curzon and Churchill to Make Great Ef.
fort at Cabinet Meeting.

London, Oct. l5.-The parliamentary
correspondent of the Daily News, as
serts that the conscriptionist members
OF the cabinet, headed by Winston Spen-
Ger Churchill and Earl Curzon. win make
a renewed attempt az the cabinet meet
ing 10 force the issue and obtain def
mite ruling for or against conseription.
The conscriptionist members believe,
the Daily News continues, that Earl
Kitchener is more inclined 10 their view
than he was month ago, and they also
believe that If the British government
should announce adoption Of conscription
at the present juncture, when a new
war is beginning in the Balkans, il would
have a striking effect ON the military
situation.
Several Liberal members Of Parliament
are urging the government 70 appoint
a committee 20 investigate the circum-
stances under which the Dardanelles ex.
petition WAS begun and the manner in
which IL has bccn conducted. II Is con.
sidered doubtful that the government
will consent

land, secretary; G. " Dalton of Burling-
ton, treasurer. The full program was
carried out.
A feature of the convention was an
address last night by DIR. William q.
Gorgas, surgeon general of the United
States army, on Sanitation of the Ca
nal Zone and Construction of the Pana-
ma Canal"
General Gorgas told Of the days when
Havana, Cuba, was an endemic focus be-
cause of the yellow fever which had ex-
isted there for hundreds of years and
had infected the United States for over
a century and half. The death rate
of Havana from yellow fever when Gen
eral Gorgas began his work there in Feb
ruary of 1901 was from 1000 to 5000
deaths yearly. By November of 1901,
there was not single case of yellow
fever in the city and it has been free
from it ever since. General Gorgas went
from Havana to Panama in May, 1904,
and the last case of yellow fever oc-
CURED in November of 1905 and the
whole republic of Panama has been prac-
tically free from this dread disease since
that date.
Referring to the cost OF the sanitation
work which was carried out in Havana
and Panama, General Gorgas said that
the cost in Havana was about four
tenths of a cent per day per capita, while
in Panama, due to administration rea-
sons, it was about one cent per day per
capita General Gorgas explained at
some length the many things not relat-
ing strictly to the work of the santa
tion department at Panama, which |
were under their control and paid for
from their appropriation, so that the
,ost of the sanitation department during |
the ten years of building the canal
amounted to 20 millions OF dollars, al |
,hough only three and one half millions
we're spent for the real work of sani-
alton, the prevention of disease.

RUSSIANS AGAIN
FORCED BACKWARD
Have Been Compelled to Relinquish Their
Position on the West Bank of the
Stripa River.

London, Oct. l5.--The actual military
operations in the Balkans show but lit
tie change since the capture of Belgrade,
except for brief forways by the Serbians
and Bulgarians. The Serbians are cling
ing desperately to the heights above Bel
grade, awaiting assistance from their al
lies, which is expected soon.
On the western front the British have
gained considerable ground, some of
which subsequently was lost under Ger
man shell fire.
Although admitting that the forces of
General Ivanoff again have been hurled
back across the Stripa river in eastern
Petrograd asserts the advantage
still rests with the Russians, who hold
eight miles of the east bank of the river,
after the action which virtually separat-
ed the Austro-German armies. Violent
actions continue on the Dvinsk front
with little relative change in the posi-
tions of the contending armies.
