French Authority Says Ani- mals Do Transmit the Disease. BERLIN, Oct. 25.—The sensation of to- | day’s session of the International Tuber- culosis Congress came toward the end of the gitting In the form of a paper by Professor Koch, in which he maintained all his former positions regarding the non-transferability of animal tuberculosis to man, Koch began by stating that he spoke at the desire of the central committee. He wished it to be understood, he said, that his statements referred exclusively | to the tranmission of bovine tuberculosis | to human beings. He asserted that sta- tistics on the subject of intestinal tu- berculosis were too incomplete to estab- lish the frequency of that disease. Some authorities claim, said the professor, that intestinal tuberculosis is very common in the United States and England, while other authorities hold contrary views. Cases of the disease are not frequent in Germany. An inquiry instituted by the Government has proved the rarity of such cases. | Taking up the alleged proofs that hu- | man beings may be infected with bovine | | | tuberculosis through skin lesions, Koch admitted that cases of tuberculosis do | { occur among butchers and other persons | who handle animals, but he asserted that the percentage of sufferers from the dis- | ease among joiners is equally as high as among handlers of animals and meat. “If,” said the professor, “infection is so | frequent through miilk, positive proof of | this ought to be obtainable. When poison is eaten in a community widespread ef- | fects follow. How is it that no general infection follows the eating of tubercu- losis meat or the drinking of milk from a tuberculosis cow?” He did not affirm, he said, that the transmission of tuberculosis from animal | | to man was impossible, but that cases of | {the kind were extremely rare, if they | | did occur. He had collected twenty-eight cases of apparent transmission of tuber- cular bacilli—a very small number—and in none of these could the source of in- |fection be stated positively, the data be- ing incomplete. “If measures are taken to combat ani- { mal tuberculosis,” went on Koch, “they | must be on economic, not sanitary | grounds. In order to combat the disease we must find the root of the evil, estab- lish better dwellings and workships, avold overcrowding, and 1solate persons who are affected with tubercular bacilli. This is the only way to meet the enemy. Experience with other infections proves that tuberculosis can be successfully com- bated.” Prolonged cheers followed the reading | of Koch’s paper, which will be printed in | pamphlet form in a few weeks. Nocard, a well-known French veteri- | nary authority, spoke in opposition to | Koch’s views. He said the statements | made by the Professor led to two conclu- sions—that transmission of tuberculosis does not occur, and that precautions are unnecessary. The speaket sajd a number of experi- ments made since Professor Koch’s Lon- don address proved that animals rarely take tuberculosis fromman, but that no doubt it can be contracted. The different | degrees of virulence, he said, depended upon environment. The bovine baeillus, Nocard asserted, was more virulent than the human bacillus. All tuberculous ani- mal products could infect through alimgn- tation. Nocard concluded by arguing that bo- vine tuberculogis is transferrable to man, | and especially through milk from a tu- berculosis victim, and that a lacteal diet for children is particularly dangerous. He recommended a rigid inspection of cow stables and thegboiling of all milk. The address was lofidly applauded. [ 0’Donnell Denounces Balfour. | LONDON, Oct. %.—John O'Donnell, M. P., in a speech at Colne, Lancashire, to- | night denounced the sentences of hifnself and other members of Parliament under onditions which prohibit their serving in ublic bodies in Ireland for five years as a scheme to prevent constitutional agita- tion. O’'Donnell said he did not regret | the clash with Balfour in the House of Commons, October 16, on account of which he was suspended from the House, and declared He would be a slave and coward if he did not resent being Geprivod of the right to speak in the House of Commons after being prevented from speaking in his own constituency and im- prisoned for speaking in others. solomor_a L.

