Published Monday, April 29, 1918
CREW'S ILLNESS A PUZZLE.
Hoboken Doctors Say Abruzzi's Men May Have Grippe.
The health authorities of Hoboken made an extensive investigation yesterday of the cause of the mysterious illness of thirty-two members of the crew of the Italian transport D'Abruzzi, lying at the Twelfth Street wharf, Hoboken. Sixteen of the crew are being treated at St. Mary's Hospital, Hoboken, and the Captain of the ship, Gaspari Fileti, is at Bellevue.
Proceeding on the hypothesis that the crew may have been poisoned as the result of some German plot, the health authorities conducted their investigation in that direction, but found no evidence to indicate the presence of a poison plot. The doctors working on the case are inclined to believe that those members of the crew who are in the hospital are suffering from the grippe.
Government officials who are conducting an independent investigation of the case would make public no conclusions yesterday, and indicated that they would not do so until they had had a report on the examination of the blood cultures which were taken yesterday of all the ailing men.

# The New York Times/1925/12/14/Robbers Chloroform 25 in Five Ohio Homes

STEUBENVILLE, Ohio, Dec. 13 (AP).—Sheriff's deputies tonight, after an all-day search, were without clues as to the identity of robbers who yesterday invaded the Village of Bradley, near here, chloroformed twenty-five persons and escaped with money and jewelry valued at $1,300.
The robbers confined their activities to five families. At the home of David Landers five were chloroformed, six in the house of Dewey Lyons, four in the home of Joseph Daranek, three in David Harbison's home and seven in the home of Julius Legross. Officials tonight were continuing their investigation of places where the bandits might have obtained the chloroform.
Entering the homes the robbers put their victims under the influence of the anesthetic and for several hours deliberately and systematically ransacked the five houses. A number of the homes were entered by means of skeleton keys.
Some of the victims recovered consciousness about noon and notified the authorities here, who proceeded to the mining village. A number of those put under the anesthetic were still sleeping when officers arrived.
All the victims had fully recovered today, reports said, and had suffered no ill effects. The robbers in each home opened windows so as to insure recovery from effects of the chloroform.
# The New York Times/1925/12/14/Tax Bill Will Pass with Little Change

TAX BILL WILL PASS WITH LITTLE CHANGE
House Will Begin Today a Discussion of the Provisions in Detail.
AUTO LEVY CUT WILL STAY
American Automobile Association's Plea for Full Repeal is Expected to Be Rejected.
Special to The New York Times.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 13.—With "general oratory" out of the way, the real business of dealing with the new tax reduction bill will begin in the house tomorrow when, under a rule limiting speeches to not more than five minutes, members will discuss the various provisions of the measure.
The bill will be passed by an overwhelming majority and sent to the Senate by the end of the week, this being assured because all except a few Democrat and the insurgents will join the Republicans in supporting it in virtually the same shape. It now assumes, if there are any changes, they will be of comparatively small consequence.
There has been some criticism of the new surtax and estate tax schedules, but no one now believes they will be altered in any particular. The strong opposition to a 20 per cent. surtax when the original "Mellon bill" was presented in 1924 has died out. The House also is convinced that the estate tax schedules must be reduced to a like figure, although it will not sanction any move to repeal the Federal estate taxes, no matter how determined the pressure may be.
Finis Garrett, the Democratic leader, brought up yesterday a point that may cause unexpected debate on one item of the bill, when he declared he could not sanction the granting of life tenure to members of the Board of Tax Appeals. Mr. Garrett's argument that life tenure instead of a specified term would establish a dangerous precedent seemed to impress a considerable number of members of the House.
Amendments will be introduced this week to repeal the remaining 3 per cent. tax on passenger automobiles, but it is declared these will not get far, the manufacturers of cars having told the Ways and Means Committee they would be satisfied if it were agreed to allow the 2 per cent. tax cut to apply to all cars stocked by dealers a the time the reduction became effective.
Complete elimination of all war excise taxes on motor vehicle tires, accessories and parts, instead of the partial relief provided for in the pending revenue bill, is urged by the American Automobile Association. The attitude of the association, representing the interests of 18,000,000 owners of motor vehicles, including trucks and buses, was set forth by Thomas P. Henry, President of the association, in a letter to Chairman Green of the Ways and Means Committee.
Mr. Henry declares there are no Federal taxes that affect a greater number of persons than those on tires, parts, accessories, trucks and passenger automobiles. The first four are eliminated in the bill, while only a 2 per cent. reduction is made in the last. The association, he says, feels that Congress should repeal the entire tax. Stress is laid by Mr. Henry on the growing bus transportation system, and he argues that the passenger auto tax lays a heavy burden on the new system, while taxes on all other methods of transportation have been dropped.
# The New York Times/1925/12/14/Northwestern University Plans to Absorb Armour Institute in its Engineering School

