SENSATIONAL ANNOUNCEMENT
COMES TODAY FROM ROOKIE
TELLER INSTITUTE OF MEDI-
CAL RESEARCH.

New York, April 1.-The effects
on the human system of the most
vicious poisons may be rendered per-
fectly harmless by simple surgical
expedient is the announcement soon
to be made by the Rockefeller insti-
tute of medical research.
So long as there is the faintest
heart beat it will be possible to save
anyone who has taken what is now
regarded as fatal dose of strych-
nine, morphine or other poisons.
BY the new treatment a steady sup
ply of air is forced through the trac-
hea, or windpipe, into the lungs,
through tube inserted either
through the mouth or through an
aperture cut in the winipipe.
To Dr. S. J. Meter goes the credit
for the discovery.

follower PRICE Of
UPPER BERIHS
COMMISSION TO RENDER DECI-
SION AFFECTING PULLMAN
CAR COMPANY-PROFITS ARE
TOO LARGE.

A Geographic report from the east
states that the interstate commerce
commission will render a decision
during the week compelling the Pull
man company to reduce the prices
charged by them for berths in their
cars. 1t is understood that after a
certain date, to be announced by the
commission in it's report, the Pull
man company will be forced to charge
less for upper berths than for lower
ones.
Railroad men in this city, who are
in close touch with the affairs Of the
Pullman company, do not look for
any reduction in the immediate flu:
ture. They point out that, even If
the commission makes this demand,
they must fix a certain date at least
40 or so days from the passing OF
the order, so that all the Offices may
be notified of the change in rates
and that new tickets may be issued
These men also declare that should
the commission issue such an order
the Pullman company will take the
matter into court, which will mean
that it will be upwards of year
before a final decision is reached by
the courts.
It is understood that the commits
sion has reached the decision par
TALLY as a result of the Pullman
company's official report. The show
ing from the company's report is that
the original 100000 capital stock
is now $100,000,000, but the entire
increase comes, not from additional
investments Of new capital by stock
holders, but by capitalizing earnings.
1t is declared that the Pullman rates
from st. Paul to the Pacific coast
could be cut in half and leave abun-
dant profits.

revolver during a hot quarrel and
pointed the weapon at Wallace, who
seized his arm. The two struggled and
Fricke was disarmed by A. Goldstein,
an employ of the company who went
TO help Wallace.
Leaving his revolver and Wallace in
tattered clothes behind, Fricke ran into
the street. He was arrested a few
minutes later by Detective Emigh.
who was detailed to find him when
Wallace made complaint. Bail was
set at 5000.
Wallace said that the charge of ex-
hibting a deadly weapon was erro-
neous. He declared that he will charge
the deputy constable with assault to
kill and endeavor to put the young
man in Jail long enough to make his
own life safe. He alleged a long feud
between himself and DIR. Fricke and
the physicians 20 year old son. The
Frickes owned stock in the Interlock-
ing stone company. Besides that they
were associated with Wallace in a
wireless telegraph company, and they
accused Wallace of holding up stock
belonging to them. Wallace told the
police today of two other encounters
he has had because of the business
rsiations. On one occasion, he said, he
knocked DIR. Fricke down twice during
row, and the physician is suing him
for $1,000 damages in consequence.

him this morning.
Wallace said he believed that young
Fricke had heard of this move and
went to the stone company office to
intimdate him: The young man wasted
little time, drawing his pistol soon
after he had entered the room.
At the police station young Fricke
pleaded with Captain of Detectives
Petersen to keep the incident from
becoming known to his mother, who, he
said. is dying.
IF she were not on her death bed"
calculated the young man, there
would be something doing"
Fricke told Petersen that Wallace
had withheld stock belonging to him,
and said that was the reason for his
anger.

to order the refunding to city property
owners of the additional 20 per cent in

blighting in spots and at his request
Bioletti came here to make an examin-

disease was prevalent throughout the

treatment are now being studied at

Schell said that while paralysis will
reduce the present crop, he does not
think it will permanently injure the

SPAIN AND THE VATICAN

To Americans it seems at first
glance that separation of church and
state in Spain ought to be an easy mat
ter, writes Henry Mann in the October
Columbian. And yet, when we turn
our optics in" upon ourselves, as But
Ter puts it in Hudibras, one can see
that the wrenching apart of ancient
ties between the people and their
clerical guides may be attended with d
great deal of pain and struggle and
hardship. It may not be as well known
as it ought to be that church and state
were not completely separated in the
United States until about 1880, when
the last vestige of compulsory support
of religious worship was wiped out in
Connecticut. and that, too, only after a
fierce conflict in which the advocates
of liberation were denounced in Ian
guage as harsh as any that ever
emanated from a seventeenth century
Puritan. It should be considered, in
studying the Spanish situation, that
Spain is in some respects still
medieval; that it took all the power
of an autocratic king to sever Eng
land from Rome, and that Scotland did
not yield at once to the impassioned
pleadings and forcible arguments of
Knox. The problem in Spain will not
be solved in a day. In her civil govern
ment Spain IS not medieval and mon
asteries cannot be seized, and monks
and nuns turned adrift by the fiat of
an arbitrary ruler or his minister
There are rights on both sides of the
argument. The indications are tina.
Spain will evolve from the turmoil
without revolution, that the Alfonso
monarchy will survive sustained by the
sober judgment of the majority of the
Spanish people, and that the Carlist
pretender, Don Jaime, will be disap-
pointed in his hope to climb over the
corpses of his countrymen to a blood
stained throne
