NO SIDESHOWS IN 1916

In the presidential election of 1912

Market Square will grow worse in
stead of better. A double track on
the Island will do away with the
necessity of waiting at the siding on
the West Shore. My idea is to have
the cars run straight into Harrisburg,
unload and load passengers and re-
turn to the Island and there meet the
cars they now wait for on the other
side of the river. The trip from and
to the Island can he made in seven
minutes. We tested it out. This
would cause no delay and would
practically give 'cross-river patrons
an eignt-minute schedule instead of
Is minutes as at present. Extra cars
could be run for baseball games and
picnics, waiting on the Island follow
ing the regular cars in and running
only to Second and Walnut streets, re-

Captain Franz Won Papen, the recalled

munity for him. The embassy de-
manded the return of the papers seized
in his Office on the ground that the
Office is a branch of the embassy Sew

was said they were of great impor-
tance, throwing light on various Ger
man activities in this country during
the last twenty months.
Under $4,000 Bail
Although Councillor Polk, of the
State Department, upon receiving the
request of the German embassy, ad-
vised the Department of Justice to
return the papers and to free Won Igel
unless his alleged offense was COM
mitted before he became a member of
the embassy staff, federal agents here
said they had as yet received no such
instructions.
The case seems to hinge upon the
question whether the offense charged
against Won 1gel was committed be-
fore he was employed by the German
embassy. 1t is charged that the We'll
land canal plot was organized in Sep
tcmber, 1914, within two months of
the beginning of the war Records of
the State Department show that it re-
ceived notice of the appointment of
Won Igel as a member of the embassy
staff in September, 1915, one year after
the alleged crime.
Won Igel is at liberty under 10000
bail. A hearing in his case is set for
next Tuesday. Federal prosecutors as
sert that he would be released only
upon instructions from the Attorney
General in Washington.
Counsel has been engaged for the
accused man and a legal battle to OBJ
tain his release is expected.
