DISCOVER MAY MEAN END OF TYPHOID AND CHOLERA

German Scientists Find Animal Charcoal Kills Bacteria of Diseases In Intestines. Washington, Oct. 27.—Behind the cutrain of war German science has made discoveries in medicine in the benefits of which the civilized world will share. It has been learned by practical experiments that animal charcoal, which has been used mainly to remove coloring matter from chemical solutions, will absort and remove not only poisons from the intestinal canal, but the bacteria of typhoid fever and cholera. The poisons can be neutralized within a very short time, and all poisonous substances that arise in the alimentary canal can be removed by absorption. The action of the animal charcoal extends to the bacteria themselves, which is mechanically absorbs and destroys. Clerks and baggagemen employed by the Michigan Central in Michigan, Ohio, Illinois and Indiana were called out on strike last night to enfroce a demand that officers of the road meet with a committee representing the clerks to discuss alleged grievances. John Saunders and his five children are suffering from bullet wounds, and Samuel Ellison, a coal miner, is in jail at Rockville, charged with the shooting following an argument over the boundary of adjoining lands.

STEEL PRODUCTS TRADE BOOMING

Virtually Every Blast Furnace ant Mill in U. S. Working Night and Day to Meet the Demands. New York, Oct. 28.—50 great has been the sudden and general revival in the iron and steel trade of the United States, it was said by authorities today, that with virtually every blast furnace and steel mill in the country working night and day to capacity, fche demand for iron, steel and steel prdoucts cannot be satisfied and it is today almost impossible to buy, for immediate delivery

pig iron, scrap or ingots in sizable quantities at any industrial plant in the country. The revival began about the first of last July, has been coming on rapidly, with a deluge of orders since the middle of August, and may not yet have reached its high mark. Within these three months the price of pig t iron, long regarded as the barometer of trade, has increased approzimately 35 per cent and that of steel and steel products—except steel rails —has gone up about 15 per cent. At the present the demand for pig iron and for the various lines of steel is in excess of the producing capacity of the furnaces and mills of the United states, reads a statement issued today by Judge Elbert H. Gary, chairman of the United States Steel Corporation. “The manufacturers are unable to make deliveries entirely' satisfactory to the purchasers with respect to a large majority of the different kinds of finished steel. There is nothing to indicate that there will be a decrease in the demand for any of these products for some time. While prices received are still low, they have been and are increasing, and apparently will go higher, so that fair and reasonable profits may be expected?’

Erperts who have followed the rising fortunes of iron and steel within the months asserted today that the volume of business, both domestic and foreign, at present, is more than double what it was a year ago and that there are today 175,000 men employed at iron and steel plants throughout the United States who were not on the pay rolls a year ago. This is about 50 per cent increase. The reason for the increased number of men empolyed being disproportionate to the volume of business, they assert, is that during dull times many men were retained for the purpose of making repairs, cleaning up and doing odd jobs. Prices have increased somewhat slowly, it is said, but there seems to be every indication that further rises are on the way. At the present time, it is estimated there are employed in the producing end of the industry approximately 525,000 men.

Crown Point Diamond Thief Being Pursued in New York.

He escaped by slipping the manacles from his hands and leaping from the train while it was in motion at Lafayette. A reward has been offered for his capture.

M’ADOO SCORES ALL POLITICIANS

Declares Predictions of Prosperity by Both Parties Are All Bunk In Game to Get Into Office. Helena, Mont., Oct. 28.—Efforts of the administration at Washington to prevent certain fundamental questions, such as tariff from being battledore and shuttlecock of party politics, were discussed here today by Secretary of the Treasury William G. McAdoo, at a breakfast tendered him by state officials and citizens of Montana. “We are trying,” said Mr. McAdoo, «■ “to take certain fundamental questions out of politics so that they may not be party questions in the future as they have been in the past. Among tjiem is the tariff. “Politicianshave gone up and down the country,” he continued, “telling us that their particular party could bring prosperity. First it was the republicans, then the democrats. The politicians have been playing this game of see-saw to get offices, but their predictions and promises are all t>unk. We have not had any real prosperity in the United tates for years because our business outgrew the clumsy financial system which we have been talking about correcting for thirty years, but which we did not get to until President Wilson insisted on congress taking it up as soon as the tariff bill was out of the way.”

RUSSIAN AGENTS SEEKING MONEY

Desire to Establish Credit Loan In This Country of From Fifty to a Hundred Millions. New York, Oct. 28.—Agents of the Russian government, it was reliably reported here today, are seeking to establish a credit loan in this country, somewhat similar to the recent AngloFrench credit loan—although no bond issue is contmplated—of from $50,000,000 to $100,000,000 and more, if it can be obtained. Details of the proposed loan were lacking but in one quarter it was reported that the Russian government was willing to pay as high as 9 per cent interest for a loan of this size. This report added that the loan probably would be for eighteen months and would be in the neighborhood of $60,000,000. It is said that negotiations looking to the establishment of the loan have been under way for some little time and that a definite announcement might be forthcoming soon. This, however, could not be confirmed. The sum said to be sought by Russia would be spent entirely in this country in the payment of supplies shipped to Russia by American exporters. The volume of supplies leaving here for Russian ports is reported to be enormous. Imports are at their lowest ebb in years and consequent disturbance of the foreign exchange market has reduced the value of Russian rubles in this country to a recent low record of almost 40 per cent of depreciation.

BORDER PATROLS ARE REINFORCED

Additional Troops Arrive Today at Douglas, Ariz., to Guard Against Impending Villa Attack. " Washington, Oct. 28.—Major-Gen-eral Funston reported to the war der partment today that with the arrival at Douglas, Ariz., tomorrow morning of additional troops now enroute, he would be prepared to guard American territory against violation in the impending attack by Villa forces upon Agua Prieta, the Mexican town just across the border. Two batteries of field t €o regiments of infantry and a troop of cavalry make up the reinforcements for the border patrol at Douglas. Instructions to General Funston are positive not to permit the Villa soldiers to cross into American territory for the purpose of attempting a flank movement on the defenses' of Agua Prieta. Artillery will be used if necessary to repel such a movement. General Calles, commanding the Carranza garrison, has built a semicircle of trenches about the town fronting southward, preparing to make his fight with his back against the international border. Several thousand additional men sent to him by General Carranza will cross United States territory from Piedras Negras and Laredo by train and under guard of American troops. They will travel without arms, their weapons being collected at the border and sealed in baggage cars attached to the train until it recrosses the line.

Ruling Will Modify Chicago Closing Law.

Chicago, Oct. 28.—Strict enforcement of the Sunday saloon closing law in Chicago was reinforced today by an opinion formally field by the corporation counsel with the council licenses committee holding that saloonkeepers may not keep their places open on Sunday for the purpose of selling cigars and soft drinks. Another ruling of the corporation council was hailed as lifting of the ban against Sunday liquor. Under this ruling parties or secret societies are permitted to serve liquor in halls adjoining saloons; provided the bars were screened off, the liquor brought before Sunday and the general public excluded. Guests in hotels, the opinion read, could served with liquor on Sunday provided the hotel bar was closed and the liquor bought beforehand.
