TUBERCULOSIS COWS A MENACE.
Thirty Per Cent of Tuberculosis IL
Children Traceable to Them.

The suggestion has been given that
in addition to swatting and trapping
flies, swatting their breeding places
in refuse and manure, attention
should be directed to swatting the
tubereuious cow, and the conditions
which inhibit the highest efficiency in
the testing and subsequent proper dis
.posal of all infected dairy animals in
this country.
The one great source of infantile
tuberculosis has been determined to
be cows milk which is regarded as
causing 80 per cent Of the tuberculo-

be cffectually overcome by education,
cooperative legislation, and the eff

partment and statements of the secre-
tarY of state concerning conditions
in Mexico were accepted in many quar-
ters last night as foreshadowing more
drastic steps in the event that the
Mexicans should attempt any organized
act Of hostility.
For days the state department has
been receiving more and more alarming
reports concerning the spread of anti
American agitation throughout Mexico.
Heretofore, however, efforts have been
made to minimize the gravity of the
situation. Consequently considerable
surprise was expressed at Secretary
Lansing's frank statement that the
situation was growing worse.
Although he stated that occasionally
the CaTanza officials made efforts to
suppress the hostile demonstrations. for
the most part they showed either a
total inability to cope with the situa-
ton or manifested Indifference.
While the secretary would not go so
far as to admit that change of policy
was under consideration it is no secret
that a majority of the state depart
ment officials in touch with the Mexi-
can situation are confident that armed
intervention in Mexico is now only
a question of time.
The troops ordered to the border yes
terday afternoon comprise Il companies
of coast artillery, totalling about 1000
men, and about 500 men of the First
Battalion of Engineers, which has been
garris0ned at the barracks in this city.
The coast artillery will be taken from
the following stations: Two companies
from Portland, Me, two from Boston,
two from Narragansett Bay. two from
Long Island, one from East New York,
ono from South Brooklyn and one from
Sandy Hook.
