EUROPE---POLITIGS AND PERSONS
The Kaiser May Try New ElectiOn---Italy
Fears Austria Truth Tells Secrets
About Former Editor.

Italy by going to Tripoli has obtain
ed what she desired in the Mediter-
ranean, so she no longer needs the
assistance and guarantee of her allies
on that side, while her interests and
influence in the Adriatic and the Balk-
ans are regulated by special agree
ments with Austria.
Germany, on the other hand, still
needs the Triple Alliance, and for the
same reason as before. Although her
relations with France are not strained
as they were thirty years ago, there
is no doubt that the republic would
not allow to pass an opportunity to
get the better of her ancient rival.
Italy, however, considers it to her
interests to remain in the TTipllce be-
cause this alliance can protect her
from attack on the part of Austria,
which would be quite possible were
not the two ntries bound by a
treaty. Italy, therefore, is in the per-
haps unique situation of concluding
an alliance not to protect herself from
an enemy, but from her ally.

until DR.. Bernard announced the dis
covery Of the nerve degeneration
theory.
Although his opinion has not been
disputed, physicians have not accepted
the theory as yet
According to locar doctors, infan-
tile paralysis commences with a high
fever Delirum and commissions gen
orally result in one to four days and
the child gradually becomes paralyzed.
In st. Louis hospitals the little suffer
ers have been placed in plaster casts
so that the limbs may not be deform-
ed. Several children afflicted with
the paralysis have recovered but the
majority have died
Tubercular meningitis, by far the
more common of the two diseases, is
caused by a germ known to physi-
clans, but few cures have been re-
ported
The germ is communicated by un-
sanitary conditions and the contrac-

Unwashed milk bottles, improper
diet and the use of condensed milk
are the causes given by physicians for
the spread of the disease Condensed
milk does not contain enough butter

clare.

spinal cord are three in number and

CURE FOR THE
DREAD NALADY
FOUND At LAST
INFANTILE PARALYSIS.

Has a cure at last been found for
the deadly infantile paralysis, which
annually causes the leath of thous-
ands of American babies?
A recent dispatch from Chicago re-
ports the first cure in the history OF
medicine.
According to the report Agnes Kiley
az years old, was cured of the dread
malady, after being i'll six months.
DR.. Roy o. Bernard, who treated the
case, announced recently that he had
discovered a serum and a method Of
treatment that is a positive cure in
the milder cases.
However, no method of curing more
severe attacks of the illneess has been
found, and thousands of children are
sacrificed to the disease each year
while scientists experiment in a vain
effort to find positive cure.
In explaining the cure, DIR. Bernard
said:
81 have been experimenting with
cases of infantile paralysis for many
years on the theory that the ailment
is caused by a degeneration of the
nerve cells resulting in the anterior
horns of the gray matter of the brain
and nerve cord becoming atrophied.
"The symptoms of the disease de-
velop quickly and often child goes
to sleep and awakens paralysed. The
blood circulation has become made
quate and the cells go to sleep,
by mechanical treatment of the
nerves running to the affected parts
the blood supply may be stimulated
BY massaging the neck at the base Of
the skull the nerve action may be in
dreaded At first l gave treatments
lasting twenty-five minutes and later
reduced the length of the massage.
The circulation soon increased and the
cells were again restored to normal
activity.
"A serum made Of a strong blood
stimulant was also used with the mas
seur treatment.
In the case Of Agnes Kiley, the
paralysis started in the upper arms
and gradually worked down to the
lower limbs. The treatment was sue
cessful and the child is now able to
romp about with the other children
in the neighborhood of her home
No cause for the disease was known

TO AID HIS TITuLAR CHURCH.

