its case.
Messages poured into the white
house today commencing the Ameri.
can note.
Officials were interested In the re-
'ception the note received from British
|of1cialdom and the British press. The
was also interested In
the view Berlin takes Of the note.
Officials contend 1t clearly demon
strates the strict neutrality Of this
government and deals as vigorously
with England as with Germany on the
question of the freedom Of the seas.
Failure specifically to protest the
placing by England Of cotton on the
absolute contraband list and failure
to detail objections to cotton seiz-
|ures, was expected to draw criticism
from southern congressman and COT
ton interests. It has been officially an.
nounced, however, that a separate note
is being prepared on the contraband
question. Information to use In this
note is still being gathered. Express
sfons Of the German-Amer1can press,
commencing the notes vigorous tone
will be especially gratifying to some
administration officials. Compilation
OF press comments were laid before
President Wilson and Secretary Lans-
Ing.
The note was regarded as forecast
ing this governments immediate
action in the question of seizure OF
Chicago meat packers cargoes and
also Of the new Anglo-French policy OF
seizing vessels in which Germans are
alleged to own an interest Separate
representations are expected soon,
protesting against seizure OF the meat
cargoes on mere conjecture when
designed for entry into the general
stock" Of neutral country.
The note is also regarded as sus.

lex, ~, of American shippers. 1t Is
ib ed that Skinner has thus been
lcated and his actions approved.
That the note gives warning of i'm
) nense claims for damage at the close
of war, was the view Of some officials.
Certainly claims will be filed for
charges assessed against vessels un-
lawfully detained
In diplomatic circles the view was
expressed that England may adopt
new measures to extend her actual
blockade Of Germany to meet the OBJ
jections Of the United States that it
Is not an actual blockade.
Copies Of the note were delivered
today to the allies embassies here
and also to those OF the Scandinavian
countries. German Ambassador Bern
stroff will also probably be given a
copy.
Diplomatic Representatives of the
neutral nations today expressed salts
faction with the tener Of the note,
particularly the "championing" by the
United States Of neutral rights. 1t
was intimated that some of the Scan
dinavian countries may take the cue
and send separate notes Of protest to
England.
England Resentful.
LONDON, Nov. 8.-England Is very

sons note concerning the British
blockade of the German coast.
Comment by the man in the street.
today Is far more out-spoken to this
effect than were the newspapers. The
latter, while vigorously defending the
blockade and deploring what they
term the harsh wording OF the COM
munication, are careful to explain
that no serious. trouble is to be ex-
pected between the two countries and
seem hurt, rather than angry, at the
American chief executives attitude.
Individual utterances, however, are
very bitter.
The popular view, X 1t is correctly
reflected by what Is to be heard on
the street and in shops and offices, is

said: that he puts American profits
much higher than vital British neces-

struggle, by consideration for Amerl

Too Mild FOR Germany.

"Too mild and too late," was the gem

of the American note to England con-
corning British interference with
American trade at sea.

The Various Ways of
Contracting Typhoid Fever
CBy DIR. F. A. BRINK.>

Drinking water has long been held
entirely to blame for the spread of
typhoid fever. In many epidemics
both recent and remote, the water
has been the chief or only agent in
the transmission of the disease, but
modern sanitary science has brought
about a change, drinking water is not
now so frequently contaminated with
typhoid gers, and when so con-
taninated, the fact is soon discov-
cred and corrected, so that at the
present time it is doubtful whether
this is the chief source of the infec-
ton and the house fly is known to be
in the front ranks as carrier of
| typhoid bacteria. So well is its func-
ton established in this regard that
it has often been spoken of, not as
the house fly, but as the typhoid fly.
Its filthy habits of breeding and feed
ing upon the excreta of animals and
man fit it most eminently to carry
whatever germs are there and de-
post them upon your food when he
visits your dining room or kitchen.
Germs are so small, and the fly's foot
so large, relatively, that he can track
disease germs onto your food for you
to eat, as well as the ice man can
track sand into your kitchen.
| Fruits that are eaten without peel
ing or cooking, and other foods that
are eaten raw, can transmit the germs
of typhoid fever from a person con-
valescent from the disease or from a
carrier to well person, and this is
an occurrence that sometimes does
take place.
Finally and of least Importance is
the transmission of the disease from
person to person by direct contact
. This is a very uncommon occurrence
when any ordinary precautions in the
way of cleanliness are taken, as evi.
denced by the frequency with which
single cases appear in family anc
the infrequency of the disease among
those who care for the sick.
In Pensacola, the water supply il

VOX POPULI
FORCIBLY IMPRESSES THE
NEED OF A NATATORIUM
> = go - = &c = ~~AN

Editor Pensacola Journal:
The recent action of the commit
tee having charge of Bayview Park
in closing up that popular resort
should forcibly impress the public
with the value of nacatorium which
would be open all the year round and
furnish an opportunity to those who
find enjoyment and exercise in the
art of swimming.
The writer is sure that those who
have not given the matter thought
would be surprised to find how popu-
lar these institutions become in the
course of a few years. The last five
years has witnessed a marvellous
growth in the increase of public and
private swimming pools which are
open all the year.
The water in these places is main
tanned at an even temperature by the
use of heating apparatus and the cold
shower after bathing eliminates the
tendency to take cold upon going out
into the air in the winter time. A
pool with some special feature, such
as large size or beauty of architec-
ture, is an excellent advertisement
of any city and such already exist in
many places, such as the Phipps Nat
atatorium in Pittsburg and the Hy-
geia Baths in Atlantic City.
Such an institution is not char
liable one by any means, for they pay
for themselves handsomely, if the
charges are made for admission and
lessons in swimming are given.
A cement pool may be constructed
for small cost in comparison with
the benefits derived. and the error of
making it too small should be avoid
ed; one hundred by forty feet making
a good size.
It could be cleaned out by drain
ing out the water and scrubbing,
which should be done frequently. It
viii only be question of time when
such place will be built and the
sooner it is seriously considered, just
so early will the people of Pensacola
be enabled to share the opportunities
already presented by other Florida
cities.
