saved the United States troops in San

ton Of Major ]. E. Mead of the medi-
cal department, Michigan National
Guard, who has just returned from
the border.
only one case OF typhoid fever has
appeared in camp since its establish
ment, and that was brought in by a
teamster," said Maj. Mead. This is
a condition which probably, has never
prevailed In a military camp before
There is no sickness at all. The on
ly explanation is that every soldier
is inoculated before he comes to
camp. The camp sanitation Is also
perfect. The disposal of refuse is one
OF the main problems in keeping
down diseases, and this is met at the

 The understanding between the two leaders is not coupled with any con dition that the government will in any way abandon its reciprocity proposals. The premier's decision is in line with urgent requests from Great Britain. and general sentiment among mem bers of parliament that Canada should be represented by it's first minister at both the conference and the corona tion.

Assistant Prosecutor Arrives With Evidence Obtained by the Burns
 Detectives.

Los Angeles. Cal April 5.-Wil- liam ] Ford assistant district attor- ney, who will aid in the prosecution of John and James McNamara, ac- cused of dynamite the Times building, arrived from Indianapolis today. He has supposed to have brought with him most of the evidence William J. Burns is said to have unearthed con corning the conspiracy charged against the labor leader and his brother.
 That the district attorney is con sidering a question of dispensing with arraignment of the prisoners was the development of a call paid to the prosecutor today by Leo M. Kappa port, counsel for the prisoners.
 A preliminary hearing before a jus tice of the peace is the alternative course and the advantage of this lies n the fact that the prosecution could withhold from the defense the evil dence on which the indictments were based.

KILLS TWO
 CENT RATE

Little Rock, Ark, May 4.-u. s. Judge Trieber this afternoon made the injunction against the Arkansas Railroad Commission in the 2-cent passen scr rate and the freight rate cases perpetual and at the same time retained juris- diction in the case.
 The cause of action came on act of the legislature of 1907 provid- ing that railroads in Arkansas should not charge more than cents per mile for passengers, and an order of the Railroad Com mission promulgating certain freight rates In this state. The Iron Mountain and Cotton Belt brought suit to enjoin the com mission from enforcing the act and its order, upon the ground that it was confiscatory.
 Judge Trieber rules that it Is not confiscatory on the ground that 6 per cent is a reasonable earning, but that 7 1-2 per cent should be allowed in good years to balance with the lean years.
 The decision means that rail- roads may continue to charge the old rate, which was restored when the temporary injunction was granted.