ROME, Jan. 27.-As was the case
with Cardinal Farley, the Vatican is
following with the keenest interest the
preparations being made in Boston to
welcome Cardinal OConnell. There is
great interest here also in the lecture
Cardinal O'Connell will give on
his titular Church of San Clemente.
This lecture will be illustrated with
about 100 slides, showing the wonder
full architecture, three churches being
built, one on top of another, in three
different epochs, forming the present
basilica.'
The slides will also show the magni-
ficent fTescoes and the danger in
which they stand of being injured by
the water which floods the lower
church. 1t is understood that the
lecture will serve to collect fund to
assist in draining off of the ever-rising
water, thus contributing to most i'm
portant work in favor of the monu-
mental church to which the name Of
Cardinal O'Connell is atttched.
San Clemente is entrusted to the
care of the Irish Dominicans, and the
lantern slides were made under the
direction of Father Moore prior to the
church, and Father Louis Nolan, who
is acting as secretary of the committee
for the work of draining, and who is
the author of an erudite book on the
Church of st. Clemente.

likely 70 RENEW TRIPLIcE.

ROME, Jan. 3O.-The results of the
recent visit of Herr Won Kiderlen-
Waechter, the German Foreign Minis
ter, are being shown by discussions
and comments concerning the renewal
of the Triple Alliance treaty This
treaty has not yet been extended
but it is practically certain that it will
be within the year, bringing the COM
pact between central empires and the
Italian kingdom down to 1920. The
present treaty expires in 1914
The situation of Italy in the alliance
is now stronger than ever before.
When Bismarck first concluded the al
lance with Austria in 1879 and then
attracted Italy in 1882, he sought chief
ly to protect Germany from France in
case the latter sought revenge for the
defeat of 1870. Italy Joined with the
object of seeing her position and in
terests in the Mediterranean better
protected against France,

THE ATTEMPT TO GRAB THE
HAReOR.

Why was not Captain Streeter's
claim TO the Lake Shore valid, II the
claim Of some OF the present benefici.
aries of the great "fill.in" is valid?
Why should the City Of Chicago pay
to any OF these men its good money
for their alleged rights?
What right has any corporation
any more than private individual to
I'LL Ia the lake front OF the city and
then demand money from the city
when Il wants the land for public ben
efts?
These are some OF the questions
that people are asking each other ev-
cry day.
Mayor Harrison has taken the
proper stand In the matter and has
the full backing OF the public.
ANY member OF the Legislature who
votes to give away Chicago's rights in
this matter will be retired TO private
life.
Attorney George Packard Is quoted
as saying that because the Attorney
General sat idly by and let sundry
persons grab the north lake 'front.' the
city is now powerless to get its land
back except by condemnation, or
words 10 that effect.

WATER METER GRAFT.

The water meter graft is bobbing
its head up again.
II Is proposed to tax every lot in
Chicago from 5000 to $500 for water
meters, besides the great expense 1t
will entail upon all users of water.
Chicago has an immense water
fund. II part Of 1t was devoted to
wards building pumping stations at
the lake end of every section line in
Chicago there would be no water fam.
Inc anywhere.
II Is astonishing what men the
water meter people can influence to
their way of thinking.
Some men who ought to know bet.
ter are talking for water meters.
More than that the high pressure"
scheme Is up again.
According to some advocates 1t will
only cost thirty or forty millions Of
dollars to install meters and high
pressure" system. The poor will have
to pay the cost.
With half this sum additional pump.
ing stations could be built which
would more than supply the demand
A well known engineer who was ad.
vocating thigh pressure" and water
meters said the other day, according
to daily papers. that one Of the chief
troubles in Chicago was the very high
consumption of water, which averaged
about 1000 gallons per capita daily,
caused largely by waste and under.
ground leakage from broken connec.
lions. As a remedy for waste he
recommended water meters. The test
of the water pressure made In the
loop shows an insufficient pressure,
but he said that the city was install.
ing a large number of water mains,
none under eight inches, and these
would materially improve the pres.
sure.
The health Of the city demands
plenty Of water for everybody.
The installation Of meters would
limit the consumption of water and
raise the price of living on the poor.
Higher rates would have to be
charged in the residence districts and
tenants would have to pay the water
rates after the landlords had paid an
exorbitant rate for installing water
meters.
This form Of graft is particularly
Objectionable to Chicago people. They
will not stand for It..
