WARON WHITE PLAGUE

Aloany, N. Y, Jan. 2S.-Dr. Eugene
II. Porter, state commissioner of health
anu hisSadV1sory board, named recently
~ aio the department in dealing with
lhe ravages of tuberculosis, have agreed
upon plan of campaign. The advisory
poaro IS made up Of experts on tubercu-
Iosls. The plan was summarized by Dr.
forter last night in his address before
meeting here under the auspices of
the state Charities Aid association in
cooperation with the state department
OF health in it's state campaign for the
prevention of tuberculosis.
DR.. Porter announced. that a bill will
be introduced in the legislature making
mandatory, registration and notifica-
ton or all cases oftuberculoSiS through
out the state. The state department of
health, DR.. Porter said, must insist
upon the registration of all cases of
tuberculosis. 1t is absolutely essential
that the location and distribution Of
these cases be known in order that
proper measures may be taken for their
instruction and relief
THE department should investigate
the conditions existing in any given
part or parts of the state, should pro-
vide for the wide distribution of cir
culars, pamphlets and other literature
bearing on the prevention Of the dis
ease; should enlist the press. the clergy,
the school teachers, the farmers insti-
tutes, the grange meetings and furnish
them with literature and speakers; !;
should instruct health officers and
health boards as to their specific duties !;
should ascertain how the various towns
and localities in the state were per
forming each its part, and should DO
these things constantly"
DR.. Porter made an appeal to the leg
islature for sufficient funds to meet
the needs of the campaign.

BURNING SEA.
Standard Oil Tanks at Port
Hartford Explode
And the Fluid Flows Out Into
the HarbOr.
A MILE SQUARE
OF the Water Is AblaZe and
Endangering the Town.
Trains Cannot Garry Help Ow-
ing to Landslides.

San Luis Obispo, CAL, Jan. 2s.-Two
tanks of the Standard OIL company at
Port Hartford caught fire today from
the heat of the burning oil in a tank
belonging to the Union Oil company
which was struck by lightning yester-
day. One of the Standard company's s
tanks is nearly filled with oil and is
being emptied into an oil schooner at
the wharf. The other tank which was
nearly empty has exploded, the oil
is flowing into the water and the whole
town of Port Hartford is threatened.
Clouds of smoke fill the western
horizon of this city.
The Port Hartford wharf is on fire.

port owing to several land slides. The
Hotel Marie at the wharf is in dan
ger and in all probability will be
destroyed Several schooners are
lying in to take all of the people
aboard in case the port is doomed.
Every available means for lending
aid is being solicited and several
wagon loads of men left here this
morning to render aid. Sheriff Nc
Walden was telephoned for and de-
parted after giving instructions to his
deputy to stand ready to render
Whatever aid he may call for
Four of the nine oil tanks at Port
Hartford are afire and it Is apparent
that the others are doomed. The oil
has spread over the waters and for
more than half a mile square is
burning. Twenty men on a burning
tank barely escaped before the tank
exploded. The families of employees
of oil companies, housed in close
proximity to the tanks abandoned
their homes and scantily clothed
rushed to the surrounding hills as
the other tanks caught fire at 6:15
o'clock this morning. No injuries
have been reported

THAW CASE IS HURRIED.
State Calls No Experts and HunnmeI
Testimony Is Read.

New York, Jan. 2S.-The Thaw case
progressed today to within a few hours
Of its close. When the noon recess was
taken the state had practically con-
cluded it's case in rebuttal and the de-
fense had only few witnesses to call
in sur-rebuttal. The summing up of
the attorneys will begin tomorrow
District Attorney Jerome caused a
distinct surprise by announcing that he
would call no expert witnesses to rebut
the testimony of the alienists intro
duced by the defense. 1t was said he
would rely on arguing that competent
case of legal insanity had not been
made out. His move also prevents the
defense from calling the states experts
of last year in sur-rebuttal to question
them as to their declarations before the
lunacy commission that Thaw was an
incurable paranoic and likely to do
violence If allowed to go free.
The proceedings were materially
speeded by an agreement OF counsel to
the Judge to read the testimony Of
Abraham Hummel concerning the affi-
davit of Evelyn Nesbit is said to have
signed in 1908, charging cruelty against
Harry Thaw as given at the last trial.
This obviated holding court on Black
wells island, where Hummel is serving
a sentence. In return for the conces-
sion by the defense, Mr.. Jerome allow
ed the will Of the defendant to go in
evidence. The testimony had been held
up for want of proof as to his custody.
The will sets apart a sum of s50,000
for purposes of investigation in case
the maker should die a violent or sus-
picfous death. The prosecution brought
several witnesses forward to say Thaw
seemed rational the night of the trag-
edy.
Both prosecution and defense finally
rested at 3:16 o'clock this afternoon.

iron out the differences which have
arisen.
Representative H. B. Haskins of
Johnson, said just before noon: 1.-THE
two senators said this morning that
they wanted time to consult with
their brother senator's, and we have
not seen them since. The conference
committee is supposed to be in ses-
sion now, but we can't find the two
senators and Mr.. Ryan. The commit
tee will have to make up its mind to
something quickly and quit. or 1 will
resign. 1 believe that the chances
are better for an agreement now than
they were earlier this morning."
Representative W. A. Morgan, who
is the Democratic member of the
committee, said this morning: 'I will
never sign report for the split pri-
the secret ballot amendment for
which the Democrats have stood
firmly through both sessions, but
will insist upon the straight Stubbs
bill. The Republican members of
the committee are trying to force me
into line with them, but I won't be
forced"
Senator Smith, it is said, had been
voting throughout the meetings of
the committee for the split primary
bill, but wouldn't sign the report un-
less the square deal senators released
him from his pledge.
Speaker Simmons was asked this
morning whether he would obey the
request of the house petitioners for
the appointment of Mitchell, Kirkland
and Foley on second conference
committee
"I'Il meet that question when it
comes up" said Mr.. Simmons. But

DOGS PUT INTO SERVICE.
Education for Police Duty Is Re-

New York, Jan. 2S.-New York's
police dogs were put into active service
early this morning for the first time.
Experiments with the Belgian hounds
brought from Europe and trained with
an especial view to service as an
adjunct to the city's police force,
proved the effectiveness of their in
