Travellers in
CONVENTION

DEMAND STEEL RAILWAY CARS
Milwaukee, Wis, June PA de-
mand for the use Of steel fre-prOof
cars on all railroads in the United
States Is one Of the most important
matters to be taken up by the ma
tional convention Of the Travellers
Protective Association Of America,
Theatre. It is estimated that nearly
5000 drummers, with their wives and
friends, are in the city and the total
attendance during the week is ex-
pected to reach 5000. Numerous sub
iects Of importance to travelling men
will be considered.
Following the inaugural session this
morning, there will be memorial
service and business session this
afternoon and an informal reception
at the Planldnton house this evening
Aside from the business meetings,
there will be scores Of entertainments
many Of which will be conducted by
the big brewing concerns Of Milwau-
kee. The final sessions will be held
Friday.
The demand for steel cars will be
made in earnest and arrangements
will be completed for carrying on the
propaganda in congress and before al
the state legislatures. It is urged BY
the travelling men that laws requir
ing a greater protection for life ant
limb are of far greater Importance
than reduction of rates.
It has been calculated that the larg
est percentage Of loss Of life and liml
on railroads is due to the telescopinl
and burning of cars in train wrecks
which renders it impossible to releas'
the victims before 1t is too late t
save their lives.

Lancehead Removed in
Dangerous Operation to
Supply for Second Time III
80 Years Marvellous Cura-
tive for Insanity.

Before men well-known in the
medical profession and few other
persons assembled in the reptile
house of the Bronx Zoo yesterday
morning. says the New York World,
Keeper Snyder grasped d lancehead
viper, the most deadly CT all known
reptiles. just back Of the jaws and
extracted the poisonous serum from
the snakes fangs The marvellous
operation gave TO science a renewed
supply of a serum which is invaluable
as a remedy in the treatment of in
sanity and several forms of nervous
and mental Affections II is the first
time this operation has ever been
performed in this country and the
second time it has ever been per-
formed.
The lancehead viper is found only
| in Brazil, near the upper waters or
the Amazon 1t was brought to this
country last week by Mr.. Fox of
Boericke & RunyOn, manufacturing
chemists. at No. II West FOrty-sec-
Ond street, for the sole purpose Of re-
pleniShinp the supply of the serum,
which is exceedingly rare. The tech
meal term for the venom is "lachesis, :
derived from the name of the snake,
Iachesis trigenocephalus-
Keeper Snyder reached into the
compartment containing the lance
head with a long wire, caught up the
snake with this and bore it into the
operating room.
Knew the Snakes Fear.
Everybody except the attendants
made a move to disappear, for if the
snake had wished to it could have
Squiremd off the wire; but Snyder al
Iayed the fears of the spectators
when he said that the reptile would
balance itself on the wire, as it fear
ed falling to the ground.
He laid it on the operating table,
and Immediately it thrust forth its
fangs. Quick as a fash Snyder pin
ned its neck down to the table with a
cane, and while he grabbed the rep

thumb and forefinger DIR. Dittmars,

INQUEST REVEALS
 NOTHING NEW
Effort to Find Friends and Relatives of Henry Lauber
 So Far Fail.

Nothing new was learned at the ccroner's inquest last nigat concern ing the connections and antecedents of Henry I.auber, the miner who met his death Wednesday afternoon in the Spray mine. A letter was found in his effects from Fred Aud, of Victor Colo. It was, however, nothing more than a friendly letter and containeu, nothing that would clear the mystery of whom and where his relatives re side.
 Dr. N. c. Bledsoe, who made the post mcrtem examination exhibited a broken vertabrae which showed be- yond all question that it was the fall that caused his death. Had he fallen in any other possible position he would scarcely have been hurt. As 1t was his death was instantaneous, and it is most probable that he never nov ed an inch from the exact position which his body occupied the moment his neck struck the track.
 Martin Gregory, the electrician, who was first to find the. dead body, stated that Lauber had been workins on truck when last-seen. When he returned in the drift the man WAS dead. The probability is that in his work ne missed his footing accidental ly and the fall, though short, proveo fatal
 J. J. Horace, who knew the dead man slightly. stated that he believed the man came from New York and that he was a German. Whethel he has any relatives in this country is a question.
 Two dollars and half is all of the money found on the person of Ine dead man. Whether he had bauk account is not yet known, but. will be investigated today by Judge Hogan.
 The cornorer jury's verdict reads: We, the jury, find that the deceaseo came to his death by broken neck, death accidental"

National Organization To Com bat Loan Shark Evils Has Been Decided As Necessary To Cope With Problem.

CHICAGO, Dec. 17.--A national or ganization to fight the loan shark evils, particularly the salary loan" extortion, has been decided upon aa, 8 necessity to successfully cope with the different problems produced by varying state laws and conditions. NJ. B. Wellington of the Legal Aid So- c'ety of Chicago has sent out lettess to all the larger cities where organ izations exist, asking for data upon the amount of capital employed, the
 forms of notes, confessed judgments'' and salary assignments used and the rate of interest at which small chat. tel loans can be made with reasonapie profit. The total amount of capital of loan shark offices in the United States is put at S25,000,O00, of whIcn sum it is known that $3,500,000 Is employed by the 125 offices in Chi cago, sum larger than that empIqy- ed in New York, according to figures of recent report paid for by the Rus sel Sage Foundation" or in any city in the United States. The rates charged for small loans in New York are the h'ghest-the actual cost ol short time loans, when extra fees, brokerage" protest fees" and un- just collection charges" are added. being in many cases as high as 17Jl per cent per annum. No philan- thropy has yet taken up in the west the investigation of this subject thor oughly, to point the practical means to save people who must borrow from such extort'o ons and to provide a fu- man substitute. A bill will soon be submitted to the Illinois legislature to limit the rate charged to per cent month, instead of 10 to 20 per cent now charged. Authorities have found in Illinois that though the loan usurer was an outlaw, his right to in terest above the legal per cent can not be contested if once paid, although it frequently amounts to more than
 the principal originally borrowed.
 The loans are found to average about $50

DENN MINE ID
 RESUME IN THE
 NEAR FUTURE
Martin Pattison Will Give Full Examination of Property and Decide Later When To Begin Work.


 Martin Pattison. of Duluth. presi dent or the Denn-Arizona Mining com pany. arrived in Bisbee from Mime sota yesterday.
 When questioned by a Review rep resensative concerning the future or the Denn. Mr. Pattison said that al though until he had completed an ex- animation ef the property, which will osgfn today, he could make no definite statement concerning the details of the future work to be done on the mine, there was no doubt as to the re- sumption of development work in lne near future.
 Asked about the general conditions prevailing in the northern country, he said they were extraordinarily good, considering the amount of time that has elapsed since the financial slump that affected the country Concern ing the forest fires in that region Mir. Pattison informed the Review that they were greatly exaggerated, the loss of timber in the Minnesota for ests being of lesser extent than gen orally reported, but that the destruc- ton of property and life in the north ern portion of the lower peninsular of Michigan were severe. In one in rsStance J trainload of passengers was lost. The engineer endeayored to drive his train through the fire, but the rails spread and imprisoned the train and passengers between two flaming piles of lumber, with the re suit that nearly ali perished.
 NIT. Patison will remain here until all arrangements for the resumption Of work at the Denn have been consum- mated; probably for a month.
