BRYAN'S LETTER
PLEASES ENGLISHMEN
Secretary Of War Replied TO Those
Who Say America 10 Favor
Ing the Allies.

UNITED Press Leased Wire Service ]
LONDON, Jan. 26.-The Evening
Stars comment upon Secretary Bry-
ans letter to Senator Stone. answer
ing charges that the United States
has favored the allies, is typical OF
the opinion expressed by London's
papers today. Bryan's answer, says
the Star, has additional force because
OF the fact that Mr.. Bryan has never
been either the friend or the enemy
of England. He has been So deeply
concerned in domestic politics In the
United States that he has not had
time to acquire a bias.
"The letter is all the more csnsh.
ing" continues the Star, because It
contains categorical denial OF the
charges. The American secretary Of
state has abandoned the glowing gem
eralities which marked the young ora
tor OF the free silver regime and has
answered the charges in detail.
Mr.. Bryah's letter makes it clear
that Germany cannot hide her fleet
in the Kfel canal and then equalize
the situation by wire pulling agitation
in the United States"

that fair care with sensible means
Will insure scalp health and hair

not advisable to use makeshift, but
always use q preparation made for
shampooing only. You can enjoy the
best that is known for about TIRES
cents a shampoo by getting a PACK
age of calthrox from your druggist;
dissolve teaspoonful in cup OF hot
water and your shampoo is ready.
After it's use the hair dries rapidly

fy that 1t will look much heavier than
it is. Its lustre and softness will al

UNITED Press Leased Wire Servicel
CHICAGO, Jan. 26-Discoyery OF
foot and mouth Infection among car
load of live stock sent from here to
Philadelphia, caused hurriedly call
ed conference of federal and state Of
fcials and stock yards officials to dis
cuss the advisability Of establishing
a quarantine on all shipments of live

the local federal Inspector today wired
Washington authorities for instruc-
tons. That the situation has assumed
some serious aspects, was admitted
by live stock men here.
A. C. Leonard, PRESIDENT OF the

pany, today explained the situation.
"A day or so ago. said Leonard,
five carloads of live stock were ship
ped from here east. Four carloads
went to New York. One went to
Philadelphia, via Pittsburgh. The lat
ter shipment was found to be con-
taminated upon its arrival in Phila-
delphia- 1t Is not known yet wheth.
er the disease was present when the
live stock left here. The investigation
now going ON will attempt to decide
this important point. If the disease
was present when the stock left here
it might mean that the stock yards
would have to be closed until the
yards are thoroughly fumigated."
Officials at the federal inspectors Of
ice explained that such a quarantine
would not necessarily shut off receipts.
No live stock would be permitted to
be shipped from here. but local pack
ers could kill here and snip the meat.
At the stock yards, it was pointed out
that the quarantine might apply only
to the division" from which the ship
ment In question was sent and not to
