Courts to Settle Property of Catholics
VS.. Schismatics.

Washington, Dec. 31.-Secretary Root,
by a decision just rendered, practically
has thrown into the hands Of the civil
courts in the Philippines for decision the
the Catholic church in the islands, which
has developed into an actual schism. The
schismatics, under the leadership of a
priest named Aglipay, have retained pos
session Of a large amount of church prop
erty which is claimed by the Catholic
church, and the latter appealed to CIV
Taft to dispossess the schismatics. The
governor held that the question was one
for the adjustment of the civil courts
and the case came to Washington on APP
peal Secretary Root has sustained Gov
Taft's view. The importance Of the ma t.
ter to the United States government lies
in the fact that the property in contro-
versy is part of that to which title must
be passed to the United States if the
negotiations NOW in progress between
Gov Taft and Mgr Guidi succeed.

referring to the discovery said to have
been made recently in England that lem
ter. ard to have been proved by expert
ments in Chicago. says he knows these
experiments have been tried often before
and that many physicians treat their ty-
phoid patients with lemon juice.
Dr. w. II. Billings bacteriologist of
the department. said: Il have not made
any experiments myself, but | am sure
that lemon juice in water will kill germs
if enough is used. Orange juice will do
the same thing, and in fact we have been
feeding patients that right along. There
is nothing new in this discovery of lemon
Juice. 1t takes more orange juice than
lemon Juice, because the former has lot
so much citrc acid in it. There is 10
doubt that acid will kill typhoid germs.
