CHICAGO. July 1. (Special.)
Twenty-eight additional deaths today
from excessive heat, as reported by the
Coroner, brings the total for Chicago
for the last three days to 111. There
were more than 600 prostrations, and
of these victims many will not survive.
A majority of those who died today
were stricken yesterday and last night
ana taken to hospitals.
Elghty-flve babies have died In this
city In the last three days of the heat
and 78 deaths are reported from various
points In the Central West. Health of
ficials here say the infant mortality is
not surprising.
In a stilling tenement district where
the residents violate all sanitary and
other regulations, the babies have no
chance to live, and if they survive it is
against terrible odds.
Horses Drop to Pavement.
The death toll among animals, par
ticularly horses, was very heavy today.
Tn one spot near the Union Station 20
horses fell exhausted Inside of two
hours. Seven of them were shot to end
their misery.
Fourteen persons were bitten by
rabid dogs during the day. The victims
were all rushed to the Pasteur Insti
tute, which is already overflowing with
rases brought in during the heat siege.
One of the victims today was William
H. Lee, a member of the firm of Laird
& Lee, the book publishers. He was
stricken by the heat yesterday and ex
pired early today.
Rains early this morning and clouds
most of the day brought great relief
to the city. Slight lake breezes, that
freshened towards evening, revived the
wilted population. The Government
forecasters said the heat wave had
abated over all the West, and predicted
additional rains tonight.
R.aln Wets Those on Roofs.
Early morning showers caught hun
dreds of thousands of persons sleeping
on roofs. In the streets and parks, but
they refused to seek shelter.
In St. Louis and vicinity the rain
assumed the nature of a cloudburst,
flooding the streets and stopping street
cars. The temperature In that city
dropped 14 degrees In an hour.
The rains were general over Mis
souri. There was a heavy downfall at
rittsburg, in the vicinity of Mobile.

Heat Fatal In Ohio.'
Three deaths and 20 prostrations
from heat were reported at Cincin
nati. The number of prostrations, six
of which are serious, broke the record
for the heated term.
The high temperature for the day
was 96 at the Government bureau, and
163 at the street level. Relief caraa at
4 o'clock, when a northeast . wind
brought thunder showers.

due to the intense heat, were recorded
at Columbus. The Government ther
mometer registered 97 degrees, while

grees. Thunder showers brought relief
tonight.
Four persons died from the effects of
the heat and another was overcome at

the result of prostrations. A thsnder
storm late this afternoon caused a
drop In temperature from 100 to S6
degrees.
. The heat wave was felt especially on
the Atlantic Coast tonight. Six deaths
and 20 prostrations are reported from
Pittsburg, three deaths and 60 pros
trations from New York City, three
dead at Philadelphia, three dead and
31 prostrated at Boston and four deaths

meal In camp and one look at the
crowded tents and then started back
home as quickly as they could go. The
real exodus, however, will not begin
until Thursday or Friday.
. Before the morning exercises the re
unions of regiments and companies and
squadrons began. Confederates who
were in Picketfs charge took keen de
light In marching with fife and drum
to Spangler's Woods, where the columns
of Pickett formed on July 3, "63, to
begin the charge that marked the high
tide of the lost cause. On the edge of
the Union side of the camp the veterans
of Meredith's iron brigade, and of Pet
tigrew's brigade of North Carolina, got
together to go over the story of the
fight on the first of July. The struggle
between, the regiments of .these two
brigades was the most disastrous in
number of those killed in the entire
three days' fighting.
Old Men Taken HI.
About 30 veterans were taken ill In
the big tent during the exercises, but
most of them were able to set up and
walk away. Out and out cases of heat
prostration were unusual.
It was evident tonight that many of
the old soldiers would have been better
:IT if they had not undertaken the trip
bere. Two veterans have been found In
camp apparently without friends. The
two are totally blind, and they are
quartered in hospital tents. The aver
age age Is about 70, the doctors be-
lieve, and there are hundreds of men
who are over 80.
Tonight there was good prospect for
a rain storm, and If it comes the situa
tion will be relieved.
The first death of a veteran in the
town of Gettysburg occurred this after
noon. The victim was J. D. Albert, of
Washington, D. C. about 70 years old.
The fifth death reported in camp was
that of Christopher Tates, aged 70. a
veteran from Latrobe, Pa., who died to
day of heat prostration. In the hos
pital of the Pennsylvania state health
department three women were received
this afternoon suffering from the heat.
None was believed to be in a serious
condition tonight.
The agitation for the closing of the
barrooms in the town of Gettysburg
appears to have died away tonight, and
they remain open for a flourishing busl
ness.
VETERAN'S AGE IS 110 YEARS

