Brazilian officials Believe That the

Washington, July 1.-THE Brazilian
minister of agriculture has made ar
rangements to send to the United States
well known specialist in cotton grow
ing for the purpose of visiting the
southern states to study American
methods of cotton growing and obtain
number of American experts to go
to Brazil to further the interests OF
cotton cultivation in that country, ac-
cording to a report of United States
Consul General ]. j. Slechta of Rio
Janeiro.
1t is intended to have these American
experts to travel throughout the cot
ton growing section of Brazil and act
rs inspectors, and especially as in
structors.
Very strong representations have
been made to the Brazilian department
Of agriculture by influential men of the
cotton growing states In northern Bra

strate that il proper instruction for
the scientific training of cotton grow

would be greatly increased
Large areas of northern Brazil have
as their only source of wealth the pro-
duction of the cotton fields. and with
the development winch il sure 10 coine
with modern methods of culture, cotton
growing would become the third great
est industry of Brazil. The expert is
to give particular attention to irriga
ton as used in cotton growing mas
much as some of the best cotton grow
ing lands of Brazil require irrigation
to obtain the best results. In view OF
the fact that Brazil is probably the
only country other than the United
States. which possesses lands capable
of cotton production on a really large
scale, and this step Is of considerable
significance"

Reynolds and Cakes, the former with

the eave-in occurred. Reynolds was
precipitated into one Of the large sewers
that empties into the Ohio, scarcely two
blocks away. Cakes, who narrowly es-
capped, ran quickly and gave alarm,
returning in a short time with long
piece of hose. This he threw into the
sewer and although he could not see
Reynolds a vigorous Juggling on the
hose notified the rescuers that the man
was still alive. The men above ground
were preparing for heartily pull when
there was a further cave-in followed
by a muffled cry from Reynolds. A de-
tachment of the fire department ar
rived on the scene, but the continued
falling away of the ground made any
attempt at rescue hazardous.

lists here the big convention was finally
adjourned tonight with a ball While
much was accomplished that will have an
important bearing on the Zionist move

the healing Of differences between the
progressive and the conservative factions.
The compromise was indicated in the Sc
lection of an executive committee of %
members, some from each branch, which
will carry on the work of the federation.
There will be no president, vice presi-
dent or secretary elected this year, these
positions being done away with under
the new constitution by honorary posi-
tons taking their places. Although Harry
Friedenwald was elected honorary pres-
dent he will take little active part in
the executive work on account of the

nothing.
From the date of adjournment of the

was stated last night that the burned
building contained almost all the patterns
of the company and that these had been

that they may be a total loss. The loss
cannot be estimated until later, when the
real condition of the patterns is ascer-

made of very thin metal and warp very

REPORTS OF ILLNESS
AMONG SOLDIERS
Two of the Men Are Said to
Have Died in Camp
MANY IN THE HOSPITAL
Conditions Are Bad in the Camp at
Chickamauga Owing to the Heavy
Rains and Fever Is Reported
Among the Soldiers
BY JOSEPH n. CURTIS

Chattanooga, Tenn, July 6-(SpeciaD-
Startling reports were circulated in the
city late this afternoon to the effect that
two mlitiamen-one from Florida and
one from Mississippi-had died at Chicka-
manga park, and that an epid OF
malaria or typhoid fever was imminent
Careful investigation at the places
where such news would arise failed to
affirm the reports concerning the death
of the two soldiers. Officers of the Flor
ida and Mississippi troops were very
warm in the denial of the story.
However, it is said that eleven men
from the Florida commands were taken
to the camp hospital today. and another
man, said to have typhoid fever brought
to the hospital at FIT Oglethorpe, There
is also said to be considerable sickness
among the Mississippi troopers The facts
are being carefully guarded by the Of
ficers, and no names at all are obtain
able.
Because of the heavy rains for the
past two weeks, the conditions at the
park are exceedingly bad. 1t is sail that
the militiamen have had to sleep in the
mud, and undergo similar hardships. II
is not believed that typhoid fever, II
there is such in the camp, has started
from conditions there. In the first place
all meals are prepared in screened
houses, and the drinking water has been
thoroughly tested.
II there are any cases of typhoid, they
started before the soldiers reached
Chickamauga, Officers of the medical
corps say that there is no chance for
an epidemic of typhoid, but they do
admit that the present conditions may
result in considerable malaria fever.
The enlisted men, a majority of whom
are clerks, office men and others not
prepared for the life of soldier I'M
der disagreable conditions, claim that
the regular army officers are working
them overtime. They say that they are
substituting many tedious and hard
drills for the army problems which have
been prevented by the frequent rains.
and there is general discomfort among
the soldiers because of the conditions
There was more rain this afternoon.
and the conditions are steadily growing
worse SO far as the mud and dampness
is concerned. There was considerabl BILE
drilling during the day.
