Through that process, they insist the
disease ultimately must give way be-
fore the fight on it. They continued
to resent all suggestions that New
York should be quarantined, and they
indicated a possible intention to take
up with various states the matter of
raising quarantines already put on
persons from New York.
The department of agriculture took
hand in the fight today when it is
sued an order releasing the shipment
of monkeys in Manila which were
consigned to the Carnegie laboratory

REPORT ON WoRkMEN'S CON-
PENSATION LAW IN TEXAS

Austin, Texas, July 12.-Reports of
27,625 accidents have been received
by the state industrial accident board
during the first ten months of the
present fiscal year, according to an
announcement made by the board to-
day. OF this number 79 were fatal.
Iuring the same period, the report
states, 12.2SS claims were filed. The
amount of compensation paid out by
insurance companies operating under
the workmen's compensation law dur
ing that period was s325,351.51, which
does not include SS3,729.S5 paid out
for medical expenditures.
As means of reducing to mini
mum the chances of accidents and
factory and other industrial enter
prises. Commissioner of Labor c. w.
Woodman has issued a statement rec
ommending to all employers of such
industries to paint red all safety de-
vices. and especially all receptacles
containing gasoline.
As a result of recent inspections
made by representatives of the labor
department, It was found that a large
per cent of accidents could have been
averted had the safety devices been
painted red to warn employees of the
danger.

Suggestion That Dead Portions Of the

into their fields and gather up in
sacks and burn the cotton squares

George C. Harris, Ringing merchant,
who has made a study Of methods
for saving the cotton crop at this
season of the year.
IL have recommended this to every
cotton farmer to whom | have talked

number of them told me they were
going home and give the scheme a
trial.
shortly after the weevil bores into
the square the square turns yellow,
dies and falls off Each square is a
nest in which other weevils are hatch
ed and to burn them destroys mill

This is troublesome and takes a great
deal of time, but it's worth while II
it saves a mans cotton crop.

LONG STAY IN
MEXICO NOW
INDICATED
ORDERS FOR WINTER CLOTHING
FOR TROOPS SAID TO HAVE
BEEN PLACED - SUPPLIES TO
PERSHING BY RAIL.

San Antonio, Tex, July 11.-Strong-
er indications that the United States
government is determined to hold
fast in Mexico and along the border
were afforded by today's develop
ments.
For one thing, Major General Fun
ston announced that twelve carloads
of supplies had gone forward Sunday
from Juarez to Brigadier General Per
shing's expeditionary force. For an
other thing, it is understood that
winter clothing has been ordered for
the troops. A third factor appears
with the rumor that heavier field
guns have been ordered sent to Ell
Paso. A fourth factor was the an
nouncement that the packing houses
of San Antonio, which are being
counted on to supply the troops
with beef and pork during their stay
in Mexico and along the border, have
begun to make arrangements to in
crease their capacity.

Much Interest in Villa.

General Funston and members OF
his staff are ma1'"esting intense in
terest in the r,bctts as to Villas
operations. Military men he,e are
agreed that If the bandit chieftain
has cut Carran7a's line of communi-
cation south of Ghlhulhua, he las
gained the whip hand and that cor
seuuently his forces may be increased
materially by desertions from the ar
mics of the de facto government as
economic conditions in Mexico have
become such that the leader who Of
fers most in the way of food and pay
is most likely to have the largest fol-
lowing. That Villa may regain con-
troll in northern Mexico is regarded
among the possibilities. If he
should be successful in that degree
by confning his operations to the
troops of the de facto government,
he could be expected to attack the
American troops in Mexico, said army
officers here.
Bearing the slogan, We'll continue
70 make Milwaukee famous" the first
contingent of the Wisconsin state
troops. the First infantry, will reach
Fort Sam Houston Tuesday night and
go into camp with the troops already
here.
All troops passing through San
Antonio this week will be served re-
freshments by the women of the Cath
olic and Protestant churches OF the
city.

NATION JOINS
IN FIGHT WITH
INF ANT PLAGUE
STATE HEALTH AUTHORITIES
EVERYWHERE PLAN CAMPAIGN
DISEASE SPREADlNG-ClTiE
BAR CHILDREN.

