SPREAD infant MALAOY'
Flies Carry Paralysis Germ,
Scientists Show by Mon
key Tests.

That flies are carriers of the germ of in
fantile paralysis has been definitely de-
termined. it is announced by DIR. John +.
Anderson, director of the hygienic labora-
tory. and Passed Assistant Surgeon Wade
II. Frost in n series of experiments con-
Quoted on monkeys. reports of which have
just been forwarded to the United States
public health service The conclusions
reached by DR.. Anderson and DR.. Frost
confirm the work done by DR.. Milton J..
ROsenau, formerly of the public health
service, but now member of the faculty
of Harvard University.
The report gives the result of expert
ments with three monkeys which, after
being exposed to the bites of flies which
at the same time were allowed daily to
bite two monkeys inOculated with virus
of the disease. developed typical symp-
toms or polelyelitis seven. eight and nine
days, respectively. from the date of their
first exposure. In each the dag
nosis was confirmed by an autopsy. Fur
Their experiments will be necessary 10 de-
tcrmine whether this Is the only usual
method of transmission of the malady.
Results of studies by Dr. Mark w.
Richardson, secretary of the MaSSachu-
sets board of ht alth first led TO the sus-
picion that stable flies were carriers of
this disease.

COAL SCARCE IN CAPITAL
Car Shortage on Railroads
Nav Cause Prices to
Increase.

Washington coal dealers stated today
that the annual fall shortage of cars Is
bringing about something resembling
coal famine in this city. The railroads.
according to 1.-THE local dealers in coal.
are using all available cars for trans
porting crops to market. and as a result
comparatively little coal is being handled
by the roads.
Prices for the various grades OF coal
used in Washington. 1t is stated. have not
advanced as yet, but continuance of
present conditions is likely to bring about
q general increase. The only changes
noted thus far are in the better grades
OF soft coal and in stove-size anthracite,
each of which are about % cents ton
higher than at this time last year. Other
sizes of anthracite, such as egg, nut and
pea. remain at former prices.
Practically all of the coal now coming
into Washington, it was stated today,
has been contracted for since last spring
or summer. and dealers are simply doing
the best they can to fill these lonG-stand-
Ing orders.
Stocks are becoming depleted, and ,n-
less the car shortage eases up and it be-
comes possible to haul coal in quantities
within IL week or so II IS believed Il gen
eral advance in prices will be unav0id
able.

THREE YEARS FOR GRAY
Sentenced to the Penitentiary
for Forging Signature
to Check.

Oden b. Gray. former bookkeeper for a
local financial institution, who was ac-
quilted three years ago on Il charge OF
securing 5000 from the bank by draw
ing checks on dormant accounts, was
sentenced today by Justice Stafford TO
serve three years in the penitentiary on
his plea of guilty to forging the name of
his brother to check for $50.
Counsel for Gray sought to have him
placed on probation, but after consider
ing the matter for two weeks. Justice
Stafford decided that he must impose a
sentence in the penitentiary The jus
tice said it would be a farce to put Cray
on probation, and expressed regret that
he had to impose sentence.
Gray appealed for clemency, telling the
court that he had served six months at
Occoquan on charge of false pretenses
caused by drink. When there he had
taken pledge to refrain from liquor he
said, Which he had kept for several
months. He promised to make u min of
