Sherman has been re-elected to the United States senate from Illi- nqls by a plurality over Roger C. Sulli­ van of 14,991. The final totals, as complied by the Associated Press gave: 8hcrmanT^£ .T.. .186,229 Sullivan uV .871,238 Robins ; .... 197,604 Sherman's plurality „ 14,991 Senator Sherman's election is claimed by the Republican state com­ mittee, which received returns from or<er the state practically identical with the flgures reported by the Asso­ ciated Press. The official canvass of the Chicago •ote was started in the office of the board of election commissioners, watched and supervised by as formid­ able a contingent of legal representa­ tives and technical experts as ever gaarded a count in Cook county. At the rate of speed which has been established the official vote in Cook county will not be known for at least ten days, and the final canvass to be made in Springfield by the state board of canvassers will not be determined in less than two weeks. The entire Republican ticket has been elected, including Andrew Ros- sel for state treasurer, F. G. Blair for state superintendent of public instruc­ tion, Charles W. Vail for clerk of the supreme court, B. M. Chlperfleld and J. McCan Davis for congressmen at large, with the probabilities that the three Republican candidates for trus­ tees of the University of Illinois have won out. The Democratic state candidates ran an average of 35.000 votes behind Sul­ livan in. Cook county, while the Repub­ licans ran along with Sherman down- state. Complete returns in the ten con­ gressional districts in Cook coun­ ty gave the Republicans an even break in the division of places. In the downstate districts Cannon, McKlnley and Rod en berg have won back their former places. The delegation will be constituted as follows: At large... Burnett M. Chlperfleld* R. At large J.

Suffragists Sign Tentative Truce. Chicago sufferagists have signed a tentative treaty of peace. They are pledged to harmony until the meeting of the National American Woman Suf­ frage association in Nashville on No­ vember 12, when it is expected the differences will break out anew be­ tween Mrs. Medill McCormick, chair­ man of the congressional committee, and Mrs Grace Wilbur Trmit, the new­ ly re-elected president of the Illinois Equal Suffrage association. Both Mrs. Trout and Mrs. McCor­ mick denied that there would be any further airing of their differences in Illinois for the present. The former issued a statement denying that na­ tional delegates had been appointed by the newly elected board. "Following the adjournment of the convention of the Illinois Equal Suf­ frage association," Mrs. Trout's state­ ment says, "the state board held a ses­ sion and received the formal report of the elections committee. The board then adjourned after which the guests remained to dinner and had an inform­ al conference over state matters. No delegates were appointed. Delegates will be appointed according to the amendment in the constitution." Mrs. McCormick Is preparing a re­ port on the work of the congressional Committee to be read at the national convention, and will leave for Nash­ ville Sundav. Dr. Anna Howard Shaw passed through Chicago on her way to Wash­ ington from the West. It Is rumored that Mrs. Trout would be Doctor Shaw's most formidable rival at the coming national convention, as the lat­ ter now faces opposition from two de­ cidedly anti-Shaw factions, one led by the Congressional union and the other by insurgents from Massachusetts headed by Mrs. Maud Wood Park. Chemical Laboratory at U. of I. Another item has been added by the European war to the credit side of this country's ledger. This is chem­ istry. Germany, capital of i:he world of chemistry, is not only temporarily isolated but its huge manufacturing plants and its scientific laboratories seem destined to remain idle for some time. It is considered probable that German science, requiring as it does a large investment without possibility of Immediate financial return, will take years to regain its former position of world pre eminence. At this critical moment the United States .akes an important step for­ ward in chemistry. This is the erec­ tion of the new chemical laboratory at the University of Illinois. The cor­ nerstone of the elaborate building has just been laid. The building, when completed, will be five stories in height and will cover ground Bpace more than 200 feet square. It is on the university campus at Urbana. When the original chemical labora­ tory was built at the university there were 238 students in that department and ten instructors. New Corporations.

