Response
BY Chief Justice Cornish

The response TO the resolutions
presented in honor Of Judge Web
ster. Judge Stevens and Judge True.
was then given by Chief Justice
Cornish, who spoke as follows:
Brethren Of the Bar:

buttons and your eulogies on these
four members Of our bar who have
passed away, especially Of the three
older, / am reminded the words

Judges True, Webster and Stevens,

briefly, belonged 70 former genera

The influenza and Other Diseases of
Like Nature Also Yield to
New Treatment.

New York, June 18.-Influenza and
pneumonia are no more to be feared
than boil on the back of the neck, &C
cording to Dr. Charles H. Duncan, one
of the founders of the Volunteer Hos
pital, who, in an address here today
before the convention Of the allied
medical associations of America, de-
scribed his method of combating
Spanish influenza by means of ''im-
munizing a patient to his own poison. %
Upon 246 patients i'll with pneumo-
mia and influenza last winter, Doctor
Duncan said he had used the treat
ment without one fatality or any
complications"
Briefly" the physician said, 81 take
one drachm Of mucous from the in
fected area and pasteurizing it in one
ounce of filtered water where it re-
mains several hours. One cubic cent?

taneously, viii effect a spontaneous
cure Of Spanish influenza, pneumonia,

ton. 1t will stop any cough, except

0. S. TROOPS FIGHT MExIGAES
4 General Engagement Fought With
Villas Rebels Near the Race
Track in Juarez.

Fl Paso, Tex, June 16.-American
troops and Mexican rebel forces
fought their first general engagement
at the Juarez race track shortly after
O'Clock this morning. The Ameri-
cans were victorious.
Villas rebels were driven from the
race track by rifle and machine gun
fire and many prisoners were re-
ported taken by the cavalry which
surrounded the race track on the east
and southeast according to an official
announcement at military headQuar-
tiers early today.
One American artilleryman was
killed and another severely wounded
in fighting with the Mexican rebel
forces under Villa and Angeles early
this morning after American troops
had crossed the Rio Grande into
Juarez. The casualties among the
American troops we're the result OF
sniping that was carried on following
a bombardment of the Mexican rebel
positions by the SD Field Artillery.
The bombardment lasted a half hour,
in which time a number OF shrapneI
shells were sent hurting over the city
track, where the rebel positions were
Immediately following the lombard
ment the American cavalry regiments,
the 5th and It'll, began a general en-
circling movement. They hoped in this
movement to completely cut off the
escape of the Villa forces to the noun
tains in the southeast, and also keep
them from crossing to the American
side of the border, where they might
harm American lives and property.
When Brigadier General Erwin
learned of the sniping being done by
the Mexican rebels he ordered that
twenty-five of the best m6rksmen
among the American forces be Sc
Iected and stationed at points where
they could stop the sniping- General

American troops here, has kept in

AIRMER SAFELY CROSS OCEAN
Alcock and Brown Fly From New
FoundIand TO Irish Coast in
Record Time.

London, June 16.-The final goal Of
all the ambitions which flying men
have ventured to dream since the
Wright Brothers first rose from the
earth in a heavier-than-air machine
was realized this morning, when the
young British officers, Capt John Al
cock and Lieut. Arthur Brown, landed
on the Irish Coast after the first non
stop flight across the Atlantic Ocean.
Their voyage was without accident,
and without unforeseen incident so far
as can be learned. It was a straight
away clean-cut flight achieved in six
teen hours and twelve minutes-from
Newfoundland to Clifden, Ireland, a
distance of more than 1900 miles-or
at the rate of 12O miles an hour.
But the brief and modest description
which comes from the air men at Cliff
den tells of an adventurous and amaz-
ingly hazardous enterprise Fog and
mists hung over the North Atlantic,
and the Vickers-Vimy biplane climbed
and dove, struggling to extricate her
self from the folds of the airplane's
worst enemy.
She rose to 1900 feet, swooped
down almost to the surface Of the sea
and at times the two navigators found
themselves flying upside down only
close to the water.
Describing the experiences of him
self and Lieutenant Brown, Captain Al
cock in a message from Galway to the
Daily Nail, says:
I'VE had a terrible journey. The
wonder is we are here at all We
scarcely saw the sun or moon or stars.
For hours we saw none of them. The
fog was very dense and at times we
had to descend within three hundred
feet OF the sea.
For four hours our machine was
covered with a sheet Of ice caused by
frozen sIeet. At another time the fog
was so dense that my speed indicator
did not work and for few minutes it
was very alarming.
I'VE Topped the loop; I do believe,
and did a very steep spiral. We did
some very comic stunts for / had no
sense of horizon"
