WARNING is ISSUED
AGAINST RAW PORK
Department of Agriculture Calls At
tention to Danger Of Trichinosis
In Bulletin.

WASHINGTON, Dec, 2l.-To pre-
vent the spread of trichinosis, a dread
disease little known TO the American
people, the department Of agriculture
issued tonight a warning against the
consumption of raw or uncooked pork
products, which are said to be tho
source Of the ,naIady. In many dis
tricts of the country, particularly In
sections with large foreign populations,
the statement said, large quantities Of
pork are consumed in the Christmas
season, resulting frequently In cases
of seriously impaired health, If not in
fatalities.
The department asserts that in No
vember and December, 1911, there
were fifty-eight cases of tricbinosis that
terminated fatally in one California
community. In each instance the dis
case was traced to uncooked sausage,
Other outbreaks of tho disease with
many fatalities are cited.
The disease is caused By a parasite
or worm. microscopic in size, found in
hog flesh, and there is no known meth
cd of treatment. Statistics based upon
iuspections by government scientists
for nine wears show that 1.4l per cent
Of the 100000 hogs examined wore
infected with trichinosIs.

2l.-lncoming steamers bring terrible
details Of the recent volcanic eruptions
on the island of Ambrim. in the New
Herbrldes group, in which 500 natives
lost their lives. Witnesses Of the dis

sudden and violent that they expected
to see the whole western side Of the
island disappear.
With a terrific roar, which was fol-
lowed by a rapid succession Of artil-
lery-llke detouations, all the craters of
the volcano entered into full activity.

ing out huge boulders, Great streams
OF lava soon were rushing down the
slopes, cutting OFF the villagers from
escape. In one instance two torrents
of the molten mass Joined and made an
island Of one entire section of vii
lage. Here fifty or sixty persons per-
ished.
The scenes at night were awe-inspir-
ing. Flames shot into the air to a
height of a thousand feet, illuminating
the whole scene of destruction. The
ocean seemed to boil as huge super.
heated masses Of stone fell into the
sea and streams of lava poured into
the bay. Dust from the craters grad
ually formed black cloud which
blotted out the light Of the stars.
The bay after the eruption was filled
with dead fish and large numbers Of
dead turtles. The water in the river
was hot.
The British hospital buildings were
wiped out OF existence, but previous to
their destruction the doctors pluckily
removed all the patients to launch
and escaped with them.

BINGHAM. Dec. 2I-EXcitsment has
given place to monotony in the Lopez

within the mine where Lopez is believed

ings and shut II off from the rest of the
Apex mine.
Noise OF falling gravel was heard in the
Andy tunnel beyond the bulkhoad early
yesterday morning. Whether il was
caused by movements OF the hunted man
within or by rats scurrying along the
untimbered places of the tunnel, the
guards could only conjecture.
The possibility that the Mexican may
have been supplied in some manner with
non-perishable foodstuffs before the bulk
heads shut him in, is ono that is caus-
Ing concern among those who are still
engaged in the hunt. An effort To find
out it such is the case is being made by
those who know the miners who were
employed I'm the Andy workings.
Should Lopez be in the prison into
which the mine has been turned, some
believe that II he is left to die there he
will perhaps fight his fnal battle with
the rats. which are numerous In the
workings. 1t was explained that the ami
mails would doubtless become bolder as
the man became weaker and might pos
sibly attack him before death came from
starvation. or might nutlate the body
after death.
Though no definite information is be-
Ing given out as TO the plans for opening
the mine, IL is generally believed now that
the bulkheads will not be removed until |
after Christmas and perhaps not before |
the flrst of the year. or the two methods |

''Of course, 1t goes without saying that
these predictions are based upon the
maintenance upon our statute books Of
the present Panama canal law which
evlnces a determination to enforce a

to discuss the question Of rate regulation
and consequent rate reduction. That Is
conceded practically already.
There are also those who deny that
the canal Will in any way further the
construction OF American vessels. But
there are already evidences that private
