coal trust in his district, that OF the
southern half or New York state
General Burnett declined, however, 20
state the nature Of the investigation
be made by him, or when it would
be commenced, further than to state
that such an investigation had been
ordered, he would not talk.
The board OF aldermen yesterday
adopted a resolution urging Governor
Stone to call an extraordinary session
OF the legislature Of Pennsylvania to
consider measures to insure the i'm
mediate and full resumption Of the
coal mines. A resolution was also
adopted calling upon the mayor Of
New York to take steps to adopt
prompt measures to alleviate any
hardships to the poor of the city ow-
ing to the scarcity C coal.
Alderman Mccall said:
Threatens to Close Schools.
Il hereby give notice that if the
coal strike is not settled before the
cold weather comes l shall offer a
resolution here that the public schools
be closed. / am informed that the
board Of education spends annually
from 100000 20 $5,OO0,O0O for coal.
If the very grave situation that now
appears inevitable shall develop ]
shall ask this body to request the
board of education to close the public
schools and to distribute that. coal

Bids were to have been opened by
Commissioner Hawkes., Of the dock

Not Acting Because CT Strike.
Washington, Oct SIT Is stated
here that the investigation into the
alleged anthracite coal trust which

has no significance as regards the
present strike. SO far as the admins
tration is concerned. The matter was
referred to the district attorney for

course Of practice of the department.
Several days ago the department of
justice received formal petition
from New York, alleging the exist
ence Of an anthracite coal trust and
requesting the department to pro

Des Moines, Oct. 3.-Despite a wet
season not before in years has the
general health of the people of Iowa
been so good as at the present time.
This is the report made by the secre-
tary of the state board of health, DR.. j.
r. Kennedy, as indicated by the reports
made to his office. All infectious dis
eases must be Immediately reported to
him. There are few cases of scar
let fever, but there. is practically no
smallpox in the state now, whereas
year ago there were thousands of cases.
Last summer it was anticipated by
many that after the subsistence of the
high waters along the rivers of Iowa
there would be all kinds of trouble be-
cause of the nth left in the bayous and
pools. The doctors have been disap-
pointed If they expected any additional
business because of this, for nothing of
the sort has followed. The state is sin
gularly free from epidemics Even the
state veterinarian reports that he has
very few calls to look after sick live
stock in Iowa.

EMeALMED MILK.
Dairy Commissioner After MiIkmen

Special to Times Republican.
Waterloo, Oct State Dairyman
III. r. Wright, Of Des Moines, arrived
here on his way to Charles City to at
tend meeting Of buttermakers and
creamerymen today. Tomorrow sim
liar meeting will be held at Tripoli.
Z Mr.. Wright said this morning that
he had been giving his attention quite
literally Of late to the reports of adul-
teration In the use OF formaldehyde
as a preservative to keep milk sweet a
long time. Several complaints have
come to the dairy commissioners Of
flee on this account, and these are be-
ing investigated as fast as possible.
Little consideration is shown people
who thus adulterate their milk, and
the full measure of the severity Of the
law is visited in such cases. AS Is well
known formaldehyde is the basic prin-
ciple of all embalming fluids. It is
poisonous but requires q considerable
quantity to cause death Immediately.
AS used In milk. while deleterious. IL
may not be noticed for some time. It
was because of the use Of formalde-
hyde that the controversy arose over
the elnbalmed meat scandal in the
Spanish American war. The fluid was
said to have been used BY the packers
to keep their meat from putrefying
In the torrid climate Of Cuba and the
other West Indies where our soldiers
were Quartered.
Some milkmen get onto the fact that
10 small quantity will keep their milk
sweet and they throw aside honor and
all consideration of the health of their
patrons and palm off the doctored lac
teal fluid on them. There is nothing a
milk dealer could do to arouse the ire
of the state dairy commissioner SO thor
oughly as to be suspected of using the
embalming fluid in his product. The
presence Of the formaldehyde can cas-
lily be discerned by the commissioner
and the person using it runs big risk.
