DOCTOR FUTILE RESIGNS
TO ACCEPT ANOTHER Job
SECRETARY OF STATE BOARD OF
HEALTH STEPS DOWN AFTER
LONG SERVICE.

Helena, Dec. 11.-As an aftermath
to his appointment by the governor
to the presidency of the State Tuber.
culosis sanitarium a few weeks ago,
DR.. T. D. Tuttle, secretary of the state
board of health, yesterday rendered
his resignation from that Office in let
ter to DR.. D. J. Donohue, president of
the board. The resignation will go in
to effect on December II.
DR.. Tuttle became secretary of the
board of health in 1902. Since that
time that body, thanks to his diligent
service, has emerged from condition
OF seeming Indifference regarding the
duties of the department to one of
earnest solicitation in the welfare of
the state. DR.. Tuttle has been instru-
mental in bringing about the educa-
ton of the people in all the important
matters of health and has been In
sisIent in his demands for laws pro-
WANG tor more cleanliness in the dis
pensing of food necessities as we'll as
in the enforcement OF the laws after
they were enacted.
In his letter to DR.. Donohue, DR..
TuttIe says:
"The governor having rendered me
the Office OF president OF the State
tuberculosis sanitarium, and his &C.
ton having been confirmed by the
other members Of the state board of
examiners, and l having determined
to accept this appointment, 1t becomes
necessary tor me to tender you, as
president of the state board of health
of Montana, my resignation as secre-
tary OF said board, to take effect
Tuesday, December II, 1912, or as
soon thereafter as the board may be
willing to release me from this office.
I'm rendering my resignation, wish
to express my sincere appreciation to
the members of the state board Of
health, as individuals, and to the board
as whole for the ever-courteous man.
ner in which you have treated me
and for your earnest and energetic
support in all matters which tended
to improve the sanitary condition of
the people of our state and to pro-
test the health and lives of it's people.
while l have from the first men,
tion of the subject, looked on the offer
rendered me by the governor as a
compliment to me, the greatest strug-
gle in my mind has been the question
of severing my connection with the
state board of health. l doubt if
will ever again be placed in posi-
tion wherein the relations between a
number of men working to the same
end will be as pleasant as they have

cannot find words to express my deep
appreciation of the treatment l have
received from every member of the
board from the governor down, and
this courtesy has not been confined en-
tirely to the members of the board Of
health, but extends to the members OF
the state board of examiners and to
every official in the capitol building
with whom have been brought in
contact.
Therefore 1t is with deep feeling
and sincere regret that l tender you

As the result Of enthusiastic mass
meetings held all over the country last
night by councils of the knights OF
Columbus, attendance figures at the un-
yelling Of the Columbus memorial here

grams and long distance telephone

that would come that heretofore have
not signified their intentions of being
present.
Hotel accommodations to date have
been made for about 10000 knights of
Columbus. Hundreds of requests for ad-
ditional accommodations will arrive this
week, and $1,000 members at least are
expected to attend. when the unveiling
plans were first made the maximum
attendance figures of the Knights called
for $1,000. but II was not really ex-
pected at the time that this great num-
Der would be here. Now It looks as
will come. Ali the hotels in the city
will be packed. Extra accommo oda tions
are being made in the apartments and

HITCHCOCK APPROVES
OF BOURNE MEASURE
FOR PARCEL POST
Postmaster General Tells
Senate Postoffice Commit
tee Bill Is Correct.

Postmaster General Hitchcock has
expressed unqualified approval of sena-
tor Bourne's parcel post bill in a letter
directed to the Senate Postoffice Com
mittee.
Four provisions OF the bill are es-
pecially commended by the head Of the
postal service; the consolidation Of
fourth and third classes of mail, which
will simplify schedules and lessen
labor. the establishment of cheap rural
city delivery UP TO eleven pounds, the
division of the United States and pos
sessions into six postal zones and the
fixation of rates on the basis Of cost
Of handling and transportation.
Speaking of the rates provided by
the bill Postmaster General Hitchcock
wrote:
THE effect of this measure will be
not only to lessen the cost OF transpor-
tation, but to stimulate he general
trade in small wares and also to in
crease the postal revenues and pave
the way for other postal reforms
Benefit will accrue to all persons ex-
cept those carriers now engaged In the
transportation Of small packages, says
Mr.. Hitchcock. He urges its speedy
passage by Congress,

Commissioners Approve of
Measure Introduced by
Congressman Jones.

