work 011 which
will be started as early as weather
and other conditions will permit,
will providd employment for car
penters, concrete pourers and help
ers, steel construction men and ma
sons, to say nothing of other trades.
The whole building program for
the coming year In this vicinity is
looking up. The school board is pre
paring to go ahead with the comple
tion of its big junior high and high
school program, involving the ex
penditure of something like three
quarters of a million dollars or more,
and the prospects are that the Wal
nut street bridge over the river will
be rebuilt as soon as conditions re
turn to something like normal. It Is
at present inadequate and will be be
yond repair in a few years. The plan
is to double track it for street car
travel and thus give the West Shore
seven and fifteen-minute service. In
stead of the fifteen-minute and half
hour sclfcedules now of necessity
maintained.
Another Improvement that is to
come in this vicinity with the im
provement of market conditions an it
the stabilizing of industry will be
the double tracking of Walnut street
from the bridge to Second street and
the building of a big trolley depot
for the Valley railway linee.
Architects .and builders report
also that already Inquiries are being
j made concerning projects that were
delayed by the outbreak of the war
and which will be gotten underway
the coming year. They say in general
the outlook is bright both for the
building business and for the em
ployment of a large number o'f men
in Harrisburg and vicinity the com
ing year.
City Appeals From Jury's
Verdict in Hardscrabble
That the jury erred in bringing
in a verdict In favor of the defend
ant in the action of the city against
Katie G. Raymond, a property
owner or. the east side of Front
street, in the Hardscrabble district,
the city claiming a right to assess
benefits, wus the chief point of the
argument in that case when heard
in court to-day.
City Solicitor John E. Fox con
tended that all of the expert wit
nesses for the city and two of the
five for the defendant testified that
the property in question will be im
proved when the buildings on the
west side of the street are razed,
hut the jury ignored the testimony.
In another similar action against
John A. McAllister the jury nwarded
$l5OO while the lowest estlmute of
witnesses for the city was $2lOO.
Solicitor Fox asked for new trials
in both cases, contending that the
verdicts were not warranted by the
evidence, In the first action because
no benefits were allowed and In the
second because the jury fixed an.
estimate of benefits but in doing so
disregarded the Opinions of realty
dealers.