MIDDLETOWN. N. Y.. July 1. (Spe,

PROTESTS ARE IGNORED

AL-LOWS 23 SALOONS.
Church Remonstrance Passed Up by
Officials, Only T-vro Being Denied
Liquor Selling License.
THE DALLES, Or.. July 1. (Special.)
Ignoring the protest and remon
strance of the United Brethren, Chris
tian, ' Baptist and Methodist churches,
the City Council last night granted 23
of the 25 applications for saloon li
censes. Permits were refused W. J. Harrlman
and J. K. Whlttaker. The former failed
to deposit his license money tn the re
quired time and submitted a faulty ap
plication for a permit. Whittaker's sa
loon was closed recently by' the Sheriff,
his stock being attached by ' liduor
dealers of Portland.
The remonstrance of the four churches
alleged that, due to an omission which
was made by the State Legislature
when it redrafted the local city charter
in 1905. the Council had no legal power
to license and' regulate the saloon busi
ness; that th ordinance passed by the
Council. June 17. 1913. under the home
rule amendment to the state constitu
tion, was void because the amendment.
the churches Insisted, was not self-
executing, did not amend the charter
and did not become effective until its
provisions shall have been legally put
in force by the voters of the city under
the local option law. The remonstrance
also-asserted that the saloons Injured
the local churches in many ways.
The Council ignored the remon
strance, after It was read, passing it
up without comment or action and then
proceeding to grant the 23 licenses.
The saloons of The Dalles have been
reduced from 29 to 23 during the last
year.

New Law Ef rectlve Staking Poison In
Heads Illegal.
CHICO, Cal., July 1. (Special.) The
manufacture of the non-phosphorus
match, began today throughout the
United States, marking the end of the
poison phosphorus match. In compli
ance with the Federal. law prohibiting
the use of the white phosphorus In
the making of matches, which became
effective today, the local plant of the
Diamond Match Company began the
manufacture of a combustible which
eliminates danger to employes and the
danger of poisoning to the consumer.
Although no cases of "phossy Jaw,"
which Is the popular name for the rav
ages of phosphorus poison in the jaw
bone, have been permitted to develop
locally, thousands of deaths of match
plant employes have occurred in the
past and., many more deaths of con
sumers have been traced directly to
phosphorus poisoning.
The new composition is known as
sesqui sulphide. It Is non-poisonous
even when taken Into the stomach, so
that the household as well as the fac
tory Is free from danger of phospho

