EDDLEMAN'S TRIAL.
Two More Jurors Secured-Five
Hundred Names Drawn.

ATLANTA, GA, Oct. 23.-Two more
jurors in the Eddleman murder case were
secured this morning, after which the court
adjourned until 8 o'clock tomorrow The
two jurors secured to-day are Frank X.
Bliley, an undertaken and embalmer, and
James Mcdaniel, carpenter, who with l..
y. Gibson, who was secured yesterday,
make three that have qualified. In getting
three jurors, ninety-nine have been excused
for cause, ten were struck by the state, and
thirteen by the defense.
To-day Judge Richard H. Clarke, of the
criminal branch of the superior court,
drew out 500 names, and suspension was or
dered so as to cite those jurors to appear to-
morrow. There is apprehension that there
will be considerable trouble in securing a
jury.
Great interest is manifested in the trial.

and scientific men generally Of New

bomb. 1t is something for a President to
make no mistakes. and the French are
pleased to see the Head of the State in the
flesh but NJ. CarnOt cannot make, or even
animate, IL party by his speeches. His
most serious rival, General BOuIanger, is
recruiting health ut ChriStiania in Norway,
not without an idea, it is said, that he
might from thence reach Russia, where,
however, there is no disposition to see him.
His presence has been affirmed in many
places, other men, it would seem, being
taken for hin. This, at least, has been the
case in Spain, where a NJ. BenOuville, be-
lieyetl to be General Boulanger, has been

President Cleveland and Mr.. Harrison,

cleveland seems hostile to immigration in
the abstract, which he declares compels
citizens to accept "wageS which ought
not to satisfy those who claim American
citizenship" The exclusion of immigrants
will in Il few years be the most serious Of
American questions but at present Mr..
Cleveland directs his heaviest battery at
the "RingS," or, as he calls them, Trusts
the combinations of capitalists who mono
poliSe products, like anthracite coal, petrO-
leum, whisky, and sugar. '"The Democra-
tic Farty,' says the President, 'regard
Trusts with unutterable hatred,"-an un-
usually strong phrase from a reserved man.
The elections which occurred in Maine on
Monday are supposed to Indicate that Mr..
Cleveland is safe. They show a majority

dlSprOved is me generaI Ieellng
among psychologists. Through the
microscope and through culture ok.
periinents science has pretty well
mastered the infectious diseases. In
cholera, typhoid, pneumonia and
other infectious diseases proper,
such as tuberculosis, we know the
microbe organism perfectly we'll, but
in typhus, scarlet fever, smallpox
and yellow fever our knowledge is
very incomplete. This is not strange
when you remember that the science
of bacteriology has developed entire
Iy in the last ten years. | think we
should work in the direction of pre-
venting rather than of cure. These
are all preventable Diseases"
DR.. Robert T. Morris, of No. 1873
West Thirty-fourth street, who is
recognized as one Of the soundest
antiseptic surgeons in tne city, and
mas devoted years of study to micro
biology, was greatly interested in the
Herald's story from Paris.
"There is no question that there
are microbes in yellow fever, reason
ing by analogy from other similar
diseases in which we can actually
take hold of the microbes and photo
graph Them" he SAID. sit is even
possible to take an interest in these
microbes from a natural history
standpoint, reasoning, of course, in
the same way. We know hat the
microbes in yell oW fever are heavy,
very heavy, and settle mean the
ground !; that a stream of water or II
fence will frequently bar Their pro-
gress. We know that people living
for a considerable distance a long one
side of IL stream or a fence have had
yellow fever, while the people on
the other side were perfectly safe.
eve know that these microbes
are an independent form of life, for
nothing else has the power of repro
ducing itself. They give off oxygen
like animals, but their bodies are
built Of celluIOse, like plants, which
plncps them in the vegetable
world. These microbes die less en-
silly than more highly organized
animals. If there should be a cat
in u yellow fever infected room that
was being diSinfccted and the cat
should he alive after the iii 8infection
you might reasonably conclude that
the microbes we're alive too. Much
of the disinfection in the South to-
day, you can see, is a delnsion and
Il snare.
"The theory of Dr.. Gebier, as
given in the Herald, may be true.
| see nothing unreasonable or i'm
probable in it 1t may be that the
yellow fever microbes are located in
the intestines and from there extend
through the bloodvesseIs, and that
the products of their decomposed
bodies are absorbed by the blood,
poisoning the patient just as any
mineral poison would"
DR.. Morris concluded by showing
many pictures of microbes. He said
that the microbes in surgery were

bier's theory that the microbe Of yell
low fever differed little from the cho-
lera bacillus and was almost always
found in the intestines provoked uni
versal discussion among the doctors.
II think that Dr.. Gabier is off the
track" said DR.. Herman M. Biggs,
the well known patholOgist Of the
Board of Health, whose exhaustive
studies in bacterIoIogy are familiar to
the profession. "Ihe probabilities
are that yellow fever is more closely
allied to the malarias fevers than to
any other form OF disease, such as in
fictitious diseases proper. There are
certainly no anatomIcal grounds for
supposing that the LESSONS are in the
intestines, and the vomiting, which is
the only pronounced symptom referable
to the aIimentary track, is simply due
to hemorrhage into the stomach and
is only one of the manifestations of
the tendency toward hrmorrhage
which is shown in yellow fever.
'It is probable that the cause Of
the malarial fevers is "a low form Of
life differing considerably from the
bacteria found in the infectious di-
seases, and it is probable hat the
want Of success in finding a microbe
in yellow fever is because il is allied
to this and but little study has been
directed to the subject with naIarial
organism as the controlling theory.
"There is very little evidence that
the yellow fever can be cOmmunicat.
ed directly from person to person. |
doubt that it is possible. It is
likely that the infection comes from
the soil and the surroundings. The
accepted theory of maIarial fever is
that it is contracted from "a miasma
rising from swampy ground. A per-
son cannot be infected by another
person having malarial fever, but if
he goes to the place where the fever
was contracted he is likely to get it.
The infection is in the locality. That
is probably the case with yellow fe-
YER. II is the assumption that best
explains the symptoms.
Nevertheless till we have more
conclusive proof to the contrary, we
should in a sanitary way, act as if
yellow fever were contagious. Nothing
can justify us in taking any risk, how
ever slight or remote.
"Ihere is no doubt at all in my
mind that the cause of yellow fever
is an Independent, low form of life.
[ judge so from the general charac-
ter of the disease. No other theory
would explain the phenomena in cpl
denies. 1t is a sound and well es-
tabIished rule that any epidemic must
have a cause that will reproduce it.
self.
"What do | think of the inocuIa-
ton cure theOry7 Well the basis of
all scientific incubation is a specific
cause which, when used in small
quantities, will produce the disease
and, acting as a first attack, will
give the patient immunity-that is,
in diseases which are not apt to
occur twice in the same person.
