PAGE TWO. Che Casyer DENVER MAYOR BLOGK RECALL Rehearing of Election Argument Denied by High Tnbunal. DENVER, Colo., May 23.—Mayor Ben Stapleton lost his last legal battle to prevent a recall election today when the state supreme court in a brief opinion denied the im plication of the city attorney's office for a rehearing in the application for a writ of mandamus recently upheld by the court. Unless some other legal case is instituted imme- diately the election commission of Denver must certify the names on the recall petition and forward them to the city council which will order a special election within ninety days. Petitions bearing more than 26,000 signatures were presented with City Clerk and Recorder W. §. Lail, late in March. He refused to transmit the petitions to the city election commissiof for certification and sponsors of the recall movement petitioned the district’ court for a writ of mandamus to force the filing of the petitions. After a hear ing lasting several days, Judge C. C. Butler of the district court upheld the contentions of the recall backers’ attorneys and granted the writ. An appeal was taken to the state supreme court which on May 5 handed down a decision upholding the ruling of Judge Butler and ordering the granting of the writ attorneys, representing Mayor pleton were given ten days’ time in which to file a motion for a ™- hearing. ‘This was filed with the court last Monday, eleven reasons being set forth upon which the mo- tion was based. The opinion today disposed of this motion and has opened the way for the recall. The city election commission must examine the 206 petitions containing the 26,000 names and eliminate duplications and names of persons not entitled to vote, If when this work is concluded the petitions still bear sufficient signatures, the peti tions then will be certified to the city council which must fix a date for the special election. at.

Thence, it is discharged into the atmosphere, in “pulsations, by means of a simple syphon. To obtain best results in an or- dinary room, the experts place an electric fan beside the syphon tip in order to distribute the gas, uniformly about the room. The apparatus for measuring and releasing the gas can be set to release the exact quantity desired by the physician.

Having successfully demonstrated the curative qualities of the gas on human beings, Uncle Sam now is seeking to apply it to the animal kingdom. ‘The bureau of animal in- dustry is making tests of the gas as a prophylactic among the cattle herds, which have béen decimated by the epizootic of hoof and mouth dis- ease. The tests were suggested by R. H. Ballard, a California engineer, who claims a complete cure of cold from one sitting in the gassing cham- ber in the capitol here. Through friends, Mr. Ballard interested Secre- tary of Agriculture Wallace in his idea and the result was a test of seven herds of cattle under the direc- tion of Dr. John R. Mohler, chief of the bureau of animal industry. Three herds “broke out" with the disease despite the gas treatment but the other four escaped.
