| GREAT BATTLE
WITH WHITE PLAGUE
tuberculosis Crusade to Omen in
Washington.
ALL NATIONS WILL Be REPRESENTED.
Scientists, Physicians and Laymen
From the Ends Of the Earth Will
Be in Attendance at the Internation-
al Conference, the First Meeting of
Which Was Held Monday.

Washington. D. G. Especially For
the next three weeks the national
capital will be the scene of such a
crusade as never before has been
witnessed against humanitys worst
foe-the white plague. 1t will be
an educational campaign world wide
in it's scope, the ultimate object of
which Is to eradicate, If possible,
from the ends of the earth disease
which, statistical experts declare, cut
short the lives of from one-tenth to
one-eighth of the civilized population.
Such distinguished foreigners as
Drs. Robert Koch, of Berlin; Bang, of
Copenhagen; A. Calmette. of Lille.
France; N. Theodore Tendeloo. of
Leyden; R. w. Philip, of Edinburgh;
G. Won Pirquet, of Vienna; G. Sims
Woodhead, of Cambridge; Lydia
Rabinowitsch, of Berlin; Camilo CAL
LEILA, of Vallaolid. Spain; T. Ishigami.
of Osaka. Japan, and noted American
physicians and scientists and others
who have devoted their lives in an
effort to solve this problem will ac-
lively participate.
The campaign will be carried on
by the coming international Congress
on tuberculosis on it's sixth annual
session, which will meet in the United
States for the first time at the New
National Museum in this city. This
congress, which might fittingly be
called a real worlds congress on tu-
berculosis, will mark an epoch in the
anti-tuberculosis movement in this
country. Such distinguished gath
ering probably will not meet again
in this country for many years. for
the honor of entertaining the con-
gress is eagerly sought by foreign
countries.
The initial step will be taken when
there will be a jubilee opening at the
New National Museum in connection
with the congress and tuberculosis
exposition. 1t will be one of the
largest, the most important and. in
exhibits ever assembled.
1t will be illustrative of what is
being done throughout the world in
the fight against tuberculosis. While
the display is connected with the con-
gress. it is not so closely related as
to be taken as the official opening of
the congress. That important event
will occur one week later--Septembe
28.
Scientists of international reputa-
ton will be in attendance through
out the congress. They will explain
the influence and effect of the cru
SADIE against consumption and the
most advanced methods for its treat
ment and prevention. S

MEN KILLED ON
THE STEAMER COLON
Ship Mas Terrible Experience In
Hurricane.

Colon (By Cab1e) The steam
ship Colon, half-masted and showing
other evidences of distress, came
limping into this port. She had been
badly battered by the hurricane en-
countered Sunday.
Three members of her crew lost
their lives while engaged in the hold
repairing water tank.
The Colon belongs to the Panama
York September 10, and was due to
hurricane at a point 40 miles north
of Waiting Island. The wind blew
100 miles an hour and tremendous
seas soon were sweeping over the YES
sci. The staterooms and the din
ing saloon were flooded, one of her
smokestacks were carried away, three
boats were washed overheard, and
the wireless telegraph apparatus was
dispantled. Orders were given that
no passengers be allowed on deck,
and the travellers had to spend Sun
day and Sunday night in the dining
saloon. The water got to the mail
bags and the registered and ordinary
mail was badly damaged. Sunday
night passed with the ship laboring
through the storm and passengers
huddled below in state of panic.
Killed By Gas.
Early Monday morning it was dis
covered that salt water was making
it's way into the forward fresh water
tank. Fearing that the fresh water
would give out the second assistant
engineer. William Liley, and his
ships carpenter, j. Olsen. were sent
down into the hold Monday after
noon to change the tank connection.
The two men were below for an hour
ing. Anxious for their safety, r. Bar
TIL, water tender, and A. Sands. a
junior engineer. volunteered to go
below and learn what had happen
ed.
Barthl was the first to enter the
hold, with Sands few feet behind
him. Barthl had walked but a few
PAGES when he was seen to drop.
Sands staggered and fell, but man
aged to make his way back to the
hatch ladder whence he was assisted
to the deck by the chief engineer.
He was partially unconscious and in
a condition of prostration.
1t was then seen that the hold was
filled with deadly gases and all hope
for the three men had to be given
up.
When the storm abated efforts
were made to reach the missing men.
The matches were removed and the
foul air was pumped out of the hold
until 1t was possible. to go below.
The bodies of Liley. Olsen and Bar
thl were then found. Just what
caused the presence of these deadly
gases in the hold of the Colon has
not been explained.

its runners for 80 feet the machine
rose gradually and had gained a
height of 40 feet when it passed
over the starting apparatus for the
first time. There was six-mile wind
and it was noticed that the machine
did not run as smoothly as on its
former flights, most of which were
made in calm weather. The aero
pianist, however, apparently had con-
troll of the aerial flyer, which rose to
height of Is feet as it completed
the second round of the field. This
height was maintained on the third
round.
While the machine was turning at
the southern end of the field, several
thousand feet from the spectators,
some one shouted:
What is that? Something fell"
Immediately all eyes were on the
aeroplane, and it was seen to turn
over on it's left side and, pausing a
moment, made complete turn and
then came swooping to the earth
in cloud of dust. No effort on the
part of the aviator could possibly,
have averted the accident. Planes
and rudders were absolutely incap-
able of righting the machine when
1t had turned in that manner.
Several Officers, who were stand
ing around the starting apparatus,
ordered the mounted soldiers over
to the wreck, but spectators, soldiers,
officers and newspaper men were al
ready running across the field. 1t
was fully a minute before anyone
reached the tangled mass.

FOUR PERSONS ARE
KILLED BY DYNAMITE
Hurled to reath By Car Of the
Explosive.

Kansas City, Mo. Especially From
four to eight persons are reported
dead, and from 16 to 20 others in
jured, some of them perhaps fatally,
as the result Of the explosion of a
car of dynamite at Windsor, Mo.
So much confusion exists at Windsor
that accurate figures on the casual
ties were unobtainable.
The dead number four, as follows.
Frederick Yates, station agent OF
the Missouri. Kansas & Texas Rail-
way.
Dee Hall, of Windsor, a drayman.
An unknown tramp.
An unknown laborer
Yates and Dee Hall, the latter Il
drayman, were the most horribly
mangled, though many received
broken bones and were terribly cut
The injured were made up of the
usual crowd commonly found about
the railway station of the small town
at train time. The explosion occur
red without warning. and the vic
Tins had no opportunity to escape.
1t was of such force that it tore a
great hole in the ground where the
car had stood and hurled pieces of
the wrecked car and platform in all
directions. The town was shaken
as if by an earthquake, and the eX-
plosion was heard from a radius of
SO miles. Most of the wreckage,
fortunately. was sent in the opposite
direction from the station. and to
this fact alone may be laid the small
loss of life.
Unusual excitement followed the
explosion, but as quickly as possible
the dead and dying were carried to
nearby houses and cared for. The
telegraph wires were snapped by the
explosion. cutting off communica-
ton by that means with outside
points. AS soon as the neighboring
towns were apprised of the catas-
-trophe, aid was sent in from half
a dozen places.
The car containing the dynamite
was attached to a southbound Mis-
souri,, Kansas & Texas freight train.
Windsor. Mo-. where the explosion
occurred, is a town of about 500
persons, situated in Heney County,
81 miles southwest of Sedalia. 1t
is in the center of a rich farming
community. and has newspaper Of
fee. five churches, a Touring miA
and two carriage factories.
