LESSEN X-RAY DANGER.
Partisan Physician Completes Expert
ment.

Paris, Oct. 21.-A discovery that is
expected to remove the danger to
which manipulators of the x-ray have
been subjected in it's handling has
been announced at the academy of
sciences by NJ. l.. G.. Druit.
In his experiments M. Droit was i'm
pressed with the remarkable capacity
of silk while being dyed to absorb
considerable quantities Of metallic
substances. With the aid of two silk
manufacturers, he succeeded in get
ting a piece of silk heavily absorbed
with lead and other substances which
proved impenetrable armor against the
rays. One piece of silk thus charged
weighs 266 grams to the square meter.
With six thicknesses Of this silk NJ.
Droit fashioned a short glove which
he has used successfully in handling
x.rays. The gloves possesses the dou.
BILE advantage of suppleness and pro
lection against the rays.

DISCUSSES DISSOLUTION.
Statement by Wickersham Concerning
Oil Trust.

Washington, Oct. 22.-To sustain his
contention that the decree dissolving
the Standard Oil company gave the
relief sought by the antitrust suit
against the corporation, Attorney Gen.
eral Wickersham issued a statement
revealing some of the results of an
Inquiry he has been making into con-
ditions in the oil industry.
The statement, intended as a furth-
err reply to criticisms that such de-
crees as that of the Standard Oil bene.
fitted the trusts, was built around a
letter, optimistic as to present condi-
tons, which the attorney general re-
Gently received from G.. d. Chamber
lain, secretary and general counsel of
the National Petroleum association.
Attorney General Wickersham gave
out with his statement a copy of a
letter from Mr.. Chamberlain, who
wrote that while the full effect of
the decree cannot yet be judged, in
dependent companies have, today,
more unrestricted and uncontrolled
opportunity to carry on their business
without unfair, secret and oppressive
competition on the part of one great
rival than they have enjoyed for years
past"
Mr.. Chamberlain wrote that, as a
result Of the decree, there had been
a great advance in the price of crude
oil, benefitting the crude producer,
and also an increase in the price of
refined products due to the higher cost
of crude petroleum and the enormous
demand for gasolene.

graph wires are down and details
from the interior are lacking.
The government is dispatching a re-
lief steamer to Cebu and Visayas. 1t
is feared that in addition to the loss
OF life and the wreckage of property,
