RESCUERS TAKE
YANKS OFF SHIP
[Continued from First Page.]
at nightfall of bringing ashore the i
soldiers who are on the American J
transport Northern Pacific, stranded |
on a sandbar since early Wednesday 1
morning. Since the vessel went ;
aground it has rained incessantly.
When the coast guard lifesavcsj
assembled on the beach they found :
the sea running further In and the ;
surf breaking higher than yester
day over jibe transport. The wind
was veering to the northeast. The
ship had worked further in dur
ing the night, but because it was ]
high water this morning bet- dis-1
tance from shore seemed greater. |
Mariners long familiar tVith weath- ;
er conditions along this stretch of
the Atlantic coast said that if the j
northeast a ind increased the silua-1
tion might become dangerous, pi-e
--venting the removal of troops ex-1
ccpt with the breeches buoy, andj
that even this method must be liaz-j
ardous. The northeast wind sweeps |
down the beach and gives the sea
an outward twist that is considered
perilous for the transport.
line hundred and fifty more troops |
were removed from the Northern |
Pacific shortly before 9 a. m. to- i
day When submarine chaser No. 293 j
Went into the leeward of the trans- j
port, took the soldiers aboard and]
cone eyed tlierti to the Mallory, a
transport with the rescuing fleet.
On two ladders and three ropes
the men swarmed down over the
ship's side into the submarine
chaser. Meanwhile power boats
reached the Northern Pacific, and i
into these twelve men in stretchers j
were lowered and takeh to the liOs- i
pital ship Solace. Three other power j
boats took on soldiers .and pushed j
off toward other vesse's.
To Huihl Pohtoon Bride
Because of the time required to
land the men by boats and by
breeehes buoy and of the particular
difficulty in handling the wounded,
officers in charge of the- rescue Work |
to-day tmlled for engineers from the |
army and navy to plan the build
ing of a pontoon bridge front the. J
ship to the shore. As long as the j
Northern Pacific continued to be a j
safe refuge, the wounded and bed :
ridden could be kept aboard, it was
said, and an opportunity awaited |
for a calm sea to build the bridge, j
NINE INCHES OF
SNOW ON GROUND

wires were heavily laden with snow,
which flung tighuj all over the city.
Felix M. Davis, transportation
superintendent of the Harrisburg
Railways Company, was able to an.-
nounce early to-day that street car
tfciffic was running according to
schedule, and the downfall had not
demoralized transportation. The only
difficulty was during the early hours
lust evening, when the slipperiness
of the rails retal-ded progress. Sweep
ers and p-o'.vs combined to keep the
cars moving regularly, however.
Overhanging skies characterized
the weather to-day, with constantly
threatening snow or rain. Early in
the morning temperatures started to
drop afcd a cold dampness pervaded
the air.
Chicago, Jan. 3. —Chicagoans scur.
ried to Work to-dn.v in a temperature
of four degrees below zero with as
surance front the weather forecaster
that it won d be colder before it be
came warmer. Icy sidewalks caused
many injuries from talis. Frigid
weather prevailed throughout tho
Middle West, practically every state
reporting the lowest temperatures of
the winter.
During the nfternoon the mercury
made a further drop to seven de
grees below zero. One hundred fire
i alarms were turned in since last
1 night, due mostly to overheated fur
j naces and flues.
Detroit, Jan. 3. —Tho castbound
cold wave struck Rower Michigan
early to-day and sent temperatures
below the zero mark at several
points. The coldest point in the lower
peninsula reporting to-day to tlie
local weather bureau was Grayling,
with a mark of 8 below.

