TWENTY PER CENT
 FATAL IS EPIDEMIC
Number of Deaths and New Cases in New York Reach High Mark
 Since Start

New York, August 3-New forces were added today to the campaign against the epidemic of infantile paralysis here when two committees composed of prominent pathologists and bacteriologists from all over the country were selected today to study the disease. The naming of the committees followed a conference of the experts at the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Columbia university.
 The number of deaths and new cases reached a new high mark with the 24 hours ending at 10 o'clock today. New cases totaled 217 and the number of deaths 43. Health Commissioner Emerson announced tonight that the death rate in the present epidemic was 20 per cent of the cases reported, while In 1907 it was only per cent.
 Of the committees named at the confer ence of experts, the first is to make up a laboratory investigation of the nature and virulence of the dis ease. Dr. J. w. Jobling of Vanderbilt university, Nashville, is a member.
 The second committee is to devise prac- tical methods for the prevention of dis ease and it's spread. Dr. Charles C. Bass of Tulane university, New Orleans, is a member.

ALABAMA CITIES WILL CONFER ON
 FARM LOAN BANK Montgomery and Mobile Delegations Accept Invita- ton to Come to
 Birmingham

Representatives of the Mobile and Montgomery Chamber of Commerce will meet with the farm loan bank commit tee of the local Chamber of Commerce at a luncheon at the Tutwler tomorrow aft ernoon at 1 o'clock for the purpose or dls- cussing the relative merits Of the three cities as a site for one of the government land banks, with a view to deciding which of the cities of the state Is most entitled to it. The object of the confer ence will be for one of the three cities bank and for the other two to indorse it. and drop actively out of the fight for one of the banks.
 The delegation from Montgomery Will be headed by Michael Cody and other members of the party will be Clayton Tullis, president of the Montgomery Chamber of Commerce; A. c. Davis, A. M. Baldwin, J. c. Haas and Bruce Kennedy. George Fearn will head the Mobile delegation and several members of the Chamber of Commerce of that city will accompany him.
 Chairman Oscar Wells of the local com- mittee conducting Birminghams s fight for one of the government land banks, IS confident that the conference will result in great good. He believes that Birming- ham can show the representatives of the other two Alabama cities that she has the best claim for the bank, and that there will be no trouble about securing the indorsement of the Mobile and Mont gomery Chamber of Commerce.
 It has been pointed out that if all three cities make fight for one of the banks it might result in Alabama losing out entirely, as only 12 are to be placed throughout the entire country. The rep resentatives of the various cities fighting for the bank, believing the matter to be of immense importance to Alabama, seek to arrive at an understanding which will soidify the state on one city. It is hoped that, out of the meeting to- morrow afternoon will come an indorse- ment of Birmingham for the bank.

Herman M. Beck. past grand chancellor of the grand lodge of Knights of Pythias of Alabama, was elected yesterday as su- preme master at arms of the supreme lodge, Knights of Pythias of the World, which is now in session at Portland, Ore. Owing to a recent bereavement in his family, MT. Beck was not in attendance at the session of the supreme lodge. This fact makes his selection more sig nal honor.
 In addition to having filed in a most acceptable manner, the highest office in the gift of his Alabama brethren, MT Beck filled the important post ot chairman of the supreme committee or Pythian education for three years and il was in recognition of his splendid and ef- ficient work in this capacity that he was elected as one of the supreme officers.
 There is not more popular member of the order in the state than Herman Beck, nor one more loyal to it's tenets or more devoted to it's principles. He has given freely of his time and means to further the cause of Pythianism, not only throughout the state but throughout the country at large and his many friends rejoice in his well deserved promotion.

PROGRESS MADE IN SURVEYING ROUTE
 TO WARRIOR RIVER
Engineers Have Been Delayed for Several Weeks by Heavy Rains
 and Are Given More Time

Survey of the roads to the Warrior river is progressing rapidly now, accord- ing to George H. Clark, county engineer, who has a force of men working on the Nichols fish trap route to the War rior. The work was hampered for sew eral weeks on account of the heavy rains which made surveying almost impossible, but since the weather conditions have changed lost time is being made up.
 The time for the meeting of the con tracts in July was passed over until Sep- temb CT by the board of revenue in order to give the engineers more time to com plete their survey and compile the data needed by the board.
