Hearing on the habeas corpus pro-
ceeS;ng of Albert S. Connolly. who
claims to be illegally detained in custody
because of charges made by him against
Senator Warren of Wyoming. was con-
tinued today by Justice Wright until to-
morrow. Assistant Corporation Counsel

fully in custody. He asked for two days
to put the answer in chape.
Mr.. Stephens intimated that the an
swer to the writ would be that Connolly
is held for observation rs to his mental
condition. on the affidavit of two physi-
clans that Connolly is possessed of delu-
SionS.
s Attorney NJ. +. ORrien opposed the
delay asked by Mr.. Stephens. and the
court compromised by setting the hear

PLAN TO USE SHEEP
IN WARFARE ON TICK
Pests Breed in Bitterr0ot VAL
ley and Spread the Spot
ted Fever.

The free grazing of 2.IcD head of sheep
upon the Bitterroot national forest, in
the state of Montana. has been author
lied by the Secretary of Agriculture as
part of a novel experiment in trapping
the deadly spotted fever tick. The forest
service and the public health service are
working together in cooperation with
local sheep growers in this new cam
paign.
1t is the general belief of the leading
medical authorities that the mysterious
and frequently fatal disease commonly
known as spotted fever is spread by the
tick Dermacentor anderson, which, in
parts of the Bitterroot forest. occurs in
such abundance that 1t constitutes IL real
menace to man and beast

Discussing the question OF official en-
DasSy buildings in foreign countries,
justice Gerard said that he had hopes
that the United States would make pro-
vision for such buildings in the near
future. He said he did not mean this
statement to be taken to signify that he
is seeking such a charge merely for
himself, but that he thought it is a poll
cy that the United States should adopt.

Surgeon Lost His Life.

Surgeon McClintic of the public health
service died last year of spotted fever
contracted during his study of the dis
ease and its control.
The plan proposed contemplates the
prazing of two bands of sheep upon the
narts of the forest where the tick is most
abundant. with the idea that large num-
hers of the ticks viii attach themselves
IN the sheep Then, as occasion requires
.ha sbaen will be freed of the ticks by
being dipped in an insecticide solution,
which will kill the ticks without IN any
way in juring the sheep.
The engorging of the female tick with
blood is one of the essential functions of
ranroduction. and this gorglng must OF
necessity take place upon the larger
mammals. which serve as hosts to the
tick.
Sheep Easiest to Handle.
the limited States biological survey has
reached the conclusion that the great
hulk of the fever ticks when become
filled with blood get their supply Whlie
