Sls PER MAN WAS GOVERNOR'S IDEA OF JCOST OP TRIP CwitlßUcd From First Pas*. e#*l principle*, ami he sent for the Sen ate anil House attaches aiui asked for figures jn the cost. The Governor him self suggested that the cost of the en tire trip should not be over sls a man, but this was shown to be entirely too small, ami when the details were gone over it was found that the expenses, covering everything, including trans portation and boarding, would be not less than $1,700. ami that is about the amount that wilt HP ex-pernled. That is an average of $48.57. Siae of Party Kept Down The Pennsylvania will have entire charge' from the time the party leaves Harrisburg on next Momlav niglrt until it returns on Wednesday morning. The party will go by way of Washington and Richmond to Newport News. entirely by rail, occupying Pull man cars—parlor, sleepers and dinei— ami only those invited by the legisla tive committee, of which Senator Beidleman. of Dauphin, is the chair man, will be allowed on the tram. ' They will arrive at Newport News 411 Toesdav morning and will attend the launching at noon, in which cere monv Governor Brumbaugh will tai** part, and then go to Old Point Comfort for the afternoon, leaving there in time to get back to Harrisimrg on the fol low ing morning. Much disappointment has been ex pressed among those Senators and Rep resentatives who will not be of the party, but the Governor is determined that there shall be no junket and uo scandal such as has Heretofore charac terized some legislative expeditions to participate in ceremonies. It was expected that by hocus pocus the Pennsylvania delegation could be enlarged to at least a hundred •in order that a big showing might be made for a big State, but the money was not there to pay the expenses, and the chief clerk - the Senate and House who will have to pay the bills out of their contingent funds are not going to sanction anything more than what is desired by the Governor, aud expenses will be pared to the bone.

Who Wu Attachea co the Northumberland County Treasury, Must Stand Sentence—J usticsa Ad journ, to Meet in Pittsburgh / The Superior Court this morning held its final meeting of its present session and. after hearing argument in the last case, handed down a number of opin ions and adjourned, to meet in Pitts burgh in April. One of the decisions made by Justice Kephart was iu a Northumberland county case, wherein Swab, who wa« connected with the Northumberland county treasury and was convicted y>f embezzling county funds, made an appeal for a new trial. It was denied and he was ordered to appear for sentence. Justice Kephart went over the facts in the case at length ami found that there was noth ing in the appeal to justify a reversal of the court below, and he decided against Swab. Justice Kephart also affirmed the Delaware county court in the appeal of Evans, and in the case of Floyd vs. the l.ehigh Valley Rail road Company reversed the court below and ordered a new trial. Other opinions handed down were as follows: By Justice Trexler —Harry t.ueiaon's appeal, Lancaster, affirmed; estave of Gideon Wagner, appeal. No. 1, Leba non, affirmed; same. No. 2. appeal dis missed: Joseph W. Bain vs. Ben's Creek Coal and Coke Co.. Blair, appeal dismissed; Margaret A. Wilson estate, Lancaster, appeal dismissed; Wm, W. Elzea vs. Herbert H. Brown, Phila delphia, affirmed. Bv Justici Orladv —Estate of I. Newton Snivelv, Philadelphia, affirmed; Herbert DeLong vs. Lehigh Valley Transit Co.. Lehigh, affirmed. Per Curiam —Kobinson vs. Harshaw, et hi., Philadelphia, rule to advance discharged and petition dismissed; Fin frock vs. Northern Central Railway Co., York, petition denied; Mary P. Loy vs. International Mercantile Man ufacturing Co.. Philadelphia, reargu ment allowed; petition of Frank Kuss, Luzerne, petition refused; Leon Holz ami Alexander Rosenblitm vs. Charles A. Smyth, appellant, petition for rear gument refused. The last case argued was the liquor license case appeal of Beardslev from the decision of the Bradford county court. Beardslev was ane of the appli cants for a license at the last court and his license, ai were all others, was opposed on the ground that the appli cations had not beeu properly adver tised. On this ground the court re fused all of the applications. Rodney A. Mereur appeared for the appellant and argued that the Brooks high licensj law did not intend drastic action such as was taken by the court when a mis take had been made in the advertising of an application. Former Congress man Horace B. Packer, for the appellee, held that the court had simply carried out the mandate of the law and was justified in refusing the license, and quoted numerous authorities in support of his position. The court took the pa pers and will hand down an opinion at the session in Pittsburgh. No decisions were handed down in the Dauphin county cases angued this week, and they may be expected to be I heard from when the court sits in Pittsburgh two weeks from now. These . include the case of Athens George, ; proprietor of a Market street motion i picture theatre, who took an appeal from the Dauphin county court's deci sion regarding the segregation of ne- I gro patrons of his house.

