Tokio, Sept. 17 Special advices from Petrograd give importance to the announcement that the Russian Trade and Navigation Company of Odessa has decided to give Japanese sh:pbui1ding yards it's first big or der for the construction of several large passenger steamers. The Rus sian ministry of trade and industry thoroughly approves the decision of thee ornpany as the .begfnnfng of an the company Gs the beginning of an Russia and Japan which promises to have a. great future. At the outset there will be ordered eight first class ships for the Crimeaz Caucasus 1ine,s after which the com pany has in view an order for a sec ond group of steamers for it's foreign service on lines which before the war were in the hands of the Germans. Heretofore there have been no steam CTS of Japanese construction among the vessels of the Russian merchant marine.

GERMAN EDITORS PLEASED AT NEW VIEWS ON ARABIC

Berlin, Sept. t7-Reports received here. that President Wilson will make no formal reply to the German gov ernment,s communication concerning the sinking of the steamship Arabic, but will confer conf1dential1y with Ambassador Won Bernstorm, are ac- claiming Germania as "a new indi- cation of the good will of the Ameri- Jean people and it's intent to come to an understanding with. us.''
 Previous diplomatic interchanges,. says Germania, have been made under disadvantageous circumstances, be- cause protests to Berlin have been reported in advance in British des- patches.
 teWe believe friendly mouth-to mouth talks will serve the. purpose desired by both sides far better than the earlier interchanges,'' this news paper adds.
 Commenting on the conflicting re- ports from Washington 3concerning the Arabic case and its reference to The Hague the National zfetung says itu nderstood negotiations are in pro gress in Washington looking to a, re novel of naisund erstandings- These negotiations are confidential for the present, it says. but there is definite reason for the hope that they will lead ltoiaa, favorable result.

I "a disease carrier, prbvocatfve of ma lariaL, tubereular. and other troubles. Yet because the letting off of this water would have caused some slight Iinconvehience to an industry e1a ploy-
 ing a very few men. it was never pos sible to drain these swarl1ps and nea-
 dows. A board of health is not, likely to amount to- much unless one or more competent physicians are in ciuded on if. Doctors are busy men,
 but have as much public spirit as any
 one. They should not be asked to
 perform this service for love only.
 It is an effort that should enlist the energies of the best citizen of the
 place. If leading men would all take turn for short term, the service
 would not be onerous on any one, and
 a .knowledge Of health problems
 would sbecene much more widely diff fused.
