SHOW GIRLS HOW To
AVOID WHITE SLAYER
Film at Majectic Splendid Lesson
to Girls, Say Ministers
Who Saw 1t

During the three days that the
Traffic in Souls" pictures have been
running at the Majestic Theater there
have been enough comments on the
attraction of sufficiently varying ma
ture to prove that people are of many
minds on the matter of white slavery
and morality.
While the majority of people who
have seen the pictures pronounce 1T a
splendid warning to girls who are
sometimes too easily misled through
flattery and false promises, there are
others who assert themselves that les
sons of this kind should be taught in
the home and not by moving picture
that shows the trapping of an innocent
girl
Several ministers and clergymen
have been among those who thus far
have seen the picture. and even there
are usually at odds, although not so
as with the one recently put on in the
same theater called THE Inside of the
White Slave Traffic"
There is a vast difference between
this picture and the one that was
stopped, although it deals with the
white slave subject and carries a
pretty girl through chain of rather
horrifying experiences. Many of those
who saw the picture early in the week
have returned with others to whom
they had recommended it.
1T is splendid picture and every

morning, higher than it has been dur
ing most of the winter. The quick
rise of two feet yesterday and the clos
ing of the stream was due to some OBJ
struction in the river below the city.
Harrisburg and most of the Susque-
hanna valley was the center of the
cold last night. While the storm
which was expected to bring snow
here some tim to-day, took a sea voy-
voyage unexpectedly, a cold wind from
the southern storm blew up the Sus-
quehanna valley and lowered the tenn
perature ten degrees below the mer-
curry readings in other sections of the
East. 1t was cold all over the country
last night, but east of this city along
the Atlantic coast the temperature
was considerably higher than here.
For tomorrow the forecast is fair
and warmer, but the warmer means
only ten degrees or SO. The storm
which was expected went out to sea
in northeastwardly direction, caus-
ing rise of temperature along the
coast, but with not strength enough
to influence the weather this far in
land. And the prospects are for con-
tinued cold.

Increase I'm Coal Cost
! Since the bills to open navigation
| and prevent the ultimate closing of
the Susquehanna to navigation were
introduced by me last October, ex-
presslons of approval have been re-
ceived from numerous trade bodies
and businessmen in Pennsylvania and
Maryland.
During the operation of the

land, hard coal was sold here in Bal
time for $3.50 per ton, whereas now
1t is sold for $3.50 to $500. Thirteen
years ago coal sold here for S5 to Sc
per ton and the cost of mining has not
increased in proportion.
IF the 100000 tons of coal
mined annually along the river above
and below Wilkes-Barre were moved
to those points, (referring to Balti-
more, Md, Wilmington, Del, Wash
ington, D. c., and Philadelphia, Pa.),
said Farley Gannett, engineer of the
Water Supply Commission of Penn
syivania in an address before the En-
gineers Society of Pennsylvania, in
April, 1911, the transportation there
on would amount to approximately
S70,00O,000 per year, at an average
rate of s1.75 per long tone. If rate of
90 per cent. of that charged by the
railroad were fixed for the water
borne traffic, a gross income of $685.
100000 would be insured, together
with a net saving on the transportation
of another s35,000,000.'
I'm the light of these facts it would
seem to be an act of' simple Justice
to revoke the ruling of the War De-
partment SO that the Susquehanna
river may hereafter be treated as a
navigable stream free TO the people Of

BECKER IS READY TO
LEAVE DEATH HOUSE
District Attorney Whitman Is Still
Undecided Regarding An
other Trial
STAR WITNESSES PREPARED
Rose. Vallon and Schepps Tell
Their Attorney They Will
Testify if Called Upon
STAR WITNESSES PREPARED

New York. Feb. 26.-Formal order
of the Court of Appeals permitting the
removal of Charles Becker from the
death house at Sing Sing Prison to
the Tombs in this city. preparatory to
q new trial on the charge of instigat-
ing the murder of Herman Rosenthal,
was filed here to-day. 1t was expected
that Becker would eat his dinner to-
night in the Tombs.
The last day of Charles Becker's 8
stay in the death house and Sing Sing
Prison was to-day gladdened by visit
from his wife. Owing to the death of
her mother, whose funeral was held
yesterday, Mrs. Becker was prevented
from going to the prison on Tuesday
when news of the Court of Appeals
decision, granting her husband a new
trial for the murder of Herman Ros-
enthal, was announced from Albany.
Carries Clothing
Mrs Becker brought suit of
clothes and clean linen that her hus-
band may leave the prison in other
than the clothing furnished to depart
ing prisoners. 1t was expected that
Griffenhagen would take Becker back
to the TombS late to-day or tomorrow
morning where he will be confined
pending the final disposition of his
case.
Whether Becker will be tried again
as the instigator of the murder of
Rosenthal, the gambler, is still prob
lematic. Charles S. Whitman, the dis
trict attorney, said he is asNyet unde-
cided as to what course to pursue. His
desire is to have a second trial on the
murder charge but before he reaches
a decision he wishes to make a thor
ough study of the opinion of the Court
of Appeals.
Jack Rose, Harry Vallon and Sam
Schepps. three. of the four star wit
nesses for the prosecution, saw their
counsel, Bernard Sander, yesterday,
and through him informed the district
attorney that they stood ready to take

points, have deposited their tickets
and stopped over in Harrisburg for
intervals ranging from five to ten days.
In addition to these visitors from the
Pacific coast 1t is estimated that on
other tickets stop-over privileges have
been granted to $4,000 visitors, many
of whom remained the full ten-day
limit allowed for a stop-over.
Handles Big Rush
Since coming to this city Mr.. Buch-
anan has been constantly showing his
live wire tendencies. The big rush OF
veterans to Gettysburg during the en-
campment last July was handled by
"A. E. Buchanan, who established tenn
porary official headquarters at Gettys-
burg, and with the aid of the Penn
sylvania transportation and motive
power experts took care of a record
movement without a single accident.
Harrisburg was one of the principal
centers for distribution of the many
thousand travellers.
Caring for 5000 corn boys and Visi-
tors from Ohio, in December, was also
a part OF Mr.. Buchanans first year S
duties. These visitors from the Buck
eye" State were handled safely and
promptly under his direction. Travel
ing men who have occasion to use the
Cornwall and Lebanon Railroad, and
travel on mileage books now have
their baggage checked through, and
have their mileage books honored
without any extra charge. This privi-
lege was also secured through the ef-
forts of Mr.. Buchanan, and is appre-
ciated mostly by the many Harrisburg
ers who reside at Mt. Gretna during
the summer months.

exception of some half dozen houses.
