TYPHOID FEVER CASES
ARE DIMINISHING

DR.. o. b. Miles, secretary of the
Salem sanitary department, said to-
day that the typhoid fever cases in
this city were diminishing in NUM-
Der rapidly now, that the public is
using the utmost caution in consum-
ing the water. Although an exact
estimate of the decreasing number
Of cases has not been made as yet,
but, according to reports being hand
ed in from time to time during the
past week, but very few new cases
have materialized., ~>,
DR.. Miles was not surprised at the
discovery of the leak in the main
which conveyed the water to Salem
consumers, and several weeks ago
he suggested to the company that
they make an Investigation and as
certain If anything is wrong with the
pipe line leading from the intake in
| the Willamette river to this city
However," said the officer of the
sanitary board today eve are going
to continue examining and testing
the water In Salem regularly, and, by
weekly tests, we can ascertain wheth
er or not the trouble lies in leaky
pipes or in the crib. 1t is probable
| that there will be no evidence of
germs after the pipe has been re-
paired, but whether or not there are
other holes in the pipe remains to
/ be seen. If it can be actually ascer-
tanned that the pipe is free of further
defect, and there is still evidence of
germs, then an investigation will be
in order for the crib.
"Now that the city has secured a
special sanitary officer, we can pro-
ceed on a systematic plan to clean up
the city and avoid much of the causes
for probable sickness. Anyone in
the city or suburbs finding a reason
able cause to believe that unsanitary
conditions exist in their vicinity are
requested to call up the special Off
Ger or myself and we will look into
the cases without delay. and If nee

The Brooklyn mans adherents also said the
truth Of the two Esquimaus story to the Peary
party could be tested in one important particu-
lar by future explorers, as DR.. Cook had told of
seeing a land which he named Bradley Land,
near the S5th parallel Of latitude in longitude
l02. To reach point on the Polar Sea where
he could see this land they say. he would have
to travel for week OF more, much further than
the two days journey which the Fsquimaus de-
scribed to Peary. To this the Peary sympa-
thizers replied that land AT the point Dr. Cook
described could be seen from the TO of Cape
Thomas hubbard, which is 1000 feet high. The
position described by Dr. Cook is tribe more
than TWO hundred mics from Cape Thomas
Hubbard. and on an exceI t'onauy clear day
land might be seen at that distance. they said.
In severa4 minor partic liars the Cook sup
porters pointed oft that the Esquimaus' story
conceded with that of DR.. Cook He has said
that he killed no game Of any sort north of
