REAL HOG CHOLERA
WORK IS NOW BEING
DONE BY OFFICIALS
SIX MEN ARE IN THE FIELDS
CONSTANTLY TREATING HOGS
OF THE COUNTY.
DISEASE OF vIRULENT TYPE
Farmers Have Heard of the Work and
Are Awaiting Themselves of the
Help of the Government Experts in
Stamping Out Dreaded Scourge.

But few realize the extent of the
work that is pelng done by the rep
resentatives of the government in
Graduating hog cholera from this
county. Since the furore that was
raised over their coming has died
down, many have even forgotten that
they were here, and that the really
vital part of their work is now being
done.
Yet there is not a day that the
whole force of six men is not in the
fields of Maury county inoculating
some hogs or cleaning up the premis-
es to prevent the further spread of
this awful menace to the hogs of the
county. They are out from 6 o'clock
in the morning until late in the even
ing. They have gone about their
work unostentatiously, answering
calls and searching from one end of
the county to the other in quest of
the disease.
They have found plenty of it and
in the most virulent form, too. Dr..
O'Connor, who is in charge of the
government force, states that he has
never seen it in more deadly form
than it is here. 1t is absolutely nee
essary to get to it early in order for
the serum to be effective. Some farm
ers have not realized this, and have
allowed their hogs to run for some
days with it, some of them actually
dying before they notified the ottic-
ials that they had cholera on their
farms.
The disease seems to be great
deal worse this, fall than it was in the
summer. At first not many calls
were received at the central office,
but now it is with difficulty that they
can answer all of them. The news
of the actual work has spread among
the farmers and they have been con-
siderably more prompt of late to tel
ephone for the experts to come to
see their hogs than they were at
first, when they believed that it cost
them something.

two vessels pursue parallel courses,
moving slowly along. When there is
a dragging of the wire, the men know
they have snagged a mine. Slowly
the two boats converge and the Ger
man internal machine is drawn to the
surface, where one shot from the
nearby destroyer explodes it and one
more menace to Shipping is removed.
Contact mines already have played
big part in the European war.
When hostilities began, and perhaps
even before that, the Germans mined
all of their harbors and strewed
mines all over the North Sea.
Since then two British cruisers,
several merchant vessels and count
less North Sea trawlers have been
sunk by the silent, hidden messen-
ic justice when a German torpedo
boat destroyer hit one of the German
mines and was blown to atoms. In
all several hundred lives have been
lost through submarine mines since
the war began, and doubtless there
will be many more, because it is inn
possible for the British mine sweep
ers to drag the whole North Sea for
mines, and also the German mine
planters are still at work.

WILSON OBJECTS
ONLY TO METHOD
GARDNER ADVISES
President Declares He Is Not
Opposed to Disclosing Facts
of Readiness for War.

WASHINGTON. Dec S.-President
Wilson told callers today he favored
the disclosure of all facts connected
with the preparedness of the United
States for national defense, and be-
lieved that while the subject should
be discussed as fully as possible the
whole question hinged on the method
of Investigation. The commission
plan proposed by Representative
Gardner he disapproved.
The President said he had no spe-
cial knowledge of the existence OF
any lobby for stirring up military die
cussion at this time, but he intimated
he believed there was such an organ
lied effort. He declared that his cor
respondenee shows widespread oppo-
sition to amy efforts to involve the
United States in militarist move
ment. The President refused TO say
whether he believed partisanship en-
tered into the efforts to investigate
the question because he thought par
tisanship should not be mentioned by
government officials in connection
with a subject concerning foreign re-
lationS.

