Chief Oonlin succumbs.

NEW YORK, April 2S.-The Her
aid this morning says: When Chief
OF Police Conlin sailed for Europe
last Saturday he was very i'll. His
most intimate friends did not know
how i'll he was and how necessary
was the vacation the board of po-
lice commissioners granted him.
Since his departure it is stated he
will never be able to resume the
sceptor of authority again, but by
the time Of the expiration of his
leave Of absence his application for
retirement will be presented.
Chief Of Police Conlin has been
under strain since he took the
police government into his hands
in April OF last year, such as has
been borne by no man in similar
position. He found the force de-
moralized. His hands, he found,
were tied, inasmuch as he was on
ly acting chief. Chief Conlin con
Quoted his office without ad-
verse criticism until December,
when he was made full chief of po-
lice. The strain under which he
was working, however, had had its
effect and two weeks ago Chief
Conlin visited one OF the most cell
ebrated alienists OF this city and
was examined as to his mental
condition.
The physician at once declared
that the chief was on the brink Of
an attack of nervous prostrstion
and he advised an immediate
Withdrawal from his official posi-
tion and an ocean voyage. Chief
Conlin's application for twenty
days vacation and thirty days leave
OF absence was the result.

The New York Volunteers.

NEW YORK, April 2S.-The first
big rally of the "Volunteers" in
New York filled Carnegie hall last
night. The strength OF Darlington
Booths new organization showed
on the stage with its rising tiers Of
benches occupied by more than 200
OF New York's citizens, soldiers and
a band. When Commander and
Mrs. Booth appeared on the plat
form, the audience arose and gave
a hearty greeting, which was only
hushed when it became eviuent
that Ballington Booth desired to
speak. His first words wore:
81 am very pleased once again, af-
ter all that Mrs. Booth and l have
been called to pass through, to find
myself at last here, face to face with
my fellow countrymen." This led
to more applause and cheers.
Mrs. Booth spoke of the suffer-
ing they had endured. OF
the difficulties for the future she
expressed no fear. She recalled the
navigator who when asked if he
knew the rocks, replied, "No, but
/ know the course"
ave know the course" said she,
"for we know God is guiding US.

K RAYS Kill Diptheria Germs.

CHICAGO, April 2S.-An Y ray
will kill the bacteria OF diptheria.
The electrical department of the
University Of Missouri, at Column
bia, announces that after extensive
experiments diptheria germs had
been killed by the Roentgen light.
To Prof. II. Preston Pratt and
Hugo Wightman, of Chicago, the
first to give to the scientific world
the positive assertion that the
disease germs in the human body
could be killed by the use Of the
Y rays, this confirmation Of their
own pioneer work was extremely
gratifying. To the doctors and
scientists who criticised the pos
siblity of the Chicago discovery be-
ing true the confirmatory report
from the University Of Missouri
will come as a surprize. Prof.
Roentgen himself when told by
cable Of the Chicago experiment
and the result replied, he expected
the experimental result as they
did. The Y rays, he said, were a
germicide.
The following gives. the details Of
the university's work:
The Roentgen ray will kill dip
liberia by killing the bacilli which
causes that disease. This is the
discovery the electrical depart
ment Of the University Of Missouri
announces today. Experiments
have been carried on for some time
in the university electrical labora.
tory to test the effect OF the famous
ray on the diptheria bacilli. The
germs were prepared by Prof.
Hickman Of the meteorological de-
partment and subjected to the in.
fiuence of the rays for two hours.
The experiments demonstrated
that the germs were killed, the
miscroposic examination showing
that diptherla bacilli had almost
entirely disappeared. The arrang-
ing OF the testing apparatus is diff
ferent from the ordinary method.
Further experiments will be made
at once. II they continue success

MONTGOMERY, Ala, April 2S.-
The state convention Of the popu-

here today. The two parties will
fuse on the local tickets, but when
it comes to the selecting of the ua-

fight will undoubtedly develop.
The Mckinley men and the anti's

some parts OF the state, and when
the convention gets under way
there will surely be conflict.

