Dr. MacFadyn explains the application
of the serum to animals and details his

the serum is a curative Of typhoid as well
as a protective against Infection. i.
It may be cOntended that that is true

is not satisfied to accept this hypothesis
without experimental verifica ton, and the
Jenner Institute Is now investigating the

Lincoln, Neb.. March 14.-The unlimited
indebtedness bill, the passage of which
was sought by the Hill Morgan railroad
merger at the hands of the Nebraska
legislature, has received it's quietus. The
discovery that tho bill had passed the
house by stealth, without that body be-
coming conversant with its true import.
stirred up the most excited debate Of
the session. .:
The house was considering the revenue
bin at the time. the taxation Of railroads
being the chief feature of the discussion,
and the allegation that railroad corpora
ton had tricked a branch of the legisla-
ture into passing a bill. the provisions
of which were not understood, touched off
a mine of explosive oratory.
Representative Douglas of Rock county
was criticized in >caustic fashion for his
part in introducing the measure. He
pleaded that he was innocent Of intended
deception and closed his defense by Offer
| ing to go before the senate committee or

consideration, and urging it's rejection.
Later Mr.. Douglas appeared before the
committee and made the request. and the
committee voted unanimously to repor
against adoption.

| Chicago. March 14.-Alarrued at the ac-

| in forming associations, the labor unions
of Chicago are forming alliances on the
Community of interests plan. and pre-
pairing for the battle which, some of the
leaders believe, will inevitably follow the
| organization Of the employers.
Following tho formation of the spring
trades federation last Sunday. Lee S.
Fisher, business agent of the Machinists'
union. has been commissioned to form a
metal trade federation, and will start the
work next week. This federation will be
composed of the unions of machinists,
iron molders. blacksmiths, boiermakers,
metal workers, metal polishers. pattern
makers, coremakers, stovemolders and
stove mounters. national federation OF
the metal trades is already in existence.
| Another alliance Of unions is under way
the members Of which handle horses and
wagons. The alliance will be composed
of horseshoers, stable employees. wagor
Iblacksmiths. harnessmakers Wagonmakers
and carriage painters.
| The Shipping Trades Federation. which
was organized last Sunday, is composed
of teamsters, freight-handlers. 'longshore-
men, seamen. switchmen. railway clerks
railway eXpressmen, shipping clerks
wholesale grocery employees, wholesale
drug employees, commission merchants
makers.
The Packing Trades Council. composed
of unions in the packing industry at th'
stockyards has been in existence for sew
eral months, as has the advisory board o
the building trades, composed Of building
, trades unions.
None Of these alliances is intended tt
encroach on the scope of the Chicago Fed
Grafton of Labor, as all the unions will
retain their affliation with that body; bu
as there is direct affinity between tn
various unions in the new alliances, the.
can all act concertedly in the event of on
of the organiza tions being attacked b.
the employers, and in a measure comba
the prejudice against sympathetic strikes
While none Of the labor leaders will b.
quoted at this time as expressing alarm
it is known that they are watching tn
organization of the employers closely
They say they are not to be caught asleep
but if a struggle is forced upon them the!
will be in position to startle the indus
