GENEVA TREATY REVISION.
Congress at Berne to broaden the
scope of the Agreement.

This Government has received invita-
tions 10 participate in the congress which
is to assemble in Berne. Switzerland, to
revise the Geneva Treaty. under which the
Red Cross and other humanitarian work
is conducted when nations are at war.
The chief purpose of rhe gathering is to
broaden the scope Of neutrality during
the period of hostilities, so that all those
not directly connected with the belliger-
onts shall be afforded larger facilities for
conducting their humanitarian work.
IT is especially desired that the status
of surgeons, their attendants and hospital
patients be defined during the period of
warfare At present, when those engaged
in surgical and medical work on the field
are taken during or after an engagement.
they are held as prisoners of war the
same as those captured in actual conflict.
The same is true of sick and wounded
taken in hospital or on the field. Ii is
now desired to give immunity to these
classes engaged in humanitarian work or
disabled. Copies of the prospectus have
been received by the War and Navy De-
partments. and it is thought that this
Government viii send representatives, to
participate.

CAPTAIN MANNEY NOT BLAMED
No Individual Censure for His Pas
snre of Hell Gate.

Secretary Long said yesterday that the
Navy Department had no disposition to
find fault with Captain Manney, of the
battleship Massachusetts,. for taking that
vessel through He'll Gate channel. and the
order forbidding commanders of armor-
clads from taking similar risks was not
intended as a reflection on him. On the
contrary, the Secretary said, the depart
ment thought that Captain Manney had
performed a daring act in commendable
way, but believed that such risks were
unnecessary, and had. therefore, issued
the order forbidding officers from taking
them in the future. No letter of adno-
milton addressed personally to Captain
Manuey will be sent.
Naval officers on duty at the Navy De-
partment expressed admiration Tor the
courage and ability displayed by Captain
Manney. but there was a disposition
among them to approve the course of the
department in forbidding repetition, not
because the feat could not be performed
with safety in ordinary circumstances, but
to prevent commanding officers of men
of-war from unnece esSartly displaying their
ability in handling ships. merely 10 dem
onstrate that Captain Manney Is not alone
in daring and knowledge OF navigation.
The order on the subject was not sent
Thursday Before it had been sent word
came that the Massachusetts had made
the trip through Hell Gate and the order
was laid over for further consideration
yesterday. 1t was determined not to is
sue a general order to the entire service
but a special order addressed to Rear Ad-
miral Barker. cOmmandant of the New
York Navy Yard, and Rear Admiral Hig
ginSon, commander-in-chief Of the North
Atlantic Naval Station. Copies of the or
der were mailed yesterday afternoon to
Admiral Barker at Brooklyn and Admiral
Higginson at Newport.

How to Prevent

Berlin 1t prevents consumption and
cures catarrh in it's worst form (Which
is often the cause of consumption.
When breathed directly into the lungs
it kills the poisonous germ, and the
balmy, oily vapors heal up the sore
places in the lungs and actually cure
consumption itself. DR.. Koch's process

BANKING IN CHINA.

Before New York Financiers.

BUFFALO, June H.-At the second ses-

ers' Association, now in session in this

speaker He spoke on The Banking Sys-
tenn of China" He began by describing
the first coin of that country, made TWEEN
ty-seven centuries before the Christian
era, and gradually led up to the introduc-
ton of foreign commerce and money and
said:
Banking in this country, l understand.
includes in its transactions securities of
all kinds In China bankers deal almost
wholly with money and credit. Our mon
etary system Is not uniform throughout
the Empire. The only money which has
a recognized uniform value in every part
of the realm is the coin called by foreign
ers in China cash.
'.One would think that in a great in
ternational trade centre like Hongkong.
where the merchants are of nearly all
nationaIities. some Americans would have
established themselves in business, but
according to a report of your late Consul
General Wildman for 1900 there was not
single American firm in that colony. This
cannot be considered a satisfactory state
of things frori an American point of view
i hope that at your next annual convention
you will be able to report not only the
existence of some American mercantile
houses in that colony but through our In
fuence and support the establishment OF
an American bank in China
Although the volume of China's trade
with the United States is of considerable
magnitude and China draws largely upon
the United States for railway and other
supplies. most of the business is trans
acted, not with AmeEicans directly, put

ELECTRIC GHOSTS"

DR.. Oliver J. Lodge, in an address
no electrical engineers in Birmingham
on February 9th, thus defined an cleo
iron, that new term Of science which
has recently assumed SO much import
ance: An atom is ordinarily associated
with a charge, and force is required to
separate the charge from the atom.
The atom charge, when separated, is
called an electron. In an eIectrolyte,
i. e., "a substance decomposed by an
electric current, there is bodily trans
fer Of atoms with the charges; in a
metallic conductor the charges are
handed on, as electrons, from atom to
atom. In the discharge through high
ly rarefied gases the electric current
is in it's most simple form, "for here
there rs flow of eleetrons travelling
by themselves, of disembodied charges
or electric ghosts Elections, DR..
Lodge added, are the fastest moving
of all known terrestrial objects, their
speed being one-tenth that of light,
which is 10000 miles per second.

Alfalfa In the Hog Ration.


At the Oklahoma station alfalfa pass
ture, with and without the addition of
grain, was studied with a number of
pigs. Other forage crops we1, also
tested, including sugar beets, cow
peas, sorghum, sweet potatoes and pea
nuts. During part of the tests the feed
ing stuffs were cut and fed; during
the remainder of the time they were
harvested by the pigs. These tests
led to the u following general con-
customs: Alfalfa is excellent as pas
ture for hogs. Pigs will make some
gain with no other food, excellent
gains when fed grain on the alfalfa
Continuous pasturing will injure and
may destroy the alfalfa. Vita rare ex-
ceptions, alfalfa should not be pastured
the year it is soWn. Sorghum also
makes fair pasture for hogs. Sow
ing cow-peas, planting peanuts or
sweet potatoes, and allowing hogs to
harvest the crop, giving them some
grain in addition, reduces the cost of
pork production. Sugar beets are much
relished by any class of stock. The
greater cost=of growing them as com
pared with other crops makes it doubt
tul II they are an economical crop when
Used in large quantities. 81"

Clean Milking Important.

One of the things worth doing
well" is milking the COWS. Why, a
COW ought to be MIXED clean every
time is. too old story and has too
many arguments to back it up to
make lecture necessary every
time it is mentioned. But it's i'm
portance cannot be brought out too
frequently, says Jersey Bulletin. It
looks like little thing to some men
to slight a COW because she is a
"tegious' mixer; and it may be more
convenient to leave a quart of strip-
pings IN the udder than to put UP with
the side-stepping and tail-swinging
agitation of a nervous critter''. h1t
the owner of a good COW might bet
ter have a t.hand' who will steal from
him than one who doesn't milk the
COWS clean. He not only loses much
OF the richest milk-that is perhans
the least of the objections to such
neglect-but the practice of leaving
milk in the udder has a detericratine
influence on the capacity of the COW.
The longer it goes on, the less milk
she gives. And the small yield soon
becomes chronic s:
