overwhelmed BY TOURISTS
SHIPPING COMPANIES UNABLE
TO MEET DEMANDS.
Long Waiting List at All London
OMces-Travelers More Numer-
GUS Than Usual.

Special Cablesram TO The Star.
LONDON. September 4.-The close of
the summer tourist season witnesses the
usual rush of Americans to secure home
ward passages, with the result, also as
usual, that many are disappointed and
compelled to prolong their stay in Eng
land indefinitely. The shipping COM
panies are nowhere near able to provide
sufilcient accommodations to meet the
demand. Every big company has a long
list of persons eager to seize the first
opportunity to cross. There were more
than one hundred names on the waiting
list at the Cunard ojce when the Maure-
tania sailed today. If few berths had
fallen vacant at the last moment the first
on the list would have been accommo-
dated, but there We're no vacancies.
The Cunard people say that it has been
record season. The Carmania, which
sailed last Tuesday, could have been
filled twice over. All the Cunard boats
are booked substantially full until the
middle of October, few first-cIass
berths from September 2S onward being
the only ones available for late comers.
The North German Lloyd officials say
that the only berth they can offer for

EFFECT OF SERUM ON CHOLERA
DECREASE IN MORTALITY DUE
TO RECENT DISCOVERY.
Formulas Regarded by DR.. Salam-
bini as of Great Value-Pre-
cautions Necessary.

PARIS. September 4.-Dr. Salambini,
the discovery of whose serum and vaccine
for the treatment of cholera has recently
been announced, calls attention to the
decreasing mortality in Russia where the
serum was injected in a large number
of critical cases. He believes 1t certain.
therefore, that IL the serum were used in
the early stages of the disease the results
would be very much more successful.
The serum has been prepared as q re-
suit OF much work with formulas sug-
gested By professors of the Pasteur Insti-
tute.
With reference to the vaccine. Prof.
Netchnikoff of the Pasteur Institute de-
cIared today that It was q most impor-
tant discovery, but he warned all that 1t
should be employed with the greatest
discretion. Moreover, he expressed doubt
OF the practicability of general vaccina-
ton and still believed that the essential
thing TO combat the disease was the
adoption of ordinary precautions such as
boiling drinking water and a close scru-
tiny of uncooked vegetables. His OBJ
servations in Russia convinced him that
the highest cholera mortality was among
drunkards who heedlessly quenched
their thirst with all sorts of infected
water.
DIR. Saiambinis discoveries are of the
greatest interest IN medical circles and
to the people generally. as France has
Just adopted very rigid disinfecting pre-
cautions on the frontier In view OF the

Two in Washington.

The two other places are on the water
front of Washington. One Of them takes
in the area of Potomac Park. which is
almost exactly ten kilometers around the
waters edge, and the other extends from
tn speedway to the Virginia shore, and
involves crossing the river. This would
give a wide area for laying out the
course and either Of the latter locations
would give a good spot for special con-
tests over the water.
The idea of flying over water at all Is
not so distaSteful to ayiatorS as it would
have been year ago, and it Is possible
a year from now it will be even less so.
1t is believed. however. that course can
be laid out around Potomac Park where
there will be practically no water to cross
and which. being directly In the city,
eliminates the question of transportation
altogether.
