There is some talk among the bus

IA view to keeping everything pure.
A Herald man called on Dr. Villas,

being used by some of the dairymen

Why. in some states a man can't
bring COW into the state but what
she is examined for disease. and the
same should be done here L am in
favor of compelling every man who
sells milk in the city to take otu a Ii

we may have him registered, and have
a city chemist to examine the milk
not only every month but every day.

good health IN the city.
The water also needs examination
but 1T will take t..e time and exper-

can get the council to appoint a man
for the purpose the better il will he for

NEW YORK, July 9.-Rev. Joshua
Kimber, assistant secretary of the
Protestant Episcopal Missionary Socie-
ty to-day received cablegram from
Bishop Frederick R. Graves, in answer
to one of inquiry sent on Saturday.
Bishop Graves is the bishop of Shang-
hal and the Tang Use valley. His
cablegram read:
"All safe. Ladies Japan. Notify
friends"
The Protestant Episcopal church has
no mission in North China, but it has
stations for thousand miles along the
great Yang Use river. Mr.. Kimber I'M
dertsandsl the bishops message to
mean that all the white women in the
P. E. missions in China, wherever sit
uated, have already gone to Japan.
A reassuring message was also re-
ceived to-day by Rev. Henry U. Cobb,
of the reformed church board. 1t was
from Amay and read as follows:
Everything and everybody well.

Rev. DR.. H. K. Carroll, of the NJ. E.
Missionary society, said to-day that he
was much more hopeful than he had
been last week and he would not be
surprised if all the missionaries should
yet escape.

OPINION UNANIMOUS.

Military opinion is unanimous that
IL the legations did not need relief, it

1T is certain that if the powers
make any movement elsewhere north

TO SEND ADDITIONAL TROOPS

If war should result from the present
troubles and the struggle be prolonged,
the troops in the United States, now
under orders for the Philippines, will
be available in due course of time. 1t
was rumored this afternoon that the
officials had concluded to dispatch ad-
ditional troops from the Philippines to
assist in the proposed allied move
ment against Pekin for the possible res
cue of tie foreign ministers and resi-
dents, but it was impossible to verify,
the rumor in official circles. Those
people who originated it seemed to be
positive of it's accuracy and even went
SO far into detail as to assert that the
Fourth and Eighteenth regiments of in
fantry, now serving in the vicinity OF
Manila, have actually been ordered to
prepare for embarkation to Taku.
Secretary Root was questioned in re-
gard to the report late this afternoon,
but declined in the most positive man
ner to commit himself on the question.
He would not say that no more troops
would be sent to China from the Phil
ippines, nor would he admit that such
a movement was in contemplation.
