EMPEROR FRANCIS JOSEF DIED

IL all history there has been an ac

ruled ninety-nine years, and there is
the more credible instance of Ram
eses ii, Seostris of the Greeks, whose
reign is reputed to have covered six
tv-seven years. But in recorded his
tory there certainly has been no
reign of eual duration to that of
Francis Joseph. Louis XIV of
France was nominally king for sew
enty-two years. He actually occu-
pied the throne for little more than
half century. A closer rival, and
the only one of modern times, was
Queen Victoria, who reigned for six
ty-four years
The aged monarch, although he
had suffered serious threads upon
his health for many years past, was
strong enough to keep a firm grip

There were repeated reports Of a Sc
rious illness from a brnchial affec-
tion, and frequently rumors of his
death, which were proven unfound-

reports asserted that his mind had
become affected through worry over
the great war, but the truth of these
rumors was not admitted

COAL INDUSTRY
HASBIG REVIVAL
Chief Roderick Makes Some
Interesting Statements Re-
garding the Trade

Pennsylyania's total production of
coal in 1915 is given as 246.797.774
net tons by James +. Roderick, State
chief of mines. in his summary of the
coal industry issued to-day. The
anthracite production was less. but
the bituminous and coke productions
were greater than in the year before
The official figures show the fol-
Anthracite, 1915. S9,37I7O6; 1914.

164.124.
In his summary Chief Roderick
The year opened with most un-
favorable conditions, but towards the
middle of the summer the bituminous
trade began to feel the effect of the
foreign orders for war munitions thar

plants in the eastern part of the
country. Any concern that was able

tion and work was pushed with fever
ish activity. The demand for btu
minuous coal to supply the needs of
the plants engaged in this newly de-
Neloped trade became so urgent that
part of the output was diverted from
its usual channels. so urgent that
part of the output was diverted from
its usual channels, and as a result,
the anthracite trade was benefited by
the demand that arose for the smaller
sizes of coal. AS the year progressed,
the industry became still more active
and the year terminated with both
regions producing very heavily and
with prices at abnormal figures.

general funds of the eity,or- to assess
them against abutting property. on
the principle of special assessments
for special benefits, many street and
other improvements should be assess
ed against property not contiguous.
For The Property Owners
obviously" continued Mr.. Lath-
rop, these residents desire material
benefit to their properties, yet, under
the law, they will bear none of the ex-
pense. The abutting property owners
will bear all or most of the cost, Should
not these residents pay special
assessment for this special benefit ?"
Director Lathrop touched interest
ingly on the wide street question.
The city" said he, lis a transporta-
tion device and the priciples of trans
portation should govern the layout.
IT is a popular fallacy that all streets
should be wide. We might as we'll say
that all shoes should be large. The
shoe should fit the foot, the streets
should fit the use. In the quiet resi-
dental districts the street should be
narrow, but the houses should be set
far back thus giving light and air
and lawns for the children. At the
same time this would involve less ex-
penditure for construction and main
tenance of pavements
"AuC anu SlEetIS
But" added Mr.. Lathrop impress
siNely. "arterial highways should be
capacious. removing all obstacles in
order to permit the flow of traffic
economically"
The street problem, together with
the general transportation problem is
the biggest issue before the American
people continued the speaker i'm
pressively. Properly handled it is
the proper sort of preparedness for
peace or war. In case of war eighty
per cent of our activities would be
industry, commerce and transporta-
ton. And our transportation problem
is to-day problem of terminals
Obviously congestion and delay are
caused not by lack of equipment but
by failure to move the equipment. This
delay is caused by congested ter
minals.
MarysvilIe and EnoIa
There must be a separation of
through traffic from local traffic.
Wherever it is possible, through traffic
must be carried around our cities.
This principle is recognized by classi-
fication yards at Enola and Marys-
vile and by the New York Central
Railroad near Syracuse. The Penn
sylvania applies this principle to
through traffic between Washington
transportation applied within and
without the city is the biggest prob
lem of city planning.
Mr.. Lathrop, in conclusion boosted
the city's general improvement pro
gram including the scheme for the
construction of a subway at State
street. its parks and playground work.
I'VE recognize them all as social, IN
dustrial and cultural necessities, -
said he.

While Mr.. Lathrop handed Harris

further steps which must he taken in
order to attain the ideal city beauti-
full" Here's his tribute:
Harrisburg had enough imagi-
nation and courage to start in n

although in 1913, according to
the United States census. the
average governmental cost for all
cities above 10000 population
per capita was s32.59. Harrisburg
only expended S19.1S or about
sixty per cent. of the average; vet
Harrisburg has much to show for
its expenditures-first instarting
the big fundamental works of
sanitation; second, in the cultural
or decorative side of life.
Some Problems
That there is much to be done,
however. to make possible the solu-
ton of some of the grave traffic and
terminal problems was emphasized by
Mr.. Lathrop.
Il shall pay Harrisburg the compli-
ment of speaking not in a narrow
local sense of city improvements -
said Mr.. Lathrop, for that would be
carrying Goals TO New Castle.
Il shall regard this city" added the
speaker significantly, "as not only the
eXemplar, but also the technical
schoolmaster of city planning pro-
cedure. This is the seat of govern
ment and government must take ac-
count of city planning.
After having made an intensive
study of more than 10 cities l
see two insistent needs in the State
of Pennsylvania:
First. a program of change in the
laws and the method of local applica-
tion.
Traffic Needs
Second, basic study OF our cities
as vast transportation devices.
In common with other American
cities we need, excess condemnation,
area assessments for street and other
improvements, and declaration of
proper plans for the widening of
arterial highways which are now too
narrow
Mr.. Lathrop discussed at length the
move that has been in these direc-
tions in other States and In foreign
