TYPHUS EPIDEMIC IS NOW CHECKED
Northern Serbia Is Now Believed to Bc About Free From Ravagcs 
 of Disease.

Saloniki, June 10, (By .Mail.)-The typhus epidemics at Kavabla, Monas- fir, Uskub, Leskovatz and some other smaller places in southern Serbia now are believed to be checked, say Red Cross reports received here. K, At all these points small typhus hospitals have been set up under the direction of American physicians and E nurses. Disinfecting stations have ; heen established and in them thou sands of refugees and soldiers are . cleansed.
 - Serbian officials have thanked the Red Cross for its help in suppressing the epidemics, both of smallpox and typhus.
 The food supply of hundreds of thousands of Serbs who have returned to their homes in Usgub, Monastir, Pi- rot and Guevgeli is now believed to have passed the critical stage as the American food administration has shipped large quantities of flour to those places and the grain harvests are reported to be fairly good.
 The Red Cross is taking steps to insure the permanency of it's institu- tions established in Serbia, particular " the orphanages.

WHO CAPTURED GUN
 ON BOSTON COMMON ?
War Department Seeks to Settle Con troversy Between Massachusetts
 and Connecticut.

Boston, Aug 2.-Connecticuts claim to the German hoWitZer which now stands on Boston common has caused the issuance of orders by the war de- partment for the collection of evidence regarding the capture of the big gun. The question at issue is how and by who mthe howitzer was taken. Con necticut which wishes the gun remoV- ed to Hartford, claims that the 1O2d infantry was chiefly responsible for obtaining the piece.
 The gun came into possession of the Yankee division at Trugny after the fighting of July 21-22, 1918. It disap- peared shortly afterward, but was dis covered in the possession of an engi- neers' outfit and subsequently, restored to custody of the Twenty-siXth dlvi- sion. Records indicate that there were four organizations of the Yankee division in the vicinity when the Ger mans were driven away from their big gun-the 104th infantry, 102d infan- try, 102d field artillery and 101st ma- chine gun battalion.
 Major Gen. Clarence R. Edwards, who commanded the division in France and who is in command of the Northeastrn department. has been di- rected to report on the subject to Washington.

AIRLANE EQUIPMENT
 PERFECTION SOUGHT
IndestructibIe Gasoline Tanks, Auto- matic Cranl1s, and Portable Han-
 gars Are Among Necessities.

Washington, Aug. 2.-Indestructi- ble gasoline tanks, automatic cranks and portable hangars are a few of the airplane equipment devices which the army air services engineering section is seeking to perfect. American in ventors have been asked to assist.
 The gasoline tank desired would withstand "a salvo of 5 shots fired at a range of 30 yards, the ammunition consisting of service, tracer, incen- diary and armor-piercing bullets, without fire resulting" A maximum weight limit of 75 per cent. more than the ordinary tank has been fixed.
 An automotic cranker, mounted on a truck and electrically driven, is un- der experiment. This instrument is designed to offset the great difficulties now experienced in starting the big bombing planes which are expected to be the type adopted in aerial com the propeller giving the twist neces- sary to start the cylinders to firing and is then automatically disconnected.
 Portable hangars of canvas of the type now used, are very unsatisfac- tory, according to aviation officials They either are too small for the pur- pose or are easily blown down by moderate wind. The hangar sought would be large enough to hold four planes and would be capable of being solidly fixed when erected.

NEW FACTORY WILL
 BE ALL FIRE PROOF
Arrangement Of Rooms of 6-Story Building Of FaInir Bearing Co.

The new siX-story factory which is beng erected by the Fafnir Bearing company, is to be absolutely fireproOf, according to Raymond R. Searles, general superintendent of the' fac tory. The sixth floor of the building will contain an up-to-date research, experimental and testing department. This department says MT. Searles, will have much new equipment and many special testing machines.
 The other floors of the factory are to be used as follows: The ground will be used for general storage, and the second floor is to be an extension of the grinding department and all the borlgS and facing will be carried on here. The third floor is to be an ad- d1tlon to the machining departm ent The chucking- machines with maga- zine atta chments5 will be moved from the old building into the new, and the forged rings will be machined there in the future.
 MT. Searles said that it was at first intended to make the fourth floor into an extension of the tool room, but the plan now is to move the second operation on that floor of the new building. According to the present pldL, the IOO1 room Will De moved LO the west end of the same floor which it now occupies.
 Anew department is to occupy the Affth floor of the building.
 The arrangements in regard to the Hart & Cooley buildings, have not be decided upon there after the concern moves out. The final inspection, as sembling departments and the plac- ing and shipping rooms will be trans ferred from the Fafnir Bearing com pany to the Hart S5 Cooley plant.
 Extensive alterations, said Superin- tendent Searles, will be made, includ- ! ing a smoking room for the men and comfortable rest room for the wo- men. In addition to this, a first aid departent will be installed.

FIST FIGHTING IS
 WORST IN CHICAGO
Bloody Rioting Of Past Few Days Has Entirely Disappeared and Calm
 Returns

Chicago, Aug. 2.-Calm prevailed throughout the black belt district of the outh side today and but for the presence of soldiers and policemen, there was little to indicate that for four days and nights the district was terrorized by fights between whites and negroes that resulted in 35 deaths and the injury of hundreds of peo- pie.
 One fist fight between a white man and negro was the only report of trouble for the 12 hours preceding this morning. Several fire alarms were answered during the same period, but in each instance it was reported race feeling had nothing to do with the origin of the flames.
 With quiet restored in the "black belt the legal machinery of the county began active operations in in vestigating the riots.
 More than a hundred of the pris- oners held at the police stations in the riot zone have thus far been in- terrogated, it was announced today and from them confessions were said to have been procured which will lead to further arrests on more ser- ous charges than those on which the many prisoners are now held. The officials declared conspira cies among negroes to snipe policemen and whites had been revealed, and also similar combinations among whites to burn the homes of negroes.

RUMANIANS POOR BUT PROUD,

Bucharest, Aug. 2.-Red Cross field workers here have noticed that one of the most striking traits in the Ru- manian people is their sense of pride. With all the misery and poverty of the poor, they never beg. They are always content with what the Ameri- cans give them.
 At the distribution centers there is never complaint, protest or clamor. The Rumanians are always grateful for what they get, however little if may be. Probably no people on earth endure hunger and suffering with more resignation and patience

PEACE COMMITTEE
 APPROVES TREATY
Recommends That French Chamber of Deputies Ratify Terms
 With Germany.

Paris, Aug. 2.-The peace committee of the chamber of deputies which, by a vote of 34 to 1 yesterday, recom- mended to the chamber that the German peace treaty be ratified, before balIoting, listened to Georges minister stated that the efforts of the government tended toward the recov- cry of the entire tonnage lost by the French during the war and also the tonnage which the government had been unable to construct in the same period.
 Unfortunately, M Leygues said part of the guarantee disappeared at Scapa Flow, but the sinking of the German fleet was a violation of the armistice and thus involved the re- sponsibility of Germany, which might be called upon to answer with what ships remained or by the delivery of naval material.
 After recalling the magnificent role played by the French Navy during the war, and especially in the Mediter- ranean, the minister said France could not rival England or the United States, but must have a fleet assuring her naval position.
 The commission recognized that the peace treaty meant the disap- pearance of the German fleet. Former Premier Viviani, who presided, called upon the commission to vote on the treaty. Deputy Louis Marin, who
