MOVIE MEN DENY CENSOR USE OF THEIR MACHINE The hearing before the Judiciary General Committee of the Houso last night on the bill hacked by the motion picture exhibitors and film men of the State, calling for the repeal of the State censorship bill and the wiping out of the State Board of Censors, was enliv ened when J. Louis Breitinger, chief of the Board of Censors, sought to use the picture men'is machine —installed in the hall of the House for the evening— for the purpose of displaying alleged objectionable parts of films that had bet'n submitted to the censors for ap proval. The motion picture men said they were perfectly willing to let Mr. Breit ingcr use their machine if lie would dis play the complete pictures, including the censored parts, but they held that the sfiowiug alone of the censored parts, or "cut-outs," without the con text, wbuld not be fair. They argued that often a part of a picture, when lifted out of the context, would appear immoral or improper in itself, when, if the whole film were used, it would be chown that the eliminated part was necessary in forcing home a moral les ion. W. Stephen Bush, of the "Motion Picture World," of New York, for the motion picture men, said that even parts of the Bible or Shakespeare, if lifted out and read by themselves, would sound improper, but that with the context they serve an uplifting purpose. Breitinger would not agree to show the complete pictures, so Chairman Wil son, of tho House committee, announced an abrupt adjournment of the hearing. This was after 11 o'clock at night and following a long session in which the bill was discussed, chiefly from the viewpoint of its opponents. The hall was crowded wit]}. spectators, including many legislators. Among those who argued for the re peal of censorship were Samuel Wheel er, of Philadelphia; George W. Sahner, of Pittsburgh, chairman of the joint legislative committee of the exchange men and the recently formed Motion Picture Exhibitors' League of Pennsyl vania, and J. IH. Butner. Philadelphia manager of the Mutual Film Company. Those who spoke against the repeal bill were Charles E. Carpenter, a Philadel phia manufacturer, and Mrs. Semple, of Pittsburgh, president of the State Fed eration of Pennwlvania Women. Yesterday afternoon the joint com mittee of movie men met in this city and decided to keep up the fight for absolute elimination of censorship, de clining to consider a compromise. Among the members of the committee are Peter Magaro, of Harrisburg; Ben. IM. Zerr, of Reading, president of the State league; Frank A. Gould, a promi nent Reading exhibitor and newspaper man, who is publicity representative of the league, and several others, includ ing the men who spoke at the hearing last night.

FIRST DOC ENTERS CAPITOL "Donald'' Passes Guards After Dif ficulty, Then Pleads ror Anti vivisection Bill Not since the famous pig invaded the State Capitol some weeks ago has there been as much excitement caused by any one animal on the Hill as that aroused 3-esterday when "Donald," a dog belonging to Adam Barley, 320 North street, appeared in the corridors of the building. . Capitol guards objected at 'first to "Donald's" intrusion, but his part was worthily taken by members of the S. P. C. A. who accompanied him, and he was accordingly admitted. He is believed to have been the first dog who has been permitted to investigate the interior 1 of the Capitol. The object of '' Donald's'' visit was to act its an exhibit before two com mittees of the House of Representa tives. The Judiciary General Commit tee was having a hearing on bill 660, opposed to vivisection, and the Judici ary Special Committee on bill 927, the Hapgood dog bill. Before both these august bodies "Donald" gave exhibi tions, of dog tricks under the auspices of members of the State 8. P. C. A. and of the Pennsylvania Anti-vivisection Society. The purpose of the perform ances was to arouse interest in "Don ald" in particular and, therefore, sym pathy for dogs in general. "Donald's" appearance on the way to the committee rooms aroused some curiosity, and the dog soon had quite a following. Large crowds witnessed his performances before the committees. "Donald" did not succeed in prevent ing favorable action on the anti-vivisec tion bill, which will soon be reported out of committee, but was influential in having the Hapgood bill buried in com mittee. GALA NIGHT ENDS IN ARREST Edward Schraudenbaugh Charged With Discharging Firearms In City Limits A gala in one of the local hotels last night, nearly cost Edna Quigley, 203 Nectarine street, her life, w r hen Edward Schraudenbaugh snatched a gun from her and discharg ed it. Schraudenbaugh was later ar rested, charged with discharging fire arms in the city limits. The affair started when the couple along with the Quigley woman's sis ter, Mrs. Dessie Arker, with she lives, started over the Minberry street bridge. When about half way across the bridge, Mrs. Arker and Schraudenbaugh got into an argument, when, it is alleged, the latter felled the woman by a blow. A little further on he repeated the act, it is said. According to the story of the wom en they then went home and were on the second story preparing for bed, wtien Schraudenbaugh called at the house. An'gered when refused admit tance, he began banging at the door, when the Quiglev woman came down stairs with a dou'ble-barrelled shot gun when he took from her and instantly discharged it. When Policeman Bchel has arrived on the scene a few min utes later, Schraudenbaugh still held the gun in liis hands. This morning the two women call ed at the Mayor's office and wanted Schraudenbaugh released, but, instead of having their wish granted they were ordered to attend a hearing this afternoon and testify against him.

