DIR. BAHNSEN In REPORT
ON CATTLE in GEORGIA
He Says Many Afflicted With
tuberculosis

Twenty per cent. of the dairying
herds of cattle of Georgia are infect
ed with tuberculosis, according to
a report that has been prepared b.
Dr P. f. Bahnsen, of Americas, state
veterinarian, and five per cent. of the
tuberculosis among children is caused
by drinking milk from tubercular
COWS
He urges that the state make eff
forts TO suppress or at least check
tub rtulosis among cattle DR., Balm
sen wishes it to be made a state Of
Tense for tubercular cattle to be used
in dairies. and he wishes it to be re-
CURED that no cattle except steesr
for feeders, and cattle for immediate
slaughter be shipped into the state UNI
til they have been tested for tubercu,
losis
DR.. Bahnsen thinks that the slaugh-
ter of animals that have reacted TO
the tuberculin test should be restricted
to slaughter houses that are under
veterinary inspection.

IBATTLESHIP SHOWED
BADLY SHATTERED HULL
Damage Worse Than Was
Supposed

Havana, June 16.-That the shatter-
ing of the hull Of the battleship Maine
is evidently far greater than supposed
was revealed this afternoon as a re-
suit of a superficial observation made
possible by the lowering of the water
level in the Golfer dam to depth of
seven feet.
On account Of this revelation all
plans for dealing with the ultimate
removal of the hulk have become
merely conjectural until more water
has been pumped out. AS the water
receded today every successive foot
revealed worse and worse conditions
forward of amdships. That part
was subjected to the main force of
the explosion
The bow section is still nearly twen-
ty feet below the surface and here it
lis believed the destruction will be
found to have been even more com
plete.
Col. Black of the engineer corps said
this evening he expected to lower the
water total depth of IS or 20 feet
within three or four days. This would
render possible fairly complete ex
ploration of all portions of the ship
where men We're likely to have been on
the night of the disaster, except tle
bow.

SOUTHERN SENATORS
OPPOSE FORCE BILL
Want No LOOphOlG For Such
Measure

Washington, D. c., June 16.-Not-
withstanding they based their opposi-
ton to the Bristow amendment, to the
resolution providing for the election Of
United States senators by direct vo.e
of the people, on the ground that it
would permit federal interference in
states having negro Acknowledgement
laws, many of the Southern senators
are receiving inquiries as to its eff
feet.
Most of the replies, along the same
line as the speeches, indicate appre-
hension that in case the amendment is
engrafted into the constitution as
amended by Mr. Bristow it might re-
suit in renewed attempts to enact such
| Legislation as the force bill of TWEEN
t. years ago. AS the bill passed the
house, it vested complete control of
senatorial elections in the various
state legislatures. The Bristow pro-
| NISlOl hIiOChS Oul lIll SSCllOu ttliu
gives congress the same control in the
election of senators by popular vote
that it now has over their election by
the state legislators, and that it has
over the election of members of the
National House of Representatives
1t is contended that under this au
thority, if it saw fit, congress could
appoint federal registrars and super
visors and enforce their DEGREES with
troops, if necessary. 1t is admitted
generally that the possibility of the
exercise of such power is remote, but
those who opposed the amendment
contend that the risk should not lie
taken even remotely.

BILE turn of Georgia politics which IS
being discussed here.
Judge Brand has stated that he
might get into the race; that he has
received letters from friends, par
tial friends" he puts it, urging him
to allow the use of his name, pledging
their support and expressing the belief
that as his conduct as judge has been
vigorous and now well known to the
state, this will be powerfully in his
favor.
Judge Brand states that he has re-
piled to a number in effect that he
has a position which requires much
thought and work; that he has his
hands full; that the time will be too
short to get before the people, and
that he has not considered the propo-
sition. However, from twenty-five or
thirty counties have come letters to
the judge, and he has been forced to
consider the possibility of such a
step. There are prominent citizens
from all sections of the state in at
tendance on the meeting of the trus-
tees of the University and the State
College of Agriculture, and they are
interested in the possibility of Judge
Brands entry into state politics.
