MOROCCAN PROPOSALS
CONFERENCE INVITATION LIKE
LIZ TO BE DECLINED By POWERS.

FEE. Morocco. Friday, June mo doubt
is entertained in diplomatic circles that the
proposal in behalf of Morocco to submit the
French proposals to a conference of the
powers signatory of the Madrid convention
will be categoricaIly declined by the Brit
ish, French. Spanish and Russian govern
ments Uncertainty prevails regarding the
attitude of the other powers. 1t is thought
in some quarters that Germany may utilize
the Moorish proposals as pretext to enter
into direct negotiations with France. In
which case the Moroccan question may pos
sibly be settled in Paris or Berlin
The fact that the Moorish decision was
launched on the eve of the arrival here of
Gerard A. Lowther. the British minister, is
much commented upon, and is regarded as
being distinct mark of discourtesy to
Great Britain
Count Won Tattenbach-A shold, head of the
German mission, is evidently in high favor
at the palace where he has frequent inter
views with the sultan.
Strong Tension at Paris.
PARIS, June 5.-Strong tension Is devel-
oping in the cabinet as the result of the
rejection by the Sultan of Morocco of the
French reform proposals. The situation is
similar to that when Foreign Minister Del
casse suddenly presented his resignation
He has not given any indication of his pur-
poses, but reports circulate in well-informed
quarters that he may retire if his Moroccan
policy does not secure the united support
of the ministers
1t is expected that the sultan's action In
proposing to refer the question to an in
ternational conference will be submitted to
the council of ministers tomorrow. The
question of It's acceptance or rejection is
likely to involve also the cabinet situation.

couutry Of the world and about every

Wholesale exposures are of an unusual
character and are astounding, although
much that has come to the surface has
long been believed to exist
1t is unwise and unjust to human
nature to argue that old fashioned hon
esty is wanting among public men or
in high places. In spite OF past evil
dences of corruption society is star
tied over the developments Of today
and, moreover, is moved to wrath,
proof that there is virtue left to scorn
dishonesty and success gained by
crooked methods. SO long as there is
Il healthy public contempt for wicked

Doctors Disagree.

The New York Medical Journal offer
ed a prize for the best short essay on
1.-The Treatment of Erysipelas of the
Face" DR.. l.. W. Monroe OF Spring
field. ILL.,; DR.. John Douglas of New
York city and DIR. George A. Graham of
Kansas City competed Their essays
were printed in recent number of the
Medical Journal. They are interesting
mainly in that they confirm the com
mon belief that doctors disagree aud
that when they differ they differ rad
ically.
DR.. Monroe, for instance prefers the
use of cold poultices, wet dressings of
solutions Of aluminium acetate, bi-
chloride of mercury, ichthyol or car
bolic acid on the infected area, with
superimposed iced pOultices. The APP
plications of cold poultices he regards
as the most important feature of the
treatment.
DR.. Douglas says that he has found
nothing that with certainty will stop
the spread of the area of infection, but
that with Il tincture of iodine painted
on literally in broad band about the
border of the lesion he has had the
greatest success. He regards iodine as
more effective than nitrate of silver.
With collodion. recommended by many
text books. he has achieved the poorest
results. He recommends that wet
dressings should be applied to the
affected area, preferring ichthyol paint
ed on practically pure Apparently he
places no Importance on cold poultices.
advising only the use of an iced bag to
the head for restlesSness or delirium
Dr.. Graham states positively that for
many years past he has found that car
Donate of lead in the form OF ordinary
white lead used by painters is spe-
cifr for the disease when applied
thickly to the parts affected. lie says
he has used the popular and highly
recommended applications. such as
ichthyol. etc. with little or 10 benefit.
He says further that after using. with
little or no benefit, popular and highly
recommended applications recourse to
the white lead treatment has invaria
bly, effected Il speedy cure. one appli-
cation in most cases entirely checking
the disease and no ease ever requiring
more than two applications. Painting
with iodine, nitrate of silver and the
like he declares to be obsolete and use
less.
Thus do our doctors disagree
One secures excellent results with a
method which another declares to be
obsolete and useless. Another claims
70 have effected sure cures with a sim
pie method of which the others have no
knowledge or which they deliberately
ignore.
Good health and the preservation of
life are as essential to the community at
large and the welfare of the nation as
good crops. good money or interstate
commerce. The government has already
taken hand in investigating the food
and alcohol products placed before the
people with reference to their purity
and wholaSomencss. It could consist
entity engage in experiments upon the
treatment OF disease. especially any
which battles the skill of medical prac-
titioners.
