vices have almost been completed.
 No notification has been received here of the reported conference to be held in Hartford for the purpose of making local quarantines more -uni- form throughout tho state, pr. Sophi- an said If such conference were held he would undoubtedly attend.
 s$uch plan would be desirable, g he said, "but absolutely uniform reg ulations couldn't be enforced. It would be we'll if they could be made as nearly uniform as possible.
 Negotiations depend much on local conditions Some cities receive a large York, while others arc unafected by these germ-carrying vehicles"
 Dr. sSophian said he didn't see the necessity of the quarantine against Bridgeport, announced by Reading to- day and Danbury several days ago. z Actually" he said, Bridgeport hasn't an epidemic. 50 there Is no req son for such an action Per capita, Bridgeport is as free from infantile paralysis as any city in the United States Considering the conditions here, 1t Is exceptionally free. The fact that we are taking great preven- tative measures doesn't indicate that Bridgeport is suffering scourge." The first report on trolley car con ditions was made this morning by the health department to the Connecti- cut Co. Dr. Sophian said this morn- ing that a daily report will be turns6 over to the company by the inspec- tors in the belief that if the company knows of conditions. it will take acc ton to remedy the evils.
 Dr. Sophian and Chief Inspector Dunbar visited cesspools yesterday. Arrangements were made so that sew eral will be cleaned. Plans are be- ing made for the abolition of all the cesspoo1s.
 The nurse engaged in examination work at Ash Creek was drenched yes terday. following several days in which she was scorched by the sun. Efforts are being made to have pro- lection of some sort against the weath CT established there. <
 Few children have been entering the city by train during the last few days, 1t was reported at the railroad station. This falling off in numbers is attributed to the espionage that is maintained in New York, at the sta tions, and the general Knowledge that quarantine exist against the New children.
 A child who arrived here by boat yesterday from New York was not allowed to leave the steamer, and had to return to New York.

STUDENT MILITIA
 TO LEAVE BORDER
 DUTY BY SEPT. 1

Washington. July 26.-Corlege men and organizations composed of college or school students are to be the first units of the militia to be withdrawn from the border servtceg 1t was an- nounced at the War Department yes- terday.
 Unless the retention of the whole Guard is made necessary by condi- tions at the time, these organizations will be recalled Sept. 1 and mustered out of the United States service.
 This announcement does not pre- clude the possibility of the entire Guard being entrained for home be- fore that date. but under the present outlook it is believed improbable that any of the militia will be withdrawn from the border until the fall terms of schools and colleges commence.
 Officials of the War Department were told today that this distinction of students would raise the cry of preference and that workingmen would claim that the students were the beneficiar1es of discrimination.
 Reasons for Withdrawal
 These young men," said the off, cial, "are in the formative period of their lives. Any interference with their studies will warp their whole careers The border service is mere ly a temporary loss to other members of the Guard
 Provision is made in the depart ment's plan for the students enroll- ment as members of the Officers Re- serve Corps. All guardsmen who can show a bona fide intention of en- rolling in some institution of learn ing, or returning to their studies. will be mustered out according to this regulation, and a special effort will be made to have them enlist as members of the officers corps.
 ..In this way" the announcement reads, advantage will be taken of the fine material which the college students offer; they will be reserved for great emergencies without inter- ference with their educational devel- opment, and the National Guard will be relieved of the embarrassment of containing units, all of which are not to close their class rooms.
 .'At present there are a great many students in the militia. Several or ganizations are distinctly student or ganizations, representing some school or college. Hardly a large university in America is not represented by at least a company. Unless these men are released in time to resume their fall studies many professors will have to close their class rooms.
 An explanation of the rioting by colored troops of the Eighth Illinois National Guard, in a saloon at San Antonio on Monday night, was con- veyed to the War Department today in a telegram from Gen. Funston. Ac- cording to the telegram. the men had just been paid. and the trouble arose through threats to throw the white soldiers out. No mention is made of an attack on a man nabed Henns, to which border dispatches lay the cause of the trouble. Funston's de- spatch follows:
 About 5:30 p. m. today (July 24), after having been paid, about forty men of the Eighth Illinois (colored), were assembled in a saloon near the reservation.
 Threats were made to throw out the white soldiers. and it is believed that some disturbancss occurred. Re-

carranza Will Wait, HoWever,
Until Country Is More Firm
Iy De-
lays Election.

