LITTLE CHANGE IN
CITY OFFICES
[Continued from First Page.] I
I
diet that he will refuse the position j
if it is offered to him. Mr. I bach was !
a city detective for years, tinaily ;
being appointed to the Highway lie- J
partment post. He has made no com- '
ment on the report.
New Secretary to Mayor
That Mayor-elect George A. Ho- j
verier will make at least a few
changes in the police department is j
predicted. One appointment to be j
made will be that of a secretary to (
the mayor. City Treasurer-elect
Harry F. Oves has made no an- j
nouncemetit of the selection of any
clerks, but it is believed he will re- i
tain Joseph A. Minnuugh, now a j
clerk in the office.
County Commissioner H. C. Wells
will be succeeded by Commissioner
elect Howard O. liolsteiii when the
board reorganizes next month. With
the election of County Solicitor
Philip S. Moyer as district attorney,
a successor will he named to his of- '
lice. Only two names have been
mentioned so far, Frank B. Wicker
sham, at present an assistant district
attorney, and James G. Hatz. No
i hangtN in the clerical force in the
county commissioners' office are ex- 1
pected.
May Retain Hutlierford
While County Treasurer-elect Oli-'
ver C. Bishop has made no an
nouncement of a selection of a dep
uty treasurer, it has been rumored
that Josh. E. Rutherford is likely to.
be retained.- Other reports are that
no one has been thought of yet for
the place.
Another branch of the county gov
ernment which vvil be reorganized
and in all probability with no
changes is the board of poor direc
tors. Frank B. Snavely, John H.
Lehr and Jacob S. Farver have been
re-elected to their present positions
as'poor directors, and it is predicted
that when they go into office for
their new terms there will be little
other business before them at that
time.
Mr. Moyer. who vvil! succeed
Michael E. Stroup as district attor
ney. will have four appointments to
make. They will be two assistants,
a county detective and a stenog
rapher. It is rumored that E. Le-J
roy Keen may be named as one as
sistant. and also that Robert T. Fox,
an assistant to Mr. Stroup. may be
retained. William L. Windsor, 3rd,
a constable in the Fourth ward at
present, has been mentioned as like- j
l.v to be considered for county de- j
tective.
Three other offices in which it is
not believed changes are likely are
recorder of deeds, register of wills
and sheriff. M. Harvey Taylor, Ed- j
win H. Fisher and George W. Kar
niany, resepctively, nave been elected
to these places.

HEATLESS NIGHTS
[Continued from First Page.]
chants using power, light and heat
of the company will find themselves
unhampered in their operation in !
their' preparation for the holiday
season rush.
The city gas supply will not be
affected to any extent, according to
officials of the Harrisburg Gas Com
pany. They arc dependent to a cer
tain degree on bituminous coal, but
their greatest need is supplied by
river and anthracite coal and other
sources of power, the officials say.
At the Harrisburg Railways of
fices, no notice of any curtailment
in source of fuel have been re
ceived. None are expected either,
the officials say, since they are de
pendent almost altogether on river
coal and electrical current, supplied
by local companies who generate it
either from river coal or by water
power.
