CHINA LOAN GROUP
ENDED, THEY THINK
President Wilson's Action
Means Dissolution, the
View in London.

LONDON, March 21-While the
opinion prevails in the London Stock
Exchange that the other five powers
will continue negotiations with re-
gard to the loan to China in spite of
the withdrawal of the United States.
political circles tend to the view that
President Wilson's action means the
dissolution of the group.
The Daily News, which has been a
consistent opponent of the group,
takes the latter view and expresses
the hope that the other powers will
follow the United States and with
draw their support. The News con-
tinues:
President Wilson's action is more
valuable because it belongs to a gen.
eral policy and he means to have
nothing more to do with dollar di-
plomacy, which makes the foreign
offices instruments of international
finance"
The Morning Post, also inferring
that PRECEDENT Wilson's action means
an end of dollar diplomacy" says.
Whatever they may wish, the
Democrats are unable to escape the
responsibilities which rest on their
country in Central America. Politf-
cal and military Adventures in small
republics pay little heed to mere ex-
hortation, and if the President does
not wish to continue the Republican
policy he will have to find other
means of enforcing his will"

BETTER THAN BUTTER.

Cream aud butter are not above sus-
piclou of harboring germs of disease.
Secretary Wilson reports that of the !
creameries visited by Inspectors in the
Department of Agriculture more than :
nine tenthS were unsanitary" /.
and that over two fIfths of tho
S.l54 lots of cream inspected ?

ports that nearly three.fourths of the /
creameries fail to pastcurize the milk t
from which the butter cream is taken,
this expensive stuff may have been
conveying the germs Of bovine tue !
bercuiosis. typhoid, and other dis
eases to the stomachs OF young
children and adults. Since the report
on July II, 1871, by the British Royal
Commission appointed to inquire into
the relations of human and ,animal
tuberculosis, no doubt has remained
as 20 the commuDlcablilty OF this
disease from cows to children. OF

isn't 1t q fact that the soldiers

The dashing general. whose career
has been so crowded with adventure
of one sort and another. leaned back
and smiled amusedly.
Scarcely similar, I should say he

He added that while there were

that all the additional employees he

plumber at all, was defended by the
general as a good workman, who had
saved many dollars for the home.
II have the plumbing bills for three

are: To October 81 1910, $S6s.39; to

The menus served at the home. as
described by witnesses yesterday aft

as follows:
For nurses-Hash, smothersd with
fried cockroaches.
For veterans-Corned beef and cab
bage, alternated with pork and beans.
For General Grub and other off,

OLD FIRE HORSE DID
NOT FORGET HIS PART

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, March 21.-
Not long ago a fire horse was brought
in from the farm. a horse 36 years
old. that had not had harness on
his back for II years. This horse
used to pun the fire chiefs wagon
He had the faculty of getting under
the shafts quicker than ever any
horse did that stood on four feet.
He never made a mistake, never a
false move. By the time the driver
was in the wagon the horse was
ready to go, and when he went he
went on the high speed. So behold

The horse was sbarefooted. his main

At a signal the gong was sounded.

The cook explained further that the
