bringing the entire land forces of the
nation into one harmonious whole.
The plan apparently contemplates
making it possible for troops of any
one of the three branches named to
be transferred into either of the
other branches; or put in another
way, there will be no distinction be-
tween soldiers or units of the pres
ent three branches. Officers of the
National Guard, for example, might
be transferred out of state organiza-
tions into Regular Army or National
Guard commands. while officers Of
the National Army might be sent to-
state organizations now designated
as National Guard in the service of
the United States" In the same man
ner, 1t is believed, regiments of the
National Guard or the National
Army might be brigaded with regi-
ments of the Regular Army or reg
ular regiments transferred to brig
ades or divisions now entirely made
up of commands from the National
Guard or the National Army.
Up to this time the line of de-
markation between the three
branches of the combatant military
service has been rather rigidly pre-
served in the formation of units as
large as divisions.

German Vandalism
at Chateau-Thierry

London, July 80. - Evidence accu-
mulates that during their brief stay
in the Marne salient the Germans
again indulged in wholesale acts of
vandalism. In a message sent from
French Army Headquarters, the Reu-
ter correspondent gives details of
their conduct while in Chateau
Thierry.
The Germans held the town some
time and apparently thought that
they would remain there indefinitely.
When they found that they would
have to give it up they apparently
determined to take the only venge-
which have been inflicted on the town
are such as could not be the result
of shelling. the correspondent points
out, as those houses which suffered
shrapnel. or bullet.
These houses" he says, were mag
nificently furnished the walls hung
with costly tapestries and admirable
pictures. The furniture is of eXcep-
tional elegance, and impressive mir
rors and charming statuettes were
numerous.
To-day there is nothing that has
not been destroyed. The tapestries
have been hacked to pieces, the pic
lures slit from corner to corner. the
leather and other chair, coverings
have been ripped from their frames
and all the delicate marqueterie and
the erreplaceable examples of crafts
manship of past centuries have been
smashed. The legs have been torn off
the tables and used in further work
of destruction. There is nSt a mir
ror which has not been broken, and
the glass and china flung at them lie
in fragments before them.
The costly carpets have been soil
ed and rent in every possible way
and inkpots flung at the silken pa
pers on the walls. This vengeful fury
has been carried oven to the extent
of smashing nurseries and doll
houses. The fashion in which beds
and rooms have been defiled is diff
ficult of description. 1t would seem
the work of lunatics."

PROBING CAUSE
OF HOSE LOSS
700 Feet of Fire Hose De-
stroyed by Acid, Is Belief
of Investigators

Deputy nre marshals from the State
Department together with borough
authorities to-day were busy inves-
tigating the supposed destruction OF
700 feet of fire hose owned by the
borough which was discovered at the
fire yesterday,
The hose. according to Fire Chief
o. E. B. Malehorn, was burned by
acid and is unable to be used the
chief said that the disabled hose was
discovered when the Hygienic flremen
started to lay streams to the nre'

matter. Firemeu of the various COM
panies were of the opinion that some
members were angered over counciIs
decision In granting the assignment
panies only. The Hygienio Company
was not given new hose from the re,
cent purchase, because. counellmen
say this company is not called on TO
is needed by the other companies.
Immediately after the damaged
hose was discovered, Fire Chief Male
horn ordered the hose laid aside, The
hose was taken fro mthe Hygienic
Company and placed at the Citizen
Hose House pending an investiga
tion which is expected will not be
completed for several days, The town
property committee of council has in
its possession a section of the hose
and will also probe the cause of such
action.
To replace the am<lmt of hose dis
abled will mean the expenditure of
a large amount of money When the
last lot of hose was purchased coun-
ell was compelled to pay sl.le per
foot.
The fire causing the destruction Of
large quantities of hay, straw and

quarries, was discovered about }
o'clock by William Etnoyer, the
stable boss. Etnoyer saw a small
stream of smoke coming from the
roof and ran to turn in an alarm;
gained considerable headway.
Eighteen head of horses were rescued
before the fire reached the stalls.
According to a repert made by
Chief Malehorn this morning the loss
caused by the fire was estimated at

CHANGES FOLLOW
STATION ORDERS
General Superintendent n. w.
Smith Is Arranging For
Consultations in East

AS result of the plans to con-
solidate stations of competing rail-
road lines in the east. important
changes will be announced shortly
by General Superintendent n. w.
Smith of the Eastern Division of the
Pennsylvania railroad. He is now
making a tour of the smaller lines
connecting the main line.
While no announcement has been
made officially. there is a probability
that the Reading and Columbia
branch trains may run out of the
Pennsy station at Lancaster. The
Cornwall offices and the Cornwall
and Lebanon headquarters. now the
Lebanon division, may be operated
in one building. There is also a
probability that trains to and srom
Lebanon will be operated out of Har-
risburg, making Conewago a regular
stop instead of a terminal point.
New Schedule Necessary
On the Schuylkill Valley division a
number of stations have been con-
solidated. The Pennsy has issued a
new schedule covering all changes
The same plan. it is said, will be
carried out on branch lines where
the Reading Company competes be-
tween Harrisburg and Coatesville
In order that the travelling public
may not be inconvenienced it is said
the main line schedule will be Ie-
vised.
The Middle division, however, will
not have many changes according
to reports. This branch has nc
competing lines, most of the smaller
branches operating under the di-
rection of the Pennsy. There is to be
many changes on the Sunbury and
Williamsport divisions.

Hun Admiralty Seeks
to Justify U-Boats

Washington, July 80. - An official
dispatch from Berne, received yester-
day, indicated that the German Ad-
miralty is seeking to reassure the
German people concerning the cam
paisn conducted by German U-boats.
but is having a difficult time explain
ing why submarines have not been
able to halt the movement of Ameri-
can troopships to France
The dispatch stated that the many
illusions made in the German press
to the presence of more tha ma million
American soldiers in France, oombin-
ed with figures showing a diminution
in the tonnage sunk by U-boats in
June has brought German public opin-
ion to the conclusion that the subma-
rine campaign has resulted in failure.

Street Car Conductor
Attacked and Robbed

While going to his home in En-
haut after work last night about l
o'clock, A. F. Fetrow, of Enhaut, was
attacked and robbed by two negroes,
who relieved him of large amount
of money. The robbery took place
at Mohn and Highland streets and
was reported to the Steelton police
department. Details of the robbery
were not on the police records this
morning but it is understood that
after the negroes took the money
they shot at him, one of the bullets
glazing the upper lip. He was taken
to the emergency hospital of the To-
cal steel plant and later to the Har-
risburg Hospital. The amount of
money taken from Mr.. Fetrow was
rot known by police but it is under
stood that the night receipts received
on the car which he was conducting
were taken from him.

Washington, July S0.-A readjust-

yesterday declined to comment on
