State Board Recommends
MuSzling Of ali Dogs

There was a meeting Monday in
the office of Governor Boyle, of the
State Board of Health, the quaran-
tine officer and the Attorney Gen.
eral, for the purpose of ascertaining
just what authority there was for the
enforcement of the muzzling of dogs
as precaution against the spreading
of rabies in Nevada.
1t was found that there is no State
law at the present time whereby the
State officials may order and enforce
the muzzling of dogs. and the matter
rests entirely with the county officials
of the several counties of the State,
who have the power to enforce such
an ordinance. In view of this fact
the members of the board made the
recommendation that the county
commissioners and town boards of
the State be requested to pass the
ordinance and to employ officers to
see that the ordinance is enforced

SUBMARINE SINKS
BRITISH STEAMSHIP
P. and 0. Liner Sent to Bottom by
Austrian Submarine Near the
Isle of Crete

London, January 1.-The big Pen
insular and Oriental liner Persia was
sunk by submarines torpedo near
the Isle of Crete on Thursday, with
heavy loss of life.
At least two Americans are be-
lieved to have been lost. One Robert
M. McNeely, was United States Con-
sui at Alden, Arabia. He was on his
way to assume the duties of his post.
The other was Charles H. Grant of
Boston, a merchant. on his way to
Bombay.
A Third American, Edward Rose,
schoolboy, who sailed from London
on the Persia, left the ship at Gibral-
ter.
The total loss of life is estimated
at 300. This calculation is reached
frommeager details thus far received.
1t probably will prove more. The
vessel carried 231 passengers. as
nearly as can be learned. and crew
of between $50 and 300.
So rapidly did she sink after the
torpedo struck her that only four life
boats were able to put off. There
capacity was 60 each.
The Persia was torpedoed at l
o'clock in the afternoon. The missile
tore hole in her side below the
water line.
A brief bulletin says that the loss
of life was large and that few Of the
male passengers or crew were saved.
With the large number of women
and children to be taken care Of. few
men could find places in the boats.
The disaster, measured by fatali-
ties. is expected to rank second only
to that Of the Lusitania.
The Persia was en- route to Bonn
bay. India. On Thursday at noon
she was in the waters between Crete
and Alexandria in the Eastern Medi-
terranean, which within recent weeks
have become the graveyard Of sew.
eral ships.
The Persia, a steamship of 5000
tons sailed from this port for India
on December 18. The sinking is laid
to Austrians, as the Germans and
Turks claim to have no submarines
in the Mediterranean.
