Fulton, upon a matter which it is be lieved to be of public interest: Department of Commerce and Labor Bureau of Fisheries, Washington. . 1 December 30, 1907. . "Bon. C. W. Fulton, U S. Senate, "Washington, D C. "Sir: Your letter of the 17th instant, enclosing a letter from Mr. H. G. Van Dusen, the Master Fish Warden of the State of Oregon, requesting an investi gation of the natural history of the Columbia River salmon is acknowledged. "Both these letters have received the careful consideration of this office. The issue raised is one which has the keenest nterest to the Bureau of Fisheries, which has long felt that just such a study as the Board of Fish Commission en of Oregon has in mind should be Biade. Two seasons, in fact, have been 'Jevoted by a small force from the Bureau to such work in the headwaters f Salmon River and at the Payette lakes in Idaho. This work was very fruitful in results, and led to recom mendations based upon the observations Bade. Even these recommendations, though not belonging to an exhaustive inquiry, would, it is believed, have been f use to Washington, Oregon and Idaho, but these states have not been hie, it appears, to take cognizance of them in their management of the salmon fisheries. , "The letter of Mr. Van Dusen cites with biological methods should be given to the work for a pediod of 3 to ft years. The Bureau would be glad to inaugurate immediately a salmon inquiry concen t rated on the Columbia River basin, and hopes that its personnel and appropria tions may be adequate to this and to others of similar character and Import ance. At present, however, the constant' ly-increasing demands from many and widely separated sections 0) the country, coincident with its rapidly development, tend to make the Bureau rather less. instead of more, able to cope with pro' jects of the size of the one proposed The fact that this Bureau is concerned with the conservation of a great com mercial food staple of enormous and in creasing importance, would seem to argue a development of its biological work somewhat analogous to that of government bureaus administering other great resources, such as forestry and certain phases of agriculture. "Respectfully, "GEORGE M. BOWERS, "Commissioner." REMARKABLE DEVELOPMENT. Believes he Can Core Deaf, Dumb and Blind and Put End to Imbecility. NEW YORK, Jan. 14.-Speechless for 16 years, Gustave Laut has in 10 months learned to talk fluently. During the same period he had developed from an abnormal, undeveloped, almost imbecile boy, into an alert, active, ambitious per-' son; he has grown four inches in height permanent teeth have come to him against all the beliefs of the mental pro fession, and he now gives promise of becomiiig a healthy, normal man. His development is the result of experiments by Proiessor Charles Morris Campbell, of Albany, N. Y an instructor of music, who treated the boy according to theories of his owntheories which he believes will cure the deaf and even the blind as well as the dumb and put an end to imbecility. "I simply say don't try to force upon abnormal person, a normal education, any more than you force an abnormal education upon, a normal human being, says Professor Campbell. "Instead of seeking to choke down the throats of the former stereotyped instruction that may really be doing serious harm to bis stunted faculties, give your attention to educating those abnormalities and effect ing a cure. . ' "In this way an abnormal person may be brought to the condition where he can become an active, useful, agent in life and not be forced to bear a mill stone about his neck. And the way to that cure lies in proper exercise, most carefully directed, which will equalize the distribution of nerve force through out the body, thus bringing about co ordination of the muscular and nervous systems of the body." "When the boy first came to his notice Prof. Campbell said all of his habits were infantile and he was abnormal in every way. His body was undeveloped ' ' s i Y VJ lh 1 I r lit' 1 I L 1 f ' t N I .

Atfer the hear ing which consumed the greater part of the day Secretary of State Thompson announced he would defer his ruling in the presidential primary controversy at Cleveland until January 20. All efforts at a compromise today were fruitless. While Thompson decline to say positive ly whether he will pass the matter up to the state committee, the opnion is general that this will be done. Seven-Year-Old Fire Hose Breaks "Under . Normal Pressure. NEW YORK, Jan. H.-As a result of Friday's fire in which the Parker build ing was practically destroyed and four men lost their lives, the Merchants' As sociation has asked Mayor Met'lcllan to order an investigation of the hose used by the fire department and the methods used to test it. An unusually large amount of hose burnt under the, high pressure put on it during the fire when attempts were being made to force water well up into the tall building. What amounts to almost a scandal has developed in the matter. It is said that more than 7 per cent of the length of hose put into use at the fine burst. The association, quoting a report, recently made by a committee of the Underwrit era' Association says that the ordinary tests for hose, which is purchased under specifications which call for hose' to withstand a pressure of 300 pounds, un der a four-year guarantee, have not been made of late years. It is aIo stated that a very large percentage of the hose now in use by the department is more than seven years old. ; ' BERT KEYES BESTED. BOSTON, Jan. 14.