New York, July 11.-With an In
crease Of 1875 more cases of infantile
paralysis in Greater New York and
thirty-two deaths in the last twenty
four hours. word came today that
communities surrounding New York
are establishing quarantine against
danger of the introduction of the dis
ease from children fleeing from the
plague in the metropolis.
This is an increase of more than
100 per cent in the number of deaths
resulting from the plague in the last
twenty-four hours, compared with the
previous twenty four.hour record. In
Brooklyn sixty-eight new cases were
reported Monday as against 155 to-
day. There now is total of 1,27S
cases of infantile paralysis in the
greater city. Deaths since the out
break of the scourge number 270.
Many cities and towns in New Jer-
sey and New York are turning back
all children from New York City.
Paterson, N. j., which has had one
death from the disease has excluded
all children, no matter from whence
they come. 1t was announced that
500 children from New York already
have been deported.
The exodus of children from the un-
infected parts of the city continues.
II is estimated several thousand go
each day.
Red Cross Lends Hand.
The Red Cross today took steps to
aid in the work when it issued an
appeal for nurses to come to assist
the nurses there in their fight OH the
scourge. Miss Jane A. Delano, head
of the nurses department of the
Red Cross. will leave today to as
sumo charge of the nursing situation.
According to reports received from
there today, the hospitals are over
crowded with patients, and both doc
tors and nurses are becoming worn
out with their steady work.
Although DR.. w. c. Rucker, chiet
of the quarantine division of the pub
lie health service, was here To-Day
conferring with the city and state
health officials, the public health Of
fcials here kept in touch with the
situation all day long.

Supplies to Pershing by Rail.

Yesterdays shipment Of supplies to
General Pershings command was the
first to go forward by rail since the
United States government placed an
embargo upon shipments of all kinds
to Mexican purchasers. In retalia-
ton for this embargo, the Mexican
authorities forbade the Americans to
use the Mexican railroads to trans
port supplies to the eXpeditionary
force, and all provisions had to be
sent from Columbus, n. NJ, by motor
trucks. Immediately upon the lifting
of the embargo on all supplies for
Mexican purchasers, with the eXcep-
tion of munitions, the authorities OF
the de facto government reciprocated
bv granting the American authorities
permission to use the Mexican rail-
roads to send supplies to General
Pershing's men.
Steps designed to make the Big
Bend country raid proof were con-
tinued by General Funston today.
He has received instructions from
Colonel CASTOR as to the number of
troops required to give the region
adequate protection, but the strength
of the reinforcements to be sent has
not been made public, 1t is under
stood. however, that most of the ad-
ditional troops will be taken from
the contingents yet to report for the
border service so as to avoid dis-
rupting the assignments already made
But it is regarded as probable that
few of the state troops already sta
toned at FL Paso will be shifted east
ward in case a raid should become
imminent. Colonel Gaston's command
in the Big Bend country is now COM
posed of two regiments, the SIKH |
cavalry and the Fourth Texas infan-
trv. This force is regarded as in
adequate to protect the region, even
if minor raids should be attempted.

GERMANS FORCE FRESH
ATTACKS ON VERDUN FRONT;
ALLIES GAIN ALONG SOMME

PARIS, Aug. 14.--Flshting was in prog
ress on both banks of the Meuse In the Sec
tor of verdun during the night while on the
Somme front the French extended their
positions.
North Of the somme River, says the
French War Office in It's official commu-
nique, there was q violent cannonade In the
region Of Maurepas.
South of the river the French enlarged
their positions and captured elements of
trenches at Fay and Denlcourt.
on the Verdun front the fighting was
forced by the Germans. French positions
In the region of Hill No. 304, west of the
Meuse, and at Fleury east of the river. were
vigorously attacked by the troops of the
German Grown Prince three times, but all
the assaults were repulsed.
Between the Ose and the Aisne vio-
lent artillery struggle occurred on the Sec
tor Of Moullns and Sou st. Ouvent.
The success of the new French thrust
north of the Somme in Saturdays and Sum
days fighting increases the peril of the
German line from Comhles to Peronne The
capture Of the villages of Maurepas and
Clery, necessary to an advance against
Peronne from the north, is believed certain

road runs the Vlppacco River, the valley
of which Is followed by the most important
road and the railroad from Gorilla to
Trieste 1t Is in this valley that General
Cadorna strives to debouch to cut the most
direct communications with Trieste and to
envelop the hills east of Gorl2ia, which are
still in the hands of the Austrians and
are quite strongly fortified.

northern edge OF the Carso are overcome the

ported TO have started in the PLAYA sector,

ment of the Monte Santo positions, which
are under fire from the Italian batteries

by the Austrlans.
A battle Is reported to be in progress in
the Tolmino sector, and Italian detachments
are said to have already occupied the sub
urbs of the fortified town. which is eight
miles north of PLAYA. The Isonzo front
must necessarily be smashed here also, If
the whole line s to be securely in the hands
of the Italians and General Cadorna is to
start his mach eastward to Laibach, and
southwark to Trieste. Tolmino, however,
cannot resist long, its defensive value hav-
ing been greatly impaired by the fall of
