Motion to Amnl Expression Up holding Inoculation Voted Down. Ir. C. S. White Resent Attack on Boards. A stormy hour of yesterday after noon's session of the State Homeo pathic Medical Society in the auditor ium of the Commercial Club. w de voted to the discussion of vaccination. Resolutions were adopted by practical ly an unanimous vote, expressing; the belief of the members present In Ita efficacy as one of the demonstrated truths of medical science, and repudiat ing any sympathy with the antl-vac-rinatlon movement. The 33th annual meeting of the society closed last niarht. after a two days" session. The discussion was called forth by the. statements of several of the mem bers, at Wednesday's session, in which they attacked compulsory vaccination, and In which one member. Pr. P. L. Mc JCenzle. made statements derogatory to health boards In a-eneral. Dr. McKen xle and Dr. Frank F. Cassedy were the practitioners who assailed vacci nation Wednesday. Dr. Cassedy was not present yesterday afternoon In the discussion, but Dr. A. W. Vincent added his voire atalnsl vaccination. He and IT. McKensie. were the only two who opposed the resolution yesterday. The dlssentinc doctors announced that they would make a minority report. Chaaae Voted Dowa. The resolution was Introduced by Dr. J. F. Worcester, treasurer of the society, following a discussion on "ITeventlon of Disease." by Dr. Vin cent, one of the two opposing; doctors. It was seconded by Dr. H. C. Jrfferds. All the practitioners present but two spoke in favor of the resolution In the discussion which followed. Dr. Mc Kenxie offered an amendment referring; the resolution to a committee of Ave. It was voted down. "We feel." said Dr. John F. Beau mont, newly-elected president of the society, "that prompt and decisive action should be tsken on this ques tion, unless we wish to place ourselves in the position of being opposed to everything- progressive In medical science. There Is small difference In the methods of homeopathic doctors and regular school doctors. They work on the same principles and reap the ad vantages of scientific Investigations in common, differing only somewhat In methods of treatment. We as well as they stand for everything progressive la medicine and are In entire accord with health boards. To be on record in the public mind as standing for any thing else Is something that we could not afford." Health Officer A rouse 4. The reference to health officials in the resolution was provoked by a statement of Dr. McKenxle Wednesday, that be would not believe a health board under oath. Dr. McKenale said yesterday, that he should have been quoted as saying that he would not be lieve a health board "except under oath." Dr. Calvin 8. White, state health officer, took occasion to "rap" Dr. Me Kenzle yesterday. "Whether Dr. McKenxle said what was at first attributed to him or made the statement as corrected the Implica tion Is the same." said Dr. White. "The word of every board of health Is ac cepted by the Federal bureaus, and by everyone who takes any Interest In medicine, or gathers mortality statis tics. "By actual experience In this state vaccination has proved Its efficacy be ' yond a doubt. In 1903. In Crook Coun ty, out of a total of 29 cases of small pox, nine died, and out of the 29. 17 who had been vaccinated at some period In life recovered, while the deaths occurred only among the 13, who bad never been vaccinated. In the more recent outbreak at Silverton, last .Winter, of five unvacclnated cases, four died, while of the four vaccinated cases, not one died, although one, the mother was vaccinated 55 years before, and another, the nurse, only the day before he was exposed.

Dr. David Bruer read a paper on fractures of the lower end of the leg. and Dr. John P. Beaumont. Dr. E. C Brown and Dr. Frank Cassedy dwelt on subjects pertaining to the ear. eye, nose and throat at yesterday morning's session. Among the papers read In the afternoon, was one on "Arsenicum." by Dr. 8.

TO ACT FIRE CHIEF WIlIi BE NAMED ABOUT NOVEMBER 1. Friends of Three Eligible Candidates Us Influence In Behalf of Men Seeking Office. "Inasmuch as I am compelled to ap point a new Chief for the Fire De partment, I will make the appoint ment about November 1," said Mayor Rushlight yesterday when asked about his plans for filling the position made vacant by the death of David Campbell. "I believe." said the Mayor, "that Mr. Laudenklos. who is now Acting Chief. Is thoroughly capable of holding the position and for that reason I am in no hurry about making a new appoint ment." The question of who of the tnree possible candidates will secure the ap pointment Is paramount in the fire sta tions and the Mayor Is being visited dally by the various friends of each of the three men. The Mayor says that If he had his choice he would make no appointment, allowing the department to "tand as It Is with Acting Chief Laudenklos in command. Inasmuch as Laudenklos did not take the examination for tha position he is not eligible. The ellglbles are John E. Young, B. T. Dowell and J. W. Stevena. - If Laudenklos had taken the exami nation it Is said he would have been appointed almost Immediately, but he refused to take the test because of the care and worry attached to the posi tion. In explaining his reason for re fusing the examination he said he was satisfied where he Is as Assistant Chief, UNION MAY GET PLACE Mayor Likely to Name Berthtl An derson Electrical Inspector.

