CITY COUNCIL WILL TAKE DEFIN-
ITE ACTION AT IT'S MEETING
MONDAY NIGHT.
Minor Business was Transacted at the
Session Last Night-New Paving
VIII be Considered Monday.

The city council will again shortly
| call up the matter of ordering new
sidewalks built in certain districts of
Moscow, owners having already been
notified that cement walks be install
ed. The matter was taken up dur
ing the winter but on the plea of cold
weather, the council permitted the
old walks to remain pending the ar
rival of spring. The matter was
brought up at the meeting last night
and it is understood definite action
will be taken at the meeting Monday
night.
Considerable other minor business
was conducted last night The coun-
Gil refused to grant the petition of
Julia A. Moore for the elimination
from the city limits of about 25 acres
in the western part of the city, the
plea having been made that because
of the location near the tract of the
septic tank that. it was undesirable
for residential purposes and should
not be subject to the city tax.
The council granted the petition of
C. l.. ButterfieId and B. l.. French for
the vacation of an alley in block "B"
from c to D streets owing to the space
not being accessible to the public for
traffic. The petition of c. L. Curtis

Disapprove Standard Weight Loaf.

SAN FRANCISCO, What the weight
of loaf of bread should be was a
question put up here today to the
board Of supervisors.
Bakers are protesting against the
fixing of any definite weight, asserting
it would do away with all competition.
1t was also developed that until the
government fixed standard for bread
that it will not help the consumer
much for the reason that the amount of
water that can be put into bread varies
from 28 to so per cent.

SECOND CONCERT SUNDAY
University String Quartet VIII Again
Be Heard In Chamber Music Next
Sunday Afternoon.

The great audience that gathered in
the university auditorium to hear the
first chamber music concert three
weeks ago was a striking testimonial
to the need of such an addition to the
cultural advantages offered by the uni
versity. And the hearty applause that
followed each number and the words
of praise and appreciation that follow
ed the concert form an equally striking
testimonial to the merits of the per-
formance. Surely it is no slight ac-
hievement to take three boys, none
of whom was familiar with the del
icacies and subtleties of quartet-play-
ing and none of whom had heard even
a single fine performance of a string
quartet, and in few weeks time to
train them so as to enable tfcm to
rlay the best quartets by the greatest
masters with notable ease and pre-
cision. Yet this Is what has been
accomplished by Mrs. Hughes. the
violin instructor at the university.
The audience at the second concert
which takes place next Sunday alter
noon, April 5, at 4 o'clock, will doubt
less be even larger than that which
to the first concert. The pro-
gram for next Sundays concert is
most attractive. 1t consists Of a
quartet by Mozart and oil" by Beet
hoven; a composition by the most mel
odious Of all composers and one by
the most soulful of all composers; one
of the silvery dawn and one of the
golden sunset.
1t is requested that the audience sit
as far front as possible since only
.hus will it be possible, owing to the
character of the auditorium, to en-
oy to the fullest extent the delicate
md intimate character of the music.
To you, then, who shall be there, .
Iozart, the poet Of hope and the sing
# of the most spontaneous and dewey
ongs in all the wide realm of music,
will speak. And to you will speak,
lso, Beethoven, than whom no other
omposer ever sounded the depths of
he human soul more deeply.

fore the clerk of the district court,

registrar of the county and to whom
all reports of registrations are sent.
The law provides that the county
board shall fix the compensation for
registrars. The price may be placed
at any amount up to 25 cents per
name. Last year the compensation
was 15 cents each for the first 100 and
10 cents for each name thereafter. The
registration books will be closed 80
days before the primaries.

Defendant Reported Dead When
Case Is Brought Before
the Grand Jury

The Dauphin county grand jury to-
day didn't need to act in the case
of the Commonwealth of Pennsyl-
vania against G. w. Kreiger; the
higher law beat man-made law to
the decision by several weeks.
Kreiger had been dead for some days
before January quarter sessions began.
That is why the grand jury
simply reported mo true bill' to-day
and marked defendant dead"
1.-THE grand jury should say upon
whom the costs are to be placed,
however" said President Judge Kun
kel in receiving the report. The
county, of course, will likely have to
pay the bill.

KRE|DER OPPOSES
PROPOSED SHOE LAWS
Says Defeat in All But Two
States Show Adverse
Sentiment
.Sbseial TO The Tcleproth


New York, Jan. 15.-Shoe manu-
facturers from all parts of the United
States gathered here at the annual
convention of the National Boot and
Shoe Manufacturers Association and
adopted resolutions in favor of in
creased freight rates for the railroads
and declared against the proposed
pure shoe legislation in Congress.
The resolution in favor of increased
freight rates set forth that 1.-The trans
portation system of the country Is de-
veloping at a retarded pace and the
consequent depression in the basic
iron, steel and other Industries has be-
come a leading II not the determining
factor in the general business recess
sion." s.r
A. S. Kreider. of Pennsylvania,
president Of the association, in his an
nual report, characterized the pure
shoe legislation as "ill-considered."
1T would seem to me-" he said, "if
public sentiment and the demands of
constituents are to be guides to legis-
lative action, particularly where 1t
affects industries and savors OF pater-
nalism. the defeat of these bills in all
the States Except two) in which they
have been introduced should have
proved a strong argument against the
introduction of bills along similar lines
in the House of Representatives.
mo doubt the advocates of this
legislation are well-meaning and hon.
est, but they cannot and do not realize
the injury these laws would infiict
upon the people whom they desire to
serve, nor the result upon the selling
price of the commodity affected"
Mr.. Kreider urged the members to
exert their influence upon their repre-
sentatives in Congress in favor of the
enactment of a law forbidding the
transportation of convict-made goods
in interstate commerce.
He also suggested the appointment
of a committee to ascertain the prac-
ticability of the organization of a mu-
tual association among shoe manu-

