Hawaii, Separate Command.

SAN FRANCISCO. August 25.-The
annual report of Major-General Thomas
H. Barry, who was recently relieved OF
command of the Department Of Califor-
MIA. contains the recommendation that
the troops stationed In the Hawaiian
Islands be segregated into a separate
district of the Department of Califor-
MIA under the command of brigadier
general, and that the forces in the Is
lands be materially increased.
General Barry points out that the
Territory Of Hawaii is too far away
from San Francisco to be administered
as at present and also declares that the
forces should be increased so that the
entire complement of regiments shall
be stationed on the Islands. At present
portions of the Fifth Cavalry and the
Twentieth Infantry comprise the gar
portions Of the regiments being either
in the United States or in Manila.
The report recommends that Fort
Shafter be expanded into a regimental
post and that a regiment of infantry
be stationed there and that Schofield
Barracks be garrisoned by a regiment
of cavalry instead of two squadrons
as at present The organization of the
batteries at Fort Kamehameha into a
separate battle command of four com
panies of Coast Artillery is recon-
mended.

The American Hawaiian company Is
verv closely associated with the Santa
Fe railway, and the fact that the Santa
Fe has recently made a switching agree
ment with the Pacific Electric, whereby
its freight ears will be hauled over the
tracks of the latter company down to
the wharves at San Pedro, lends color
to the belief that there may be some
interesting developments soon.
At the present time the only southern
California stop being made by the big
ships is at San Diego, despite the fact
that the greater part of the cargo IN
loaded there is for this city. This neces-
states transshipping by rail via the
Santa Fe.
Just as soon as proper wharfage ana

these ships will be brought up to this

.LEPR0SY SOLVED
BY SCIENTISTS
Great Achievement Recorded at
Leper Colony After Years
of Experiments. !

WASHINGTON, August 29.-Lep-
rosy, the unconquered scourge OF the
age, is making what IS believed to be
its last stand against science. From
Molokai, the coral island prison for the
plague stricken IN the Hawaiian group,
a few words have been flashed half
way around the world to Washington
telling of an achievement accounted
second only to the discovery of the
lepra bacillus by Hansen in 1879.
Three surgeons Of the United States
public health and marine service after
months of unremitting toll have grown
lepra bacilli in pure culture outside the
human body and in tiny thin glass
tubes in the laboratory loathsome
germs are now growing IN their third
generation. Four times the scientists
have taken the infection from the body
of leper and artifcially propagated
the bacillus on beef broth, eggs or
amoeba Of the intestines of guinea
pig The work of DR.. Moses T. Clegg,
who declared less than year ago at
Manila that he had found that the
banillus could be cultivated outside the
human body, is verified and extended.
Clegg has been rushed from the Manila
scientific station to Molokai to assist
in the experiments.
DIR. Donald H. Currie, director of the
station; DIR. Walter r. Brinckerhoff and
DR.. T. Holman are the men who have
grown the cultures. After four months ;
careful work, in which they had labor
ed to grow the lepra bacillus in the
amoeba of pond water, guinea pig in
testines and other loI forms of animal
life, they were about to give up de-
feated.
Some Of the tubes containing speci-
mems were about to be destroyed, when
one Of the men determined to make a
last inspection Of the cultures, in for
lorn hope. To his astonishment he
found the germ living The discovery
spurred the investigators to new eff
forts and back over the blazed trail
they had covered SO often they worked
again. Clegg had found that by feed
ing the bacillus of cholera to the
amoeba the leper bacillus did better.
That was supplemented by gelatine,
beef extract and eggs, and within
three weeks the searchers were reward
ed again with the living germ. Currie
obtained a pure culture, which means
he has eliminated the amoeba and the
cholera bacillus and now has the lepra
bacillus propagating itself.

POPULATION Of
j. 6. 100000
Census Director Says Nation Can
Reach 1OO,O0O,OOO Only
With Philippines.

WASHINGTON. August 25-En-
thusiastic citizens. who have bean de,
clarino that the completion IF the prf $
ent census will show that the United
States has a population of 100 900 900
or thereahout, viii be disappo jnted
when the returns are made public, ac-
cording to E, Dana Durand, director of
the census.
Not counting the Philippines, if the
census shows population in the United
States proper of 81 900 600 the census
officials will be surprised.
This is only rough guess said
Director Durand tonight, 'but I be,
lieve that the returns will show a"total
population of 90,000,000. This, of
course, is exclusive of the Philippines;
it may run to 81 100000, but I doubt it.
If the figures for the Philippines were
included the total would reach up in
the 100 100000 mark.
~ expect the tabulation to be com
pleted by November -, and inlmedi
atelv afterward, we will announce the
verified figures for the entire country.
"'The net gain from immigration dur
ing the past ten years has not been
as large as might be supposed. This of
course reduced the total.
"For example, immigration from
1901 to 1907 into the United States was
only 6,219O00 in round numbers. OF
this number 1927 900 returned to the
countries from which they came, leav-
ing a total increase IN population from
immigration during these years of only
1922 900.
SO it can be seen that about Al per
cent of all immigrants in these years
added nothing to the total population.
"The figures for the three years from
1907 to 1910 show that $4,000 immi-
grants came into the United States and
790.S75 of them returned, leaving
for those years increased population
from immi grafton 1,7S5,351 persons. A
larger proportionate increase IN the
total population from immigration took
place in the last three years than in
the previous seven years.
''Taking the ten years net increase
it will be seen that approximately
100000 persons have been added to
the population of the country by immi-
grafton Since the last census possibly
500, 900 Of these have died, which would
leave 100000 net increase from i'm
migration to the country>s total popu.
lation in the last decade
eve have been surprised in the pop,
ulation of cities of 100000 and over.
The percentage of increase in such
cities has been about twenty. Whether
or not the country districts will show
such increase we do not know Some
believe that the cities increased pop
ulation has been drawn from the coun'
try. If the country districts show as
great increase as the cities of 100000
population and over then it is possible
that the total figure may reach the 81
100000 mark, but it is very doubtful. -
These figures are the first authentic
information concerning the total pop.
ulation of the country. Director Du-
rand has positively refused to give the
slightest intimation as to the way the
census has been running through the
country. The present interview, given
exclusively to the Call s Washington
correspondent, is the first one author
