Blood TRANSMISSION.
LAWYER INyENTs AN IMPORTANT MED.
ICAL INSTRUMENT

A series of experiments were per
formed Tuesday at Milan, small town
10 the southern part OF Michigan, that
are thought to make certain a great
advance in one branch of medical
treatment. Mr.. Eugene Allen has per.
fected an instrument which he has
been working at for number of years,
for the TRANSMISSION of blood directly
from one animal or person into another,
and 1t bids fair to overcome the only
heretofore existing obstacle to the sue
cess OF this operation, the clotting of
the blood and dangers following from
injection of such clots. In the expert
meats a sick sheep Has placed at one
end of the instrument and healthy
one at the other, and very visible
change for. the better was the result in
the sick one. The other was then al.
lowed to bleed as long az blood would
flow, and was resusciated by blood
taken from the calf. There were pres
ent Professors Vaughn and Langley of
the medical department of the state
university, and four or five local ply
sicians. The professors took an instru.
ment back to Ann Arbor., 1t will
probably be introduced in \ hospital
there. The inventor is M&yer by
profession and enjoyed fair practice
until i'll health compelled him to par
TALLY give up work.

A Proposed Canadian Tour in
Parnell's Interest

ST. PAUL, October 31.-Michael Davitt,
the Irish agitator, arrived here yesterday.
To Pioneer Press reporter he said: "Since
the Chicago convention my health has
failed and 1 went up into Northern Michi-
gan to get the benefit of the colder climate
and was greatly benefited. From there,
l went to California, the Northwest Terri
tories, Colorado, Nebraska and here, stop
ping at various cities and talking
on the Irish question. At Omaha l
received a cablegram from friends
in the movement in Ireland asking
my immediate return, but cabled to-day
from st. Paul that desired to remain in
the United States and Canada until the
engagements have made are fulfilled, and
unless the case is very urgent will not re-
turn Immediately. am anxious to go to
Canada to refute statements about Mr.
Parnell and myself, made by emissaries OF
the Loyal Legion.
Mr.. Davitt spoke to
AN AUDIENCE OF 1000
at Market Hall to-day. He said he had
found on his trip remarkable growth Of
sympathy with the Irish movement since
he was in America eight years ago. Mr..
parnell's aggressive but dignifed policy
was the best way of conducting the move
ment. Parnell's fight at Westminster
has made it impossible for English parties
to govern Ireland. His object in
this country was to convince
his own countrymen that their
fight to gain home rule was correct, and
to deepen the sympathy of the American
people in the movement. He then out
lined the plans of the national league for
the government and ultimate improve
ment of Ireland when it comes into pow
er, asserting that they would be accept
able alike to Irish Protestants and Catho-
lies. He charged that the Belfast riots
were organized by Lord Churchill to con
vince the world that the Irish PrOtestants
would forcibly resist Irish home rule.
Mr.. Davitt addressed another large audi
ence at Minneapolis last night.
