to BE Renewed.

Hankow.-SeVen hundred imperial
killed and wounded in fierce
and indecisiye battle before the walls
of Hankow. The insurgents to the
number of 1000 attacked the investing
government forces which arrived
from Peking and the fighting con-
tinued all day. The troops on both
sides fought with great bravery. The
rebels made repeated bayonet
charges when their ammunition failed.
A squadron of Chinese warships an
chored in the harbor Of Hankow
turned its guns on the rebel positions,
but was unable to do much damage on
account Of orders to respect the for
eign concessions.
The battle took place on the north
bank of the Han river. Just west OF
Hankow, and was indscisive. The
revolutionists temporarily drove the
imperial troops back from their posi-.
lions and damaged the gunboats. but
In doing 80 exhausted their rife am
intuition and we're compelled to re-
tire to their base at WI Chang.
Observers say that the engagement
was fair fight About 1000 were en-.
gagged on each side.
Early In the engagement Admiral
Sab. commanding the Chinese war
ships. ordered men landed t. support
the troops. The rebels. on observing
this. directed a hot fire on the blue
jackets and on the warships them
selves from artillery and field guns
that had during the night been placed
on the WI Chang bank OF the river.
Admiral Sab retaliated with hot
fire upon the rebel field pieces and
for a time shells fell thick. Many of
the shots endangered the eastern
limits OF thS concessions and II was
plain that the Chinese gunners were
hanpered by fear Of hitting the CON
cessions themselves and possibly kill
ing people who had taken refuge
there.
The engagement continued for sew.
eral hours, when the combined land
and sea forces of the imperials were
driven some distance back. and the
rebels retiring. crosse the river into
WI Chang. their original base.
While the fighting was in progress
the thirteen foreign vessels strung
along the river landed joint force
in WI Chang in command Of Vice Ad
miral Alfred L. Winsloe. commander
Of the British eastern feet These
men were destined for the various
concessions. it being deemd advisable
that an increase In the guard was
necessary. Sir Alfred. because OF his
seniority, has been given the direc-
ton OF the men engaged in the protec.

In spite of hundreds of protests that

him to refuse to appear at the con-
gress, Mr.. Wilson welcomed the mem

1t was a short speech. To the non

assuring the international visitors the
same courtesy the United States has
received from the European countries
from which some OF them come.

ton went from the primary election
into the election OF Senator Stephen

Norris declared that the information
was given to him chiefly by W. IL.
Cook Of Duluth, who figured in the in
mer, and that Cook said that Robert
J. Shields OF Superior, Wis, also men
toned in the Lorimer case, was paid
$500 for his services in putting the
deal through.
When he took the stand Morris stip-
ulated that his testimony was to be
taken as Secondhand" information
and that he knew nothing save what
was told him. United States Senator
Hepburn instructed him to proceed
and his statements were made a part
of the record of the investigating COM
mittee.
In substance. Morris testified that
Shields had been employed in the
gathering of The fund and that subse-
quently he went to Washington and
obtained from Senator Stephenson a
signed check. the face of which was

STATE COPIES WITH
RABIES EPIDEMIC
BOARD OF HEALTH BULLETIN
EXPLAINS METHOD OF At
TACkIHG DISEASE.
SINGLE DEATH IN 200 CASES
List of Fatalities Decreased Despite
Onaccountable Spread of Epidemic
Throughout Wisconsin-Propose TO
Give Free Treatment.

Madison.-Out OF zoo cases of
rabies treated under the direction Of
the state board OF health. only one
has proved fatal, says a report OF the
board.
Although rabies has been prevail
ent in the state for many years, no
systematic examination nor methods
of prevention were used until the fall
of 1907. In that year rabies became
very pronounced in the neighborhood
Of Beloit, and then the disease took
a general direction to the northeast.
Successfully rabid animals were
reported from GAINESVILLE, Milton
Junction, WATERFOWL, Oshkosh, Green
Bay and Marinette. Scattering cases
also were reported from other parts
OF the state. The majority OF rahid
animals, however. came from the
eastern district.
After the legislature had refused
to establish a Pasteur institute the
outbreak of rabies in the state be-
came so severe that DIR. c. A. Harper
and DR.. Ravenel determined to be-
gin the treatment at once. Up to
the present time 1876 cases have been
treated and only one death has oc-
Cured.
More recently cases of rabies have
been sent to the laboratory from the
neighborhood of La Crosse and from
the eastern and southeastern parts of
the state. This is evident that the
disease is continuing to spread in
Wisconsin.
The death rate in Wisconsin from
rabies is considerably lower than in
many other states where no Pasteur
institute is maintained AT pres
ent charge of S25 is made. which
covers approximately the actual ex-
pense of the laboratory treatment.
AS soon as possible the state board
of health and the laboratory propose
to give the treatment free to all APP
plicants who are citizens of Wiscon-
sin

Ogden, Utah.-President Taft broke
his long journey from Los An

additional stops at Brigham City and

announcement that the president had

in Washington until after Novem-
Der 10.
The president will travel some 1900
or 1000 miles more .han at first in

BIASED JUROR ISSUE
is UP AGAIN IN TRIAL
Court TO Pass on Mcnamara Talesmen
Who Think Times Building
Was Dynamited.

Los Angeles.-Three talesmen were
examined and one was excused in the
murder trial Of James b. Mcnamara.
What is considered one of the big
issues of the tTial-whether a man
who believes firmly that the Los An
geles Times building was destroyed
by dynamite Is thereby disqualified
from serving on the jury--rests in the
hands of Judge Walter Bordwell. who
presides over the trial instituted to
show whether James B. Mcnamara
caused the death of c. J. Haggerty.
machinist. who lost his life in the
Times explosion and fire.
Opposing counsel see no hope in Sc
curing a jury until this point is de
cided.
Clarence S. barrow and other coun-
sci for the defense, holding that the
Times explosion was caused by gas
and that Mcnamara could not have
brought It about for this reason,
argued In court that a fixed belief in
the dynamite theory preiudiced the
rights OF their client and that the
talesman who held 1t would not be a
fair juror.
District attorney John d. Fred
ericks. for the state. compared the
situation TO the case OF burned barn
which is Of record.
"A man believing that the barn
was burned. yet having no opinion as
to whether the defendant burned II.
was allowed to serve as a juror" he
said. Similarly a talesman may be-
lieye that the Times building was de
stroyed by dynamite and still have
no opinion in mind regarding the de-
PENDANT IN the case"