Northwestern University Plans to Absorb Armour Institute in its Engineering School Special to The New York Times.
CHICAGO, Dec. 13.—As the result of negotiations which have been carried on quietly for some time, the Engineering School of Northwestern University is expected to take over the Armour Institute of Technology and thus make Chicago one of the engineering centres of the country.
The negotiations between the two boards of trustees have been held secret, but it is known that the plan contemplates a gradual movement over a five-year period of the physical and educational assets of the Institute into the administrative control of Northwestern. During the interim the Armour name will remain, but at the end of the five years there will be only the one school, with its main buildings on the Evanston campus and its night classes and laboratories on the new McKinlock campus in Chicago.
President Walter Dill Scott of Northwestern admitted that negotiations were under way.
"Everybody on both sides is agreeable," he said. "We are now on a working basis, but everything beyond that is tentative. If the plan is consummated it will be a great forward stop in the development of Chicago and of the university."
Dr. Howard Raymond, President of Armour Institute, admitted that he had heard rumours of the consolidation.
Armour Institute of Technology was founded by Phillip D. Armour, who contributed an endowment of more than $2,650,000. Since his death J. Ogden Armour has contributed several millions more, and has been active as President of the board.
# The New York Times/1925/12/14/Operators and Miners Silent

Operators and Miners Silent.
PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 13 (AP).—John L. Lewis, President of the United Mine Workers, and Major W. W. Inglis, Chairman of the anthracite operators' Negotiating Committee, expressed interest tonight in Governor Pinchot's call for a special session of the Legislature, which, among other things, is to take up the hard coal strike. Both, however, withheld comment on the Governor's action.
Major Inglis said the operators' General Committee had been called to consider the proposed legislation and that the mine owners probably would issue a statement after the meeting.
Mr. Lewis did not indicate whether the miners would have a statement on the subject later. He said there was no change in the strike situation tonight and that he did not expect any in the immediate future.
# The New York Times/1925/12/14/New Orleans Syndicate Buys Huylers, Inc.

New Orleans Syndicate Buys Huylers, Inc.; $7,500,000 Raised to Expand Candy Business
Special to The New York Times.
NEW ORLEANS, La., Dec. 13—Huylers, Inc., candy manufacturers of New York, has been purchased by a Southern syndicate to which $7,500,000 has been subscribed and will be taken over Jan. 2, it was announced tonight.
Heading the syndicate are Rudolf S. Hecht, President of the Hibernis Bank and Trust Company; Fred W. Evans, President and General Manager of D. H. Holmes Company; Irvin Fuerst, former head of the Fuerst & Kraemer of this scity, and now of New York; Percy H. Johnston, President of the Chemical National Bank of New York, and H. B. Baruch of Henry Hents and Co., New York.
The syndicate subscription, it is announced, is sufficient to cover the purchase price and to provide ample capital for expansion, which is planned on a large scale. The program includes the construction of branch factories, of which the first will probably be in New Orleans; the opening of new Huyler retain stores all over the country.
Mr. Hecht, who led the syndicate that reorganized the Southern Cotton Oil Company recently, will be Chairman of the board. Mr. Fuerst will be President in complete charge of operations and management, and Mr. Evans will be one of the Vice Presidents. Associated with the new company as directors will be A. D. Geogahan, President of the Wesson Oil and Snowdrift Company, which succeeds the Southern Cotton Oil Company, and Meler Elsemann, New Orleans realtor, who, with H. Clifford Bangs of Washington, was instrumental in bringing together the principals of the recent negotiations.
Irvin Fuerst, the new head of Huyler, has had long experience in the candy business. The executive offices and main factories of Huylers will remain in New York, where Mr. Fuerst's headquarters will be established.
Huylers was established fifty years ago. It has large factories in New York, Chicago, Boston and other cities, and operated a chain of fifty-five retail stores.
The business was closely owned by the Huyler family, and was incorporated recently. At that time there was talk of a merger with Schrafft's, Inc. The deal, just closed, however, assures its continuation as a separate business with no other affiliations.
Percy H. Johnston, President of the Chemical National Bank, at his home in Montclair last night said that he had agreed some time ago to take a substantial financial interest in the syndicate which had arranged to acquire the Huyler organization, but added that he had no official information as to whether the deal had been closed. Herman B. Baruch could not be reached at his home last night. Frank DeK Huyler, President of the company which bears the family name, said that he had no comment to make a this time. Coulter D. Huyler, Secretary and Treasurer of the company, could not be reached.