BIG BORROWING
CAPACITY ADVANTAGE
[Continued from First Pa sc.]
and water department sinking funds
total about $155,000, leaving a net
debt of $1,580,000.
May Borrow T Per Cent.
The city is permitted to borrow
funds up to 7 per cent, of the as
sessed valuation, which makes avail
able with a valuation of $62,000,000,
more than $4,300,000 for which
bonds could be issued after the pres
ent debt was deducted. The net
borrowing capacity, official pointed
out, is about $2,720,000.
Last year the city redeemed bonds
totaling $72,400 ahd about the same
amount will be used this year to pay
off securities for loans.
About $215,000 remained in the
city treasury at the end of the year,
much of it placed in banks and pay
ing 2 per cent, interest. Lust year
the city received almost $5,500 in
interest for money held in banks un
til it was needed at the treasury j
office. During this month water!
rents for the last half of the year I
will be paid by thousands of resi- j
dents, and March 1, 1919, city taxes!
will be payable.
Cotinty ih Good Shape
The county finances show the re- I
stilts of careful management also I
and the net debt at present is about j
SIOO,OOO. Last year bonds totaling!
$121,000 were redeemed, leaving an
indebtedness of $299,000, but about
two-thirds of this amount is already
provided In the sinking funds. Coun
ty officials anticipate the valuation
of real estate will reach the SIOO,-'
000,000 mark al least, and as they
have authority to borrow up to 2 :
per cent, of the valuation without |
a vote of the taxpayers, it would!
make the borrowing capacity $2,-,
000,000. It is expected also that the]
county commissioners will be able j
to reduce the county tux rate and j
at the same time have as much j
! money available, because of the big .
! increase in valuation made in the
triennial assessment. The sound :
i basis upon which the financial af- .
fairs have been administered makes
feasible the plan to build a joint city j
and county hall and to complete j
other improvements. .
At the close of the year funds in
the county treasury totaled $206,762,
one of the highest amounts in years:
to be available for county purposes
January 1. During the last few
days tax collectors in many of thej
i districts have paid in additional
! amounts which will make this total
| much higher.
Sinking I'uiuls Grow /
i Earnings 01 the county sinking
funds durnlg 1918 totaled $0,986.06,
the Commoitwea.th Trust Company,,
i in charge of the money, reported- to
i County Controller Henry W. Uouglt
. to-dav. In 1917 the tund earned
$9 277 20. The decrease last year
: \\ as due to the redemption of a
$121,000 band issue Of 1918.
The sinking fund commissioners
| decided if possible to buy in as many
iof the outstanding bonds of the
j issues Of 1901 and 1902 as possible
' it the owners will sell them at reA
j sonable rates. The bonds pay only
' 3 per cent, interest ahd the com
missioners said it Is likely the own
] ers would prefer to invest their
! money in securities paying a higher
I interest rate.
Of the 1901 issue of $300,000,
about $249,000 are outstanding, and
of the $78,000 issue in 1902, $50,000
are drawing interest. To meet
total bonded debt of $299,000, the
sinking fund already totals $198,-
491.80, making the net county debt
about SIOO,OOO. The earnings of the
sinking fund for the last year are
about 3% per cent., and the Com
monwealth Trust Company commis
sion totaled $1,529.72.

GREAT PORTS ARE
CLOSED BY EMBARGO
[Continued from First Page.]
.vessels expected to arrive in New
York, Boston and Philadelphia to
carry shipments across the Atlantic
had been delayed by storms.
The embargo began yesterday on
shipments from interior points to
New York over the New York Cen
! tral Railroad, due to the strike by
! freight handlers. This labor trouble
| was largely on the New Jersey side
lof the port, but to-day its scope
broadened and virtually every pier
j here was affected from which freight
iis loaded for eport. This freight
I reaches New York over nearly every
, railroad In the North Atlantic rail
traffic division.
ThC freight handlers have been
; receiving 42 cents ah hour for a ten
! hour day. Their demand now Is 60
j cents an hour for an eight-hour day,
' with time and a half overtime pay
1 for the ninth and tenth hours.
Washington, Jan. 3.—Officials at
the Food Administration, the Rail
road Administration and the Ship -
ping Board to-day professed ignor
ance of embargoes announce by offi
cials in New York on the movement
of eport freight to New York, Boston
and Philadelphia.
At the Food Administration it was
asserted that supplies for shipment
abroad had been moving satisfac
torily, and if reason for an embargo
had arisen no notice had been given
headquarters here. Shipping Board
officials declared that lack of ship
ping ooud not be responsible.
