which the charitable and correctional
institutions are conducted, was held

hotel, this afternoon.
Invitations to luncheon issued by
T. E. Hughes, president, and Charles
M. Stocking, secretary of the mission,
We're largely responded to by repre-
sentatives of the various organiza-
tions. There was an informal discis-
sion of problems.
..It was our purpose to afford op-
portunity for those in the same line
of work to get together said Mr..
Hughes. That was why the invita-
tions were issued If a discussion of
subjects of common interest followed
it might lead to something further,
cooperation

lice; T. b.. Hughes, president of the

WORK FOR ASl RATE
Twin Cities Likely to Pull Together
on the Illinois Coal
Proposition.
A Conference in Progress To-day Be
tween Representatives Of the
Two Commercial Clubs.

Soft coal for the twin cities at 1
a ton freigh: from the Illinois fields
seems more of a probability than when
the Commercial club of Minneapolis
took UP the matter a week ago. To-
day a, conference is being held in st.
Paul. Secretary Wallace G. Nye of
the public affairs committee, and
Chairman F. r. Salisbury of the
manufacturers committee are in ses-
sion with ST. Paul club special COM
mittee looking. to a joint committee
to take up the matter Immediately
with the railroads.
Bituminous coal consumers were in
clined to give the proposition the cold
shoulder when it was first 'broached
by the club. They figured that the
Illinois fuel was not what they wanted.
Investigation has shown that there is
more in the suggestion than was ex-
pected, for yesterday the office build
ing managers waited on Mr.. Nye and
showed much interest in the cheap
coal plan.
The Burlington is reported to be
willing to make the rate, but is meet
ing with much opposition from a rival
Minneapolis road, which also covers
the Illinois coal fields. The joint COM
mittee will endeavor to add starch
to the Burlington's inclination.

DR.. HALLS TURN NOW
Defense in Judge Case Begins Fight
With Motion to
Dismiss.

The plaintiff rested this morning in the
case Of Annie Judge. executor of the es-
tate Of the late James Judge, against Dr..
q. M. Hal health commissioner. At the
close of the testimony the defendant s
counsel made motion to dismiss on the
ground that a cause of action had not been
made out as the plaintiff had failed to
prove that Judges death had been caused
from the exposure incident to his escape
from the detention hospital last spring.
Arguments OF, counsel are being continued
this afternoon.
Oscar Berger, superintendent Of the
hospital, yesterday testified that the
death Of Miss Prue was caused by an
overdose of morphine administered by the
order of DR.. Hall. Berger also swore that
DR. Hall had directed him to administer
hypodermic Injection of strychnine to
the patient Nelson.

He FINDS new RAY
A Former Minneapolis Physician
Says His Discovery 0ut-Roent-
gems Roentgen.
He Is Now Bound for Europe to
Tell Scientific Authorities
About It.

DR.. Corydon e. Rogers, formerly a
well-known physician here, is in Min
neapolis again for a few days, and is
astonishing his former associates by
announcing the discovery of light rays
which he declares are more efficacious
than the Finsen rays in cur
ing disease and more powerful
solid matter. Local physicians are a
little ,skeptical, but admit that if DR..
Rogers has. made such discoveries
wonderful results will be obtained in
the treatment of tuberculosis, lupus,
cancer and many other stubborn dis
eases.
DR.. Rogers has published a work
on "Lucotherapy (light-hsaling)
which has been favorably commented
upon by the American Journal Of Der
matology. which has asked him for
regdlar contributions. The real dis
covery is to be revealed to the med
ical world in current numbers Of the
Medical Era, which will be out in a
few days.
Among the statements made by DIR.
Rogers to a Journal reporter this
one Of the easiest of all diseases to
cure There is no chemical action
to light In explaining the latter
statement he said that it was the
vibratory force and not chemical ac-
ton of the rays that destroyed the
pathogenic germs. His rays are more
effective than those employed by DIR.
Finsen, the eminent Danish physician.
who is making most wonderful cures.
for whereas DR.. Finsen employs only
the actenic plus the violet and blue
rays, the Rogers rays include not only
all the Finsen rays but the remainder
of the spectrum and the heat rays.
DR.. Rogers is on his way to Europe
to submit his theories and apparatus
| to the men of science, but he will also
| install his apparatus in the Cook coun-
i ty hospital. Chicago.
