Washington. ID. c., May 9.--The pub
lie health service observations so far
into the conditions Of the patients in
ocnlated by DR.. f. T. Friedman, with
his tuberculosis vaccine. do not Justify
that confidence in the remedy which has
been inspired by widespread publicity,
in the opinion OF surgeons who have
the governments insestlga-
ton.
This first authoritative and official
conclusion was announced to-day before
the National Association for the Study
and Prevention OF tuberculosis. by Drs.
John + Anderson, director OF the gov.
ernment hygenic laboratory, and A. N.
Stimson, public health surgeon, detailed
to observe the Friedman patients
DR.. Friodmann' reluctance TO furnish
certain details was not satisfactory to
the Investigators from scientific stand
point and the reports say the opinion
Is further expressed that harm has been
done BY undue publicity insofar as il
has lessened the confidence of tuber-
culosis patients in the well recognized
methods of treatment and has interrupt

Worcester. Mass, May 9.--Between
500 and 400 track men employed on the
Worcester section OF the Boston & Al
bany railroad went on strike yesterday
for an increase in pay from Sl.75 to ~
day. For a time it looked as il there
might be trouble and squad of 10
policemen was detailed to see that the
crowd, mostly foreigners, did not cut
loose.
The difficulty started with gang OF
men who were ordered to board work

stick to- his Job was struck over the
bead with a shovel and his scalp laid
open so badly that DR. Kendall Emerson
was called to sew up the wound.
The strikers quickly passed the word
among the other foreigners at work on
the grade crossing job and elsewhere
along the line so that by noon there was
nothing doing in the way OF work. Word
of the trouble was telephoned to the
company headquarters in Boston and
some OF the officials came up yesterday
afternoon and had conference with a
committee of the strikers and il was re-
ported last night that vast majority

HIS WEALTH OFFERED.
In Case Country Should Need the Vast
Morgan Resources.

New York. May 9.-"When you see
Mr.. Wilson tell him for me that if there
should ever come a time when he thinks
auy influence or resources that ! have
can be used for the country they are
wholly at his disposal"
These were the last words OF J. T.
Morgan spoken to Col George Harvey
on the day before Mr.. Morgan sailed Tor
Europe never to return alive. Ihey
were spoken in the finaneier's library,
and were related publicly for the first
time last night in an address by Colonel
Harvey before a gathering Of bankers
and other representative men at dinner
OF the trust companies of America. Mr.
Morgan was a Republican and in the
words of Colonel Harvey not only re
oarded the political views advanced by
Mr.. Wilson with honest apprehension
but never considered the Democratic
party fully capable of governing this
nation. His message to the new presl-
dent Colonel Harvey cited as measur-
ing the depths of the mans patriotism.
Because of contrary proclivities OF my
own as to Mr.. Wilson, | frankly dld
not seek opportunities to discuss public
affairs with Mr.. Morgan during the past
few years" said Colonel Harvey.
But the election had taken place, the
inevitable had happened. and. using
Speaker Cannon's phrase, Mr.. Wilson had
become his president as much as mine,
perhaps, in fact, little more. Anyhow,
there was no constraint upon our con-
versation when | saw him for the last
time in his library on the day before he
went away. He was optimistic as ever
regarding the country, and | naturally
spoke hopefully of the prospects of the
incoming administration.
"Then followed this curious episode.
Suddenly turning those piercing eyes
upon me, Mr.. Morgan said: DO you re-
member that American speech you made

II was not a speech, only few suecinct

ceding day. as il happened, / had intro
