SAYS HE NEVER USED 1T
Finding of Pass Issued to John w
Kern Brinus Out Statement


Connersville, Ind, Sept. 30.-The
finding of a little red leather note
book, with the name of John w.
Kern" stamped in gilt on it's cover,
within it a pass over the Big Four
railroad issued to John w. Kern and
good till Dec. 81, 1908, following the
Democratic vice presidential nom
inee's visit to the Connersville free
fair, has brought from Bryan's run
ming mate the admission that he did
have Big Four pass.
The tale of the find, accompanied
by an assertion that several other Big
Four passes were in the Kern note
book when it was seen by reporter,
has awakened much interest here.
In Mansfield, O., at the Democratic
state campaign opening, Mr.. Kern
said he did not know he had lost a
pass, but said the Big Four, for which
he had appeared as counsel in several
damage suits, had sent him pass to
take him to trial at Winchester Ind.
He had not had occasion to use the
pass, he said, and did not know he
had lost it. If it was an annual pass
he did not know It,

Professor Irving Fisher Of Yale Gre
ates Sensation by Statements Made
In Address Before International Con-
eress on TubercuIosis-YearIy Cost
to the Country From Deaths by Con-
sumption Placed at $1,000, 100000.
Washington, Sept. 30.-That 5,000,-
900 people now living in the United
States are doomed to fill consump-
ttves' graves unless something is done
to prevent it was the startling declara-
ton of Professor Irving Fisher of Yale
in an address on "The Cost of Tuber-
culosis' before the International COLI
gress on tuberculosis. Professor Fish
er's address, which was the feature of
the day, created a sensation among
the hundreds who listenedrto his state
ments. d
Professor Fisher further declared
that the $4,000 persons who die of
consumption annually in this country
cost in hard cash, over 100000, 900
year.
In section 1, in which it is expected
the most of the scientific discussions
and discoveries will develop, there was
a discussion of great Importance to
the congress when Professor Almett
of Lille, France, director of the Pas
teur institution, advanced the theory
that tubercule baccilli are taken into
the system by swallowing. Hereto
fore inhalation has been considered
the principal method of contracting
consumption. Infection by inhalation
was warmly defended by Professor
Tendeloo of Holland.
Past Assistant Surgeon Victor G..
Heifer of the United States public
health and marine hospital service
and director of health of the Philip
pine islands read an interesting paper
In which he asserted that in tropical
countries, where tuberculosis and
hook worm disease prevail, elimina-
t1on of the hook worm produced better
results in diminishing the mortality
from tuberculosis than any other meas
ure that has yet been tried on a large
scale.

ABOUT A SCORE OF
BUILDINGS BURNED
Masked Men Fire Many Negro
Schools and Churches.

Albany, Ca, Sept. 30.-Every negro
church, schoolhouse and lodgeroom in
ar area of ten square miles, located
in Baker, Early and Calhoun coun-
ties, was burned by band of masked
riders. About twenty buildings were
burned and a reign of terror has been
created by the negroes of that sec
tfon.
The night riders left notices warn
ing the negroes that unless they
mended their ways they themselves
would be given taste of fire.
Among the burned buildings were
several handsome churches, which
had recently been erected by the bet
ter class Of negroes.
The cause of the outrage is not def
nitely known, although it is said that
a negro recently attempted to assault
prominent woman. The negro was
lynched at the time, but a bitter feel
ing existed because of the assault. -

Higgins, vice president and general

fears that Theodore Roosevelt, Jr.,

him a weekly salary of S. or Sc. This

JAP RETRENCHMENT PLANS
| Projected Enterprises Will Be De.
layed but Not Abandoned.

Kioto, Sept. 30.-Postponement of
government undertakings involving
the expenditure of $1OO,000,000, in &C.
cordance with the policy recently an
nounced by Premier Katsura, does not
mean that the government has ceased
activity in this direction. 1t is au-
thoritatively stated that the funda-
mental principle of the postponement
consists in so arranging the funds for
the projected enterprises that they
may be carried out without retrench-
ment, but by deferring their compile
ton three or four years. In recent
years there has developed a consider
able growth of the annual surplus,
which it is expected the government
will hereafter utilize in Developments
of q peaceful character.
