SEVERE ON MACKENZIE.
DR. Gerhardt's Report ON the Case Of
the Late Emperor Frederick.

BERLIN, July Io.-Dr. Gerhardt, acting
under the directions OF the other Ger
man doctors who attended the late Emperor
Frederick, has drawn up report stating that
early in 1887 the German physicians pronounced
the disease from which he was suffering to be OF
cancerouS nature. They decided to open the
larynX and preparations were made to perform
the operation on May 20, when DIR. Mackenzie
saw Frederick and declared that the disease
was not cancer and opposed an operation. DIR.
Prot. Virchow examined. but there was 40 proof
that the piece was taken from the actually affected
part. Dr.. Gerhardt examined Fredericks throat
after the piece had been removed. and accused
DR.. Mackenzie OF removing piece
from the unaffected part OF the throat instead Of
from the diseased part. DIR. Mackenzie replied
that 1t was possible he had done so. The German
doctors protested against DR.. MackenZie's treat
ment throughout. Professor Won Bergman cor
roboraUeS DIR. Gerhardts statements, and gives the
reasons why he lost confidence In DR.. Mackenzie.

WHERE TO BEGIN.

The linseed oil trust has raised the
price of that article 81 per cent; there is
a duty on linseed oil of about 90 per cent.
The glass trust, not content with the
tariff duty of IS to 147 per cent, has
resolved to advance The prices of glass.
They have been protected against foreign
competition but the artificial prices so
produced have only whetted the appe-
tites of these manufacturers for greater
profits. They combine into trusts so
that they may have all the power of a
monopoly, to dictate prices without re-
gard to the law of supply and demand.
Every house and sign painter in the
country, every builder must feel the
effect in one of two WAYS. Either his
profits must be decreased, or if he raises
the price of his labor and enterprise he
must lose many job he might otherwise
have. Those who do not feel pressing
need for their services or have little to
spare for painting or glazing. will put off
until cheaper times the improvements
they contemplated.
The action of these manufacturers in
forming combinations to squeeze money
out Of the pockets of consumers must
draw the attention of Congress power
fully to them at this juncture. 1t seems
to be generally agreed throughout the
country among those discussing the sub
ject that when Congress begins to re-
