New York, July 14.—That infantile
paralysis is neither so uncertain in
origin nor so fatal in effect as is gen-
erally supposed, was the assertion of
Dr. Simon Flexner of the Rockefeller
Institute, in a paper read at a mass
meeting of physicians here last night.
While the death rate has varied from
5 to "20 per cent, this figure is not ac-
curate, as only a small number of cases
are actually reported, Dr. Flexner said.
The origin of the disease is in the j
secretions of the nose, throat and in-
testines. The chief conveyor is the
human being himself, Dr. Flexner said.
Flies are known to have carried the
infection in some cases, and poultry,
pigs, dogs and cats are suspected.
Very many cases also have been
transmitted by mothers caring for the
noses and throats of their children and
then carrying the virus either to the
other children or to the food, the ex-
pert declared.

No Truth in Report Regarding His 4
Defection.
By Associated Press.
El Paso, Tex., July 14.—Persons ar-
riving here today from Chihuahua said
there was no truth in the reported
defection of Gen. Jacinto Trevino, who
was said to have cast aside the author- {
ity of Gen. Carranza.
Gen. Trevino is reported to have
only 1000 soldiers in Chihuahua City,
the remainder having been assigned to
the chase of Villa bands and to the
Northern Chihuahua patrols.
It was reported her tehat a number "
of Carranza troops stationed south of
Juarez were being held there for use
against any bandits who may attempt
border raids. Rumors were spread that
these troops were attempting to cre-
ate disaffection in the Juarez garri- j
son.
own boats during the week of the
nictor boat maneuvers and will be held
responsible for the conduct of their
crews. During the week of motor boat
meaneuvers, instruction will be given
in scouting, searching, patrolling, sig-
naling, maneuvering by signals, de-
fense of naval districts, study of coasts,
piloting, and all the other duties they
might be called upon to perform.
The boats are to be divided into four
classes.
Class A, which will consist of boats
able to make twenty statutes biles an
hour. They must be seaworthy and
able to make twenty statues miles an
ordinary conditions. They must also be
able to carry and house four men,
and must be able to maintain them-
selves for at least forty-eight hours
and have a cruising radius of 100 miles
They must be so constructed and be
sufficiently stable to carry a one-
pounder rapid-fire gun, which weighs
460 pounds. They must have a yard
and mast fitted with a yard for flag-
heist signaling, and either electric or
oil lamps for signaling at night. Their
equipment must include two sets of
international code signals.
Class B, which will consist of boats
filling the same requirements as Class
A except that they must have a speed
of at least ten miles an hour.
Class C, which will consist of boats
having a speed of at least fifteen stat-
ute miles an hour; thta can run under
ordinary weather conditions in har-
bors or bays; that have suitable accom-
modations for three men; that are self-
sustaining for twenty-four hours and
have a cruising radius of fifty miles;
that are able to carry a gun in a suit-
able position for temporary use, such
as . Colt automatic or other machine
gun. mounted on a tripod, the total
weight of which is about forty-five
pounds, and which carry signal lamps
and wigwag and semaphore flags for
hand signaling.
Class D, which will consist of all
boats not fulfilling the requirements
of the other classes, but which are ac-
cepted as suitable after inspection by
naval officers.
At the end of the week of the motor
boat maneuvers, the men in command
of . boats will be given a certificate
stating the nature of the service they
have performed, the efficiency they
have displayed, and the rating their
boats are qualified to hold. The en-
rollment of the owners for the weej
of maneuvers does not involve any ob-
ligation other than obedience to or-
ders during the week.

Germans in supplying their army di-
rectly south of the Ancre river.
News of the British success was re-
ceived in London with the greatest en-
thusiasm. It has given added weight1
to the request of the government to
workmen to forego the August holidays
so that the army may be kept well sup-
plied with munitions.
There was no news this motning of
important developments on the re-
mainder of the western front, but at
last accounts the French were prepar-
ing to resume their offensive south of
the Somme, while the Germans were
still hammering at the defenses of Ver-
dun. The opinion is held in France,
however, that continuation of the
Somme battle will compel the Germans
to slacken their efforts at Verdun.
The Russians have , made no notice-
able advance on any part of their
front since they gained the Stokhod
river, where the struggle continues des-
perately. The right bank apparently
has now been cleared of Germans, but
it is not known here whether the cross-
ings made by the Russians have giv-
en them a firm footing on the left
| bank. Gen. von Bothmer, having re-
ceived reinforcements, has succeeded
in holding, the Russians in Galicia,
but with Delatyn in the hands of the
Russians they possess an advantage
from which further success is expect-
ed.
The operations in the Caucasus are
becoming more and more important.
After suffering heavy Josses in their
counter offensive, the Turks are now
being pressed back towards Biaburt and
Erzigan, while in Persia the Russians
have, brought up reinforcements to
meet the Turks who drove them from
sanitary control of those coming in
contact with it. At present there is
no safe method of preventive inocula-
tion. although experiments are being
made with the transfusion of blood
from a person already made immune
by having had the disease.
The extent to which recovery may
occur is very great, Dr. Flexner said.
In many cases the residue of paraly-
sis may be so small as not seriously to
hamper the life activities of the suf-
ferer. In others it may be greatly re-
lieved by suitable orthopoedic treat-
ment. What is imperative, Dr. Flexner
asserted, is to remember that recov-
ery is a process extending over a long
period of time, perhaps even years.
The extent of susceptibility to the
Odisease is relatively small. It is lower
than in measles, scarlet fever or diph-
theria. The present outbreak is not
extraordinary, the expert pointed out,
for not since the disease first appeared
in 1907 has the country been entirely
free of it. Every summer since then
has brought some accession of the dis-
ease.
A marked increase in both the num-
ber of new cases and deaths in the in-
afntile paralysis epidemic during the
last 24 hours was shown today in the
report of the health department. Dur-
ing the 24-hour period ending at 10
a. m. today there was 162 new cases,
while 31 children died from the dis-
esse in the five boroughs of New
Yerk.
Brooklyn had the greatest number
of new cases in a single day since the
epidemic began, June 26. There were
sixteen deaths and 122 new cases in
that borough.

