SUPPRESSION OF NEWS
CAUSES PANIC IN ROME
b. Associated Press.

b NssOcIdIed PTess.
ROME, Sunday, March /, via Paris,
March 3.-The municipality of Rome
has pursued a mistaken policy in en-
deavoring 10 suppress the news of an
outbreak Of smallpox in this city in the
fear of frightening away the spring
tourist trade, which constitutes a large
source of revenue to the capital.
Instead of pacifying the public fears
the method pursued in prohibiting the
sending of kilograms referring to the
outbreak has given rise to the spread
of the widest and most exaggerated
reports. There is practically a panic
in Rome over this smallpox scare.

SAN FRANCISCO, March s.---A spe-
cial committee of the Clearing House
association, composed of Homer S.
King, president of the Bank of Cali
foraia; Frank b. Anderson, manager
of the Bank of California; P. N Lii
ienthal, manager of the Angelo Cali

vice president of the Wells Fargo
Nevada National bank, appeared be-
fore the special legislative committee
on banking laws today TO make rec
concentrations to the legislators tor the
amendment of tho present banking
laws
Mr.. King said the late stringency
had been caused by the impossibility
of getting money from the east. He
said that a false impression had ex-
listed that the banks of the state had
lent money in the east for speculative
purposes but that as a matter of fact
the difficulty lay in getting gold re-
turns for trade balances due the west
by the east.
Appropriation Too Small

was the matter with the state bank
COMMISSION <AIiOSISOu Stll0 lAAS dPplO-
priation was too small and the field
of work was too large. He said the
commissioners were not judges of the
value of securities and that they We're
compelled to take the word of the
cashiers in this matter. He expressed
the opinion that it was not possible
to hire expert examiners for $4,000
year.
All We're agreed that a law should
be passed preventing trust companies
from including trust funds in theiri
assets, but there was some difference
of opinion as to establishing a legal
reserve limit.
James NJ. Crittenden. president of
the suspended Bank of San Luis Obs
po, asked to be heard on the question
of restricting the powers of the bank
commission. He said the present
banking laws were unconstitutional in
that they permitted the commission to
seize the property Of a bank before it
had been properly adjudicated insol-
vent in a court of competent jurisdic-
ton Crittenden also asked the COM
mittee to recommend legislation which
would prevent the issuance of clearing

Bonaparte Soon to Issue Statement
on Railroad Merger.

Washington, Jan. Within a
week or ten days the department OF
justice will issue statement regarding
the ownership by the Union Pacific OF
stock Of the Southern Pacific" sald At
torney General Bonaparte. "It had
been contemplated to issue the state
ment earlier, but the absence in Eur
ope Of special counsel employed by the
government has caused the delay"
While the attorney general will not
admit at this time that the statement
will be the announcement of proceed
ings against the Union Pacific for vio-
lation of the law prohibiting restraint
of trade, there is excellent authority
for the statement that it will be. The
department of justice, according to one
of its high officials, has reached the
conclusion arrived at by the Interstate
Commerce commission that the control
which the Union Pacific has obtained
over the Southern Pacific by the pur-
chase of stock is in violation OF the law
and amounts in substar ce to the merg-
ing OF two competing railways.
Not only will the government pro-
ceed for dissolution Of the merger and
restoration Of the competition which
prevailed before the Union Pacific
bought Southern Pacific stock, but the
courts will be asked, it is stated by an
official of the department, to break up
the combine under which the two rail-
roads are alleged to operate their steam
ships

FUND FOR Ex-PRESiDENTS.
Senator Allison Favors Some Such
Action by Congress.

Washington, Jan. 1.-Senator Will
liam B. Allison, Of Iowa, chairman OF
the committee on appropriations, favors
action by congress looking to the care
and support OF expresidents OF the
United States. In an interview to-
night he referred to the recent utter
ances of ex-President Grover Cleveland
on the subject, and agreed with him
that some provision should be made in
this direction. The matter deserved
consideration at the hands Of congress,
he said, and undoubtedly would receive
it. In times OF Thomas Jefferson, who
died poor, Mr.. Allison said, the gov
ernment would have done we'll to pay
his debts. At present Mrs. Garfield is
receiving an allowance from the gov
eminent, and he said that to make pro-
vision for ex-presidents would cause on
considerable drain on the treasury, as
rarely have there been two of them
alive at the same time.

RUSSIA GIVING UP ALL HOPE

Pekin, Jan. Ivan shipoff, agent
of the Russian finance ministry, has
concluded a three-months' investiga-

that expenditures be reduced in every
direction possible. This action is con-

churia. The railroad was isolated dur
ing the Russo-Japanese war and Ja-
pans policy since then has practically
strangled it. 1t is believed that the
deficit of the Chinese Eastern railway
for 1908 will amount to SIS, 100000.
Traffic over the line is declining, par
ticularly at Harbin.
Japan has forbidden China to extend
the Hsn Min Tun railroad in the di-
rection Of Tsitsikhar. This step has
aroused evaporation among the Eng
lishmen who have capital invested in
the line, and it is characterized as an
other evidence of the monopolistic atti-
tude of Japan in Manchuria.

