Through a discovery made by Bust er,'' large Maltese cat, the flea popu- lation of Murray Hill, l.. l., is fast dis appearing. Recently the animals own CT added vacuum cleaner to the household equipment. After pumping the dust out of her rugs she applied the nozzle playfully to the cats fur. At first Buster showed alarm, but, finding no damage followed, he lay still while receiving thorough cleans ing
 When the vacuum cleaner was brought into use few dayss later Buster" promptly ran to the nozzle, rubbing against it and purring until his coat received another going over. When the dust bag was emptied sev- eral fieas were seen struggling amid the debris in the ash can It was ob- served that the cat was less annoyed by his tiny enemies than formerly, and 1t became evident he attributed his re- lief to the vacuum cleaner.

 New York, July 24-Every police of ficer in Greater New York received orders today to search for Louise Swan, the 19-year-o1d girl whose dis appearance from her home seems like ly to prove fully as baffling mystery as did the vanishing of Dorothy Ar mold Systematic search by a corps of picked detectives has failed to re- veal any clue to the girls where abouts, and the police today abandon ed their original theory that she left home because she desired to become self supporting.
 There is now a theory that the girl has been decoyed to flat in the crim- hnal section and is now being held a prisoner. Every officer doing duty in khe' tenderloin has been given orders to Bearchv the resorts on his beat for traces of the girl. Mrs. Swan, moth Ter of the girl, is in a serious condition 6rom worry.

PACKERS BEHIND EFFORT TO GUST
 CHEMIST WILEY
(By Clyde H. Tavenner.)

Washington, July 24-A remarkable series of facts which have come to light within the last twenty-four hours indicate that packers of em- balmed beef are the influences that have been principally behind the plot to have Dr. H. w. Wiley busted from the public service.
 / Manufacturers of embllmed beef arc at present, by virtue of an order issued by the department of agriculture, per- mitted to use benzoate of sodas in whatever quantities they may desire. Dr. Wiley not only opposed the issu- ance of this order, maintaining that the preservative is decidedly harmful in it's effects upon the human system, but has worked untiringly to educate the people to the danger lurking in packed meats in which benzoate is used. The result is that several states have passed legislation absolutely for bidding the use of the drug in any quantity whatsoever. Therefore Dr. Wiley has become a standing menace to the embalmed beef industry. This man Wiley has got to go," was the edict that went out from the em- balmed meat manufacturers.
 :. When pr. Wiley held that benzoate of soda was harmful to the human system, the packers appealed to the Remssen referee board, especially packed with friends of the food dop- CTS, which board very promptly and obligfngly reversed Dr. Wiley, The board held that benzoate of soda in small quantities, specified as five tenths of one gram per day, was not injurious to healthy persons. But when the order was issued legalizing the use of benzoate, no limitation whatever was made as to the amount of the drug the packers might use.
 Remarkable circumstances attended the issuing of the order letting down the bars to the food dopers. The or- der was issued on March 3, 1909 and was placed in circulation March 4, the day President Taft went into of- flee. It was signed by George B. Cortelypu, Oscar s. Straus and James Wilson, three cabinet officers, as re- quired by law. Of the three men, two day and actually retired before the scope of their order became known.
 This order giving government sane tion to the use of a product of ben zoic acid meant that we were go- ing back 5000 years, for benzoin or it's products had not been used in the preservation of flesh since the Egyp- tions stopped embalming their dead.
 Chemist Floyd w. Robinson, one of Dr.. Wiley's prominent assistants, re- gently appeared as a witness against benzoate in an action brought by the StateRof Indiana to prevent the sale of foods containing benzoate, and be- fore Dr. Wiley had a chance to in tervene Robinson's dismissal "for the good of the service'' followed.
 '"F'ind the influence that was pow erful enough to have the three cab inet officers issue the order legalizing the doping of foods" says Dr. Wiley's friends, "and you will learn the iden- tity of the men who have ever since been plotting to have Dr. Wiley oust- ed.''

5000 Buildings Go By Incendiary Fire
 Al ConstantinopIe
Especial from United Press.)


 Constantinople, July 24-More than 5000 buildings were destroyed and many thousands of persons rendered homeless by an incendiary fire which started in the Stamboul, or native quarter of Constantinople, last night, and was not extinguished until early today. Cheftek Pasha, minister of war, and one of Turkeys most famous generals. was injured by falling beam while directing successful efforts to save the ministry of war building. The fire is said to have been started simultaneously in six places by enc mics of the present government
 The fires started shortly before mid- night and the flames were soon sweep ing through the native quarter, licking up the finsy wooden houses like straw.
 Great excitement prevailed in the crooked narrow streets. The fire de- partment, with its antiquated appar- atus, was ludicrously intellectual. For time the business section in the Galata district and the European quarter at Pera were threatened Wide lanes made by tearing down rows of frame buildings finally check ed the flames
 More than third of the native quarter and several stone government buildings were burned
