ANOTHER UPRISING
SEEN IN MEXICO
Well Mounted Army of 1000
Takes Possession of Town.

Monterey. July 9.-Much significance IS
attached in political circles here to the
reports that have Just been received Of a
revolutionary movement that has been
set on foot in the state Of Chiapas. DIS
patches from San Cristobal, capital OF
that state, say q rebel force of moro
than 1000 men has been organized to op-
pose the authority of the Maderist gov
eminent. This army is we'll armed and
mounted and was recruited along the
Guatemala border. 1t is commanded by
Jose Espinosa Torres.
At the head of his rebel force Torres
took possession OF the town of San Girls
tobal and marching TO the residence OF
Provisional Governor Rainaldo Gordill0
Leon. demanded the latter's immediate
resignation, which was complied with.
Whether the Torres uprising is backed
by the national political interest or Is
merely local in its character IS not as
yet publically known. The fact that
southeastern Mexico, embracing the State
of Chiapas, Vera Cruz, and Oaxaca were
loyal to the Diaz administration during
the recent rebellion. lends Importance to
uprisings against the present government
in that quarter.
Rioting at San MiguI de AIIende to-day
resulted in twenty-one being killed. Thir-
teen were killed and eighteen wounded at
the town of Ocotlan. Opposition to Ma
dero caused both disturbances.

RACE OF PERFECT
MEN YET POSSIBLE
Harvard Professor Fears Re-

Special to The Washington Herald.

Special to The Washington Herald
Cambridge, Mass, July e.-Dr. William
c. Farrabee, professor of anthropology at
Harvard, fosters a statement that the
United States would have led in the max
ing OF a race of men and women both
physically and mentally fit II the Amer
lean authorities had not let the bars
down to immigrants.
He AYERS still further that II this
promiscuous importation OF foreigners is
stopped the day is not too late for the
perfect race he believes in. DR.. Farra-
bee says the fact remains that to-day
the United States is suffering with the
unfit and the degenerate. both native and
foreign born.
I'VE have had an unexampled oppor-
tunity here in America to produce a
perfect race of men and women" says
he. IF we had been more careful as
to the immigrants we admitted We could
have insured an addition of nearly per-
feet people. Those immigrants Of a
couple OF generations ago who were not

MILLENNIUM
is SEEN BY JUDGE GARY
Cooperation of Steel Manufacturers Greatest Peace
Movement of Century, Says American.

liken the functions of the International
association of steel industries to that Of
a bar association. Its purposes are Of
the same order and it's powers are not
greater. The association will do great
good for the industrial world generally
and especially as concerns the relation
of employer and employe. A standard
will be set for dealing with workmen and
determining how they shall be best
housed and control the sanitary condi-
tions under which they will work. This
being the worlds standard, you can count
upon It as being the highest, and It will
have an influence upon provisions made
by employers of labor the world over.
This steel congress to my mind is
long step toward universal peace. don't
want to get in too deep water, but really
think this will stop war. To-day 1t is
not so much a question of honor as 1t is
one Of dollars and commerce, If it would
have the power to stay the hand Of the
politician who would destroy it. The steel
industry is the most important in the
world, and by this new international as
sociation will be so closely allied to the
commerce of the world that it will WELD a
mighty hand in the politics Of the world,
and will have influence enough to mega
tive any proposed action which is apt to
destroy a nations basis of prosperity
Again, this congress has accomplished
wonderful thing in effecting an arrange
ment to standardize the steel products of
world. World standard sizes and specif-
cations will do away with the thousand
and one petty annoyances and expenses
in the steel trade. 1t means a saving in
the cost OF production as we'll as the cost
of machinery. You can say that 1 am alb
solutely satisfied with the results OF the
congress and see how an immense amount
of good will result from it,

condition of John w. Gates, who is I'll at

death is certain for babies without cool
milk.
What was considered a remarkable fea-
ture of the hot wave was that the Gulf
States were not materially affected, the
normal summer temperatures prevailing
in the cities in the far South. Mobile was
more comfortable place of residence
last week than was Boston, while Chi
cago. Philadelphia and New York would
have been willing to exchange with New
Orleans.
Despite the general belief the hot wave
of last week, while 1t takes an historic
place in the meteorological records Of the
country, was in many respects exceeded
by the remarkable spell of hot weather
in July, 1901. During that month the
mercury went above 100 degrees 10 times
in Kansas City, Il times in st. Louis, Is
times in Wichita, hans; II times in Keo-
kuk, Iowa: times in Baltimore and
twice in Philadelphia, Washington, and
Chicago.
Another famous heated term was in
August, 1900, when there were twenty
four days when the maximum tempera-
ture was above 80. Thirteen times in
this city the mercury went above that
figure, seventeen times in Baltimore and
Washington, ten times in Chicago. and
fifteen times in Cincinnati.
But it is not necessary to go as far
back as 1900 and 1901. June of the pres
ent year made quite a remarkable record
for high temperatures. Here are a few
for the figures of last month; June and
Z, Oklahoma City. 100; June 9. Des Moines,
100; June %, North Platte, Nebr., 1O4,
while throughout the Middle West the
mercury slid above the 100 mark on seven
days Of the month.
Another period of high temperatures
occurred in August. 1893 when within
three weeks, according to the Depart
ment OF Agriculture. 2,O36 persons died
from heat stroke.
The official record for the United
States is held by Death Valley, Cal. The
station was only kept there one year
1s91-when the highest temperature
was 1872. Weather Bureau officials say
that there is no doubt that the mer-
curry registers even higher than that
almost every summer.