"A policeman, no matter whether be Is a regular officer or a special, la a policeman for the entire city. Is ex rected to keep his eyes open and see a crime when one is being committed and to take action," declared Police Commissioner Seton at yesterday after noon's session of the police committee. "Just because an officer Is not on duty when a crime Is being committed, or Just because he Is a special policeman. Is no reason why he should shut his eyes to crime and allow it to go on unhindered and the criminal to escape unpunished." Commissioner Coffey thought police men should do aa they are told, that their dutiea while on their beata would keep them busy, and that It wasn't for them while off duty to go to other parts of the city to hunt up crime which regular policemen failed to dis cover. Busy Officer Questioned. The question arose yesterday when the report of F. E. Wanless, police aer geanj. was read, to the effect that Spe cial Officer Snyder, detailed to watch the Southern Taclflc carshops. passed a part of his. time, according to rumor, asleep. The report also said that Sny der stopped a lumber wagon aa It was about to enter the yard and demanded that a pass be produced. Then came the statement that he apent some of his time when he waa off duty In investigating supposed crimes, and a few nights ago tele phoned to police headquarters from the South End that he desired an of ficer to be sent, aa a crime was being committed. '"The aergeant called hlra Into the station and asked him what he was doing In South Portland at that time of night, when he was on a day de tail." satd Commissioner Coffey. He ex- palned to him further that it was his duty to attend to his own worK wniie he was on duty, not to make investiga. tlona that did not concern htm, con tinued Mr. Coffey. Dutiea Are Set Forth. "It seems to me that is a good deal like the case of Officer Price," broke in Commissioner Seton. "He went out In the North End Investigating the character of a negro hotel there, and waa reDrlmanded by the Chief. He was told it was his duty to catch thieves, not to raid North End hotels," Then came Mr. Seton's statement on the duties of Dollcemen. Policeman Joseph H. Black is to be tried at the City Hall at 6 o'clock next Friday afternoon. Formal charges against him were preferred by V. Vln cent Jones. Harley Davis asked to be reinstated. as he said hla discharge cast a reflec tlon upon hla reputation. Commls aloner Coffey waa in favor of the rein statement, as was Commissioner Flts gerald. but Commissioner Seton said ha believed in making decisions and standing by them. The question was held over until the next meeting to give Davis attorney. Lee Couch, an op portunlty -to appear. Reinstatement will require the recommendation of the Chief. police committee. Executive Board and Civil Service Commission. Salary Opinion Heard. The request of the Northern Pacific Terminal Company for ten extra po licemen, the company to pay tneir sal arlea and furnish their bonds, waa filed without other action. As to salaries, an opinion was read from Citv Attorney Grant that the city muat pay salaries for the time officers are suspended If they are later exon erated or reinstated, but not If they are discharged. Aetlna- Chief of Police Slover waa Instructed to write to the Civil Service Commission, asking that the name of George w Russell be stricken from the eligi ble list of Dollcemen. Russell was ais charged more than a year ago, and lately took the examination and naased. Acting Chief Slover waa in structed to state the reasons for his former discharge. The committee declared Itself not in favor of Darin? the rent of tna ciud- rooms for oolicemen in the Union block at Second and Stark streets. If policemen are required to belong to the "club" In order to secure lockers there, or the advantage or tne rooms. Commissioner Coffey favored a com mittee apart from the Civil Service Commission to examine applicants un der the civil servloe rules, and to mako Investigations aa to their characters. He declared It a very easy matter for applicants to put tn untruthful vouch ers. He said be would request the charter commission to take thla neea Into consideration In drafting; the new charter.

Hearing of charges alleging undue Influence made by John Donovan to break the will of his wife, who died several months ago leaving all her property to a daughter, Theresa Don onvan. will be commenced before Judge Cleeton In the County Court Friday. The property in controversy consists mainly of a lot 60x100 at the northwest corner of Third and Taylor atreeta, and Is worth about $75,000. Donovan declares that the property was originally purchased with his money but was deeded to his wife in 1SS2 when domestic difficulties arose, the agreement being that he was to receive $75 a month from the revenue and all In excess of $40,000 should the property be sold. It waa further agreed, Donovan asserts, that the children were to share alike In the distribution. The plaintiff asserts that Theresa Donovan, to whom the property was deeded in trust many years ago, in fluenced her mother to make her the sole beneficiary. The will provides that she is to provide for a brother. The father now asks that $10,000 which haa not been paid on the $75 a month agreement, be given him. that the will be set aside ana me property soiu. na to receive all It bringa in excess of $40,000 and the balance to be divided pro rata among the children.

G.Wells The same Wells who used to write that Jules Verne kind of stories who dropped them for something better who then wrote "Tono Bungay" and "Mr. Polly" who is today the greatest novelist writing in English, has written a long story for The American. It is called "Marriage," because it begins where most novels leave off. It will interest you, because it deals with the most common problem of married life, too much spending on too little cash. It is in solving the problem that Wells reveals the imagination that produced "The War of the Worlds," but it is in drawing the character of Marjorie that he. shows his greatness as a writer.
