TO COMBAT TUBERCULOSIS.
Resolutions Adopted by Specialists in
Session at New York.

NEW YORK, June 4.-The American
Congress on tuberculosis brought its ses-
sion to a close to-day. Resolutions were
adopted asserting that tuberculosis is an
infectious disease, ordinarily communicated
from person to person by means OF the
dried sputum OF a consumptive patient, and
that it could be largely controlled by prop
er care of such sputum and the enforce
ment of comparatively simple measures;
urging that the health authorities dissem-
mate to the widest extent possible, through
the public press and otherwise. correct
information TO the manner in which
the disease is produced and the means
to be employed for its prevention; rec
ommending the establishment of institu
tions for the care of INDECENT consumptives:
that there should be state and municipal
supervision of all public conveyances for
the transportation of passengers, and that
in view of the fact that splitting on the
floors of public conveyances favors the
spread of tuberculosis and is injurious to
the health, transportation companies
should be induced to pass and TO enforce
rules against this action.

STRENUOUS DAY FOR POLICE.
Details OF the RiOting That Marked
the Progress OF the Caravan.


CHICAGO. June 4.-One of the most
Congress and State and Harrison and
State streets. BY some maneuver the strik-
ers succeeded in dividing a thrty-eight-
wagon caravan (the second one to leave
the yards to-day so that the front of it
lay at Congress street on State and the rear
at Harrison. While the vanguard battled
with crowd which hurled broken bottles,
stale eggs and other missiles, including
spools of thread thrown by women sympa-
thizers in the crowd, the rear guard was
called on to defend itself against a more
serious attack At this point the mob made
a desperate assault on the drivers, but was
compelled to turn its attention to the DO
lice. who came UP on the run. Twice tht
blue coats hurled themselves against the
infuriated men and twice they were re-
buffed and crowded back 1t was the most
desperate clash the police have had with
citizens in years. In several instances the
strikers and their sympathizers wrenched
clubs from policemen and used them
against their owners.
Meanwhile several men had gained a posi-
ton of advantage on the elevated loop.
from which they fired missiles at the of
ficers. In this way Officer John Mcclure
was hit in the head with a horseshoe and
so seriously injured that he had TO be taken
to a hospital. officer John Linencurjal was
less seriously hurt. Gus Billings. one of the
crowd. dubbed into insensbility by
the police and he, too. was taken to a hos
pital in a serious condition.
After the two Intellectual rushes at the
crowd. the police managed to organize
themselves in better shape and for the
third time rushed the mob. This time they
were successful. A number of heads were
hit but their owners in most cases escaped.
II was impossible 10 obtain anything like a
complete list of the injured.

police lost their tempers and dubbed with
apparent indiscriminstion. 1t was said that

several women and boys and one helpless
cripple received blows from the batons Of
the police.
The streets through which the cavalcade
passed by noon had become a perfect
maelstrom Of surging, excited humanity.
Inc slowly persistent progress of the meat
wagons was goad to the temper of the
crowd. Patrol wagons were kept busy
rushing to the various lockups with pris-
oners; ambulances hurried TO the nearest
hospitals where heads could be sewed up
but never did the strikers and their
sympathizers lessen their resistance. The
slght OF new arrests and of newly cracked
skulls whetted their appetites for more.

as a challenge.
An incident of the fights was the smash
Ing of an automobile. The machine was
caught In one of the blockades and smashed
to splinters. Another machine in which
were two women was caught in a sirnilar r
predicament. The occupants were so
frightened that they were at the point of
fainting when policemen rescued them.
While passing under the elevated rail-
road loop the caravan was endangered by
trolley wires which had been cut from
their fastenings and hung down to the
pavement. No one was hurt, however, from
this cause.
EGGS AND BRICKS.
Business on State street was in a state
of barricade for several hours Pickets
for the strikers persuaded sympathetic
drivers to drive into the thoroughfare in
order to check the advance of the meat
wagons. At Madison and State streets the
volley of eggs. bricks. etc. became so
thick and the street so congested that
the police were forced to charge upon
the crowd. Sympathizers in wagon loads
tried to drive into the squads of police and
many people were slightly injured in the
ftacas. One old man had his arm broken
by the blow from a policeman's club
and fed crying into side streets. Al Ran
dolph and Clark streets the mob which
was preceding and following the meat cara
van grew rfotOus again. From a coal wag-
on and from standing produce wagons the
crowd seized missiles and pelted the drivers
of the packinghouse wagons. Here the

The Indictment of Butler has been
in view ever since the return OF .. n.

robbcries of banks and railroad
trains, in the execution of which many
desperate encounters took place, and
a number Of men were killed. The
members Of the band had served
through the civil war, fighting on the
side of the confederacy with Qnan-
trell and his guerillas. The scene OF
