they did with little reluctance, as fire
underwriting has meant loss of
money in Missouri for many years past
for many companies But the situation
was later complicated by ruling OF
the Supreme Court Of Missouri that
fire insurance companies must not quit
business in that State; that if they
did undertake to quit, their torfeits
would be made extremely severe. And
so the situation rests, with the next
move on the part of the insurance COM
panies.

insurance companies as "the worst

BULGARIA ACCEPTS DISCIPLINE

The reason for Bulgaria s sudden
cry for peace is now abundantly evi
dent. Bulgaria might fairly have had
an idea that she was match for Ser
via and Greece combined, for, as we
showed III the summing up of the re.
spectlve forces on Tuesday. the align
ment of Greece and Servia against Bull
garia made the forces about equal; but
now that Rumania has declared war on
Bulgaria. the forces opposing Bulgaria
are two TO one against her. Therefore.
her chances for victory have complete,
~ vanished. Bulgaria has no troops at
all TO oppose to the Rumanian inva-
sion, all her forces being fully en-
ployed in the war against Servia and
Greece.
As we have pointed out hitherto, the
hand Of Car Nicholas of Russia is
very plain in this result When the
Russian Car sent his identical note TO
Bulgaria and Servia that he would hold
responsible to the Slav race the power
that began war among the Balkan
states he was answered by Bulgaria
in words that meant that il would be
we'll for him TO attend to his own busi-
ness. At that time Bulgaria appears TO
have been in communication with Aus
tria, which encouraged the Bulgarian
court TO begin the second war Russia s
maneuver in response to Bulgaria was
10 nclte Rumania to attack Bulgaria
from the north, in the rear. Rumania
was eager 10 do this, and had been ever
since last fall when the war began;
for there is certain triangular piece
of land south of the Danube and reach
ing from point on that river near
Silistria 10 the Black Sea, which Ru-
mania considers ought TO belong to her,
and thought she was defrauded when it
was taken away from her in the adjust
ment of the boundaries between Ruma
mia and Bulgaria by the congress of
Berlin in 1878. And so it was easy
enough for the Gar of Russia to play
Rumania against Bulgaria, for Ruma-
MIA was moro than willing to act, and
as soon as Bulgaria found that Ruma-
MIA in fact meant business, Bulgaria
besought the powers Of Europe to bring
about peace in the Balkans,
1t had evidently been the opinion of
the Bulgarian court that the award as
between Rumania and Bulgaria, on the
arbitration Of Russia, which gave Ru
mania part of the coveted tract in
dispute. would hold Rumania entirely
neutral until the final peace was de-
clared, Bulgaria had evidently ar
ranged with the Turks to have no In
terfercnce from Turkey; therefore, Bull
gara considered herself secure III de-
flying the Car of Russia and in open
ing war against the Greeks and the
Servians; but Russia, always fertile of
expedients, has quickly
brought Bulgaria to terms through the
instrumentality of Rumana. And now,
since Bulgaria has lost the swelling
from her head, she is probably willing
to listen TO reason, rs reason is inter
prctcd at the Russian Imperial Court.

SIX MONTHS FIRE LOSSES.

The fire losses in this country and
Canada for the half year that has
passed of 1918, carry the losses up to
just about the normal figures. These
yearly fire losses do not vary much
from S235, 900 900, The losses for the
half year of 1918 are almost exactly
half Of that, being stated in the com
Commerce and Commercial Bulletin at
Sis, S,245,650, This sum is rather less
than for the first SIX months of 1912
which amounted to 1882, ,450, and
less also than the first six months of
1911, which amounted to Sl29,691 ,750
But the losses for the full year Of
1911 amounted to $234 1897 ,250, while
those Of 1912 amounted TO 1925 800 900.
this being the smallest yearly loss hith-
erto reported; although the year 1912
began with unprecedented losses in
January and February,
During June of this year there were
338 fires which resulted each in an es-
timatcd property loss of $4,000 or

Cautious Statement Given Out

ing Alleged Remedy for Tu-
bercuIoSis,
Nv .oan,no ,ousrAl spsolAl lrAsrO wiarl


Washington, May 9.-The public
health observations. so far, into the
patients lnoculated by Dr.. f. f. Fried
mann with his tuberculosis vaccine,
do not Justify that confidence in the
remedy which has been inspired by
widespread publicity" In the opinion
Of the surgeons who have conducted
the government invt stigation.
This first authentic and official CON
ciusion from the tests was announced
here today to the National Association
for the study and Prevention of Tu-
berculosis by DR. f. Anderson. di-
rector Of the governments hygienic
laboratory, and DR.. A. NJ Stimson, an
other public health surgeon. who were
detailed to observe the progress of the
Friedman patients at Mount Sinai
hospital in New York
I'VE believe that at the present
time" says their report, I'VE are not
as yet in position to express an opin-
ion based on the present condition
under observation.
I'VE must not lose sight of the pos
sible therapeutic value of this prep
aration and on the other hand II Is
necessary to guard against too great
optimism in respect to its merits.
without presenting in detail the con
dition Of patients under observation
we are In a position to state that the
facts thus far observed do not justify
that confidence in the remedy which
has been inspired by widespread pub
licity
In our series Of patients. Or. Fried
mann has almost exclusively made use
of the intramuscular method alone in
pulmonary cases and a very consider
able proportion OF them have either
developed no considerable infiltrate at
all or have suffered from abscess for
nations. 1t is evident, therefore. that
a very considerable portion Of these
patients may expect their treatment
at the hand of DR., friedman to ex-
tend over a long period.
Concerning the cultures submitted
to us we may state that n series of
experiments Is under way. The ba-
cillus has been found to be an acid
fast organism having properties quite
different from those of any tubercule
bacillus with which we are acquaint-
ed. II appears to be identical with an
organism cultivated from a few loop
fulls of the material used for injection
which DR.. Friedman permitted us to
place on culture media in his pres
ence. We requested DR.. Friedman to
furnish us with a large amount of this
for examination but this he
has declined to do"
Immediately after the presentation
of the public health service report, a
resolution was unanimously adopted
declaring 1t to be the judgment Of the
that mo specific cure for
tuberculosis had yet been discovered
to warrant the confidence of the pub
lie or the medical profession.
