HOLD FOUR MEN FORJMUTINY Their Stories Do Not Agree With That of Zirkel's Master Philadelphia, Oct. 17.—A tragic tale of the seas was unfolded here yesterday by four survivors of the British schooner Onato. picked up while drifting helplessly several hun dred miles from shore by the Ameri can steamship Zirkel. The surviv ors. all from Newfoundland, say the captain of the Onato. James Brus sia. and his brother, Ernest, first >nate, were crushed to death by the shifting of the ship's cargo. Their stories, however, do not agree with that told by Captain Dan iel A. Sullivan, master of the Zirkel. which arrived here yesterday, and all four men were locked up at the Gloucester Immigration station on charges of mutiny. They will be turned over to the British consul. Captain Sullivan declared that when he drew near the schoon he plain- A STITCH IN TIME I SAVES MANY $5,000 for accidental death.

Tell Same Story The survivors. Douglas Nicholl, Thomas Moltou, Lorenzo Ash and Ernest Frizzard. all told virtually the same story, except as to some of the details, which the authorities said were conflicting. They declared their officers met an accidental death while the entire schooner's company of six was battling to save the craft during a terrible gale. Captain Brussia and his brother, they said, went below deck to look after the cargo and were crushed to death when it shifted. The crew of the Zirkel first sight ed the Onato about 10.45 o'clock on the night of October S when about 300 miles due east of Newfoundland. "There had been heav}' weather and a high sea was running." said Captain Sullivan, of the rescvie ship. "About 10.45 p. m. a lookout re ported a light about a mile away, two points off the starboard bow. It was a flare and plainly called for in vestigation. "I gave directions to bear down upon the light and soon we were close enough to see that it was a two-masted schooner. We rigged up a flare and in the increased light we saw what appeared to be a gen eral fight raging upon the schoon er's deck amidships. "We were just closing in with the schooner when our steam steering gear broke and we drifted away out of control. We hastily rigged up a band steering gear and while we were at this work the schooner came down the wind and crossed under our stern. Hoard Pistol Shots "I plainly saw a human body, at tired in dark clothes, lying on the 'midship hatchway. Then the schooner was gone right off into the night again, with only her flare showing. One of my officers said he heard two reports which he believed to be pistol shots, but which might have been from a gun with which they were trying to shoot a line aboard us, or may have been in tended as signals. "When we again came alongside, the four men aske 1 us to save them, and with much difficulty we launch ed a boat. Several times the high seas almost swamped it. but finally we managed to take the survivors from the doomed craft. The Onato drifted away and disappeared in the mist." The Onato. a 150-ton schooner, was bound for a Newfoundland port from Oporto. Spain, with a cargo of salt. Officers of the Zirkel believe the little craft sank shortly after the four men were taken off. The Zirkel left Rotterdam in bal last on October 1. CONFERS DEGREE I.ykens. Pa.. Oct.

POWER RATES IN CHESTER STAND Commission Does Not Change War Time Situation; Jitney Line Called to Account The Public Service Commission has dismissed the complaint of the West Chester Board of Trade against the rates of the Philadelphia Sub urban Gas and Electric Company in which an important industrial power question arose. The Commission found that while the Pottstown. | Phonenixville and West Chester dis tricts were operated as one division, the large industrial plants in the two former towns were furnished current at lower rates than in the West Ches ter-section, "in which the amount of current used for industrial purposes is very limited." The Commission finds that the facts disclosed do not Justify it in holding discrimination," ' saying. "It is the uniform practice so I far as the Commission is able to de ; termine that large industrial cou sumers are furnished current at a re duced rate on account of less cost of production and distribution, the price decreasing in proportion as the amount increases, with a reasonable stgnd ready to serve or minimum charge applied. • * * 'While a unity should not be permitted to pass along to its patrons all the burdens imposed by the war conditions, it must, however, maintain its plant In an efficient manner and to a reason able extent ask that it be reimbursed for its increased operating cost and the extent to which it has so done In this case does not convince the Com mission that the rates it is now col lecting are excessive or unreason able." Note of "stress of feeling between drivers" and "unusual labor condi tions throughout the country" is taken by Commissioner M. J. Brecht in deciding complaint of the Emerick Motor Bus Line against the Belle fonte Central Transportation Com pany. The companies got into a con troversy and the commissioner de c'ines to revoke the certificate of the latter, but says that it did not ad here to its schedule or route. Or ders are issued for it to maintain its schedule, route and proper repairs and file a monthly report with the Commission. This is one of the most drastic regulations of a motor bus company.

