NEW STATE HEALTH
REGULATIONS ISSUED
Special Rules Have Added Value on
Account of the Cholera
Menace.


RICHMOND, VA. Aug. 23.-The
state department of health today be
gan the distribution of the new rules
and regulations for the projection OF
the public health. These regulations
which were authorized by the last
assembly and approved by the state
board of health are in pamphlet form
and will be circulated as widely as
+, possible. -
According TO prominent health Of
| fetal. the department i'm issuing these
| regulations aims to give the greatest
, possible protection to the public with
, the least eNacting demands on private
citizens. Most OF the regulations re
/ late to the sanitation of railroad cars
, stations, schools and churches, while
others refer 10 quarantine and isola-
ton. The boards of health have pun.
tive powers for the enforcement OF
| these regulations. but it is generally
! thought that the justice of the regula-
tons will so appeal to the people OF
the State that few prosecutions for
failure TO comply with the regulations
will be necessary.
All of the new rules become eff
fectiye September |. and will be rigid
~ enforced after that date. but the
, special regulations for the prevention
Of typhoid fever and hookworm dis
ease. requiring the construction of
sanitary toilets do not become eff
feetive until January /, in order that
all may have ample time to make
the necessary changes in their out
buildings.
An added interest is given the pro-
mitigation of these rules at this time
by the fact that the cholera epidemic
which is threatening Italy and ravag-
ing Russia may possibly geach this
country. Should cholera come to
America" said a health department
officer today" it will be found that
the safety of the people depends upon
rigid adherence TO such rules as those
isssed today. These rules are as
good protection against cholera as
they are against typhoid fever, and
their enforcement gives as much pro-
lection against the great scourge Of
the Orient as against the white plague
OF the West"

enough strength TO create a deadlock

night Mr. Maynards name had been
proposed along with various others,
aud finally, when daylight was at hand,
Mr.. Tfehy threw the Norfolk delega-
ton to the Portsmouth man and gave
him the nomination.
It will be remembered that Walter
c. Kelley. since become famous on the
vaudeville stage at home and abroad
as the Virginia Judge was a candi-
date for congressional honors in this
convention. Kelly. who was quite
prominent in local politics in the good
cid days" won the Newport News dele
cation over A. A. Moss. who was
mayor then, and went into the meeting
with a silk hat on the side of his
head. speech up his sleeve and n
bunch Of delegates at his back.

district, Newport News has made
radical changes in her political meth

Trade on Market is of Limited
value.
POLITICS STRONG FACTOR
Announcement That Further Tariff
Revision is Likely Has Depressing
Effect on the Exchange-Quarrel
Between Republican Factions.
CBy Associated Press)

NEW YORK, Aug. 24.-With trad
ing in very limited volume today's
stock market was at times subjected
to considerable pressure and the out
come left prices of some of the more
active issues from l to 2 points low
Ell. Much of the pressure seemed to
cmanate from the short interest,
which sold heavily at the outcome
end forced stocks to a level where
further liquidation was imminent.
Events dealing with the securities
market covered a wide range and
embraced further proof of dizziness in
Industrial lines. as well as an ex-
treme likelihood of a further tariff
revision. Although il is the avowed
purpose of the administration to eff
feet this revision with a modicum Of
disturbance to the business interests
of the country, Wall street did not
take kindly to the program and mani
tested its dispiessure by selling
stocks, first in London and then
here.
The open quarrel between the so
called regulars and progressiyes Of
the Republican party in this State
helped to unsettle conditions mas
much as il now seems almost certain
that the fight will partake of much
personal bitterness on both sides and
may be carried into other parts of the
country.
The most encouraging news of the
day was that the strike of the work
ers employed by the American Sheet
4 Tin Plate Company had GENE to an
end.
This. however. was neutralized by
persistent rumors of further stagna-
iron trade. An official estimate of
the wheat and oats crops in Western
Canada fixed the combined weld at
100. 900 900 bushels. and was followed
by a sharp decline in Canadian Pacific
shares.