When the Ottoman empire entered the war it had great numbers of troops massed along the border. HUMAN INTEREST STORIES FROM THE WAR ZONE New York--Many human interest stories of the war are to be found in the German newspapers ar­ riving in New York. Among them are the following: A soldier in a hospital in Heidelberg recounted that helplessly wounded he lay in a trench, when to his surprise he saw his brother ride by. "We greeted each " other affectionately and I asked him to transport me to the nearest Red CTOSB station. He an­ swered, however: *1 have a military command and duty Is above brotherly love.' Then he spurred his horse and rode away." In an article in the Berliner Tage- blatt Prof. Paul Natorp of Marburg university tells of a German soldier who was traveling from Belgium to go to the seat of war in East Prussia. He was accompanied by a little Bel­ gian girl, an orphan, whose parents had been shot as "snipers." The Qer- man soldier, childless, was bringing the little girl to his wife and was then going on to East Prussia to fight Rus­ sia. Prince'Eitel Friedrich, second son of the kaiser, at the battle of St. Quentin seized the drum of a fallen soldier, beat it and cried: "Forward, comrades, forward." At Mayence all the reservists could not be accepted for the army, but all were so eager to go that the matter was decided by a footrace which took place in the armory. ALL ANIMALS SLAIN FOOT-AND-MOUTH DISEASE NOW SAID TO BE UNDER CONTROL AT CHICAGO. DEFENDS POPULAR REMEDIES SHOW CATTLE ARE ISOLATED Value of Stock Slaughtered la Put at $74,000--Federal and State Govern­ ments to Stand Cost--Epidemic Is Checked. Chicago, Nov. 10.--With the excep­ tion of about seventy-five cases among the 800 prize dairy show cattle iso­ lated in the feeding stables near the International Amphitheater, there is not a case of hoof-and-mouth disease left at the Chicago stockyards. The last cases were eradicated when 262 cattle and 160 hogs were shot and their carcasses thrown into the quick­ lime pits. For the first time since the stockyards opened, there was not a liv­ ing steer, hog or sheep inside the yards. Dr. S. E. Bennett, government in­ spector in charge, declared the epi­ demic was absolutely under control In Chicago. His men, working with the state veterinarian, will go out into the state to begin the slaughter Of in­ fected dairy herds. The first work will be done in the south end of Kane county, where about 500 animals on seven farms will be shot and their carcasses destroyed. The value of the animals slaugh­ tered and buried in quicklime since the epidemic was found at the stock­ yards is $74,000* $52,000 for the cattle and $22,000 for the hogs. The federal government will pay half of this sum, and Governor Dunne of Illinois has promised to ask the legislature to ap­ propriate sufficient money to pay the other half. Doctor Bennett said the disease was completely checked here, and that it soon would be under control in all the states except Montana. It Is feared that if it spreads to the ranges, it may not be stamped out for years. He had received no word from there yes­ terday, but said government inspec­ tors were carefully guarding the train- load of animals In which the infection was discovered and Watching for any new outbreak along the line. No new states have been quaran­ tined, but fresh outbreaks were re­ ported down state. About fifty coun­ ties in Illinois are under quarantine. Two herds were destroyed in Wis­ consin, and the state veterinarian of Colorado issued an order barring all live stock from entering the state un­ less the carB are fumigated and the animals passed by a state or govern­ ment. inspector. He also asked the authorities of Utah, Wyoming, New Mexico, Arkansas and Oklahoma to adopt similar precautions. DRUMM0N0S CAN WED AGAIN Final Decree in Seneational Case Signed by Judge Monroe at Los Angelee. Los Angeles, Cal-. Nov. 9.--The final decree of divorce in the sensational Drummond case was signed by Judge Monroe, leaving both John N. Drum­ mond. Jr., son of the tobacco magnate, and ills former wife, Mrs. Evors Drum­ mond, free to again marry. They were married in Chicago July 11, 1908, Mrs. Drummond being formerly Miss Evors Heyer, daughter of Willis Meyer, prom­ inent Chicago business man.

Balliett. o t A I Buffalo, N. Y., at the convention of tha < ^ ^ Advertising Affiliation at Detroit .".j Mr. Balliett is a director of the PrtN prietary Association of America, which includes in its membership two hun­ dred firms which make the popular prepared medicines of America, Mr. Balliett pointed out that It la f * ..•> ; Vr.V .W7 . \! "i'41 'A the duty of the newspaper publisher .-ty to refuse the advertising of any fake or fraudulent medicine, just as it ia r -fV his duty to refuse any fake or fraudu- i lent advertising, but it is not right ti* shut down on all medical advertising because there haVe been some fakers, any more than it would be right to refuse to publish all department store advertising because certain storea v have made a practice of lying about : bargain sales. ^ Disease and death are mysteries 'f'" ^ People who are perfectly well ara r ^ skeptical. They laugh at the t!m» - worn patent medicine joke, just aM they laugh, again and again over tha I f } * --"The operation was a success but the patient died." This so-called ha>* mor has perhaps hurt the medicine business with well people, but whea the hitherto healthy man feels a se­ vere pain or illness, he Immediately wants medicine, and will bless the cure whether it be at the hands of a regular doctor, a homeopath, an osteflt. path, a Christian Scientist or patent medicine. There 1b nothing deadly than disease; nothing honorable than to cure it. ; "-'.n :, ;f • J Mr. Balliett refuted the Idea sought to be spread about that patent medi^ cines are unpopular by showing thqtf from 1900 to 1912 the amount of pr#> pared medicines consumed in Americla increased from $100,000,000 to $16% 000,000 annually. He showed that. though the American Medical Assocl> ation is trying as an organization as exterminate so-called patent me«ft cines, the family doctor, individual^, is not fighting them but prescribing them. He estimated that 40% of the prescriptions written by doctors today include proprietary medicines. The writings of Dr. Harvey W, W|> ley, he said, have also aimed to da> stray confidence in proprietary med|> cines; but that Dr. Wiley's ideas are not infallible is shown by cases when his analyses were entirety wrong. Mr. Balliett mentioned a case where, witfc all the power of the Government, ba fought a preparation as being danger ous to health, and was inglorious!} walloped. There has been SDread\the idea that a clever faker can mix. a few useless ingredients and. by smart advertising, sell tons of It and win sudden wealth^ whereas, as a matter of fact, the mectV cine business is notoriously difficult, and, where there has been one success at it, there have been a hundred fai£ ures. Any medicine which has no merit cannot live, because persona who are duped into buying it once will not buy it again, and the profit fron. advertising a medicine can only coma from repeat sales to the same, satis tied people. Therefore, any medicine which has been on the market for a number of years, and is still adve* tised, must have merit behind it te afH count for its success. . ? In conclusion Mr. Balliett declare<|,|;* that no newspaper is doing Justice tat ^ ^ its readers in the matter of medical^ . •$; or ether advertising, unless it invest*- ^ gates, no. only the wording of the a-fc; vertisement offered for publicatioai ' "1 but the merits of the article adve* .. ^ t l s e d .