Mexico City, july 17.-General Car
ANA in an interview today said that
the status of negotiations with Wash
Sngton were very satisfactory as a re-
suit of the good will shown to each
other by Mexico and the United States.
Within a short time, the first chief
said, there would be Incorporated in the
constitution of Mexico all the reforms
which now find a place in the program
of the constitutionalists. In a large
measure, he reclared, some of these re-
forms already are in operation and
there remains only their incorporation
into the fundamental laws Of the
try.
AS to the holding of a presidential
election, General Carranza SAT- it
would take place as soon as the work
of reconstructing the constitution had
been completed and when the country
was completely at peace.
The defacto government. the first
chief asserted, will pass a law of am
nesty, so that all MeXicanS who have
left the country for one eason or an
other can return if they desire.
Such a law, however, he said, would
not be promulgated as long as the gov
eminent was not on q firm basis, be-
cause among some Of the Mexicans nov
living abroad there are those who would
return to Mexico to conduct agitations
n disturb labor conditions.
las for myself personally, | do not
care" General Carranza declared, but
I do care, of course, for the government
and HI country. The work Of bringing
about the political reconstruction OF
Mexico is most difficult n must be
carried forward under peaceful condi-
tons. Let these Mexicans who are dis
turbers stay where they are until such
time as the country has a constitution
and government. Then they can return
and work.

citizens of each country within the
others domain We're to be respected.
violation of the agreement by Germany
being alleged. The situation is such
that the relations of Italy and Ger
many seem to have reached a greater
began.
Before leaving Rome in the spring
OF 1915, Prince Won Buelow, hen Ger
man ambassador to Italy, concluded
an agreement with the Italian govern
ment nde which, in case of war be-
tween Austria and Italy. Germany and
Italy pledged themselves to respect the
properties and lives of their respective
subjects. This meant for Germany a
guarantee Of several million dollars
worth of properties in Italy held by
her subjects and for Italy the safety
of $1,000 of her citizens still living
in Germany.
No state of war exists between Ger
many and Italy and the agreement ne
gotiated by Prince Won Buelow is still
in force. Italy, according to official
opinion here has faithfully observed
the agreement, re%fraining from touch
ing German property and freely allow
ing subjects of the German empire to
reside here. On the other hand Ger
many is unofficially accused of violat-
ing the agreement in depriving Italians
in Germany OF their liberty of action.

leaving the country, suspending pay
ments due Italians and treating them
as subjects of a hostile power.
Accordingly. a demand now is being
| voiced for abrogation of the agreement,
which, in addition to the alleged disre-
gard Of it's provisions by Germany, has
resulted in Observation-Disclosures in allied
nations regarding the situation.

ATTORNEYS WIFE
KILLED BY THUGS
st. Joseph Official Also At
tackled BY Assassin-Mur-
der Premeditated,
Belief.

st. Joseph, Mo. July 17.-Mrs. Os-
car Mcdaniel, wife of the prosecuting
attorney of Buchanan county, whose
Skull was crushed by assassins at her
home. about midnight last night, died
here this morning without .r%egaining
consciousness. The entire police and
sherlffs forces are engaged in the
search for the murderer or murderers.
An assassin fired five shots at her
husband, who engaged in a pistol duel
with the man. Neither was hit and the
man escaped. The attack was evident
ly carefully planned and it is believed
the assassin intended to kill both the
prosecutor and his wife. The police
connect the tragedy with an anGny-
nous threatening letter received by
Mcdaniel about a week ago.
Mcdaniel vas called down town by
q telephone call about 1880 p. m. He
found the call was a fake. Mcdaniel
hurried back home and, as he stopped
his car in front of the house, a man
opened fire on him from behind a tree.
After his ~assailant fled, the prosecutor
hurried up stairs to his wife's room,
where he found her senseless on the
floor, her head terribly crushed. She
had been beaten with some heavy blunt
instrument. ~Bloodhounds are being
used in an effort to track the slayer.
