GERMAN MONEY
Public Funds Taken in Loot
During the Revolu-
I
I tion
Berlin, Aug. 26. Enormous
amounts of public money were di
verted into the pockets of the Spar
tacans during the revolution in Ber
lin last winter, which was led by
the then Chief of Police Eichhorn,
according to information obtained
by a Parliamentary Commission
which is investigating the adminis
tration of the fugitive former police
I chief.
Police officials who have examin
ed Eichhorn's ledger say it is im
possible to determine how great
was the amount taken by the Spar
tacans. Evidence has been submit
ted that Eichhorn's security guard
who was on duty at the railway
station during the outbreak helped
himself to six million marks of army
funds which had been brought from
, Rumania.
Auditors asserted that Eichhorn
made frequent raids on the official
treasury through faked requisitions
and even drew funds for which no
accounts were rendered. In one
instance, these arc alleged to have
totalled more than 300,000 marks.
One- hundred thousand cigars and
170 smoked hams confiscated by the
old police regime have mysteriously
disappeared.

WOULD HAVE GOVERNMENT
OPERATE ALL REFRIGERATOR
CARS ON EQUAL TERMS
Federal Trade Commission Points Out That 90 Per Cent,
of This Railroad Equipment Is Owned by the Five
Big Chicago Packers
Washington, Aug. 26.—Ascribing
to private car lines a position as
one of the principal factors in the
concentration of control of the
American meat industry, and show
j ing that the Big Five Chicago pack
i ers own more than 90 per cent of
i the equipment suitable for ship
j ment of fresh beef and carcass
: meats, the Federal Trade Commis
j sion to-day made public a special
| "Private Car Line Report" to the
i President. It recommends as a
remedy that all cars used for the
transportation of meat animals and
all refrigerator cars and equipment
be operated on equal terms to all
shippers.
"The most important types of
private cars considered," says the
Commission's letter of transmittal
to the President, "are the brine
tank refrigerator car equipped for
I the transportation of dressed meat
carcasses, and the ventilator re-
I frigerator car suitable for packing
| house products and for vegetables
| and fruits. The three principal
I classes of owners are the packers,
j the railroads, and private car com
' panies leasing their equipment to
| shippers and railroads.
The complete report will be
1 ready for distribution within two
i weeks.
Packers Own Most Cars
Extensive ownership af brine
J tank refrigerator cars by the five
! big packers is a principal factor in
1 their control of the meat industry,
j the report says. On December 31,
! 1917, they owned 15,454 brine tank
j cars, adapted to the shipment of
I fresh beef and carcass meats, which
!is over 90 per cent of the total
; equipment of this type of car. Their
1 ownership, until recently, of acces
sory facilities such as icing stations
and platforms located advanta
geously in trunk line territory,
strengthened their control over the
industry.
In turn, the volume of traffic of
the five packers has enabled them to
secure from the railroads advan
tages over competing shippers.
Formerly in the shape of direct re
! bates, these advantages are now
' tisualy in expedited service to the
i big packer cars: in favorable mix
ing rules which include all their di
versified products and even many
articles not related to the packing
industry: by allowances paid to
some of the big packers by carriers
for the performance of a part of the
transportation service: by favorable
arrangements and lease of stock
yards by the railroads to some of
the big packers; and by the sale
to the railrpads of bumping posts
HJLRRISBURG TELEGR^tTti
i manufactured by a subsidiary of
one of the Big Five packers.
In order, therefore, to correct the
present inequalities of service and
rates us well as to prevent the
dangers of monopolistic advantages
in the use of certain types of cars,
the follo'wing recommendations are
made.
That the Government acquire all
cars used for the transportation of
meat animals and that such owner
ship and operation be declared a
I Government monopoly; or that such
cars be owned and operated by the
railroads under Government license
regulation.
That the Government acquire all
refrigerator cars and all necessary
equipment for their proper opera
tion and that such ownership and
operation be declared a Government
monopoly; or that such cars and
equipment he owned and operated
by the railroads under Government
licenses regulation.
These recommendations contem
plate the acquisition and operation
not only of the live-stock cars and
i refrigerator cars, but also of all
necessary facilities for their opera
tion, such as car shops for their
construction and repair, feeding
and watering facilities for live stock
in transit, precooling equipment for
refrigerator cars and icing stations
for the refrigeration of perishables
in transit, ice manufacturing plants
and natural ice producing privileges
connected therewith or necessary
thereto, together with such other
facilities as may be needed to se
cure the efficient transportation of
meat animals and perishable food
| products.
Visit to Morgue
Cures Speed Demons
Chicago, Aug. 26. "It's a good
idea—ought to stop speeding," said
Deputy Coroner Samuel L. Davis as
he conducted a party of strangely
quiet motorists from the dingy door
of the county morgue to their wait
ing motorcars. He stood and watch
ed with a grim smile as the motor
ists drove away.
Sam Davis has been at the trade
of deputy coroner and in morgues
and hospitals so long that he is al
most hardened to it. But such was
not the case with the motorists
caught speeding and sentenced by
Judge Stelk to view the 'bodies of
persons killed recently by hard driv
ing motorists.
There were four bodies—a man
who left a widow and six children
another who left a still larger fam
ily. and two little children. Sam
Davis conducted the motorists un
der that strange sentence through
the morgue. They said little with
the exception of one of them. He
!:w m . a^ ked , in a husbe(l sort of tone
that he had been going thirty-five
an ho " r ' but "never again."
Its curing them." said the
deputy coroner.
King Liholiho Shocks
New England Women
Kohaln. Hawaii, Aug. 26 It is
recorded that when the first mis
sionaries arrived from Boston in
the brig Thaddeus, that the refined
senses of the New England women
In the party were greatly shocked

