Koch Theory Gets Bump
at Closed Door Meetinu

when it was announced yesterday that
a secret meeting of some of the promi-
nent officials of the International congress
on tuberculosis would be held in the Will
iafd Hotel at noon yesterday, no doubt
the delegates thought it would be really
secret. but under the influence of the good
cheer at the smoker given by the District
committee last night a few facts oozed
out here and there. Putting them all to-
sether, they make a good story and give
a line on why DR.. Koch takes the stand
that bovine tuberculosis is not so dan
gerous 10 the human family.
No official statement was given out con-
corning the meeting, as was expected,
but every one talked and the much-shun-
ned newspaper men just wallowed in the
news The idea that they gathered is
that the German government stands be-

fiuence of this congress will cause more

work of the canal in that identical place
is being prosecuted on an infinitely larger

The Progress of Science.
At this moment in the middle of the
continent of Africa there is fatal and
peculiar disease the sleeping sickness-a
disease which if it had been known to
our ancestors in the middle ages would
have been spoken of as the black death.
as a scourge sent from God. possibly
something connected with comet We
know now it is due to the carrying of a
small deadly blood parasite by IA species
Of biting fly, there being this curious
genus of fly in Africa one form of which,
although harmless to man and wild ami
mails conveys by its biting IA fatal infec-
ton into all animals domesticated for
mans use.
1T was responsible for the spread of
this terrible disease, which in one year
and region, killed 2OO.0O0 out of 100000
finitely surprising that of any modern
war The chance to control that disease
lies in the work of just such men as are
here assembled. You who have come
here to combat what. on the whole. is
the most terrible scourge of all the peo-
pie throughout the world But few
years ago hardly an intelligent effort was
made or could be made to war against
this peculiarly deadly enemy of the race.
Good Work Done in Panama
The mama Panama was a by-word for
fatal disease, but it has now become we'll
nigh sanatorium and it has become SO
because of the investigation of mon which
enabled us to find the real causes of Ger
tain diseases, especially, yellow fever and
malarial fever, and to take measures to
overcome them. The older doctors here
when they We're medical students would
have treated the suggestion of regarding
mosquitoes as the prime source of a
disease like that as a subject for mirth.

II cannot deny myself the privilege Of

STOCKS COLLAPSE WITH GREAT VIOLENCE Mixed Opinion on Street As to Sudden Change of
 Policy.

NEW YORK, May 23-Prices of stocks collapsed with great violence during today's short session of the market. The outpouring of stocks was heavy in some quarters, but the striking feature was the disappear ance Of all trace of the support which has been present through all stages of the advance and the period of di- gestion of profits.
 There were mixed opinions on the street as to the motives for this sud den change Of policy. The filing of the suit by the government against the New Haven railroad for violation of the antitrust law was much dwelt upon as belying the assumption that truce had been arranged between the administration and corporations and a tacit agreement reached for the softening of the rigors of prosecu- ton against the railroad corporations. Others believe the collapse represent ed the normal continuation of a move ment which has been under suspicion of artificial and manipulative origin from outside sources from the be- ginning.
