CONVICTED OF TREASON.
Henri Rochefort and Count Dillon Held
to be Guilty With Boulanger.

Henri Rochefort and Count Dillon Held
to be Guilty With Boulanger.
PARIS, Aug. a. The Senate court
found Count Dillon and Henri Roche
fort accomplices of Gen. Boulanger in
a felonious attempt against the safety of
the state. 1t also decided, by a vote of
100 to 81. that the acts charged in the in
dictment against the accused in connec-
ton with the presidential crisis in 1887,
constituted q reasonable attempt. Gen.
Campenon, senator for Neuilly Sur
Seine, argued that the charge of embez-
element made against Gen. Boulanger
had been proved. NJ. LIE Roger, presi-
dent of the Senate, and NJ. Margarine,
senator for the Department Of Marine,
argued that the court was incom petent
to try Gen. Boulanger on the charge of
mlsapprOpriation of funds, and that the
charge must be referred to court-mar-
tial.
The court found Gen. Boulanger
guilty on charge Of embezzling public
funds and refused to allow that there
were any extenuating circumstances.
The court then sentenced Gen. Bou-
LANCER, Count Dillon and Henri Roche
fort to be depor'ed to a fortified place.
DEATH LURKS IN THE "EL1xIR."
The Brown-Sequard Compound Alive
) With Bacteria @@s~t.
ST. LOUIS, Mo-, Aug. 14.-Dr. A. B.
Shaw, of this city, who has been MAX
ing microscopic examinations Of Brown
Sequard ''elixir" discovered, while ex-
perimenting Saturday last, that the fluid
was alive with countless bacteria, al
though but three hours had elapsed
since the elixir was prepared. Bacillus
tuberculosis, the bacillus that is
supposed to cause tuberculosis. were
found in great quantity, thousands be-
ing in single drop of the mixture.
Dr. Shaw could arrive at but one con-
clusion, namely, that the glands We're
from sheep infected with the bacilli
Of tubercle, as the mortar and pestle,
and the distilled water had been thor
oughly sterilized before the mixture
was made. DIR. Shaw estimated that in
a drachm OF the injection millions of
these bacilli would have been put into
the system, each one capable of multi
plying itself indefinitely.
