INSANITY INCREASING

Enormous increase in the spread Of
insanity throughout the United States
has led those interested in the general
welfare to take some steps towards
retarding this great disease.
The Russell Sage foundation fund
devoted to the advances of all de-
partments of social welfare has late
" given consideration to the spread
of insanity and is now conducting
some Investigations which it is hoped
will aid in determining the causes and
the remedy for the abnormal increase
in mental detectives in America.
According to carefully prepared
statistics and estimates, insanity has
increased 104 per cent during the last
forty years, while the population dur
ing that period has only increased 40
per cent. According to the reports
of the Board of Charities for the
state of New York, there were last
year 10000 insane persons being
cared for in institutions in that state,
and this did not include those being
cared for in their homes or in private
institutions. This is practically equi-
valent to one insane person for each
$50 of the population Of the state.
These figures, of course, include pa
tients who have been in the institu-
tons for years and therefore have
been enumerated a number of times.
Therefore the statement that more
than 10000 persons have been found
insane in New York state in one year
is rather misleading. The actual
number Of new cases admitted, so far
as can be ascertained, reached 5,3O1
which would amount to one for each
1000 sane persons in the state above
l6 years old.

Christmas even affects people who for

Of Christmastide are those which will
never appear in print true stories Of
men and women whose thoughts have

ARE PURSUING REYES.
But Mounted Government Troops Fail
to Locate Him.

Monterey, Mex, Dec. 2l.-Mounted
government troops, moving in groups
Of twenty or thirty men and dis
tributed over a wide area followed
the elusive Gen. Bernardino Reyes
into the state of Tamaulipas. Latest
reports received In headquarters are
that Tuesday Reyes and his staff were
on the Vauqueria ranch, part OF the
Sauceda hacienda, but so far none Of
his numerous pursuers have sighted
him.
Gen. Geronimo Trevino's reports
continue to indicate that Reyes is
failing to get recruits. This is not re-
garded as altogether indicative OF
Reyes failure. The suggestion is made
that he is not expecting his army to
fall in behind him and make a sort OF
| triumphal march, but that he Ia send
ing word to sub.chiefs here and there
and is calling on others, giving to all
instructions for concerted movement
to follow some signal from him.
Mexico City, Mex, Dec. 2l.-Circu-
lars bearing the printed signature, "B
Reyes" dated Nov. 16, and announc-
ing the reform plan of San Luis Po-
tosi," were distributed among the
newspaper offices in Mexico City last
night. The reform plan" contains
the usual denunciation of the MaderO
government. and calls upon patriots to
join the "constitutionalist army" to
overthrow the present administration.
1t provides for the naming of Reyes
as provisional president, and later the
naming OF a president ad interim.

The reduction OF all tax and revenue

PACKERS RAISE OBJECTION.
Claim Prosecution Did Not Clearly
State the Case.

Chicago, Dec. 21.-Whether Dis
trict Attorney Wilkerson's opening
statement to the jury was clearly and
decisively stated as regards the al
legation against the meat packers that
they had violated the criminal provi-
sion Of the Sherman antitrust law
was to be decided by Judge Carpen-
ter when the hearing was resumed at
10 o'clock today.
The court was expected to rule as
to whether counts and Of the in
dictment should be stricken out, in
accordance with motion of Attorney
Levy Mayer yesterday afternoon. Mr..
Mayors point was that the National
Packing company was not mentioned
in this portion of the indictment and
therefore that they must fail because
the government contends that this
concern mainly fixed the price OF
meat. In the event the courts ruling
favored the government, the packers
counsel were prepared to begin pre-
senting their cases to the jury. How
long this would take was problemati
cal.
1t was expected that four Of the
counsel would speak.

PRAISE FOR TARIFF BOARD.

The President Says Its Work Demon
strates Permanent Need.
Washington, Dec. 20.-In his special
message to congress, President Taft
characterized the report Of the tariff
board as the most complete and ex.
haustive statement of a difficult and
complicated subject ever presented
to a legislative body. He declares it
a moment to the thoroughness, in.
dustry, impartiality and accuracy OF
the men engaged in it's making. He
also dwells with emphasis upon the
fact that the report is unanimous
one and asserts the belief that it will
convince all of the wisdom of making
the tariff board permanent.
Neither the president nor the board
proposes definite rates of duty. Mr..
Taft holding that the function of the
board merely is to present findings of
fact on which rates of duty may be
fairly determined in the light of ade-
quate knowledge and in accord with
the economic policy to be followed.
President Taft recommends that the
proposed revision adhere to a policy
of protection based upon the differen-
ces in cost Of production at home and

DR.. KELLY is SENTENCED.
Council Bluffs Physician Loses Appeal
to Set Aside Verdict.

Des Moines, Dec. 2l.-Dr Harry
Kelly of Council Bluffs, the young
physician who shot Clarence Wool
man OF Council Bluffs and Edmund
Sterling Of Des Moines, was sentenced
to eight years in the penitentiary at
Anamosa yesterday by Judge Brad
shaw of the criminal division of the
district court. The court pronounced
judgment upon Kelly following refusal
to sustain motion filed by Kelly's
attorneys that the verdict be set aside
and judgment entered to conform with
the special finding OF the jurymen,
who voted Kelly was insane at the
time Of the shooting. Judge Brad
shaw held there was nothing in the
answer to the special interrogatory to
show that the jury believed Kelly's
insanity prompted him to kill the two
men.
Attorneys for Kelly hold that the
verdict of manslaughter is inconsis.
tent with the finding that Kelly was
insane.
