ALL HERDS MUST Be TESTED
Commissioners VIII Apply Tuber-
culin Examination ImpartiaIly.
Omeials Deny Request of Farmers,
However, that Enforcement of
New Regulation be Delayed.

The proposed regulation Tor the appiica-
ton Of the tubeTculiH test 10 cattle was
the subject Of conference yesterday be-
tween Commissioner Macfarland. At
tOrneys Blair Lee. Of Maryland, and
Walton Moore, Of Virginia, representa-
tives Of the Maryland and Virginia milk
producers; DR.. ". c. Woodward, health
officer; E. H Thomas. corporation coun-
sci, and a delegation Of farmers.
Objection was made 10 the tuberculiu
test by Messrs. Lee and Moore upon the
ground that It is not infaliibie and also
that II il is found under the test that .
per cent Of the herds should be con-
demned, II would produce a serious de-
crease in the milk supply and a conse-
quent rise in price. II the tuberculin test
were infallibie, it was stated, IL would be
adopted by the farmers without regula-
ton, but IN the event that such regula-
tons was 10 be applied they desired that
81 be so framed as 10 apply to all herds
alike. including those in New York and
Pennsylvania. from which a small per-
centage Of the milk supply of the Dis
trict Is derived.
A long delay in the adoption OF the
proposed regulation. and. If possible, a
reference Of the whole matter to Congress
was suggested. In reply Commissioner
Mcfarland said he did not believe this
possible. as Congress had given the Com
missiOners power 70 act. and upon them
rested thes responsibility. He assured
them. however, that the regulation would
undoubtedly be framed so as 20 affect
al herds, far and near, from which comes
the milk for consumption IN the District.
With regard to possible compensation for
cattle killed because Of tuberculosis, the
Commissioners stated that 1t was a ques-
ton 10 be decided by Congress, and that
all the Commissioners can do IS to report
the facts.
The commission 10 consider and report
upon the local milk supply will meet in
the board ROOM Of the District building
az o'clock this afternoon. The report
Of the committee on the sanitary reguIa-
tons will probably be presented.

COMPLAINS OF CARS SPEED.

g ;. Albert Points Out Dangerous
Practice at Fourteenth street.
The attention of the Commissioners is
called by c, S. Albert, Of the Washing
ton bureau of the New York World, 70
what he terms the reckless manner in
which the cars of the Capital Traction
Company are run down the Fourteenth
street hill. Mount Pleasant
1t IS a matter OF almost daily occur
renee" says Mr.. Albert, that cars are
dropped down this hill at the rate of
twenty or twenty-five miles an hour, run
ming past waiting passengers at street
crossings. and greatly endangering life.
because those waiting attempt to board
the cars, supposing they will slow down
and stop. This practice Of the Capital
Traction Company TO run trains at a high
and dangerous rate Of speed down Four
teenth street hill seems to be increasing.
I am not complaining of the fact that
they do not stop for passengers, but
understand there is a regulation limiting
the rate of speed at which cars may be
run. II is becoming seIf-evident that this
regulation should be enforced for the pro-
lection Of life, II nothing else"
Maj. Sylvester, TO whom the matter was
referred, said that he recently complained
to the superintendent Of this road as TO
the cars not stopping at crossings, and
gave strict instructions to bring motor
men into court who do not comply with
the law. The major states that while
the enforcement of the regulations on
Fourteenth street must be made at the
expense Of other localities, from which
policemen must be taken, every effort