Smallpox Developed Day After
Bell Was Crashed to Pieces
on Forecastle Deck
BY Associated Press

Lewes, Del, Jan. 15.-The United
States battleship Ohio which has been
at the Delaware breakwater since
Christmas day undergoing fumiga-
ton for smallpox while members of
the crew have been under observation
at the quarantine station near here is
being prepared for sailing. The men
divisions a day. The nrst division was
taken aboard yesterday and the en-
tire crew will be aboard by Saturday
when 1t is expected the vessel will
steam up the Delaware river to Phil
adelphia. where a broken propeller
will be repaired.
Three cases of smallpox which de-
Veloped among members of the crew
since the vessel reached here are con-
valescing. The last case developed on
the second of this month. The dis
ease first appeared on the Ohio the
day after Thanksgiving day, when the
vessel was at Marseilles. Before arriv-
ing here one victim was buried at sea,
twenty cases, seven suspects and at
tendants were transferred to the de-
tention camp at Guantanamo, Cuba,
and four cases to the quarantine sta
ton at Charleston, S. C. Two of the
cases transferred at Charleston are
reported to have since died, while
three deaths are said to have occurred
at Guantanamo bay detention camp.
Marines and sailors here point to
the breaking of the ships bell at Mar
seilles at the beginning of their run
OF hard luck which has resulted in five
deaths from smallpox and the spend
ing of the Christmas furlough of the
remaining members of the crew in
quarantine. According to an old su-
perstition among sailors the breaking
of bell Is a sure harbinger Of ill
luck. While a dance was in progress
at Marseilles on Thanksgiving day, the
bell, weighing along 400 pounds fell to
the forecastle deck with crash. The
next day q case of smallpox DEVELOPED.

GET STIFF TERMS
IN PE|v|TE|VT|ARY
From Three to Five Years For
Mendel Gross and Flor
ence Miller

Mendell Gross, ex-convict in at lea ST
TWO different States prisons TO-DAY
was sentenced to a long term in a
third.
Gross and his companion, Florence
Miller, were sentenced by Judge W.
Rush Gillian in the Dauphin County
Court to serve from three to five years
In the Eastern penitentiary for pan
dering.
The sentences, so far as the mini
mum time of servitude imposed is
concerned, are the stiffest doled out
thus far In. January quarter sessions.
An extraordinary criminal record
was produced against Gross by Col.
Joseph B. Hutchison, chief of police.
Newark, New York Kansas CITY. a
city or two in Colorado, Los Angeles
San Francisco, Washington, d. c.,
and Seattle were among the cities of
the country in which Gross has been
in police tolls
For five years he served in the
New Jersey States prison at Trenton:
for five years he wore the stripes of
the New York State prison at Sing
Sing. The report of Colonel Hutchi-
son covered varying periods dating
from 1885 when Gross was first inn
prisoned on larceny charge on down
to 1912 when he was arrested by the
police of the nations capital. In ad-
dition to his States prison record
Gross has spent months and months
of his life in various jails of the coun-
try and for a while he was confined
in New Jersey institution for the
criminal insane.
The insanity plea was offered as a
basis for request for leniency. but
Judge Gillian grimly held that not
only did the law provide a way to
determine suspected insane person.
but-that the authorities at the East
ern penitentiary had the right and
power to inquire into the alleged in
sanity of any inmate.
Judge Gillian indicated his attitude
soon after Gross and the Wilson
woman were arraigned. What do
you want? What do you wish to
ask?" he demanded of w. J. Carter.
of counsel for Gross.
I'VE only want to ask your honor
to be as lenient as possible-and to
impose a jail sentence, rather than a
term in the penitentiary-''
We'll. we won't" promptly cut in
the court.
Assistant District Attorney Robert
Fox called attention to the fact that
tho Wilson woman had painstakinrlv

These Lost in Mazes
of Commission Govt

Harrisburg, which had been pointed
and commended under the old form
of city government as the one model
of the third-class cities of Pennsyl-
vania. is rapidly becoming the mecca
of city official pilgrims from all over
the State who want to learn "just
how to run the city government under
the commission form of government"
To-day the city entertained another
caller. This was e. U. Sewers, city
superintendent of accounts and finance
Of Lebanon. He put in a portion of
the day with City Clerk Charles A.
Miller and then visited the Office of
Superintendent of Finance and Ac-
counts W. l.. Gorgas. Harrisburg will
be the only place he will visit he said
as he can learn all he wishes right
here.
