Battl.ahipt North Dakota and Dala- Long Life of Fever Bacilli Shown in wara Hava Waak Points. Case of Milkmaid. Washington, Nov. 5.—In view of the order of the secretary of the navy re voking the prohibition recently placed against officers who attended the New port conference from discussing its action, an officer who was prominently identified with the entire proceedings today stated that it had substantiated, with a few minor exceptions, the charges of defects pointed out in Com mander Keyes’ letter on that subject. This officer has been foremost in his denunciation of naval defects. The conference decided, he said, that very few of these could be reme died in the North Dakota and Dela ware, which are now 40 per cent com pleted, but suggested that, if practica ble, additional case armor of about 100 tons be placed around the smoke pipe and up-takes to protect them against splinters. The additional armor would increase the protection to eight inches. They recommend that, if practicable, an entire fire control mast be placed forward of the smokestacks, for that in case the vision from the rear mast is obscured by smoke, a clear view could be secured from the other posi tions. The conference hesitated about mak ing extensive changes in the plans of the Florida and Utah, as any alteration that would involve a considerable change of weights would require a re construction of the plans. On the important subject of what ought to be the type of the next battle ships to be designed, the kind of bat tery they should carry, and their arm or, the conference has not made a deci sion. _______ Washington, Nov. 7.—One of. the most remarkable discoveries in medical history in connection with the source of the spread of typhoid fever has just been brought to light as the resalt of an investigation by officer of the pub lic health and marine hospital service into a recent outbreak of that disease in Georgetown, or West Washington, D. C. The investigation disclosed the fact that a woman milker at a neighbor hood dairy who had typhoid fever 18 fyears ago still throws off virile typhoid fever bacilli and was the responsible agent in spreading the disease. With one exception this is the first considerable outbreak of typhoid fever in the United States traced through milk to such a carrier. A peculiar feature in connection with the case is that the examination devel oped large numbers of typhoid bacilli although the woman apparently was enjoying good health. Surgeon General Wyman says an im portant source of disease has been dis covered, and one which heretofore has not been duly recognized. The case just discovered is deemed of medical interest to health officers in tracing obscure sources of typhoid fev er outbreaks. General Wyman states that this case establishes the fact that at least 2 per cent of all the recovered cases of ty phoid fever become bacilli carriers for a longer or shorter period, even while otherwise enjoying good health. Clark May Succeed Williams. Navy Riflemen Take Everything in Sight in Australia. Washington, Nov. 3.—When the sec ond session of the Sixtieth congress convenes in December, regardless of whether the Republicans or the Demo crats have carried the house, there will be at least one change sf regime that will be interesting and, perhaps, im portant. John Sharp Williams, of Mississippi, will no longer be the mi nority leader. In his place, unless all signs are misleading, will be Repre sentative Champ Clark, of Missouri. Mr. Williams, whom the people of ' Mississippi have chosen to be senator, announced some time ago that he had concluded to give up the minority lead ership, regardless of what might be the result of the approaching election.

TEA M D O E S G R EA T SH O O T IN G Washington, Nov. 3. — President Roosevelt has been made acquainted, through a report submitted to the Navy department by Lieutenant Harrin Lan- ing, of some details of splendid work of the battleship rifle teams in defeat ing the Melbourne, Australia, Rifle club, said, in the report, to be probably as strong a team as could be put up in Australia. The navy team of riflemen also beat a team in Sydney, but were defeated by a small margin by one from Auckland. The contest with the Melbourne club was held under very unfavonrable con ditions, the score resulting in a total of 1,414 for the Americans and 1,369 for the Australians. The highest score was made by Cor poral Farquharson, of the marine corps of the Connecticut, who made 99 out of a possible 106, and thereby secured for his vessel the temporary possession of the Auckland trophy. At Sydney the fleet rifle team defeat ed a team made up from councils of the National Rifle association and the Metropolitan association.
