Logan and Memorial Day,

Junius Simonds, for time q secretary
of General Logun's. gives this account of
the relation of General Logan to The
first celebration OF memorial day: The
day belongs 10 Mrs. Henry s. kimball,
OF West Philadelphia, Pa. The suggcs-
tiou was made by hcr in 1s6s to General
John A. logan, then comuauder.in-
Chief OF the Grand Army of the Republic,
Mr.. and Mrs. kimball was old friends OF
General Logan. On their return from II
Southern tour Mrs. kimbull wrote
to General Logan stating that she
has particularly noticed the Southern
women decorating the graves OF their
dead fallen in battle; and suggested to
him tliut, us the commauder.in.Ch eli ief of
the Grand Army of tile Republic lie
should have our heroic soldiers. whose
lonely graves were many, scattered, and
unmarked, remembered in the same
beautiful way. The general was deeply
impressed with the idea. Soon after
ward lie wrote Mrs. kimball thanking
her for the suggestion, and stating that
hc felt that such touching tribute TO
his dead comrades would un-
doubtCdly meet with general favor.
After carefully rcflocting upon how he
should give the matter practical shape,
lac stated his idea to General Chipman,
of the Grand Army Of the Republic, and
requested him To formulate an order.
This order, modified and enlarged by
General Logan himself, was issued to
the Grand Army of the Republic as
Order No. III" and May 80, 1858 was
named as tie day it should 20
into effect. The order WAS generally
well received throughout the coui.
try and practically observed by thc
Grand Army of the Republic, greatly to
General Logan's satisfaction, as evil

INTrRNATIoNAL COMMERCE.
Recommendations of the Commercial
Conference at San EIancisco.


SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 30.---In the COM
mcrcial conference to-day the reports of
the committees made yesterday were
adopted with some amendments. In
the maritime report reference 10 free
ships was stricken out and in its stead
was adopted Il resolution recommending
that the French bounty system be
adopted.
The report fnvoring Pacific ocean
Cable was adopted.
The committee appointed to confer
with Chairman Cooley, of the inter
state commerce commission, reported
his views regarding the application of
the Interstate law to the Canadian I'a-
ciilc railroad, or the abolition of the
bonding system. Two lengthy reports
were submitted, the majority decming 1t
unwisc at this time to urgc congress to
take action in the premises; the minor
ty favoring the abolition of the law
granting foreign railways the privilege
of carrying domestic goods to domestic
points. This was discussed at length.
SAN FRANcIsCo, Aug. 3O-At to-day's
session of tho commercial con Inference, n
report favoriug the Pacific ocean cable
was adopted.
The report of the committee on coast
defense presented Yesterday was sub
United, with resolutions urging con-
gress 10 put all harbors and rivers of the
Pacific coast, viz; Puget Sound,
Columbia river, Coos bay, layuina bay,
Humboldt, San Francisco, San Pedro
and San Diego harbors, in
thorough condition of defense.
Adopted. A report f;Ivorilt;
the construction of the Nicaragua canal
was adopted. The next subject under
consideration was that orrailroad traffic,
The committee appointed to obtain the
views of chairman Cooley If the inter
state commerce commission made Il re-
port. Chairman Cooley stated that tho
custom of allowing the transit of bonded
cars into foreign territory was permitted
by the treasury depart ment, and not au-
thorized by statute. lie agrced there
was inequality in the policy which
places American railroads at Il disadvan-
tage in competition with Canadian
roads. Resolutions were presented to
the conference setting forth
that the clause in the Interstate com
merce law relating to long and short
tuge Of the Pacific coast, aud appealing
to congress TO modify or repeal the
clause.
T.. W. Jones introduced series of res
olutionS calling on congress to adopt Il
liberal policy relative TO the Pacific
coast in the matter of dotenscs, light
houses and river and harbor improve
nents.
This concluded the work of the con.
vcntion. A special committee ON per
ment organization will, however, hold a
meeting tomorrow morning.

A yellow Fever Remedy.


Il was announced some time ugo that
u South American physician had discov-
cred that inoculution would prevent
yellow fever lie claimed to have dis
covered the germ of the disease, and an
nounccd that solution thereof, so to
speak, would prevent the disease.
Nothing has been heard of this doctor
or his experiments for some time, but it
is too early to say that he is a humbug
and his methods fraudulent. lie may
be engaged even now, on experiments
that viii be OF .ncalculable benefit to
humanity 80 far rs the yellow scourge is
concerned
Just now, however, another claimant
comes to the front with u specific for
yellow fcvcr This claimant is DR..
james Thorington, who is the physician
and surgeon TO the Panama Railroad
company. DIR. Thorington has resided
at Colon for seven years aud has de-
voted special attention to yellow fever
which prevails on the isthmus at all
seasons of the year
One of the problems of medical science
has been TO find such remedy for the
yellow fever microbe as quinino il known
TO be for the microhe of malaria-that is
to say, remedy that will destroy the
microbc without injurinS the patient.
DR.. Thorington, after making various
CSpcri menist ulsCoNcTcu luhJ cocaine
Possesses the remedial properties when
administered before the case has pro-
gressed too far.
He made this discovery in 1887, and
since that time has had every opport,,-
nifty to confirm his impressions. DIR.
Thorington says that previous to the use
of coacine, black vomit was marked
symptom in the cases of yellow fever
that came under his observation, but
now it never appears in any OF
the cases where cocaine has been en-
.ployed from the start, and lie
declares that this drug rarely fails
TO check the vomit and quiet
the stomach even when TIE patient
has not been seen until the fifh or sixth
day. No toxic symptoms result from
| the use of cocaine in cases of yellow
fever, and DR.. Thoringt n says he has
never seen any other bad sympom.
| from it's use.
All this is important enough to at
| tract attention. The whole thug may
be hoax. Onsthe other hand, it may
be discovery worthy TO rank with TIL,
Jenner.
