Hanging straps In street cars should be made of aluminum or some other sort of metal or of wood. Instead of leather, and stret cars should be fumigated at regular Intervals, according to Health Commis sioner R. W. Connell Thursday. The health commlsrloner gave out his opinion In discussing tha Investigation of street car straps which Is being made in San Francisco and upon which tha attention of the medical world la being riveted. Reports from the coast metropolis are that millions upon millions of death dealing germs have been diaoovered upon single straps; that a portion of these germs when Inoculated into a guinea pig brought death to tha little animal within thirty-six hours. "Of course, thai a are bacteria ln great quantities upon everything," said Dr. Con nell,' but for tha most part they ara not harmful. Danger, however, could be greatly reduced for tha publio who use street care If the straps were made of an other material than leather. Leather, be ing extremely porous, catches and holds germa far mora easily than other materials. The cars should be fumigated regularly at least If tha straps ara to ba made of leather." Tha commissioner explained that while the germ receptacles, swinging In the air overhead, wera to a high degree mediums for the wholesale spread of the harmless, and sometimes deadly bacilli, tha greatest danger lay ln contraction of the germs In open sores. A person with a cut on their hand or a bruise wua moat readily auscep tibia to tha disease that lurked In the straps.

Just sixteen days, six teen hours and forty-five minutes was the time used ln landing a cargo of silk in New York, after It left the dock ln Japan. Five carloads of tha precious product were re cently loaded on the Great Northern steam ship Minnesota ln Tokohoma, Japan, destined for New York, to be made Into tha finished product "A wireless message waa Bent from the liner to tha Great Northern officials at Seattle announcing the time of Its liyvllng. Ten hours and fifty minutes after thellner landed, a special train of five silk cars, heavily load' d, was speeding east to finish tha race. Tha time taken hy the train from Seattle to New York waa 303 hours and 65 minutes, and the cargo went over the Hill lines all of tha way. The five carloads were valued at over half a million dollars and the Insurance on the same was figured down to the minute.

LUCKY THAT THE BOY IS ALIVE lie Dashes from Behind Sprlakllac Wa gun In Front of the Car aad la Knocked Beneath tha Motor. Two serious accidents In one trip marked a run of Motorman 1L Ivay on the Twenty-fourth street line Thursday morning. Within the space of a few blocks his car. No. 460, struck and seriously injured a small boy, over whom halt tha car passed, and then, resuming travel, crashed into a brewery wagon, tha driver of which nar rowly escaped death. For the1 first accident at least, Ivey cannot be held to blame. The victim of tho catastrophe waa Neal Valley, a boy of I years, living at 2608 Franklin street Ha was struck at the in tersection of Franklin and Twenty-fourth by tha car, which was headed south, at U o'clock. The lad started to run across tha aureot. and as ha did so he passed ln front of a sprinkling wagon, which shut out from his view the oncoming car. Kye witnesses de clare that tha car was not going fast, but was slowing down to take on passengers, which probably accounts tor the fact that the Valley boy was not killed. The boy' stated that he was hit by the front of the vehicle and ln some manner he fell en tirely under the car and escaped being cut by the front wheels. He was rolled over and over, and was painfully bruised uud cut about tho head and body. Car Stops Short. The car was stopped by the motorman, 11. Ivey, when the rear wheel was wlthlu a half foot of the boy's head, it Is certain that If tba car had hot bean stopped when It was tho accident would have proved fatal. Tha boy was Immediately taken to tha office of Dr. McCloneghan, given med ical attention and later removed to his home. The doctor declared the accident would not prove dangerous unless Internal Injuries develop. Some fate- seemed to hover over the car and drive It with a destructlvo hand, for no sooner had It reached California and Sixteenth streets than It crashed Into a brewery wagon driven by llarry Wolpa. No one was Injured here, but the wagon was sent tumbling over, breaking and crashing aa It went. Tho driver managed to escape without being struck and crushed bentath the falling wagon. The statement waa made that Wolpa attempted to drive in front of the approaching car and was struck before tho motorman had an op portunity of stopping. V. L. Huntley was the conductor of the car.