Palace Ballroom last night TO pay
tribute to Mayor-elect Thomas L.
Raymond at a testimonial dinner giv-
en- in his honor by the Citizens
League of the city of Newark. 1t was
an enthusiastic gathering of its kind,
one of the largest ever held in this
city.
Industrial, business and financial
life of Newark were represented.
Members of every political party and
of every faction Of every party were
seated at the tables. The affair was
partisan one in every particular.
There was not hitch or slip in the
program. Every plan was carried out
smoothly and systematically, and all
combined to bestow upon Mayor elect
Raymond a tribute of honor and an
expression of confidence.
Plenty of office-seekers and job
hunters attended the dinner for per-
sonal purposes, but these were, fig
uratively speaking, lost in the shuttle.
William A. Prendergast, comptroller
of New York city, and Mayor-elect
Raymond, the guest of honor, were
the principal speakers. Nathan
Kussy, toastmaster; former Governor

Augustus V. Hamburg, president of
the Board of Trade, were the other
speakers.
During the course of his address
Mr. Raymond called Spaulding Fra

platform and introduced him as the
next city counsel of Newark. The
announcement was greeted with an
outburst of applause.

ORDERS ROBINSON
BOY INDICTED FOR
MANSLAUGHTER
Chief Justice Charges Grand
Jury in Death of Baudendis-
tel Under Car.

Chief Justice Gummere, in charg-
ing the new grand jury today at the
opening of the December term of
court, directed that an indictment for
mans,aughter be returned against
Thomas Robinson, the eighteen-year-
old newshoy who pushed Albert Ban
dendistel. of 8 South Fifth street,
Harrison, under trolley car on No
vember II at Bridge and Broad
streets, causisng his death under the
car
Il don't believe that the Robinson
boy had any thought OF fatal re-
suit said the chief Justice, when
he pushed the other lad off the safety
zone, but that does snot excuse him
from criminal responsibility. His act
in pushing him off the platform in
itself is an assault He is guilty of
involuntary manslaHghter. and ii is
the duty of the grand jury to find an
indictment.
Robinson is mentally deficient. but
even that does not excuse him. Chlet
Justice Gunmere continued. THE
only thing that would excuse him
would be a disability to distinguish
right from wrong. 1t may be shown
at the trial that the Robinson boy is
not criminally responsible, but that
a defense that should not be con-
sidered by the grand jury. All that
must be brought out at the trial and
has absolutely nothing to do with the
duties of a grand juror.

WATERFRONT IS
AGAIN DAMAGED
BY HEAVY TIDE
Local Docks. 5oathouses and

Unusual Storm.

Newsrk's water front again SUI
fered today because of flood conui-
tions in the Passaic river ana New

Evening star yesterday, the pressure
from the northeast coast storm OF
the last few days caused the Pas
sale and Hsckensack to overflow
their banks in this city, as well as
on the meadows.
At midnight last night the water
was over the docks along both sides
OF the river in this city and Harri-
son. The water receded this Tore
noon, but early this afternoon u was
again covering the edges of the docks.
Soon afterWard the water began 70
fall. II was then noticeable the nigh
tide did not reach as far as II dld
last nieht. The lessening of the high
tide was attributed to the diminish
ing Of the gale. 1t is claimed that
Yesterdays high tide was the worst
hereabouts in twenty years or more.
Hundreds of boats were forced
from their moorings in both the Pas
sale and Hackensack. There also was
some damage to lighthouses.
one man was injured and others
thrown into the icy waters in an
effort to reclaim the things that the
swift tide was carrying away.
About six inches Of water covered
the site of the chemical plant OF the
Butterworth-Judso Company, near
the Central railroad bridge, In an
effort to recover the largae csrboys
and other articles men worked IN
the water for hours. Large RATS
were launched, and in this way valu-
able materiala was recovered.

Old watermen said last nights was
the highest tide in years. Some of
the Jersey City ferries suspended run

the inability of passengers to walk up
the steep inclines Of gangplanks.
The storm claimed one life in New
Jersey. Mrs. Ruth Mullica. who oc-
cupied a houseboat at Atlantic City,
was drowned while trying TO save the
boat.
Railroad trains We're. held up in
more ways than one. While wash
outs made traffic impossible along the
coast, broken telegraph wires and
poles so crippled the railroads in the
northern part of the State that loco

the neighborhood of 100000.
