RIVAL FOR RADIUM

London-A rival to radium has been
discovered at the San Guillano mineral
springs, in Italy.
Professor Battelli of Pisa uniyer-
sity, who has announced the discovery
in a London paper, says it is a "gas,
which, when condensed, gives off a
substance whose active emanations
are comparable with those of radium"
Sir William Ramsay, the English
scientist, who knows all about radium,
says:
ut is probable that the substance
is radio-thoraum. A young Italian sci
enlist named Blanc stated a short
while ago that he had found in min
eral water traces of radio-thoraum.
Battelli's discovery is almost certain
to be this"

federal indictment against them alleg-

the indictments charging the railway

tons of the Elkins anti-rebating act.
Judge Holt holds that the recent
amendment made by congress fixing
Imprisonment for violations of the FL
kins act in addition to the fine pre-

therefore, be held to include rebating
