NO OCCASION FOR ALARM
Btoriai of Epidemic- of Diplitteria in Fnblio
Schools Unwarranted.
PHYSICIANS MAKE'KO REQUEST OF BOARD
Oaljr Few Cases at I'reaent la City
and Majority mt Theae Set
1'aplls Wkt Art Attest
ing tha Schools,
President Il9is and members of tha Board
of Education take exception to the efforts
of certain newspaper to create aa Impres
sion that there is an epidemic of diphtheria
In tha city schools. In all, twelve cases of
diphtheria have been reported to the Board
of Health since tha new school year opened
last month, and of these not more than
six wet's children attending , the public
schools.
"This talk of there being a diphtheria
epidemic in the schools of this city is
greatly exaggerated," said President Hess
yesterday. "While ft Is ststed that tha
doctors at their meeting Tuesday night
discussed the prevalence of diphtheria
among the school children, they have made
no report to tha Board of Education nor
made any recommendations in the matter.
Neither has the board received any re
ports from the principals of tha different
schools which would Indicate that there
was any alarming' prevalence of this dis
ease. The Board of ' Education stands
ready to take any action that the doctors
may deem advlxable. If so requested, but
so fur nothing has been said to the board
or the individual members so far as I know.
The only " information I have concerning
tha alleged epldemlo is from what I have
read in certain newspapers, and these ao
counta I feel sure are exaggerated. Such
reports when not based on faots ara apt
to do harm."
Of the three children reported aa ill with
diphtheria to the Board of Health W ednea
day, It was learned that but one had been
attending school. The cases so far re
ported are of a particularly mild charac
ter, although there Is the possibility ot
their becoming mora serious. - '
Dr. V. L. Treynor, whose son Is down
with the disease, is of the opinion that tha
boy contracted It by playing with children
who were suffering from mild cases of it,
but were allowed to continue in school
by their parents, the latter being under
tho impression that their children were
merely suffering from a slight throat
trouble. . Dr. Treynor is of the opinion
that there should be at this tlma a regular
examination ot school children for diph
theria. Ha has not, however, made any
such recommendation to the school board.

BURGLAR'S SKULL CRUSHED BY WATCHMAN
State Board of Control Vaable te Re
model Dipsomaniac Hospital
with Fanes Previaea by
the Legislator.
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
DES MOINES. Oct. 20.-(8peclal.) The
State .Board of Medical Examiners today
exonerated Dr. W. H. Warren of Shenan
doah from most remarkable charges which
have been laid against him the last year.
Warren is an Itinerant doctor, who was
well along in years before he secured a
diploma to practice medicine and later a
certificate from the state board. Last year
the accusation! came from the secretary of
the- Colorado Board of licalth to the effect
that Warren had never attended college at
all and never In person received a diploma,
that he had employed one Sidney Knowlea
to attend the University of New Yori:, that
Knowles personated Warren, and graduist'd
with the name of Warren and that ho
turned his diploma thus obtained over to
Warren for 11,009. It was, alleged that
Knowles had made confession of these mat
ters. The state board of Iowa was there
fore asked to rescind Warren's oertlflcute
on the ground that his diploma was ob
tained by fraud. The Investigation has
been going on for a long time. Today War.
ren presented to the board affidavits con
tradicting all the accusations and showed
by the testimony, of. reliable physicians
that he did In fact attend college and that
he graduated In person In 18S6. It now de
velops that the whole matter grew out of
trouble In Colorado, where Warren had
traveled and where he had got Into trouble
pver payment of a bill. The state board
on hearing the evidence Immediately voted
to exonerate Dr. Warren.
Infested by Bamlara.
. A gong of burglara haa been operating In
East Des Moines the last week and about
a dozen houses . have been entered and
articles stolen therefrom. In a number of
Instances chloroform was used to facili
tate the operations. The residents of a
part ot the city have organised a force of
night watchmen to protect themselves and
are armed to put an end to the depreda
tions. This morning at an early hour n un
identified man, who was alleged to have
been attempting to break Into the Harris
Emery store on Walnut street, was struck
on the head ty . Charles Morton, colored
porter at the store, and his skull crushed,
from the effects of which It is expected he
will die. The stranger was. unable to give
hla name, but the initials "E. R. P." were
on his shirt collar. It is believed he ia
one of the gang of robbers.
' Mine Promoter Very 111.
News comes from Iowa FallB to the effect
that Byron B. Bliss, tha promoter and
manager of the Hawkeye and the Llllooet
Mining companies, is very 'Ml with loco
motor ataxia at his home in that city.
The investigation of his. affairs shows that
with one company he Is short about 117,000,
while probably In a somewhat larger sum
With the other company. -Attorneys repre
senting the etcttkhoiqerg -fiaf e investigated
and find that ho has-' sumoteat1 property not
exempt to make go6'd"tnofahortages and
that his bondsmen. are responsible for the
sums. The headquarters off the Hawkeye
company have been taken to Cedar Rapids
and It Is entirely In other hands. Investi
gation shows that both companies were
under wretched management and that Bliss
took the mopey supposing that he would
be able to pay It back before any suspicion
arose. It ia probable that prosecutions will
fqllow.
