u THE MORNING OREGONIAN, SATURDAY,. OCTOBER 7 1905.. TRUST AT ST. LOUIS Government .Will Break Mo nopoly of Bridge. ATTORNEY-GENERAL TO SUE Cablnctpeclflcs oh Action "Will Not Change Orders to Consuls Un der. Chinese Law More Inspection of Meat. WASHINGTON, Oct- 6. Several impor tant questions "were discussed at today's Cabinet meeting, although at the conclu sion of the session It was announced of ficially that no details of the discussion would be made public. In fact, It was announced that hereafter no Information would be given out by Cabinet officers of their semi-weekly meetings with the President, but that such Information as It was deemed proper for the public to have would be given to the newspaper men by Secretary Loeb. The monopoly enjoyed by the Merchants' Bridge Company, of St. Louis, of bridge .and ferry routes across the Mississippi Hlver, was considered at length. The Attorney-General made the following statement of the action taken: Suit to Break Monopoly. "It was determined by the President that upon the complaint pending in the Denarment of Justice against the monop olisation of the two bridges and the ferry across the Mississippi River Into St. Louis appropriate action should be begun by the Attorney-General. TliP determination of the Attorney General to bring suit Is the result of Secretary Taft'a Investigation. It Is said the suit will be based 6n an alleged violation of the' anti-trust laws of the fnlled States. The Congressional charter for the brldces provides for their forfeiture In case of a monopoly. Mr. Taft found that the violation of the law had not been sufficient to work a forfeiture, but suggested procedure by bringing a mandamus suit against iiimsilf ns Secretary 01 war in case nnv fjcrson felt aggrieved at his re fusal to declare a forfeiture or a -suit under the anti-trust law. It is expect ed that Mr. Moody will proceed under the Sherman act. No Change In Chinese Rules. Considerable attention was devoted by the meetlnir to the consideration of ques Hons arising from complaints of the Chi nese government that Its subjects were tmltistlv discriminated against by the fnited States at the ports of this country. Secretaries Hoot, Taft and Metcalf hav ing given much time to this -question with the President, they participated in the discussion. Jt was determined that 4no changes or modifications in conflict "with Instructions to United States consuls, con tained in the circular Issued several months ago by the President's direction will bo made. Extend Inspection of Meat. Secretary Wilson brought to the atten tlon of the President and Cabinet a deter mination he had reached regarding the In spectlon of meats. He indicated that un der the law meat packers could npt be forced to nay the cosx of meat inspection He had decided, however, that hereafter the packers should pay for the seals' or tags placed upon Inspected meats intend ed for export This will bring a revenue to the Department of Agriculture of near ly $50,000 a year. This sum the Secretary nrnnnnes to exnend In extending the in spection of meats to packinghouses which have requested that . they b$ given in snectors. but -whose requests have not been complied with because the depart ment had not the funds with which to pay the Inspectors. The idea was ap proved, and it will be put into operation at once. FACTS ABOUT ARMY'S HEALTH Sureeon-Gcneral O'Reilly Rccom mends Changes in Sy6tem. WASHINGTON, Oct. 6. Surgeon General R. M. O'Reilly, of the Army has submitted an exhaustive report on the "health conditions of the Army to Secretary Taft. The report says that the enlisted strenirth, of the Army, as shown upon the monthly sick reports was 58,740. and on the returns of the Military Secretary 60.139, and calcula tlons are made upon the latter figures There were 79.586 "admissions to the sick report during the year, 406 deaths from all causes and 137.7 discharges tor disability." The .figures, he says, show a steady and nrojrresslve Improvement In the health of the Army. The report say that by far the most important die eases affecting the efficiency of th.e Army during the year have been those resulting- from immoral habits, which caused 16 per cent of all admissions This class of diseases advanced from third to first place in number of ad missions to the sick report. There were constantly on the sick report for thlt class of diseases 715 men, equal 1 to the loss for the entire year of the services of 11 full companies of hi- j fantry. . ! The control of this disease lies largely In the hands -of the civil authorities, and one of the most important steps to that end would appear to be classing them with other infectious diseases and the requirements that they shall be reported as such and con trolled by health .departments. In the military service a similar course should bp followed. As -to the causes of death, -pneumonia 'advances ,to first place, and tuberculosis Is second. There were 200 admission for gunshot wounds, with 4i deaths, and 2SJ5Q admissions for wounds other than gunshot, with 15 deaths. Twenty-one men were killed in action and 42 wounded. Of the 'killed, two were by gunshot. There were 45 .soldiers drowned. 15 per cent of the total deaths from all causes. Indicating how Important It Is that all soldiers should have systematic instruction In wlmmlng. Twenty-seven sol diers committed suicide, 11 deaths were due to homicide. Notwithstanding that a large part oj the Army was serving In the tropics, there was no admission for snake bite. . The strength . of officers was S421 from the medical "department reports and 3S15 from the Mllltary - Secretary. There were 2206 admissions, 27 deaths. Comparisons with foreign armies shows that the highest rate ot admis sions is In the American army and the lowest in the Russian. The highest death rate was in the American army and the lowest in the Prussian. The "highest non-effective rate was in the American army and the lowest in the Prussian. Regarding these facts. General .O'Reilly ay's: , The very hfgh proportion for alcoholism In the American Army as compared with that of the British army Is clearly due to the fact that In the latter, -service only 'admis sions to the hospitals are counted. -It Is notable that while the "Brltlsh'have less than half the American admission for dysentery, their death rate is practically the same and that, while their ratio of admission for malaria Is about Che same, their death rate is nearly three times as 'great. The Amer ican admission rate for malaria In nearly 50 times that of the French, while the death rate Is only five times as great. These facts point to difference Iri the method of comput ing admissions. The figure's for measles and mumps - compare unfavorably with other armies except the .French. The high American death rate for tuber culosis Is explained by the fact that in the United Elates Army, tuberculosis patients are rent to a sanitarium ana reiainea ui service for long periods.' while In other ar mies they are promptly piscnargea, in high admission rate Is no doubt due to the present defective system of medical exam ination of recruits. The undue prevalence of typhoid fever la the Armv Is tartly explainable br its undue prevalence In the civil community, where the troopj are stationed, as a result ot genprai failure to purify water and sewers in Amer ican municipalities. Jtotahie is tne ADsence of the smallpox in the Prussian. Bavarian and Dutch armies, More care In vaccina tion would give like results In the services. The strength of the army in the Philippines was 11,996 and there were 2.24'i,admlsslons to the sick report and 105 deaths. The strength of the 'Fili pino troops was 4,610 and there -were 5,242 admissions and 103 deaths. TAFT VILI KEEP CANAIi WORK Cabinet Decides Against Tfansfer. Taft Will Visit Isthmus. WASHINGTON.

