ANN ARBOR BLEACHED FALLS Konr Persona Arc Iajared by Fall of Stand Containing; Two Then ' ' aand Persona. f ANN ARBOR, Mich.. Nov. 18. Weak ened by the cheering and stamping in uni aoij of 2,000 people, the west bleacher on Ferry field collapsed thla afternoon a few minutes after the second half of the foot ball game between Michigan and Wlscon- i the lack of serious Injuries. Less than a doien of the occupants of the crowded stand were hurt enough to have a physi cian attend them. Following are among those moat painfully hurt: the'h?aHU,r' Ml,wauke' Wta- nurt about f. W.

Twenty minutes before the stand crashed down the officials discovered that It waa weakening and tried to have It va cated. Ths occupants were loath to leave their places and few of them had moved when the aouth end gave way. The col lapse waa gradual and section after sec tion of the stand slowly caved In. The flrst crash of breaking boards attracted the attention of both foot ball teams and the thousands In the other stands, and before the last section had entirely col hipaed the game had been stopped and both teama were running to tear down the fence separating the gridiron from the broken bleacher. A tremendoua cloud of duat arose aa the stand gradually went dawn and many of the people In the north end had time to leap to tha ground be fore that portion went down. Hundreds Of spectators rushed to the rescue and In live minutes the few people who had been caught by the broken planks were freed. Men searched under the wreckage for any uosslble victims who had been burltrd, but there were none. Doctors from the crowd attended all who were Injured and In nfteen minutes It waa Known one had been seriously hurt. . Coroner Holds Alleged Mnrnerer. DAYTON O.. Nov.

(Continued from Firat Page.) victim of yellow fever was taken from a house to fumigate that house and the two houses next, because the habit of the mosiiulto Indicated that it did not depart far from the plaoe of Its birth. It seems that tha mosquito that acquires and com municates the yellow fever virus Is a fe male, and this only during her period of gestation. She dies at the end of ninety days, and It is not known that the de. scendants . continue to carry the poison. These limitations sre .what ' prevent the spread, of the disease. . When Judge Maon arrived upon tha Isthmus ho found Dr. Gorgas battling man fully against the yellow fever, tbut the cases seemed to be Increasing. Judge Magoon -conceived the Idea that the fumfc. gatlon which had been confined to two or three houses might well be extended to all the hounes In Panama, and at consider able expense and after procuring a large amount of material, every house in Pan sma was fumigated once every two weeks. To secure increased vigilance and popular assistance he employed all the-respectable Panamanian physicians of Panama as in spectors of the districts of that city at annual salaries of $1,200 a year. He also offered $o0 reward for the discovery of any case of yellow fever not reported. By methods of this kind the native apathy, usually so great an obstacle to successful sanitation In Spanish countries, was neu tralised. Suffocating? the Insects. The plan of fumigation Is as follows: Strips of paper are placed across the win dows, which ordinarily have no glass or any netting in them, and then either by the fumes of the sulphur or pyrethrum every nook and orannv of .k- i'J'J4, ,1,'''' , " ar faU1 or Pralyi- , ..... ...c ...v..)Uiiu. jiuer sumcient time reduced to a point where during the last month only three cases. were reported, not one of these among canal employes, and all originating many miles from tha canal line. The efforts to subdue the fever in stead of being relaxed are being continued. Bquare miles of woven wire netting with Interstices so small as to prevent the en trance of mosquitoes are spread about tha piaxzas or the .house of every American or foreigner who comes to live under the auspices of the canal commission in the Isthmus. The windows inside are also screened, and then mosquito bars-on tba beds are used as a third precaution. Whenever a case of yellow fever Is dis covered, the paMent is at once either re moved to the hospital and put under a wire oth or, u ne preif rs to re- Suiter "bin,' .j 'EZ .'