The Commissioners sent to Congress
today a favorable report on the bill

The penalty provided is Imprisonment

The Commissioners are in favor Of

lating to the taking of motor vehicles

property without the right to do so
shall be misdemeanor punishable by

ment not exceeding six months.

TO
Be STAR WITNESS
IN OIL HEARING
Waters-Pierce Interests Fear
Standard Is Seeking to
Gust Them.

NEW YORK. May N.-Anticipating
the grilling Of John D. Rockefeller by
Attorney Samuel Untermeyer. a big
crowd fiocked to the latter's office today
when the hearing was begun OF the suit
brought in Missouri by the Waters
Pierce inter"" against the Standard
in which the yod faith OF the dissolu-
ton of the Standard Oil Company is
questioned.
Rockefeller and John d. Archibald,
another star witness, were not on hand
and their representative announced
they would come when wanted, but did
not want to waste time waiting to be
called. Untermeyer told A. L. Jacobs,
of St Louis, commissioner in charge Of
the proceedings, that he would want
the pair tomorrow, and they will be
notified to be on hand when their tes-
timony will be taken.
The chief witness Of the morning ses-
sion was Charles T. White, secretary
of the Standard Oil Company of New
Jersey, and his testimony was of q
technical character. He gave the his
tory of the company and details of Vari-
GUS former subsidiaries of the Stand
ard.
The real contest is for control of the
Water 2ierec Company. H. Clay Pierce
at the annual meeting of that company
refused to recognize proxies held by
Standard Oil men, because he declared
they planned to gobble the company.
Suits to keep the Standard out OF
the Waters-Pierce were Instituted in
Missouri, and cross suits to oust Pierce
lieved today that during the hearings
here the entire good faith OF the So
called dissolution of the Standard OIL
Company will be threshed out.

Street Marks Time General Influences Favorable
LISTLESS, LIFELESS STOCK TRADING.
WITH ONLY NOMINAL PRICE
FLUCTUATIONS.

Crop reports are encouraging. The
Southern Pacific Union Pacific merger
case looms up at this time as likely
TO come from the Supreme Court and
the Coal decision as well. Traders
are waiting also for the New Jersey
primary results. Aside from politics
the market seems to be ready for a
rise, on the favorable influences.
Politics are not exactly to the liking
of the Street, the mixed outlook, and
the fear of further Democratic sue
cesses, checking speculation. All in
vestigations, actual and threatened,
have made the Street nervous, not
that anything has been developed ad.
verse to the market, but the continual
stirring up of business interests does
not trend to commercial aggression.
As the session advanced, sales came
over the ticker even slower than in the
opening hours, the leaders showing no
oftener than one, or two minutes inter.
walls. But the market seemed bit
stronger, practically recovering theif
earlier losses, and going into the last
hour of the afternoon nearly on level
with the closing figures of Saturday. A
few minor stocks were slightly lower.
The Washington times., 1912-05-27

NEW YORK. May 27.--All dominat-
ing, and the only self-evident feature
of the market was Its extreme dull
ness.
There was neither activity in any of
the leaders, nor did any of the spec
ialties, which have so often relieved
duh market from mediocrity, show
any life.
with the immediate opening indica-
tions were rather favorable as some
quotations predicted latent strength
and slight advances, but within ten
minutes the gains had vanished and
slightly lower prices were estab-
lished, the market then huctuated
slowly within a narrow range.
encouragement was found in the
statement that general business con-
tinues in large volume despite politi-
cal uncertainties. orders for railroad
equipment and rails are coming In
freely, including to date 100000 tons
of rails, $500 cars, 315 locomotives,
and $1,000 tons Of bridge steel. Gen.
eral business Is very good.
