EXPLOITATION OF GEARS RETREAT
 WON BUL GARIANS


 Paris. Oct. 15.-That the Russian re- treat, skillfully exploited by German agents was the immediate cause of turning against the allies the sentf- ment of the Bulgarian people, who are intensely practical, was the assertion made by A. De Panafieu, French min ister at Sofia, to the correspondent Of the Journal, atAPiraeus-
 The event coincided,'' ,'' he said, with the visit of the Duke of Meekleburg who found a ready tool in King Fer dinand, 8 blind believer in Gernany's victory. The Champagne success came too late to restore the balance. The Bulgarian people understand nothing of diplomatic calculations.
 Russia, the great motherland, will henceforth be far away to the Bulga- rian people. It would be premature to express an opinion about the possi- bility of a revolution for at least a month. The Bulgarian people are em- barking upon a% risky adventure with out joy but it is beyond question that if they find out they have been de- ceived they will seek out and punish the guilty.
 s'The ruptre of diplomatic relations stupefied the Bulgarians. Even when we went to get our passports no 6ne in Sofia believed we were going. We were treated with the greatest cor diality and our journey to Dedagche wa& without incident .''

Parrott, who was president of the first Republican club ever organized in this city, and John w. Moore of 1,O24 Noble avenue. Attorney Pullman and MT. Moore finally voted to make unanimous the lmotionf to name the Independent ticket, but Mr. Parrott denurred to the last, declaring that such a ticket could not win.
 It was voted that the ticket should not be used club to scoerce the other parties into putting commission but that the candidates should stand and work until election night. In his speech of acceptance of the Nomination for mayor, MT. Lee rec commended that committees be ap- pointed in each district to make a house to house canvas. He declared the Republicans have a strong or ganization cemented together by city money while the commission govern ment league has little or no organi- fzation.

ANTHRAX PATIENT
 AFTER RALLY. DIES OF HEART DISEASE
Poison From Malady Proves Fatal to Man Treated
 With New Serum.

New York, Oct 15.--George F. Stack pole, the lawyer of Riverhead, l.. T., who was stricken with anthrax several days ago, died in Bellevue hospital early today of heart failure resulting from the poison of the disease.
 MT. stackpole's death came after rally which caused the physicians to believe that the, most serious phase or the disease had been passed, and that he would recover. MT. Stackpole, 5Who was II years old, was conscious untl1 within five minutes before he died ana told his wife he realized that death
 The unusual nature of the disease from which MT. Stackpo1e suffered which is common in cattle but >tnfre- quent in human beings, attracted pub lie attention throughout the country. Physicians watched the case closely to observe the effect of the antf-toxtn which was sent here from the bureau of animal industry at Washington to combat the anthrax germ. This case was the first one in which the newly discovered serum had been sued in the treatment of a human being but 1t had proved successful in the treatment of animals.
 Tn all 15O cubic centimetres were in- 1ected in three or more periods. Fol- lowing the third injection the swelling of the neck which had increased alarm ingly was checked and the patients temperature declined and decided inn prov enent was shown. Although the physicians were greatly encouraged they warned MT. Stackpole's relatives that there was danger that his heart would yield to the poisonous infection of the malady.
 7 It is believed that MT. stackpole caught the disease by his custom of leaning against a hitching post while converstng- with friends at Riverhead.

Mrs. Elizabeth G. Reisinger, wife of Mr..
Henry Reisinger, died last Tuesday at her
home here, aged forty-six years. Although
she had been i'll several months of COM
plication of diseases, her death was sudden
and was due to heart disease. She is sur
vived by her husband, two sons and two
daughters. The funeral took place Thursday
afternoon from the Presbyterian Church.
Mrs. Reisinger was before her MARRIAGE

the last twenty years had lived in Rock

A fall into well of 80 feet deep and
containing eight feet of water resulted no
more seriously to Mrs. Andrew jackson

slight bruises. Mrs. Mobley, accompanied
by her little son, went out into the yard
adjoining her home last Saturday after
noon to draw a bucket of water, and while
lowering the bucket the platform gave way
and she disappeared into the well. The

could be seen of Mrs. Mobley, but finally
her head was seen above the water. Mrs.
Mobley was told to catch hold of the chain,

chain and held her above the water until
a rope could be obtained and lowered.
The rope was fastened about Mrs Mobley's