MORMON CHURCH IS TARGET
( Continued from First Pase.)
it with an influence out of all propor
tion to Its membership.
"In' politics the Mormon church
knows no party but the Mormon party.
Because Its people are dictated to and
dominated by the church; because they
act as a unit and cast their votes as
directed. Utah Is wholly under its con
trol, and It holds the balance of power
in the mountain states roundabout.
With the Congressmen and Senators ot
10 or 12 states already obedient to Its
will, or afraid to incur its displeasure,
how Ions will it be before the lormon
church holds the balance of power in
the Nation? This time will come, and
come soon, unless the patriotic citi
zenship and statesmanship of the coun
try awake to the peril."
He denounced the claims of Mormon-
ism as blasphemous, its teachings as
carnal, gross and sensual. Its practices
as false and deceptive. The practice
of polygamy, he declared, has never
been abandoned and is still sanctioned
and carried on secretly by the leader
of the Mormon Church, In defiance of
their compact with the United States
Government.
Toleration Held Costly.
"I bolleve in tolerance." he said, "but
we cannot afford to tolerate a menace
which strikes at the home. We cannot
afford to tolerate a menace that exacts
an oath of treason and disloyalty
which Is exacted In the, secret rites of
the Mormon Temple.
"Apostle Reed Smoot. now in the
United States Senate, took that oath.
He and his confreres have devoted this
Republic to destruction, and yet his
treason is no bar to a seat in the coun
cils of the Government! We dare not
write toleration across that sort of
thing. Leniency that shuts its eyes
to a system that corrupts the home,
defies the law of the land and has
taken a covenant of vengeance against
the Nation, is Weak, and wicked. Tol
eration of teaching that scatters moral
poison, toleration of high-handed
crime, toleration of a system that uses
its power to nullify law, toleration of
a man In the United States Senate who
is the sworn enemy of all the flag
tands lor and who is pledged to its
dishonor and destruction. Is pusillani
mous, it is cowardly, It is compounding
with those who are bent on scuttling
the ship.
Load Protest Asked.
"Toleration Is not tepidity. Lenlencv
is not laxity. Breadth is . not blind
ness. Generosity is not indifference.

our gates and let the Trojan horse

tions, is not to be liberal, or tolerant:
It Is to be idiotic and unworthy of our
heritage and the flag under which we
live
"Against the menace of Mormon Ism
there should go forth from this Con
ference a protest so definite, so loud
that it . will be heard In Washington
and heard all over the land. - This tyr-
anny should be broken. This ignominy
should be wiped from the map. The
people of this country should compel
the expulsion of the Apostle Senator
from the upper House. Not a star in
the flag should be polluted by polyg
amy, and to the end that It may be
successfully dealt with and forever put
under ban, the National Constitution
should be so amended as to make polyg.
amous marriage a severely punishable
crime from sea to sea."
Resolution Carries Loudly. .
Following his' address. Professor O.
F. Davis, of Wisconsin, proposed a res
olution indorsing the resolution of
Congressman Gillette, of Massachusetts,
for an amendment to the Federal Con
stitution, to bring the Mormon church
under Federal Jurisdiction. enabling
the Federal Government to legislate
against . polygamous marriage and
polygamous living, and to punish of
fenders. The resolution Introduced by
Mr. Davis further urged members of
the conference to carry home to their
respective states all the influence they
may use to promote any legislation
which may bring about the ratifica
tion of the Gillette amendment.
The response of the audience when
the resolution was put by Dr. Win ton
was a prolonged and thunderous af
firmative. When J. S. Martin, of Pitts
burg, called upon the ushers to pass
about and take up a collection for the
financing of the movement against
Mormonism, hundreds of dollars were
tossed into the cpllectlon basins, and
many men, standing on the benches,
called back the ushers who had over
looked them so that they might con
tribute to the fund.
Disturbance Guarded An-slnst.
A-rumor that several Mormons were
to attend the meeting had led to the
fear that a disturbance might be cre
ated, and Captain Moore had 33 po
licemen stationed within the stadium
to insure quietness, and furnished an
escort for Dr. Coyle to his hotel after
the close of the session. A party of
Mormons was present, but they made
no demonstration beyond sending a re
quest for privilege to circulate their
literature in the audience. This privi
lege was freely granted to them.
Entirely different in its nature was
the address of Br. Ng Poon Chew, of
Canton, upon the influences of Christi
anity In the formation of the new Chi
nese republic. Wit and humor were in
terspersed within intensely patriotic
utterances, and a running accompani
ment of laughter and applause followed
the progress of his speech. The prin
cipal element which brought about the
resolution and the establishment of the
republic he declared to be the example
of the Christian nations. He urged that
the Influence of Christianity has yet
much to do in solidifying the character
of the new republic, and urged that
strong men be sent' to China to teach
Its people.
"What we need Is not only good but
great men who can train up for us a
native ministry, and within 100 years
I believe that China will be entirely a
Christian nation."
