All Possible Prec cautions-Anti-
Toxine Being Used.

Superintendent Clinton J. Crandall,
Of the U. S. Indian Training School,
has taken active and prompt steps for
the stamping out Of diphtheria,
which dread disease has appeared in
the San Juan Pueblo, forty-five miles
north of this city. Several cases oc-
Cured during the past week and three
or four deaths have been the conse-
quence, the latter being of Indian
children. DR.. NJ. =. Murphy, of Espa-
nola, who is the medical officer in
charge, Is using anti-toxine with good
results. The houses of the Indians
are being treated with fermalhdyde
gases and have been thoroughly disin-
fected Several of the older Indians
object to this, but Dr. Murphy, un-
der instructions from Superintendent
Crandall paid no heed to the objec-
tions and is going ahead with the dis
infection. The inhabitants of the
town have been quarantined by In
dian police and no egress ad ingress

SESSION SANTA FE
BOARD OF TRADE
Chicago Tribune Proposition Turned
0own-To Print Pamphlet on
City.

The Santa Fe Board of Trade held
an interesting meeting last evening
at the Office of the Santa Fe Light
and Water Company. Hon. l.. Brad
ford Prince presided and w. c..
Schnepple was at his post as secre-
tary. After the usual routine bust
ness the appointment Of representa-.
tives to the mississippi Con-
gress was taken up and Frank Owen
AMI j. II. Walker were elected as the
delegates from Santa Fe.
A representative of the Chicago
Tribune was introduced and made a
proposition for an illustrated article
in that paper on several New Mexico
towns which would contribute to the
expense. After some discussion it
was concluded that the finances did
not warrant the expenditure involved
at this time.
A. H. Brodhead made a very inter
esting report on the subject OF tree
planting In the streets, referring to
the good work already done, AMI eX-
planning the plans for the future. The
committee is embarrassed just now
because some OF the property owners
on Don Casper Avenue have not yet
paid their proportion of the expense
Of planting the trees along that thor
olghfare last spring.
The subject of printing a small IL
Illustrated pamphlet Of Santa Fe for
general distribution wis discussed and
the idea received with much favor.
Finally Captain Fred Muller was ap-
pointed a committee with power to
add other members and push the work
forward. 1t was realized that much
could be done in advertising the city.
and especially in pointing out its ai-
vantages as a health resort, by means
of a little brochure we'll written and
nicely illustrated. The pictures to
be used will depict the beautiful
mountain scenery and show the num-
erous buildings of historic interest.
President Prince brought up the
subject of the preservation of the Ga
rita and a number of the members ex-
pressed their strong interest in saw
ing this historic building before it is
too late. The 'Gadta has already suf.
fered great damage and it is thought
that nothing will be left of it by
spring unless some protection is af-
forded. Unfortunately the owner
takes no interest in the matter and
permits it to so to ruin without an
effort to protect it. The Board OF
Trade some time ago appointed a
committee but nothing has been ac.
complished to date. Samuel G. Cart
wright was added to this committee
with instructions to convene his col
leagues and devise means to protect
this interesting structure, which is
the only Spanish fortification still ex
isting in the United States.
The subject of the great delay in
receiving freight here over the rail.
roads was considered and the discus
sion resulted in the appointment OF
committee consisting of Messrs
Kaune, Owen and H. B. Cartwright
to remedy this evil.

There will be no war between the
United States and China" said Major
General Henry S. Corbir, upon his
arrival from the orient on the steam
er Korea Friday" So far as have
been able to observe, the reported
disturbances in China have been gross
ly exaggerated, and conditions are
not nearly so alarming as one would
be led to suppose from reports that
have been published abroad through
out the western world.
THAT there have been disturbances
is quite true, but / do not think they
will break the peace of China and the
United States or any other nation.
''The feeling against Americans in
China does not exceed that entertain
ed toward all other foreigners, and
as understand the situation the en-
tire anti-foreign feeling is due in a
large measure to the exploitation ol
business enterprises which the Chin
csc feel sure should be controlled by
their own people. There is feeling
against those who have in various
ways obtained through scheming and
corrupt official franchises and con
cssions, abrogated and vested in their
own people.
