DR.. Siqueira Coutinho, who directs
the work of the class, lectured on the
achievements of DR.. Oswaldo Cruz from
the time he entered the Pasteur Insti-
tute of Paris, where he gained rank
among the scientists of the world
When Brazil sought all over Europe for a
scientist of wide reputation to under
take her difficult sanitary work, DR..
Continho said. the invitation finally fell
to DR.. Cruz, and special emphasis was
placed on the wonderful work he ac-
complished in developing the Institute
of Manguinhos, and the sanitation of
the city of Rio de Janeiro and of the
Amazon valley. Considering the oppo-
sition and difficulties overcome these
modern science, it was stated
Members of the class read special Sc
lections bearing on the work of DR.

lister of justice and interior of Brazil

TO MEET EMERGENCY.
Advance in Date for Graduating
West Point Class Considered

The chief of staff of the army and the
Secretary of War have under consider
alton the early graduation of members
of the first class at the Military Acad-
envy. An appeal for the advancement mt
In the date of graduation hitherto made
to the military authorities has been dis
approved by Gen. Scott and has not
been favored by Secretary Baker. 1t
would not be seriously considered now,
it is made known, If 1t were not for
an emergency that appears to require
an additional number of officers, es-
pecially if it shall be decided to apply
at once the second increment of army
increase that would not ordinarily be-
come operative until July !.
If the West Pointers are graduated
now. they probably will be commission
ed ahead Of the qualified civilian candi-
dates who took the examination in jan
uary for appointment as second lieu
tenants.

A chorus of several hundred members.
under efficient instruction and leader
ship, it is argued, affords peculiar OPP
portunity for studying the works of the
great masters. Not only is the best
effort put forth to produce the enects
intended by the composers, but the col
lateral features of the study of music
are not overlooked. Many of the great
works of music are coupled with events
or are themselves of unusual historical
interest.

The retention Of Grand Duke Nicholas
as commander-in-chief was considered
undesirable by the Russian minister of
war because of the grand dukes con-
nection with the Romanoff dynasty.
1t was announced several days ago in
a Petrograd dispatch to the London
Times that the government had found
it necessary. in order to checkmate mis-
chievious propaganda. to appoint a
generalissimo not connected with the
Romanoff family. The emperor, on his
abdication, transferred the supreme
command of the Russian armies to
Grand Duke Nicholas.

for the benefit and training Of its MEM
bers as well as the edification of the
music-loving public of the city. has
been encouraged both from within and
without to undertake an ambitious pro-

The appreciation of the work has been
so encouraging, 1t is said. that the
oratorio society will probably take the
initiative in proposing at some future
time musical festival or carnival not
unlike the festival of music of Cipcin

festival, to be repeated If found de-
sirable, possibly every two years.

NEW ALBANY, Ind,
DEATH TOLL IS 81
Of the Hundred Injured by
Storm Only Dozen Are in
Serious Condition.
PROPERTY LOSS, s1,133,000

By the Associated Press
NEW ALBANY, Ind, March 24.-With
six additional deaths reported during
the day. the work of searching the
debris proceeding satisfactorily and
measures of relief instituted for the
homeless, New Albany late today be-
gan to emerge from the gloom which
had enveloped the city after the storm
which wrecked portions of it late yes
terday.
The deaths reported to the chamber
of commerce brought the list of
casualties to thirty-seven. Three
fourths of the wrecked area. 1t was
said. had been explored and the re-
mainder might possibly yield additional
bodies. The record of missing has been
kept only in a desultory way, but even
that is being reduced almost hourly
by reports from missing persons who
have been cared for in private homes.
OF the 100 or more who were injured,
it was said. probably seventy-fve were
badly hurst. but less than dozen were
in a serious condition.
The institution of relief measures
was prompt. Citizens of Louisville.
led by the board of trade. subscribed
more than $4,000 and sent motor
trucks loaded with food and clothing.
Later In the day the chamber of COM
mefce issued an appeal to the country
for aid, estimating that 100000 was
needed to- properly care for the injured
and homeless.
Clearing Away the Wreckage.
The work of clearing away the
wreckage and searching the ruins for
bodies today was under the super
vision of a detachment of state troops.
Sixty were on duty today and 100 more
are expected tomorrow, when 200 in
mates of the Indiana State Reforma-
tory, at Jacksonville, three miles
away, will be put to work. Monday
with electricians and other skilled Ia
Dor from the institution. in an effort
to rehabilitate the stricken section.
The first organized effort to estimate
the property loss was made late today
by committee appointed by the cham
Der of commerce, the New Albany
real estate board and Red Cross rep
resentatives The committee. after an
examination of the devastated dis
tricts. placed the loss. including dam
aged or destroyed homes and contents,
at s1.133,0O0.
When the rescuers today examined
the ruins of the negro schoolhouse.
of bodies, they found a badly fright
ened but practically unhurt negro boy.
He had been pinioned beneath the
debris, but was protected from harm
by overhanging timbers. Further eN-
ploration of the ruins failed to reveal
others. This reduced the estimated
death list by more than a dozen.
A revised and corrected death list was
compiled by the chamber of commerce
and issued tonight.

To Call Guards If Desirable.

At the War Department it is stated
that there had been no recent develop
ments in the local situation to warrant
the department calling the District Ma
tional Guard into active service. but that
there would be no hesitation in resorting
to that course of action in case it is
found desirable. In the event of such a
call, the orders would come from the
Secretary Of War as the representative
Of the President, who under the law has
complete jurisdiction in the matter. In
case he should call out the local guards
men for the safeguarding Of govern
ment and other property in the District
of Columbia. he would be following in
that respect the example of the gov
ernors of Massachusetts, and Maryland
in ordering out the troops of those states
for similar purposes.
