as needful for the country as for them

ministry of finance to draft a law

the elaboration of such measures as
will legalize workmen's discussions of
their needs"
The proclamation, which it is an

origin of the recent events and declares
that evil disposed persons used the
workmen as their tools, leading them
astray by false and impossible prom
ises. II says:
d "The result of this criminal agitation
has been breaches of the peace, in
volving the inevitable intervention of
armed forces. These evil wishers
have not been restrained even by the
difficulties in which the fatherland is
involved, in a time of trying war,
while the workmen, their blind tools.
have dsregarded the fact that demands
were being made in their name which
had nothing in common with their
needs. beside forgetting that the gov
ernment always has shown and ever
will show itself considerate of their
needs and is now ready to listen at
tentiyely to their just desires and
satisfy them wherever possible"

5000 workmen who were growing OBJ

talities are reported. This was the only
event of the kind during the day. Re-

people are keeping indoors owing to
the official warning. The strike is
spreading gradually, but thus far is
confined to the smaller mills. The
larger industrial concerns are being
guarded in order to prevent the men
employed there from being inundated,

become general. There are no troops

there will be no papers tomorroU. The
citizens are alarmed at the prospect OF

PARIS. Jan. 25.-The international

sea incident began hearing witnesses
today. The meeting of the commission
was attended by a score Of seamen and
fishermen from Hull, giving the ses-
sion a somewhat nautical aspect. The

State Board Of Health DepIores Sani-

Parts of State

BY Associated Press
SACRAMENTO, Cal, Jan. 25.-The
report of the state board of health for
the month of December issued today,
among other things says:
1.-THE general health conditions of
the state are not all that could 5e
wished nor what they might easily be
made. Epidemics and infectious dis
eases have been quite prevalent and
have taken many lives that could
have been saved had the people un-
derstood the danger and the authori-
ties been equal to the occasion.
"Diphtheria. for example. is given
credit for killing six. AS matter of
fact many more have died in the out
lying districts which never report, and
where, owing to poorly organized
or no health departments, the disease
is not properly quarantined.
Typhoid fever has decreased mater
tally since last month but pneumonia
has increased almost 100 per cent. AL
though the death rate from this disease
is no more than in other Decembers,
it's large increase in certain locali-
ties shows the contagiousness of the
disease and the necessity of report
ing all cases and their isolation be-
ing insisted upon.
"Of the 1861 reported deaths in De-
cember, one-fourth were sacrificed to
want of proper information among the
people and proper sanitary laws and
organization"