Special Cable to The Washington Herald
Paris, July 9-"If it doesn't mean the
dawn of an Industrial millennius, 1t is at
least the twilight of a new and better
era for the iron and steel industries OF
the world and all people connected with
them" So said Judge E. H. Gary in an
swer to a question as to just what the
worlds steel congress means.
Judge Gary has arrived at the Hotel
Ritz in automobile from Brussels, where
he had been attending the congress. He
was most enthusiastic in expressing his
satisfaction at the results accomplished
by the congress. He said:
Twenty years ago such convention
working in absolute harmony and unity
of purpose would not have been possible.
At that time the idea of 120 men repre-
senting the iron and steel industry In
every steel producing country In the
world getting together and agreeing upon
even any one point would have been pre-
MYSTERIOUS. The convention just closed
showed a unanimity OF purpose and de-
sire for cooperation that surprised even
the most sanguine of US.
Then this is in the nature OF the inter-
national trust, is it?" the correspondent
asked.
Not at ALL" answered Judge Gary.
There IS not the least semblance to
so-call,d trust 1 should call the present
congress a combination in friendly asso-
ciation OF steel and iron manufacturers
for the purposes of advancement and
better mutual understanding of all Ques-
tons of economical, ethical or sociological
m steel ".
The questions of regulation OF prices
distribution Of territory. or attempting
the circumvention of the tarin laws. as
you state it have no more part IN
the congress than a bar association
formed by attorneys controls the indi-
vidual actions of it's members or regu-
Iates the fees they may charge.

KINGS CHAPEL LIBRARY
BOUGHT BY ATHENEUM
Oldest Collection of Books in America Sent from
England to Trinity Church in 1893.

Baptismal Contract, as there were, he
claimed, 10000 boys in England Of the
proper age for baptism. OF course, each
of these boys would buy a copy of his
book; he would sell them at shilling and
sixpence, of which sixpence would be
profit, and with this e1,oO0 he would put
libraries in the poorest parishes in the
country.
And he carried out this scheme, raising
money enough to purchase over sixty
parish libraries.
In 1880 he was appointed "commissary''
to the Church OF England churches in
Maryland, and as the ministers needed
libraries in America he supplied them.
In a few months he sent to America
thirty collections, most Of them to Mary
land, but one was sent to Trinity Church
in Now York.

it did cause from between 5000 and
1000 shares of stock to be sold at the
market price here by European operators.
On the following day calmness pre-
vailed in the European financial capitals
and the heat and drought over the West
were broken. There were showers not
only in all parts of the corn belt but in
many sections Of the South. Cotton and
wheat fell as sharply as they advanced
on the day previous and the stock market
recovered even more briskly. 1t was
clear that actual owners OF securities
were not inclined to sell them upon small
provocation and that they had learned
to accept at their proper value the ex-
travagant reports of agricultural dam
age sent out by professional crop killers.
The cotton fields, which were stripped
bare of their produce by spectators for
the rise in May, progressed so favorably
last month that the government places
the present prospect of the cotton crop
as the largest on record. Last week s
showers in the South therefore caused
the cotton options to tumble much more
rapidly than did those of corn and wheat,
and IL may be that the small group OF
spectators who have for some time
back tried to hold up the price OF cotton
against the force OF natural conditions
will have cause to sorely repent Of their
efforts
Consumption Increasing Fast.
They must already be heavy losers. AT
the same time, however, 1t is to be
pointed out that in all probability the
average price range of cotton will stand
faIrIyy bi1b for SavaraI yearS IN cOTna The
worlds consumption Of cotton has in
creased faster than the production of the
commodity and people who use the ar
ticle must expect to pay more for 1t than
they did in the last decade. This de-
veIopment cannot fail to be Of peculiar
and extraordinary advantage to our
country.
1t means that for an indefinite time
to come the United States in its owner
ship Of lands producing 75 per cent Of the
worlds supply of cotton is in possession
Of the greatest and most profitable nat
ural monopoly on the face of the globe;
and there are many good Judges Of busi-
ness affairs who believe that the section
of our country in which riches will &C
cumulate quicker than any other in the
days Immediately at hand will be the
South.
Europe's political troubles, although
still keeping up an undertone of grum-
bling, nevertheless decidedly dwindled as
the week ended, and besides the feeling
of renewed hopefulness concerning the
crops. sentiment was cheered by trust

TWENTY SIX BABIES
DIED IN TORRID WAVE
Diseases Due to Heat Are Fatal to Seventeen White
and Nine Colored Infants

The death list for Washington for the
week ending July 9. as given out by the
health board, was made up largely of
babies one year old and under
Summer maladies. due TO heat, which
so often prove fatal to infants, are given
as the cause of the deaths. According
to the record, there were twenty-six
deaths of infants reported during the
week, and of these seventeen were white
infants and nine eolored.
The board of health has issued num-
ber of "don'tsH for the baby and
"don'ts" for the mothers. They may be
had at the health department for the
asking.
There are numerous causes for the
deaths reported last week. most common
being cholera infantum, gastro-entritis.
summer diarrhea, and other stomach
troubles and heat prostrations.
Cautious advice is given by the de-
partment regarding the milk fed to in
fants. which in the summer months