London, July 14.--—At daylight this
morning the British, resuming the of-
fensive north . of the Somme, attacked
the German second line defenses and,
according to the report of their com-
mander, General Sir Douglas Haig, suc-
ceeded in penetrating them on a front
of four miles. Press dispatches from
the front add that the villages of Ba-
zentin-Legrand and Longueval, north
of Montauban and the remaining por-
tion of Trones wood were taken by the
British.
While it was expected the British
would not allow any great length of
time to elapse before continuing’ their
operations, it. was hardly believed the
second, German line would be attacked
after only one day of artillery prepar-
ation, for it was only the day before
yesterday that they completed capture
of the first line in the region between
Hardecourt and Ovillers. The direction
of the attack, too, was something of
a surprise, for instead of pushing on
toward Combles, General Haig chose
to attack the flank of the Germans
who faced Contalmaison and Ovillers
and those who still occupy Pozieres.
The advance to Longueval and Bazen-
tin-Legrand, if accomplished, gives the
British possession of other important
roads running in various directions
which have been a great help to the
Special to The Tribune.
New York, July 14,—The efficient
service rendered by the motor boat
owners of Great Britain, many of whom
have become expert submarine hunt-
ers, has led to a realization that the
100,000 motor boats between New
London, Conn., and Barnegat Inlet,
wov id prove an invaluable aid to the
fleets of the navy in case of an at-
tempted invasion.
A call for the owners of these mo-
ter boats to enroll for the defense of
the country was issued yesterday by
the Civilian Committee of the Naval
Traming Cruise of 34 Pine street,
which has made arrangements for the
boats to take part with the battle-
ships in a week of harbor defense work
in September. The navy department
has inaugurated a civilian training
cruise of. four weeks, starting on Aug.
15, and lasting until Sept. 12. The last
week of these- maneuvers will be de-
voted to harbor defense work, in
which motor boats, as well as steam
yachts and gasoline boats, will be mo-
bilized and drilled to demonstrate how
they can be best utilized in time of
war. Many of the yachts and motor
boat owners who intend to take part

London, July 14.—The Marquis of

statement to John Redmond’s charge

Tuesday was a declaration of war I
against Ireland, anounced that the
speech was made after consultation
with Premier Asquith and other mem-
bers of the government.
“In making my statement,” he writes,

Urges Intra-Spina| Injection of Adren-
alin Solution.
By Associated Press.
New York, July 14.—Dr. S. J. Meltzer
of the Rockefeller Institute received
many inquiries today regarding his
treatment of infantile paralysis, which
was discussed at the special confer-
ence of the Academy of Medicine, held
last night to consider the disease now
epidemic in New York City, He urged
the treatment of all cases by intra-
spinal injections of solutions of adrena-
li n.
“This procedure,” said Dr. Meltzer,
“may save life and in surviving cases
it may reduce the extent of the final
lesion. There is no danger involved.”
The physician declared he had great
faith in this tratment, because of the
remarkable results it accomplished
with monkeys which had been artifi-
cially infected with infantile paralysis.

MILITIA IN TEXAS.
There are now upward of 30,000
troops scattered along the Mexican
border, and more troops are arriving
daily, according to Col. J. T. Stockton,
quartermaster of the Texas national
guard, who has just returned from
a istay of a week on the border in
the vicinity of Brownsville. As fast
as the new troops are reaching the
border they are being assigned to duty
in the various regiments.
Col. Stockton said the troops that
have been doing duty on the border for
the past several weeks are now pre-
senting the appearance of veterans and
are fast becoming seasoned and ac-
climated.
FERGUSON RETURNS.
Gov. Ferguson returned last after-
noon from Bosque county where he has
been spending some time since he
made a speech at Mart, McLennan coun-

itinerary for the remainder of the
time until the primary election on
July 22, he may decide to make several
more speeches at different points. Upon
his return he found a number of in-
vitations from over the state asking
him tc make speeches and he may ac-
cept some of these invitations.

Austin, July 14.—A thorough inspec-
tion of the oyster reefs and fishing
points on the gulf coast is to be made
by Will W. Wood, state game, fish and
oyster commissioner, who has just
left for Rockport from which place
he will commence his investigation. Be-
fore leaving, Commissioner Wood said
that fish were plentiful at this sea-
son of the year, and the indications
are there will be a large and health-
ful crep of oysters. Commissioner
Wood will also investigate alleged vio-
lations of the fishing laws, as he said
he has found that the practice of fish-
ing out of season in closed waters to
be of long standing, and it is taking
the combined efforts of the state of-
ficers and the deputy wardens to check
the practice.
