TYPHUS BEING BROUGHT INTO
 UNITED STATES
 BY FOREIGNERS
President Called Upon For Authority To Place Ban
 Upon Immigration
SITUATION STUDIED
New York Health Officials Taking Every Precaution
 To Block Dread Disease

WASHINGTON. Feb. 10.-Aarmed by the increasing numbers of cases of typhus among immigrants arriving in New York, federal health authorities tonight were engaged in a study of methods to prevent introduction of the dreaded disease into the United States.
 The situation at New York, where more than 30 immigrants are aboard ships, suffering from typhus, was brought to the attention of President Wilson in a message from Dr. R. :. Copeland, New York health commis- sioner. Dr. Copeland called the pres ident'S attention to provisions of the quarantine act Of 1893, granting the president authority in the interest of public health to prohibit, in whole or in part, the admission of persons and property from such countries or ports as he may designate and for such u time as he may deem necessary.
 The message was forwarded to the treasury department.
 Assistant Secretary of the Treasury La Porte. in charge of the public health service. said tonight that the provisions of the quarantine act refer red to had been the subject of study tor several days, but, as the withhold ing of general permission to enter the country would be drastic step, off cials hesitated to put it into effect. Most of the typhus cases have been found among immigrants from south ern Europe, especially from Italian ports.
 Public health physicians, La Porte said, are working with the American consulS in southern Europe with in- structions to make a thorough exam ination of outgoing ships for possible typhus cases before bills -of health were granted.

 German Accused Of Against U. $.

LANCASTER. Pa. Feb. 10.-Miss Virginia Mackey-Smith. daughter of the late Bishop Alexander Mackay- Smith. of the Protestant Episcopal diocese Of Pennsylvania. and Captain Karl Boy-Ed. former German naval at tache at Washington, were married today in Berlin.
 A cablegram to this effect was re ceived from the brides mother by friends here, as published by the Lan- caster Intelligencer.
 Miss Mackay-Smith with her mother left their home in Washington last month for Germany.
 Miss Mackay-Smith and Captain Boy-Ed have been reported engaged several times, but each time it was denied. The first report was circu- lated shortly before Captain Boy-Ed and Captain von Papen were recalled from Washington by the German gov ernment in December. 1915. at the re- quest of President Wilson.
 The two officers were charged with having been connected with munition plots and the sending of supplies to German raiders from American ports. as well as plots with Mexico.

Colby Declines To Forward Senate
 Report Of Negotiations Between
 Morris And Japanese Ambassador
Secretary Of State Says That As No Definite Agreement Has Been Reached. He Considers Request Due To
 'AIisnterpretaton'' Of True Situation

two friendly minds instead of two con tending minds one representing America and one representing Japan.
 ''I think any attempt to take away the jurisdiction of the western states over the control of land, will be ob- stinately resisted and that the senate would never ratify such a treaty. as stunning that the treaty power had the right to invade the state for such a purpose
 Colby's letter te Senator Lodge fol lows:
 '.I have the honor to acknowledge the receipt of your setter of yester- days date requesting. if not incOm- patible with the public interest, that furnish the committee with a copy of the agreement reached by the Japa- nese minister and Mir. Morris
 Permit me to say that this request indicates a misapprehension of the status of the pour parlerS that have been going on for some time past with a view to reaching a friendly under standing as to the scope and terms of a conventional agreement yet to be negotiated by the plenIpOtentiaries O Japan and the United States, when they shall have been duly empowered to that end While I think I am war ranted in saying that substantial pro greSs has been made toward an ulti- mate agreement, there is no agreed text of which a copy could be com municated to the committee Tn ad- vance of the regular submission of whatever convention may be ultimate ly signed.
 T think you and tne committee will readily concede that any cOmmunica- tion of a record which is practically that of a preliminary comparison, of views, coupled with recommendations still the subject of examination, would be premature and might tend to de feat rather than aid an eventual set clement of a question which has been the source of much misunderstanding and misinterpretation for period oI many years"

LONDON. Aug. 7.-Opinion is sharply
divided in Great Britain over the oucs.
ton of the governments decision te
put the matter of reduction of ma.
tional expenditures in the hands of a
business mems committee headed bv
Sir Eric Geddes. The Parliamentary
opposition is raising a loud hue and
cry on the ground that the place to ex-
anime public expenditures primarily is
the House of Commons rather than
among business mems soviet. as the
committee is now termed.
Criticism outside of the House Gen.
ters more on the delay which must en-
sue, as the committee cannot get to-
gether until the middle of October be-
cause Mr.. Geddes is planning a long
holiday after his arduous duties in the
Lloyd George government. Discount
ing much criticism, because it is in
spired by political motives, the fact
remains that the government has taken
this radical step because Of the grave
condition of national finances and the
difficult job of making
material reductions in appropriations.
Just two years ago Mr.. Lloyd George
ordered everything "ruthlessly cut
down." but the need of economy is
even greater to-day, and that fact is
appreciated by responsible heads of
the government even more than by
their severest political critics who are
trying to make political capital out of
the present embarrassing position.
The so-called business soviet prob
ably will be composed of Lord Inch
cape, Lord Faringdon, Sir Joseph
Maclay, Lord Weir and Sir Richard
Vassar-Smith, representing some of the
country's greatest shipping and bank
ing interests. To prove effective the
necessarily must enioy
power almost as complete as that Of
the government. Unless it considers
questions of international policy it cam
not recommend cuts in appropriations,
and if it does there is bound to be
violent objection on the part of the