Dumb, acting superintendent of the State Police. The orders are the first to be issued in regard to aircraft and cover answers to numerous requests which have been coming for police men to guard craft in exhibition flights or emergency landings. The orders say: "Members of this force can not be properly detailed to guard private aircraft. The law does not contemplate that the State police force shall furnish private watchmen to guard personal prop erty." "An aviator who. without permission, lands on a private field or park is, in the eyes of the law, a trespasser. Such landing invari ably attracts large crowds of curious people, some times resulting in fields of growing crops being damaged, fences broken down and other prop erty destroyed. Under such circum stances the property owner upon re quest should be given such protection from lawless acts as can be afforded by local substation details." "Duly authorized Government aviators who are compelled to make emergency landings should be given such assistance and directions as may be necessary to facilitate the duty in which they may be en gaged." Gilford Pinchot and Col. Henry W. Shoemaker, members of the State Forest Commission, who were named on a committee to inspect manner of cutting timber in State foreats. are making visits to State reserves in northern counties. They are plan ning a general tour of reserves and will report to the board November 7. Governor Sproul passed through Harrisburg to-day on his way to Philadelphia from Erie where he spoke last evening. The Board of Public Grounds and Buildings will meet Tuesday to act finally on the Memorial Bridge con tract. Numerous Inquiries arc being made regarding the bidding for State roads on which tenders will be opened late this month. The offering is the largest in State history. The Public Service Commission has issued an order dismissing com plaint of James P. Kern. Slatedale, against the rates of the Washington Water Supply Company and refus ing to make a valuation of the prop erty of the company in Lehigh county. The revenue of the com pany is found to be only $2,743.31. An allowance of $3OO a year for depreciation is made. State Forest officials said to-day that for almost a dozen years they have been calling attention of the public and businessmen to the chest nut blight situation and the eventual extinction of the chestnut timber, but that successive appeals were either ignored or declared to be for political effect. The blight has swept over this section of the State and there are not many trees which have escaped. • Friends of ex-Representatlva Isa dore Stern, of Philadelphia, have received word that he wiM be a can didate for Congress in the second district, now being represented by George S. Graham. The Philadelphia campaign seems to have been expensive. The of ficial statement of the Patterson side shows that Senator Edwin H. Vare gave $lB,OOO of the $37,000 spent for Judge John M. Patterson and that Thomas Robins gave $2,500. Col. Joltn C. Groome said lass night in Philadelphia that he had not made up his mind regarding con tinuation as superintendent of State Police and that if he was offered the directorship of public safety in Philadelphia it would have to be with the understanding that he would be boss and no one else. State mine officials were much in terested to-day in the reports from Scranton that the Lackawanna in terests had agreed to reach agree ments with property owners regard ing mine caves. This is the first step toward a solution of a problem that has agitated Legislatures and given State officials much concern for years. Xo statement was forthcoming to day in regard to the Maurer letter to Governor Sproul concerning the State Police. The Governor is in Philadelphia and will not return here for a week. The Philadelphia Inquirer to-day says that the Philadelphia campaign is going to be conducted on a har monious basis and that there will be no difficulties. This news was received with pleasure at the Capitol which was discussing possibilities of a new outbreak of factionalism in advance of the State election. Governor Urges Harmony at Erie Governor tVilliam C. Sproul, who spent yesterday at Erie, made speeches of a political and civic character at the lake city and left last night for Philadelphia where he speaks to-day_ before medical men. A plea for a reunited .Republican party was made before a meeting of members of the Erie Republican city and county committees in the afternoon and he made the chief address before the annual banquet of the Erie Board of Commerce at night. He was taken to points of interest in and about Erie and at 1 o'clock was the guest. of honor at a luncheon given by prominent residents of Erie. At this luncheon the Governor spoke on the neutral facilities of Erie harbor, the only lake port of the State, saying that the harbor should be improved in the very near future and that the only trouble *ith the people of Erie is that they have been too modest in asking for funds from the State. Auto Truck Line Is Refused Franchise The Public Service Commission to day refused a certificate of public convenience to the Z. & W. Motor Transportation Line to operate a line of motor trucks between Waynes boro, Greencastle, Chambersburg and intermediate points. The Chambers burg, Greencastle and Waynesboro street railway contended that the line was not needed, as there was plenty of service. The Commission found that the street railway carried pack age freight and that the Cumberland Valley Railroad also served the dis | trlct, and said: "The proposed auto service and the street railway freight service could not both continue. The probable effect of such competition would be the withdrawal by the rail way of its freight service and the consequent loss to the company of the money now invested in the equip ment for hauling freight." Accom- , modation which the truck line might furnish people not along the trolley | line is declared to have been shown j to be "indefinite and uncertain." The truck line, it is held, has not | established necessity.

We would like you to come to our bakery and see for your self,bring a flour expert with you if you can. When we % tell you that we use all of the best # other ingredients possible to get that is exactly what we mean. Words do not make the best bread. It re quires the best materials and the best bakers. If you would only come out to our bakery and see us make from beginning to end and see each ingredient that goes into it, see our bakers mix the bread, see the bread go into the loaves, see the loaves go into the ovens and come out of them, you will be one of the biggest advertisements for Bricker's O.
