SMALLPOX EPIDEMIC FEARED
AT TIME OF THE CORONATION
Representative of Associated Press
Informed That London VIII BE
Quarantined at That Time-Crews
of ships Being vaccinated--New
York Discredits story.

London, Jan. 1.-THE agent of one
asked by the representative of the AS
sociated Press If he expected an unus
ual number of Americans to be presen-
IN London at the time of the corona
ton of King Edward. He said:
No. BY May fear we shall have
such smallpox scare and epidemic
that London will be in quarantine
when King Edward is crowned"
That this is by no means a pessimis
tic forecast is evidenced by the fact
that the line referred to began this
week to have the crews of its ships
vaccinated prior to leaving London for
New York. Other lines are following
its example, fearing that any day the
American authorities may place Lon
don shipping under an embargo on &C.
count of smallpox.
The vaccination Of the crews is only
preliminary to the same operation in
the case of passengers, the English
shipping firms or agents having no de-
sire to undergo the financial loss which

On all sides in the United Kingdom
alarming precautions are on foot to
deal with the outbreak. The total of
smallpox cases In London now
amounts to only about 900. but the
cases are so scattered that they create
the greatest anxiety.
London's laboratories are all phe-
nomenally busy in turning out lymph.
thousands of tubes of which are daily
supplied, but the demand cannot be
met. Almost all the large firms are
ordering their employees to be yacci-
mated. Corporations are appropriate
ing sums for the erection of smallpox
additions to the hospitals, while sever
al steamers have been purchased in
London for the accommodation of the
present and expected patients.
Expert opinion prophesies that the
epidemic will not reach it's height un-
til May. The effect of such a condi
tion Of things on the coronation is
almost incalculable

Chicago, Jan. 13.-The Record Herald
says: As a result of the inter
state commerce commission investi-
cation at Chicago suits aggregating lie
tween $l,000,000 and 100000 probably
will be brought against the railroad COM
panies operating lines between here and
the Mississippi river for charges illegally
made for the shipping of cattle. A move
ment is on foot to have the various cattle
growers and shippers associations COM
bine with view of bringing test cases
against the railroads. The suits which
were contemplated will be for recovery
of the difference between the tariff rates
and the rates paid on packing house prod
ucts since June 80, 1901, cattle being en-
titled to equal rates with packing house
products. The cattlemen base their hope
of recovery upon the rulings of the su-
preme court to the effect that the same
rate must be made for the transportation
OF cattle that is made for dressed beef and
the products made from CATTLE

New York In steamship circles the
opinion was freely expressed that the
report from London regarding the fear
OF an epidemic Of smallpox there dur
ing the coming spring and summer is
exaggerated. So far as steamship
crews are concerned no apprehension
Is felt. Smallpox, 1t is said, is exceed
ingly rare among the sailors of the
transatlantic lines, because it is the
regular custom to have all the crews
yaccinated before they are allowed t.
enter upon their duties on board the
steamers.

London, Jan. l4.-Now that William

like favorable training conditions the

granted last week in the case of Robert
Iarrant against the local lodges of The
International Mhchinists' association and
the union piekets who have patrolled the
