WILL NOT ALLOW
WILEY'S REM0VlL

WASHINGTON Special While
President Taft has made no state
ment as TO whether Or. Harvey w
Wiley, chief of the Bureau Of Chemis-
try OF the Department of Agriculture
is or is not TO be retained in the Gov
eminent service, there is reason for
the belief that the decree Of the Pres
ident will take this form:
SHARP rebuke for the practice OF
Juggling salaries to fit special cases
even when the end to be obtained is a
worthy one.
1.-The statement that such a prac-
tice. if allowed to go unchecked, would
DO great harm to the Government ser
vice.
Acknowledgement of the great &C
complishments of DR.. Wiley in the in
terest Of the public health.
1.-The explanation that Attorney
General Wickersham's recommends
ton Of dismissal was in line with the
facts and the law, and that IL is over
ruled solely in recognition of the great
public services of DIR. Wiley. who be
cause his administration has been so
efiicient. f. pardoned."

u
smallpox has developed at Hewlett's,
Hanover county, where colOred boy
employed by Mrs. Philip J. Duke has
been FOR week or ten days complain
ing of being sick. The boy has been
going around the premises attending
10 his duties and mnglinE with the
people around the place, and on sun
day the case was diagnosed as a case
of smallpox.
This was the report made by DE-
Herman Anderson, who was called to
attend the boy. And following the
ammo unCement there were some hurried
conferences, some excitement, grea
deal OF confusion and n demand for
vaccine virus that would have made n
drug store look like n bargain II h
rush in a dry goods establishmentN
DR.. Anderson consulted the health
authorities; he consulted the county
authorities, and he was ready to take
any steps that might be necessary to
relieve the situation. There is great
apr ehension as to what will be the
outcome Of the case, for there is no
telling just how many persons may
have become infected by the boy pass
ing In and around the premises
And what TO do with the boy is a
question which is engaging some at
'ention. He cannot be turned loose
and left to die in a vacant house and
there is no way TO send him To a nest
house. They have the sick boy on
their hands, they are confronted with
a possible epidemic OF SMALLPOX. anSN

Six Dcaths i'm New York.

NEW YORK, - Special. - With six
dead L. . nd fifteen others in the
detentivu hospital on Swinburne
Island suffering with the dread dis
ease, the cholera situation in New
York today doomed up so large as to
cause grave anxiety to the immigra-
ton officials. Four additional cases
were brought to Swinburne Island
terday. when they developed cholera
symptoms. DR.. AlVah II. DOty, health
officer of the port of New York. in a
statement concerning the gravity of
the situation here, declared that one
of the greatest dangers from cholera
and one which it is practically i'm
possible to guard "Reminiscences from
the frequency Of what are known as
cholera carriers"
These people" he said. carry the
organism OF the disease in the in
festival tract and may develop ii at
any time or may transmit the disease
to others without developing Symp-
toms Of cholera in themselves. This
is n condition we have just learned
and we know now ii is a common
cause for the transmission OF the dis
ease where apparently no previous
cases have occurred.
1T is probable that the cases now
engaging our attention are the result
of cholera carriers However, it is
not impossible that through them
some local infection may have occur
red. and l have ordered that speci-
mems be taken from the intestinal
tracts of all Of them"
The fifth patient to die OF cholera
was Erzebet SzabbOlisenti, twenty
five years old. She first developed
symptoms of the disease last Tuesday.
After her death yesterday DR.. DOty
called a consultation OF his entire
STAFF at his home in Roseland, Staten
Island.
Another death, the sixth. occurred
this morning. This became known
when the following statement was
given out at quarantine:
During the night and early morn
ing there have been no new develop
ments on Hoffman Island No sus-
picious cases have occurred and the
conditions are satisfactory.

ERRICONE AGAIN VIOLENT
DURING CAMORRA TRIAL
Calls Captain Fabroni Murderer"
and Strikes Fellow Prisoner.

viterbo, July .12.-Another stormy
incident between Captain Fabroni and
the lawyers for the defense caused
Erricone in fierce rage to shake the
bars like a madmaE. He pointed at
Fabrcni and shouted: Murderer.
You were the cause of my brothers
death in prison."
One of the. other prisoners seized
Erricone and c1apped a hand over his
mouth, but Erricone shook him off and
struck him. The presidents finally re-
stored order
During his testimony, F'abroni high
1y praised Marshal Capizzuti of the
cara bineers, who took part in the in
vestigation of the Camorrist -organiza-
ton. He described minuteiy the meth
DDS followed in this investigation and
said that the newspapers had been of
great assistance, especially a Rome
publication which was then edited by
Alessandro Eioy, one of the lawyers
for the defense, which showed q. won
derfu1 knowledge of what was going
on among the Camorrists.
LaEer when the Camorrists were ar
rested, this paper asserted that the
carabineers had manufactured a case
against them, whereas the carabineers
had acted after a denunciation of the
Camorra which appeared in that paper.
