Beidleman and Seitz Get in Wrangle
Which Judge McCarrell Cuts Short
The Boys Church Contributions
Discussed

Mrs. Rebecca /. Behney, wife of Dr.
Byron S. Behney, dentist, of sos
North Second street, was in court this
morning seeking to compel her former
husband, DIR. Horace NJ. Cumbler, also a
dentist, of Steelton, to support their
son, Horace NJ. Cumbler, ,Ir., seven
years old.
The amount of DR.. Cumbler s annual
income was the subject of lengthy
argument between counsel, D. S. Seitz,
for Mrs. Behney, and f. f. Beidleman,
for the defendant. Judge. McCarrell
closed the controversy by making an
order directing DR.. Cumber to pay 81
week.
DR.. Cumbler himself said that in
years gone by he has averaged not less
than $500 year, but during the
last twelve months he got only about
$4,000. His expenses, he said, run
close to $1,000 year, and in his list
of expenses he included his insurance
charges and club fees. He is a member
of clubs both in Steelton and in Har-
risburg, and he said that he spends
many of his evenings at one or another
of these clubs.
Beidleman thought the item of
charges covering the lad IS church con-
tributions should not be included in
the mother IS schedule of charges and
besides, he said, many of the other
charges care high. !"
why we are asked to pay $3.50 a
week for that little boy began the
Senator, and the average workingman
pays mot more than $3.50 a week for
board. And think of it, he continued,
"$1 a week for laundry and $3.50 a
month for shoes.'

in an argument on the question of

The siege of rrzemysl, an Austrian
stronghold in the province of GaIicia,
has been under way since the early davs
of the war. 1t has been bitter and
relentless siege, which has never been
relaxed for day since the Russians in
vested the city.
With the fall of Przemysl the only
important fortified town in Galicia
which is still in the hands of the Aus
trians is Cracow in northwestern Ga
licia, close to the German border.
In the early days of the war the Rus.
sian offensive campaign, as outlined of
fcially, contemplated the invasion of
Germany through East st'Prussia on the
north and simultaneously into Silesia
from Galica. The Russians succeeded
IN penetrating Galicia, but the success
of the Austrians in holding Przemysl
and Cracow blocked attempts to invade
Germany across the Silesian border.
The siege of Przemysl has been one
of the most picturesque phases of the
war in the east The Austrian garrison

British Finance Expert Declares
Trade Cain of America

London, Dec. 1.-THE scheme for
modifying American securities was vir-
tually the sole topic Of discussion to-
day IN the American section of the
stock market. The government terms
ARE considered generous there, and tho
plan IS thought 10 be a good ono. es-
pecisliy for holders selling outright.
It is believed that many trust com
panes and insurance houses will seize
the opportunity to sell holdings at the
present high level.
Sir George Paish, one Of the best
known English authorities on financial
affairs, who came TO the United States
last year TO confer with American Off
Gals on mutual financial problems
made the following statement to-day
on the proposal:
"The plan is to enable the British
people to purchase and pay for the
great quantities of American goods
and produce they will need 70 buy in
the next twelve months. Further, il
Is for the purpose OF providing the
allies Of Great Britain with the sums
they need to pay for goods purchased
in the United States.
an the last year goods bought from
America have been paid for largely in
gold, and still more largely in securi-
ties. The amount Of gold in the United
States is now so colossal that the inn
portion of additional amounts may lead
to wild speculation, and il is undesira-
BILE, in every ones interest, that a still
greater amount OF gold should accumu-
late in the United States, and desirable
that payment should be made for the
