Alarming Precautions Are on Foot to Deal With the Outbreak That May Soon Become Epidemic. LONDON, Jan. 11.—The manager of one j of the largest trans-Atlantic lines was { asked byea Call correspondent to-day if | he expected an unusual number of Amer- icans to be present in London at the time of the coronation of King Edward. He id: No. By May I fear we shall have such | a smallpox scare and epidemic that Lon- | don will be in quarantine when King Ed- ward is crowned.” That this is by no means a'pessimistic forecast is evidenced by the fact that th line referred to began this week to have tne crews of its ships vaccinated prior to leaving London for New York. Other lines are following its example, fearing that any day the American authorities may place London shipping under an embargo on account of smallpox. The vaccination of the crews is only a preliminary to the same operation in the case of passengers, | the English shipping firms or agents hav- ing no desire to undergo the financial loss which would be involved by the detention of vessels having on board unvaccinated passengers or crews. In this respect the shipping interests are ahead of the United States Consulate, which up to the present has taken no stéps to protect health at the home ports. Alarming Precautions. On all sides in the United Kingdom alarming precautions are on foot to deal with the outbreak. The total of smallpox cases in London now amounts to only about $00, but the cases are so scattered that they create the greatest anxiety. Medical men point out that the danger lies not so much in the proportion to the population as in the proportion to the usual smallpox figures of the metropolis, which generally ~ scarcely amount to & score per annum. London's laboratories are all phenome- nally busy in turning out lymph, thou- sands of tubes of which are daily sup- plied, but even so the demand cannot be met. Almost all of the large firms are ordering their employes to be vaccinated. Corporations are appropriating sums for tne erection of smallpox additions to the hospitals, while several —Steamers have been purchased in London for the accom- modation of the present and expected pa- tients. Expert opinion prophesies that the epidemic will not reach its height un- til May. The effect of such a condftion of things on the coronation, international business and English trade is almost in- calculable. Seamen Not in Danger. NEW YORK, Jan. 11.—In steamship cir- cles the opinion was freely expressed to- day that the report from London regard- ing the fear of an e?idemlc of smallpox there during the coming spring and sum- mer Is exaggerated. So far as steamship crews are concerned no apprehension :is felt. Smallpox, it was said, is exceedingly rare among the sailors of the trans-Atlan- tic lines, because it is the regular custom to have all members of the crews vacci- nated before they are allowed .to enter upon their duties on board the steamers, OF INTEREST TO PEOPLE OF THE PACIFIC CQAST Changes Made in Postal Service and Army and Navy Orders Issued.

A request to the State Medical Institute, 328 Elektron building, Fort Wayne, Ind., stating that you desire one of their free trial packages, will be com- plied with promptly. The Institute is di sirous of reaching that great class of men who are unable to leave home to be treated, and the free samples will enable them to see how easy it is to be cured of sexual weakness when the proper reme- dies are employed. The Institute makes no restrictions.” Any man who writes will be sent a free sample, carefully sealed {n a plain package, so that its recipient need have no fear of embarrassment or pub- licity. Readers are requested to write without delay. Where ADVERTISEMENTS. Catarrh Is Most Fatal —— Less favored sections=s. of 20 deaths from _ The above map has been carefully com- piled from United States documents by The Pe-ru-na Medicine Company of Co- lumbus, Ohio. The figures were taken from the latest mortal statistics ub- lished by the' Government and entirely agree with the archives kept at The Hartman Sanitarium. The map is made in four shades. The lightest shade shows the States which have the lowest per cent of deaths due to catarrhal diseases. In these States very close to 42 per cent of all deaths in 1890 were due to catarrhal diseases. That is to say, four out of every ten deaths were from catarrhal affections. In the States of next darker shade the per cent varies from 42 to 45. In the next darker shade 45 to 48 per cent of the whole number of-deaths resulted from catarrhal diseases. In the darkest shade we have indicated the States in which over 50 per cent, or one-half or more, of all the deaths were directly traceable to catarrh as the cause. This is an appalling state of affairs. This nation has got to confront the fact that catarrh has become a na- tional curse. Catarrhal diseases threaten the life of our people. CGver ane-half of the people suffer from some form or degres of caiarrh. Fully thirty-five million people are personally interested in the discovary of a radical catarrh cura. Hon. Dan A. Grosvenor, of the well- nown Ohio fam- seesoeeb ily, in a letter written from ‘Washington, D.

