SLEEPING SICKNESS
SERUM DISCOVERED
Hope Grows That Immunizing
Agent May Be Found in
Blood Stream.
Rv the Associated Press

BY the Associated Press
NEW YORK, November 17.-Discov-
cry in the blood OF st. Louis sleeping
sickness convalescents of substances
which protect mice against the disease
was announced last night by the Rookie
feller Institute for Medical Research.
The announcement adds evidence for
hope generally expressed by medical
men that in the serum OF human beings
or Of animals having sleeping sickness
there will be found ultimately one OF
the immunizing agents useful for pro-
lection against encephalitis.
The institute studies have not ad-
vanced to the point Of testing this
serum on human beings. The i'm
munizing agent was detected during ex-
tensive experiments of much greater
scientific interest, which were also an
nounced last night.
Brain Tissues Borrowed.
These appear to disclose the active
cause OF the disease. They are de-
scribed by Leslie T. Webster and George
L. Fite. These workers inoculated the
brains of special strains of mice sus-
ceptible to encephalitis, with brain
tissue taken last Summer from fatal
cases of sleeping sickness, both in St
Louis and Kansas City.
The mice mostly developed sleeping
sickness From these mice brain It's
sues were removed and In turn given
to fresh mice. This was repeated Il
times. At the end of the fifteenth
transfer the infection in the mouse
brain was uniformly causing sleeping
sickness
The experiments indicated pointedly
that the cause of the disease Is virus
which cannot be seen under a micro
scope nor caught in the finest filter.
Signs 100 Per Cent Fatal.
Especially significant is the fact thai
when this infected mouse brain was in
stilled into the noses Of other NICE they
developed virtually 100 per cent fata
| signs of sleeping sickness. This bear:
out common medical belief that sleep
ing sickness attacks through the nose
and mouth.
Other tests, including trial of tht
mouse brain material on monkeys, in
dicated that this virus Is different from
certain other known viruses which have
been considered as possible causes o
| other outbreaks of sleeping sickness.

North Dakota'S month-old wheat em-
barge was partially lifted by Gov. VIII
liam LANCER today for six-day period

Spring wheat.
Durum wheat may be shipped by the
Governors order from today until mid
night, November D. after which the
embargo on out-State shipments Of all
wheat, declared October 10, becomes
effective again.
The proclamation partially lifting
the embargo said the increase in the
price of durum since the embargo was
declared had reached the point where
Canadian durum could be shipped into
the United States, even with q tariff
OF AZ cents, to compete with durum
wheat Of North Dakota.
The proclamation said millers using
durum wheat were purchasing or
threatening to purchase Canadian
durum in place of that grown in the
Northwest. and that many farmers de-
sired to sell at present prices.
Elevators Are Full.
Some independent and cooperative
elevators in the State. the proclamation
said. had stated their elevators were
full, and some wheat must be shipped
out to permit them to handle new
offerings.
Explaining his reasons for lifting the
ban on durum, Gov. LANCER said: IF
1 left the embargo on Canada would
get the business"
He estimated there were 25.000. 900
bushels of durum wheat in North Da-
kota.
Gov. LANCER said: Il am still willing,
If the other Governors will join me. to
place an embargo not only on Spring
wheat, but also on live stock and
poultry"
Price raising by decreasing the market
supply was the aim of the embargo.

Beer Dealers To
Pay Special Tax

The Bureau of Internal Revenue
desires that every dealer in malt
liquors wines and fermented fruit
juices be given an opportunity to
read the following statement, and
to that end requests the coopera.
ton of the press in publishing the
entire article.
There appears to be considerable
misunderstanding upon the part OF
dealers in malt liquors, wines and
fermented fruit juices as to their
liability for special tax in connec-
ton with the sale of their product.
In order to remove any misunder-
standing in regard to them after,
the following statement is submit
ted:
Purchasers of special tax stamps,
at the rate of $40 per year, bearing
the title, Retail Dealer in Fer
mented Liquors. may legally en-
gage only in the sale, in less guam
titles than five gallons at one time,
of fermented. (malt) liquors of 50
per cent alcoholic content by
weight.
Every person who sells or offers
for sale fermented malt liquors in
quantities of not less than five gal
Ions at one time, but who does not
deal in wines and fermented frui,
Juices, is considered a wholesale
Idealer in malt liquor, and, as such
is required to purchase a specia
tax stamp at the rate of $50 pei
year.
Purchasers of special tax stamps
at the rate of $2S per year, bearing
the title Retail Liquor Dealer

A wholesale liquor dealer shall

Special taxes are payable on a
fiscal year basis, beginning July l
of each year, and every 1.aler in
malt liquors or wines and ferment-
ed fruit juices is required to pur-
chase a new special tax stamp ef-
fective July l, 1888. The purchase
of a special tax stamp as retail or
