SPECIFIC FOR MENINGITIS.
Australia Physician Says Oil from
Eucalyptus Leaves Kills Germ.

The discovery Of a specific for eere.
bro-spina1 meningitis has been an.
nounced by DR.. Richard Bull, a direc-
tor of the meteorological laboratory
of the University of Melbourne, Aus
tralia. DR.. Bull stated that eucalyp-
tus would destroy the germ.
The treatment of cerebro-spinal
meningitis has long presented a seri-
Gus problem. Up to comparatively
short time ago it may be said there
was no effective treatment for this
disease, known popularity as spotted
fever, or ssthe black death" The in
PRODUCTION Of serum therapy, how
ever, offered hope of combating the
disease successfully. In the epidemic
in New York in 1905 the serum of
Flexner and Jobling was used with
striking success among young pa
TENTS The death rate where serum
was employed fell to 46.3 per cent,
compared with so per cent without it's
use. In the nineteenth century there
were serious epidemics over Europe
and IN the eastern United States.
The medicinal properties of the oil
from leaves Of the eucalyptus tree
have long been recognized It has
been used in treatment Of diseases of
the lungs and bronchi and employed
as an antiseptic.

 INVESTIGATING CRAFT
Dominion Government Believed to Have Been Robbed in Pur-

SEATTLE, Sept. 29,-Canadian commissioners are now enroute to British Columbia to investigate charges of irregularities against off icals in connection with the purchase of munitions of war, principally in the cities of Puget Sound.

The contract price for the construction of these submarines was five hundred thousand dollars each but it has been found that Canada paid over a million each for them. Graft is also suspect ed in the purchase of horses and vari- Ous sorts of munitions and a big scandal is expected to be brought to public view.

J. E.. Ballaine Has
 Half Million Suit
MAKES CANADIAN BOND HOLD FRS AND SWANITZ THE
 DEFENDANTS.

SEATTLE, Sept. 29.-John E. Bal laine has brought suit for five hun dred thousand dollars damages again, st w. J. Roland, F. G. Emmett and w.. E. Stavert, of Toronto, and separate suit against Colonel A. w. Swanitz of Alameda. The first three are the committee of the Canadian bondhold- CTS of the Alaska Northern railroad. The suit of MT. Ballaine grows out of the suit filed some time ago against him and his brother, Frank L. Bal laine of Seward.
 (Note) Mir. Frank Ballaine has heard nothing of the suit except what is contained in the above message to the Gateway and he declined to make any statement regarding it. The people here know that the defendants in the present suit brought by Mir. John Ballaine represent the interests that brought suit against the Bal laine brothers some months ago. It is supposed that Colonel Swanitz has been made a defendant in the suit brought by Mir. Ballaine because it has been alleged that the colonel was the instigator in the filing of the suit against the Ballaines.
