Event at Lewistown
Special to The Telegraph

Lewistown, Pa, Sept. Saturday
was firemen's annual field day and
the boys turned out in full force and
made a big showing. Firemen were
present from all surrounding towns.
Bands from Yeagertown. McVeytown,
McAllisterville, Burnham, Shamokin,
Alfarata and Lewistown made plenty
of music. In the morning there was a
parade of firemen in handsome uni
forms, bands, floats filled with women
and children, auto hose carts decorat-
led In attractive designs and colors,
automobiles bearing the chief of the
fire department, Thomas Johnson and
other citizens, autos loaded with old

GERMAN CAMPAIGN
PLAN A MYSTERY
Army of Invasion From North
Turns From Paris and Drives
Toward South and East

London, Sept. Z, 1.10 A. M.-The
German plan of campaign is for the
moment a mystery. The great sweep
through Belgium and the plains of
Northern France. with constant reach
ing on the west to turn the left flank
of the allies. was understandable and
foreseen, even though the allies re-
fused to believe the Germans could
move so far and fast.
Yesterdays bulletins stating that the
main German army of invasion from
the north was turning away from
Paris and driving toward the south
and east appeared to be confirmed and
a theory that finds supporters is that
the German purpose is now to strike
through the center of the French
army. leaving Paris partially invested
from the north, and crush the main
French force by cooperation with an
other German army advancing from
Lorraine.
The news that the Germans are at
tacking the fortress of Nancy and that
Emperor William, with his staff is
attending operations tends to fortify
this theory. The British war office
made public yesterday q more COM
British army than 1t had given here
tofore. While this bulletin was far
from satisfying the eagerness of the
people for a detailed description of the
parts the different regiments played in
the heavy and continuous fighting. 1t
sent a thrill of pride through the
kingdom.
Fighting at Verdun
The belief is growing that a great,
decisive battle is being fought at Ver-
dun, the strong fortress of France, on
the Meuse near the French frontier.
If the fourth German army, march,
ing southwark. cuts off the retreat of
the French eastern armies which re-
Gently have been holding the Germans
in check between Toul. a fortified town
fourteen miles west of Nancy. and
Epinal. also strongly fortified and near
the Alsacian frontier. 1t might repeat
the coup which in 1870 drove General
Charles Denis Sauter Bourbaki and
his army of 10000 men into Switzer-
land.
Hopeful critics are speculating on
the possibility that the German swing
around to the south may mean an
effort on the part of the invaders to
make sure of their retreat through the
Meuse district, but more likely it is a
scheme to strike such a paralyzing
blow to the French army as to render
the investment of Paris a safe op-
Grafton.

POPE BENEDICT ".
DONS PAPAL CROWN
Pontifical Court, Roman Aristoc-
racy and POntiff's Family
Witness Ceremony
Sbceidl to The Telcsrdth

Rome, Sept. THE coronation of
Pope Benedict XIV. took place yester-
day in the Sistine Chapel. The cere-
mony was imposing in its solemnity.
The Sistine Chapel was used for the
occasion in order to avoid pomp during
the war. The entire Pontifical court,
numbers of the Roman aristrocracy
and the family of the Pontiff were
present.
The scene, with Pope Benedict seat
ed in the sedia gestatoria, preceded by
the bearers of the triple crown and
f1ankeG by the bearers of the cele-
brated feather fans and so Cardinals
in their full vestments. was a striking
one. When the ceremony ended the
Pope was received with loud acclaim
by those present.
Later in the day Pope Benedict re-
ceived, successfully, in private audi
ence Cardinals Gibbons, Farley and
O'Connell, who presented their suites
and some American friends.
Presented by Cardinal Gibbons,
Pope Benedict XIV. to-day received
in private audience, Marquis Martin
Maloney. of Philadelphia, who thus
has been the first American layman
who has spoken to the new Pontiff.
Pope Benedict was kindness itself,
and spoke affably to Marquis Maloney,
saying he knew how much the Phila-
delphiau had done in behalf of the
Church, and impaired to him and his
family the apostolic benediction. He
also blessed many rosaries which Mar
quis Maloney is taking to friends in
America, these being the first objects
consecrated by the Pope for America
Marquis Maloney is the first Papal
private chamberlain to be confirmed
by Pope Benedict:

300 RESCUED FROM
SHIP SUNK BY MINE
-Four Trawlers Near Scene of Ex-
plosion Save Lives of
Passengers

Grimsby, England via London, Sept.
7, $50 A. M,-Nearly 800 persons
rescued from the Wilson liner Runo
by trawlers when the steamship sank
in the North Sea, victim of a con-
tact mine at 4 o'clock Saturday after
noon, were landed at Grimsby and
Hull on Sunday. The prompt work of
four trawlers saved the lives of nearly
all those on board. Wilson Line off,
cials say that all the crew and pas
sengers are safe. The Silaencer picked
12S survivors. practically all she could
hold. The Cameo saved nearly a hun
dred and the other two trawlers sew
enty.
The Runo was bound from Hull on
the long trip across the North Sea to
Archangle and her passengers were
mostly Russians from America who
were returning to Russia with their
women and children.
The Runo when she struck the
mine Immediately tilted at an angle
which made 1t diff1cult to launch the
Iifeboats. Only two were launched,
survivors said, and these, after reach
ing the water. were both overturned
by the frightened people trying to get
into them.

American Labor Will
Benefit as War Result
Special TO The TELEGRAPH

Philadelphia, Sept. I. - American
labor will be greatly benefited. ac-
cording to local labor leaders, through
the war in Europe. Every trade and
industry in this country, they say. will
make enormous demands on the labor
markets for help. In few months
they may exhaust the supply, particu-
iariy as immigration has been reduced
by the war.
While there will be ample work for
men In most lines, some leaders seem
to feel that the high cost of COM
mooltles Will Offset the benefits they
might otherwise obtain. Labor lead
ers, it is understood are planning a
new national movement to organize
men and women in every industry.
one class of workers who have suf-
fered are those employed along water
fronts and in shipping centers. In the
textile industry there is a temporary
lull, largely due to the lack of dye-
stuIls, which are imported principally
from Germany.
Conditions in the building trades
nave been normal and few men have
suffered through lack of work.
George H. Uhlrich, president of the
Central Labor Union, was of the opin-
Ion that the war will increase the de-
mands for labor. "I cannot see," he
said, why any SLOPES or factories
should not be running on full time
conditions at present, however, are
not any better among the laboring
classes than they were prior to the
war, but subsequent events will of
necessity bring better conditions to
all. At present there are a number
out of employment in the miscella-
neous trades, but they will be provided
with work in from three to six
months time. The miscellaneous
trades include cigarmakers, hatmak-
ers shoemakers, textile workers and
garment workers, and there is no rea-
son why any one in those industries
should be idle. Better times will ar
rive In the event of the war lasting any
length of time"
Leonard Kraft. secretary of the AL
lied Building Trades, asserted that
conditions will be improved along all
lines of industry. Every one of the
laboring class will be benefited, he
said, within a few months.