Bradley, secretary of the Belmont Improvement Association, re siding at 4133 Mantua avenile, Phila- I delphia, has filed a complaint with the Public Service Commission m relation to the fares charged by the Pennsyl vania Railroad Company at me For tieth street station. It is alleged that, notwithstanding that the Fortietn street station has been a regular station for more thnu five vbars, the railroad com pany has declined to sell a single trip ticket or any other kind or a ncket between Brond street and Fortieth street and only sells a ticket entitling transportation between the Fifiv-sec ond street station and Broad street, charging fc.r that distance.

Two Attorneys Each Claim to Be High est Bidder When Property Is Knocked Down Sheriff Wells this afternoon conduct ed one of the liveliest property saies | probably since he took office three ; years ago. In one case two lawyers, bidding on the same property, each I claimed to have filed the highest bid and the Sheriff was obliged to reopen ; the sale. Five pieces of Millersburg property formerly owned by J. M. Johnson hail been bid up to $1,730 and the auc tioneer "knocked it down" to James G. Hatz. H. L.

LATE WAR NEWS SUMMARY Caatluurd from First r>(ft made another of the swift and unex pected strokes whi.'h have marked his campaign against the Russians. Gath ering a large force along the Prussian bordor in Northern Poland, he has be gun a new movement outward, appar ently intending to strike again at Przasnysz where the Germans recently met the defeat which preceded their general retirement in the north. An I important battle has developed as a result of this movement, the result of which, it is said in Petrograd, has not yet been indicated. With the. diminution of activity in Champagne, the western battle front has grown quieter. The German mili tary authorities assert that the allies have suffered a complete defeat in Champagne after undertaking an of fensive movement believed in Berlin to have been designed to relieve pres sure on the Russians. Desultory fight ing continues in Belgium, but along the eastern end of the line where there have been active and almost contiuous battles, weather conditions have en forced a temporary lull. Piriß reports tell of resumption of the Dardanelles" bombardment. It is said that the fire of some Turk ish batteries under attack slack i ened perceptibly during the engage ment. Dispatches from both Newport News and Washington Indicate that the German auxiliary cruiser Prinz Eitel Friedrich, which took refuge yes terday in Hampton Roads, will be in terned.

