went to Ypres, which is still daily sub
jected to intermittent shelling. 1t is
certain if the Germans had known of
his presence they would have given
more than a salute of II guns to
which the Secretary of War is en-
titled.
The field marshal picked his way
through the former streets, among the
wreckage, saw a 17-inch shell hole in
the plaza, the remains of the Cloth
Hall and other sights, an impressive
example of the destructive power of
modern she'll fire.
Unusual as 1t was in Ypres not a
single shell fell while Kitchener was
there.

tic action of trench warfare developed
on the only part of the line that had
seen any action this week. At Pilken,
north of Ypres, the Germans COM
manded two small hills which gave
them a furnishing advantage over the
British trenches on their front. The
British determined to try to rectify
their line and after the usual artillery
preparation they charged and by a free
use of bombs, took $50 yards of Ger
man trenches, 80 prisoners and two
machine guns.

Fred Wigfield, burgess OF Steelton,
to-day announced himself candidate
for the Republican nomination for JUS
tice of the peace. Mr.. Wigfield is an
employe of the Pennsylvania Steel
Company, a resident of the borough
for sixteen years and lifelong, ardent
Republican.
In announcing his candidacy Bur-
CESS Wigtield said I'm Difference to
the expressed wishes of my many
friends, l have consented to become O
candidate for justice of the peace. In
coming before the voters of Steelton
| am willing to stand upon my record
as their chief burgess during a period
of two years. In conducting my cam
p&ign shall use the same methods
which characterized my fight for bur-
gess-a clean-cut, direct, personal ap-
peal to the voters. If l am nomi-
mated and elected L shall conduct the
ONCE in fair, unbiased, impartial
ana DuSineSsllke manner.
Won Hot Fight
Wigfeld was elected burgess in No.
Vember. 1913, with an overwhelming
majority over three opposing candi-
dates in one of the hottest fights here
IN years. During his two years as bur-
CESS he has paid strict attention to his
dutles and has instituted number of
reforms of benefit to the taxpayers.
His record as man is interesting.
Born in England A years ago, he
was orphaned when only years old.
AT 10 he was forced to leave school to
work in shop. He came to America
at Il and obtained work in the coal
mines in Clearfield county. The hours
o. labor here were long and his days
OF rest few. During his few hours of
leisure from the RruelIine foil in tho
mines young Wigfield took a course
in correspondence school to improve
his meager education. In 1899 he
came to Steelton as a salesman for the
Steelton Store Company. Later he en-
tered the employ of the PENNSYLVANIA
steel Company where he rose to his
present position as settlement clerk.

BIG. STEEL MERGER
REPORT IS DENIED
Jones & LaughIin Not Considering
Move; Penna. Cambria
Combine a Fact
Special to The Telegraph

Pittsburgh, July 27.-Commenting
on the report that his S30.000.000 cor
poration. the biggest of the independ-
merger, to be second in size only to the
United States Steel Corporation. B. F.
! Jones, Jr., president of the Jones &;
Laughlfn Steel Company, pointed to-
, day to the fact that the ground the
company purchased at Aliquippa, Pa,
for expansion is only % per cent oc-
cupied and that millions of dollars
worth of improvements are in con-
temptation.
For the company, which is the prop
erty absolutely of the members of the
family. is debt free and whose stock Is
never on the market, the merger re-
port was emphatically denied. The
Jones & Laughlin Company is in ex-
cellent shape financially.
II =. Earring, secretary OF the CRU
cible Steel Company, said the merger
was news to him.
Two of the companies mentioned,
the Pennsylvania and Cambria Steel
Companies, already one in control,
were reported two months ago in a
story sent out from Pittsburgh to be
ready to become one in fact by merg-
ing into a S50,000.000 Independent
steel corporation to be headed by w.
Fl. Donner, of Philadelphia, at present
president of the Cambria company and
member of the board of directors of
the Pennsylvania company. Mr.. Dom
per denied the merger then, but steel
men here have since learned that plans
for the merger are going ahead.
Youngstown, Ohio, July 26.-Presi-
dent James A. Campbell, of the
Youngstown Sheet and Tube Company,
says his company has never been ap-
preached with a proposal to enter the
rumored new steel combine. Mr..
Campbell is also a director of the
Lackawanna Steel Company and says
he would know If that company was
considering such a merger. He had
heard nothing of the proposed COM
blnation from any source, he says.
Republic Iron and Steel Company off,
cials also say they know nothing of it,
Philadelphia, Pa, July 27. - At the
offices of the Bethlehem Steel Cor
poration the story that Charles NJ.
Schwab was to become the head of the
merger was denied. An officer of the
Republic Iron and Steel Company said
that there was not a thing in the story
so far as his company was concerned.
President e. c. FELTON, of the Penn
sylvania Steel Company said: so far
as ] know there is nothing in it"
Steel men and Wall Street refused
to give credence to the report. 1t was
admitted that several of the companies
mentioned. particularly the Cambria
and the Pennsylvania. are likely to
merge at some time, and it was fur
ther believed that Charles NJ. Schwab
is anxious to enlarge the capacity OF
the Bethlehem company by adding
others, but a great merger such as the
one mentioned, it was believed, is al
most out of the question.

TROOPERS AT CRETNA
SOAKED In STORM
rContinued From First Page. ]

Continued From First Page.J
than two hours the rain fell in tor
rents
The big cavalry camp is pitched on
ground with a. sharp slope with the
Pennsylvania regiment about the low
est point. When 1t became apparent
that the rain was going TO be heavy
one, scores of the men turned out and
deepened the bitches about their tents
to carry off the water. but even with
this precaution many were water
soaked and uncomfortable before the
deluge stopped.
The troops pulled out of camp early
to-day for a continuation of their in
struction in close order drill by troops,
which continued for upwards of an
hour. The second morning period was
taken up with instruction in advance
and rear guard duty, kind of work
of great interest to the men, because
1t savors more of war conditions.
All eager attention now is centered,
however, on the big maneuver of the
week, to occupy all of Thursday and
Friday. The entire body or troops will
leave camp Thursday morning and
spend the day in heavy marching
order in battle with an imaginary
enemy. They will bivouac under shell
ter or pup" tents Thursday night and
Friday the force will be divided into a
"red" and a blue force which will
work out under the eyes of the army
officers, the largest ana most intricate
cavalry problem presented in tho
United States since the Civil War and
the largest ever attempted by militia.
This large statement is supported by
the statements of the army officers,
the explanation being that no body of
United States cavalry of similar size
has been assembled since the war and
nothing comparing thu present force
has ever been assembled by the Ma
tional Guard.
The rifle competitions on the State
range, to select the teams to repre-
sent the cavalry branch of the service
in the annual State matches next
month, will be concluded to-day.
1t is believed the championship will
lie between the Second City Troop,
Philadelphia. and the Governor s
Troop, of Harrisburg.
