TROUBLE FEARED
IN MEXICO CITY

Vera Cruz, Nov. 11.-Grave concern
is felt here regarding the situation In
Mexico City. Wild rumors persist that
conditions of open anarchy are inn
minent in the Mexican capital.
Political refugees arriving here re-
port that in some parts of the city
there have been open outbursts and
signs of violence by mobs. One OF
these reports, which, however, has not
been confirmed, says that the Ma
tional Bank of Mexico City has been
threatened.
Copies of Mexico City newspapers
received here show that Carranza still
controls the metropolitan press. In
these papers and on handbills distrib.
uted throughout the capital are violent
denunciations of the agitation of the
Aguas Calientes convention in de.
handing that Carranza step down in
favor of General Eulalio Gutierrez.
Gutierrez has carried out his pro.
gram and proclaimed himself provi
sional president of the republic. The
proclamation included the cabinet
which Gutierrez appointed shortly af.
ter the convention determined on him
to succeed to the chair of Diaz, Ma.
dero, Huerta and CaTranza.

THE CATTLE DISEASE
HUMANS MAY CONTRACT DIS
EASE THROUGH THE USE
OF MILK.

Sioux City, Nov. 1.-THE hoof and
mouth disease of cattle, which has
become an epidemic in several states,
is one that may be contracted easily
by human beings. 1t Is the most
easily spread of all diseases of the
lower animals and it's germ Is the
most easily eradicated, according to
DIR. George A. Johnson, who for ten
years was inspector In charge of the
Sioux City yards.
THE symptoms In human beings
are similar to those in cattle, hogs or
sheep" said DR.. Johnson. 1T shows
first in the form of slobber, which
soon becomes more evident. Then
follow loss or appetite, lameness and
blisters between the toes and fingers
and in the mouth. These blisters
rupture and leave a raw surface
which is very painful. In cattle il
affects the feet TO such an extent that
the hoofs often drop off. Emaciation
is rapid and at the end of a few days
1t Is necessary to kill the cattle.
Human beings are affected most
frequently through milk from diseas-
ed cows. There Is almost no posi-
bility of attack from meats hat have
been cooked. The germ can stand
but little heat and ordinary cooking
kills 1t. In persons the disease sell
dom is fatal and ordinary measures
effect q quick cure. IL brings with
IL a high fever and this must be kept
down. Also IL is necessary to treat
the ulcers and to give internal appli-
cations to sooth the mucous mem
I.a - t1nA ,nxr 10. nHnntaI tfrG
its course In a few days,
with cattle 1t Is different. The
shotgun seems to be the only relief
when once the disease gets started.
In Germany they have been trying for
100 years to bring out a cure, but
seem no farther ahead than they
were at the start. In both Europe
and Asia the disease Is in evidence
practically all the time, and all cases
we have had in this country are
traceable to cattle brought from n
OF those continents. The epidemic
six years ago came from Japan"
DR.. Johnson had a favorable OPP
p~ortunity for studying the disease
when ii last became prevalent in the
east. He was called upon by the fed
eral government to help in its eradi-
cation, and after the work was over
he was one of two men chosen to
conduct additional Investigations
looking toward a cure. 1t is his opin-
ion that the disease Is not perma-
nently located in this country, but al
ways comes from across the ocean.
Owing to the great movement of
stock east and west in America 1t is
rapidly carried about by mean OF
germs lodging in stock cars.
1T Is a disease that might have a
hold upon a large number Of cattle,
sheep or hogs in any yards" explain
ed Dr.. Johnson, and yet not be de-
tected by an inspector. The most
careful men in the business could
pass over a large number of cases in
a yard and eve see them. To be
absolutely certain ii would be prac-
tlcally necessary to examine every
head, which of course, is impossible.
For this reason it is necessary to have
a most rigid quarantine when a case
is discovered"

be used In cases of emergency, such
as a war, and will not be used to fill
up the gaps In the ranks of the enlist
ed men In peace time. The reserve IL
being organized on the theory that the
present ships of the navy are or will
be fully equipped with enlisted men.
In war time, however, many ships
are added to the navy for use as auxil-
larry cruisers, tenders, GOLFERS, ETC., and
1t Is for the purpose of having trained
crews at once to man these vessels
that the national naval reserve will be
organized.
While former enlisted men will form
a large part OF the national naval re
serve, its members, according to Mr..
Roosevelt's plans, will not be confined
to them alone. Amy civilian who is
familiar with the running of any or all
parts Of a ship will be eligible to be-
come a member of the reserve.
For instance, a man may be able to
run a motorboat engine ~sklllfully, on
sequently he would ft In nicely III
ming a ships launch In wartime. The
only difference between the former en-
listed man and the civilian will be In
becoming members of the reserve. The
qualifications of the man who has once
served IN the navy will of course be
known, and he will be admitted with
out an examination. The civilian, how
ever, will have to undergo a simple ex-
animation, In order to determine the
place for which he is best qualified.
Once completed, the national naval
reserve will consist Of seamen and non
commissioned officers capable Of per-
forming all manner of duties around a
ship, from cooking In the galley to
running a hydroaeroplane.
The total cost Of organizing and
maintaining the national naval reserve
will be so small that the assistant Sec
rotary Of the navy anticipates little OPP
position to his plan In congress. The
total cost, as he estimates 1t, will not
be more than $4,000 a year.
Each member Of the national naval
reserve will be on Uncle Sans payroll,
but for an amount that will be nom
inal. As now planned, the cvmpensa-
ton Of each member Of the reserve In
peace time will be 81 a year. In add
ton an insignia, In the shape Of some
kind Of emblem, will be established,
each member receiving II.

Assistant Secretary Roosevelt, Father

Washington.-The organization OF a
national Aaval reserve OF 10000 men,
TO be used by this country In case of
war or other emergency, will soon be
started by Franklin ID. Roosevelt, as
slstant secretary Of the navy.
The cost to the government will be
small, and when the organization of
the reserve Is completed Uncle Sam
Will be enabled In case of war quickly
to draw from the ranks Of civilians at
least 10000 men, each of whom will
have had sufficient training to fit him
at once to take the post assigned to
him on a ship.