The canal commission haa Its offices In one of these great stucco structures, with thick Walls, bad ventilation, and damp hook, ana crannies, it naa often been fumigated and cleaned In every way. but once In a while a new case of fever In one of the American employes Is to be charged to the old building. I am glad to say that the general offices are soon to be moved to new buildings at Culebra end Emperador on the line of the canal. Llttte.by little, and facing discouragement after dlscnur. rement. the 1M-) emploxes of the sanitary detriment are winning In this right against disease, upon which the whole sue. cess ot The cAnal work depends. As Mr. Pt evens said to me, when I crossed the Isthmus with him this month. "I take off my hat to the work which the sanitation department has done In this canal sone." In the month of August, out of a force Of lJ,onj meu, the percentage of illness was less than Ha per thousand. In June the cases of yellow fever were sixty-one and nineteen deaths. In July theca were thirty six cases and thirteeu deaths, in September there were nine cases, and in October but three. The percentage of deaths among all is about U and among Americans about 10. The work of furnishing water, of In stalling sewers and of building houses is not now in the sanitation department, but is under the engineering and construction department. But as soon as the work is completed It will be turned over to the sanitation department for maintenance. Good food is now furnished by a commis sary at reasonable rates. Tha carrying of refrigerated fruits and foods and meats ou refrigerator care from Colon across the Isthmus has Just been begun. There is an Ice plant at I -a Boca, another one at Colon, and others aking the way are to be con structed, so that Ice that most healthful form of liquid In the tropi-is-wlll lie at band for all.

It has alsb taken care of the insane and lepers of Panama, charging a certain rate per day. It exercises by right of law and by agreement complete quarantine jurisdic tion over Panama. Colon and the isthmian canal strip, and this quarantine Is a di vision of the sanitation bureau under Gov ernor Magoon and Colonel Gorgas. Not only has It been found possible to accomplish much by the draining of swamps by surface drainage, or turning of stag nant pools into running water, the cutting of gutters and the flushing from reservoirs, but the attention of the chief engineer has also been directed to filling up with the spoil from excavation made In construction swamps and lowlands which now generate disease. '1 he evidences of successful war ngalnst malaria, are not so easy to produce as those of the defeat of yellow fever. One reason Is that malaria Is so much harder to combat than is yellow fever. Victims, of Yellow Jack. To begin with, yellow fever finds its victims only among those who are not residents of the tropical euet towns, so at least the statistics seem to show. Euro peans and Americans Irom the temperate xone, and- Colombians coming from the hills and mountains, are all subjects of yellow fever, but generally the blacks from Jamaica and Trinidad, from the islands or the Caribbean sea, and the Pana manians themselves, are Immune. The lield for attack by yellow, fever, thertforo, is very much limited. Not so. however, with malaria. An examination for experimental purposes, and repeated at various times under the direction of Colonel Gorgas, shows that at least 70 per cent of people picked up at random In tie isthmus have the malarial microbe. I am glad to say that since our occupation the malaria has not guiierally taken on the malignant form of the days of the railroad and French canal construction, but Is rather mild.

Type of Canal. On the type of the canal to be constructed Secretary 'laft said: And now about the type of the csnal. I da not propose to Olsouss that.

