CHICAGO REJECTS
WISCONSIN MILK.
Genoa Junction District Is Put Under
Quarantine by Two States-ls
Honeycombed with Disease.

KENOSHA, Wis, Jan. 2S.-tSpe-
cial. 1.-The Wisconsin board of health
this morning began an investigation of
the scarlet fever epidemic at Genoa
Junction, just west Of this city, and the
work is to be conducted by DR.. =. u.
Sutherland of GAINESVILLE, member OF
the board.
The Illinois board Of health has prof
fered it's aid in making the examination
of the fever infested districts. DR.. Suth-
erland and Dr. e. +. Baker of Jackson
Vile, ILL.,, met at Bassett this morning
and it will require week Of work to
get the districts properly quarantlned
and start the stamping out Of the dis
ease.
Schools and Churches Close.
DR.. Baker returned to Kenosha last
night after two days investigating trip
at Genoa Junction and Bassett, and he
declares the conditions there are alarm
ing. He declares that the place is honey
combed with the disease and that prac-
tically no steps have been taken to eradi-
cate it.
This morning, on the order of the
mayor of the city, all schools were
closed and all factories forced to stop
work. No churches were opened on
Sunday and there were no public relig-
iouS services.
There are ROW thirty-two we'll defined
cases of scarlet fever in Genoa village.
and it is claimed that there are seventy
five in the immediate neighborhood. Only
one death has resulted from the disease.
The state board of health of Illinois
has given orders that no more milk be
shipped from the great Borden plant I'M
til the disease is eradicated, and it is
possible that a large amount of con-
6pDSp6 milk hand will he
demned.
The people of the village, while desir-
ing the fullest investigation, are showing
a great deal Of spirit against the people
who informed the Illinois board of the
conditions at Genoa and it is feared that
they will meet with violence if their
names are made public.
kenosha is the largest city near the
epidemic but not a single case of scarlet
fever has been reported here in the last
two weeks.
DR.. Baker will investigate the great
milk plants at Elgin, Woodstock, Ma
rengo, Hebron, Lake Geneva and Garry
Station.
AS result of the investigation the
Borden plant at Genoa Junction has been
closed, and probably will not be reopened
until consent is given by the health au-
thorities of Chicago. Another Borden
plant at Bassett is being inspected.
Chicago Situation Brighter.

swept the city and suburbs during the

contagious cases during the day. This
is the smallest number of new cases

FOREIGN VIEWS OF THE CRUISE.

European comments upon the Pacific cruise
of the American feet are just about what
might have been expected Their general tone
is conspicuously friendly 10 this country.
though many of them differ widely from th"
prevailing American opinion regarding the pur-
pose of the cruise. Some of them arc markedly
characteristic. as those of Russia. which draw
a contrast between the condition of the Amer
lean feet and that which Russia sent on i
voyage Of similar length under Admiral Ro
iestvensky 1t was natural. too that the in
tensely practical German mind should, above all
Others appreciate the points which Captain
Mahan has been making about the undertaking
that it will be splendid practice for the feet
and that the practical working ont Of such Il
problem. which has hitherto been addressed
only theoretically. will reveal many things
which ought TO he known and which could
scarcely be learned in any other way.
The majority in numbers. though not. perhaps.
in weight of judgment, seem 10 persist in con
Meeting the cruise with crisis or tension. in
the relations of America and Japan. Possibly
this should not be wondered at. seeing how
agerly that idle notion has been put forth by
sensa tionalists in this country and seeing too.
how accustomed European nations are to re
gard every important military movement aS
being intended directly for aggression or for
defence Such views prevail in Europe q
great deal more than in Japan Itself. where
the situation is better understood and where
the cruise is regarded with pretty general equa-
nimity and with only such concern as so unique
sn adventure naturally provokes in intrlli-
gent observers But il is 3Creeab bic TO that
not a few of the best informed and most
thoughtful European authorities share what is
said to be the French official view-that Japan
cannot possibly find cause for taking umhra 60
at the cruise
Not the least welcome of all the observa ationS
is that Of THE London Daily Telegraph. which
sees in the cruise an extraordinary emphasZ-
ing of President Roosevelt's conviction of the
permanence of good relations between America
and Europe. las otherwise he would never
venture 70 send the whole available strength
''of the United States TO the uttermoSt parts of
"the EARTH As matter of fact our Atlantic
Coast is not left unprotected as some might
imagine. Yet il is indeed an extraordinary
thing especially from the European point of
view 10 send SO large part of the navy

has been supposed to be. That Great Britain.
for example would send her home and Chan
nel fleets to Canadian waters, leaving their
places empty for term of months. is simply
rrfhinkable. II may he that this manifestation
of faith in continued peace on the Atlantic will
impress the world no less than will the mani
festation of tremendous military potency on
the Pacific. The world may learn that Amer
lea can send its feet from one part of its own
waters TO another without either menace 20
any power or fear Of any. And that will he
