Identifying MaIarial Germs


Dallas News: DR.. Charles Cassedy
time been conducting experiments with
the parasites which have in recent
years been proved to be the cause
of malaria. These parasites destroy
the red blood cells and also impart
to the blood a virulent poison. The
problem was to get these microscopic
organisms to grow outside of the hu-
man body. The solution was found
by Dr. Bass last winter for the first
time in the history of medicine. This
advance has made possible fuller
study of the nature and treatment of
malaria than has as yet been prac-
ticable.
AS the severe cases of malaria were
not numerous enough in New Orleans
to furnish sufficient material for COM
pleting his Investigations, a research
expedition to Central America was or
ganized last April by the Tulane school
of tropical medicine, Of which DR..
Creighton Wellman is the head, for
the express purpose of the further
study of malaria. DIR. Bass, an as
sistant professor in the school, ac-
companied by an assistant, DIR. Foster
Mathew Johns, proceeded to Panama.
and with all the facilities of the gov
ernment hospitals under Colonel Cor
gas at his disposal, spent some weeks
endeavoring to secure in artificial cul-
lures the same stages of growth that
the malariaI parasites go through in
the human body. In this he was ul-
timately successful. Specimens Of
these grewths have been sent to other
schools of tropical medicine and re-
search institutes throughout the world.
Full details of the methods used have
just been published in the October
of the Journal of Experimental
Medicine, a publication of the Rookie
Teller institute for medical research of
New York.

Mr.. WILSON STATES HOPES
OF COMING ADMINISTRATION

PRINCETON, Nov. 7.-Governor VIII
son yesterday made the following
statement:
that the thoughtful Progressive forces
of the nation may now at last unite
to give the country freedom and enter
prise and a government released from
all corporate and private influences
devoted to justice and progress.
There is absolutely nothing for the
honest and enlightened business men
of the country to fear. No man whose
business is conducted without viola
tions of the rights of free competition,
and without such private undertaking
and secret alliances as violate the
principle of our law and the policy of
all wholesome commerce and enter
prise need fear either interference or
embarra ssment from the administra-
ton.
"Our hope and purpose is now to
bring all the free forces of the nation
into active and intelligent co-opera-
ton, to give to our prosperity fresh
ness and spirit and a confidence such
it has never had in our time.
"The responsibilities of the task are
tremendous, but they are common re-
sponsibilities which all leaders of ac-
tion and opinion must share. And
with the confidence of the people be"
hind US. everything that is right is
possible. My own ambition will be
more than satisfied If I may be per-
mitted to be the frank spokesman of
the nations thoughtful purposes in
these great matters"

WASHINGTON, Nov. THE next

distributed as doubtful or unreported.
NEW YORK, Nov. There is now

The attention of those interested in
compiling the returns is to establish
the result in the various states as to
the election of legislatures which will

the senate will be Democratic or not.
1t is the opinion here from results OBJ
tainable that in all probability the

MARINES TO CO TO HAITI

Congress Must Increase Marine
Corps 5000 Men.

Washington, ID. C.-Hsiti, the

the armed demonstration by American
marines in Santo Domingo ordered by
the president, officials here admitted.
Action in Haiti similar to that taken
In Nicaragua is deemed almost Ger.
tain. Within three weeks the marines
will be on Haitian soil, ostensibly to
protect Dominican custom houses.
Navy department heads declared
that congress must increase the
marine corps next winter, possibly
5000 men. The Nicaragusn expedi-
ton required about 2.ooe men. There
now are about 1900 privates In the
marine corps, large proportion OF
whom are stationed on the Pacific
coast. With the opening of the Pan
ANA canal and increased disturbances
in Latin-America. they say 5000 more

EXPOSES THE TARIFF FRAUD
American company's Offer Of Steel
Rails to Manchester, England, Is
Illuminating.

Recently the city of Manchester.
England, wanted steel rails for its
roads. The contract was not large
one, but when It was advertised the
bidding for it was sharp and bitter
Manchester Is In the iron and steel
district Of England, and in position
to command the lowest price on the
domestic product.
When the bids were opened. how
ever, It was found that an American
concern, the Lorain Steel company OF
Jamestown, Pa, had made the lowest
offer In round figures, the LoraIh
company would sell for $4,000 what
it's English rivals demanded S55ooV
for.
The American company was pre-
pared to manufacture the rails, pay
freight and handling to the AtIanuc
seaboard. pay freight and handling pl
sea to England. and again pay ireign,
and handling to Manchester, and SUI
make a profit on its sale at near'S
ten per cent. under the British price
And yet, in the face of such sho"
ing as this, the stand pat Republican
still maintains that the present tarl'
on steel rails is absolutely essehun'
to the prosperity of the industry !"
this country. The steel business IF
still to him an infant industry ever,
though 1t can go into the hear Z"

It has made at American corruption,
Can anything be said in reply Very
little. We can only construct a dla
bolical plot by Archbold. Penrose, ct
al, to ruin Mr.. Roosevelt and tho
Progressive cause. There are very
few things to justify such a theory
Among these is the death Of Mr.
Bliss and the fact that his books as
treasurer of the committee were de-
stroyed by him; so that any accuse
ton whatever could be made and no
proof of his falsity could be pro
duced. or course this argument HIll
apply as well to the other side Of the
case. Naturally the Standard Oil pDo-
pie are furious at Roosevelt for his
prosecution of the trust and would
do almost anything to !checkmate his
ambition to be president again but
that they would devise such a plot is
hard to believe. II we inject Mr.
Penrose into the affair, we may say
that his s3,00O,000 story about the
Progressive campaign this year is so
absurd that 1t is difficult to credit any
of his charges. On the other hand
Roosevelt's relations with Hartman
during this campaign were such as 20
make 1t probable that he welcomed
contributions. We know that he
asked Hartman to help in the New
York state campaign of that year
And It was no worse to ask Hartman
than 1t was to ask Archbold More

national campaign funds is mythical

The head OF Miss Kaempen is well

is a wound, evidently made with N

The bodies Of her parents had been

Indications are that the crime was
committed after the family had re-
tired. The telephone wires were cut
and relatives OF Miss Kaempen in

schmidt home, were unable to make a
connection.
Robbery Is Suspected.

The house was nearly destroyed
when farmers arrived on the scene.
Pfandschmidt had been in the habit