Schnebly. discount and ex change clerk at the Peoria National Bank, the man who first discovered irregulari ties In Mr. Dougherty's methods of hand ling school funds, made a statement to day. He said: I took charge of the Individual booKa at the bank seven years ago, and shortly thereafter I began to Tiotlce the queer methods Mr. Dougherty had of handling the funds of the Peoria School Board. He would make checks payable to various local firms and give his personal check for a smaller amount. I called the atten tion of the bank officials to this state ot affairs, and was Infornied that It was none of my business. I was then trans ferred to the discount and exchange de partment. Mr. Dougherty's dealings were carried on as follows: "He would bring In checks for large amounts, payable In most instances to a school furniture firm In Chicago or a plumbing firm In St- Louis. With these checks he would purchase New York. Chi cago or St. Louis exchange, made payaoie to his own order. Tipon examination of the indorsements on the drafts I found that In many instances they had been used In his private business affairs. In some cases he would Indorse the names of the local firms on the draft, without their knowledge, putting his own Initials under the vsignature. I laid the matter before Mr. Cook, the National Bank Ex aminer for this district. Upon his advice. I laid the matter before the Attorney General at Springfield. He advised me to take it to the 8tate's Attorney of Peoria County, which I did. I also laid the mat ter before S. C. Spring, cashier of the bank. Transactions of that kind then ceased. In, explaining them to me Mr. Dougherty said, that he kept three sets of funds in Ttfew York,. Chicago and St. Louis. "When I was called before the grand Jury there were exhibited many changed Checks. In one Instance a check which was charged to the school funds had been raised from X2i to $250. The blub showed $24. Another was drawn for $1750. The stub had originally read $27, had been raised to $2750. The last two figures on the stub were in green ink, the first two In black. I was discharged from the bank only last Saturday." BANK DRAGGED DOWX BY HIM Peoria. National .Suffers a Hun Through Dougherty's Frauds. PEORIA, 111.. Oct 6.

PEACE IN CENTRAL ASIA Treaty May End Old Enmity Be tween Nations British Press Proposes Other Powers . Indorse Treaty. LONDON, Oct. 6. Following closely upon the publication of the test of the Anglo-Japanese treaty has come consid erable talk of the possibility of an un derstanding between Great Britain and Russia. All the newspapers are devoting columns to the discussion of the question, pointing out that if Russia Is sincere In her expression of a desire for peace In Central Asia, there Is no reason why the two ancient enemies should not come to an agreement that will not only assure peace, but clear away the suspicions which have existed for years. That nego tiations with this object are pending seems probable, though definite official confirmation is lacking. Color Is lent to the rumors that have been afloat by tho recent frequent visits paid to "the Foreign Office by the Russian Ambassador and the fact that Foreign Secretary Lansdowne, who returned from his vacation to publish the" text of the Anglo-Japanese treaty, has remained at his office continuously since. Count Benk- endorff. the Russian Ambassador, had long Interview with Lord Lansdowne at the Foreign Office yesterday and the lat ter left London immediately afterwards for Balmoral. Scotland, where Premier Balfour Is present as Minister In attend ance on Klnr Edward The visits of the Russian Ambassador to the Foreign Of fice may have been connected with Em peror Nicholas' Invitation to Great Brit ain to participate In the second peace con ference at The Hague, but Great Britain had already answered His Majesty's pre liminary invitations. The position of the British government was clearly stated in a speech delivered fey Gerald Balfour, president of tne 10 cal Government Board, yesterday. In which he said: Great Britain hu no Intention of making axrressive movements In Central Asia. Our object Is defense and not defiance, and if the Russian government desires to come to an understanding wKh us with reference to our Interests In that part of the worm, u win not find the British government backward In readiness to consider any proposals which It might desire to put forward. The newspaper discussion has reached a much wider range, and Includes sugges tions for agreements which, if carried out and lived up to. would mako Europe family In which there would be no diffi culties. One of the suggestions which most appeal to British officialdom and the London press Is that Russia, Germany and France should subscribe to the terms of the Anglo-Japanese treaty.