Kailua Bay, King Liholiho came on
shipboard to pay his respects clad
in a "narrow waist girdle, a green
silk scarf thrown over his should
ers, a necklace of large beads, and
a crown of scarlet feathers."
Soon after the missionaries had
got settled in their own house on
shore, the King, accompanied by
his five wives, all of them without
one stitch of clothing, came to visit
them again. It was hinted that he
would receive more cordial welcome
if he should don a different style
of dress when he called. He re
turned the next day in an elaborate
costume consisting of silk stockings
and a cocked hat!

MUNITION IS
SENT TO MEXICO
Gunboats Will Endeavor to
Intercept Ship With
Its Cargo
New York, Aug. 26. —Ten trunks
containing arms and ammunition
were shipped from this city to Mex
ico on the steamship Morro Castle
which sailed last Friday for Havana,
for Progreso and Vera Cruz, ac
cording to information obtained yes
terday by detectives attached to liic
bomb squad. The trunks were
shipped from a Broadway hotc'.
The Deparfment of Justice and ll:o
Navy Department have been noti
fied and it is expected gunboats will
be sent out to intercept the steam
ship.
The bomb squad detectives, wno
have been investigating reports of
secret ammunition stores here, first
learned of the shipment through
discovery, of a bill of sale showing
17,000 rounds of ammunition and
350 pounds of "talcum" powder had
been purchased on August 16 from
a large sporting goods house in this
city and consigned to an address
which the detectives found to bo
fictitious.
They discovered that the explo
sives had actually found their way
to a Broadway hotel, where two
men, believed to have been agents
of the Mexican government, were
registered until last Friday.
The detectives believe they took
! passage on the Morro Castle w;tli
the ten trunks of ammunition.
After the hotel had been searched
for additional stores of explosives,
the detectives raided an uptown
restaurant, where they found sev
eral more trunks, believed to con
tain ammunition. A package lab
elled "talcum powder" and several
rifles also were seized at the restau
rant

legislative committee in Washing

senting 3,000 local organizations of
American veterans of the Great
War, will give its active support to

ordered interned or were convicted
of any offenses against the United

prima facie evidence that said al
iens are undesirable and in every
case in which any such alien is
ordered expelled or excluded from
the United States under the provis

Secretary of shall be final.
It is further provided that in ad
