 Hoover VIII Set Aside.
 WAsHlNGroN, Nov. 26.-The Pan American Congress had Senor Zegarra, of Peru, as presiding officer in the ab- sence of Secretary Blaine. A favorable report from tho Committee on Creden- tials of the Brazilian delegation led to some discussion. Dr. Nin, of Uruguay, wanted to know whether the credentials emanated from the Emperor or from tho new Government of Brazil.
 Senor Romero, chairman of the com mittee, stated that the credentials orig inally came from the Emperor. but sub sequently, and after the recent change in the Government in Brazil. had been indorsed by the new Government, and the delegates had been fully cm pow cred to act for the Provisional Govern lncnt. This explanation seemed satis- factory to all the delegates, and the report was adopted unanimously.
 The Congress thon proceeded to the election of secretaries. F. G. Pecira and IA Ramson Whitohouse were nom mated by the foreign and homo dele gates respectively, and were elected to those positions. Mir. Whitehousc is 2 citizen of New York, and is at preseiR Secretary of Legation at tho City of Mexico. Mr. Perira is also from New York, and is connected with the Span ish-American Commercial Union in that rity.
 The Congress then proceeded to the consideration of the report of the Com mittec on Rules, taking up Rule S., where it had left off last Friday. Little or no progress was made when the Con- ference adjourned to } D. m. tomorrow.

AN ARMY OF VOTES
An Alliance Between the
 Knights and Farmers.
PoWDERLYFAvoRs THE SCHEME
Committees of Both Bodies to Meet at St.
 Louis Next Week.

United They VIII Have 3,0OO,OoO Votes-
 the Two Bodies Could Control the
 Presidency, and It May Mean the Birth
 ofa New Political Party.
 PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 26.-Mr. Pow derly says that in his opinion some form of consolidation between tho Knights of Labor and the Farmers Alliance will be accomplished at an early date. The Knights favor 1t heartily, and he has good reason to think that the Alliance is very favorably disposed toward tho scheme On Dec. 8 General Secretary Hayes and MT. Wright, of tho Knights Executive Board, will meet a commit tee of the Alliance at St. Louis to dis cuss tho matter.
 "The aims and interests of the two organizations" says Mir. Powderly, 'are the same. United, they will have about 5000, 600 votes-an army so vast that politicians will not dare spurn it.
 For over one year we have been TO- ceiving letters from prominent mon in the Farmers Alliance asking us to con- sider the practicability of an amalga nation. The officers of the Knights of Labor will readily throw up their offices and be subsidiary workers in the anal gamation.
 May Control tho Presidency.
 No sensible man can disparage the magnitude and importance of such a step. It might mean that tho two or ganizations, when combined, will wield such political power as to control the Presidential chair. There arc, in round mum bers, 800, 900 mon in the ranks of the Knights of Labor, while the Farmers Alliance, which Is merely in its Infancy, has over 2,O0o. 900 members. l think that if the amalgamation is brought about, the American Fedora tion, with it's half a million followers; the Brotherhood of Locomotive -En- gineers, with It's many thousands, and other great labor bodies will want to be merged. It will probably mean the birth of a new political party which will have sufficient strength to control tariff and other legislation.'

Alcohol as Medicine.

The popular interest in the question
of alcohol seems to render it desirable
that the position Of physicians who
use this agent in disease should be
clearly defined. Taking fever as an ex-
ample, physicians give alcohol simply
as = readily-oNidiZable carbohydrate and
not for what is commonly known as an
alcoholic stimulant effect. Although,
in certain cases 1t may be given very
largely, It is stopped or the dose is d.
minished whenever the slightest indica-
tion is apparent. II would be difficult
TO find an instance of the alcoholic habit
directly referable TO the Use of alcohol
in fever; and. indeed, as far rs the habit
is concerned, it woull he much more
logical 10 condemn opium than alcohol
No physician would be willing 10 ell
inmate opium from his materia medica.
Those who refuse to administer alco-
hoI under any circumstances deprive
themselves of an agent that is often
most potent for good, and must occa-
sioually sacrifice life to what the ma
iOrity of intelligent physicians regard al
u prejudice

The interesting communication made
by Drs. German See and Gley at the
Academy of Sciences in February last
on the results with antipyrIn on dia-
bette patients induced NJ. Panas to try
the efficacy of antipyrin in the treat
ment of diabetis in connection with cat
aract. Two men were treated by him,
one man aged 3S, affected with bila-
teral cataract of two years standing.
and who was at the same time a dia-
bette; the other was woman of 13
years, of delicate constitution, dla-
bette for six years, very nervous, and
who presented a double cataract, that
in the left eye being complete. After
the adm 'nistration of antipyrin in dos eS
of forty-five grains per day during one
week, the sugar fell from five drachms
to ons drachm- 1t was under these
conditions that NJ. Panas proceeded TO
operate for cataract, at the same time
recommending the patient 10 continue
to take thirty grains of antipyTin p +
day. From these cases NJ. Panas cor
cluded: ]. That antipyrin posses Sed
an antfglycogenic action both prompt
and efficacious. =. That it has sue
ceeded in those cases in which neither
the diet nor the drugs employed had
succeeded in reducing the proportion of
the glucose below a given quantity.
3. That for 4 TO be efficacIous it is
necessary that the daily dose at first
should consist of forty-five grains. 4.
| That the effect became evident even
when the patients were allowed to COIL
| tinue a moderate proportion of farina-
ceous substances
