GANGRENIOUS ERG0TISM

Of bread made from spoiled rye. Tho
disease often occurs in widespread cpl

is sometimes as high as 40 per cent
According to physicians. parasitic fun

wheat and rye and eaten in bread so
affects the grain that as much as 10
per cent Of the meat may consist OF
pure ergort. A family OF five persons
has been stricken by the disease In Har-
lem and two are now at the J. Hood
Wright hospital. Amputation may be
NECESSARY to save their lives. The dis
ease first was noticed in Kath crime and
Jennie Florence, daughters of a tunnel
worker. 1t appeared in the form Of
black spots on Katherlne's feet and left
ear and Jennie's right foot. The disease
spread rapidly and on August 20 the
other three members OF the family were
attacked

P|NCHOT Says FIRES
WERE UNNECESSARY
Scores Hepburn, Carter and
MendeII for Their Failure to
Support Forest Ranger Bills

WASHINGTON, Aug. 26.-Gifford
Pinchot, of the National Conservation as
ISOLATION, and former head of the gov
sued today. holds that the loss Of prop
erty and life in the recent and present
forest fires was unnecessary. So
The disastrous result, he says. are
traceable to the unpreparednes to deal
with the are situation. He scores MEM
bers of congress who have opposed APP
preparations for the proper equipment OF
forest rangers, and in that connection,
names Senator Hepburn, of Idaho, whose
home town, WalIaceh Idaho, suffered Sc
rious loss; Senator Carter, of Montana.
and Representative Mondell, OF Wyo-
ming The statement follows:
II am proud of the splendid work the
men of the forest service have been do
ing against the western forest fires
Many of them have given their lives TO
protect the homes of settlers and the for
ests on which the prosperity Of the west
ern people depend. To my mind, their
conduct is beyond ali praise.
Forest fires are preventable. 1t Is
a good thing for US to remember at this
time that nearly or quite all OF the
loss. suffering and death these fires
have caused, is wholly unnecessary. A
a thing a a fire in tire city. There is
a thing as a fire in the city. The fire
department Of every city is organized
with the prime idea of getting to the lie
when 1t is young. So with forest fires.
The time to conquer them is before they
grow strong. If a forest is equipped
with roads. trails, telephone lines and
a reasonable number of men for patrol.
there is no more likelihood that great
fires will be able to get started than
there Is that great conflagrations like
the Chicago fire will get started IN a
city with n modern fire department
Under rare circumstances they may, but
the chances are against II.
THE forest service has done wonders
with its handful of devoted men. 1t
las put out every year many thousands.
of small fires any one of which under
favorable conditions might have develop
ed into a conflagration which 10000
men could not stop. This year, because
of the great drought, the worst In much
of the west for more than 20 years.
there were too many fires and too few
rangers.
The men in congress like Hepburn,
Carter and Mondell, who have made light
of the efforts of the forest service to
prepare itself to prevent just such ca
lamity as this, have in effect been fight
ing on the side of the fires against the
general welfare If even a small frac-
ton of the loss from the present fires
had been expended in additional patrol
and preventive equipment, some or per-
haps nearly all of the loss could have
been avoided"

said Governor Hoke Smith this morning.
IT haven't yet been able to read all of
the congratulatory messages I have re-
reived from all sections of the country,
although 1 have sat up every night until
II o'clock reading them.
"I have received upwars of 5000 letters

my personal attention. I wish to state,
however. that owing to the large number
that have. come and other duties that de-
mand my attention, will not be able to
give these congratulatory messages the
prompt acknowledgment they deserve.
am deeply appreciative of the messages
The figures presented in The Journal
yesterday, giving the convention and
popular vote of Smith and Brown were
accurate, so far as can be ascertained.
1t is believed the official consolidation, to
be made by the state convention, will
verify The Journals announcement.
HOW VOTE STANDS.
Governor Smiths popular majority was
4,1e9. His popular vote aggregated 6,6SS.
and the popular vote OF Governor Brown
was 90, 1853.
Governor Smith will have an even 100
majority in the convention. His voting
strength will be ga as against Governor
Browns convention strength of 1S4 votes.
The popular and convention votes Of
the two candidates may be slightly
changed as a result of the Gilmer county
contest. 1t is alleged that 1856 illegal
yates urera cast for Governor Brown. II
this be true. then Gilmer county really
gave Mr.. Smith a majority of log popular
votes, which will entitle him to her two
votes in the convention. II the contest
is sustained on it's merits, he will have
1876 votes in the convention against 132
for Governor Brown. '.
The county chairmen are, 1t is stated,
naming delegates to the convention In ac-
cordance with the rules, which require
that the delegates be chosen from among
the supporters of the successful candi-