Mr.. M. d. Knight, Road Engineer, Rock
vile, Md.
Dear Sir Referring to your published
letter to Mr.. B. X. Codwise. in reference TO
the road meeting at Laytonsville. you say
statements were made that were unwar-
ranted and incorrect. yet you do not mention
what statements these were. and as we
were mentioned in this letter we feel il our
duty to answer the same.
You speak of Senator Lees efforts in
behalf of this road. We have had in the
past few years over $4,000 worth Of
numerous efforts on the part Of State and
county road officials and others in behalf
of these four miles. Of which little more
than mile is good today. So, naturally.
we object to the spending Of $4,000 in
more efforts unless we are assured Of last
ing results.
In regard to the recommendation we
made to spend the $1,000 available two
years ago. after consulting Mr.. Mace. who
at the time was building tar-concrete
road in Virginia. we recommended, on his
estimate Of about $4,000 per mile after
he had inspected this road the spending
Of not over $4,000 in a section, length not
mentioned. OF tar concrete to test II, and
the other $4,000 be used to put the bal
ance of the four miles In as good condition
as possible for the money. no method men
toned. This plan you assured us, in the
County Commissioners office, in Rockville,
was perfectly feasible and Mr.. Shirley
State Road Engineer. would approve II on
your recommendation. Who was respon-
sible for the change in this plan and the
spending of practically the whole amount
on less than one mile Of tar concrete, leav-
ing the balance Of the road to 90 to pieces
You state that an additional amount
was paid Mr.. Williams for damages caused
by hauling outside stone on his farm. We
have in our possession your letter to Mr.
Williams. Of August Il, 1913, in which
you agree to pay him the same royalty on
outside stone as on his own and contains
no mention Of damage by hauling or other
wise. Was this not due to the fact that
Mr.. Williams contract was so worded that
he tied you up3 Furthermore. the crushing
plant, Notwithstanding the excessive cost
you speak Of. had to be afterward moved
to Mr.. Gray's farm.
Ia your letter to Mr.. Williams you admit
the boring and other tests were not made
until after the work was long under way
Was IL not your place as road engineer to
ascertain where you could procure the
proper amount and quality Of stone and

The tar concrete has proven satisfactory
except for the original cost and lack of any
attention for the two years since construc-
ton.
In another section you state the tar
concrete would cost $l.40 per yard, and at
Rockville when the bond issue was under
discussion you said your belief was that
nothing but brick or tar concrete road
would stand our traffic, yet in your recon-
mendation for the proposed bond issue you
make your estimate on a macadam road
with tar surface to cost as much as tar
concrete. besides an upkeep cost. estimated
by you, at least of $500 per mile annually.
The last work on this road. done last
year at a cost of $4,000 per mile, you
estimate the annual cost Of upkeep at
$373.50 per mile. Why this difference in
upkeepH

vile meeting to imply any misappropria-
eAoh Va iuhuS' ohiy hiiodppICdtiUH'
The question, as we see it, is that if
these bonds were issued and the road built,
how, under your present methods of road
construction and repairs. are we expected
to be able to keep up this road at your
estimate of $500 per mile per year when
Mr.. Berry Clark stated at Laytonsville that
the total amount available was about $500
per mile per year, We know of no mis-
statement nor incorrect ones made at Lay
louisville, and think, by all means. every
man in our district should have the privi-
lege of voting on this issue, and we can
assure you their votes will prove beyond
doubt that they are tired of having large
sums of money spent in roads which do not
stand and for which no provision has ever
been made for upkeep except by additional
bond issues.
