Riddle, recently appointed chief of the State Bureau of Re habilitation in the Department of Labor and Industry, has arranged for the start of the survey required by the act establishing the bureau and the reports of accidents filed with the offices of the Workmen's Compensation Bureau in this city will be utilized. Special attention is to be given at the start to the rail road, steel, coal and other industries where the largest percentage of ac cidents occur and cases will be se lected for trying out the scheme in the new law. Mr. Riddle having made a study of accidents and re habilitation in this and other states and in Canada, is familiar in a gen erl way with the situation and not much time will be lost in getting the n -aau into operation. He will -\e inquiries into the system sburgh companies in car ired men and at places in t gions. ii for State permits for i -i of bridges which has H-A-RRJSBUTtG TELEGRAPH been such u feature of the work of I the Pennsylvania Water Supply Com mission the last nine months appears to be over, as very few such papers are being filed these days. The Commission at its last meeting authorized only one bridge. Permits have been given for the construction of walls and making of creek changes for coal companies in sev eral western counties and for the Victory Park Commission of Lewis town to build a retaining wail and make fills in creating a park in mem ory of overseas men. In the next few months the State Public Service Commission will hand down decisions apportioning costs in construction work that will elimi nate a score of grade crossings and involve many thousands of dollars. Some of the projects alone involve between $150,000 and $200,000 and a few even more. These cases have been argued and the only question is apportioning costs and the time for starting construction. Inspection of units by Federal of ficers for Incorporation into the new Pennsylvania National Guard will be started the latter part of this month, according to present expectations at the Capitol. In a number of com munities companies have been formed for presentation to the com manding officers of regiments and following appointment of field offi cers, which is expected to follow the visit of Major General W. G. Price, the commanding general, here this week more will be organized. Divisional and brigade staffs will I soon be formed. Many former serv ice men are enrolling in the new companies. Tims far comparatively few hunt ing accidents have been reported to the State Game authorities consider ing the large number of hunters in the field. State Game protectors 1 have been instructed to investigate I all serious accidents and to make I reports. The small game season has | entered upon its last fortnight, as hunting of almost everything except j deer, whose season opens December i 1; bear, rabbits and raccoons, will : close on November 30. Detailed reports on health eondi- : tions in Pennsylvania during the ; first half of November show 225 cases of diphtheria, a marked decline:, from the same period of October There have been reported 94 cases of scarlet fever, 6 4 cases of typhoid fever, 178 of measles, 177 of chicken- j pox and much whooping cough. The latter three diseases have shown in creases over the same period of Oc tober. x I The State Compensation Board finished hearings in the anthracite region Saturday. "No act of the widow could in any way prejudice the rights of the children," rules the State Compensation Board in Gass vs. Aetna Chemical Co., a Pittsburgh case. The widow of a deceased em ploye married, but did not appear 1 to have reported the fact and re ceived compensation for the death , of the first husband for several 1 months after her second marriage. ' The compensation was ordered stopped in her case, but the second I marriage could not change the status of the children as claimants. The board has ordered new hearings in Marsh vs. Vinton Colliery Co., Vin tondale; Rendt vs. Wheeler, Rey noldsville; Runioid vs. GiUen, Phila delphia. In Bodner vs. Berwind- White Mining Co., Windber, the board says that it has "no power to graduate an award in proportion to the loss of vision." The board dis allowed the claim of Gandolfi vs. ; Rosenthal, Pittsburgh, holding that . the claimant was not an employe at ! the time of the accident, ana d s missed the petition in Alvano vs. 1 American Car and Foundry Co..

Big Erie Gas Case to Be Determined The Public Service Commission | has fixed December 15 as the time | for the argument in the complaints i of the cities of Erie and Corry j against the new rate schedule of the ! Pennsylvania Gas Company which ; will bring nearer determination the j big questions of natural gas supply | in Northern Pennsylvania. The ef- I fective date of the new rate schedule, which would revolutionize things in I that section of the State as far as . rates are concerned, has been post- | poned until January 20, and mean- | while the Commission will digest the i findings of its engineers and ac countants and hear argument. The j decision will have wide effect in the natural gas regions. Anotlier interesting matter sched-j uled for December is the action in stituted by the Commission against ! the Punxsutawney and Lindsay! water companies which are charged ' with failing to provide the service I ordered. This grows out of a re- j fusal of the Commission to author- ' lze certain changes in water service j for the Punxsutawney district and j the companies may be compelled to i do as directed in the way of substan tial improvements. ■ Many Report For Work at Cambria Plant at Johnstown Johnstown, Nov. 17.—A large ; number of men reported to work j this morning at the plant of the! Cambria Steel Company, which sev- j eral days ago announced it would ; resume operations after being closed j some weeks because of the steel I strike. Several blast and Bessemer 1 furnaces were in operation yester- ; day. Surplus labor will be tern- 1 porarily employed in repairs and I other necessary work, it was de- \ clared. No reduction of wages for any class of work is contemplated ' says a company statement. Workman's "Luckstone" Is a SIOO,OOO Ruby Omaha, Neb., Nov. 17. A "luck stone," carried by John Mibok, a Russian laborer, for the last twenty years, has turned out to be a pigeon blood ruby, the largests of its kind in the world, weighing twenty-four carats and valued at more than SIOO,OOO. Some time ago a friend of Niholt suggested that he show the stone to a jeweler and find out if it was worth anything because of its unusual col oring. The jeweler, after examin ing it, advised that it be sent to a Chicago gem expert fOT inspection. There its real value was discovered at once.
