Claims of Medical Society Member of
a Cure for Pneumonia.
CHICAGO, April 3CL-The an
nouncement of a new theory as to
the case of pneumonia and the dis
covery of a remedy for the disease
was made at last' night's meeting of
the Chicago Medical Society.
Dr. H. Manning Fish, who made
the announcement, backed up his as
sertions with a detailed description of
a case of acute pneumonia which, he
declared, had been cured iu 24 hours
by means of the simple method which
he described.
Dr. Fish first declared that the seat
of the trouble- in pneumonia cases was
not, as is generally supposed, not in
the lungs but in the small cells in the
bony framework at the top of the
nose.

ORGANIZED LABOR.
To Take an Active Interest in Coming
National Election.
CHICAGO, April 30.-Organized
labor will make its influence felt in
the coming presidential election to an
extent that will make statesmen "sit
up and take notice," according to
Samuel Gompers, president of the
American Federation of Labor, who
parsed through the city last night on
his way to Wisconsin. The leader of
the labor movement was optimistic,
as usual but hS set his teeth when
Congress was mentioned and declared
'thatif the measure urged "by labor
did not become laws at this session
those responsible .will haVe to answer
in the fall election.
Mr. Gompers said he had been ad
vised by the executive committee that
'the Wilson bill amending the Sher
man anti-trust law will be introduced
in the Senate today by William Al
den Smith of Michigan. . ,
The determined stand which the
labor unions took against wage re
' duct ions, has saved the country from
an industrial stagnation, in the opin
ion of Mr. Gompers.
ARMY RELIEF SOCIETY.
NEW YORK, April 30.-The fam
ily of the average army officer has all
it can do to get along under ordinary
circumstances and when death comes
there is often nothing for the widow
to do but return with her children to
her parents, who, if they are army
people, arc themselves, living on the
ragged edge." In these words the
Rev. Dr. George Duryee summed up
the reason for the existence of the
army relief society at the annual
meeting of that organization held at
the home of Mrs. Daniel Lament.
"It had to come," Dr. Duryea
said." and the reports showed that it
was sorely needed while, there is still
much that is unable to do for lack of
knowledge as to where help is need
ed." "We want to do more," said Mrs.
Lament, the president, "and we hope
that as the army people become bet
ter acquainted with our work they
will help us to find cases. They can
not find them without assistance.'
The treasurer, Cornelius N. Bliss,
reported that about $7000 had been
expended ibis year in relief, educa
tion and loans where there is $55,000
on deposit as a permanent fund.

National Express Company from
Chicago to St. Louis. Failure to pre

HUNDREDS KILLED
By Terrific Explosion on Japa
nese Cruiser
CAUSE AT PRESENT UNKNOWN
Disaster Occurred at an Early Hour
and the Vessel Quickly Sinks Was
an Out-of-Date Vessel, Used as a
Training Ship Sends Message,
TOKIO, April 30,-Admiral Yoshi
matsu, commander of the training
squadron, reports that an explosion
occurred in the stern magazine of the
cruiser Matsushima at 4:08 o'clock
this morning while anchoring at Ma
kang, a harbor on the Pescadores
Islands. The Matsushima immediate
ly sunk until only the bridge was vis
ible. Efforts at rescue by boats from
the cruisers Hashidate and Itsukushi
ma continued unti 9 a. m., saving the
lives of 141 men, including some offi
cers. The majority of the officers
were not saved, and at the time of
the Admiral's report the cadets num
bered 58 out of a complement of 300.
The sons of Baron Chinda, Vice
Minister of the Foreign Office, and of
Prince Oyama, Field Marshal, arc
among the cadets who it is feared are
lost; also Captains Name, Yoshmori
and Yashiro. The cause of the ex
plosion is unknown.
WASHINGTON, April 30.-Baron
Takahira, the Japanese Ambassador,
was just about to start for the State
Department today when a represen
tative of the Associated Tress show
ed him the 'dispatch from Tokio, tell
ing of the loss of life by the explo
sion on the cruiser Matsushima.
Commander Taniguchi, the naval
attache of the Japanese Embassy,
said today that the regular comple
ment of the vessel was about 355
men and that on her cruise she had
about 50 cadets aboard, making a to
tal of 415. His cablegram, he said,
indicates that about 175 were saved,
which would make the loss of officers
and men about 240.
Naval officers who have looked up
the record of the cruiser drew the
conclusion that her loss was not a
heavy one to the Japanese navy. She
was of less than S000 tons displace
ment and of a type which has not
been followed since her construction.
The peculiarity of the Matsushima
was her armament, which consisted
of one 12 inch gun, mounted on her
poop deck. In addition she carried
12 four-inch guns and a battery of
smaller caliber and four above-water
torpedo tubes. She was built in
1890, being designed and constructed
at Laseyne, France., Her principal his
toric record consists of her part in
the war between Japan and China,
when she was the flagship of Admiral
Ito in the battle of the Yalu River.
She also participated in the battle of
the Sea of Japan. Two sister ships
were built, the ,'Itsukushima'in 1890,
and the Hashidate, in 1891. She is
classed as a protected cruiser, having
a protected deck of li inches thick.
Her speed was 107 knots.
It is understood that the cruiser
was in use as a school ship. Based
on the advices, naval experts inferred
that the" explosion wa-. caused by
either a defective electric wire, an
electric fuse or deterioration in the
stock of smokeless powder, affected
by heat. The deterioration of pow
der, causing it to ignite and ex
plode, is one of the. constant dangers
aboard warships.
Every navy except the United
States has installed cooling machine's
in the magazines of their ships of re
cent type for the purpose of main
taining an even temperature.
It is not regarded as probable that
the warship had such apparatus in
stalled, as she was considered as out
of date as a fighting ship.
Acting Secretary of the Navy New
berry today sent the following cable
gram to the American Naval Attache
at Tokio, who is directed to present it
to the Japanese officials:
"Express to the Minister of Marine
deep sorrow and sympathy of depart
ment and American Navy at terrible
accident on board Matsushima, in
which many gallant Japanese officers
and men are reported to have lost
their lives."
