New York, Wall street, Aug. TO-
Additional victories of the allies on
the western front infused further en-
ergy in the stock market today. The
war equipments and the shippings
led the advance at large fractions to
a point with the other active special
ties in the rails and the coppers
which showed improvement with to-
bacco and the oils. Liberty bonds
were steady and improved, the 8 1-2

GERMANS DRINK RIVER WATER
And As a Result There is an Epidem-
ic of Typhoid

IL Vi lypuulu
Asheville, Aug. 10.-It became
known yesterday that there are many
cases of typhoid fever among the in
termed Germans at Hot Springs al
though the government medicalo f.
ficers stated that they have the epi-
demic under control, and that the
cause has been traced to the fact
that some of the Germans drank
French Broad river water. This Wa"
ter was not intended or provided pro-
vided for drinking purposes and the
entire sanitary system at the camp Is
said tobe perfect. With the cause
located and llcases isolated inside
the wire fences of the stockade there
is no alarm either in the town of Hot
Springs or elsewhere near the camp.
Hat Springs is 40 miles from Ashe-
vile. The epidemic has delayed the
movement of the Teut0ns to other
camps. No official statement on the
situation was made yesterday.
There are still about 1000 Ger
mans at the camp and it is said that
there are 100 cases of ever. These
figures could not be confirmed, how
ever, and it is believed in Asheville
that the number of typhoid cases is
much less.
