Cornyn, in answer to question,
said he had left the receipts with Mr..

Breitung Admits Buying
Explosives For Use in
Blowing Up Steamers
b. d.ssncintad PrcSS

New York, Dec. 2S.-Max Breitung,
under Indictment with Robert Fay,
Dr. Herbert Kienzel, Walter Scholz
and Paul Daeche on charges OF con-
spring to blow up munition ships
leaving this country, to-day admitted
through his attorney, John B. Stanch-
field, that he bought $50 pounds of
chlorate of potash for Fay. The ad-
mission was made when Mr.. Stanch-
field moved for a separate trial for
Breitung.
Breitung purchased the potash, one
of the chief components in certain
forms of explosives, at Fay's request,
Mr.. Stanchfield said, and in so doing
acted in good faith and was entirely
innocent of any plan to destroy ships.
Decision on the motion was put over
until January 8 when decisions on
similar motions by two of the other
defendants will be rendered.
William McCulley, whose name was
first given as Robert McCauley, and
who was taken to police headquarters
at the request of Department of JUS
tice officials investigating the plot to
dynamite the Welland canal, was re-
leased to-day after having been ques-
toned by federal officials. Although
McCulley admitted having known Paul
Koenig, chief of the Hamburg-Amer-
ican Line detectives and accused by
the government of having formulated
the Welland canal plot. for five years
and having recently been in his en-
ploy as a traitor" federal officials
said there was nothing to warrant
holding the man.

WALKS 64 MILES
IN TWELVE HOURS
S. d. Plank, Aged 65. Goes
From Gettysburg to Pen
brook in Record Time

S. ID. Plank, who resides about seven
miles south Of Gettysburg and about
one mile this side of the Mason and
Dixon line. arrived in Penbrook Tues
day evening at o'clock on his third
annual trip by foot. Mr.. Plank is
SO years of age and the distance trav-
eled is sixty-four miles. He made the
trip in twelve hours.
In 1918 Mr.. Plank walked to this
city from his home in sixteen hours;
last year he made the trip in fourteen
hours. and this year he lowered his
record and reduced the time to twelve
hours. The remarkable feature of this
test of endurance Is the fact that on
Tuesday he worked ten hours at his
regular employment, that of grading
on the State highway, walking five
miles to and from work. after which
he started on his hike to this city and
Penbrook. Mr.. Plank is very active
for a man of his age and takes much
pride in his walking ability. He is the
father of Mrs. George w. Copenhaver
of Penbrook. whom he Is now visiting.

Location of Gen. Villa
Is Causing Uneasiness;
CarranzG in Juarez
By Associated Press

Eel Paso, Dec. 2S.-General Alvaro
Obregon, Carranza commander-in-
chief of Northern Mexico who ar
rived here last night from Nogales,
Sonora, said he would go 10 Juarez,
just across the border, late TO day.
Juarez passed it's first night under
Carranza control peacefully and with
less of the hustle characteristic of it's
night life. Gambling has ceased, the
disorderly resorts closed, and tho
'wickedest town in Mexico" was dull
and respectable to the average tour
list.
Constitutionalist currency issued to
the soldiers now has a purchasing
value in the stores and doubt as to
its worth has been removed.
The only uneasiness felt in the
town, shared by the de facto govern
ment officials in this city, was the
attitude of General Jose Rodriguez as
to the surrender agreement and the
Whereabouts of General Villa. Gen
eral Manuel Banda is attempting by
emissaries to secure the adherence of
Rodriguez to the agreement

River Park at Front
and Locust Streets to
Be Donate Statue Site

The River Park at Front and Locust
streets will be recommended to City
Council Tuesday as the most satisfac-
tory site for the erection of the
Donate statue, "The Dance Of
Eternal Spring"
The city art commission reached
this decision late this afternoon fol-
lowing conference with Giuseppe
Donate, the sculptor, and Warren H.
Manning, the city park expert who
came to this city for the purpose.
The majority of the commission il
is understood had looked rather
favorably upon Front and State
streets as a satisfactory location and
Donate himself favored this because
of the fitting background the State
capitol would present.
Mr. Manning, however, didn't ap-
prove. He has frequently suggested
the possibilities of q broad bridge
across the river at State street
Furthermore he thinks the tall shaft
at Second and State streets should be
removed to the river front at the foot
of State street. The placing of the
fountain at this spot, he figures, will
interfere with the suggested treat
ment of that section of the park.

Not a Youngster Will
Spend Christmas Day
in Harrisburg Hospital

For the first time in several years
the childrens' ward at the Harrisburg
Hospital will not have any patients
this Christmas. This is providing no
accident occurs to any boy or girl, or
sickness overtakes any child between
now and Saturday, necessitating their
going to the hospital.
The last patient In the children's
ward was sent home to-day. She was
Eugenia Wilbert. one-year-old daugh-
ter of Wilson Wilbert of 1119 Chris
tian street, who underwent an opera
ton last week for an abscess.
Absence of little folks, however,
will not mean the elimination of the

burg hospital. This morning large
pine tree from Maine was erected in
the middle corridor. 1t will be elab-
orately decorated.

asked in Spanish.

piled and lapsed into silence which
no question could induce him to

Proclamation of martial law in

dence of growing uneasiness at Athens

The only thing which has occurred
to relieve the situation is the an
nouncement that the Bulgarian officer
in command of the force which clashed
with the Greeks in Epirus has been
punished and that the incident is con-
sidered closed.
Only Minor Action
The mystery of the bombardment
of Varna, which was at first depicted
as a formidable Russian attack on the
chief Bulgarian port, has stirred Lon
don, but according to reports from
both sides 1t was nothing more than a
minor naval action among torpedo
boats in which the shore batteries par
ticipated. However, a large Russian
fleet is said to be in the vicinity of
Varna and the action may be merely
the preliminary to a serious Russian
attack.