MAKES FINAL ELECTIONS POSSIBLE IN PRIMARIES s If a political organization is strong enough in the primaries to poll fifty one per cent, of the vote for candi dates it iB backing for Mayor and City Commissioners in third class cities there will be no contest for the general elec tion under an amended Senate bill re ported out iu the House this morning | from the committee on Municipal Cor porations. The bill, introduced in the Senate and passed by that branch, provided that in the event of a candidate for Mayor of a third class city polling fifty-one per cent, of the votes iu the primaries he would be declared elected without a contest at the general elec tion. This measure was amended in the House committee to include also candidates for City Commissioners. As'the Clark commission form of government bill now stands, two can didates for .Mayor and eight for Com missioners must go before the electors at the general election, the men running being those having received the highest numbers of votes in the primaries. While the election is on a non-par tisan plan and all candidates are voted for at the primaries irrespective of their political affiliations yet it would be possible tor a political party to get through a slato for all the offices at the primaries and do away with a contest at the general election. The bill as amended in the House will, if it passes the House, will have to go back to the Senate for concur rence in the House Committee's amend ment before it goes to the Governor for his signature.

AMERICAN LOST AS FALABA SANK Caatlnaed From First I'll*. ama Railroad Company from 1909 to 1913 and in 1914 h e worked in Ecu ador on the staff of C. E. Roberta, chief engineer of the Guayaquil Quito Rail road. Traded With New York Bankers New York, March 31.—Leon Chester Thrasher, who was among the Falaba's passengers who perished, lived in Hard wick, Mass., before going to England. His mother, Mrs. M. I* Thrasher, lives there now. The Eastman Dillion ers of this city, transacted business with Mr. Thrasher and received from him a number of letters from time to time, the last being written at Ply mouth, England, February 16. The firm did not know whether he was an American 'citizen but thought he was. Some of Mr. Thrasher's letters to his mother, it was said, were forwarded to her through the firm. In one of these letters, written early in the year, Mr. Thrasher said he had finished* with the Gold Coast and thought he would re turn to Hardwick within a short time. Informs Mother of Home Coming "You can expect to see me within two or three months," was the word he sent his mother, as recalled by a representative of the banking firm. Little is known here of Mr. Thrash er's personal affairs. The bankers had corresponded with him at intervals, they said, while he was out of the country and on one occasion had trans mitted to him money sent from 'abroad for him to go to the Gold Coast. It was thought that he was unmarried. In his last letter to the firm, Mr. Thrasher wrote: "You can write me at 27 Cartwright Gardens street, Pancras, London, W. C." This was the address given by Thasher when he filled out the passport form in England. Washington, March 31. —No report of the death of Leon C.

Check Blaze in Wonnleysburg Expert work of the members of the Wormleysburg Fire Company probably averted what would have lesulted in a disastrous blaze late yesterday after noon when a fire started in the home of Mrs. Jesse Casey. The house is sit uated near the center of a row of frame dwellings, the fire starting in the rear, said to be caused by a defective flue. The loss is estimated at SSO. 00 COUCH'S WORK AGAIN: WANT $4lO Caallnurd From First Pmsm. lowance. No decision was reached up \ to 3 o'clock. It was said, however, that the auditors propose to sue for their money. Reigel said Cassel put his name to the report following the close of the work last evening. Cassel was not to be found when the report was tiled, this morning. "Did Cassel not aid in compiling' t!i<> report and making the audit!" Reigel wan asked. "He was here a couple of times, and looked at it, but that is all he did," was the reply. Cassel is credited by County Control ler Gough, who was the auditors' of ficial timekeeper, with having paid eight visits to the room in which the 1914 audit was made, his stays rang ing from 23 minutes to 1 liour and 54 minutes. Cassel Not Paid for 1813 Cassel has not yet been paid for services he rendered on the 1913 audit. The County Commissioners several months ago decided to allow him a lit tle more than S3O, but he never gave assurance that he would accept that amount, having previously submitted a bill for a larger sum. The days Huston and Reigel spent on the audit, according to Gough, av eraged between six and seven hours. k When they presented bills for services on the 1913 audit the County Commis sioners paid them upon the basis of eight hours constituting a working day. The totals on the report filed to-day correspond with those of the first, an nual statement of County Controller Gough, which was issued within a week after the close of the new year. As the terms of office of the present board of auditors expire this year and as their positions are then abolished toy the legislation which created the of fice of County Controller, useless though costly audit boards hereafter, in so far as Dauphin county is concerned, will be but a matter of history. The Controller now is doing all the work that the au ditors have been doing, and a good deal besides. FINANCE NEW YORK STOCK EXCHANGE QUOTATIONS. Furnished by H. W. Snavcly, Broker.
