RADIUM RAYS BOTTLED
Emanations May Now Be Pur
chased and Used for Cures.
nv cable 10 The TrIbune.


London. Oct "a discovery of far
reaching importance to medical science
was announced at the Radium Insti-
tute yesterday by Sir Frederick Treves
Briefly, experts working at the insti-
tute have succeeded in bottling radium
emanations in such way that they
can be used for curative purposes in
place of radium itself.
Hitherto treatment by radium has
been limited to comparatively few
cases. owing to the enormous price OF
the medium, but in future the doctor
will be able to obtain bottled rays AT
small cost, using them in exactly the
same way and with the same results as
in the case Of radium itself.
Furthermore, a way has been found
of charging water with the emanations'
and remarkable cures have been effect
ed by its means.
In order that the work of the insu-
tute may be extended, Lord lveagh and
Sir Ernest Cassel. through whose gen
erosity II was built and equipped, have
purchased the whole Of one side OF the
street on which it stands.

Canal Experts Confident.

The history OF earthquakes in Pan
anna during the last 200 years shows
that disturbances in the neighboring
Republic Of Costa Rica are rarely per-
ceptible in this part of the lsthmus,
and that a shock in this locality does not
usually extend to Costa Rica. Further
more. the movement generally reaches
its maximum intensity in the Province
of Los Santos.
Canal experts have always pinned
great faith to the fact that no quake
has ever occurred strong enough to
shake down the famous fiat arch which
has stood in Panama for 10 years.
The consulting board of engineers ap-
pointed in 1909 to go over the lock
plans cited this fact, and one OF the
conclusions of the board was: I'VE do
not regard such shocks as a source OF
serious danger to any type OF canal on
the Isthmus.'
While a number OF seismic disturb
ances have been recorded here since the
American occupation, the earthquake

London. oct. 2.-The Radium lnsti-
tute announced tonight the discovery
of the fact that the emanation of gas
given off by radium is as efficient for
curative purposes as radium itself. A
method has also been discovered
whereby the gas can be conveyed to
medical men throughout the country
for use among their own patients.
The gas. although given off constant
ly. does not weaken the parent sub
stance. The institute has only four
grams Of radium in its possession,
but the use of the gas will increase its
utility enormously.

The Insular Police Of Porto Rico. by
raiding the home and place OF busi-
ness Of a prominent merchant Of San
Juan. have dealt a death blow TO the
lottery evil on the island. according
to private messages received in this
city yesterday from the Porto Rican
capital.
The arrest of Manuel Cerecedo as
the head of the lottery traffic on the
island and the evidence in the hands
of the police will be the subject of a
report by Governor Cotton to the State
Department. The Governor will arrive
here tomorrow on board the steamship
Coamo. which left San Juan Wednes-
day. He will go TO Washington at
once and make the report in person.
For three years Captain George r
Stanton, chief of the lnsular Police,
and Captain ST. Elmo. Of the detec-
tive bureau, have been trying TO run
down the Porto Rico manager and
agents Of the Padre Billini Lottery
Company, of Santo Domingo. a con-

about 100000 a year. Most OF this
money was given to the lottery agents

Traps Set for Agents.
The lottery agents were strongly IN
trenched, and despite the traps set Tor
them by Captain Shanton and Captain
st. Elmo no evidence could be obtained
that would even call for an arrest,
much less procure a conviction.
Several days ago the evidence these
officials sought was found in the home
and place of business Of Manuel Cere-
cedo, one of the richest men OF san
Juan and senior member Of the hrm OF
Cerecedo Hermanos y Cia.
The raids on Cerecedos home and
office were carefully planned. The de-
tectives who participated in II were

BY this action ST. Elmo diverted sus-

in san Juan. When the men arrived
Captain Shanton ordered them to re-
main in their automobile and drive at
once with him and st. Elmo 10 the
home Of anuel Cerecedo.
The policemen were then told for the
first time that the place was to be
raided for evidence. Hidden in the
drawer OF a desk which the detectives
broke open were found several hun
dred prize winning tickets, which had
been cashed by Cerccedo. and books
which it was alleged showed his ac-
counts with the lottery company and
his sub-agents.

 Unhappily for MT.

Past Seven Years Snc,W's Re markable Advance in
 Ideas of This Nature.
BRYAN IS DIFFERENT T
Is Running the Ship of State in An Entirely Different
 Course.
(By Sidney Epsey)

Washington, June 14-For the past seven years there has been a strong trend in the development of foreign policy by the United States, one link of which binds a multitude of diver gent and discordant tendencies to- gether--an advocacy of the idea of world peace as an amelioration of some of the hazards of warfare.
 In the popular mind, Secretary of State Bryan is turning the wheel of state in a radically different direc- tion from that ploted by his predeces- sor, Philander c. Knox, but the latter dollar diplomat that he was-gave his administration one or two touches of the idealism inaugurated when John Hay first formulated the "open door" policy for the Far East and placed this nation firmly against the was not given to chasing will O the wisps or to thinking the millennium lay just around the corner. To thousands of his fellow cOuntrymen he seemed to chain the State Department to the Wall Street chariot and make his office mere agency for cracking the whip over the heads of the turbulent Latin American republics at the behest of if nancers.}
 But MT. Knox was true to the Hay tradition. One of the first acts of his administration was a proposal for the naturalization of the Manchurian railroads, move which was plainly

department. No man would more deeply deplore bad blood between Jap an and America than he. He has spared no effort to show Japan the frendliness of the federal government and that his peace and good will' spirit has a genuine sincerity behind it.
 In a word. Secretary Bryan prob- ably will carry the enlightened, ideal istic policies of several Of his prede cessort, further than they ever have been carried. Hay evolved the 'open door" doctrines; Root extended the hand of fellowship to South Ameri- ca; knox tried to simplify conditions in the Far East. Nil. Bryan is de- stined to have an administration full of color and vitality. whatever else may De said about it.

ill the interest of justice of China and of international amity. The project fail. Neither Japan nor Russia was equal to the high altruism of the plan. It served. however, to focus at tention on the enlightened. disinter- ested character Of American diplo- macy, and to mark it as something apart from the highly sophisticated and intellectual selfishness which dominates certain European chancel- lories.
 Then Mr. Knox proposed certain eX- tensions of the Hague principle ill ar bitraitng international disputes, and his idea met with favor but has not yet been translated into an accom- plished fact.
 When he stepped out of the State Department and Mir. Bryan stepped in, the world was not nnprepared for a series of idealistic proposals. It was not disappointed. Finding in Presi- dent Wilson an idealist no less intense than himself the new secretary lost no time in identifying the American foreign policy with certain definite tendencies-one of them the surrender of all entanglng alliances in the Far East, and another vigorous campaign against militarism.
 The United States stepped out of the Chinese loan convention and recog- nized the Chinese republic in advance of any other nation-so much in ad- vance, in fact, that so far only one other nation-and that a minor South American republic-has joined her in the recognition. This move had no real significance in international poli- tics beyond the aim to encourage the Oriental trend to popular and Demo- cratic rule and against the despotism and autocracy which has so long throttled it's development.
 Then came the keynote of the Bryan doctrine, the 'peace plan" which, in the eyes of many hard-headed observ- CTS of world affairs, belongs to the cloister of the doctrinaire and not to the realm of real politics. MT. Bryan proposes nothing less than to hold two nations, ready to fly at each others threats. apart, so that they "can think it over' While they are cogitating before loosing the dogs of war, all movement towards mobolizing opDos- ing fleets or assembling military forces must cease. Even the manu- fracture of ammunition, the ordinary
