In a letter TO Colonel Joseph B.
Hutchison. received to-day, from
George w. Horder. chief of police of
Williamsport. the Harrisburg police de-
partment is highly complimented for
its good work in capturing Paul
Van Horn, wanted in that city for
murder.
Van Horn was arrested at the Har-
risburg Post Office yesterday.
In his letter Chief of Police Horder
refers to the excellent reputation of
the Harrisburg police department and
says: In the arrest of Van Horn YOU
have performed a valuable duty for
the city of Williamsport and Lycom-
ing county"
Before his departure for Williams
port G.. w. Tepler. county detective,
had Van Horn make a statement,
which was sworn To.
In this statement Van Horn tells how
he planned the robbery and regarding
the death of Mrs. Mary Jane Fulmer.
He emphasizes the fact that he did not
intend to commit a murder.
Van Horn says he and his mother
in-law quarreled last Tuesday and on
Wednesday. the following day, he had
a fight with his father-in-law. Van
Horn says his wife. Anna Stroup, had
nothing to do with the robbery: that
he wanted money. and when he went
to the Fulmer home to telephone to a
relative for cash the temptation to
rob came to him.
The statement was made in the pres
ence of Colonel Joseph Il. Hutchison,
James Walters. county detective, Jo-
seph Ibach and the Lycoming county
detective.
A crowd of 5000 people awaited
Van Horns arrival at Williamsport
station, but the train was stopped at
a street crossing near the Jail.

'HARDSCRABBLE' IS
AGAIN Up To SE|TZ
Council Refers Problem to Solicitor
For Action; No Changes
This Year

City Council this afternoon decided
to refer the "Hardscrabble" problem
to City Solicitor ID. S. SeitZ again with
instructions to take such steps as he
may deem proper to adjust the prop
erty values equally. and failing in this
to ask for the appointment of view
ers to fix the figures incident to con-
demnation of the dwellings on the
west side of Front street between Herr
and Calder. Under no circumstances
will il be possible to condemn the prop
perties before April l of this year, and
the concensus of opinion among the
commissioners appeared to be that IT
will be another year before the city
will be able TO actually take over the
properties. This means that Hard
scrabble residents may rest undis-
turbed, unless suitable adjustments can
be reached, until next year.

Dauphin county's plan of depositing

earning interest on daily balances of
county funds.
Since County Treasurer 4. II. Bailey
assumed office. Dauphin county has
sWilled its revenues considerably by
its daily bank deposit earnings In
other counties the system is follow ed,
but there is no law making it COM
pulsory and it is this phase that the
legislative committee considered to-
day. The question too, of whether the
commissioners. the courts or the
treasurer should approve of the bank
and the security caused much discus
sion. The program of legislation will
not be completed until nearly evening
ii was explained by the committee as
there are a whole lot of minor tangles
in county laws generally that the COM
mittee hopes to iron out.
