From now on we can look for the usual
hatch of false alarms from the training
camns. IT is always the case. Some one
will start rumor that Johhsoh nos
broken a toe or that Jeffries has tacaeu
a mountain lion and had both his arms
chewed off, and thus they will continue.
But there is too much at stake for narm
to overtake either man through careless

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal. August 1.-The
Bulletin yesterday printed this telegram
from Col Theodore Roosevelt, which, 1t

forming him that his recent telegram to
Phillip A. Stanton concerning the guber-
material fight was being distorted:
"OYSTER BAY, n. Y. July 30, 1910
Fremont Older. San Francisco. CAL:
TT is simply nonsense to suppose that
my statement has any other than its face
value. 1t is impossible to twist it. and
it needs no supplementary statement
whatever of any kind or form. 1t was
he statement in the Johnson papers that
/ had sent Pinchot to speak for Johnson
which rendered my statement imperative
l refuse positively to make any state
ment in favor of Stanton, in spite of his
past services in the Japanese matter, and
it is equally impossible to make state
ment on the side of Johnson, though
fully appreciate Johnson's attitude. All
you have to do is to take my fiat state
ment Of yesterday, and you can construe
1t the only way 1t can possibly be con-
strued.

BOARD DECIDING FATE
OF NAVAL CRUISERS
Old Warships Columbia and Mime

PHILADELPHIA. August "A naval
board. headed by Rear Admiral Thomas
today began the task at the Philadelphia
navy yard Of passing upon the fate of
three cruisers which but q few years ago
were undisputed leaders in their classes
The vessels are the armored cruiser
Brooklyn and the protected cruisers Co.
lumbia and Minneapolis. built as the COM
merce destroyers of the navy. The three
cost over $S,5OO.00O. exclusive of their
armament. The Columbia and Minnea-
polis, in the opinion of officers at the
yard. are most in danger of being con-
signed to the junk pile. as they are in
bad shape.
The Brooklyn, Admiral Schleys flag
ship in the Spanish-American war and
the vessel which played a very active
part at the battle OF Santiago. is in better
shape and Is more likely to be ordered
overhauled and modernized.
The fate of several old monitors. in
Guiding the Miantonomoh, which also took
part in the Spanish war. will likewise be
decided. o

Militia Has Returned.

The state militia company of Marshall,
which was sent to the scene, has re-
turned.
Deputy Sheriff Reeves, upon his return
from Slocum, said: Il am positive that
the trouble between the whites and blacks
af Anderson county is at an end. 1t is
my further belief that no more than fif-
teen white men participated in the riot.
OF course there were probably hundred
or two hundred armed men in the COM
munity. but they were armed merely for
the purpose of protecting their homes and
Quelling such uprisings as might occur.
The great majority OF these men did not
reach the scene of the trouble"
A coroner's inquest over the eight ne
groes' bodies found returned verdict in
each case that the deceased came to his
death from a gunshot wound in the hands
of a person or persons unknown.

THINK CHICKENS MENACE
BRITISH WORRIED OVER
SPREAD OF TUBERCULOSIS. :
Department Of Agriculture Experts
Regard Danger in This Coun-
try as Remote.

Excitement over the possible spread Of
tuberculosis through chickens has been
created abroad. English papers have
taken up the subject and claim that
tuberculosis Is very common among
chickens, and that by allowing chickens
to run on the some pasture with dairy
cattle the disease is transferred to the
cattle.
Experiments have been made at the
Southgate School of Light Agriculture,
and in an interview DR.. H. Corner of
that institution said that the matter had
been brought to his attention through the
fact that there was no tuberculosis
among the cattle on the Island Of Jersey,
and that no chickens were allowed to run
on the pastures. The same he said was
true of the tuberculosis-free herd of
high grade cattle owned by the March
ioness' of Linlithgow. near Marlborough.
These cattle were finely bred and were
particularly liable to disease. They were
not allowed in company with the poultry
on the place, however, and mona Of them
had tuberculosis,

Supports Bovine Theory.

1t was found that the form of the
tubercle from chickens changed to the
mammal form after the mammals had
been innoculated with the disease, which
was in line with the belief long held In
America that bovine tuberculosis could
be impaired to human beings.
However, DIR. Washburn said that he
did not think the presence Of chickens on
the pasture eaten over by cattle would
have any effect in spreading the disease,
as light air would be apt to render the
germs inert before they could be taken
in by the cattle, and that this system
of infection would not be probable any
how There was no apparent danger or
chicken tuberculosis spreading In this
country, and 1t would be much simpler
and less expensive business to stamp 1t
out than it would be among cattle. How
that tuberculosis even among hogs and
cattle would be stamped out in this coun-
try in the course of time.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1910-08-02
Regards Danger Small.

When inquiry was made at the Depart
ment of Agriculture today as to whether
any attention had been paid to this source
of infection in this country, Dr. j. H..
Washburn of the bureau of animal in
dustry said that experiments had been
made and the conclusion reached that
the danger of infection from this source
was remote. He said that avian-tuber-
culosis. as the disease among chickens
was known. was not at all common in
this country. What there was of 1t
was more general on the Pacific coast,
while tuberculosis among cattle was more
common in the Atlantic states. He said
that the chief center Of chicken tuber-
culosis in this country was Oregon,
though cases had been discovered in New
York, Minnesota and California.
There was an outbreak of tuberculosis
among the hogs on the Oregon ranch
in question after some of them had
been allowed to feed on the chickens
that died of tuberculosis, and by expert
ments made in the department 1t was
found that the tuberculosis from the
fowls could be impaired to animals.

they are also trying to foment trouble

President Taft has been wise. He has

structive and upbuilding policies

Every good American citizen is loyal
to the flag and to what 1t represents, re-
CARELESS of religious belief, race, color or
previous condition of seryitude. We may
quarrel over political spoils and tear each
others hair on account of insurgency"
or something or other, but just let a
foreign power try to land on these
shores, and see how the people would
rally to the support of the government
and stand shoulder to shoulder to repel
the invader. Poor old Spain found how
that worked in 1898, and hasn't for
gotten it yet. Inthe early sixties the
North and the South joined in a four
year death grapple, but when William
Mckinley called for volunteers to go to
the aid OF bleeding Cuba, the first to re-
spond were the sons of the men who
tried TO wreck the Union in 1861. Ameri-
can citizens, all, are we. We have our
local differences but the old flag means
more to us then anything else. 1t
stands for human liberty and what goes
with it, and that's why SO many have
laid down their lives for it, and why al
are ready to make the sacrifice should
opportunity call.