A great many remedies for temporary relief have been devised from time to time, such as sprays, snuffs, creams and other local applications, but, as a rule, the medical profession has little or no enthusiasm in the treatment of catarrh. It is generally pronounced by them to be incurable. It therefore created a great sensation in medical circles when Dr. Hartman announced that he had de- vised a compound which would cure cé- farrh permanently. The remedy was named Pe-ru-na, and In a short time be- came known to thousands of catarrh suf- ferers North, South, East and West. Letters testifying to the fact that Pe- runa is a radical cure for catarrh began to pour in from all directions. Thou- sands of such letters are on flle In the office of the Pe-ru-na Medicine Company. These letters are not used for publication except by the express wish of the writer. A pamphlet filled with such letters will be sent to any address free. This boolk should be read by all who doubt the cur< ability of catarrh. If you do not receive prompt and satis- factory rerilts from the use of Peruna, write at once to Dr. Hartman, giving a full statement of your case, and he will be pleased to give you his valuable ad- vice gratis.

MARGONT PLANS GREATER TEST Powerful Apparatus Be- ing Made for Wire-: less Work. Speclal Dispatch to The Call. LONDON, Jan. 11.—News from Canada that Marcon{ has decided to remain longer than was expected in the Dominion, with a hope of negotiating with the Canadian Government for the privilege of an At- lantic station and transcontinental con- nection, has caused a further stir in tel &raph and cable circles. His company is making all preparations to begin conclu- slve experiments as soon as possible. Pow- erful apparatus is being manufactured for crection on the other side of the Atlantic. Cuthbert Hall, manager of the Marconi Company, says that Marconi's experi- ments had proved everything desired; that it is now only a question of appa- ratus, which resolves itself into a simple question of time. Hall stated to-day that experiments had proved that, with tremendous power gene- rated by apparatus employed for trans- Atll|nnuc :emmunlcauan. there is practi- cally no danger that communication will be destroyed by outside influences. As Toof of this he sald the station at the zard, which operates with a very pow- erful current, is not at all aftected by the worklnf of one of the ordinary stations Which is located about seven miles dis- tant. With these ordinary stations they been able successfully to communi- creased power of perfected: apparatus, wireless ‘messages across _the Atlantic would be an assured fact. It was pointed out to him that in the case of the Herald's Nantucket lightship station communication was noc always as satisfactory as might be desired, and he was asked how this could be explained, in view of the fact that his company kad had no such trouble in communicating at a much greater distance. His reply was that, owing to constant change in the dis- tance between the receiving station ard the steamship sending messages, the a< iustment of the instruments was excee ngly difficult to maintain, whereas be- tween two fixed points this difficulty is cbviated. 4 —_— DALLAS, Texas, Jan. 11.—Granville P.

LONDON, Jan. 11.—The British War Office is confronted with a most serious condition of affairs. Its calls for volun- teers to relieve the regiments at the front have so far met with absolutely no re- sponse and have served to intensify the | widespread indignation existing among all the volunteer regiments. In the first place volunteers answering the call would only recetve a shilling a day, while the yeomanry, in which many volunteers have already enlisted, receive | 5 shillings a day. The only solution for the deadlock appears to be for the War Office to introduce comscription or with- draw the new regulations, These have stirred up strife to an extent which has not existed for many a year between the vernment officials and the volunteer arm of the service and, according to many high officials, will bankrupt a majority of the regiments. - According to the new rules every regi- ment must go into camp for one week each year and the Government grant will be reduced In proportion ,to the number of absentees from the company. The vol- unteer commanders say it is impossible to get more than 40 per cent of the men together the same week, so. different are the occupations of the volunteers. In ad- dition the War Office refused to recognize drills which are not attended by a per- centage of men which it has hitherto been found quite impossible to attain and | tence had the court | i imposes Dbattalion parades of suech strength that there is no drfll hall or drill ground In London large emough to enable the battdlions to maneuver, Among those who condemn the reg- ulations is Colonel Balfour; a brother of the Cabinet Minister, A. J. Balfous, who commands the London Scots. The mat- ter will be brought to the attention of Parliament and if the order of War Sec- retary Brodrick {s not amended the voi- unteer force, so the colonel of one of London’s strongest regiments sayg, will dwindle to nothing. In the méantime the ‘War Office is still waiting anxiously for an answer to the call for troops for ser- vice in South Africa. — e Convicted Men Lightly Sentenced. HELENA, .

Lee and Samuel, Garvin, who were con- victed recently In the Federal court of the larceny of 704 head of cattle belong- ing to the Crow Indians, were to-day sen- tenced to one year each in the peniten- tlary and to pay a fine of $1000 each. Both men would have been given a heavier sen- een certain under which statute they were prosecuted. Ow- ing to the failure of the United States District Attorney to make plain under what statute the men were indicted and prosecuted Judge Knowles sald he was compelled to adopt that statute which provided the lighter penalty.
