session of the committee on agricul-
ture. which was supposed to. be Sc
cret, an official of the department
said that way had been found to
kill typhoid germs on a large scale.
He stated that in the compound used
for the purpose there entered one of
the essential elements of the we'll
known Bordeaux mixture. This state
ment was misunderstood and tho
gentleman who talked gave 1t out
that the department proposed by the
use of the Bordeaux mixture to de-
stroy typhoid.
1t moved some health officials to
roast the department. The latter
wants 1t understood that the germ
killer is not the Bordeaux mixture.
All doctors know that the latter could
not be used to purify a reservoir.
DR.. Moore made the discovery while
attempting to find a means of de-
stroying algae in water supplies
AIgae cause a green scum to form on
water and give it an unpleasant odor
and taste. The latter assert them
selves even in filtered water and 1t
has been considered desirable to find
an algae destroyer despite the fact
that they are not harmful. Dr. Moore
discovered the algae destroyer all
right and then found that it also
killed typhoid germs. A stronger So
luton, however, is required for the
latter.
Algae can be cleared out of a reser-
voir by using one part of the Moore
compound to 100000 parts of water.
For typhoid germs proportions neces-
sary to get fatal results vary from
one to 100000 to one to 100000. 1t
is. therefore, important to get the
compound into the water in the right
proportion.
Department officials say that the
Moore compound would not harm a
man even if he drank 100 quarts puri-
fled by the use of it. The cost of
clearing water of germs Is estimated
at from so to so cents per million
gallons. 1t is declared that the COM
pound will not only clear reservoirs.
but may successfully be used to puri-
fly water that is pumped from a lake
directly into service mains.

WASHINGTON, April 27.-Dr.
George r. Moore of the department
of agriculture has discovered a cheap
and effective means of killing typhoid
fever germs in drinking water. 1t
will be made public in a bulletin to
be issued this month.
Meantime the bureau of vegetable
pathological and physiological inves-
legations, to which Dr. Moore is at
tached, is involved in a world of
trouble. 1t had been intended to keep
the discovery secret until it could
be officially proclaimed to the coun-
try. The fact that such a discovery
had been made leaked out and a
wrong statement as to it's nature was
printed.
The result is that the department
is flooded with inquiries from people
having eXtravagant notions as to the
Moore mixture. A good many Of
them seem to think that a person
having typhoid fever will only need
to take a dose and then go out and
play third base.
If the discovery fulflls the prom
Uses made by the officials it will be
big enough to startle the country.
1t is not, however, a remedy for the
fever, they say, but means for
preventing the spread of the disease
by purifying the supply of drinking
water.
Skill will be required in the appli-
cation of the mixture and experts
must decide upon the best way of
meeting conditions in each case. The
season, the temperature Of the water
and various other matters must be
taken into consideration. The puri-
flying liquid will be applied under the
direction of agricultural department
officials or of boards of health.
The department is ready now to
discuss plans for the publication of
water with the officials of any city.
Correspondence is already in prog
ress with officials of several cities
the inhabitants of which are suffer-
ing from typhoid as the result of a
contaminated water supply.
The statement that the Moore COM
pound will clear typhoid germs from
the drinking water of any city is
made by officials OF the agricultural
department without qualification.
1t has not been made public because
the experiments have not been quite
completed. They will be closed up
in about 10 days.

been made leaked out as a result of

WINS

The petition of the Washington
Water Power company for writ pro-
hibiting the city from interfering
with the company while laying it's
track on Third avenue was denied by
Judge KEENAN, yesterday
The court held that it was without
power to grant the writ at any time
before the trial of the action brought
to ascertain the rights of the parties.
The action of Judge KEENAN, will in
no way affect the merits of the case.
1t was merely a question as to
whether the court had the power to
grant the writ that was decided.
The company holds that under
franchise granted in 1890 it has the
right to construct the track. 1t de-
MES the right of the city to exclusive
control of all the streets, but admits
that the city can control the manner
in which the tracks are constructed.

Exact Status of the Much Fore
Casted Anglo-Russian I'm
derstanding.
OLIVE BRANCH EXTENDED

LONDON. April s.-The Associated Press
learns that the exact status of the much
forecasted Anglo Russian understanding is
as follows: After King Edward had given
his personal assurance to Nicholas IL that
the Russophobic comments of the British
press did not represent the feeling of the
British government. Foreign Secretary
Lansdowne informed the Russian ambas-
sador. Count Benkendorff, that he would
be glad 10 reopen the negotiations looking
to a settlement of all questions now in
dispute between Russia and Great Britain.
Lord Lansdowne did not stipulate any basis
enter into any details Ambassador
Benkendorff expressed his pleasure at the
offer and transmitted 1t to ST. Petersburg,
where Lord Transformers action is under
stood to have been taken as material ex-
preston of King Edwards personal mes
sages. There, for the moment, the affair
stands.
Negotiations beyond Lord Transformers
office have not been commenced and are
not likely TO assume any definite phase in
the near future.
Both King Edwards personal action
and the step taken by his foreign secretary
are due to great degree to the untiring
solicitation of Queen Alexandra, who has
been greatly distressed over the war
which has involved her Russian relatives
and Great Britain's ally
Diplomats accredited to the court of ST.
James express surprise at the fact that
Lord Lansdowne has gone even so far as he
has 1t was believed. especially in German
quarters, that the suggested negotiations
lived only in the Imagination of the press
and that the authorities at ST. Petersburg
and London facility sanctioned the fallacy
In the hope of reconciling the British and
the Russian publics- That Lord Lansdowne
has taken such initiative while Great
Brftain's ally Is still at war with Russia
is regarded as being somewhat bold and
unexpected step, all the more so because
IL Is understood here that all the Rus
slams at st. Petersburg still studiously
avoid visiting the British embassy. One
of the members of the diplomatic corps
here, on learning what Lord Lansdowne
had done, said:
That is an olive branch with ven
geance."
