have resorted to desperate methods to Sc

together. The threats of death have been
held up as the fate of any who refuse

counsel peace was to invite possible death.
The Flipinos are brave, but they lack

largely for the fatalities which have come

1t has been the cause of many deaths. Had

DIR. wHIrsITr WAS DRorpED.
Was President of southern baptist
Theological Seminary.

Louisville, KY, May 1l.-Dr. William II.
Whitsitt, who succeeded DR.. John A.
Broadus as president of the Southern Bap-
fist Theological Seminary in 1895. was
dropped from the presidency of that insu-
tuition, and also member of the faculty
at a meeting of the trustees tonight.
It was done by accepting DR.. Whitsett's
resignation from the presidency and from
the chair of history. 'as formally presented
to the Hon. Joshua lowering, president
of the trustees, last July. This was not
done, however, until a strong fight had
been made by the friends of Dr. Whicsett,
as well as those of the opposing side. and
1t required three sessions of the trustees
to accomplish the result
The friends of DIR. Whitsitt had nothing
to say tonight after the result was an
nounced and they will yield to the action
of the trustees.
In accepting Dr. Whitsett's resignation,
the trustees have in fact felt thai there
was nothing for his friends to do, since
the trustees have that matter entirely
within their control. 1t is said the friends
of DR.. Whitstt regwtted that he sent
in his resignation, feeling after il was
done that the action had been Ill advised.
The action of the trustees tonight viii
also color, to degree, the work or the
convention. 1t is not likely that the Car
roll resolution will come up in the con-
vention now that DIR. Whitstts resigua-
ton has been accepted. This resolution
was introduced by the anti-Whitsitt side
last year. after their defeat, and it pro-
vided for divorcins the seminary from the
convention, the ties between che two al
ready being very sight
The resolution would line up the two
sides to the controversy, it being the belief
of the anti-Whitsitt following that the pas
sage of this resolution, with the adoption
of another resolution introduced by Or.
Eaton would give the trustees absolute
control of the seminary, in Which case
the anti Whitsitt side could dominate thu
board.
Now that DR.. whistles resignation has
been accepted 1t Is not believed the Car
roll resolution win be introduced, al
though ii is possible and probable that DR..
Eatons resolution viii come before the
convention. This resolution authorizes the
state association 10 nominate these men to
fin each vacancy among the trustees, the
trustees themselves to select the man from
the three nominated. This nominating pow
er is given to the convention, though in
only two or three cases was this power ex-
ercised prior to the Whitsitt controversy.

PERSONALITIES IN FOODS.
THEIR USE Is DELETERIOUS AND
SHOULD BE STOPPED.


Drugs Are Sometimes AduIterated
with Dangerous ResuIts-DE. Pif-
fard Cites the Adams Case-Anti-
septics Are Used to Defraud and
Deceive Scientific Analysis OF
All Brands of Beer VIII Soon BE
Made at Washington.
Chicago, May 1.-Four prominent wit
nesses testified before the senatorial pure
food commission to-day as TO the effect on
the human stomach of the use of antisep-
tics and "embarming fluids" and preserv-
atives in foods and drink.
In general they were agreed that the
substances used were deleterious aud that
in many cases they were poisonous. Either
prohibit their use. they said, or compel
the manufacturers and users to brand
them plainly and explicitly, so that the
consumer may know exactly what is being
eaten.
These witnesses We're Henry G. Piffard,
New York physician: Abbott C. Prescott
dean of the school OF pharmacy of the Uni
versity of Michigan, and professor of by
gienIc chemistry; Victor C. Vaughn, dean
of the medical faculty at Ann Arbor,
and professor of hygiene and H.
c. Adams, dairy and food
commissioner of Wisconsin.
Referred to Adams Case.
DR.. Piffard made specific reference to
foods and drugs, which are being gem
orally adulterated some times with dan
gerous results to the consumer. Bromo
seltzer, he said, is one of these. Properly,
IL should consist of bromide of potassium
or some other substance of that kind, and
the ingredients of selIzer water.
But il appears" he continued, that
acetanlide is being extensively used in
stead. In the now famous Adams case
the expert examination of the bromo
showed the presence in addition to the
acute poison of acetanilide. so that l be-
lieve its use is widespread
The committee made this statement at
the close of the day:
THE things which seem to stick out
| above the details of the investigation are
| the facts that antiseptics are used indis-
criminately and to detraud and deceive;
that they are in most cases deleterious
| and in some positively dangerous. Sec
| ond that in the absence of explicit labels
| dishonest manufacturers are enabled to
| put spurious goods on the market. These
| things will be looked after in the propos-
| ed legislation"
| Severe Test for Beer.
The committees work in Chicago will
| be postponed after tomorrow for an IN
| definite time. Beer is soon TO be put to
| q severe test by the committee. A scien~
tific analysis of all brands offered in the
| open market will be made by the govern
ment experts at Washington, and their
report will become a part of the commit
tees records. Senator Mason said that
the regulations In regard to beer would
| receive serious attention.
The committee has purchased in Chi
cago many samples of butter, pepper cof-
| fee, jellieS and canned goods for analyti-
| cal examination in Washington. The sam
| pies will be freed of their labels, and the
| experts will make their Investigations

About Annexation.

New York, May 11.-Among the passen-

was released from quarantine to-day, was
Gen. H. o. Ernst who has been in Cuba
since January. He has been stationed
in Havana as inspector on Gen. Brooke's
staff.

he. lis bright, and the condition of the
island is improving. One hears very little
about annexation down there, though there
Is a sentiment tending that way among
the people. Those who have money and
business interests are generally in favor
of annexation.
''Many, however, are willing that the
islands should come in as a state after
independence has been declared
Gen Ernst said that in his opinion there
was no man in Cuba. whom he thought
was qualified to be elected president. He
said he did not think Gomez would ever
fill that position.
Gomez is a good man, but he has many
enemies Then, again, l do not believe he
is qualified to hold that office. Should the
sentiment for annexation increase, I be-
lieve Gomez would cause trouble He keeps
quiet as long as they dangle Cuba libTe
