American Senators

of the committee on finance, indicated

of asking for such sessions by present.
ing a resolution providing that. begin
ming Tuesday. the daily sessions
should begin at 1880 a. m. and con-
tinue until il p. M. with an inter-
mission of two and a half hours for
dinner.
Senator Culberson, the democratic
caucus leader prevented an immediate
consideration of the resolution by max
ing an objection, forcing it over until
tomorrow.
NIGHT SESSIONS CERTAIN
Aldrich, however. gave notice that
he would move a recess at 80 today
until 1870 a. m. tomorrow with the
intention of then asking for night ses-
sions and the carrying out thereafter
of the program as indicated in his
resolution. There is no doubt that the
republican majority, including the
progressives, viii support him in his
proposition
Senators Smoot and Lodge. both ma

Senator Cummns today introduced
his income tax amendment to the tariff

Germany Feels Sore
BERLIN, June 1.-The charges made
in Washington by, various American
senators that the German government
was endeavoring to influence tariff
Legislation in the United States by sup
plying official information regarding
wages which, upon examination, proved
them to be much higher than the
wages attributed to German manu-
facturers in the hearing before the
ways and means committee of the
house, has caused a disag greeable inn
preston in governmental offices here.
This is especially the case in the
ministry of the interior and the foreign
office, where the information in ques-
tion was prepared in reply to re-
quest sent in by the state department.
The German government has been
subjected during the last two months
to attacks by German trade journals
for having supplied America with Ger
man trade secrets. This knowledge of
German wages, it is alleged made it
possible to adjust the new tariff to a
level where German goods could not be
exported to the United States.

The Palisadian' is indebted to DR.
Frederick James Quigley for copy of
the Thirty-second Annual Report of
the State Board of Health. This valu-
able work contains much of interest,
and among other things proves by
comparative charts that the fatalities
of many diseases have been greatly
reduced by intelligent methods of
modern practice. For INSTANCE, Ber-
gen County in typhoid cases has the
lowest record of any county in the
State, except Somerset the one being

Fatalities from consumption per
10000 population have been reduced
from 2o2I in 1882 to 1867 in 1907.
The decrease has been gradual from
1892, when the rate was 23.65 to the
present, but in 1902 it was down to
1882.
Diphtheria, also, has been reduced
largely, going from 1880 per 10000
population in 1888 to 2SI in 1907.
Measles has been reduced from 2.2z

showing that this terrible affection has
practically been conquered, so far as
New Jersey is concerned
There were FIVE deaths from rabies
in the whole State in 1907. The Board
advocates the muzzling of dogs al
lowed at large, and cites the English
law. In Great Britain the value of
muzzling has been clearly proved. In
1889, when the muzzling law was en-
forced, 1t took only to 1902 to eradi-
cate the disease. Muzzling was
stopped in that year, because Of much
opposition, the disease immediately in
creasing till 1906. when the law was
again enforced. Since 1900 the coun>
try has been entirely free from rabies.
Sweden has no rabies because of the
muzzling laws, and Australia has
never known the disease because the
infectious agent has never been intro
duced, and the importation of dogs is
absolutely prohibited.
Regarding the health of communi-
ties, the report gives the Borough of
Clltfside the palm as the most unsani-
tary at the time of the report. but a
