MAKE USE OF SEWAGE
SIR JAMES GR1NT POINTS
TO J4P4N'S EXAMPLE.
Canada's Vice RegcL Physician Says
Stream Pollution Should BE
Turned to Land Fertilization.

Sir lanes Alexander Grant, K c. NJ c., vice
regal physician in Canada, is at the Murray Hlh
Hotel having been called TO this city on SOME
important cases in consultation HIS nome Is
at ottawa. Canada While in Parliament he IN
troduced the original bill providing for the con-
struction of the Canadian Pacific Railway
When asked yesterday what, in his OPINION
was the most important question confronting
the people of North America. Sir James uhhes'-
tatingly and vigorously replied:
Turn to practical account general sewage as
is done in Japan; utilize this sewage for the
fertilization of unproductive areas, and there Is
no saying how many lives may be saved am
how many millions be added to both the United
States and Canada by so desirable an under
taking"
Before he would proceed further along this
line Sir James paid eloquent tribute to ex-Presi-
dent Roosevelt. who. he said, was looked upon
in Canada as next in greatness only to Wash
ngton
Mr. Roosevelt's recent communication to
Earl Grey, Governor General of Canada, 70
the desirability of the conservation of the re-
sources of both countries was most warmly re-
ceived, and a strong evidence Of the good
feeling he wished to promote in all matters Of
this character on the North American CONT
nent' said Sir James
The commission that recently met at Wash
sioners most warmly received and bill
has just been introduced in the Canadian Par
lament to place this whole subject. so far as
Canada is concerned, on a substantial basis
In this whole subject the matter of public
health stands out prominently, ard the conclu-
sion now arrived at is that sewage from the
towns and cities discharged into the streams Of
both countries is doing much to generate typhoid
fever and other diseases fatal in their results
II we will utilize this sewage a Japan is doing
to-day great results will follow. The purity of
water thus conserved has a most important
bearing on the purity of milk which, as an arti-
Gle of diet. IS almost looked upon to-day as the
pabulum OF life.
"The debilitating influence of impure water
and impure milk cannot be overestimated. This
has. In my opinion. most to do with q general
lowering Of the system, which prepares the body
in thckly crowded localities for the production
Of tuberculosis. the mortality from which is not
less in this Republic than one hundred thousand
lives annually.
What great work your ex-President will
have accomplished II his suggestions in these
things are only carried out carefully and turned
10 practical account! IN fact. l consider this
move as one of the greatest of the present era
toward the preservation Of the health and vital
ity OF people"

Rome, March 1.-THE question has been
raised in Rome whether the United States is en-
titled to special satisfaction from the Italian
government account of the murder OF Lieu
tenant Joseph Petrosino, of the New York Po-
lice Department at Palermo. While the nature
Of the crime was such as to stir the hearts OF
all the people the officials of the government
have taken occasion TO point out that only the
Diplomatic and consular bodies under the
special protection of the government, and that
only in case of a member Of one or the other OF
these bodies being assassinated by an Italian IN
this country could the government be held In
measure responsible. PetrOsinO did not come
under this head but was in the category of the
American citizen covered in the treaty between
Italy and the United States concluded February
26. 1871, establishing that the subjects of each
country shall enjoy the same protection and Sc
curity for their persons and property as na-
tives do.
The American Ambassador has made further
representations to the Foreign Office setting
forth the imperative necessity, for the protec-
ton Of both Italians and Americans OF bringing
the assassins Of Petrosino TO justice. The For
eien ONCE officials assured him that everything
possible was being done by the Italian govern
ment and promised that he should he kept in

Mr.. TAFTs PANAMA TRIP.
First Time That President-EIect
Has Ventured to Journey Out
side the United States.
Special to the Herald.

| Special to the Herald
Washington, D. c., Jan 25-Mr.
Taft's present. trip to Panama will be
followed with keener interest here
and throughout the country generally
than anything the president-elect has
done since he defeated Mr.. Bryan at
the polls last November So far as
the records show it is the first time
that president-elect has ever ven
tured to journey beyond the confines
of the United States, just as Presi-
dent Roosevelts trip to Panama two
years ago was the first instance of a
chief executive of the nation leaving
the country. In the case of Mr. Taft
the interest, or it might be said the
apprehension, is increased by the fact
that there is no legal provision for
successor to the presidency in the
event of fatality overtaking presi-
dent-elect before his Inauguration.
Aside from this phase of the case,
however, the trip of the president
elect to Panama is regarded as of
much public interest and importance.
Mr.. Taft will make thorough inspec-
ton of the conditions of the isthmus
and the progress of work on the canal
and he will have the benefit of expert
advice from half a dozen noted civil
engineers whom he is taking along
with him A special train will be at
the disposal of the party while on the
isthmus. Mr.. Taft plans to spend
much of his time at the site of the
Gatun dam as the principal work of
the engineers with him is to ascertain
the adequacy of the natural founda-
lions for this structure, concerning
which there has been so much COM
ment; and criticism. Minor tangles of
administration which may be found to
exist will be Strengthened out by Mr..
Taft, who also will make it point to
give i Impetus to the general work of
- bal.
