Mr.. BELMONT ON TRANSIT
Controller Metz asks Him Questions
at Brooklun Meetinp.

August Belmont, Commissioner Bassett and Con-
troller discussed subways and the rapid tran
sit problem in Brooklyn at the quarterly meeting
of the Brooklyn League held last night in the Pouch
Gallery, in Clinton avenue.
Mr. Bassett said that Brooklyn was seriously
handicapped in the solving Of her transit problems
because of the geogra phica peculiarities. 1t was
more than absurd TO build subways and other lines
and expect the people to follow the tracks he said
Rapid transit does not necessarily mean subways"
he continued "Subways too expensive and in
the Of of the proposed routes the expense
is justified by the assessed valus of the abut-
ting real estate"
Mr. Belmont told OF the difficulties OF Interesting
private capital in great public Improvements be-
Of the law regarding franchises Ihe limit
and did not permit of the building of lines with a
reasonable profit He urged that steps be taken to
have the law amended. Mr.. Belmont said that the
lnterborougf now ready to take up the propn-
sition of connecting the Brooklyn subway with the
elevated tracks over the Manhattan Bridge when
completed The trains he said. would issue trans
fers to the New York elevated lines Mr. Belmont
urged the speedy opening of the Steinway tunnel
in Queens. which he said would turn the tide of
population from New Jersey where il is now tend
ing, into Queens.
While Mr. Belmont finishing his speech Con-
troller Metz entered and was called upon to speak
He said that he wanted TO ask Mr. Belmont a

That is the only excuse the manager

performance of the aforesaid show at the
Salt Lake theatre last evening
Section 1897 of the revised statutes OF
the state of Utah reads as follows:
Every person who knowingly and de-
signedly, by false or fraudulent represen-
tations or pretenses, shall obtain from
anv other person any chose in action,
money, goods. wares, chattels. effects, or
other valuable thing, with intent to cheat
or defraud any person of the same, If the
value of the property so obtained does
not exceed $50. is punishable as in cases
of petit larceny, and when the property
so obtained is of the value of more than
so. the persons so offending shall be pun

1t would seem that the taking of 81 I'M

City and Usage City the crowds were
correspondingly large.
In the fourteen speeches delivered
during the day and evening >by Mr.
Taft he not only talked in detail of the
tariff and trusts and labor, but fur
nished Kansas farmers an itemized ac-
count of the increased profits they
made in the last year because of the
operation of the principle of the pro-
lection, as he put it, over what they
made under the Democratic enforce
ment of free trade. This was the novel
feature of his speeches in Kansas over
what he has been saying in the other
states on the trip.
AS did Denver last night. so Topeka
did tonight, putting on her red cloak
of red fire and rocket adOrnment, pro-
ducing her political marchers and lent
her enthusiasm to create the proper
degree of political exuberance- The

the candidate, Senator Dollirer and
other speakers The audiences taxed
the capacity of the buildings and fur
nished inspiration for the speakers

tomorrow make a short address at the

MAJORITY WERE
AGAINST KOCH
Resolution Passed by TGbercu-
loSiS Congress in Opposition
to the German Savant.
QUESTION LONG DEBATED
POSSIBILITY OF HUMAN iNFEC-
TION FROM BOVINE sAcILLI.

Washington, Oct. "A signal victory
was today won by the opponents of the
theory advanced by Dr. Robert Koch,
the eminent German scientist. minim-
izing the danger of human infection
from bovine tubercule bacilli when the
sixth triennial International Congress
on tuberculosis, just before final ad-
journment, placed itself squarely on
record in opposition to the views of the
Germans savant- The body. by unani-
nous vote, adopted a resolution recog-
nizing the possibility of human in
lection from the bovine tubercule
bacilli. The text of the resolution fol-
lows:
Resolution Adopted.
Resolved. That the utmost efforts
should be continued in the struggle
against tuberculosis to prevent the
conveyance from man to man of tuber-
culOsiS infection as the most import
ant sources of the disease;
That preventive measures be con-
tinued against bovine tuberculosis and
that the possibility of the propagation
of this to man be recognized
The official expression was greeted
not DR.. Koch has receded from his po-
sitiOn as TO the unity of human and
bovine tubercule bacilli which he has
maintained so tenaciously by silently
acquiescing in the adoption of the re-
solution is not known. He sat through
the proceedings without even so much
as a nod OF his head. 1t is believed
however, that the German scientist
has modified his views on this ques-
ton, but rather than provoke anew the
controversy he declined to openly COM
NIT himself.
Will Stop Discussion.
The action of the congress on this
noteworthy issue, it is thought, will for
the time being put a quietus to further
agitation at the next meeting of the
congress in Rome in 1911. This scien-
tific battle has been waged with great
vigcr ever since DR.. Koch advanced
his doctrine at the Londan congress on
tuberculosis in 1901.
Secretary of the Treasury Cortelyou
presided at the closing session. The
closing sessions were marked by re-
spOnses by the representatives of
thirty-three nations rejecting the con-
fident hope that medical science will in
the not far distant future triumph over
the scourge of tuberculosis.
