Refers to, Other Nations.

After reading the rule of the treaty
specifying equal treatment Of all nations.
Senator Jones continued:
'It is plain to me that this rule refers
to nations others than the United States.
The United States stands on one side as
the maker of these rules. The other ma
tionS OF the earth are those who stand on
the other side and who are to observe the
rules and for whose observance the rules
are made. This is the natural and or
binary construction to give to this Ian
guage in connection with the preceding
declaration that the United States adopts
these rules.
1T is a rule made by the United States
for and under which all others nations or
all nations, If you please. observing the
rules shall be admitted to the use of the
canal, so that when the United States
says that the canal shall be free and
open to the vessels of commerce and OF
war of all nations observing these rules
Ii is the same as the ferryman saying
that all persons paying him % cents will
be transported across the stream on which
his ferry operates, and there is nothing
that makes ii a discrimination against
any of these nations to permit our veS-
sells to go through the canal upon diff
ferent terms any more than 1t would be
for the ferryman to carry himself across
WITHOUT charge"

Purely Domestic Question.

1t was the further argument of Senator
Jones that the question OF granting free
tolls to American ships using this water
way was purely a domestic question.
Under the plain terms OF the treaty
we are not prohibited from giving a pref
erence to our own ships, and by reason of
the changed conditions not contemplated
in the making of the treaty by which the

law which must be repealed il free tolls

Senator Jones urged free tolls for
American vessels because, in his opinion
the tolls will fall upon the consuming
public, and as its money had gone to
build the canal its burdens should not
be increased through its operation. He
also urged free tolls as a regulator of
roads.

WASHER GETS SIXTY DAYS

NEW YORK. Special.-When Katie
Houlihan, sixteen years old, of 1O1
Ninth Avenue, was walking in Eighth
Avenue near Fifty-sixth Street, Satur-
day night with her married sister,
Mary, two men spoke to them. Both
women struck out with their fists and
for moment startled their insulters.
But one of the fellows returned
Mary's blows and knocked her to the
ground. Then he ran.
Katie, however, stuck to her fight
and pressed her antagonist so vigor-
ously that he did not have q chance to
run away. A policeman ended the
battle by arresting him.
In the West Side Court Sunday the
prisoner said that he was James Kelly,
of EOS West Sixtieth Street. He said
the man who had run away was to
blame for the whole affair, but Magis-
trate House sent him to the Work
house for sixty days and commended
Katie for her battle.

BABE, ARE YOU MAN
OR APE? DO TELL US!

BALTIMORE, MD Special On
Babe, a cute little monkey that
grimaces at visitors at the Biological
Laboratory of the Johns Hopkins Uni
Versity rests the responsibility OF de-
termining whether his race is, or is
not, related to the human tribe.
There has hardly been an hour
since he came into this world several
weeks ago that he has not been under
the close surveillance of learned scien-
lists. In the effort to forge Babe into
the missing link between the ape and
man, DR.. John E. Watson, director
of the Psychological Laboratory, is
the moving spirit, and it is under his
direction that all the experiments are
being made.
Before Babe drew his first breath
OF life in the laboratory his parents
had been watched for months. They
were intelligent apes and were nat
urally presumed to be the proper pa
rents of a probably more than usually
intelligent offspring.
But Babe is being trained in hu-
man ways, and presently, when it is
feasible to take him from the care
of his mother, it is planned to make
his schooling still more elaborate. If
1T is found that he can be taught to do
things human-like every effort will
be made to develop his mind along
lines that will fairly tax his mental
capacity to assimilate human knoWl-
edge.

SHOWS DECREASE
POPULAR EDUCATION Is SECRET
OF RECORD. HEALTH OFF,
RIG n MoND. vA.-special

r l II NJ o n ID, VA.-Special.-
August statistics of typhoid fever in
Virginia. just received at the State
Board of Health and compared with
the figures for the preceding two
months, show decrease OF 1871 cases
over the record OF 1911 and indicate
mat during the past summer typhoid
in rural Virginia has been cut in half
The result of the August tabula-
ton was awaited with much interest
10y health officers. Figures for June
and for July Of the present year ha0
shown that there was far less fever
than IN 1911, and there was hope that
III the August figures were satisfac-
tory, Virginia might achieve a unique
record in reducing its typhoid fever.
Some concern was felt. however. as
several small outbreaks had been re-
ported in August and as the season
had not been especially favorable. The
figures arranged yesterday, however.
fully bore out the hopes Of health
workers. In August, 1911. 6S9 ply
Sicians reported to the Board of
Health 1.042 cases Of typhoid. In
August OF the present year, on the
same OASIS, 6Sl cases were reported.
As there was a reduction of 800
cases in June, 1912. and 1.0OS cases in
July, 1912, as compared with the same
months for the preceding year. the
aggregate reduction for these has been
d L
cases in the three months of 1911. As
these figures are from the reports of
less than half the physicians in the
State, IT is believed that the total de-
crease in typhoid during the last three
months will reach 5000 cases.
At the office of the Board Of Health.
the reduction in typhoid was freely
discussed yesterday. speaking in
round numbers" said an officer of
the board, 1T is safe to say that there
n aWnsra
hat as much typhoid fever as there
was in 1911. Some Of this decline of
course, is due to the comparative
mid season, but statistics from other
states show that in the best and mild
est seasons, the decrease is never more
than twenty per cent below the nor
mai. The greater part of this de-
cline must be attributed to the edu-
cation of the people. They have
learned how typhoid is spread and
applyin in their homes the funda-
mentals of sanitation. One has only
TO traverse rural Virginia to see the
great Improvement in the crucial
matters, sanitary Outbuildings and
sanitary wells. II is n tribute to the
people of Virginia that they have ac-
copied the truths Of modern santa
ton and have achieved this record.
The full benefits of what has been
done can only be repeated by care
'hIOuShOut the year Neglect of pre-
cautions will always be followed bv
outbreaks, daily regard for the few
essentials will insure good health. If
the Virginia people continue to i'm
prove their methods of sewage dis
posal, their water supplies ana their
milk. We may expect still further de-
clines in typhoid. Preventab BILE dis
ease is in direct proportion TO care
lesSneSS."
The field laboratSry of the Board
of Health. which has been located in
Roanoke, has about finished its inves-
LEGATIONS. but the experts of the board
are still studying the outbreaks re-
ported.
