FULL OF GERMS
New York Wonaa Who Has Given 1ypheal le Abssi
 2s Perssns
AUTHORITIES PUZZLED

New York, April LA puzzling case is under observation in the re- ception hospital in this city. The patient is q woman, a cook, apparent ly in perfect health, but who is de tained because she is suspected of having communicated typhoid to about 25 persons within the past six years.
 According to Dr Walter Bcnzel. the sanitary superintendent of Manilat- tan, the woman is literally living typhoid factory" She herself was stricken with tine disease about six years ago. It ran the usual course and she recovered.
 Now it is found that in all the time since she was declared cured of ty- phoid she has kept on nurturing and developing typhoid germs. Though herself immune. the germs which she has been developing have been a constant source of danger and conta- zion to all with whom she las come dn contact.
 ''The Lord only knows what we can do with the wOman,' said Dr Ben gel. We will keep her under obser- vation at the reception hospital. and we will certainly employ every means known to science to locate and de stroy the culture group of germs which persist in lingering in her ana tomy."
 Suspicion was attracted to the wo- man as the typhoid invariably ap- peared in families where she was em- ployed, and when she was taken to the hospital the suspicion was con firmed through the culture test.
 Dr Darlington. health commission CT, says there is considerable doubt as to the legal right of the health of ficials to detain the germ woman. She has violated no laws. Science. how ever, regards her as an unconscious menace t0 the community.

MAINE ICE CROP.
A Pretty Large One, But Not Rec.
 ord Breaker.

Gardener. Me, April 1.-Although definite figures of the Maine ice crop for the past winter have not been compiled, careful estimates place the amount of the harvest at between 100000 and S00,00O tons. Of this amount 100000 was harvested on the kennebec river, nearly 100000 on the Penobscot. and the balance honed or shipped from smaller streams and ponds.
 Contrary to the expectations at the opening of the season, the harvest of .ice in Maine was not a record break CT as the steady cold weather per mitted the cutting of bigger crop on the Hudson river than had been looked for and it was found unneces- sary to work the Maine ice fields to the greatest capacity. The largest crop ever taken in Maine was in 1890 when the total harvest by private individuals and companies amounted to 2,991,300 tons.

Chicago, April 1.-The situation in the controversy between the vest ern railroads and the trainmcn ard conductors to-day was not materially altered from yesterday. Chairman Knapp of the interstate commerce commission and Labor Commissioner Neiil were to participate In another series of conferences.
 The report of yesterday that a large number of the members of the two organisations are not In favor of . strike, although denied by the lead CTS of the trainmen and conductors, have led Messrs. Knapp and Ne!ll to believe that terms satisfactory to both sides may ultimately be reached.
 Chairman Knapp said today:
 "There is nothing that can say now, and I will not have anything to say until the matter has been defi- nftely arranged. or until anl ccr- tain that my efforts can produce no further results for good.

 Following this move of the rail- roads report was spread that lead ors of the. unions were preparing to make several concessions. It was said the demand for nine hour day may be abandoned and that the men also may. decida to take less than the 12 per cent advance in pay they have demanded.
 Grand Chief Garretson of the con- ductors did not confirm the hope. Grand Chief Morrissey of the train- men refused to declare himself any further than to assert that the ''situ- ltion had not changed materially"
