SPECIALISTS DOUBT
SERUM IS FOUND
FOR TUBERCULOSIS
Local Physicians Make Light
OF Claims of Johns Hop
kins Scientists.

Until the scientists of the Johns Hop
kins University Hospital, who are re-
puted to have discovered a serum
whereby humanity Is to be immune to
tuberculosis, can demonstrate by cures
of men and women of the disease the
wonders they are said to claim for the
new discovery, the medical world will
regard the discovery with skepticism,
In the opinion of local specialists.
According to dispatches from Balti-
more, Drs. Louis Hammon and Charles
f. Austrian, two members Of the Johns
Hopkins staff, declare that they have
discovered a serum which, from expert
ments conducted with rabbits as speci-
mems, has proven boon in the eradica-
ton of tuberculosis LESSONS.
Experimentation with serum dates
from the Koch era In the treatment Of
tuberculosis" said DR.. John d. Macatee,
one Of the best known authorities In the
city on the treatment of the disease.
1T Is possible that the Johns Hopkins
men have discovered something wonder
full in the treatment of the disease.
have not seen or heard anything but
what appears In the newspapers, and,
of course, cannot discuss the matter to
any extent. But until the discoverers
of this new serum can demonstrate to
the medical world by cures Of humans,
and not animals, the benefits of their
charity. So many times since the study
of the disease similar declarations re-
garding sure cures have been discov-

GENERAL DELIVERY
CLERKS ORDERED TO
QUESTION PUBLIC
People Must Explain Why
They Get Mail There In
stead Of At Home.

Clerks who work at the general de-
livery window of the Washington city
Postoffice are steeling themselves to
meet some angry protests next Mon
day when Postmaster Merritt's new
general delivery rules go into effect
The orders are to prevent the deliv-
cry of mail for clandestine purposes,
and residents of the city on carrier
routes will be required to state in writ
Ing why they are applying at the gem
eral delivery window. For some time
the general delivery service in Wash
ington has seen reform in homeopathic
quantities, but the dose is now to be
made drastic.
I'VE find that many persons" says
Postmaster Merritt, who live in the
city and who have business Offices In
the city within the city carrier limits,
are using the general delivery win
office Department to reduce the busi-
ness there, and accordingly 1 shall
hereafter require that all persons
known to have city home or business ad-
showing why they prefer to have their
mail come to general delivery, and II
that statement is not satisfactory, they
will be further requested to make ar
rangements to have their mail deliv-
cred by carrier"
The city postoffice has a number Of
cases in mind where reform Is going
to take place because OF requests in the
past by other members of families that
the recipient of mail be refused it at
the general delivery window.
One lawyer has written asking that
his wifes mail be sent to the home. He
suspects she is getting letters from a
man whom he threw out of the house
some time ago. Parents, with daughters
who are slightly flighty. have made
similar requests.
Inasmuch as the persons who are
after the mail are not expected to relish
the reform, the general delivery clerks
are thinking about buying baseball
masks and have gratings put up in
front of the windows.

CHILE TO KEEP OUT
|MPORTAT|ONS Of
DISEASED PLANTS
South American Republic
Takes Precaution Against
Infection.

American exports Of nursery stock
to Chile will hereafter be restricted to
entry at two ports, and will all be SUBJ
ject to examination for plant disease,
according to an official communication
transmitted to the Department of Ag-
riculture by the Department of State.
The importation of rooted grape vines
and rooted peach trees is absolutely
forbidden. Other stock will be exam
ined and II found infected by diseases
or parasites dangerous to plant life the
exporter must either have 1t satisfac
torily disinfected or remove it. The ex-
pense of the examination, to be made
by the Chilean bureau of plant pathol-
ogy, is to be borne by the interested
parties.
The two ports of entry for nursery
stock under this notice are valparaiso
and Talcahuano. The Cordillera ports
are closed to entries of this nature.
This notice follows, although there is
not necessarily connection between
them, upon an order of the Departmen
OF Agriculture, declaring a quarantine
against Hawaii on account of the Med
importation of four species of pine
from Great Britain, Germany, France,
Belgium, Holland, Denmark, Norway,
Sweden, Russia, Switzerland and Italy
to prevent the importation of white

Market news continues good, and ur-

there is little to be hoped for now other
than continued dullness and sagging

The Bank of England rate of discount

uneasiness from the fear that rates

COMMITTEE TO ASK
ABOUT GUGGENHE|M
CAMP PA|GN DONATION
c. P. Taft Alleged to Have
knowledge of Con-
tribution.

One result Of the campaign contribu-
lions inquiry which the Senate subcom-
mittee, headed by Senator Clapp, will
press this fall will be an effort to find
out whether the Guggenheim interests
contributed any money to the 1903 cam
paign, and whether this had any rela-
ton to the fact Richard A. Ballinger
was so long retained in the Cabinet in
the face of opposition.
Charles P. Taft has been alleged to
have knowledge of a contribution from
the Guggenheims. 1t is expected that
when he is called as witness he will
be questioned on this point and also
asked whether Mr.. Ballinger's appoint
ment had any relation to this alleged
contribution.
