Longest. Day Of Year Is
Marred by Heavy Clouds;
Summer Gets Bad Start

Summer was officially ushered in
to-day with most of the palm
beaches and other lighter garments
discarded for clothing affording
more protection. While the weather
appeared to be unusual for the sum-
mer season, ii was not altogether as
cool as it might seem. The fact that
the sun was covered by clouds to-
gether with the fact that a fairly
brisk breeze prevailed, accounts for
the apparent GOODNESS.
The lowest temperature recorded
to-day was 90 degrees. but a lower
temperature than that was recorded
just two years ago on the first day
of summer when the mercury went
one degree lower. The highest tenn
perature of the day was recorded at
o'clock when the thermometer
registered Ga degrees. 1t will like
ly fall somewhat later in the day
with the effect that the mean tenn
perature will be approximately 81 or
So degrees. about three degrees low
er than the average mean, temper
ature in Harrisburg for the past
twenty years.
To-day will be the longest day of
the year. the sun beings in sight for
approximately fifteen hours with
daylight prevailing nearly three
hours longer. The sun rose at 5.34
a. m. and will set at S.26 p. m.

MAY ELIMINATE
STOPS NOW MADE
BY TROLLEY CARS
Drastic Measures Proposed to
Save Coal, Labor and
Time of Workmen

Officials of the Harrisburg Rail-
ways Company and Ross a. Hickok
local fuel administrator. will confer
during the coming week on a plan
to eliminate many of the stops now
made by the ears on the lines both
in the city and rural districts. The
conference will be the result of a
letter sent to Frank b. Musser, pres
ident of the always company, by
William Potter, state fuel adminis-
traitor, notifying him to work out a
fuel conservation program and ar
range an additional "skip-stop" sys-
tenn with the local administration
The letter also makes numerous
other recommendations which must
be carried out. Recently the rail-
ways company inaugurated fuel
saving by eliminating all alley stops,
but the order of the state adminis-
traitor is more drastic and provides
that no more than eight stops be al
lowed to a mile in the business dis
trict, six in the residence districts
and four in the country.

'Baylies, Yankee Ace,
Missing Since June II;
Machine Fell in Flames
BN .4ssociatcd Prcss

Paris, June 21.-First Lieutenant
Frank L. Baylies an American mem
ber of the French flying corps, has
been missing since June II, when his
machine fell in flames six miles
within the German lines. Baylies'
home was in New Bedford, Mass.
Leading American ace in the
French flying corps, Baylies was
downed during an unequal fight with
four German machines. With Ser
geants Dubonnet and Macari of the
Stork escadrille, he had finished sew
eral hours patrolling, and they were
about to return at twilight when they
sighted four single-seater airplanes
which they mistook for British ma
chimes.
But they were German, and they
seized an opportunity to attack
Baylies simultaneously. The enemy
had the advantage of position and
number, but Baylies put up a game
fight. He attempted to take the of
fensive but his machine caught fire
and fell after few moments about
six miles within the German lines.
Sergeant Macari thinks that Lieut.
Baylies may have had a good land
ing If he escaped death in the flames
of the burning machine.

work yesterday and are not work.
ing to-day, in accordance with a
ruling of the Lykens Union of the
United Mine Workers of America.
Yesterday morning they attended
the funeral of Rudolph Hirsh, of
Lykens, and in the afternoon that
of Charles Fenstermacher. This aft
ernoon they are attending the obse-
quies of Thomas Davis.
In explaining why they are not
working and getting out approx
mately 1000 tons of anthracite coal
on these two days in view of the i'm
minent shortage of anthracite, the
miners say that they are forbidden
to work on the days of funerals of
dead fellow workmen under pro-
visions of their local branch. This
ruling, they say, was enacted because
the Susquehanna Coal Company re-
fused to permit it's clerical force to
make certain deductions from their
wages on the day of the funerals, to
he paid to the dependents of the
dead men. So as the only method by
which they can pay tribute to their
fellow workmen. they do not work
on the days of the funerals of any
men, accidentally killed. and attend
the funerals of the victims.
This has been the custom of the
workers. it is said, since the work
mems compensation act became ef-
fective. Previous to that time the
Sustuehanna Coal Company, at the
request of the Miners Union, had
its clerical force deduct twenty per
cent. of the wages of each workman
TO be paid to the dependents of the
dead men. Since the enactment of
the compensation act, which re-
quires the company to compensate
the dependents. the clerical force
does not perform this duty. So the
workmen. to pay tribute to the dead
men, refuse to work. This they have
done ever since the enforcement of
the compensation law.
Queried on the matter this morn
ing. officials of the Susquehanna Coal
Company declared the men only
want to take several days off. The
company takes the stand that if the
miners want to contribute to the
families of the dead men they could
easily have collected any sum they
desired TO give.

By Associated Press

Paris, June 21.-Grave events are
impending on the British front, ac-
cording to military experts, who see
in the intensity of the German can
nonade at various points the pre-
Iiminary steps of a new German
attack.
1t is pointed out that the Fourth
army group, under Crown Prince
Rupprecht of Bavaria, has. had lei
sure for reorganization during the
three weeks since it was engaged in
battle and is now ready for a new
effort along the front.
1t has been established that units
OF Crown Prince Rupprecht's army
were engaged in the abortive attack
on Rheims Tuesday night. This is
considered proof by the L'Homme

Princes army is tired and exhausted.
