A crusade against tha spread of tuberculorts among the employes of the government service in Washington was today directed by President Roosevelt, who Issued an order to the heads of all departments, giving them explicit instructions os to their duties in combating the disease. After referring to the report of the committee appointed by an executive order on December T, 1805, to prepare n plan for the prevention of tuberculosis in government offices and workshops, the order directs that the head of each executive department in Washington shall see thatthe printed rules prepared by the comtee ahull bo placed in each federal ldlng under hie control; that the names of persons in his department who are afflicted with tuberculosis be ascertained and n copy of the rules be each: that preseated-t- o ance of the rules may, at the dlrcre-tioof the department head, be considered Just cause for separation from service. The order further provides that whenever there la doubt with regard to any person in the government service os to whether said person ia afflicted with pulmonary tuberculosis an order must be issued for an esnmina-tio- n at one of the government laboratories and that n certificate showing the reault of said examination must be presented to the department. If a government laboratory is not acces-- j alble, the labora Lory investigation shall be made at government expense. The order uirects the surgeon general of tho army, the surgeon general of the navy and the surgeon general of the public health and marine hospital service to cause n thorough ai nitary inspection of the public buildings and workshops under their respective deportments, and authorises them to detail from their respective medical services a sanitary board or boards for I this purpose. These boards are required to make reports to the surgeon general of their respective afervicea who must bring their reports before the oommlttee appointed by executive order on December 7. 1806, the latter committee to transmit n full report with recommendations to the preslaenL ' la tbe first case of alleged forgery that $7,500 is Indictment chargee u entered in the cash book as paid Nfeholls ft Bacon, attorneys of P.

Attorney General Moody said: Some weeks ago a representative of that paper called on me and said that information was in the possession of that paper tending to. show that large rebates on the transport at lor of sugar had been given to the American Sugar Refining company by the trunk lines of railroads running out of New York city, and asking him if the department of Justice cared to use the information in legal proceedings. An examination of the matter showed rlearly that it waa highly important, and tended to show the giving and receiving of large money rebates. The subject was brought to the attention of Mr. Btimson, who had been selected by the president na dial riot attorney for the southern district of New pare their estimate each year according to the ordsr and arrangement of the acta ef the year proceeding.
