Now the Italian authorities have ordered the Jeault fathers to vacate tho premises, aa only two or three would be sufficient for the custody of the tomb. Tt Is feared that similar acta of reprisals will be adopted by the government toward ether religious orders which, strictly ac cording to law, have no right to exist In Italy. Th Vatican authorities are much con cerned over the matter, especially because the rellgloua teaching may be abolished in all the public schools and the position N of the many members of the religious or ders, who have . lately come here from France, may be rendered unpleasant. f-rohlbltlea oa Vetla-.

Jan. 16.-The Chicago MeJical society and the Illinois State Medical as sociation will. It Is expected, begin pro ceedings against the antl-ioxln truxt under the anti-trust law. Secretary Pritchard of the Health department sulci today that he had information to that effect. An offi cial statement regarding the "death trust" In anti-toxin was Issued today by Secretary Pritchard. The statement says: The antt-toxln trust Is nothing more or less than a tiafflc In human life. The con cerns, which manufacture and practically control the anti-toxin supply of almost the entire country, have seen lit arbitrarily to advance the price of their product KM IT cent. This discovery was made by ho Department' ot Health of the city 'of Chi cago, when. In ordering Its neeiled supplies for charity work. It was met with thee In creased quotations. The department felt compelled to call public attention to the evidence that a combine had leen formed which effectually controlled the price of the only INiown remedy for the most dread scourge to the child life of the country. Primarily our object was to call attention to the Im mediate effect this would have on the death rate of children In the city of Chi cago. . Since the discovery of anti-toxin tho Department of Health has done all In Its power to encourage Its use. It has furnished Its own. medical Inspectors to administer It and has provided the anti toxin in all cases where the people were too poor to purchase It. The hortsontsl Increase In the price made hy the trust means that the city of Chicago will be compelled to appropriate double ths sum lo do the same amount of charity work In diphtheria cases for liH that tt did In 19W. This the city can do and doubtless will do, but outside of this It must be remembered that tills burden will fall heaviest, on the self-respecting, self-supporting heads of families of modest neomes. To all such, should diphtheria Invade their homes and they be compelled to pay the Increased prices, the burden put upon them by the anti-toxtn trust will In deed be grievous. It should be noted that the Increased f rices quoted by the trust to the city are he prices of the manufacturers to a Job ber. This applies not only to Chicago, but practleslly to the entire country. The pub licity already given has aroused the medi cal profession to- the hlshest Infllgnatlon and will no doubt result In some steps be ing speedily taken to provide a supply of anti-toxin from sources other than that of the combine. A. F. Nightingale, one 'of I ie trustees of th University of Illinois, t-ay aal d: I think every state In the union should have a laboratory for the manufacture of anti-toxin serum for use Id that state.
