SIEELTON EXHIBIT OFFFOR 'FRISCO Caßtlnned From First Pace. hard center frog for steam railroad use; solid mannard frob, design 166; spring frog for steam railroad, standard used 'by the Pere Marquette road; solid man nard hook heel switch, made from 151 pound girder rails, for use on street ear roads; one, solid mate, of same rail and construction; one rapid renewable mannard hard center frog, made of 151 ■pound rail. A number of switch stands of the following types: Ned Era, New Century and; Main line. Bocks Used in Panama Locks Those pieces are mounted on small, movable pedestals, or on mahogany bases especially prepared for this ex hibit. Another exhibit is a cast steel rack, such as is in use in the locks of the Panama Canal. Almost 10,000 racks like this sample have -been sent to the Isthmian Canal Company from the steel foundry of the local plant in 1913 art! 1914. One of the most interesting features of tho exhibit will bo the Mayan prod ucts consisting of cast iron and fraught steel parts in extensive commercial use. Wrought material containing Mayari, with a content of nickel and •-.hromiuni, show drop forgings in various »: which indicate the adaptability of Ma'- ari for practically ail purposes wlic • tough and readily worked steel is re quired. A striking feature in the Mavnri ex hibit is a display stand with large ma hogany base and tower effect in four columns, from which is to be suspended one ton of tile May ari pig iron by a one-and-one-eight inch Mayari heat treated bolt turned down to five thirty seconds of an inch. in thickness. One of these 'bolts sustained a lead of 2,300 pounds for one entire week during the A. E. H. M. A. convention in Atlantic City in October, 1914. These bolts are used with all the Mannard hard center work furnished by the Frog and Switch Department. There are many miscellaneous pieces, such as rail braces, rail sections, of various weights; switch stand targets, switch stand lamps, rail joints and spring boxes for street railway Hwitches. Hatchets That Can Chop Steel A model of the latest style of the double connecting tongue switch in aluminum has been made in the Prog and Switch Department for the exhibi tion. The bridge shop and forge de partments will be represented by char acteristic products anil pictures which will be displayed on back panels of the booth, and the columns supporting the roof of thp booth will be covered with mahogany panels on which will be mounted a largo number of steel prod ucts in %'arious stagos of manufacture. In the Mayari exhibit will be a num ber of hatchets and shovels made <xt this metal, twisted and bent, to show that the metal is practically indc structable. Hatihcts made of this metal have been chopped! into steel rails, without leaving a dent in tho hatchets. A feature of the Maryland Stool Company exhibit will be two models of steamships, the Alabama and the Alcon, Jmiit at the plant. The latter vessel was the first onfc to pass through the Panama Canal. Of samples of steel rails to be shown by the Cambria Steel Company will be the new 125-pound rail ordered by the Pennsylvania Railroad. Other steel products will consist of eye beams, channels, concrete bars, rake and har row teeth, plow points, axles, piston rods, fence paneling; and posts, mine ties, converters and G-autier 1 proldlucta of all descriptions. All furniture and fixtures to be used are finished in mahogany. Show cases and panels displaying small prod ucts of various companies are backed with green velvet to match the green carpet. LATE WARNEWSSUffIiyiARy Continued I'rom First Pace. lies In both the east and west is due to the fact that they are awaiting the entrance of new members into the com bination against the Teutonic nations. It is said that Rumania, with 000,000 soldiers, is virtually ready to enter the war on the side of the allies. An Important advance has been mado by the British army, if, as is roported in London, it has virtual possession of Lille. This city lies just south of the Belgian border to the east of the battle line held for several months and its occupation by the British would mean that a sharp bend has been made in the German front. Neither the French nor German war official statements, how ever, has given official confirmation of the London dispatch. Renewed activity along the coast of j German aircraft which bombarded 1 Dunkirk has revived rumors of a Zeppe-! lin raid over England. One Zeppelin is i said to have moved toward the English i coast from Dunkirk. Another lull in the fighting along the I Vistula, in Russian Poland, is recorded by the Petrograd War Office. The fury J of the German attack has not spent it self, however, and, although the at-1 tempt to break through the Russian i line west of Warsaw may have been given up for the time, the movement from the north continue in full force. Pour successive German attacks were made in this region and, according to the British version, they accomplished little. The British press considers that Sir Edward Grey's reply to the American note concerning British interference with American shipping has disposed of the issue. The reply is regarded as satisfying to British public opinion and the British newspapers take the view that it should satisfy the American public. INAUCURATIONATCOLUMBUS First Time in Eleven Years That Buck eye Capital Witnessed Induction of Bepubiican Governor By Associated Press. Columbus, 0., Jan. 11. —In the pres- I ence of a vast throng gathered from all parts of Ohio and from adjoining States, Frank B. Willis, of Uardiu coun ty, was inaugurated Governor of Ohio to-day and "Governor James Cox became a private citizen. The inaugural ceremonies were de void of partisan features. The event, however, marked an epoch in the his tory of the Republican party in Ohio in that it was the first time in eleven years that the inaugurated Governor came from that party. Celebrating the event many Republican clubs were in line in the inaugural parade. In bis inaugural address Governor Willis 'promised retrenchment in State affairs. Mr. Willis has resigned his seat in the Senate on last Friday and enjoyed a respite of two days during Which he was a 'private citizen. Retiring Governor Cox will return to the management of 'his newspapers in j Dayton and Springfield. I Topeka, Ivan., Jan. 11.—'Arthur Cap ' per. of Topoka, the first native Kansan in) chosen chief executive of tihe State and the first to be chosen by the suffrage of both men ami the women of the State, was inaugurated as the twentieth Governor of Kansas here to day. In his address Governor Capper urged a vigorous campaign for na tional prohibition and woman suffrage. TOWN IN PERIL FROM FLOOD Safe Harbor Menaced By Waters of Conestoga Biver Lancaster, Jan. 11.—The flood at Safe Harbor, caused by water from the Susquehanna river having backed up the Conestoga river, on which Safe Harbor is located, a gireat gorge hav ing formed below the mouth of the Oonestoiga, still threatens that place. Early Saturday night the water began slowly receding, but lator, becanso of tho channel in the gorge choking up, the water began rising again, and to day is -5 feet above low water mark. Another gorge at Pequea threatens the low lyimg parts of the place. Saturday 14 feet of the ice was shoved upon the Columbia and Port De posit railroad there, but a "cut" through it allowed trains to pass yes terday.