Three Firemen Badly Injured at Van

Vancouver, B. c., Jan. 2.-Allan
Anderson, fireman, is dying and two
other youns men, also members of the
city fire department, are badly wound
ed and in the hospital as the result Of a
fight they had early this morning in
the Japanese quarter with an over
whelming number of the subjects of the
mikado. The fight was the worst in
the city since the September riots, and
indicates that the Japanese are at all
times ready for trouble and eager to
fight with their long knives that have
blades keen as razors.
Anderson, accompanied by j. Frost
and T. Mcdonald, was passing jap
anese store, when Frost stumbled and
fell hard against the plate-glass window
front. The glass smashed and the frag-
ments were still rolling on the sidewalk
when a score of japanese appeared from
the inside and rushed at the trio of
whites. The fremen were in uniform,
with brass buttons and official caps, but
the Japanese knitted them furiously.

GRIPPE FASTENS
ON GREAT CITIES
Nearly Every City East of Mississippi
River Affected.
Mild, Open Weather Held RESPONSE
bIe-epidemic May Surpass That
of lB8o-9O-Street Car Service
in Pittsburg CrippIed-Chicago 10
Apprehensive.

Chicago, Dec. 3l.-Deadly grippe,
which has already fastened itself upon
nearly every city east Of the Mississippi
river, is spreading westward with ap-
palling rapidity. Not since the terri
lie epidemic of 1Ss9-90 have there been
such ravages by the fearful malady as
at the present time, according to special
dispatches gathered from many sources.
Mild, open weather, highly unseasona-
BILE, is held responsible by health au-
thorities.
Pittsburg is the chief complainant.
So many people there are ill that the
streetcar service is crippled and Office
buildings are practically empty. Be-
sides Pittsburg, New York, Baltimore,
Cincinnati, Philadelphia, Cleveland,
Boston, Milwaukee and other Eastern
and Western cities were reported to be
wrestling with the disease, a number of
deaths in each city occurring daily.
"La grippe, as the French call it,
said Dr.. Herman Spalding, of the Chi
cago Health department, "travels with
the speed of prairie fire. 1t travels
along the lines Of transportation, as it
is carried by travellers fbom one city to
another. 1t is decidedly contagious
and there is no effective way of check
ing it's spread. If other cities become
badly affected, Chiago is sure to be hit,
because Of the thousands of travellers
who arrive daily in Chicago from every
point of the compass"
From New York word comes that the
grippe has begun devastating crusade
in that city and that among it's victims
have been opera singers and many
actors and actresses. There were SO
deaths in the metropolis last week.
Besides this there were many deaths
from pneumonia, influenced by the
grippe bacillus.
Physicians in Boston say there are at
least 10000 cases now in that city.
Cincinnati has 1000 cases and physi-
clans say that new cases are developing
by the score every hour.

during the month Of December and but
threre cases remaining under treatment
at the isolation hospital, the plague in
San Francisco is almost eradjcated.
More that $600,O has been expended

Federal government is paying three
fourths. 1t is estimated that approx
mately 10000 rats have been de-
streyed during the past four months.
Thirty-fve thousand, six hundred and
forty two rats were brought to the la
boratory of the health department. OF
this number, IL ,39l we're examined by
bacteriologists for plague and l06 found
to be infected.
"The situation is greatly improved" !"
aaid DR.. Blue today, "despite the apa-
thetic attitude of the people of San
Francisco, some of whom have been
inclined to hostility toward us for the
work that we are doing for their bene-
fit."
The total number of cases reported to
date is 1876; deaths 73; cured 80; re-
naming under treatment 8; suspected
cases 18,

ON SECOND STAGE.
BattIeship Fleet Leaves Trinidad for
Rio Janeiro,

Port OF Spain, Dec. 3l.-The Ameri-
can battleship feet weighed anchor at
o'clock Sunday afternoon and steamed
for Rio Janeiro. Accompanying the
feet were the supply ships Culgoa and
Glacier. Early in the morning the
signal went up from Rear Admiral
Evans flagship Connecticut to prepare
! for dearture a. a. M, but owing TO
delay in the coaling of the battleship
Maine from the collier Fortuna, it waa
necessary to change the time of sailing.
Long before the hour set myriad of
small craft, chiefly launches and steam
yachts, moved up and down along the
lines of anchored battleships, the mer-
ry parties aboard shouting faIewells to
the departing visitors. Thousands of
residents climbed the surrounding hills
to view the great ships as they moved
outward on their journey of 5000 miles
and more, while boatoads of excursion
lists went to the small islands in the
gulf and others to the floating dock to
catch the last glimpse of the ships.
The fleet presented magnificent ap-
peaIance as it steamed out in four col
umns with the supply ships trailing, a
distance of 400 yards separating one di-
vision from another. With the Con-
necticut in the lead the battleships
headed for the Booas and steamed ma.
jestically through the grand Booa and
thence along the northern coast of Trim
idad. An average Of from 10 to IL
knots an hour will carry the feet to the
end of the second lap of the 1000
mile journey in about ~ days, and it
was announced by Admiral Evans be-
fore his departure that he expects to
reach Rio Janeiro on Friday evening
January 10.
