That Andrew C. Fields has told or is will
ing to tell all he knows about the payment
OF money to legislators. who got II and who
authorized the payments, was the most In
teresting disclosure yesterday. 1t Is known
that District Attorney Jerome has In ais
possession evidence to show that governors
legislators and state superintendent OF In
sErance all over the country got money
from the Mutual. Corroborated by the tes-
tlmony of Lawrence and Rogers as to the
money that was paid to Fields for leg1sla-
tive and other purposes through the Law
renee Company, the testimony of Fields Is
expected to cause a sensation.
The grand jury has not heard the whole
OF Fields story. He was only before the
grand jury for a brief session, and in that
time he could not have told all the details
OF his operations as legislative agent. It
was pointed out yesterday that there Is a
very good reason why 1t would have been
unwise for Fields to tell the whole story
when he is to be witness. Should any
official of the Mutual who is indicted have
applied for and got leave to inspect the
minutes of the grand jury then Fields
whole story would have been known. When
he tells 1t on the stand the defendant Will
be In the dark and unprepared.
There was some surprise that District At
torney Jerome has promised Immunity to
so many persons involved in the affairs OF
the Mutual. 1t is explained. however. that
without their testimony IL would be impos-
sible to convict any of the officials OF the
company. Furthermore, II they were in
dicted their testimony would not be 80 val
liable as IL they testified without any charge
against them.

The sailors of the battleship and armored
cruiser squadrons and the torpedo boat
fotillas of the Atlantic fleet declare that
when they are assembled in New England
waters few weeks hence for the annual
summer maneuvers they will not eat canned
meat. This stand is taken because of the
packing house revelations.
Under the regulations canned meat must
be served up at least three times a week

no reason to believe that that regulation

not quite sure whether the final catas-

There can be no doubt that the world

proof positive. and all that is required to

The chancellories OF Europe will no doubt
be interested to learn that an entire ad-

Passages in Report.
The report contained these passages:
The following are .the most important
facts as bearing directly upon the cause of
the disease Cdiphtherfa): Cd Sand trays and
wooden pencils are being used in the In
fants' department OF the Festiniog schools:
CD these are used exclusively In the
babies class rooms; (3) the wooden pencils
and lead pencils used in the school bear
.undoubtod marks of teeth; ca though the
majority cases are not from the infants
school, yet the three fatal cases were chill
dren from this department: co. the three
fatal cases were from the babies class of
the infants school; 90 sand trays and
wooden pencils were exclusively used in the
babies class of the infants school; cd
the last fatal case Ca boy OF six years of
age) was In the school on the Goth of the
month, and he died on the 25th from heart
failure as complicating malignant form of
diphtheria; f9 this little boy in all proba-
bility tended school on the Goth, he at the
time suffering from diphtheFia."
1t Is worth noting. also. that the medical
officer recommended that the whole school
should be fumigated and thoroughly dis
infected and the walls and desks cleaned.
and that the county education committee
should have the sand trays and wooden
pencils removed" The medical officer also
thought that there were too many maps
and diagrams. plates and papers left per-
manently on the wall, allowing disease
germs to propagate"
