NO DRINKS
HEREAFTER
ON PENNSY
Early Order Bans Liquors
From Lines East Of
Pittsburgh
COMPANY WILL MAKE
RULING GENERAL LATER

The sale of all intoxicating liquors
on Pennsylvania Railroad trains run
ming on lines east of Pittsburgh. has
been discontinued. Similar action
will be taken in the near future on
all other lines of the Pennsylvania
system. This was announced yes
terday at the Office of Traffic Manager
Wood.
The decision Of the railroad to
abandon the sale of intoxicants in
Pullman aud dining cars is indirectly
due to the efforts of the Anti-Saloon
League in this State. State Super
lntendent Charles w. Carroll, of Har-
risburg. yesterday said that while
the company had entered into no
agreemet to stop liquor traffic on its
lines with the league, there had been
negotiations looking toward that end.
Sale Involves Legal Question.
At the Office of Traffic Manager
Wood it was said that the manage
ment OF the Pennsylvania Railroad
recognized the fact that there was "a
legal question involved in liquor
sales on trains, and that after much
consideration it was decided that
there was but one solution of it,
eliminating all liquors from dining
car and Pullman service.
That the Anti-Saloon League had
any hand in having the company ar
rive at such a decision was not ad-
mitted. 1t was said that there had
been no special agitation, although
the question has always bee one OF
much discussion between railroads
and the league. The latter undoubt-
edly eXerted certain amount of in
auence, it was said
In a conversation over the tele-
phone yesterday superintendent Car.

successful in having a great many

addition to the demoralizing influence
OF such a parctice,n he said the com.
panies were continually breaking tn,
laws, as not one of them carried {
license TO sell intoXicants" He pre-
dicted that IN the near future every
railroad in she country will be-
dry
The legal question involved in /;
railroad company serving liquor OF
trains is complicated one. Mos
of this liquor is sold in transit ant
on through trains. 1t would be i'm
possible for any company TO obtaii
a license which would permit it t.
sell drinks to patrons in every Stat
through which its trains pass Train
pass through many counties whicl
are under local option rule and il
which il is an offense to sell liauor
Small Profits in the Sales.
The elimination Of liquor from tn
menu of dining car will have it'll
effect on the revenues of the Penn
sylvania Railroad Company. Th
profits from drinks served have al
ways been small and il was said yes

Dental nomination. was the statement
of Governor Wilson today. He made
IL plain that while be welcomed the
many visitors who called to pledge
support and was glad that they came
he believed he would have to secure
absolute quiet so that he could get
these important matters out of the
way. The Governor said that he ex-
pected 10 confer with National Chair
man McCombs tomorrow. and that the
treasurer and vice-chairman Of the
National Committee would then be
announced. It is generally believed
that Henry Mergenthal Of New York.
will be treasurer and that William
G. McAdoo will be vice-chairman. The
Governor said that his running mate.
Governor Thomas r. Marshall. of
Indiana, Will not come to visit him
next Saturday as had been planned
The entire Democratic House repre-
sentauon is to come here at that time
and because Wilson wants to talk the
campaign over at length with the
Indiana executive he has been asked
to defer his visit to a later date.
The Governor said today that he
will have public announcement
soon regarding his intentions in the
New Jersey governorship matters. He
wants to consult with his campaign
manager and with New Jersey friends.
he said, before he decides whether
he will retain his Office or resign.
1T is generally expected that he will
resign as there are plenty of pre-
cedents, the most noteworthy being
in the case of Grover Cleveland,
where a presidential candidate re-
tanned his office until after the presi-
Dental election.

PINE NEEDLES HIDE BODY;
MAN MURDERED YEAR AGO

sOMERSwoRTH. n. H.. July H.
Almost buried beneath pine needles in
a grove of the Rochester road, the
local police found the body of a man
believed 10 have been murdered over
a year ago.
The discovery Of two hats beside
the body, one of which fitted the head
of the dead man and the other much
larger, has led to the belief that the
one clue to the murder lies in the
large hat, the inscriptions and ini-
tials on the inside OF which will not
be divulged by the police until they
can make their preliminary investi-
cation.
The body OF the dead man has not
vet been identified. The clothing is
bleached almost white.

extremely hard in the past four years in half dozen
contests to the ground they lost in 1908 and
10000 in the first local option contests, they have
net succeeded. Everybody knows they have done
their best, and spent vast of money, and have
organized to the last Degree for the turning back Of
the temperance tide in Illinois. They have failed
Both Sides Realized the Importance of the
Primary Vote.
But the Primary victory of April 9 was the most
important that has been recorded in local option
history for many year. For months the liquor inter-

the Primary April would be the biggest factor in
deciding the contest county option at the next

hercely; organized effort put into it on both
sides than before, and the result emphasizes the
Tuesday, for it shows that anti-saloon sentiment is
surely advancing.
The result is vindcaton of the methods of the
