YELLOW FEvEp GERMS.
1t Has Been Proved COncIusively
That the Mosquito Is Responsible
For the Spread of the Disease.

Havana, Jan. 1O-The American
commission, under the superintend-
ency of DIR. Reed, which has been
making examinations at Quemados
as to the propagation of yellow fever
germs by the mosquito has obtained
extremely satisfactory results.
DR.. Reed says the experiments
show beyond doubt that there is
no cOntagion from an infected person
or from infected clothing, but that
the mosquitoes alone are responsible
for the spread of the disease. In
the course of the commissions inves-
LEGATIONS six non-immune persons
were infected direct by the bite of
the mosquitoes which had previously
bitten yellow fever patients, and five
of these developed yellow fever.
The last experiment made proved
conclusively, DIR. Reed contends, the

matter up to the present time would
demonstrate that the affair would be a

body connected with it.
SecOnd-That even if the affair was
sparring exhibition, las contemplate

gerfest athletic club, as organized,
would not come legally within the
provision and intention of the stat
ntes.
Third-That the legal fOrmalities in
organizing a corporation of this kind,
One for profit, as it would undoubted-
ly be, have not been done in compli-

Berlin, Jan. 1O.-The war office has
received the following dispatch from
Count Won Waldersee:
"Peking, Jan. S.-The fortress of
Ho Pu, which was stormed January
3, was the headquarters of newly or
ganized bands of Boxers Over 1000
had terrorized the district, and they
were planning to march on Yen King

January 6, Count Won Waldersee says:
"Col. PaveIs column is marching to
Tai Ngon Flu, on the Pei Ho, to CO.
operate with Col. Madai's column
from Yen King, ~ kilometers north
west of Peking.
''Col. Pavel, after extremely severe
marches over bypaths and through
high mountains, stOrmed the fOrtifi-
cations January 3. These were de-
Tended by ten guns and from 600 to
1000 men. Having protected the

Europe about the end of March,"
Berlin, Jan. 1O.-Germany is not yet
willing to define her position with
reference to Secretary Hays proposal
to transfer the Peking negotiations
to Washington, according to state
ment made by high foreign Office
official, because an exchange of views
between the cabinet on the subject
is now proceeding. The German for
eign office, however, believes Mr.. Con-
gers view of the attitude of the en-
press dowager is correct and that the
position of the Chinese court at Sian
Flu is growing more and more unten-
able, rendering it probable that the
powers will soon succeed in persuad-
