HE SAN FRANCISCU CALL, WEDNESDAY, JULY 24, 1901, SIX HUNDRED SCHOOL TEACHERS SAIL ON THE THOMAS FOR THE PHILIPPINES Some of Them Are Graduates of Stanford and University of California, While the Others Come From Over the Country---A Woman Who Was Refused Passage Gets Away Because Her Trunk s Put Aboard in Mistake — s T looked as though the early days of the war were back again at the army transport wharf yesterday. When an inspection of the steamship that drew the crowd to the front was made, however, all thought of war vanished. In- stead of men in khaki, the decks of the Thomas were crowded with men and women beund for the Philippines to act | us teachers in the Government schools. ‘orm was to be seen on s she steamed away, and, | there were not a dozen men in | all told, uniform on the wharf to see the vessel | | away. The relatives and friends of the pas- sengers made up for the lack of military dis; y came down in droves, and the big wharf was crowded an hour be- fore sailing time. A great'disappointment awaited them, however.. The teachers were put aboard as soon as their trunks were shipped, ard besides them not a soul | was allowed up thé gAngway, Nearly all | d at the farewells, therefore, had to be s long distance. Owing to the rush of Epworth Leaguers | many of the teachers did not get their | m trunks in them. They army official and had to sail without 1l be looked after by the &nd the trunks will be for- | warded on t Kilpatrick next Thursday week. There was one woman whose trunke went away, anfl she got a much desired trip to Manila in consequence. F. | Braucht and wife came out here frem the East with the Epworth League. He wag under contract to go to the Philip- pines for the Government. but transporta- tion wa. refused the home. wife and she was When the trunks were y from the hotel Braucht gave instructions for his wife’s to be taken to the ferry depot and his to the transport wharf. The expressman took all the trunks to the transport wharf and they were put down in the hold of the Thomas. When Mrs. Braucht inquired for her trunks at the ferries she was told they had not arrived. Luckily she met the ex- pressman and he told her where they were. When she reached the wharf the Thomas had pulled out into the stream. e explained the case to Superintendent Dock Scott £nd he sent her out in the )lunch_ On the Thomas the freight clerk said the trunks were aboard but could | not be got at. The matter was reported to the quartermaster captain, but he re- fused to give the woman a passage. Then Mrs. Braucht explained to him that every stitch of her clothes and all the money she had to get back home with were in her trunks and valise. The captain re- lented and consented to take her along, so owing to the lucky mistake of the ex- pressman Mrs. Braucht is now accompa- nying her husband to Manila instead of returning to her lonely home in Michigan. Owing to the fact that no outsiders were allowed rboard the Thomas for hours before sailing time only one stow- away was found. - He was a well-dressed, respectable Jooking man, who effered to pay his way as sdon as he was discov- — Fisher, B. glemeyer, Horace E.

E RS Disease in Human Beings Different From That in Animals. o i LONDON, July 23.—A feature of to- day’s session of the British Congress of Tuberculosis was Professor Koch’s paper, which was listened to with the deepest in- | terest by the big gathering in St. James Hall. = Lard Lister introduced the noted Ger- | man professor to the assembly with a few complimentary- words. During his ad- dress Dr. Koch said his experiments had satisfied him that human tuberculosis and bovine tuberculosis were radically differ- eng diseases and that he had amply dem- onStrated that cattle could not be infect- ed with human tuberculosis. The coun- ter propositiof that human beings were not liable to infection from bovine tuber- culosis was hard to prove, the dactor said, owing to the difficulty of experimenting upon human subjects, but personally he was satisfied.such was the case, and he recited at lefigth the post-mortem _evi- dence supporting this belief. Dr. Koch said if this point were conceded it re= mained to determine the chief ssurce of contagion. Continuing, he said that human im- munity to bovine infection disposed of the belief of infection through dairy products and Ne considered this smu'ce of danger so. slight as to be unworthy of precau- tionary measures. | Heredity was also an unimportant factor in the transmission of tuberculosis, though the contrary had long been be- lieved. Dr. Koch said the chief danger of contagion lay in the sputum of consump- tive patients, and that a remedy was to be found in a law preventing the con- sumptive from strewing contagion about him. Several methods to this end were available, said the doctor, the surest of which is isolation in sanitariums. This, unfortunately, was impracticable, but he strongly urged the establishment of special consumptive hospitals and the obligatory notification of the authoritles of the existence of the disease, the dis- infection of their quarters whenever con- sumptives changed their residence, and the | dissemination of informatldn to the peo- ple concerning the true nature of con- sumption, to aid in avoiding and combat- mgrt. » Koch highly ecomplimented Dr. Herman M. Biggs, pathologist and di- rector of the bactériological laboratories of the New York Health Department, upon the repressive measures concerning taken in New York, where, he said, the mortality from tuber- culosis had been reduced 3 per cent since . an ized by Dr. Biggs in New York to the study and imitatjon of all municipalities. | Dr. Koch closed his remarks by express- Ing his belief that the ultimate stamping out of tuberculosis was possible.

NEAREST THEE FOR A GALLOWS Citizens of Oklahoma Give Notice to the | Crooks. FORT SILL, O. T., July 22.—A law and order league has been formed to suppress the dozens of crooks who havé infested the country since the Kiowa-Comanche registration began. The organization has decided to print and distribute 1), 000 hand- bills bearing the following: “Notice is hereby served on all confi- dence men, pickpockets, thieves and crocks who are caught plying their voca- tion that they will be hanged to the near- est tree.” WASHINGTON, July 23.—Secretary Hitchcock said to-day,’ with reference to the effort to prevent thre opening of the Oklahoma Indian lands to settlement by injunction proceedings at El Feno, that the preparations of the depar:ment for the opening would proceed as if no Sult had been begun. ‘‘We shall not let the matter go by de- fault,” he said, “but we apprehend no obstacle from that proceeding. Any ome can bring a suit.” The Secretary to-day took cognizance | of reports coming from Oklahoma that | the men who are registering at El Reno | and Fort Sill are doing so with the inten- | tion of transferring their rights to others. “The report,” he said, “is to the effect that they can and will dispose of their | numbers at enormous profits. This is ab- surd, because it is impossible under the regulations for them to transfer their rights. For any of them to attempt to| do.so would be a. clear violation of the law. They take an oath mot to do such a | thing and to use their rights for their own exclusive benefit. There can be no | speculation in these numbers.” The Secretary alse said that reports are | coming to the department for schemes of | town sites, the promoters offering chances to the public. | “The only town sites which have been | authorized,” the Secretary said, ‘‘are those of the threo county seats. No others | have been sanctioned*and no one knows | where others will be. Hence all exceph those three are bogus and reports of their | establishment should e denounced as in- tended to deceive the publie.” Will Examine Library Sites.
