MEDICINE MEN.

ST. PAUL. June 7-The American med
morning. After some routine business
DR.. Chas. Denison, of Colorado, offered a
statement, the substance of which was
| that misapprehensions existed in the minds
of many people as to the liberty of action
authorized by the association in the treat
ment of diseases that rational medicines
demand absolute freedom in selecting and
administering them, and that there is moth
association prohibiting the use of any
known or honorable means to combat dis
ease, and that it welcomes every new dis
covery in healing science; that it therefore
rejects the term "allopathes" as untrue
designation, and concludes with sly slap
at homeopathy as unscientific in
principle and dangerous in practice, and
referred to the judicial council. DR..
]. A. Oclotong Louisville, delivered
an address on medicine, giving
investigation of the germ theory. DR..
Henry O'Mary delivered an address on the
obstacles and Diseases of Women" and
illustrated his subject with a solar micro
scope. The judicial council reported as
follows in regard to the judicial socity in
the state of New York: "In regard to the
reception of delegates from the New York
State Medical Society. we having carefully
examined the code of ethics adopted by
the New York State Medical Society at its
annual meeting on FEBRUARY, 1882, as
furnished by the secretary of said society
we find in said revised code provisions es-
sentlally differing from and in conflict with
the code of ethics of this society and there
fore. in accordance with the provision of
the nineth bylaw, this association decide
unanimously that said New York State
Medical Society is not entitled to represen-
tation by delegates in the American Medi-
cal Assertion This action is final and was
received with great applause.

A DUEL BETWEEN TWO EDITORS.

New ORLEANS, June IA duel was
fought at the slaughter house this morning
between Major Burke, of the Times Demo
erut, and c. III. Parker, editor of the Plea
gune Pistols were used, and at the fifth
shot Burke was shot through the thigh.
The wound is not considered dangerous.
The trouble was on account of an article
in the Picagune on June I'd, under the
caption, "How about the general fund.-
To which Major Burke, who is state treas
urer, took exception. On Friday last he
sent challenge to Parker and the latter
accepted. His representatives, Geo. L.
Hall and James A. Renshaw, named Mis-
siSsippi rifles, while Burke's seconds,
James d. Houston and Major Augustin,
fixed the distance at 203 PAGES, but finally
agreed to use duelling pistols at 90 PAGES.
The ground selected was St. Bernard's s
parish near the slaughter house. Burke's
friends won the toss up for position.
Everything was in readiness. At the
word the weapons were discharged almost
simultaneously, but neither man was hurt.
After an unsuccessful attempt to COM
promise second round was fired, which
was also harmless. Another attempt to
harmonize was then made The third shot
was barren Of result A long parley fol-
lowed-Burke's friends demanding that
Parker acknowledge the bravery, and per-
sonal, and official integrity of Burke,
which they claimed Parker had impugned
in a series of articles in the PicGyune-
which was unsuccessful. In the fourth
round neither were hurt. At the fifth fire
Burke was shot through both legs, above
the knee, and would have fallen but was
caught by his second. After the formal
ties the parties separated, Burke being
conveyed to his residence and Parker GO
ing to the PGcayatae office The witnesses
agree that the principals showed remark
able courage and GOODNESS and that the
affair was conducted in accordance with
the code. Burke this evening is resting
quietly. and no serious trouble from the
wound is apprehended.

CONGRESS-.

WASHINGTON, June 7.-White desired to
call up the report of the ways and means
committee, upop his resolution asking for
information relative to Commissioner
Raum's recommending the passage of the
Dunnel bill TO extend the bonded period
ON distilled spirits.
The speaker replied that the report had
not been returned from the hands of the
printer.
Mr.. White suggested that it could not be
returned until the whiskey ring let it, but
subsequently diselaimed any intention OF
rejecting upon the printer.
The house then went into committee of
the whole and resumed the deficiency APP
preparation bill
Sparks apologized to Cox for remarks
made yesterday while the debate on bill
was going on. Cox accepted the apology
in the same kind of feeling in which it had
been rendered.
Sparks, of IlIiois, moved that the elm
mate clause appropriating $4,000 for
amy transportation for the fiscal year of
1909 ne DeiItSSu 6A1b bAo HAZE NIudsi 1Oa
master General had been honest but remiss
in attempting to obtain cheaper transpor-
tation. Rejected.
Holman moved to strike out the appro-
priation of 1925, 600 for the payment for
army transit lawfully due such land grant
railroads ss have not received aid in gov
ernment bonds Townsend, of Illinois,
supported the motion and contended that
the land grant roads especially the North
ern Pacific, had already received bounty
enough from the government. He favored
the declaring of lands ganted but not earn
ed by railroad companies forfeited. The
motion to strike out was lost but it was
agreed TO take yea and nay vote in the
house.
Blount moved to strike out appropria-
tion of $150,00o for bureau construction

naval policy of congress. The govern
ment the past six years had appropriated
ten or twelve millions annually for the ma
w and not a single gun had been put
anoat during that time Springer, of Illi-
nois, inquired who had spent money.
Kobeson thanked God every ship that now

uon. Mcmillan inquired who was respon.
slble for vessels now rotting at docks.
"oneson said they were started to put
