 In personnel. the secretary says, the navy advanced to second place in 1908 dropped to third in 1911. fourth in 1913 and to sixth in 1916.
 Captain Sims is quoted as saying taget practice fell off between 1911 and 1913 and that during the last practice it came up about forty per cent. Rear Admiral Fletcher is credited with the statement that re- cent practices were at 16.000 and 1S, 900 yards, and "it is believed that scores recorded are higher than ever in the open sea-

HUMAN BLOOD |S
 BEST FOR SERUM
 FUR PARALYSIS
Republican A. p. Leased wirel

NEW YORK, August 27.-Serum manufactured from human blood is pre- eminent in treatment of persons afflicted with infantile paralysis in the opinion of Dr. Simon Flexner director of the Rockefeller Institute for Medi- cal Research, it became known tonight. Dr. Flexner has recommended the treatment ito the members of the American Medical Association. The facts he has adduced are embodied in an article contributed to the Journal of the American Medical Association.
 Evidence in favor of this treatment shows that if a serum prepared from the blood of monkeys which have had the disease is injected into healthy monkeys they either cannot acquire in fantile paralysis or else if they do con- | tract it. the severity of the ailment is modified. Some times the treatment arrests the paralysis in the midst of it's progress.
 Dr. FleXner comments upon tne re- port of Dr. A. Netter, who put the treatment to the test in the course of his practice.
 pr. Netter in making the serum used the blood of patients who had entirely recovered from infantile paralysis. An interesting feature of his work, it is said, is the fact that one of the per 1 sons who donated blood for this pur- l pose had had the disease thirty years ago. This demonstrates, according tC
 modern medical teaching, that the i'm munity conferred upon this person by l the disease thirty years before had lasted throughout this iong period, be
 cause the agents, or "anti-bodies,
 which originated in the blood when tho l invading germs attacked him had re-
 mained on duty to repel possible sec : ond invasion.

 WASHINGTON, Aug. 27.-Plans for adjournment of congress next Friday are not maturing rapidly or certainly. The crisis in the railroad situation is the principal obstaele and no one to- night would predict when the long and arduous session would end.
 Well laid plans for adjournment at the end of the week were in progress yesterday when President Wilson's visit to the capitol in connection with the threatened strike disturbed all call culations Leaders are going ahead, however. on the assumption that con- gress may adjourn when it completes the legislative program now before 1t.
 The senate has begun the final drive on the emergency revenue bill and will continue consideration of the bill to- morrow.
 Senator Underwood will make an other protest against the proposed in creased tariffs on dyestuffs. Senator Phelan of California wants amend ments to the wine tax and Senator Overman of North Carolina will lead revolt against the proposal to tax manufacturers of all materials enter ing into munitions of war five per cent on their net profits. He will propose to exempt all agricultural products from this tax.

As a result of two automobile acci- dents yesterday afternoon, one Mexican child was killed and three others are lying at the point of death.
 Beatrice Terra, aged ', the daughter of Joaquin A. Terra. of East Monroe street. was instantly killed when an automobile in which she was riding blew out a tire and turned turtle. The accident occurred about ) o'clock yes terday afternoon about a mile from Glendale on the road between Glendale and Phoenix. Her brother, Leopoldo aged 1S-months, and her brother, Joa . quin, Jr., aged 12. were seriously in- jured.
 Luis Martinez, aged 9, the lad in- jured in the second accident, was hit by an auto early in the evening on the Tempe road.
 The young girl who was killed was with her parents at the time of the accident. Besides her parents the ma chine carried her three brothers, Joa- quin, Jr. Ernesto, aged II. Leopoldo aged IS months. and her grandmother { Angelita De Garcia. MT. and Mrs Enario Garcia and children. Jose. An gelita, Ernesto and Manuel, were alsC occupants of the machine, but were not injured
 According to an eye witness, the ma chine carrying the two families was proceeding from Glendale to Phoeni, at a terrific rate of speed. About g mile east of Glendale, Terra, who is i the owner of the ill l-fated auto, anC who was driving at the time attempted i to pass another machine carryins Ralph Hall the son of a rancher living near Glendale. Willby Nevil, of tho | same place, and Fay Hawks, the sOr of Postmaster Hawks. of Glendale Roth machines were going in the same direction.
 1 As Terra drew up opposite the ma chine carrying the three Glendale lads he put on more power in an effort tt pass. The machine stood the test il good shape, but a tire, unable to stand the terrific strain, blew out causing | the machine to turn over, striking tb smaller auto carrying the Glendal 1 lads The ill-fated car turned owe and over strewing its occupants ol both sides of the road for a considera
 ble distance. When the mad career o the car finally stopped there was littl left of it.
 l Witnesses rushed to the scene am gave all aid possible. It was immedi
 ately seen that little Beatrice was be yond human aid and attention wa given to the injured. Outside of mino injuries and severe shaking up, non of the grown occupants of the machin were seriously harmed.
 Little Leopoldo and his brother Joa quin were hastily loaded into a passin lauto, and a mad dash started for tn

Italy and Germany nave been drift ing steadily toward war The declara- tion became inevitable when Italy re- gently sent troops to Saloniki to CO., operate in the campaign of the entente allies on the Macedonian front, as Ger many is directing the opposing forces and has troops on this battle line.
 Italy's position in regard to Germany has been an anamolous one since Italy withdrew from the triple alliance May 23 of last year and declared war on Austria. Although by this act she ar rayed herself against her former allies Germany and Austria, she remained officially at peace with Germany until yesterday.
 Before Italy took this step Germany exerted every effort to induce her to remain neutral, sending to Rome as an ambassador Prince von Buelow. The prince for some time aveTted war be- tween Austria and Italy. and when he saw a rupture was inevitable took steps toward preservation of an off cial peace between Germany and Italy. He negotiated a special agreement un- der which, in case of war between Aus tria and Italy Germany and Italy pledged themselves to respect the prop critics and lives of their respective sub jects in each others domain.
 According to unofficial reports from Europe, Italys allies were dissatisfied and at the Paris council of entente powers in February last. asked the Italian representatives why their na : tion was not at war with Germany Italy already had agreed not to con- clude a separate peace, and at the Paris conference sanctioned the plan for a permanent high council of the entente powers for future conduct of the war The increasing cooperation among the entente allies and the necessity foI bringing into service Italy's surplus ot troops, gradually brought Italy into such a position that it became evident a declaration of hostilities against Germany was certain.
 The first overt act in this direction occurred shortly after the Paris confer ence. February 29 Italy requisitioneC 34 of the 37 German steamships in- termed in Italian ports, to help mee the pressing needs of the allies fol shipping facilities. Other indication! of approaching war have been ob- served in recent weeks. German court ruled that Italy and Germany were actually, though not formally. a war. It was reported unofficially tha Germany had taken charge of the de fense of Triest. More definite indica tion was the severance last month O the commercial agreement providing for mutual respect of the regiment O each other. Italy and Germany sev cred diplomatic relations last year
 Italys action probably will have lit tie effect in the military situation il the immediate future. although as tn war goes on it may have a more i'm portant bearing. On the Austro-Ital ian front Italy finds active use fo hardly more than half her army, am in future can send. available troops t any front Having committed hersel already to the Macedonian campaign Italy's step is of no significance as re spects that theater of war. German hereafter will be free to take such par in the Austro- Italian campaign as ma be decided on by the Teutonic allies either in the way of leadership or b utilizing her soldiers when needed.
