SAMUEL M'CALL.

TChairman Of house special committed
Call report What was called for was
a list of the cases where leases had
been cancelled and renewed at high
er rental on the recommendation of
members. Instead of this a list was
prepared under the direction of Fourth
Assistant Postmaster General Bristow,
purporting to give all cases where
members of congress had made any
recommendation with regard to the
leasing of premises or allowances for
rent, fuel and light in connection with
postof1ces."
Continuing, the report says: "Pre-
cisely how this came about is not
clear. The chief inspector testified
that he told the fourth assistant that
he thought the inspectors were doing
work not called for, but that Mr.. Bris-
tow replied that he mad talked with
Mr.. Overstreet and knew just what he
wanted, and he instructed Mr. Cochran
to continue the work as it was being
done.
ION the other hand Mr. Overstreet
states that the only communication
upon the subject he had with Mr.. Bris-
low related TO the leases from HELL
bers. Apparently Mr.. Bristow misun-
derstood Mr.. O7erstreet and applied
what was said to all the leases involv-
ed. Bat no duty devolved upon the
committee to use more than it desired
nor to make the whole or any portion
of it public"
The committee concludes that the
impression made upon the minds of
the members of Mr.. Overstreet's COM
mittee by the publication in a news
paper of the fact that the report was
in it's possession, together with the in
ference that it contained things which
were a serious reflection upon mem
bers, was the reason for its publica-
ton by the committee. ''It thus came
about the report continues, that
the report was published containing
the names of many members of con-
gress which never should have been
associated with the so-called charges
set forth n the Hay resolution"

AN INTERESTING TEST
Convincing Experiments Show How
the Household Pests May Con-
vey Disease Germs.
Every Footprint of the Fly Expert
mented With Carried Com
tagion With 1t.

Lafayette, Ind, April 13.-Professor
Severance Burrage OF Purdue universe
ty, has demonstrated that typhoid fe-
yer is carried by flies much in the same
manner as malaria is carried by mos
quitoes. The f. does not have the
power of inoculating the victim with
the typhoid fever, as does the long
billed mosquito, but Prof Burrage's
experiments show that the typhoid fe-
yer germs are carried from one place
to another by flies, and when carried
to the proper conditions multiplica-
ton is speedy, making a formerly
healthy place strongly polluted.
The fact was proved by Prof. Bur
rage by forcing fly that had been in
typhoid fever matter to walk half an
hour later through the proper culture
media. In every footprint of the fly
after the germs had had time to de-
veIop, large colonies of typhoid fever
organisms were found. Prof Burrage
has photographs of several culture
plates showing this growth.
