notwithstanding the fact that there
is not one among them who has not
played the game with McGraw, who
has not in former years been proud
to call himself his friend and his
Lieutenant; and there are few among
them who have not profted in one
way or another by their association
with him. The king is dead, long
live the king" is an idiOm they eX-
emplify and enact with cruel and
ruthless realism.
Watson now has the call from
them. The new leadership is Wat
son and Cornwell, with Senator Chill
ton holding a few shares of stock,
and holding them only SO long as he
plays up square with the plans and
Vaccinations Of Watson and Corn
well. According to the talk Of the
politicians here, Chiffon has been
placed on a sort Of probation by his
erstwhile colleague.
McGraws overthrow was no sur
prise to Washington. 1t was dis
cussed as likely to happen before it
did happen, and a week before his
fatal day it was discussed as most
probable in these dispatches 1t had
been kept very quiet up until then.
In fact, the prellminaries were
handled with the utmost secrecy. and
seldom has a political change sue
ceeded in being kept away from the
knowledge of the public as this was.
The report here is that 1t was as
much OF surprise and shock to Nc
Graw as 1t was to the little band of
party leaders who are still loyal to
him in these times which are
troublous to him in many ways. II
that be true, how great must have
been their Disappointment when the
scepter of leadership was wrested
from him In secret session by secret
ballot In which were numbered

him in the crisis Of his direst need.
1t was a kiss on the cheek and knife
in the back, to state 1t metaphoriacal-
ly, according to the accounts brought
back to Washington by men who at
tended the Parkersburg meeting.
Charles C. Lewis's election as
chairman of the state committee, Is
regarded here as much of bid for
corporation support Of Cornwell as
Watson's election to the national
committee. 1t is also looked on as
an effort to put the Cornwell cam
paign on a high plane of pre-eminent
responsibility by going outside the
ranks of the professional and ex-
perienced politicians and campaign
managers, and putting a man up as
tho nominal campaign manager who
is none of these things. Mr.. Lewis
is regarded as a representative OF
big business and a highly respectable
citizen, but is not counted in 1t at any

Considerable progress is now be-

Operators Tell Commission
Anthracite Will Go Higher

Wilkes Barre, Pa, Sept. 3O.-Charles
F. Huber, vice-president and general
manager or the Lehigh and Wilkes
Barre Coal Company, was the only one
OF the big anthracite operators to be
called before the commission named
by Governor Brumbaugh to inquire
into the increased cost of coal.
Mr.. Huber denied there was a COM
bination of anthracite interests that
liked the prices of coal. He said he
was in absolute control of the prices
fixed by his company and denied that
he was controlled by any operators
selling agencies or other interests.
Several of the Independent operators
called before the commission said the
reason for the increased cost in Phila
delphia is that most of the coal is
shipped to a definite consignee and a.
particular grade of coal is invariably
demanded. 1t was also said by these
smaller operators that New York is
the general dumping ground for the
anthracite fields, and that any sort and
grade of coal can be disposed of there
The compensation law by forcing
the purchase of safety devices has
increased the cost of production 8
cents per ton, according to the on
orators. The eight-hour work, 1t is
alleged. has brought about an addi
tional increase amounting to As cents
per ton. These increases in produc-
ton cost left no other alternative than
to increase the cost to the Consumer.

Urges Planting of Flowers
on All Vacant City Ground

The planting of flowers and shrub
berry on all the vacant ground in the
city is urged by Backenstoss Bros,
local real estate brokers, who offer
free several plots of ground under
their supervision for such purposes.
Said a member of the firm to-day:
1.-The Real Estate Brokers of Har-
risburg have under their supervision
a vast amount of vacant ground on
which the weeds are allowed to grow
to AZ great height. This is not only
unsightly and a detriment to the COM
munity, but it is unhealthful and has
caused our health authorities great
annoyance in the past. Why not
beautify these spots by granting per-
mission to the Civic Club or kindred
societies, to grow flowers thereon
For instance lay the ground out in
beds and allow the school children a
certain number of feet on which to
grow their favorite flower. 1t might
be we'll to offer prizes for the pret-
tiest beds. We are of the opinion that
such an arrangement would make
Harrisburg a veritable garden spot
This firm is ready at any time to grant
such permission on several large tracts
of land in the city now under their
control"
