AUTOS TO REPLACE
HORSES At PRINIERY

Public Printer Stillings is considering
changing the drayage system at the
Government Printing Office from horse
power to motor power. The change, he
figures, will be an ultimate. saving 10
the Government CT a considerable sum
of money annually.
The argument he puts forth In sub
stanuating his plan is. that with an
electric motor the delivery or goods, the
necessary running about town on Of
fcial business. and the fact that gen
orally speaking the motor vehicles are
always ready for use. will expedite the
work. and be great saving OF time and
money. Then again it was pointed out
by Mr.. Stillings that the monthly eX-
pense Of keeping a horse averaged from
SIS TO s25 outside of stable help hire.
With automobiles doing the work of
the horsepower wagons, Il is expected
that fewer vehicles would be necessary.
This would cut down the salary expense
Of the big printery. Another item that
Mr. Sullings thinks would be saving
in is the necessary purchase OF horses
from time TO time The horses, ne
SAYS, are liable TO 'indisposition the
same as a man, while with the machine
propelled vehicles. with ordinary care
They would be ready at any and All
times.
IL is figured out that after the change
is made, which Will be il Mr.. Stiliings
recommeflda tons are adopted. a saving
OF many thousands OF dollars ann udlit
viii be made. In fact II would not IN
cur, so he says, any additional expense
the first year after the change was
made.

NEW NAMES OF STREETS

A petition representing the desire Of a

the historical, and I'm some instances
traditional. names OF streets restored, is
now being seriously considered by the
Senate Committee on the District of Co
lumbia
Property Owners Not Consulted.
The petitioners claim that the District
Commissioners did not consider the de-
sires OF the properly owners or residents
OF the streets affected, and ask that
Congress enact such legislation as will
restore the old names. The streets ar
fected are those heretofore known as
Grant. Sherman. Sheridan, Howard.
Staughton, yelling, Roanoke, Princeton,
Yale. KenesaW, and Park.
Much inconvenience and annoyance
has been experienced by the residents
along the streets named since the
change Of names became effective. The
old names, the petitioners claim, had be
come familiar by long usage, while in
stead the names adopted are unfamiliar.

In fact il is pointed out that they do
not maintain through the alphabetical
principle upon which they are supposed
to have been selected. This, IN conclu-

with 4 supposed system.

STRUCK BY TRAIN
Another Accident Took Place Near Meriden Junction This
 Morning.

Another serious accident occurred this morning near the Meriden june ton and workmen will be soon become superstitious about laboring in that vicinity if many more mishaps take place. It was only a short distance from where Michael Shea received in- juries on last Friday from which ne died the next morning, that the acci- dent happened this morning.
 The man injured this morning is Michael Zotti, young Italian labor CT, employed by the O'Brien Construc- tion company. He resides on Jewelry street and is about twenty years of age. He was crossing the tracks when an oncoming engine just hit him and knocked him against q switch post. The young mans leg fell back on the rails and the engine passed over the member. The leg was crushed to q pulp and if the man recOvers the limb will have to be amputated.

APOTHECARIES HALL CASE
Battle Will Begin Tomorrow Rice Intends to Fight It Out.

There seems to be a big storm gath ering about the injunction which Col Onel Burpee as counsel for I. F. Kel- logg, treasurer of the Apothecaries' Hall Co, had served Saturday after noon upon Levi Wilcox. secretary of the company, and A. F. Rice admin istrator on the estate of F. B. Rice, his father, who was its president.
 The annual meeting and election of officers of the company was held Sat urday afternoon and the purpose of the injunction was to prevent MT Rice from voting on his fathers stock, it being his object to vote Mir Kellogg out of office and vote <. P. Williams in in his place. The injunction was to be served only as last resource. There being no prospect of peace. 1t was served and Mir Rice did not vote.
 But Mir Rice intends to fight it out fin the courts. He has retained Attor- ney x. R. Bronson and today Mir Bronson appeared before Judge Shum- way and asked for an order of notice to be heard on motion to dissolve. the injunction. Judge Shumway grant cd the order and tomorrow afternoon at ! o'clock the battle will begin. Col onel Burpee will represent Mir Kel- logg.
 It is claimed that Mir Rice does not own any stock in the concern; at least his name is not on it's books The stock his father represented was own ed by his grandfather. X. F..

Millions of Children
 Sacrificed. EXPERT TESTIMONY
Connections Known as Soothing Syrups and Impure Milk Have Killed Infants by the Mil-
 lion Says Chemist.

Washington, Feb That more than q million infants had been sacrificed to the various connections known as soothing syrups and pain killers and over twice that number killed by i'm pure milk was the declaration made last night by Professor II. w. Wiley, chief of the chemistry bureau of the department of agriculture.
 'We do not know anything about the milk we have left at our homes or the condition under which it is pro- duced," he added. ''There are q thousand and one possibilities which might have combined to make what nature intended for a food the most virile poison that chemistry can pro- duce.
 q have found that the foods we daily consume are so fraught with germ life of harmful nature that I am almost afraid to go to the table. The butter is painted; there is little other to be found anywhere. Canned goods are kept for years and sold for the genuine article. I speak particu- larly of condensed milk. If we know nothing of the fresh milk we get sure ly our knowledge is more limited to the product that is put in cans The Lord intended us to resort to cans only to tide us over one season; until green fruits could be had again, but the canneries don't knoW this. There is no law requiring them to stamp the date upon their goods; if they did, it would kill the sale"

JUVENILE CRIME IN ITALY.
Eighty Per Cent. of Child Malefac- tors Manufactured by Bad
 Environment.

Consul Britain, of Kehl. Germany, furnishes some startling statistics on juvenile crime in Italy. taken from an article recently published and written by Limo Ferriani. He says that 80 per cent of the child criminals of Italy are manufactured by bad en- vironment and inadequate education in other words. by preventable causes; that 30 per cent of the crim- inals of the country are minors. and of these 75 per cent are thieves.
 Prof. Ferriani protests against sen timental description. but pleads for scientific investigation. He himself has closely studied 800 boy prisoners between the ages of II and IA, and reports that more than half of them came from the most vretched homes. and over 200 of them had criminal parents. Very few had ever done any work. all were sexually corrupt. nearly all smoked. and many had a taste for alcohol
 As proof of how little good is efiect- ed by mere instruction apart from moral training he asserts that the best scholars were among the worst offenders. As an alternative to prison the author proposes agrieultu- rzI colonies in districts where the air is bracing- with good food and outdoor work. kindly discipline and the supervision of an experienced phy- sician-

DIR. ELY DEAD
The Eminent New Haven Physi- clan Dies From lnju-
 ries To-day.

New Haven. Conn.,. Feb. 7-Dr John Slade Ely, one of the most eminent physicians in this city, died to-day as the result of fracture of the skull, which he received by fall from his horse on Monday last. Dr Ely was thrown heavily on an asphalt pave ment and never regained conscious ness.
 Yesterday an operation for the re moval of clOt of blood from the brain was performed and for short time it was believed that this opera tiOn would be the means of saving his life. He suffered relapse however, and died at 4:30 o'clock.
 Dr Ely was 46 years old and was professor of theory and practice of medicine in the Yale medical school, holding that position since 1897. He was graduated from the College of Physicians and Surgeons in, New York in 1886 and from the Sheffield Scien- tific school at Yale in 1881. He leaves a widow who recently broke her arm by fall from the same horse which threw her husband. -e j
