CROWDS ENJOY
MAJESTIC SHOW
Program Is One of the Best
of the Season; Minstrel
Show Makes Big Hit

Overlooking crowds enjoyed the
afternoon and evening performances
at the Majestic Theater yesterday.
The program was one of the best that
the management has presented in
Harrisburg this season.
Two of the acts were of the small
time variety but the last three. espe-
cially Walters and Walters in their
ventriloquist stunt. were better than
the average. Some of the jokes were
old, but as a whole they passed mus
ter. although some could be elimi-
mated.
Jack and Jessie Gibson in their BIZ
cycle act performed creditably and
Jack Gibson amused the audience to
a great extent by his clever manipu-
lation of a high one-wheel cycle.
Morlin, the piano accordionist, was
entertaining, but failed to put the
spirit into his playing and detracted
much from the result by his continu-
Gus dancing.
The Tale of a Coat" the third act
on the program. was by far the fun
niest. The audience was in laughter
from start to finish and the PERFORM
ers were generously applauded.
Walters and Walters gave the ciev-
crest exhibition of ventriloqusn. wit
messed in Harrisburg in a long time.
The audience was greatly deceived by
their art, and the singing of several
fine selections by. the dummies"
proved highly amusing
Add Hoyts Minstrels brought back
fond memories of the olden days when
minstrel shows were prominent. The
singing and tambourine playing in tho
act were excellent.

RAILROADS ASK
HIGHER RATES
Back New Demand With
Stronger Arguments; Seek
Cooperation of All Roads

New York, Oct. 12.-Coincident
with the announcement yesterday
that passenger trainmen on eastern
railroads would shortly present de-
mands for increased wages, execu-
tives of eastern trunk lines arranged
to meet In New York to-day and dis

erhoods for more pay will be a fac
tor in the roads petition, 1t was said
Hope For General Plea
The eastern railroads hope, it is
said, that the western and southern
roads will also renew pleas for high
er rates. Ordinarily, applications for
rate increases are presented separate
ly by the three districts, but in the
last case, all roads joined in the petit
ton for an increase of 10 per cent.
III freight rates. The Interstate Com
merce Commission in its finding last
June, refused the increase asked for
but granted increases OF approx
mately five per cent. of the gross
revenue of the carriers.
Have Stronger Case
The commission pointed out at the
time that if the railroads felt they
could present stronger case the
petition for higher rates might be
renewed. Since last June, the income
of southern and western roads has
not fallen to the extent that the net
earnings of the eastern roads are said
to have dropped. When reports arc