FIX EARLY DATE TO ADJOURN _ TO TR|CK GOVERNOR CMtliid From Ffra* Pl(*i 'Mr. Cromer, of Allegheny, who intro duced a resolution to tix March 17 a» the last day for the introduction of bills to' be acted oa at this session, pleaded \for the passage of the Baldwin resolution in the, following terms: "Let us adjourn before we pass too much fool legislation." Mr. Walter, of Franklin, asked for a postponement until Monday evening, saying that the resolution was unfair to the chairmen of the Judiciary Gen eral and 1 Jl w and Order Committees who have worked hard on important legislation and necessarily would have to be hurried on more important meas ures. v A "Kindergarten Legislature?" Mr. l«auius, of York, the blind mem ber of the House, said that at this time in the session of 1913, 1,500 bills had 4>een introduced into the House and that only 900 have been presented up to this time in the present sesiion. He said he was ashamed to go home on Wednesdays, .when recesses were taken on thait day, because his constituents thought he had run awuy from Harris burg. Mr. Soues, of Schuylkill, declared he had the same experience and persons iu Pottsville wouM say: "Back, already 1" Mr. Milliron, of Armstrong, appealed 'to the 140 new members of the House, saying that the people o>f the State ; would blame them for delays. " lj©t us show them we are not a ' kindergarten Legislature' aiul advance to the front rank before the close of the session," he said. Several members suggested working Thursdays and Fridays to complete the work. One member even went so far as to propose "seven days a week" to get through. Mr. Kitts, of Erie, said it is unfair to the men who can not got home on the week-envlß to adjourn early each week. Mr. Porster's suggestion for post ponement met with a chorus of "noes" and it was evident that a vote was to be forced on the resolution. The de bate closed when Mr. Dunn, of Phila delphia, said: \ "Look at the Democratic side of the House! They are in their seats. And look at the Republican side! It should be filled, too." A roll call on referriug the measure to the Rules Committee fell by a vote of 138 "noes" to 20 "ayes." Wit taker 's motion for a postponement was I overwhelmingly voted down ami the roll call on the passage of the resolu tion was 137 "for" and 19 "against." Representatives Wild man and Swartz, of Harrisburg, and Nissley and Young, of the Second district of D&uphin county, voted against referring the reso lution to committee and voted for tho passage of the resolution to tlx the date , for adjournment. MORRIS URGES DEMOCRATS Tries to luduce Legislators of That Parly to Support Brumbaugh in the Local Option Fight At the request of A. Mitchell Pal mer, Democratic National Conunittee \ man from Pennsylvania, who has been asked by Governor Brumbaugh to aid the local option cause, Democratic State Chairman Morris came to Hnrrinburg yesterday to see what he could do with the Democratic legislators. Before leaving for home last evening Chair man Morris issued the following state ment: "I came to Harrisburg primarily to consult with the Demos'rati,' members of the Legislature on the attitude of the Democratic members toward Gov ernor Brumbaugh's local option bill. 1 find that a majority l of Democratic members will stand loyally by their i party pledge and vote for local option, j "There are a number of Democratic • members opposed to local option. Sev j oral of those are members who also ran jon the Personal Liberal party ticket with Governor Brumbaugh and who, therefore, feel obligated to support tho liquor interests. I pointed out to such members as I talked with that the Democratic State organization is prac | tieally a unit for local option, that the ■ party platform demands it, that a large \ majority of Democratic voters have ex j pressed themselves in favor of it, and I that, to vote against the local option bill is simply to give aid ami comfort to the Penrose machine which, in order to keep faith with the liquor interests, must defeat the Brumbaugh bill. "I realize that in the face of grow ing popular feeling the Penrose ma chine would be only too glad to fulfill its contract with the liquor interests by delivering a few Democrats in lieu of its own Representatives. I am hope ful, however, that it will find very few Democrats foolish enough to offer themselves as victims to the liquor ring, which used every effort to defeat tho Democratic State ticket; last fall." MEASURE WOULD REDUCE NUMBER OF COUNTY EMPLOYES Reduction of the number of record ing jobs to three in counties the size of Dauphin is the purpose of a bill in troduced in the House this morning by IMr. Phillips, of Clearfield. It pro vides for the election of a Prothono tsry to act as clerk of the quarter ses sion, oyer and terminer ami uipnans' court, and a Register of Wills and a Recorder of Deeds.

A bill to rednce the remuneration of Phe receiver of school taxes in all school districts in the State outside of the first class —Harrisburg is second class —was introduced by Mr. Hnbler, Luzerne. It provides that "if 75 per cent or more of Wie school taxes paid prior t« the time when a penalty of 5 per cent, is imposed shall be paid by ten or less taxables, the compensation of the tax receiver shall be not more than one per cent, paid before the time of imposing the penalty and five per cent, upon all taxes collected after that time."
