CHIEF QUARANTINE
OFFICER DOES NOT J..
WORRY OVER TYPHUS

eff there is any outbreak of typhus
fever in Australia, the bill of health
on the next ship from there will show
it," said Dr.. F. E Trotter, chief fed
eral quarantine officer at this port,
today, when shown an Associated
Press despatch stating that the dis
ease has broken out in the state of
Victoria.

ed epidemic" aid the physician, "and
l doubt if it amounts to anything.
There will be the same methods as
usual followed in inspecting the next
boats from Australia. No one having
the disease or likely to have it would
be allowed to leave an Australian port
anyway"
DR.. Trotter said that If there were
any cases in Australia they could not
have been brought In by Australian
troops, as they have been serving
only in the Dardanelles and not in
Serbia, where typhus has been raging.
He said the disease might possibly
have been communicated to Australian
troops by wounded sent to the Eng
lish base hospital in Alexandria from
Serbia, but that this was unlikely.
The doctor said he had received no
information from federal health au-
thorities concerning any such out;

QUICKSILVER JUMPS
FROM $40 TO $50 A FLASK
Abnormal War Demand Boosts Price.
Domestic Consumption,
1,575,OOO Pounds.

The quicksilver industry has been ac-
tive during the first six months of 1915,
according to report issued by the
United States geological survey today.
Up to the beginning of the European
war. the report says, the price per
flask of seventy-f1ve pounds in San
Francisco had not reached a monthly
average of $40 since January. but in
August embargoes closed the important
foreign sources of supply. except the
Italian. and the average was quoted as
$50, and much higher prices were quot
ed for individual sales.
In September the price dr$onnpee d
slightly. and in. the last quarter ship
ments came in from italy to take a3f-
vantage of the domestic market, and
the prices ranged from $50 to SIS. De
mand increased and supplies were not
Immediately available, so that in Feb
ruary the monthly average price reach
in April. and SIS in May. Italian sup
plies could no longer compete when
that country entered the war, and in
June the prices rose from $50 to $40.
Some quicksilver may still be ex-
pected from small surplus supplies in
Mexico, or other neutral countries, per-
haps> but otherwise the domestic
mines are without serious competition
and are In position to profit while
the war lasts. The normal annual do
nestle consumption has been around.
$1,000 TASKS, and the domestic output
has been below this the past two
years.
Demand is now abnormal, for the
manufacture of explosives principally,
and high prices will likely rule as sur
plus stocks are absorbed, and the few
important producers in California Ne
vada and Texas will find some difficulty
in meeting the demand
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1915-07-01

war would have to be fought with in
ferior explosives instead Of with the
new high grade explosives which mill
tary men are demanding.
Ever since the pacifist prophets be-
gan to formulate the impossibility of
war for economic reasons the unregen-
crate have been waiting about to see
how they took the practical disproof Of
their theories. The hint that there is
an end to the supplies Of glycerin may
imply that the pacihst prophets are
right. provided only that they are given
sufficient time for their predictions to
work out.
But We have a cold fear that instead
of resting content with inferior explo-
sives the European fighters will simply
make the poisonous gas machines more
effective or go on to the use of straight
sulphuric acid in projectiIe form. De-
prived of ammunition, they may even
poison wells or start bacterial plaques.
This end of 1t has been neglected in
war prophecies. paciflst or militarist.
