New York, Oct. 29.—For 450 suc- cessive days physicians at the deten- tion hospital on North Brother island have examined Mary Mallen in hopes that she might be fouild free from typhoid germs. On several occasions 10 germs have been found, but on the following day they have reappeared and on no two successive days have they been missing. The physicians are puzzled, but say there is nothing to-do but keep the woman in the hos- pital until such time as the germs disappear.. The woman was first heard of on Long Island, where a sporadic outbreak of typhoid occurred. It was traced to her, but she got away i and in another place ohtained a posi- tion as cook. The family developed typhoid and again she moved, only to be the cause of another slight epi- demic of typhoid. The woman has never shown any of the symptoms of the disease, but for nearly a year and a nalf she has been thoroughly infect- ed with the germs. Unless some method of driving the bacilli from her system is discovered Mary Mallen’s address, for an indefinite period, will be the detention hospital. UNDOUBTEDLY CORRECT. Interview With Kaiser Published in English Paper. Berlin, Oct. 29.—The foreign office said that the interview given to an unofficial representative Englishman by Emperor William and published in the London Daily Telegraph had been sent to his Tajesty, ‘Who 15 Hunting at Wernigetode. - In this conversition the emperor told of proofs of his good will to Great Britain, Uatil a reply from his majesty is recetved the for- elgn oflice cannot afirm that all the details of the conversation are cor- rectly given, but the interview ia re- garded as a substantlally accurate re- production of the conversation the ei.peror had with the distinguished Englishman. “It is an historical fact,” an official of the foreign office said, “that the French and Russlan governments made suggestions to the German gov- ernment, which, if accepted, would have led to joint intervention in the Boer war.” The mention of this historical inci- dent was not intended, it was ex- plained, to affect the relations since established between Great Britain and France and Great Britain and Russia. Many Face Death in Wreck. St. Louis, Oct. 20.—More than a score of passengers were injured and nearly one hundred faced death in a head on collision between two cars of the Illinois Traction company five miles south of Edwardsville. The limited chair car Danville, running on a fast schedule from East St. Louis to Springfield, was stopped at Sand Pit, a way station, to take a siding, when a southbound car from Springfield to TFast St. Louis, running at forty-five miles an hour, struck it and both cars were smashed. Mr. Bryan says he does not like the idea of running against two Republic- ans. He will discover later that he is running against about 8,000,000 Repub- licans. Good Clothes and Nothing Else.

OBJECT LESSON NEEDED Senator Dixon of Montana Authority for the Statement That the Mikado, Seeing His Subjects Were Anxious for War With the United States, Asked President Roosevelt to Assist in Giving Them a Scare. Kalispell, Mont., Oct. 20.—The At lantic fleet was sent to Japan at the request of the emperor to overawe his subjects, was the statement made by United States Senator Joseph M. Dix- on in an address at Kalispell. Mr. Dixon said it was known at ‘Washington long before the fleet start- ed on its spectacular voyage around the world that the sentiment of many of the people of Japan was likely to bring on war. This sentiment was not shared by <the ruler and his coun- cillors, but was so great they could make no headway against it. Then it SENATOR DIXOM. was that the emperor decided to ask President Roosevelt to assist him in clearing the situation by sending a large and imposing fleet to strike ter- ror to the hearts of those Japanese subjects who insisted on war with a power of whose immense resources they knew nothing. It was to be an object lesson. President Roosevelt was communi- cated with and later the plan was ap- proved and the great fleet prepared for its trip around the world. The object lessou, said the senator, was successful even before our fleet reached the shores of the island em-} pire.
