KOCH THEORY is DlSPR0vED
Theory of DR.. Bartels Supported by
Tuberculosis Congress.

Washington.-At the banquet given
tonight by Secretary Root TO the mem
bers Of the tuberculosis Congress, the
chief topic of conversation, among the
scientists was the surprising results
that have come through the incubation
of twelve adults by DIR. Ladislas DE Ire,
Of Budapest, in an effort to controvert
the reported discoveries by DR.. Koch, the
famous German specialist
DIR. Koch has insisted before the con.
gress that bovine tuberculosis can be
transmitted to human beings To test
this, the incubation of the twelve adults,
residing in the Washington tuberculosis
hospital, was done almost secretly.
Nothing was said about the test until
tonight, when it was triumphantly an
nounced by DIR. Tres supporters that the
tests had shown eleven OF the patients
suffering from human tuberculosis and
one unmistakable case OF bovine tuber.
rulosis.
This absolute proof that DIR. Koch is
incorrect, apparently, in his theory, has
aroused great interest among the seien-
lists, who have been accustomed to loos
upon DIR. Koch as the man who says
the last word regarding the disease.

PRESIDENT MAY TAKE STUMP
Secretary Loeb Says His Chief Has
No Engagements at Present.

Washington.-No two persons seem 10
be able to agree whether President
Roosevelt will take the stump for Judge
Taft. Not even Secretary Loeb could
throw any light today upon this issue
He admitted that it was possible the
condition of things might demand that
such a step be taken. Just now the
secretary said, the presidents intention
is to remain In Washington.
As TO Mr.. Bryan's last letter the
president regarded as so much in the
nature of personal attack" upon him
that there was no reason why he should
answer it.
Secretary Loeb today made the state
ment that President Roosevelt had no
intention at present of making a speak
ing tour in behalf Of the Republican
candidate for the presidency. Many in
vitations had been received by the presi-
dent, Mr.. Loeb said, but Mr.. Roosevelt
never has stated that he would take the
stump.
When asked whether ii the situation
took such turn that the president
might consider that making a speaking
tour would materially aid the Republic
can cause, the president in that event
would take tho stump, Mr.. Loeb re-
piled that he might or might not do
so, and added that no one could tell
what the future would bring forth.

HOW SOUTHERN CUT PAY ROLL
Discharged 12,077 Men, Reducing
Expenses Million Per Month.

Atlanta, Ga.-Lincoln Green, freight
traffic manager of the Southern Rail
way, after giving direct testimony yes
terday before the Interstate Commerce
Commission was cross-questioned today
by o. c. Sethemier, who represents the
Alabama Railroad Commission. When
asked If the expenditures had been cur
tailed during the year 1905 Mr.. Green
said that they had 10 the extent of
81 900, 900 per month and that very cruel
methods had been resorted TO in order
TO enable them to do so.
Later Mr.. Green was asked outside
the courtroom what he meant by "cruel
methods" and he explained by stating
that in June, 1907, there were over So
900 employees in the service Of the South
ern Railway, and in June, 1905, there
had been a reduction in the force of
i2,077 employees, o' approximately a re
iuction OF rs per cent, which repre-,
scented "a salary pay roll of between
$4,000, 600 and s7,OOO,OOO annually,
which formerly had been distributed in
the States affected by the advanced
freight rates.

BIG DAY AT TRl-STATE FAIR
Exhibits in Place and Amusements
Open-Increased Attendance.

Memphis, Tenn.-Attendance at the
Tri-State Fair yesterday eclipsed any of
its predecessors, and while there were
thousands of people present from almost
everywhere, country people predomi-
mated. 1t was Farmers Union Day, Of
ficially, and many families were present
from hill and mead and from farm and
village.
And the crowd was not only larger,
but it appeared TO have more of the
carnival spirit than did the crowds ON
other days. All the exhibit halls were
beautiful to behold and the Triangle
and Booth Row were alive with all sorts
of things calculated to amuse the peo-
pie.
The event of the forenoon, perhaps, so
far as the serious side OF the fair was
concerned, was the parade of high grade
beef and show cattle that had arrived
at the fair grounds from the North the
night before. There are three carloads
of these cattle, and they are said 10 all
be blue ribbon winners at the respective
State fairs of Illinois, Ohio, Kentucky,
Indiana and Tennessee.
Tri-State Fair officials are highly
elated that they succeeded in getting
this exhibit this year. The grade and
value of cattle brought here from the
leading cattle producing States of the
whole country, il is thought, will be an
incentive to the people of the TriStates
TO improve their herds, and therefore
be Of vast material benefit to the people
of the South. The first exhibition Of
these cattle was made when the fair
was largely attended by farmers, and
many words of admiration we're heard
