BETHLEHEM FILLING
ORDER FOR 5000
FRENCH GUNS

BETHLEHEM, Pa, Jan. II.
= A large order recently re-
ceived by the Bethlehem Steel
Company, about which little or
nothing was made public at the
time, is for 5000 field cannon for
France, of All, 5.71, 81 and 6.3
calibers. The craftsmen have
just about finished their work
and the forgers have begun
making the gun tubes. Guns of
these calibers range in length
from twelve to eighteen feet and
their diameters are just a bit
different from anything made
for any other nation, so that the
ammunition will not be inter
changeable or so that if captur-
ed they cannot be turned on the
French troops.
For a large proportion of the
order the Bethlehem Company
will also make the mounts and
carriages complete. The price
ranges from $4,000 upward.
While the borings of these guns
can now be made in several
hours as against weeks hereto
fore, before rapid steel-drilling
was discovered, the order is so
large that it will keep the for
eign ordnance department of
the Bethlehem plant, with
its other orders, busy at least
two years.

PRIEST ENTERS
RANKS AGAINST
BILLY SUNDAY

New York, Jan. ia lively
fight against Billy Sundays
evangelistic campaign in New
York was presaged today by the
Rev. Joseph H. Mcmahon, pastor
of Our Lady of Lourdes Roman
Catholic church, one of the most
influential in the city. In mes
sage to his flock and to church
people generally, Father McMa-
hon bitterly attacked the base
ball evangelist's methods.
"There is strong evidence" "
declared Father Mcmahon, "that
Sunday deliberately makes him
self an instrument of capitalists
to making working people con-
tent and submissive under injus-
tice".
Father Mcmahon charged that
Sundays converts to Christian
ity are not real ones. Investiga-
ton, he said, proved that in
Philadelphia 1900 of the alleged
converts had given wrong names
and addresses. Sunday had a
gift of mob hypnotism," he
said, which enabled him to pur-
sue successfully his trade.

GOV, GIVES new LIFE LEASE
To BOY SLYERS
BORGIO May Not Be Elechocuted
If Bill Against Chair Is Passed.

HARRISBURG, Jan. II. =
Henry Ward Mottorn, seventeen
years old, and Ernest Haines,
eighteen, Jefferson county boy
murderers, will not be electro
cuted at Rockview Penitentiary
next Monday. What is more,
leaders in the Statewide move
ment to have their sentences
commuted to life imprisonment
believe that, despite the three
reflections of their appeals by
the Board of Pardons, they will
not be executed at all, but that
their lives will be spared.
The boys we're to have been
placed in the death chair on
Monday for the murder of
Haines' father. Six days ago
the Board of Pardons finally re-
fused to interfere.
Governor Brumbaugh today
granted them a respite until
March 5. On next Monday, the
day they were to have died,
there will be introduced into the
Legislature bill proposing that
the death chair be abolished al

Should the bill be passed it
will undoubtedly be recognized
by the Board of Pardons as an
of the opposition of
the entire State, not only to the
execution of future murderers,
but as we'll as to murderers
now under sentence, and the
Board of Pardons, it is believed,
will commute the sentences of
these two youths of Jefferson
County's desolate hills.
Mottern and Haines were to
have been removed from the
county prison at Brookville to
the death house at RockvieW to-
morrow, but the Governor fail
ed to act today.
The Governors reason. for
granting the respite was the ap-
peal for the two boys to the Su-
preme Court, where argument
as to Haines, who insists he is
innocent of his fathers murder,
will be heard on February II.
Mottorn's case will be heard as
soon as alienists can examine
him and make a report.
