DRIVE MEN
FROM INDUSTRIES

Detroit, Aug 1S--The speech OF
Mrs. Bodine, superintendent OF compuE
sorry education i'm Chicago, created a
sensation among the delegates to the
convention of factory inspectors and
sOciolOgists yesterday. The speaker
produced federal statistics covering the
past 20 years, showing that the indus
trial competition of women, children
and machine labor was driving mem out
of the large cities to the fields OF
heavy manual labor in mining and
agriculture. She declared that woman
was destined to be the ruling sex in
industrialism. Discussing society she
declared that if conditions continue as
they are today, within a decade the
question of the neglected children of
the rich will become as great social
problem as that of the neglected chill
dl en- of the poor.

teous treatment which the sons Of
influential Chinese officials have re-
ceived at the hands of American Off
Gals on landing at San Francisco.
Mr. Davidson thought the fact that
orders had already been placed for
six months ahead for delivery of
American goods would prevent the
boycott being successful, but he ad.
mitted that a popular anti-foreign
feeling might be aroused which would
carry the fight beyond control and re
suit in serious consequences.
"The purposes of the boycott" he
says, have never been to secure the
admission of coolies, but to gain a
proper treatment of the exempt
classes"
Portland, Ore. Aug. 1.-THE Tele-
gram says that $4,000 will be raised
by the Chinese of Portland to aid in
the boycott in China against American
goods Two meetings OF the local
colony have been held at which it
was decided that each Chinaman in
Portland could contribute at least So
to carry on the campaign. This move
ment was instit-ted by a secret organ

FEVER RECORD.

New Orleans, Aug. 1.-THE arrival
of DR.. John Guiteras, the Cuban vel
low fever expert, and his tour OF the
seat Of the worst infection, was the
most interesting feature of the yellow
fever situation yesterday. DR.. Guiteras
came from Havana to make an inspec
ton of the gulf cities in connection
with the Cuban quarantine and to offer
his assistance in the campaign in prog
ress here. After visiting various
points DR.. Guiteras expressed himself
as thoroughly pleased with the results
of his inspection and experts to see
here universal acceptance of the mos
quito theory at the end of the present
campaign.
The situation again shows an i'm
provement both as to new cases and
| deaths, considering the totals of last
week, and while the marine hospital
officials are unwilling to be quoted
now, they are known to entertain most
hopeful views. The results achieved
to date, however, bear out their expec-
tations. The daily cases last week ex-
ceeded in number the high water mark
previously reported for any day by the
i city board of health, the tide reaching
its height Sunday Since then there
has been a decline in the maximum,
which is taken to mean That the city
has been SO thoroughly fine-combed
that the number of hidden cases still
existing is insignificant and that with
the rentless destruction of stegomia
that has taken place, the new cases
must hereafter fall far below the
climax of last week.
A suspicious case of fever which may
develop into yenow fever was reportel
| yesterday from Algiers, near which
/ the naval reservation is situated. 1t is
a long distance from the case which
occurred in Algiers over three weeks
ago and the patient is a girl employed
within the area of infection on this
side of the river.
Malaria, Not yellow Fever.
Indianapolis, Aug. 16.-The case of
supposed yellow fever at Crawfords-
willie has been pronounced by an expert
to be acute malaria fever.

sTDCKMEN COMPLAIN or LAW.
Object to Unloading and Feeding Cat
tie While i'm Transit.

Chicago, Aug. 16.-Secretary of
yesterday with about SO cattlemen at
the Stockyards Exchange, on me sub
ject of the livestock question The
cattlemen made it plain that they were
peers to feed antl rest cattle every 28
hours ON the Journey east. They
wanted it extended to Sc hours The
ranchmen argued That it distresses the
to take them from the cars every 28
hours, prodding them with poles and
banging taem against the sides, doors
and cattle PEN chutes, than it does to
allow them to remain in a car for a
day and half. Secretary Wilson told
the stockmem that he could not change
tGle law but he agreed to modify the
order which now limits the number OF
cattle in cars when they are fed en-
route.
The railroads also contend that un-
loading every SO hours is often enough.
The government, at the instigat1on of
the secretary, has filed 100 suits
against the railroads for violation of
the statutes AMI the railroads are
anxious to nave the whole matter
settled on condition that they live up
to the law in the future. He will give
an answer to the committee today.
