William AIIinger, 812 South
Seventh Street, Has Con-
tracted the Disease.
PROBABLY IN THE GAS BELT
AND IT'S NOT PROBABLE THAT
ANY OTHER CASES WILL DE-
vELOP FROM THIS.

A fully developed case of smallpox
has gust been reported to DIR. Charles
s. Bond, city health officer.
The case is in the home of William
Allinger, S12 South Seventh street, he
being the one afflicted. The disease
was very likely contracted short
time ago when Mr.. ADinger with his
family went on q visit to Muncie. An
derson and several other cities in the
gas belt. for it is known that small
pox cases are quite plentiful In Ell
wood, Anderson and Muncie.
The first of the week Mr.. Allinger
became afflicted with form of rash.
but 1t was not considered OF any con-
sequence until he became quite sick,
and DR.. w. W. Zimmerman was call.
ed. DR.. Zimmerman at once suspect
Immediately took precautionary meas,
ures until Thursday when he became
convinced of his diagnosis. The case
was reported to DR.. Bond and Thurs
day evening a strict quarantine was
placed at the Allinger home and three
other residences of that neighborhood
where persons had been exposed A
card was subsequently placed on the
house occupied by the Allingers and
every effort is being made to guard
against any spread of the contagion
Mr.. Allinger is a mechanic but as
he was not working during the slack
time, none of his fellow employees has
been exposed. The other members ot
the family, consisting of Mrs. AIin
ger. and a little daughter, were with
Mr.. Allinger on the visit but strange
to say neither of them has shown any
signs Of having contracted the dis
ease. All persons known to Aave
! exposed TO the disease have been vac
cinated and it is the belief Of both
| DR.. Zimmerman and Or. Bond that the
case is isolated and that there is nc
probability that any other cases will
develop.
! DIR. Bond stated Saturday night that
the cooperation of the public is solic
/ tied in the matter and that a genera
vaccination is the very best precau
tionary measure the public can pur
sue.

Mr.. BRYAN SAID THAT AS YET
NO PLAN HAS BEEN MADE TO

URE TO CONGRESS.

Washington, Nov. 23- Pre- esideut
Roosevelt and W. j. Bryan were in
conference for half an hour in The
Presidents private office at the White
House today.

on the telephone and asked when the
President would receive callers, and
on being informed. came simply to
pay my respects to the President"
Mr.. Bryan was not willing to dis
cuss the details of his interview, but
was free to add details to the finan-
cial plan which he proposed a few
days ago. In reviewing every meas
ure Of relief which had come to his
notice, Mr. Bryan said that nothing
seemed to be intended to meet the sit
uation as effectively and at the same
time as simply as the plan he had sug-
gested. This plan. he said, was sim
ply to have the Government insure de
positors in national banks against
loss by reason of the failure of the
! banks.

1t was not intended, he said, tC
have the Government collect a funC
for this purpose, to be kept on hand
Whenever a national bank should be
required to pay its depositOrs it would
be the duty of the Government tt
make an assessment on all nationa
banks to meet the amount of loss by
reason of the failure. This assess
ment, Mr.. Bryan said, would be in
| fiinitesimal.
Opposition to this plan, Mr. Bryan
conceded. might be made by Stat,
banks, which would be left out of tn,
plan. The answer to this, he said
] was that the States should individual
ly take up the same scheme and stan,
as a guarantor against loss to depos
itors in State banks.
Mr.. Bryan said as yet no plan ha,
been made to have his relief measure
presented in Congress. However, h
felt very enthusiastic over the pros
pect of its ultimate success.

All the Persons Engaged Are
Hopeful That the Present
Week Will See the End of
This Now Famous Case.
HEARING TO BE RESUMED
ON MONDAY MORNING.
Prosecution viii Undertake to
Show That the Defendant
Was Not Only Responsible,
But Acts Were Deliberate.

Washington, Nov. 23.-The attorneys
very much engaged today in preparing
for what all of them hope will be the
last week of the famous murder trial.
The case will be resumed next Monday,
and the defense will almost immediate
ly enter upon the presentation of the
Indications of insanity on the part
of their client to the experts who have
been summoned to pass upon the mat
ter in her behalf.
They were today occupied i'll put
ting the finishing touches on the hy-
pothetical question which they will
propounu to these experts and will
have it in the best possible shape when
court convenes Monday. The mere
reading of this question, containing as
it docs over 1900 words, probably
will consume two hours of time. 1t
will be read to the experts. who, after
listening carefully. VIII be expected TO
render their opinions rs to the mental
condition of Mrs. Bradley when she
fired the fatal shot at ex-senator
Brown.
The question will be in effect a re-
view of the entire defense in the case.
1t will discuss in detail much of the
testimony and after grouping all Of
the facts indicating mental alteration
and going to show eccentricity, insan-
ity or peculiar physical condition on
the part of ancestors, will then try TO
force the conclusion that Mrs. Brad
ley was not responsible at the time
of the tragedy.
Purpose Of Prosecution.
On the other hand the prosecution
will undertake to combat all these con,
tentions and to show that the defend
ant was not only responsible when =
fired the shot, but that all of her az.
were deliberate and that she came tt
Washington with the avowed purpose
OF either compelling Senator Brown to
marry her or Of killing him. TIL,

pear in Mrs. Bradley's behalf. but viii
introduce mental experts of their Owl
to contradict the others.
They also will present testimony i,

by the defense when they enter upol
