TELLS OF
RESULTS ATTAINED
BY YPASTEUR|ZAT|ON
At Berlin Conference He
Reads Report of Good
Accomplished Here.

That his pasteurized milk station in
washington furnished one OF the most
striking demonstrations Of the value of
pastcurization is the opinion OF Nathan
Straus.
A report on the work of the Washing
ton station was presented by Mr.. straus
before the third International Confer
ence for the Protection Of Infants, at
Berlin, this week
From records kept by the medical
director. DR., Louise Taylor Jones, Mr..
Straus showed that of the 506 babies
supplied with milk In the first six
months of the stations existence, 2S9
were IN when brought to the station.
Out of the total, but 81, or 10 per cent,
"of the SIS babies fed with the milk
for a month or more, long enough for
fair trial, only 20 died. This was 81
per cent OF the 1872 stil on the milk at
the end of six months, all were thriV-
iEg."
Mr.. Straus explained that none of the
babies that died were lost through In
testinal disorders or from infectious dis
eases. The period OF the observations
covered the hot months, q period espe-
cially hurtful to babies.
4 Mr.. Straus also quoted figures show
ing the work done during his twenty
years experience with pasteurized milk
laboratories in New York.
Stunning UP my twenty yearsI prao-
teal experience most conservatively,
he said, II can state with certainty that
excessive infantile mortality has been
checked wherever I have
supplied pasteurized modified milk, and
that the rate has been cut down at
least half the average for the preced-
ing five years"

Four Men Are Accused
Of Wrecking Fast Train

MIDDLETOWN, Conn. Sept. 12.-An-
tcrio Diorrio, Antonio Stefano, Giacomo
Ifsi, and Alfredo Pecchini, all CT this
city, have been arrested on a charge
of being responsible for the wrecking
of New York, New Haven and Hart
ford express train four miles below
here, on the night of August q, caus-
ing the death Of Abram P. Brown, Of
Hartford, and injuries to sixty other
passengers.
According to the railroad detectives a
dollhouse Of the company in Portland,
across the Connecticut river from here,
was broken into and two wrenches and
a claw bar stolen. The detectives allege
that on the night of the wreck the four
men rowed to the Scene of the wreck,
and while Pecc!lini kept watch the other
three took out the spikes from one OF
the rails, unbolted a fish-plate. and
propped up one end of the rail SO that
Instead of going over II the wheels Of
the engine would strike II and be de-
rallied.
AS a motive the detectives allege I.isi
had been discharged by the road and
looked for revenge and a chance to rob
the passengers. Diorri, at preesnt en-
ployed by the road, is alleged to have
some fancied grievance.
d. That no attempt was made to rob
passengers, the detectives claim, Is due
to the fact that only two cars went
down, and that too many injured pas
sengerS were around

FLOATING STRANDED
TORPEDO BOATS IS
PROBLEM FOR NAVY
Five Ships Ashore al
Charleston Being Saved
by Hydraulics.

The Navy Department Is facing a
problem in fits efforts to float the five
torpedo boats picked up by the recent
hurricane and lifted high and dry on
shore at the Charleston Navy Yard. AT
present these five vessels rest easily
forty feet from their docks.
torpedo boat cannot be picked up
by a derrick like a ton of stone, or
lumber. Neither can 1t be "Jacked" like
an iron fireproof safe. 1t is too big
and heavy to be handled when on dry
land. Skids even cannot be placed un-
der them because they cannot be lifted.
This makes the problem Of again float
ing the torpedo boats a serious one. A
scheme has been hit upon, however, by
the naval engineers at the Charleston
Navy Yard. They have decided to turn
powerful streams Of water upon the
earth beneath the vessels and literally
wash away a channel from the tempor-
airy resting place to tidewater.
, This will take time and lots of pump
Ing, but II seems to be the only way to
manage the situation without taking
the vessels to pieces. Already the
pumping process has begun and Navy
officials are watching the
results with keen interest

MaccabeeS Are Divided
On Increase in Rates

PORT. HURON, Mich, Sept. 12-The
special session of the great camp Of the
knights of the Modern Maccabees,
called to take action on the proposed
increase in assessment rates. opened to-
day with every prospect Of lively
meeting.
Like other fraternal insurance orders,
the Maccabees have reached that stage
of its career when an increase in rates
resulting from the maturity of the first
class of certificates issued 20 the early
members and carrying old age annuity
as well as death benefit.
A considerable element Of the men,
bership is strenuously opposed to the
increase in assessments. Their repre-
sentatives will introduce a resolution to
meet the loss not by a raise in rates,
but by abolishing a number OF highly
paid offices that are declared to be sine
cures and by otherwise reducing the ex-
penses of maintaining the order.
