DISINFECT BY SEA WATER
Produce Strong Antiseptic, Is Claim.

The possibilities of manufacturing strong disinfectant from sea water was discovery made in the bacteria logical department of the Liverpool university.
 During a series of experiments in the electric treatment of milk, Freder- ick c. Lewis, assistant lecturer in the university, developed the idea of pro- ducing strong antiseptic from sea water. This, according to the Liver pool Courier, was two years ago.
 Since then all the disinfection and cleansing of cultures and slides in the meteorological and pathological labc- ratories at the university have been done by an electric chemical apparatus which insures a powerful disinfectant from salt water.
 The apparatus employed on the Aqui- tania is of course on far larger scale than the one at the university. The principle, however, is precisely the same. There is an electrolytic cell, 8 reversing switch, and some ordinary insulating electric cable.
 The cell stands upon rubber mat, to insulate it, and is raised upon low table, to enable the contents to be poured out easily. It is filled with sea water and an electric current is then turned on and solution containing sodium hypochlorite, or available chlo- rine, will be obtained.
 The solution is useful as a sterilizer of drinking water, and on the Aquita- mia it is added to the water in the swimming bath.

BRITISH LOSSES 0N
 SONNE ARE 307,I69
CASUALTIES ON ALL FRONTS FOR MONTH OF SEPTEMBER
 WERE f19,54e.
THEY AVERAGE 4.127 PER DAY
French and English Press Dispatches Say That Considering the Character of the Fighting, Losses Have
 Been Small.

London.-British losses in Septem- 57tso5ee eet the .. E2ts Q Of more than >. 5, 800 day Inc casuaieirculat. ss. S fronts reported in this month were; Officers 5,439, men 114, ,110.
 Heavy as were the British losses in September, they were lighter than those of August, which were 127,945, daily average of 4,l27. In July, the first month of the Somme offensive, the losses were about half those of August or September, notwithstand- ing the fact that in July the British stormed the first line German de lenses. The casualties in that month were 59,675, so that the total for the three months of the Somme drive is 307169.
 French and English press dispatches report that, considering the charac ter of the fighting, the losses of the allies on the Somme are low. German reports dwell on the large losses with which it is said the allies are meet ing, which are declared to be out of all proportion to the ground gained The Overseas News Agency estimates that the combined French and Brit ish losses in the Somme battle up to September 15 amounted to about 500,- 000
 Since January 2S the British gov ernment has issued no figures of to- tai losses. Up to that time the daily average of losses from the beginning of the war was slightly more than 1000.

JAPANESE EMBASSY
 D.SCLAIhS f[P0RT
DECLARES STATEMENT REGARD ING ANTLALIEN LEGISLATION
 IS UNAUTHORiZED

Washington.-Responsibilityf for any statement that after the European war Japan would renew negotiations with the United States over immigra- tion and alien land legislation was disclaimed in a statement issued by the charge, Tokichi Tanaka. 1t was explained that an official 3,sss9he em- bassy who expressed views on the subject yesterday spoke personally and without any authorization.
 Furthermore, MT Tanaka declared that Baron Sakatani, the former Jap anese finance minister, who has sug gested in.speechles at New York that ------ 2 as ..-=:ss .S,sz=s5-y~.S4a Japan would take up the d1I5l fe.1-N issue again as soon as the war is over, is in no way authorized to speak for the foreign office, and was discuss ing the question solely as an infuen- tial statesman representing large body of Japanese public opinion.
 The embassy statement follows:
 "A press report concerning Japan ese-Ameriean relations that appeared in several papers this morning, con taining views said to have emanated from this embassy, contained several misrepresentations.
 Among other things, the most glar- ing are statements concerning the i'm migration and the California land law matter.
 As to,the question of the Japanese immigration into this country, Japan has for the present nothing whatever to negotiate about. What is generally known as the gentlemen's agreement is being observed to the satisfaction of our two countries. Waatever is oh jectionable in the proposed immigra- ton bill of the United States has been deleted.
 The California land law controver- sy may be said to be in abeyance since, as is apparent by the published correspondence between the Japanese and the American governments, neith CT government has yet arrived at q final disposition of the question. How ever, whether or not Japan will renew her protests in this matter at the end of the European war or whether she will revive the controversy in one form or other at all, this embassy has not the least knowledge"

Oregon Land Grant
Bills Are Taken Up

Washington, Feb. 1.-THE house pub
lie lands committee today took up the
Oregon and California land grant bills,
involving disposition of 100000 acres
of land in western Oregon, with a view
to framing legislation under the SUI
preme court decision giving congress six
months within which to provide a meth
cd for such disposition Representatives
of the interior, agriculture and justice
departments testified.
S. W. Williams of the justice depart
ment, telling of his Oregon investiga-
tions, said that he found few actual
settlers on the property and that the
land was highly valuable for timber
only. He considered that congress is
empowered to take the title to the lands
again and to dispose of them as it sees
fit, allowing the Oregon and California
railroad $3.50 an acre. He advised that
the government sell the land for what
it can get, but in manner to insure
its development.
