Science VS.. Life.

An officer Of the medical corps O..
the regular army has filed a protest
against the reduction OF the food OF
soldiers to what is termed scientific
basis The figures as to starches and
proteids ma! YORK cut in the labora-
tory, he says, but they fail to leave
satisfying feeling in the stomachs
of enlisted men
The conflict between science and
life is one Of the most Interesting
phenomena Of modern times. Things
have trick Of doing just so among
the test tubes and retorts. The chem
list makes a new steel that is harder
than any other ever discovered. The
assayer can save every trace Of gold
out of sample of ore. The food
specialist knows facts which are so
tremendous he has to have Ian
guage Of many jointed words to tell
about them. Yet the laboratory steel
and that produced by the same for
mula in the mills are often two very
different materials No stamp mill,
cyanide OR chloride process, or smell
ter, ever succeeded in taking all the
precious metal out Of ore. The hui
man body, in some irritating way OR
other, insists upon having something
more than pure nourishment. 1t has
become used to getting waste materi-
al also and won't be happy unless it

Mrs. Edward G. Price Had No
Thought of Evading Duty

The examination of the 1S pieces OF
baggage belonging to Mrs. Edward G.
Price. wife of millionaire Chicago
merchant, one of the passengers on the
world circnng tourist ship Cleveland
was ended by the customs appraisers
late yesterday afternoon. The resli L

Prices own declarstOry statement go:
: To have submitted an accurate dec
laratiOn to the appraisers. Mrs. Price
would have needed a book keeper soSt
the ship in addition to her maid and
chauffeur. Purchases made with
lavish hand for a period of over three
months were. entered to the best OF her
knowledge and recollection, the Gus
toms officials gallantly believe. They
state positively that there were no
false bottoms. false Innings or any other
means of obvious cOncealment discov-
cred Yet a large number. of her thou
sands of articles were not placed in
her declaration
Mrs. Price says that her laces were
bought in the lace making ports OF the
Mediterranean. her silks in India and
China and other valuables in unfre-
quented corners of lands of cheap labor.
But without the bills of sale to guide
them the appraisers estimated the
values from local experience at higher
figures than given in the statement.
Collector Stratton was unwilling to
make the report public yesterday He
submitted it to Chief Boarding officer
Charles Stephens for approval before
collecting the duties. stephens has
made it his policy to charge omissions
in the lists made out by the Cleveland's
passengers to oversight rather than
fraud as on the whole they are above
the average standard of travel honor
But should he consider that Mrs. Price
overwOrked her powers of fOrgetful-
ness he may recommend a penalty.

May eB Given Appointment

Opposed to Shaughnessy have been
many of the friends and supporters of
former Chief Dennis Sullivan. The
stand has been taken that the Shaugh-
messy administration has been carried
out with too little regard for the aims
OF the former chief and with too little
respect for his memory as an official.
Those who most strongly supported Sui
livan have not looked with favor upon
the methods with which Shaughnessy
has directed affairs. However, the
mayors intimation yesterday seems to
settle the question OF fire department
control, and Shaughnessys appoint
ment as actual chief seems more likely
at the hands OF the new board than his
dismissal from the berth of acting
chief
With all but single commission va
cancy disposed of, pending the settle
ment of the legal test of mayoral power,
and with the status of the fire chief
and park superintendent seemingly set
tied beyond question, present interest
centers on the office OF the city engt-
neer.
Russell l.. Dunn seems slated as Mars
den Manson's successor, though the
mayor positively refused yesterday to
give any hint as to his intentions in
this direction. He disposed of the mat
ter with the remark that the appoint
ment must come from the board or
public works. but 1T is known that the
new members of the board have con-
suited with him regarding the appoint
ment and that the case is already closed
save for the announcement of the
change.

Commisserates Manson

Dunn himself is of the opinion that
he is going to land the coveted prize.
He waved aside congratulations yes
terday only on the ground that they
were premature. and is still planning
ways of building the Hetch Hetchy
water system, which he formerly op-
posed, as a saving of s10.O00.00O on the
estimated cost. Dunn has forecasted
his coming assumption of official lau-
rels with the pledge to bring Hetch
Hetchy water into San Francisco in
three years and a half and with the
further promise. TO build the prize
street railroad of the country in Geary
street in record time and with rec
ord saving of expense.
Dunn is not looking upo the down
fall of Manson, however. with unal-
lcyed JOY. In fact, he was inclined
yesterday to comisserate the latter
upon the inexorable demands of fate,
when fate takes political form.
Il feel rather sorry for Manson" he
said, and then. referring to the board
of supervisors meeting at which Man
son appeared Tuesday night, he added
II tried to help him out up there last
night, you know.
The new commissioners are expected
to stand solidly for the change. In the
Office of the city engineer, though
Michael Casey the reappointed MEM
ber. has favored Manson to- a great
extent and may yet attempt to exert
his influence to save the latter from
dismissal.
William A. Newsom. the new COM
missioner appointed yesterday to com
plete the board of public works, which
will have the naming of the city en-
gireer. is retired contractor of con-
siderable experience in school and
wharf building and various forms of
