Views of War Situation
From Edinburgh Paper

Edward Bailey, president of the
Harrisburg Trust Company, who Is
still in Scotland, has sent the Tele-
graph recent issues of the Edinburgh
Scotsman. from which the following
extracts are made:
An official announcement came from
Copenhagen on Tuesday that Denmark
can continue to supply England with
from 10000 to 10000 hogs and the
same number of hundredweights of
butter per week. There will there
fore be no shortage In the usual
supply.
IT was also stated that so far as the
stocks of butter are concerned the war
could not have come at better time,
as at the greatest producing period OF
the year nearly all merchants covered
themselves for the time of shortage
during the end of October and the
beginning of December, before the
colonial supplies arrive. Prices are
not likely to be lowered, however, as
the shipment of the big supplies from
Russia and Siberia is impossible.
There is a comfortable supply for six
weeks to two months.
The Board of Agriculture and Fish
cries state that the wheat crop is not
only 10 per cent. larger than in 1913,
but is we'll above the average of the
last ten years. The crop of beans is
the largest since 1907, whilst that of
potatoes is only slightly below that of
last year, which was the largest on
record.
A prominent Billingsgate salesman
said 1t was expected that business
would resume its normal course next
week when large quantities of fish
would probably come in from the West
of England, where the steam trawlers
were landing their catches. The best
fish was likely to remain cheap owing
to the stoppage of the export trade.
One good thing, he added, might re-
suit from the war. The North Sea,
which had been fished incessantly for
forty years, would get much needed
rest. with the result that when op-
erations were resumed in those waters
there would be enormous quantities
of fish In his view, there is every
indication that fish this winter will be
remarkably cheap.
No Fear for Food Supply
IT is reassuring to know (says the
Times) that the best informed are the
least appprehensive about the security
of our food supplies. In official and
other circles familiar with the facts
there is complete tranquility.
One result of the closing of the
North Sea trade will be that cargoes
which would have gone to Germany
will be intercepted to swell British
supplies. Although Germany takes
most of her 100000 worth of inn
ported wheat from Russia, the guam
tity that can be diverted to English
ports is not inconsiderable.
1t is understood (says the Times)
that by order of the king and queen
plain, simple living is the ordinary
daily rule at the royal table.

LEWIS SPEAKING
To THE CHANGERS
The Dean and Pinchot Did Not
Have Amy Fusion Conferences
Here This Morning

William Draper Lewis, Washington
party candidate for Governor, and
Clifford Pinchot, the partys candidate
for United States senator, went through
Harrisburg this morning on their way
to Williams Grove. where they are
speaking this afternoon. They will
return to the city this evening and
attend the Washington party banner
raising and then address a mass meet
ing in Market Square. Both are cam
paigning vigorously and have refused
to discuss fusion at all.
The candidates went through to
Williams Grove after very short visit
to the city and did not have any con-
ferences with Democrats as reported
Tonight Congressman A. Mitchell
Palmer. the Democratic candidate for
senator. and State Chairman Roland S.
Morris will meet with Vance C. McCor-
mick. the Democratic candidate for
Governor, and the presence of the
standard bearers of the Democrats
and Washingtonians in the city this
evening has given rise to much talk
of fusion. Dean Lewis has refused to
discuss it and yet there are many who
believe that il is probable within a
month, although It will not matter
much, as this is a Republican year.
Lewis and PinChot are the first of
the State candidates to speak at the
Grangers. Tomorrow Palmer and
Mccormick will speak and Thursday
Brumbaugh and Penrose.

"Aigle, in the Rhone Valley, has been
transformed into camp. Sunday saw

COPS REINSTATEMENT
ST|RS ALL STEE[TON
Burgess Testifies He Discharged
Officer For Drunkenness and
Neglect of Duty

In Steelton municipal circles this
morning but little was talked of but
the dismissal by Burgess Fred Wig
field and the subsequent reinstate-
ment last evening by the councilmanic
police committee of Clinton Jones as
a patrolman on the local police force.
The facts in the case are these:
Jones was dismissed by Burgess Wig
field last week on the charges of
neglect of duty and the loss of un-
necessary time" He requested hear
Ing before the police committee and
MS request was granted.
AT the hearing Saturday evening
Burgess Wigfield asserted that Jones
was under the influence of LIQUOR when
dismissed; that he lost too much time
and that he left outside business as a
mem Der of the firm of Jones G. Moul-
ton interfere with his duties as a pa
troJman. Jones denied all the charges
He was also accompanied by DR.. C. H.
CHAMPION, a physician, who testified
that the patrolman had been under
his care for eight months and that he
was subject to cramps. The hearing
was adjourned until last evening.
Burgess Has Witnesses
At last evenings hearing the bur-
CESS produced two witnesses to sub
stantiate his charge. Charles Gordon,
chauffeur. testified that he saw the
patrolman under the influence of
hquor when he was supposed to be
sick. In reply to a question by Chair
man Nelly, Gordon admitted that he
did not speak to Jones at the time.
Chairman Nelly then ruled out his
evidence on the ground that it was
insufficient evidence" and because
the patrolman might have had cramps.
William Dickson, another witness,
testified that Jones told his wife, who
is the patrolman's cousin, that he in
tended TO quit the force because he in
tended to purchase an automobile and
because his team made a living for
him. This evidence was ruled out by
Chairman Nelly as being "hearsay
evidence Burgess Wigfield then tes-
titled that the patrolman was under
the influence of liquor when dismissed.