W.*McCormick arrested near Bonita ; to-day a man who is thought to be.the bandit whe held up the North Coast limited passenger train and who murdered Bngineer Daniel O'Neill near Bear Mouth yesterday morning. The man, who in size and general de- scription answers that of the hold-up, gives the name of Alfred.Van Hazendoct and at times tries to talk with a German accent and again uses plain English. He is of medium stature, heavy of shoul- ders, slightly inclined to/ stoop, and wore when arrested a gray suit of clothes and a peculiar little cap of blue color and had two 45-caliber revolvers strapped to his person. The story of the capture as told by Deputy Sheriff McCormick is as follows: “I received word shortly after noon that 4 man answering the description of the man seen at Gold Creek the evening pre- vious to the robbery, and who has all along been thought to be the robber, was in the neighborhood of Bonita. I left Mis- soula on passenger train No. 4 at 3:40 p. m., and arriving at Clinton, got off, and being informed by the operator that a stranger ridding in a red buggy had passed through Bonita heade dfor Clinton. I started up the road afoot and finding a good place, concealed myself in the brush at the side of the road and awaited his coming. As he got near to me, I covered him with my gun and ordered him to throw up his hands. He complied in- stantly and I made him hold them up while he climbed out of the buggy and came to-me. Then I relieved him of the two revolvers. When I first covered/him and told him to throw up his hands, he said: ‘I was in Drummond when the train arrived there after the robbery.’ I asked him how he knew I wanted him for robbery, but he refused to reply.” A light engine which had been ordered by the operator to follow along after the stranger arrived soon after McCormick had placed his man under arrest, taking the officer and his prisoner aboard, ran to this city, arriving here at 5 o’clock, and the suspect was placed in the County Jail. “He acknowledges he was at Gold Creek the night previous to the hold-up and says he is a tlemaker looking for em- ployment and that he was en route to Missoula when ‘he passed through Gold Creek, and explains his slowness in get- ting over the ground and his. not being seen all day yesterday along the road from Gold Creek to Missoula by relating that he missed his road shortly after leav- ing Gold Creek and wound up at Garnet and had to retrace his steps. The officers discredit the man's story. / GOSSIP FROM LONDON WORLD OF LETTERS et SR Now is the busiest time for publishers in’ the year. Books are being issued at the rate of about twenty a day. I asked a publisher how many of these are likely to bring profit, but the reply was merely a smile, in which there was a tinge of sadness. Autumn is usually the time in London when new periodicals are an- nounced. While last year at this time scme half-dozen were brought into the world, those announced for the present scason are very few. In literary circles you will constantly hear the remark, “There’s plenty of room for more period- icals,” but the difficulty is for editors with what are considered new ideas to get capital to make the required good start, competition being now so great, especially among the illustrated weeklies. About four times as much money is re- quired nowadays than was the case but a few years ago, and it is difficult to get capitalists to take kindly to a venture which can bring them any return only after a few years, and very often the re- verse, as unfortunately has been the case with not a few of the latest ventures in the journalistic field. Nevertheless there are high hopes for the World's Work, the new magazine which Heinemann will publish, with Henry Norman, M. P, as editor. Then that untiring worker and most prolific writer T. P. O’Connor is to start shortly a literary paper, with Alfred ‘Whitten, late of the Academy, as his coadjutor. There is still dnother maga- ziné about which some curiosity is begin- ning to be expressed and which Messrs. Isbister are to publish under the title of the Victoria Cross, to come out weekly. Do volumes of short stories sell as well as long novels? It is rather curious to note how exceedingly warm has become the controversy over this subject from certain correspondence which has ap- peared in different papers. The advocates of the short story have not by any means had the worst of the argument, but after all it is the publishers who are the most competent to settle the question. In- quiries among them show that there are but a few writers of short stories whose volumes meet with adequate success. They are Rudyard Kipling, W. W. Ja- cobs, Dr. Conan Doyle and Cutliffe Hyne, but even their collections of short stories bring them only about 70 per cent com- pared with their long novels. Editors of magazines hunger for good short stories, but though they are ready to pay well for them they find them excqfln:ly difficult o get. If everybody was interested in his pedi- gree then a book which Elliott Stock is to publish before the end of the year ought to command a sale as large as the ‘most popular novel. It is to be a history of the Smith family. It quite appalls one even‘in trying to imagine the industry of the man who set out with the view of compiling such a work when one contem- plates the millions of Smiths, Smyths, Smithes and Smythes to whom the Brit- ish race has given birth. The book is to furnish a popular account of the various branches of the family, however the name may be spelled, from the fourteenth cen- tury downward. It is to contain many important pedigrees printed for the first time and biographies of some of the celé- brated persons who have borne the name. Grant Richards says that Lord Kitch- ener after being shown proofs of the vol- ume of Wellington dispatches selected and arranged with notes by Walter Wood Intimated that he would be proud * to accept the dedication of the work. The volume is to be the epitome of Welling- ton’s military career, beginning in India and ending with Waterloo. —_———— CHICAGO, Oct. 25.—Lockwood Honore was to-day nominated by the Democratic Executive County Committes for Congress in the Ninth District to take the place of James G.
