TONOPAH PLAGUE
IS PNEUMONIA
PHYSICIAN SAYS REPORTS
ARE EXAGGERATED
SICKNESS AFFECTS ADULTS
Peculiar Epidemic In Nevada Mining
Camp Explained by a Victim
Who Is Here Recu-
perating

DR.. II. e. Piper, a practicing physi-
clan of Tonopah, now in Los Angeles.
says the reports of sickness at that
mining camp have been greatly exag-
Grated.
"It is not the black plague, nor any
other kind of plague" he said last
night, but simply an acute pneumonia
of a very severe type. I myself suf-
fered from it for three weeks and
am now in Los AngelesA't6 recuperate.
1.-The sickness is believed to be due
to the lack of sanitary conditions, and
a sufficient sum of money has been
raised by public subscription to thor
oughly cleanse the town.
The disease, strangely enough, at
tacks only grown men. 1t became
prevalent in the latter part of Feb
ruary, but is now we'll under control
and the many people who left the
camp are now returning.
"In the early history of Tonopah the
town underwent similar epidemic
which failed to affect women and chill
dren. Other camps have not been
affected. Personally think it is prob
ably due to some climatic condition
with which we are not familiar"

RIDER HAGGARD
TALKS ON LABOR
NOTES GROWING S0ClALISTIC
TENDENCIES
COMMENTS ON LABOR UNIONS
Is Not Surprised at Finding Municipal
Ownership Advocated, and Thinks
the Worklngman's Position
Quite Natural

Special to The Herald.
NEW YORK, April 19.-H. Rider
Haggard, the novelist, who came to this
country to investigate the Salvation
Army colonies and similar commune
ties in this country for the British
colonial office, sailed for Liverpool
today on the Majestic, accompanied by
his daughter and Commander Booth
Tucker, who came to explain the sys-
TEN to Haggard.
In reply to a question regarding his
opinion on municipal ownership, Hag.
gard said that in this country, where
there is SO much freedom from tradi-
ton, and so much freedom of thought,
as we'll as progress, it was not surpris-
ing to find municipal ownership ad-
vocated.
The conversation got onto the sub
jects of labor unions and Socialism.
Mr.. Haggard did not attempt to give
the reasons for what he said was the
growing socialistic tendency of this
country, but he commented on the
rapadity with which such ideas were
gaining ground.
1.-The conditions as regards labor
unions" he said, ARE much the same
in this country as in England You
have the same questions to face that
we have. They are brought about be-
cause the laboring man desires to get
all the money he can. 1t is natural
am for the laboring man."

FELL UNDER HEAVY WHEELS

While his stepfather, ]. f. McCul-
Tough, was urging four horses to their
utmost to climb the steep grade which
lay before them, Andre Eastman, 0
years old, fell beneath the wheels of a
heavy dirt wagon in the river bed at
Ninth street yesterday afternoon and
was killed instantly. His skull was
crushed into shapeless mass. A negro

mother at 127 North Main street. Yes
terday afternoon he accompanied his
stepfather to the river bed for a load
Of sand.
Just before the ascent from the river

them a rest before driving up the steep
grade. Little Andre climbed down from
the wagon and ran around in the sand
Willie ne was WdlNHlS Iol his olcp-
| father to start again.
| Mccullough paid no attention to the
boy, thinking him safe in the sand. and
intending to leave him there until the
wagon had reached the top of the
bluff He gave the horses the word
and they commenced to ascend the
steep road. The wagon had not ad-
vanced more than a dozen feet be-
fore Mccullough heard a cry of warn
ing from the teamster behind him. He
stopped the wagon at once but it was
| too late.
The little fellows skull had been
crushed to a pulp by the heavy wheels.
The teamster who had shouted the
warming said that just when McCui-

climbed up on one of the rear wheels,
and when the wagon went forward he
was pitched under the wheel.

dered around the corridors of a board
ing house at 500 West First street yes
terday morning.
The man was evidently suffering
from hallucinations, and an officer was
sent for by boarders who feared that
the mild form of insanity might de-
velop dangerous symptoms. officer
Sam Mckenzie responded to the call
and when he walked up to the man he
was greeted with the same warning
which, like the cry of the leper, the
demented man bestowed upon all who
approached him.
Still muttering that Nan Paterson
would be bereft of help if the officer
arrested him, the man followed the
officer to the patrol wagon and went
to the station. He gave the name
of John Lillig officer Mckenzie was
later detailed to take his prisoner to
the court house and apply for papers
charging insanity
The officer started out with his pris-
oner, but time and again Lillig called
out the name of the woman seen in his
hallucinations. AS the couple were
passing the Title Guarantee and Trust
building Lillig suddenly broke away
and dashed into the building, with the
officer in close pursuit
Approaches Young Women
Nearly a score of young women were
in the building at the time and Lillig
started toward them. Fearing that his
prisoner would make an outcry If he
attempted to take him in charge, Nc

as he attempted to reach a fair young
woman.