LT i?U. Vs engineer of Boston: General H. L. Abbott. I one of the greatest of army engineers, who t I mi mane a stuay or tne cunal for years; Mr Joseph Ripley, chief civil engineer of Jje 8"rt canal; Mt1. Hunry Wk -Hunter of the Manchester sbln. canal, antloinle.l hv the English government at the request of the! prcsiuem; Mr. Adoipn Uuerard, one of the leading civil engineers in the employ of and appointed by the French government; Mr. Euge.n Tlncanxar, chief engineer of the Kiel canal, appointed by the German gov ernment; Mr. B. Quellennec, the consult ing engineer of, the Suet canal, and Mr. G. W. Welcker, appointed by the Nether lands government. The board Is presided over by Major General George W. Davis of the United States army, a gentleman of long experience In engineering and works of construction. The great question before the board is. Shall the canal be a sea-level or a lock canal? If it Is to be a lock canal, as recommend d by the Walker commission. I think the president may build the canal safely on the money appropriated without consulting congress further as to the type. If It la to be a sea-level canal, the ques tion. It s-ems to me, for reasons already stated, should be left to congress. There are various nlnna Mr. Rnneaii- Varllla produces a plan by which he would construct a locg canal, tne highest lock at 170 feet, and then would make pro vision for the ultimate reduction of this canal to a sea level. Another. Mr. Bates, nresents a plan for making, by dams, two great lakes at the termini of the canal and with a comparatively low l'ck a canal between. I shall not stop to discuss these various plans, because I am neither com petent nor have I time to do so. It will be sufflaient to discuss them when the advisory boaiM shall have returned its Judgment, when the commission shall have reported and when the matter is before the president for decision. Opposition from RaJl roads. One of the great obstacles to success In building the canal Is the opposition of powertul persons and interests to lis con struction. Borne of this opposition comes from those who are sincerely convinced that the Panama route is not a practic able route, and that there are other and easier routes to be preferred. It Is not to be expected that owners and managers of great transcontinental lines should be come enthusiastic over an enterprise which. If carried to completion, must certainly affect the rates of freight between the Atlantic and Pacific coasts. Even now there Is some, question as to whether low rates and equality of service to all on the Panama rail mad may not reduce trans continental rates. Orders have been is sued directing- equality of service and rates to all and also a reduction . of rates. But so congested Is the railroad bv transDorta- tion of material for tue Canal commission, and. " 'nffup'-d U the tf fJ"'?.. and lf"st' cau' 1 possible now to sav what w traffic by quar- hat it is im ... thl ., . . ...d ;w iv wiibi will o ine eiiei.i of this policy under the conditions which we hope. .to nmk normal when all the founded reporta concerning friction be- "ii tnose Having authority In the canal work. In intimations or Irregularities and frauds and favoritism In contracts with out any evidence whatever to Justify sus picion, and generally In the constaut aug gestlon of a presumption that the expendi ture of millions in building the canal must Involve what Is called "graft." Doubtless congressional Investigations will ba held from time to time. Doubtless they ought to be held to assure, the public; but it they are to be permitted to delay the work on the canal and to par alyse the energy of these upon whom the burden of pushing the work must fall, then they will be productive of evil and will be come exactly what many private interests would be glad to have them become, the grave of all the high hopes for a trans lMihuiian ounal. The American people will not permit such a caairophe. Keeping u the Interest. As L have already said. I have Just re turned from a trip to the Isthmus. I was there a year ago, and so long as tbe work remains under my supervision I shall deem It my duty to visit the isthmus once a year. I shall do this not only to keep in formed of the work in actual progress, but because I believe it stimulates the subordl nte In an enterprise like this to have It felt that their work is under the liumedi ate observation of the suirvlory power, yd that what they are doing ia a matter of interest and observation for everybody from the president down. 1 recall that while at the meeting of the Cincinnati Commercial club last year pro posal was made that a ateainer be chart ered to visit Panama this winter, and I agreed to be on ot the party, or at least to tune my annual visit so that 1 should be on the isthmus when you were.

Purdy. assistant attorney general said: "It happened that these Injunction suits were pending In the Western district of Missouri instead of the northern district of Illinois or some other district. We ahould have been only too glad to have filed a similar Information In the Inter national Harvester case at Chlcsigo had we been permitted to do so. We were forced to come to this federal district or to dis regard entirely the violation of your hon or's Injunctions to prevent the imntlnr of rebates, or to proceed directly agalnstfj the railroads "under the Elklns' aet.

Mr Purdy In combatting the motions to quash the information, says: "In a court of equity the relief must be as broad us the law," he declared.

FAVORS SEA. LEVEL CANAL Board of Consulting; Engineers by lorge Majority Arrives at a Decision. WASHINGTON. Nov. 18.-The board of coiibulting engineers of the Isthmian Canal commission todny declared itself by a largo majority In favor of a 'sea level canal. The conclusion was reached after a long and careful study oLthe project. Since the beginning of September the board haa held meetings and In special sub-committees had studied the plana for a sea level canal with the greatest care, A trip to the isthmus waa made to enable the members to form a better idea of the physical dim cultlos which had to be considered. The members of the board are men of the greatest reputation In their lino of work. France Germany and Holland have sent their most eminent specialists at the request of the American government. "From the beginning it waa evident that a majority waa In favor of the sea level banal. Their point of view waa that even if. It cost, mora than a. lock canal and would take longer In the building', It won Id ulti mately be of greater use as it will enable ships to make a much shorter' trip than If they were obliged to go through three or four locka. On the other hand waa a min ority which wanted to gee the canal built In aa short a time aa possible and with the least cost, declaring that a few 'hours ldnger for the trip through the Isthmus made but little or no difference. One of the members gave thla explanation for his way of voting: "It may be that several of us will not see the sea level canal finished In our life time as It will take considerable longer than ten years. But then we have the satisfaction to know that for all the generations to follow we have made the shortest and most practical way of communication between the Pacific and Atlantic, and aa long as we had to decide on a question for all time,' we do not think that a few years more or less makes a very important difference. That la the way our party thought about It and whatever may be said; In favor or against It we have, after the most careful study, given an opinion aa we saw our way to do It."