JAPAN WILL ANNOUNCE
K0REA's ANNEXATION
Every Effort Will BE Made to
Make Koreans Welcome
Japan'S Rule
Aug. N.-Lietuenant

SEOUL. Korea. Aug. z7.-Lietuenant
General TerauchL Japanese resident
general in Korea, and negotiator OF the
convention OF annexation. which it may
be stated. will be officially promulgated
next Monday said today in a statement to
correspondent of the Associated Press
regarding the annexation:
NO stone viii be left unturned to make
the Koreans and the world feel that
Japan's rule in Korea is benefcent
thing. II viii and must imply no degra-
dalton for the natives. who under the
annexation. will enjoy exactly the same
rights as the Japanese. 1t Is the wish
and command OF the emperor OF Japan
that every effort be made to make the
Koreans feel no humiliation but rather
relief at the annexation.
The policy OF japan. in administering
the new portion OF the empire, will be
directed toward a steady Improvement
Of conditions and the development OF
the resources Of Korea"
TARIFF TO CONTINUE.
IL may be stated with authority that
although the. treaties OF Korea with for
eign powers lapse with the annexation,
the present customs tariff OF Korea,
which is much lower than that of Japan.
viii be continued for an indefinite period
under japanese rule. -...-,
Interesting details OF the negotiations
leading to the annexation are made pub
lie The assent Of Emperor Yi-Syek and
OF his predecessor Yi-Heui, to the an
nexation. was given willingly, It is, stat
ed, the only hesitation shown when the
terms were beoing discussed being in re-
gard to the titles which will hereafter be
borne by the former emperors. The
original japanese terms proposed the IT,
tie Of grand duke. but the emperor OF
Korea insisted upon being styled the
wrang' or king, TO which japan assent
ed The princesses Of the Korean impe-
rial house would, IL was conceded, be
treated as japanese princesses and an
annuity OF $4,000 was granted them. The
royal family will be allowed to reside
where they please and will probably re-
main In Korea.
KOREANS TO BE PEERS.
Members OF the imperial family and
some OF the high dignitaries OF the king
dom win be created peers OF the Japan
csc empire, substantial grants OF money
being awarded to them. Koreans will
also be appointed privy councillors.
The upper classes OF the Koreans are
now generally acquainted with the facts
Of the annexation and appear satisfied
with II. The attitude OF the residents
in general Is regarded as generous and
no apprehension OF protest or disturb
ance when the details OF the annexation
are published is entertained. These will
not be promulgated before August 20.
II Is expected that Resident General Te-
rachi VIII remain in Korea as governor
general for several months. after which
he will probably be succeeded by Baron
simpei Goto. japanese minister of COM
munications.

ROOSEVELT DENOUNCED
BY WILLIAM BARNES
Mr.. Barnes Says People Need
a Rest From "Such DEM
agogueS" :

NEW YORK, August TT would
suggest that Mr.. Woodruff again read
President Taft's letter to me of August
20"
Urged throughout the day to make a
statament, this was all Lloyd c. Girls
com, chairman of the New York. repub-
-lican county committee, would say in
comment on State Chairman Woodruff's
statements. in which Mr.. Woodruff said
he was ignorant of any plan to present
Theodore Roosevelt's name before the re-
cent state committee meeting for tenn
porary chairman OF the state conven-
ton.
Mr.. Woodruff did not amplify on mis-
statement yesterday, but William
Barnes, Jr.. of Albany, was more loqua-
cious. He declared that the people
want a rest"
What the people of the state want
now is to be let alone said Mr.. Barnes.
Business interests are being put In
bad way by this wanton political agita-
ton. People want to conserve their
business interests, and do not want
them destroyed by political demagogues.
The business interests of the state are
tired of facing chaos. They don't know
where the next blow is coming from nor
who is to deliver 1t.
II regret the present controversy, as
II means 1t will be almost impossible to
conciliate the warning factions after the
convention. Personally / am against
making the pet theories Of demagogues
political issues. Roosevelt says he Is
against crooks. So am ], and so is every
honest man. He is hardly helping the
party by the course he is taking, but
he is getting the personal advertisement
that he so much DESIRES.
None of the ''old guard leaders as
sembled at the headquarters here had
any comment to make on Colonel Rocse-
velt's speech at Carroll, Iowa, in which
he declared war on the bosses"