# The New York Times/1925/12/14/New York Dog That Keeps Watch on Sea Believed Lone Survivor of a Liquor Ship

New York Dog That Keeps Watch on Sea Believed Lone Survivor of a Liquor Ship
The owner of the brown and white collie that appeared on the Maine Coast near Biddeford last week during a severe storm, and at every opportunity ran to a bluff over the sea as though looking for a ship, was found here yesterday in the person of Harry Fischer of 75 Second Street. Fischer said the dog has been stolen from him in the Catskills last Summer, probably by bootleggers. It was believed from this that the dog might have been the only survivor of a rum ship wrecked in the storm off the Maine Coast.
Fischer manages the Columbia Hotel in South Fallsburg, N. Y., each Summer. He is now employed as a caterer for the Chateau de Luxe at 575 Prospect Avenue, the Bronx. The ownership of the dog was traced to him through the New York license found on the collie's collar.
When Fischer was questioned in the Bronx last night, he expressed delight at the finding of the dog.
"I sure want to get my pet back. Of course I can't go up to get him, but I am going to arrange some way to have him returned," he said.
The collie is about one and one-half years old and named "Dan." Fischer obtained the animal from a farmer near the hotel. He said the collie was friendly with every one and particularly with the children who spent the Summer at the hotel in South Fallsburg.
It was only the day before the dog disappeared, said Fischer, that the license tag which made identification possible was put on the collar. The next day the dog wandered away from the children with whom he was playing and did not return.
Fischer said that rum-runners often passed the hotel on automobile trucks, and he said he immediately concluded that "Dan" had been carried off by one of them.

# The Philosophical Review/Volume 1/Summary: Sorley - Lord Herbert of Cherbury

Professor S., after a discriminative account of the life and personality of Lord Herbert of Cherbury, proceeds to a notice of the works and especially the philosophy of the same. It is on his philosophical works that Lord Herbert's true title to fame rests. He belonged to the speculative and not to the empirical philosophers. His point of view is closely allied to that of Descartes, by whom his work was much appreciated. Such merit as belongs to priority of time must be allowed to Herbert. Herbert did not start, as Descartes did, with the sole ​impregnable certainty of self-consciousness. Rather he stumbled across it by the way, without recognizing its supreme importance. It is not the testimony of consciousness, so much as the witness of common consent, which he makes the criterion of truth. The Cartesian principle may gather within itself and explain the whole scope and development of experience. That of Herbert, on the contrary, is liable to have its contents diminished by every extension of our information. Had he more fully investigated the nature and conditions of what he calls the faculty of natural instinct, he might have reached a profounder doctrine and have, to some extent, anticipated Descartes. But he was carried away by the false idea which vitiated so much of the common-sense philosophy of the next two centuries, that a fact is explained if we only refer it to some supposed mental faculty, and give that faculty a name. Professor S. next shows how the cardinal points of English Deism are to be found in Herbert. Herbert is a precursor, then, of the abstract form of rationalism which was prevalent in the last century. But the method which he and the rationalists used — the method of attaining truth by the attenuation and sifting of common belief — however specious an air it has about it, is not really open to us; it has played out its game. There are no truths which can stand the test of universal consent. The truth is concrete and many-sided, the product of a long and continuous development, to which every race brings something and in which every age has a share. Herbert is the spiritual father of all those who accept things as true by reason of common consent and the belief of people in general.
