His Position in Jeopardy.

Rawn was an unwilling witness, whose
memory was defective. He denied that
he owned stock in the Blue Island Car
Company. He admitted that he or Presi-
dent Harahan gave orders for the re-
pairs. From the questions at the first
hearing 1t was apparent that the Illinois
Central lawyers had full knowledge of
the actors behind the scene, and that
Rawn fully realized that it was only a
question of hours before he would be
forced TO give up his railroad career
The tragedy came in the wake of ruined
homes, wrecked regulations. lost positions
and trips to Europe and other places of
immunity, which have marked the prog
ress o: the investigation. Rawn was the
highest official of the Illinois Central to
be involved Ten executives other than
signed or have been dismissed from the
Illinois Central since the car scandals be-
came public. Rawn carried $4,000 in
surance, most of ii accident. Under guard
of Pinkerton men, the -Rawn family pre-
serves it's Secluson.
"A police official declared that as far as
the Chicago police were concerned in the
investigation, the claim of relatives that
Rawn was the victim of burglar would
be dropped.
They said neighbors heard one shot,
said the acting chief. They saw no
one running away. The muzZle of the
revolver was covered with blood and the

FLY CRUSADE IS HOT
Hygienic L laboratory Publishes
Its Conclusions.
WAY TO PREVENT TYPHOID
Prevention of Access to Foodstuffs
and Control of Breeding
Places Advised.

I'm carrying out preventive measures
against typhoid fever the number of flies
should be lessened by a proper control Of
their breeding places and their access to
infectious matter and foodstuffs pre-
vented
This Is the conclusion stated IN re-
port Of the hygienic laboratory on the
subject Of 1.-The Origin and Prevalence of
Typhoid Fever in the District of Colum-
bia.' The report was prepared by Drs.
NJ. j. Rosenau, L. L. Lumsden and
Joseph H. Kastle, following an investiga-
tion in 1905.
Importance of Combating Flies.
In several features the report dwells
upon the Importance of combating flies
as means of prevention of typhoid fever
epidemic. 1t is pointed out that the
oothersome insects by carrying infection
easily be held responsible for much
human suffering and for many deaths
from typhoid.
The war upon flies this year is pushed
With great energy by the health depart
ment. Householders all over the city
are warned to SO screen the windows and
doors OF their homes that flies Will be
wholly prevented from gaining access to
the family dining room or to food pred
ucts either IN the process of preparation
for the table or i'll the process of con-
sumption.
Inspectors Of the health department VINO
are assigned to the markets and pro-
vision stores also report that the dealers
are observing the law which requires
meats. butter, fish and other foodstuffs
to be protected from flies by screens In
this way it is believed much danger or
carrying infection is opviated
Typhoid Is Less Prevalent.
In the way of results secured by this
unceaslnG war upon Tiies, aS well as
against other recognized carriers OF
typhoid infection. it is pointed out in
the health department these days, that
there is less typhoid fever in the Dis
urict of Columbia this year than in any
summer season for years past
Z During the first six months of 1909
there were reported total of 29U
cases Of typhoid. During that period
there were 40 deaths, thus showing a
death rate OF 1863 per cent. The death
rate for 1910, which was III per cent
for the six months ended June 30, was
slightly higher than in 1909, but the
total number of cases was 152, or only
a little more than one-half as many as
there were in the same portion of the
preceding year. There were twenty
seven deaths from typhoid fever in the
city during the first six months Of 1910.

Disregard of Agreement Alleged.

Subsequently 40 foreign leaders de-
parted, leaving the German societies, with
a total membership Of 5000. In the care
of German pastors. The authorities state
that in recent years the Mormons have
disregarded the understanding Of 1903,
and from time to time individual mis-
sionaries have been apprehended and ex-
PEELED. In such instances they have not
applied to the American embassy for
relief nor made a protest against their
expulsion.

Expulsion of Mormon Mission
aries From Germany.
POLICE BREAK UP MEETING
Alleged Disregard Of Agreement
Made Seven Years Ago.
OBJECTIONS TO THE TEACHINGS
Creed Regarded as Subversive OF
Morality and Order of De-
portation Issued.

BERLIN. July 22-Herr Dallwitz,
Prussian minister of the interior. upon
recommendation of the political police.
has signed orders for the expulsion of
twenty-one Mormon missionaries, most
of whom are Americans or Englishmen,
and they will be conducted to the from
tier today.
The missionaries had assembled from
various parts of Germany at Mormon
headquarters on the East Side to meet
Supt Mckay, an American usually resi-
dent in Switzerland. They were hold
ing service, when an agent Of the
political police, who was seated in the
audience, rose and declared the gather
ing dissolved.
All Placed in Arrest.
At the moment several members Of
the criminal police appeared and vir-
tually took the congregation in Gus
tody. The women were asked to leave
the place. and the men were examined
as to their nationality.
Those found to be German subjects
were released. while the others were
requested to accompany the officers to
the police presidency. There. after fur
ther examination, they were permitted
to go to their lodgings to await the is
suance Of writs for their expulsion.
The status of the Mormons in Germany
was taken up between the foreign Of
flee and the American embassy in 1908.
when the government took the position
that the teachings Of the missionaries
were subversfve of morality. 1t was
then arranged with the Mormon superin-
tendent. through the American embassy,
that all Mormon missionaries should
withdraw from the country within a
month. transferring the middle Euro
peon headquarters from Berlin to Switz-
erland.
