officials intimated today.
Government officials are inclined to
see in the black list the allies pre-

keeping clear Of "the war after the

the United States, a. . neutral, will
not participate In, nor allow herself
to become victim Of, any such move.
Is understood to have been one un-
derlying reason for the American
black list protest.
The far reaching effect Of the black
list upon neutral trade and the feeling
that the trade war to follow military
consequences to neutrals, determined
the administration to enter z vigOr-

SECRET VISIT
TO INSTITUTION
Board o. Administration Takes uE
Published Report Made by
Two Doctors.

SPRINGFIELD, Ill, July 31.-Nero
would have Known better how to
handle feeb1emindedness than do
modern humanitarians. s
This was the statement which the
state board Of administration asked
DR.. n. j. Haiselden, OF "Bollinger
baby" fame to explain when he appear
ed before the board this morning to
make his report in regard to unsan-
itary. inhuman and filthy conditions
alleged to exist at the Lincoln Home
and COLONY.
Haiselden, in company with anoth-
er physician, visited the Lincoln in
stitution incognitO and collected in
formation which they later published
as the true conditions at the institu-
ton.
Chicago women became interested
in the matter and today are visiting
the institution and making a probe.
The state beard asked DIR. T. II.
Leonard, superintendent of the insti-
tuition, to make report and this was
read to DR.. Haiselden when he pre-.
scented his report. In this report
Haiselden made the statement re-
sarding Nero's ability to handle the
problem.
Haiselden,s explanation of the
phrase was far from satisfactory.
President Kern of the board, said
after the meeting. It was his belief
Haiselden meant they should be ex-
terminated before they became a
burden on the state.
DR.. Leonard's report refuted that OF
Haiselden in every particular.

Oats are making an average Of twenty

the thin land around Camden in

was afraid he would not find her alive.
We suppose she was dead, when he ar
