MISHAP AT SCRWAB'S PLANT
Burst Water Main Shuts Down Bethle.
hem Works. Busy With Contracts

South Bethlehem, Pa. Feb. s.
Bursting of 36-inch water main yes
terday afternoon caused shutdown of
the entire Bethlehem Steel plant. 1t
is the first time the entire plant has
been crippled, and the great contracts
Mr.. Schwab is filing for war material
for European nations will be held up
until the break is fixed.
What caused the break could not
be learned. Rumors were spread that
the water main had been tampered
with, possibly by some person in sym
pathy with countries other than those
for which the steel company is max
ing war material, but nothing could be
learned on the subject.
Through this broken main flowed the
entire water supply for all the machine
shops, armor plate and projectile plants,
blast and open hearth furnaces, etc.
Fires were Immediately banked to pre-
vent possible explosions.
Possibly / /, 900 men will be idle un.
til the break is mended. Three huge
pumps, each capable of drawing TO-.
100000 gallons from the Lehigh river,
have been used in forcing water each
day into the works, all through the
broken main.

Photoplay To-day

This two-reel VitaLaugh travesty
on one of the consequences of the
present war, are so amusingly shown,
no one could possibly do anything but
laugh when the picture is run at the
Photoplay to-day. There is no such
thing as neutrality between the Schultz
and the Dubois families, neighbors,
after the proclamation of war. The
French in one family and the German
in the other, causes trouble at once,
and former friends become bitter enc
mics. The last straw is added when
the son and daughter of the respective
families fall in love and battle.royal
is the outcome. Finally all the par
ticipants are made to see the absurdity
of it all while the dove of peace once
more fiutters overhead, the war is for
gotten in the coming nuptials of Fritz
and Marie.-Adv.

Been Upset in River

yesterday served as life preserver
for William l.. Kuhn, widely known
Winchester stockman, who was forced
to make desperate battle for his life

Kuhn undertook to ford the river in
a light buggy after being assured by
rivermen that the water was not high.
But when third of the way across
the horse broke loose in deep water and
the buggy was caught in a treacherous
current and dashed down stream.
Although Kuhn was unable to swim,
his cork leg kept him on top of the wa
ter and he foated several hundred yarls

 The girl appeared Friday afternoon as a witness against Mrs. Nellie De- Vorss, charged in Justice Brinker's court with shoplifting. Mrs DeVoross was convicted and fined $50.
 At midnight Thursday, the evening before the trial of Mrs. DeVoross the latter woman appeared at police head quarters in company with a man.

 The man said a girl had robbed him of his watch.
 Mrs. DeVorss told the police she had seen the watch in the possession of Miss McClurg.
 Detective McLennan accompanied the pair to the Oxford hotel to arrest the girl. There was no warrant is- sued.
 "The detective, after the clerk had refused to let him come up to my room, called me from the hotel office on the telephone" Miss McCIurg said to Star reporter. He said he would give me five minutes to dress and go to the station with him.

 This couple got into an auto, the girl says, and kept pace with them all the way to headquarters. There McLennan and other detec- lives bullied her for an hour and a half, Miss McClurg asserts, trying to get from her confession that she had stolen the mans watch.
