FLORIDA STANDS TORPEDO TEST.
Monitor Disabled, With Side Pierced
and List, at Fort Monroe.

Fort Monroe. Va.-Pierced with an
American Whitehead torpedo carry
ing charge of guncotton, which tore
a large hole in her side, the United
States monitor Florida now rests in
the drydock at the Norfolk Navy
Yard, victim of naval experiment
to test the vulnerability from torpedo
attack of watertight bulkheads. The
water in the vessels hold gives her
list of seventeen inches to starboard.
The test took place off Pine Beach,
near the Jamestown exposition
grounds, where the monitor was an
chored in fifteen feet of water. The
naval officials, while admitting that
the damage done to the vessel is seri-
Gus, declare that it is not vital and
say that the test is satisfactory.
Upon arrival at the navy yard the
monitor Florida was Immediately run
into the big stone drydock and the
water pumped out, in order that a
close examination of the damage done
by the torpedo could be definitely
seen. This examination showed that
clean hole, extending from the SUI
perstructure down the hull, had been
made, and that it was twenty feet in
length. The destructive power of the
torpedo was the marvel of the exam
lining officers. The injury internally
extended in about eight feet at the
centre, but varied from four to six
feet on the margins.

have been laid out thirteen separate
camps, one for each organization
These are sub-dfvided into camps for
each branch of the service, six regi-

The tents occupied by the enlisted

1t is estimated that there will be

the encampment. The regulars will
remain throughout the encampment,

DEAD OF REAL HYDROPR0BIA
Capt. Rabe Was Bitten by Straw
Cur Five Months Ago.
Commander of Quarantine Tug. New
York Harbor. Expired Ignorant of
Nature of His Ailment.

New York City.-Captain Edward
Rabe, thirty-one years old, command
er of the Quarantine tug James w
Wadsworth, died in the Smith Infirm-
airy, Staten Island. the surgeons de-
clare, of genuine hydrophobia. This
conclusion was reached not only bS
cause of the characteristic symptoms
but because the patient was absolute
ly ignorant of the nature of the all
ment with which he was afflicted.
The fatal termination could not
have been fastened either by fright
Or by auto-suggestion - causes that
we're advanced in the case of William
Marsh, the wealthy Brooklyn inven-
tor, who was informed that he was a
victim of rabies and that death was
Inevitable.
Captain Rabe believed himself to
be suffering from rheumatism and
had forgotten apparently the bite of
a dog five months ago. He never re-
ferred to it during his illness and he
was not undeceived as to what he be-
lieved his condition to be.
The case is believed to be UNIQUE
In this particular aspect, and if the
autopsy reveals the peculiar changes
in the texture of the brain cells that
indicate hydrophobia, physicians say
the question will be settled definitely
that canine madness is wholly physi-
cal and not the result of mental sug-
gestion. DR.. Charles Pearson, chief
of the hospital staff, was convinced
two days before the captains death
that he had to deal with a case of
rabies so far advanced that death
was almost certain within twenty
four hours. In this prognosis his as
sociates and an expert from Phia-
delphia agreed, but not the slightest
intimation was given either to the
sufferer or to his family, except to in
form the wife that her husband was
very sick man.
Captain RABIES legs began TO swell,
and he laughingly declared that he
must be getting old and rheumatic.
Liniments and hot cloths were ap-
piled, but the swelling was not re-
duced. Then the muscles of Captain
Rabies throat became rigid and ne
was unable to swallow. Later in
tu6 udy ue udu d NlOlSlI Culll anu Ills
right side became numb. The symp-
toms were those OF paralysis.
The progress of the malady was
rapid after the patient was admitted
to the hospital. He became delirious
and exhibited the signs of rabies. The
rigidity of the muscles of the throat
became more pronounced. The hos
pital staff agreed that the case was
beyond hope and that nothing could
be done except to relieve the periods
of delirious pain with opiates. Cap
tain Rabe died finally of exhaustion.
Before confirming his diagnosis DR..
Pearson had made careful inquiry
without exciting alarm and discovered
that Rabe had been bitten by stray
dog. but that the wound was so trivial
he did not have it cauterized. He
found also that about the same time
a dog had bitten a horse belonging to
DR.. Doty. The horse died and its
brain was sent to the laboratory Of
the Board of Health for examination.
The report was that the horse had
died of rabies 1t is believed that the
same dog that bit the man bit the
horse.

BREWERS SCHEME TO STOP
WAVE OF PROHIBITION
Meet in Milwaukee and Decide to
Work For "CIean Saloons"
WILL KEEP OUT OF POLITICS
Prohibitionists Send Sarcastic Mes.

DIR. Darlington Says Alcohol
Causes Heart Disease.

Milwaukee, Wis.-In view OF the
recent activities Of the Prohibition
lists, the recent outlawing OF the
traffic in spurious liquors in sever II
Southern States, and the cerious IL
jury to it in nearly every quarter of
the country, the convention of the
United States Brewers Association
which met here, is regarded as til !.
most important ever held by the or
ganiZation. The brewers, in execu-
tive session, formulated plans to m I.
and stem the tidal wave of prob i
ton. The attack on the anti-sa ION
forces will be in the main eddca-
tional, but will also include efforts
at regulation of the saloons by stat
ute, with the idea of taking them out
of politics. thereby elevating them so
that the liquor traffic will be recog-
nized as legitimate, respectable
business, and not as something out
side of social and ethical recognition.
The keynote of the movement,
characterized as one to overset intol-
erance and bigotry and to correct
Misrepresentation, was embodied in the
address made by julius Lehman.
president of the association. The
situation was also set forth in re-
port of the Board of Trustees of the
association.
Mr.. Lehman said: "It is of the
utmost Importance that the saloon
Keeper should respect the laws, but
The constant injustice melted out to
him under the guise of laws is a
force which tends to undermine this
respect.
The problem of the saloon is one
Of regulation by statutory authority;
Of administration by the trade. From
either standpoint it is a complex
problem which cannot be settled in
the offhand fashion that seems so
easy to superficial observers.
THE regulation of the saloon has
, been needlessly complicated by ex-
perimental legislation, party politics,
police corruption and inefflciency.
Fixed and arbitrary limitations i'm
posed on communities by the State
without regard to local conditions,
have only increased the difficulty.
TO keep the saloon out of politics
1t must first be taken out of politics;
and the best way to keep it in poll
tics is to provide by local option laws
for the constant agitation of the IL
cense question, with the element of
harassing uncertainty which this in
wolves. In recent years the saloon
! has been growing to be less and less
q political factor. To-day it threat
! ems to become the biggest political
issue in our history"
