men, 1t is not known how much was
secured.
The train from Wagner which ar
rived here at 4 o'clock this morning,
was guarded by q force Of twenty
five men under the leadership of
Sheriff Brown The same posse guard
ed the west bound train leaving here
a few hours later, and were rein
forced by twenty-five others at Ken
Meta as the railroad people are ex-
pecting a hOld-up at Illinois Station.
The Cook gang is supposed to be IN

ut the water tank there when the
east bound train came through. Con-
uuctor COnklln was on the lookout for
a hold-up at Braggs and later at Hi
nols. but he came through all right.
He reports the whole country up

WASHINGTON, Oct. 26--The officials
OF the war department. are BY no
means Of the opinion that the in
terror department has made out a
proper case for the employment Of
troops as a posse commitatus in the
Indian territory Agent Wisdom's
dispatch on which the appliea lion for
troops is based. states in one place
that they wanted to run down
band of robbers and in another that
the treaties require the Indians to
be protected. There is an question
with the war department officials
that the employment of troops under
the first point would be clearly Illegal
and as to the second there is no evil
dence that the Indians themselves
have suffered or have appealed for
protection. Nevertheless, to set at
rest all doubts in the matter, Acting
Secretary Doe has referred the apPli-
cation for troops to the attorney gen.

of their employment IN this case

NEW DIPHTHERIA CURE.
Ehs New Treatments as PractIcsd In
France n Wonderful Success.

The New Treatments as PractIced In
France n Wonderful Success.
WASHINGTON, Oct 26. - The new
treatment by innocu1ation of diph-
iberia and Group. as practiced in
France, is the subject of a special re-
port to the state department BY
United States Consul C. w. Chancellor
at Havre- He says that by this
method of treatment only one out Of
four diphtheretic patients succumbs.
whereas the figure IS double for other
methods of treatment heretofore ap-
piled. Consequently the consul, who
is a Baltimore physician of repute,
says that it would seem very desir-
able that the anti-diphtheretic serum
should be introduced and come into
general use at the earliest period
practicable in America, where many
thousand children and numerous
physicians, students and nurses die
from diphtheria and Group.
The consul gives in detail a history
OF the development of the treatment
by DR.. Pasteur and his assistant, DR..
Roux. who have been experimenting
with it for five years, keeping it
secret until they had satisfied them
selves OF It's efficiency and had sub
Jected the animal (the horse) best
adapted to transferring diphtheretic
poison into an anti tOxine. A trial Of
the new treatment at one Of the
largest hospitals Of Paris resulted in
reducing the death rate from dip
iberia from 5l.7O per cent to 2433 per
cent. In addition. it IS stated that
children vaccinated with the serum
were protected from the disease even
while living in close contact with
diphtheretic patients
As the Pasteur institute can not
meet the great demand for the serum,
movements are foot n a nj
localities to establish auxiliary sta
tions- In slight cases one injection
of The serum is sufficient. while the
ordinary case yields to two.
