in America In an effort to solve the
problem of how best to cope with tu
berculosis. The occasion was the of
ficial opening of the sixth triennial
congress on tuburculosls.
The great auditorium of the new Na
tional Museum was tilted with men who
have consecrated their best talents to
the study of tuberculosis, representa
tives of the sovereigns of foreign coun
tries and high officials of Government.
When Secretary of the Treasury Cor-
telyou, as the personal representative
of the President of the United States,
officially declared the congress open.
there were grouped on the platform
such distinguished men as Dr. Robert
Koch, diecoverer of the tubercular
bacilli; Dr. A. Calmette, of Paris; Dr.
D. W. Philip, of Edinburgh, founder of
the first tuberculosis dispensary; Dr.
Simon von Unterberger. honorary phy
sician to His Majesty's court of St. Pet
ersburg, and many others. Among the
members of the diplomatic corps pres
ent was Wu Ting Fang, the Chinese
Minister.
Dr. Koch Given Ovation.
When Dr. Koch arose to respond In
behalf of the German government, there
was a remarkable demonstration in hie
honor, men and women waving hats
and handkerchiefs for nearly five min
utes.
The official welcome on behalf of the
United States Government was extend
ed by Secretary Cortelyou. He said in
part:
'We are living In a day of great moral
and material movements. It Is a time of
uplift, of widening vision, of deepening I
research of broadening co-operation. The
days when the people of a state or
nation sat idly by and left to desultory
Investigation the study of evils, which
gravely menaced the welfare of large
numbers of people are passing away, and
in their place we find concerted action.

with governmental encouragement, which
in many instances is enlarged into such
potential international enlargements

Many Make Responses.
Then followed the response of the offi
cial representatives of SO foreign countries.
u hen his name was called. Dr. Koch de
clared that the German takes a particu
lar Interest In all that tends to the solu
tion of the tuberculosis problem and that
his government would watch with the
keenest Interest the deliberations of this
congress. The tuberculosis situation In
Germany has become distinctly favorable
through the last three decades, the mor
tality from tuberculosis in Prussia hav
ing been reduced practically one-half.
"W e are active In trying not only to
maintain but enhance the dominion," said
the speaker. "For a more thorough study
of tuberculosis in ail Its aspects and In
order to find new ways and means for
effectually combating tuberculosis, the
Robert Koch Stiftung has been created.'
All nations, he added, would be benefited
by the work of that Institution.
China Is Represented.
Dr. Iee. the Chinese delegate, declared
that notwithstanding tuberculosis has t
strong hold upon his country, his govern
ment was doing little for the prevention
of the disease. He expressed the hope hl1 I FIGHT FRFF I IIMRFR

Mr. Bryan spoke a dosen times, his
principal remarks being at Mitchell,
Yankton. Vermillion and here. .His
favorite arguments today were on the
trusts, guarantee of bank deposits and
puollclty of campaign contributions be
fore election. He Inveighed against Mr.
Roosevelt because, as he said of the
President's failure to land any trust
magnates in the penltentiarr : and at
tacked Mr. Taft for dodging his plat
form. At every place visited by the Demo
cratic candidate where his train stopped
for a short time he was met by large
cheering crowds. A strong Wintry wind
from the north did not seem to affect
either the candidate or his audience.

ST. PETERSBURG. Sept. 28. Intima
tion from Vienna that Austria-Hungary
Is preparing to raise the question of an
nexation for the provinces of Bosnia and
Herzegrovnia. which together form an ap
panage of the Austro-Hungarian mon
archy, although nominally included In
the Turkish Empire, have met with ex
pressions of the strongest disapproval
of the Russian newspapers.
It Is learned from an authoritative
source that the Russian government will
object to any effort to incorporate these
two provinces In the dual monarchy or
any other infraction of the status quo
under the Berlin treaty.
For this reason Russia will oppose the
Idea of recognition of Prince Ferdinand
of Bulgaria as an Independent sovereign,
which has been revived In connection
with the late developments In the Near
East.
The Russian veto undoubtedly will put
a quietus on both projects.
The Russian Ambassador at Constan
tinople telegraphs that the Porte has re
ferred the railways dispute in Bulgaria
to the signatories of the Berlin treaty
for settlement and It la thought here that
this will greatly lessen the chances of a
collision between Turkey and Bulgaria
over this question.

L.OS ANGELES, Sept. 28. (Special.)
While her mother-in-law played gospel
hymns on the parlor organ to drown her
cries for help, Mrs. Elsie Parks, of Latin,
charges her husband tried to kill her by
pouring carbolic acid down her throat.
A warrant for his arrest, based on the
wife's extraordinary story, was issued
this evening.
According to her statements, made
through her father to the District Attor-ney,-the
attack was made after a violent
quarrel because she refused to sell her
soul to support Parks. He is said to
have actually forced a bit of the acid
Into her mouth. He had his Angers be
tween her teeth 10 wrench her jaws
apart and she bit them convulsively to
the bone, the pain making him desist.
Mrs. Mary Madden, Parks' mother, who
lives In the family, feared the neighbors
would rush in. It is alleged, and pulled
all the stops out on the organ, pumped
with all her might and made sounds like
a steam callope until the burned woman
and the bitten man were through dancing
and howling.