officer, and Lillig started toward an
other young woman. "Tll tell you
where Nan is," said the officer. "Hel
case is now going on before Judge Will
bur and I will take you up there so as
to be IN time to help her out"
Lillig thought the idea good one

WASHINGTON, April 19.-When
Theodore p. Shonts took hold of the
building of the Panama canal he stip-
uated among other things that politics
should not be allowed to interfere with
his work in any particular. This has
raised the ire of seven hundred con-
gressmen whose names appear indors-
ing thousands of applications for Jobs
under the isthmian canal commission.
Business methods" is the announced
policy of the new president of the
canal board and it promises a vast
change in the working of the canal
commission in the near future. Chair
man Shonts stand is in direct line
with the presidents views and 1t took
them about two minutes to arrive at a
complete understanding on the ques-
ton Of hiring employees.
Mr.. Shonts told the president he
wanted free hand and the president
told him he should have 1t. That set
tied matters once for all AS result,
a big pile Of applications for jobs will
be run through by the new chairman,
who will disregard all the political in
dorsements. If, however, he strikes a
man capable of filling any vacancy he
may have in mind, that man will get
the job, despite his political indorse-
ments.

the third Russian Pacific squadron.
The report that Admiral Rojestven-

TAKE INITIAL STEP TO
PURIFY FOODSTUFFS
Los Angeles Health Authorities to Ask
Other Cities of the State to CO.
operate With Them

Los Angeles health authorities are
determined to take the lead in regu-
lating the manufacture of food articles
At meeting of the board of health
last night the new food ordinance, rec
commended to the city council, was dis
cussed, after which 1t was decided to
communicate with other cities through
out the state and ascertain If they will
be willing to cooperate with Los An
geles in enforcing the state law of the
same tenor.
Local manufacturers object to the
ordinance regulating the manufacture
of articles in this city that are to be
shipped elsewhere, on the ground that
they will not be able to compete with
San Francisco and other places.
1t was finally decided to recommend
that the proposed ordinance do not ap-
ply outside Los Angeles until commu-
nieation is had with the different cities
and towns of the state.

LOEB LEAVES FOR CAMP
Courier Chapman Is Serving as Guide
to Secretary

BY Associated Press.
GLENWOOD SPRINGS, Colo, April
19.-Secretary Loeb left here at 9:4O
will get a horse and ride to the presi-
dents camp. Elmer Chapman, the
courier who brought news of the sue
cess of the hunt, is serving as the Sec
retarys guide. Mr.. Loeb will remain at
the camp over night and return here
some time tomorrow. He has taken
with him a number of documents that
require the signature of the president.
The Charlie Penny ranch, where the
hunting party is now encamped, is In
the east divide. The party will move
to the west divide on Saturday or Mon
day. as it is reported game is more
plentiful there. Before the president
moves away too far 1t is the desire of
the ranchmen and mountaineers that
he visit Liberty school, where their
children are educated. This school Is
near the present camp and the chill
dren of the ranchers ride for miles to
attend school. The mission of Joe Aus
tin. who came to the Springs last night
with Courier Chapman, was to get Mr.
Ioeb to use his good offices in arrang-
ing the visit.
p. b. Stewart of Colorado Springs
will leave the party at the end of this
week. Mr.. Loeb then expects to &C
to the camp and spend two days with
the president.
Captain Austin told Secretary Loci
that a patrol has been organized ant

With President Roosevelt and Secre'
tary Loeb in camp twenty miles from
the nearest telegraph office, no new
of the hunt came out of the woods to-
day. When Mr.. Loeb returns here to-
morrow it is expected he will brinl
information of the luck that has at
tended the presidents hunt for biz
game. The president keeps a persona
diary and consequently the CORE
spondents marooned here await tn,
return of the secretary with mucl
impatience. storms consisting o
snow, hail and rain surged about tn
mountains in the direction of the eas