Rubio, Pinar del Rio, is dated
April II and is addressed to T.
Estrada Palma. The writer says:
"With US everything goes on very
well and there is no trouble of our
ability to triumph, if by no other
means, by eXhausting Spain.
"However, as an early termina-
ton of the war is what must be
sought for and as 1 read in the
papers that it is discussed whether
the United States should inter-

the United States, using their

to Cuba without provoking any
complication with Spain, for, as |
understand, these shipments would
be perfectly legal. have become
forced by circumstances to resort
to extreme measures. Gen. Wey-
Ter, in his endeavor to gain glory,
and obstructing the recognition of
our belligerency, went 80 far in his
proclamation as to advise the
planters they would be able to
grind their sugar, while to the
government he gave the assurance
that the election wonld be peace
fully held, and to the country at
large he declared that Pinar del
Rio and some other provinces
would be soon pscified. Some Of
the planters, showing themselves
willing to believe the general
would keep his promise, began to
get ready for grinding the cane.
Under the circumstances | made
up my mind to invade Pinar del
Rio again, to show that we are
fully able to compel observance OF
the orders OF our government.
81 am perfectly satisfied with
the success that has attended all
my operations since the second in
vasion, which shall last as long as
there is anything to destroy from
which Spain may derive any rev.
enue. AS you will see, the dis
credit which the proclamations Of
Weyler intended to throw on our
revolution has, with what we have
accomplished, fallen on Spain,
whose incapacity to prevent our
movements has again been plainly

bill that shall preserve the best sugges-
tions contained in the private bills.
Illinois is poorer by millions yearly
because of its bad roads. In large sec
tons of the state hauling is impracti-
cable during at least 60 days of each
year, and during 90 more much less than
full loads can be hauled. The loss falls
mainly on the farmers, but the towns
men participate in it.
Legislators will do well to remember
that new and remarkably well organ
lied force has come into the political
field, and that it is force resolute for
good roads. We refer, of course. to the
wheelmen. There are districts in which
the cycling clubs hold balance of pow
er, and they will be apt to make it felt
against those who are not active in
favor of road improvement. Less in
number than the wheelmen, but never
theless strong and continually in
creasing force, are the clubs and .asso-
Citations of equestrians and drivers that
are numerous in Chicago, and that are
becoming numerous in all the cities.
These demand road improvement as We
hemently as the cyclers, and they, un-
like the cyclers, are direct contribu-
tors to the prosperity of the farmers,
for they are purchasers of horse flesh,
and are ready to pay good prices for
good mounts or for good drivers.
We are aware that there are few
rural districts in which the Importance
of the road question is underestimate;
debate will enlighten the representa-
tives of these communities. The person
most and first benefited by good roads
is the farmer. Indiana and Ohio now
have good road laws by which paved
and macadamized roads are constructed
by the sale of bonds that are liens upon
the lands abutting upon or neighbor-
ing to the improved roads. The conse-
guence is that lands that sold with diff
Guilty at S25 or $50 per acre when bound
ed by the old dirt roads, sell easily at
$50 to $50 now that they are fronted by
gravel or macadamized highways

Illinois Politicians VIII Have to Make
Good Their Promises.
The state platforms of each of the
great parties of Illinois gave pledges
for legislation in favor of good roads.
Now that the election is over, the peo-
pie will insist upon the fulfllment of
the promises made to them. Inasmuch
as both parties are pledged, there can
be no plausible pretext for regarding
the issue as partisan. 1t is quite prob
able that many bills will be presented,
and herein danger may lie. Perhaps it
may be well if joint committee on
roads be appointed by the house and
senate, care being taken that its MEM
bers represent fairly the rural and ur-
ban interests, and that one or two men
experienced in road building be upon it.
