A NEW USE FOB CRIMINALS.
Baltimore Doctor Would Use Them as
Germ Culture Mediums.


Germ Culture Mediums.
Baltimore, March 1S.-Dr. J. H.
Burton Stevenson, a well known ex-
perimenter with antitoxins and an
ex-president of the Baltimore County
Medical association, after declaring
today that there should be only two
unpreventable causes Of death.
namely, old age and accident, de-
clared that all germ diseases are cur
able by sntitoxins, and suggested that
convicted criminals should be used as
antitoIn factories, if they were will
ing. Continuing, Or. Stevenson said:
s'Antitoxins should be produced
from human beings and not from ami
mails, and this should be brought
about by utilizing the criminals in
our State prisons. A law making
punishment for certain crimes op-
tional with the convicted-either i'm
prisonment or incubation with GER
tain disease germs-would solve the
problem for all time.
with the work in the hands Of
experienced men, a human-produced
antitoxin could be furnished which
would supply the medical profession
for all, or nearly all, the diseases
known to- be due to- germs. 1t would
not be dangerous to the subjects, Ell
ther. If this suggestion is too radical
for adoption in the present state OF
public opinion, much good can still
be done if the State and national
governments will cooperate with
the medical profession in the work

Perpetrating Horrible Ooutrages.
Bucharest, Roumania, March 22.-
The programme in Roumania is as
suming most serious proportions. The
aroused peasants are now blood mad
and every Jew who offers the slightest
resistance is instantly killed. Many
horrible outrages against women
have ben perpetrated. The Jews are
putting crosses in their windows to
save themselves.
The local authorities have lost the
power to control the situation. Alb
sentee landlordism and the sub-let-
ting of land in great tracts to rich
farmers are directly responsible for
the trouble. They leased it to Chris
tians who sublet it to the peasants.
The peasants have been convinced
that the land would be cheaper If the
Jews were driven out.

was directed are recovering from

FOUR SPRINGFIELD
RIFLES IDENTIFIED
Ordnance Experts Find -Four Belonging
to Company B that Were Fired in
Brownsville Raid.

A very strong proof that at least
four of the army Springfield rifles
which were in the possession of
battalion of the 18th Infantry I'M
der Penrose's command at Fort
Brown has been brought out before
the senate investigating committee,
as shown by the following press
dispatch from Washington:
Reports of experts of the Ord
nance Department of the army who
examined the thirty-three dis
charged shells picked up in the
streets of Brownsville on the morn
ing following the ARRAY were laid
before the Senate Committee on
Military Affairs today by the Off
GERS who examined the shells at
the Springfield arsenal under glass
and microscope. The conclusion
of the War Department, expressed
in letter to Chairman Warren
from Secretary Taft, which was
presented by Lieutenant Hawkins
of the Ordnance Department, is
that the shells were discharged
from Springfield rifles which were
in the hands of members of Com
pany B, one of the discharged
companies of the Twentyffth In
fantry.
Secretary Taft's letter says the
shells were examined by Lieuten-
ant Hawkins and G. A. Spencer,
expert inspector of gauges used in
the manufacture of muskets at
the Springfield arsenal.
The results were given by Sec
rotary Taft in part as follows:
That the marks on eleven of
the shells picked up at Brownsville
correspond exactly with the marks
of the cartridges discharged as ex-
periments by them from one of the
guns of Company B.
That the marks on eleven of
the shells correspond exactly with
the marks on the cartridges dis
charged by them from another of
Company BIS guns.
That the marks on eight more
of the shells correspond exactly
with the marks on the cartridges
discharged by them from a third
gun of Company B.
That the marks on the re-
naming three of the shells CORE
spond with the marks on the cart
ridges discharged by a fourth gun
of Company B, but that in this
fourth case, probably due to the
fact that the cartridge had failed
of discharge in another rifle, they
bore double marks, and so made
the Identification with the fourth
rife shell less certain
Lieutenant Hawkins and In
spector- Spooner say that their ex-
aminations proved beyond reason
able, doubt that three groups of
shells-eleven eleven and eight
were discharged from three spe-
officially numbered guns of Com
pany B, and that in all probability
the fourth group of three shells
was discharged from another gun
of the same company.

THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS DAMAGE To
BRIDGES AND FARMS.

A terrific thunder shower passed over
North Andover late Wednesday after
noon, and the flood of water did damage
to the amount of thousands of dollars.
A correspondent of the Lewiston Journal
thus describes it:
The thunder was something fierce and
the play of the lightning was something
never to be forgotten. Two buildings
were struck as far as reported but trees
in all directions were shattered.
At about 5 80 p. NJ, cloud burst upon
Sawyer Notch so-called, and this water
poured down the mountain at fearful
rate carrying huge rocks weighing tons,
and with deafening roar submerging
the valley.
In less than thirty minutes the water
rose ten feet, carrying away everything
in its path. Eight bridges have been
swept away and hundreds of acres of
land and crops injured. Families living
on the low land were obliged to take to
the upper story, and some were convey
ed to their houses in boats. No fatali-
ties yet are reported, but the damage can
hardly be estimated at this time; it will
reach thousands of dollars.
The mill at Damon's was expected to
90 down every moment. 1t was cleared
of everything movable, the water en-
tirely surrounding it. It's sickening
sight to see the many acres of growing
crops and fine gardens swept away. The
water rose three feet higher than in the
great freShet of so.
