OF q Grippe nIicrebe.

NEW YORK, April 1.-The startling story
from Chicago to the effect that DR.. Will
lam Gentry, of that city, has discovered
the microbe of la grippe, has caused SEN
sation among the physicians of this city
and excited critical comments not at all
favorable to the medical reputation of the
alleged discoverer.
Several prominent doctors and expert
pathologists, who were interviewed to-day
in regard to the importance of DR.. Gentry g
discovery, were unanimous in declaring
that it was altogether improbable and
utterly without any scientific value. Most
of the medical fraternity here look upon
the story as huge joke and decline to
discuss il seriously.

Women Voters.

Topeka, Kas., April 1.-Reports from
many parts OF the State show a falling of
in the registration of woman voters. In
this city, however, the registration is un-
usually large. Over rs per cent of the o.
900 voters are women. The increase is
due to the colored women, who were
hauled to the registration office in droves
Yesterday. At Atchison but 224 women
registered, and it is believed that not over
100 will vote.

Recalled by Italy.

WASHINGTON, April 1.-The Baron Fava
has presented to the state department has
recall by the Italian government and his
demanded his passports. The department
is greatly surprised, because the investi-
cation into the New Orleans matter is not
completed. The reason for the recall is !:
'The King of Italy is displeased with the
progress Of adjustment between the two
countries in regard to the New Orleans
massacre" This action can be constru-
ed in no other way than an act of open
hostility on the part of the Italian gov
ernment to the United States, with
which it has heretofore been on friendly
terms.
