REV. GRAULEY MAY
GO To PHILADELPHIA
Steelton Minister Has Been Force
For Good During His
PastOrate

The Rev. ]. Z. Grauley, pastor of
the First Methodist church, the larg-
est congregation in the borough, will
probably preach his last sermon as q
minister of this congregation to-mor-
row.
With the convening of the Metho-
dist conference Tuesday there is a
strong possibility that the Rev. Mr..
Grauley will be placed in another
charge probably one of those in Phila-
deIphia.
Since coming to Steelton several
years ago, the Rev. Mr. Grauley has
been instrumental in greatly increas-
ing the membership of the local
church. During his pastorate the new
church at Fourth and Pine streets has
been built. This is one of the finest
edifices in Steelton.
The Rev. Mr.. Grauley has been a
leader in many of the movements for
good in the borough and is force
full, aggressive minister. His work
here has been of caliber to attract
attention from the larger congrega-
tions. He has been requested TO preach
a sermon in the Tloga Methodist
Episcopal church, Philadelphia. Sun
day, March 20. Tioga church is one
of the largest i'll Philadelphia.

RAILROADS
PREFERENCE TRAFFIC
SHOWS AN INCREASE
Marysville Had First Big Week in
a Long Time; Cars
Moved

Further evidence that the freight
business on the Pennsylvania Rail-
road Is on the increase is shown In
q report from the Marysville prefer
ence yards, showing the number of
cars and trains handled for the week
ending March IL to be 20.721.
This is an increase of 1000 cars
over the business handled during this
previous week. To take care of this
business, 672 trains were necessary
The busiest day was March s, when
d09 trains hauled 3,613 cars. While
this movement was not a record
breaker, 1t is the best for several
weeks. The daily movement is as
follows:
March G. Trains 1902, cars 3246;
&, trains, 95; cars, 2,S51; trains,
400; cars, 3,613: 8. trains. 10; cars,

Baggage In Aisles Costly.-The
Pennsylvania Railroad last year paid
out S5,143.4o on account of acci-
dents to passengers who tripped over
other passengers grips placed in the
afsles on passenger trains. That is
one of the reasons why the Company
tnstructs its trainmen not to permit
luggage to remain in the aisles of
passenger coaches.
Railroad Cops Have q Scare
Members of the police department of
the Philadelphia division of the
Pennsylvania railroad who have been
doing special duty on the New York

been discovered on one of the cars
used by the officers and that round
up was being made to ascertain
whether any vaccinations were nee
essary, or quarantine would fol-

Fortunately the Harrisburg men
had not been assigned to the car in
quarantine and they will be home to-
morrow, to the great satisfaction of
Captain Barclay, who had loaned his
officers to the New York division.
The Harrisburgers are: Edward
Phipps, William Holland, Adam Sell
lard, Lewis Peachin, Palmer Rayser,
Hiram Michaels and Stanley Howe
