LRI L Special Dispatch to The Call, April 17.—To-morrow is Judge Groscup for the NEW YORK, the date set by to the United States Supreme Court from the decision overruling the demurrer of the defendants in the original action brought in Chicago against the beef trust. Sudden activity is evident among the allied packing interests. It is believed that 8. H.

Edward Tilden, treasurer of Libb; McNeill & Libby, has been made presi dent of this enterprise. Almost immediately after the announce- ment of the incorporation of the Nation- al Packing Company with $15,000,000 capi- tal and with the Swifts, Armours and Morris among the directors, Nelson Mor- ris hastened back to Chicago from San | Francisco. About this time came word Packing Company at Trenton, N. J., and | the filing of an amendment increasing its capital to $4,000,000. Since then license has Leen granted to the National Company by the Secretary of State of Iilinois, permit- ting the company to do business in that in Chicago.

The work- | on December 15, 1900, at 1 country dance, typhoid fever has struck the university | and Palo Alto, which has assumed con- siderable proportions. At least sixty cases have been reported to the Health of- ficials, Dr. F. H. Moss of Palo Alto, and Dr. R. L. Wilbur of the university, and although none have resulted fatally up to the present time a few of the patients are extremely ill. The majority, however, are stricken with only a light form of the fever and will probably recover in a short time. News regarding the epidemic has been kept from the public at the request of Mrs. Stanford and the university authori- ties because of a fear that a panic might oceur here similar to that recently seen at Cornell University, when such a large number of the students withdrew from college. The conditions at Stanford have not warranted a fear of serious results and the epidemic now practically checked. Emergency wards with trained nurses in attendance have been arranged in Encina Hall, in some of the fraternity houses and in Palo Alto. The whole third floor of the Phi Delta Theta house has been converted Into a hospital to accom- modate the eight fever patients among the members of the fraternity. The cause of the fever seems to be traceable to the use of milk from a par- ticular dairy in Palo Alto and the author- ftles have compelled the proprietor to cease delivering milk to his customers. In every case yet reported the patient had used this milk and no sickness has been reported among the customers of other dairymen. The university water has been examined and found pure and free from germs, so that there is no danger of the epidemic assuming the magnitude that it did at Cornell. The greater part of the students who are seriously ill have been removed to Lane Hospital in San Franclsco. Sprague, ‘04, Stanford’'s fast two-mile runner, is now at that hospital stricken with the fever.
