WASHINGTON. May "a dispatch
from Manila was received asking that
the Nebraska troops be removed from
the firing line, in view of the fact that
there were but 375 active men out of
some l 400 that had gone to the Philip.
pines over year ago. This application
was made to General Otis, who has full
authority to relieve the regiment from
active service at his discretion.
The secretary and assistant secretary
Of war were in conference with the
president before his departure for the
south and upon his attention being in
vited to the above cablegram, he spoke
in the most eulogistic terms of the brav-
cry and gallantry of the First Nebraska,
which has participated in almost every
battle fought in the island of Luzon
during the military operations in the
Philippines. Assistant Secretary Mel.
klejohn expressed the hope to the pres
ident that he might see his way clear to
grant the request of the Nebraska boys,
upon which the president directed the
secretary to have the request immedi-
ately complied with, if not already
acted upon by General Otis.

consideration of the smallpox situation

local health boards will pay itS5
This action was taken by the board
of health in view of a serious smallpox
outbreak in Jones county, the alarm
ing exposure in the college at Mount
Vernon and surrounding towns in that
part of the state, and the additional
fact that Iowa is anticipating the re-
turn of soldiers in the near future from

HITS AT AMERICAN meat
German Reichstag Committee
Rejects Government Measure.
PREPARES DRASTIC SUBSTITUTE.

New Bill Excludes Ham, Sausage and
Chopped NIeats-NIinistry Hopeful That
the Reichstag Will Reverse Action Of
Negotiations.
BERLIN, May 9.-It is authoritatively
stated that the committee Of the reichs-.
tag, to which was referred the meat in
spection bill, which was substantially
agreed upon between the imperial cab
met and the United States ambassador
here, Andrew ID. White, has reported
against the measure and in favor OF q
bill so hostile to the American interests
that the government will probably re-
fuse to sanction it.
The most unfortunate circumstance
as regards American interests in the
matter of the meat inspection bill was
the fact that there were insistent de-
clarations in the United States that en-
balmed and poisonous meats had been
supplied to the troops in Cuba. Repre-
sentatives of the German land owning
interests loudly declared that if the
Americans sent poisonous meats to their
own soldiers, they would certainly send
it to the Germans.
A bad result is that the bill as re-
ported back provides for examination
and inspection Of American meats i'm
possible to enforce without ut
terly destroying American trade
with Germany. The bill as remodeled
by the reichstag committee proposes to
exclude from Importation haras, hard
and soft sausages and chopped meats,
and prescribes that fresh meats must
come in whole carcasses or continuous
parts.
