DECLARES TUBERCULOSIS
CAN BE STAMPED OUT

London, March 24.-The campaign
against consumption should receive a
tremendous impetus from two events
which formed the most striking fea-
lures Of the attending Of the National
Association for the Prevention of Con-
sumption.
The first Of these was the announce
ment OF the magnificent gift Of Wern-
her, Bert & Co, Of 5000, 900 for the
erection of a sanitarium. while the
second was the striking speech Of Sir
James Crichton Browne, the famous
physician, IN which he emphasized his
conviction that the day was coming
when the terrible scourage Of human
ity would be eradicated.
There could be no doubt he said.

TERRITORIES MUST
PAY LOBBYISTS
Federal Ruling is Made
Against New Mexico

Washington, D. C., March 24--The
comptroller OF the treasury rendered
a decision yesterday which is IN eff
feet that when a citizen Of a territory
comes to Washington as the represen-
tative Of that territory and lobbies
for bnl whose passage will benefit
the territory, the territorial govern
ment must pay his expenses. This de-
cision was rendered by the comptroller
in the case of William II. Andrews of
New Mexico, who come to Washing
ton at the last session Of congress
and iobbied for the omnibus statehood
bill.
Mr.. Andrews was formerly a Penn
sylvanian. He was for many years
the chief lieutenant of Senator Quay
in PENNSYLVANIA politics and served in
the keystone state legislature and
held other state offices. A few years
ago he went to New hsexico and began
the construction of a railroad through
the territory. Later he entered poll
tics. and last year was elected a mem
her of the New Mexico senate. When
the statehood agitation was started
he Joined Delegate Rodey here and
with him planned New Mexico's cam
paien. 1t was generally understood
that If the statehood bin was passed
Mr. Rodey and Mr. Andrews would be
the new states first senators Nh
Andrews. however based his support
of the statehood project on higher
and more impersonal grounds he did
much effective work for the statehood
bin. He was personally acquainted
with nearly all Of the eastern senators
and camped on TIE trail of tho doubt
ful ones. finally bringing some Of then
of the fence into the statehood ranks
He returned to New Mexico grievous
" disappointed over the defeat of the
statehood bill.
Arriving in Santa Fe. Mr.. Andrew
fled with the treasurer of the TERRITORY
a bill for his expense during his sta.
in Washington He had been livinl
at the New Willard, where the rate
are high. and his expenses were large
The treasurer refused to pay the bill
for the reason that he had no authorlt
to do so He passed It on up to tn
comntroller of the treasury for a de
cisjon 1t was admitted that Andrew
had come to Washington as the repre-
sentative of New Mexico The CONF
troller decided that the expense aC
count was a valid one and that it mus
be paid The territorial treasurer a

While Mr. Stewart is not apparently

the past two years, during which he
claims nearly one-third Of the capital

holders and every prospect Is bright

A TYPHOID.RIDDEN TOWN
BUTLER, PA, REPORTS 1900 CASES
AND 10 DEATHS SINCE SEPT. Is.
Empty Buildings Are Being Used as
HOspitnls-Nurses and Laundrymen
Needed-Water Polluted.

BUTLER, Pa, Nov. 28-Since Sept. Is
Butler has had 1 300 cases of typhoid fever
and fifteen deaths. One death was reported
to-day and new cases continue to develop.
The State Board of Health to-day inves-
tigated the cause of the unusual conditions,
and tonight issued a statement, in which
1t says the cause is the pollution Of the
water used In the greater part Of the bor-
ough. The pollution is clearly traceable
to Thorn run dam. the reservoir OF the
Butler Water Company. The board found
that the premises surrounding the farm
house in which the fever drainage was car
ried into the Thorn run reservoir, have
been thoroughly ditched so no drainage
can now reach the dam.
In response to appeals nurses are arriv-
ing on every train, but domestic help to
wash the clothes and bedding of the pa
tents is as much needed as nurses. Empty
buildings have been improvised for hos
pitfalls. The relief committee has asked all
the ministers and doctors to report to them
all cases of worthy need. Among the 500
Slav and Russian residents there are sew
enty typhoid fever cases, not one of which
can properly be treated.

realized from the assets in money, and by
some of the creditors the offer. which will

Local creditors are hopeful that an adjust
ment which will admit of the works being
started again may be reached.
